You make your way to your suit as quickly as you can. The four Shadows battling Morgan notice you, though, and one of them attempts to charge at you, only to be stopped by Morgan as she reaches out with her hand and hauls the Shadow back into the fray. "Oh no you don't…" she growls, allowing you the opportunity to run towards your suit undisturbed.

The two Shadows tampering with your suit turn to look at you as you approach, somewhat surprised at your appearance, so you gesture with your hands and they're suddenly wrapped in chains of energy, binding them to the spot. Feeling a little light-headed from the effort, you shake your head to clear your mind before quickly making your way to your suit, flipping open a panel so that you can enter it quickly.

You manage to climb into your suit and seal it shut just before the Shadows break free of your chains. "Payback," you smile at them and draw your combat knife. Stepping forward, you swing it into the nearest Shadow, slicing through its head neatly. It falls, dissipating as it does so, but you pay it no heed as you drive your combat knife into the second one until it too dissipates. Once that's done, you spare a glance towards Morgan's fight to see how she's doing.

And not a moment too soon. It seems to be going badly on her end.
