[The returned fire takes two small fry out in an instant, crushing them with their own stone. It knocks another out of orbit, sending it spiraling crazily down on the single rotor-like wing still functioning. That leaves two small monsters unharmed and a heckton of rock shrapnel volleying down from the collision.
Eyes still closed, Perseus cuts one of his arms sharply through the air. A shockwave of wind intercepts the shrapnel and then explodes, still high above the street. What's left of the fragmented javelins after Scuti's rebuff breaks down further into gravel and dust. Pulverized. Perseus's invisible air mines also catch the edge of one of the remaining whirring rock things and it plummets, at least temporarily disabled. That leaves one little floater and the big guy, which bellows and lowers its big, goat-like head towards the Sentinels, scraping at the ground with its hooves.
Down, down, beneath the streets, where the kaiju's lower half disappears from view, groundwater slowly trickles upward, pulling against gravity. It draws from the river and water mains alike to finish composing the brand new, still-forming kaiju Capricorn.
And Perseus still can't place what he's hearing--the faint, liquid echoes coming from somewhere. Before he can, the one remaining minion tilts forward and divebombs them, flinging its entire stone body at them with force.]
