He watched, still fascinated, forgetting about the monsters, forgetting about the outside world entirely. Until... wait, was that a movement to his right--

He turned around just in time to see the monster--some wolf-like thing, though he didn't get a good look at it before it was ripped in half, blood and guts splattering everywhere in a shower of red. Neku threw up his arms with a yell to protect his face, blood spattering over his forearms, sticky and still warm and... ugh. Ew. This stuff had better wash out of his clothes, he thought, feeling absurd for even thinking it when a monster had just exploded in front of him. And... seriously, what the hell?

He lowered his arms after a moment, trying and failing not to look at the... carcass. Oh, that was just sick.
