Eve-1 Twelfth Feat

Just then, something came peeking out of her throat.
It was covered in a glittering liquid. Toshiaki could not tell whether it was saliva or
bile. The thing was a reddish pink and wriggled and crawled out slowly from Asakura's
mouth like some octopus, spreading out tentacles to restrain her scratching hands. It spread
over onto her bosom and, changing shape with ease, rippling like a worm, proceeded to cover
her entire body, which was spasming sharply. There was a sound like bubbling muck, and it
was now completely free: pleats of flesh. Some shiny, amorphous meat-creature. It looked
like Asakura's intestines had turned inside out to cover the entire surface of her body.
Toshiaki heard it. Perhaps no one else did, but he was sure he'd heard it. From where
her face used to be, there had come a faint wail:
"Help..."
In Asakura's own voice.
"Asakura!" he shouted.
Just a moment later, she burst into flames
The auditorium broke into panic.
A hot wind surged down upon the crowd.
Eve 1 blazed like ignited oil. Flames ranged from red to crimson, then blended into
yellow, burning so fiercely they seemed to lick the ceiling. Asakura was trapped in a pillar of
fire.
Violent screams broke out everywhere as people rushed towards the exit all at once.
Nearly sixty of them descended upon that single door, overturning chairs and pushing each
other without mercy. Someone collapsed near the entrance and was nearly trampled to death.
Toshiaki took off his blazer and ran up to the podium.
As he came near, Eve 1’s inferno shot out at him. He stooped over, unable to move
another step forward into the heat. Asakura was moving about violently on the stage. Her
stockings had caught fire, the flames moving up her legs like so many tongues, and her long
hair, spread out like a fan, was burning a pale blue.
