[Really, it's the little things that everyone should be proud of. But especially now, in Mary's case, since there are more patients running towards them from the left side of the hall.
Miyako will slow down if she has to if that means staying between Mary and the patients, but the door is thankfully close enough for them to slip through before the patients catch up. Once they're in the stairwell, Miyako will close them. She glows gold for a split second, power coursing through her body—and then it suddenly vanishes, and there's a look of shock and dismay on her face.
That look doesn't stay long, though, and she grits her teeth before turning to Mary. Even if Mary has already made progress going up, Miyako will still shout out to her.]
We must move quickly. I cannot keep the door closed; all we can do is outpace them.
