There's no time for indecision

They’re in the middle of getting out of the way of the activating beacon they’d just placed when the announcement is made. Immediately, Akira is concerned at the word ‘monster’, because that could mean any variety of things, and here he is, sans Navigator to help him figure them out. Not that he minds a bit of trial and error should it become necessary, but...
“--Temporary respawn workaround: Patched In. Accessing weapons archive to redistribute proper weaponry. Returning reality-defying abilities—”
“ERROR. System: Overloaded. Territory: Insufficient. Abilities must be returned in temporary bursts.”
The words are a danger sign, considering that part of Akira’s ability is in part dependent on secrecy, but before he can even say anything, there is a knife in his hand, a gun at his side, and the flickering presence of his coat and mask on his person. They fully manifest for a moment, and Akira stands, awkwardly tapping the curved toe of his boot against the ground, before it flickers and disappears.
The weapons, however, remain.
“I guess,” he begins, trying not to seem bothered and mostly succeeding, knife twirling idly between his fingers-- just as much a nervous gesture as it is a habitual one. “We should get going toward the nearest safe area.”
He doesn’t want to assume, so he looks at the both of them, blade resting on his shoulder, and cocks his head, curious. “Will the two of you be alright in all this?”
