Luckily - or unluckily, depending how one views their situation - the creature seems quite intent on chasing them, solely focused on the two of them as it charges forward, and it seems to be gaining speed. Kitty regrets leaving her sword on the train, worried that the weapon would cause people to be suspicious of them.

Suddenly the creature leaps into the air, and Kitty skids to a stop when it lands in front of them.
