Snippet #1541561

"It looks like we are too late," Aria said carefully while crouched over one of the bodies at the edge of town. Sanzo was fast and it had only taken them a handful of minutes to make it there, even while taking cares not to be seen. Not that there was anyone there to see them: they hadn't come across a single living soul on the way, nor inside or about any of the buildings they had searched. Sanzo was watching the street carefully from the shadows of the alley they were hidden in, his fist clenching and shaking with rage but his expression neutral.

"No... I willnae accept tha'," he growled, his flicking from one building to another along the street as he searched for any kind of movement. Anything would be better than just a burning town full of corpses. "We havetae go now..." he warned. Sanzo had been circulating the air in the alley to keep the smoke out, but the flames had begun to encroach upon them.

Aria returned to his side, transforming back into her chain form and coiling about his right arm loosely. Sanzo darted out of the alley, whipping the air about him upwards and about to protect himself from the smoke. He made his way across the road with uncanny swiftness and slid through the entrance of a two story residential, landing in a crouch to be ready for anything. Nothing... just more smoke, flames, and death. He grit his teeth in frustration... only one group was capable of such careless destruction.

"God... DAMMIT!!" He sprang to his feet and let the wind explode outwards. With a dull *BOOM* that echoed across town it shattered every window all at once, forcing all the smoke and flames out in a single instant. He stalked outside with a purpose, his anger having whipped the wind into a frenzy all about him. Wild currents rushed between buildings, blowing smoke into fitful twisters all about town. Flames in his immediate presence guttered and went out as he passed, walking with a purpose down the main boulevard, no longer hiding or looking to ambush stray soldiers who'd been separated from their group. Sanzo uncoiled his chain and let it drag menacingly behind him as he walked, his hateful gaze focused ahead of him.

"I know yer out there!!" He shouted. "Come out an' answer fer ya crimes!!"
