Shri glaced about grinning from ear to ear in a thoughtful way explaining to Rukia, "Alageel did not allow me to escape. I escaped thanks in part to my own free will as well as being small enough in my true form. I just turned back because I only had enough energy at the time to escape my prison cell." Shri continued to face Rukia down and glared at her, "You really want to face me? When the moon is high and full and the waters are all around us? That would be a shameful way to parish, my dear, dear Rukia. You deal with a water spirit and a warewolf against you. That would be quite unfair if my calculations are correct."
