Patrolling while injured was a terrible idea, Minkowski knew, and she wasn't really sure why she did it. She figured, if anything, it was because she healed faster while powered up... or at least that was what she told herself. Her magic did nothing for the most part but ease the pain just a little, and she used it sparingly at best, with its already limited uses.
She should have gone to the hospital after the incident with the Greater Youma, really, but how would she have explained it? Or afforded it, for that matter- Anming was just a college student without a steady source of income, whose parents didn't speak English as a first language.
It seemed that she was going to regret that decision soon, though, as Minkowski had the misfortune of running into a youma on her own. It figured, of course, that this would happen, and there was no one around to help, either... and nobody that Minkowski could call, either. Not that she would have expected anyone to show up, of course.
Desperately, she looked around for an escape route.
