[Yes! She hit! Alice should... um. There's not nearly enough screaming in pain or outwardly-apparent exorcism going on here. Did it work?
And then something goes wrong, and it's like there's something stabbing right between her eyes. She shrieks for just a moment like she's been injured, but the pain clears almost as rapidly. And yet... she feels off. Like she'd just run a few dozen laps on the track. Just... oddly drained. She sways on the spot, barely catching herself as she digs into the sand. This entire thing didn't make any sense - she hit with that attack. Why did she feel off, all of a sudden? Was there something on Earth that powered the attack that wasn't there all of a sudden?
But that wasn't important now. To start with... she had to get to Rosetta. Her steps dragged as she worked her way over, and it felt so far away... much too far to cover in any reasonable time. Had Alice really been so distant when she'd shot her down? Or was it just that Diamond felt so terribly sluggish now?]
