Takaya Kaguya
Takaya simply released his hold on the scythe, as the other man snatched it with a snarl. He did give a confused look, as Takeshi spoke of the "Man not human". Comment. What did he mean? But before he could voice this question, the man had marched back into the ally, scythe in hand. It was a few moments,until he heard some wood cracking.
Then the metal man marched back out, a look of a cross between sadness, and blood-lust on his face. He raised an eyebrow in question. Had the other man been boring to fight? As Takeshi grunted, Takaya walked quickly back to the ally, expecting to see a dead body that lay in the hot sun...but was graced by no sight of that.
He did see a pile of some splinters, no doubt that was the noise he heard from. He looked toward the roof, and saw a piece hanging off. So... the opponent had escaped then...most likely when Takeshi was outside then?
WIth that thought, the quiet member turned and walked back out of the ally. He decided not to say anything towards his partner, as he may snapand take it out on him. He followed quietly, as he heard a familier loud voice. Blinking, he turned towards it, and saw Yuji and Sakurai. He let a small sigh of relief, as he saw they seemed safe.
"Perhaps...we should join up with them? Then we could go back to the leader altogether." He said, as he tried to get Takeshis's attention.
Ren Tadashi
Ren simply waved his hand in dismissal as the girl retorted about not being stupid her dim. He found that quite laughable, after all the girl had just tried to take on a demon with out her weapon. And worse of all, she even knew he was a demon. It was quite stupid in his opinion.
He could see as the girl debated whether or not to respond to his previous question. Though she just stared at him, with those big purple eyes of hers. He simply tilted his head, as he stared at the girl. She seemed to be conflicted on just anwsering a simple question. Though then, he noticed as the girl's pupils disappeared in the shade of violet.
He raised an eyebrow in question, as the girl continued to stare. Ren then blinked in surprise, as he notice her eyes have a faint glow to them...that skill...it was called "Aura reading" or something. Some people in the Kazama clan had that, and that's how his plot all those years ago was leaked. So...she was a demon? But...then why wasn't her strength up to par?
Ashe continued to ponder this thought, the girl spoke, a soft and airy whisper.
"Kyo...ya Kaz..ama"
That spoken name caused him to stiffen visibly, and he narrowed his eyes at the girl. No one had called him that accursed name in so long...how did she know it? Though before he could question it, she held her head. Blinking, he walked over, to take a closer look. She seemed to be in pain...but why? Though before he could voice it once again, he felt her smaller frame fall into his chest.
"......You...." He looked down at the girl, who still was writhing in pain slightly. She didn't seem to notice that his body kept her from falling to the ground, as she battled the pain. How did she know his real name? He was sure they had never met before...so how? This question stayed rooted to his head, as he tried to think of an explanation. Could it be from the aura reading she did? With a sigh, he grabbed her smaller shoulders to make her stand up straight. She seemed to be out cold. Another sigh escaped his lips, before he picked her up and shifted her onto his back. He knew what he was doing was out of character for him, but he couldn't help himself.
He jumped down easily, before walking into a nearby inn, checking in quickly and heading to the room. He placed her on the futon and covered her, before sitting by the window. His sword,still unsheathed lay by him, and he picked it up by the handle after he slipped off the black haori he wore. Taking out a cloth from his sash,he began to polish it, absent-mindedly as he waited for the girl to wake up.
