Re: Anya and Sarah
Research in the library had led to this plan, and really, it was a good one. Logical and well planned, it would work. It had to. Kumiko had to be contained before she brought the whole city down around their ears or something.
Anya kept hold of Sarah's hand, the physical connection helping her to focus on the magical one, as she also murmured the incantation, her tone matching Sarah's. She didn't go into the same type of meditation though, knowing her place was to act as support and as such needing to remain more aware in this plane of existence. The Jedi, Jacen, was watching calmly in the corner, using his Force senses to both monitor Sarah and keep some sort of connection to Kennedy. Useful people, those Jedi folk.
She kept the incantation going, waiting for the right moment to leave Sarah in peace in her meditation.
