After speaking to Kiwi, Horo had turned to look at the stage to see what was going on there with the other worldly feeling man, but as she looked in the direction of the stage, the series of explosions which caused the blinding flashes which would illuminate the darkness forced her eyes shut least the brilliance of them in this darkness blinded her, while the loud noises caused her sensitive ears to ring. She could hear, even through the ringing of her ears, the sudden noises of panic all about as the light and noise of the explosions lit up the darkness and with various screams from all directions the crowd began to surge outwards in different directions to get away from the explosions and this mad rush caught Horo up and she was dragged into the crowd and away from Kiwi, Kara and Cassie. A moment after she was dragged away by the rushing crowd, the scent of sulphur and brimstone rose up and was caught in her nose, showing that Kiwi had taken Kara and Cassie and escaped, which in this chaos was a relief to Horo, she didn't wish for any of the three to be hurt, even though Daniel barely knew them. The press of the surging crowd finally pushed Horo out of the surging mass, causing her to stumble against a wall nearby, where she rested for a moment. Looking towards the stage again, to see if could catch sight of what was happening...
The sights that confronted boggled Daniel's mind as something he had never imagined seeing before. The fight between the man on the stage and the number of armed mecha was almost entirely one sided with the weapons of the mecha seemingly had no effect on the man, whom Daniel had gathered was Steve Jobs. Watching with fascination for a few moments as the mecha were torn apart, parts and pieces scattered about as arena as Jobs demolished his opponents with ease. The surging crowds were desperately trying to escape the battle on stage but some seemed to be unlucky enough to get knocked down or clipped by pieces of mecha debris. Horo looked towards those who had been injured for just a moment, but was unable to get near them to help them without putting herself in danger, despite a wish to help them. Pushing up from against the wall she had fallen against and turning to leave the area with all the haste she could muster, though inexperienced as Daniel was with wearing a dress in any form, Horo was unable to move all that fast, still able to feel the heat and concussive blasts from behind as Horo tried to get away from the warzone. Looking about as she got away from the immediate vicinity of the fight, Horo found she was headed back in the direction they had entered the Expo orginally, so she decided to keep heading in that direction..
Horo managed to get no further than the last stand the small group she was with had visited, the one with the female mecha that seemed to have had some display some emotions briefly as well as the large hulk of a man who had carted off the mecha girl when it seemed to reactivate. As she stand, she felt a sudden strange jolt from the collar about her neck began to behaving strangely, various sounds coming from the strange high-tech device about her neck then a moment later after taking another step forward something would seem to press heavily against her feet, knocking her off balance and causing her to fall down on the floor in surprise of the sudden sensation. Laying on the floor for a few moments before pushing her hands against the ground and slowly raising herself up to her feet. Looking at her hands as she started to stand up, the nails on her hands were beginning to get sharper and harder, becoming more claw-like. Other changes began to occur as collar began to malfunction, her nose gained a slight tinge of black, her hair rapidly grew down her back, stopping midway down her back and slowly changing into a grey colour, similiar to the wolf's fur when she was shape shifted. She was beginning to look more feral than before. The process was occuring the same when as when she transformed fully into a wolf, but because of the malfunctioning collar it was occuring much more slowly...
Scrambling properly too her feet, she would stumble a moment, there was a sudden pressure within her shoes catching her off guard for a moment so she had to catch her balance on the table near the stand where the mecha girl and the hulking man had been. Sitting up on the table for a moment and removing the boots she had been wearing, checking her feet to find the nails on her feet had also grown into a sharper, harder and more claw-like like her finger nails. Tossing the boots aside as she could not wear them at the moment, she watched more of the paniced crowd rush by the stand, trying to distance themselves from the violence. As she watched them, able to smell their fear and panic radiating off them, Daniel would become acutely aware of the wolf in their mind clawing closer to the surface, now that it seemed the collar was no working to it's proper capacity, the wolf mind seemed to have gained more freedom leaving Daniel to wonder how much the collar worked to suppress it. Putting her hands on her head and shaking it a few times "Damn wolf, stop that...this is not the time for you!" Horo would speak this word's outloud, not aware if anyone might hear "We need to focus on getting away from this crazy place, and that crazy battle back there"..
