[Lifting people or monsters into the air is still more of a challenge than doing it to items, but Hijikata has had plenty of practice by now. One of the ghoulpies involuntarily rises out of the water (looking extremely confused about it and kicking its legs, but finding no ground under them).]

Fire!!

[Every single shot lands, given Mukuro's marksmanship, and the ghoulpie lets out a shrill, ghostly whinny... but it's still very much alive (if that term even applies to these creatures) after taking the barrage of gunfire. Wet as it is it's not easy to see, but it doesn't seem to be bleeding at all.]

Well, damn.

[The second ghoulpie, having overcome its moment of stunned surprise, starts to come ashore. It knows where they are now!]

I think we're going to have to split up. I'll burn this one, but it'll take a while! Can you bury that one in the ground or something? No matter what you do, don't touch it!
