Getting on the Magitek craft was easy, but getting off was a complete suicide. Not to mention it was damaged by one of Leviathan's little snakes made in liquid form. Prompto was grasping onto the craft with his dear life and felt like crying since there was no solution appearing in his messed up head. He was a genius for technology, but pressure and skill never went together in his life.

"Help me!"

He cried in desperateness. Where are my friends when I need them? He could see his life flashing before his very eyes as he tried to control the flying craft through the air that was mostly controlled by Leviathan who had many buildings flying in her tidal wave.

"Prompto!" Voice of his lady friend caught his buzzing mind and he looked with hope towards the direction it was coming from.

"Kat!" He yelled her name he saw her with wide eyes on the catwalk. "Help me!"

"Jump!" She yelled. "You'll fall into the water."

"No!" Prompto yelled back, panicking while he tried to fly close to Kat. "I'm aquaphobic!" Kat mentally slapped herself.

"Claustrophobic, acrophobic, now aquaphobic...." Kat commented with frustration, ever surprise she managed to say that fast without her tongue getting twisted. "What are you not?!"

Kat had to think fast while Prompto was screaming. However, no solution was coming to her mind. Only one and that was to catch him, which was absolutely mad. She couldn't risk using her bonded souls since she didn't wish to harm him.

Before Kat could make any kind of a plan that would result minimum injuries, she found herself looking at Prompto heading her way. The last she saw before closing her eyes, was Prompto's panicking face.

Her body hit the ground with a crushing weight on top of her. She hissed in pain that pulsed through her back and the light weight on top of her soon fell besides her lying body. She could hear explosion not too far from them, but was sure that explosion was the craft Prompto lost control off.

"Kat, you are a life-saver." Prompto spoke with uneven breaths.

"And you are a body-crusher." Kat retorted as she opened her eyes and stared at the moody sky made by Leviathan's wrath.

"Thank you." Prompto told her in a gentle tone and she looked at him to make sure he was alright, mostly to make sure his head was alright. "You are a true friend." Kat could see the gratefulness in his eyes.

"After we are done here, I'll beat those phobias out of you." Kat smiled at him before she pushed herself off the ground and offered her hand.

Prompto accepted her hand to get onto his feet. He felt like his body was crushed but did not complain since Kat had it worst. Kat tilted her head left and right, feeling a few bones crack inside her neck. She was sure she will have a few bruises after this battle.

"Why were you flying that thing anyway?" Kat questioned as she stretched her arms.

"I had to drop Noctis at Leviathan's eye." Prompto answered proudly, his mission accomplished

"Oh." Kat acknowledged.

Their attention was suddenly pulled from each other towards the group of Magitek troopers making their way towards them. Prompto panicked for a moment as he was caught off guard by the rushing soldiers and summoned his handgun to his hand.

"Relax." Kat comforted him with a smirk playing on her lips. "I got this."

Prompto looked at her with questioning eyes. Kat wanted to show off her newfound powers before her friend. However, her plan didn't go as she wished. Liquid form of smaller Leviathan appeared behind the group of Magitek troopers and destroyed them as they were in its way. Kat and Prompto's eyes wide at the sight of the alive water breaking armors with ease.
