"They need to die. What more do you have to know?"

Jin, seeing the numbers that are present, changes his usual tactics. Shattering one of his ice swords, he instead directs the shards produced to skewer more of the enemies, similar to Albus' glass spikes. When some got withing range, Jin does a more standard attack, creating three swords at once. Once he's done, he grabs hold of one of the chains, swiping back and forth with Yukianesa to keep them at arms length.

The ape's assault intensifies, their screeches growing high-pitched and frenzied, before a blur of steel flashes by and half of them simply vanish in a cloud of blood. Sinuous links rattle as one of the chains, as thick around as Iron Tager, moves of its own accord, a serpent of unimaginable length. The head is but an iron barb etched with acid in the shape of a crude smile, jagged teeth eternally gaping. It cocks its head at Albus, as a last few apes desperately try to scramble past him, not even attacking anymore, and then it lunges, a colossal, living harpoon.

There is a cracking noise behind Hazama, and abruptly the roof caves in.

He scowls and turns around. A dust-covered, raggedy hobo bearing a used shovel appears to have fallen through the ceiling. The hobo stands up, brushes itself off, and then blinks at Hazama. "Ah. Salutations." It says, and points the wooden handle of the shovel at him.

Hazama draws his knife and opens his mouth, but the end of the handle falls off, revealing a smooth steel barrel, and he gets shot in the face instead, which rather ruins his moment.
Class. Dig it up, dust it off, hang that shit crooked on an ear. My halo's a land mine rind, amigo.

What.
Albus is throwing shards and hopping back and forth as he combats the apes, but when he sees the flash and the flying blood, he sticks to the wall. He makes a confused grunt when he sees the apes panic.

Then he sees the snake. The shock from the apes was mild in the face of the monstrosity in front of him.

"What the-," Is all he can say, barely a whisper before he bolts away from the wall, narrowly avoiding the monster's lunge. He throws an Udarac Lopta at its head as he reaches the doorway and jumps onto the nearest chain.

It's then that he realizes something.

'If this thing is made out of steel, what the hell is glass going to do to it!?' He inwardly panics to himself. On the outside, he watches the snake for its next move, but beads of sweat dot his forehead from both the minor exertion and the more severe fear.

Jin takes in the situation, and grits his teeth at how easily Hazama was able to lure them into this trap. Still...it wasn't a total loss, especially if they were able to destroy Oroboros, seeing it in it's revealed state. If it could be destroyed, of course. But then...there was really only one way to find out, wasn't there?

Taking his time, Jin finds the best position. As they were, they had no real way of defeating the monster. It came down to taking a stupid chance, and Jin was the only one in a real position where it might be possible.

Wonderful.

Swinging out, Jin forms his crystal strike, and uses it to gain as much momentum and distance before he jumps off, arms desperately trying to grab onto the snake's metal body.
