Snippet #1401939

Sudou watched as just about everyone left without another word; Hiroshi had left to wherever, and Takeshi had taken that dog of his out on some walk, leaving Sudou and Yuriko there in the main room. Sudou glanced at Yuriko with an expression of irritation. "Well 'ell, that little get together was over right quick," he grunted, standing back up from the chair he had only just sat into. Wonder where Akari is, then? Looks like everyone got their arse down here but her. Sudou did not know Akari to be particularly reclusive or quiet as far as the people in the group went. He looked back to Yuriko. "Meh. Looks like all there's gonna be to do is putter around this ridiculously large mansion. Well, Takeshi and Hiroshi are out doing who knows what, so unless you and Akari have anything planned, I'm gonna...I dunno, go to my room and be bored to all hell." He shook his head, turning around to go upstairs again.

Meanwhile, behind the car Gin was driving, which contained the girl named Ruska Mia, a second car revved up, and began to drive after Gin's car had left. With the distance the second car maintained from Gin, it was surely not making it obvious that Gin was being tailed. Behind the wheel of the second car was a rather thin-looking, almost frail young man with light hair and eyes and fairer skin than most in this country--a young man who looked as if a single bump with another car would entirely break him. As this thought passed through his mind, the eyes of Shikari's human form flashed scarlet for a split second. It was useful, if only because no one would ever expect this fragile-looking boy to be a being that could probably break their neck with a flick to the chin. Of course, Shikari was disappointed that he would not be allowed to release the girl into a forest, where the hunt could proceed as always--but then again, urban environments were also very entertaining for the hunt. A malicious smirk, entirely out of place on the innocent looking face of his human form, spread on the demon's face as he gunned the car forward.
