Prior to Jun making his thoughts loud and clear - even going so far as to let Yuna hear them - she'd been mostly still. Right hand still pressed against the glass, yet it also remained stationary. Relaxed. Never moving nor making an effort to; simply staying in the same pose, very much looking like she was constantly trying to reach out to Hotsuma, trying to comfort him despite being separated from her comrade and ally.
That mindset, however, quickly changed when she heard Jun include her in the ongoings between Hotsuma and himself.
"Now, Hotsuma...There is a way to stop this. Release your power...It calls to you, let it out!"
.... Wait, what?! What the fuck is going on?! Oi, what are you doing to him?!
" .... How is she?" Aki asked the same tech-savvy individual Divine had been speaking with during these experiments. "What stage?"
"Beta, but barely," Aki, Jun, and Divine would hear.
Sure enough, a quick peek down at Yuna's chamber would show her eyes fighting against the anesthesia, trying to open as she literally was starting to work on waking herself up. Her formerly calm pose changed and as Aki saw her fists clench, her eyes narrowed.
... She did exactly as Aki expected and even while still trapped under the water and glass, Yuna began pounding on the prison. Pretty hard, considering water was perfectly capable of slowing the human body's movements and reactions. And the impacts were nothing to sneeze at, either.
In fact, they were becoming increasingly stronger with each failed attempt, which made Aki actually do something she hadn't had to in quite some time. Act.
"I've got this," she muttered, more to Divine than anyone else, as she put her hands down atop the chamber and began actually focusing.
No fair. Aren't we working with you?! WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS TO US?!
Even with Aki's efforts, the struggles didn't stop. They continued, only seeming to get more desperate each time ... implying that maybe Yuna had started to beat Hotsuma in waking up. Potential wise, anyway, and even possibly conscious.
She's ... actually ... putting up quite the fight with me ... Aki relayed, omitting only Hotsuma and the scientist from the conversation. If she's anything similar to me, we may need to ... give her something. A restraint of sorts, like the one I have in my hair most of the time.
It was a precaution given to her by Divine himself. Without it ... well ... Aki's powers would be in a very dangerous state, all the time. And that could very well lead to an array of unfortunate circumstances. And in this very moment, that may even mean Yuna being forced into a comatose state, and that was if Aki managed to get a grip on herself. Otherwise, she would most likely die without the same restraint she'd spoken to Divine about. Simply because she was that strong and capable.
"Fuck," Aki growled, now panting slightly as Jun's torture shifted from Hotsuma to Yuna. "I ... don't think this is the best of ideas, Jun-san ... "
... But ... he'd already started. And given she was doing her absolute best to focus on keeping Yuna from breaking out and engaging any of the members in a fist fight, she couldn't stop Jun from using his abilities. It definitely wouldn't halt Aki from giving him an irked glare though.
NOOOOOOOOOO!
Even with the mercy Jun was including, he was still making the sensation happen. Which thus meant it still hurt, very much so.
WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH ALL OF YOU?! Yuna added, actually whimpering.
"She's at Gamma brain wave stages!"
"Then increase her dosage!" Aki hissed.
"But ... "
"DO IT!" Aki demanded, added hastily, "I may not be Divine-sama, but I'm barely below him in rank! You will listen to me as if I were him! Increase her anesthesia dosage! NOW!"
"Understood," she finally heard, followed by some buttons quickly being pushed.
WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU ALL DOING?! STOP!
Finally, the pounding against the glass did begin to weaken. Simultaneously though, it would be noticed that some of the surface did now wear weak but easy to spot cracks. And even if she was physically strong enough to do so, it wasn't likely she'd used only her prowess. The faintest hints of what Psychic potential she did possess very likely snuck in, emerging subconsciously while she was being tortured and hearing it being performed on Hotsuma, manifesting in her fists.
M-My back ... the fuck are you doing? Why is it burning .... ??
That made Aki raise an eyebrow. That was a good question, one she wanted the answer to, as did the others likely.
First thing was first; the struggles needed to cease. Then and only after that would Aki remove her hands off the glass, eliciting labored breaths as she did so. The sight alone would be more than enough to give both Divine and Jun an idea of how strong Yuna would be.
Mind you, it hadn't been like Aki used even 10% of her power.
But the fact she used more than 1% was a feat in itself.
Holding a slightly shaky hand out towards Yuna, Aki lifted her via telekinesis up. Lo and behold, the answer regarding her back was found in the form of her own tattoo.
"They ... are both ready, it seems ... " Aki said in between breaths, working on regaining all of the oxygen she temporarily lost.
