The first black key slashed the edges of the portal... and fell apart along the length of the cut, the metal clattering to the ground on the other side of the rift. Magic may have created the hole, but something... else was propping it open.
Ruby almost jumped out of her skin when Vash tried to comfort her, but before she could otherwise react the rumbling had appeared, and with a snarl she whipped Crescent Rose back out from its magnetic sheathe as the sniper scythe unfolded again. "We don't need to run! Whatever these things are, they're dangerous, a-and if we're gonna help ourselves and this world we shouldn't let any of them out of there! Wherever... there is" She said as she set her feet with a frustrated, still slightly teary-eyed glare at the opening.
The noise was growing louder, though whether it was dozens or hundreds of beings screeching and hissing in their minds was impossible to tell with how alien the noises were. Ruby didn't seem to care, her mind still reeling from confusion, fear, anger, and grief for a girl she barely knew that was hitting her as if she'd just lost a member of her team.
It was worth a shot at least and now he knew more about the portal then previously. He tossed the useless stub to the side, stepping back and out of the way to stand by Ruby's side as he produced his own weapons.
Glancing at Chell and sensing at least part of her desire, he spoke aloud.
"It is hungry. Do not think to go down its throat miss."
To Ruby, he breathed deeply and sought to show a confidence he did not entirely feel as he spoke.
"And we will not, though we must consider options. Those with the power to analyze and shut the portal must do so. The rest of us?"
He turned to the portal and smiled grimly as his eyes reflected Azula's flame.
"We must make them fear to come to this side of the portal."
This last was a request to all. They may not trust each other just yet.
But he knew they could fight together.
