Now that he has a plan, he seems to have gotten a bit of his usual countenance back. "I think you will find this trick to your taste! For tonight... I will make this creature disappear!!"
Unfortunately for Miko - and fortunately for Neku - he doesn't bother explaining his plan further before setting part 1: cape boogaloo into motion; all he gives her is a cryptic wink, before putting his so-far useless rocket shoes to use. The jets sputter for an instant, light illuminating the alley in short, blinding bursts... and off he goes at high speed, trailing his long flowing cape behind him.
He raises his arms, and for a fraction of a second it looks like he's going to succeed in throwing the thick fabric at the cyborg's head... but despite the distraction the creature is once again too fast, and it's with astonishing reflexes that it grabs Eusine's leg in mid-air before flinging him into a wall, turning the rockets' momentum against their owner. His body hit the bricks with a worrying thud before falling to the ground; he still appears to be conscious, but barely.

Talk about anticlimactic.
