[Move, he says, and he doesn't have to tell her twice! She puts a little extra effort to increase the distance until the sound of the creature's feet stop hitting the ground. Only then does she whip around to watch Childe brutally assault the monster and finish it off.
It shouldn't bother her, really. The piercing of flesh and the crunch of bone. And yet it does. It makes her hair stand on end and her stomach flip. But other than the mild shock on her face she won't let it show. Tohsaka allows herself some time to catch her breath. Continued running at near her top speed is exhausting. Especially since she cannot employ her reinforcement magic on herself. How frustrating to look like both an idiot and an incapable damsel.
No one to blame but herself.]
By the time I realized how late it was I was already too far to make it back without having to cross the land at night.
[No mention of an attempt to have someone escort her. Why would she? After all that would mean owing a debt. Like this if she really wanted to she could argue that Childe acted of his own will.]
