----------------Reyna wants fish, Satsuki is Ura's horse and Isamu's stitches are Sexy and awesome and smell like fish---------------------
Reyna's ears had both flopped over now, tail wagging as Urara joined her with Mr. Scritches, "Does Ura know stranger?" Reyna asked, circling the girl. She sat back down in Satsuki's path, watching as her Master asked for something, begging in the way only a human could. "Please?" Reyna asked in confusion, deciding to try and help Master although she didn't know what she was on about. Reyna gave her best puppy dog eyes, rolling over so that her stomach was to the sky as though she wanted a belly rub.
Isamu trudged with the group and had been recovering from Ura's cannonballing. Rubbing the back of his neck, a knot was forming, only in times like these did he feel. his age. He blinked and looked around seeing new scenery. Although he had to wonder why it had been walled off in the first place. It just looked like any other lake. Sighing he made his way over to the Exhibitionist and leaned down making gentle circles on her exposed belly. He had to avert his eyes because something about her he really enjoyed.
Reyna hadn't meant to attract Mr. Stitches to her tummy, but the belly rub made her mewl with glee and she wiggled beneath his hand, her tail swishing rapidly. To this the man smiled a genuine smile, a warm one he hadn't felt in ages. No matter, he moved on to approach Ura. He tapped her on the shoulder. "Hey, so, this is. . . Babylon right Urara?" He had to bend down to whisper to her. From her horse, Sat-chan, Ura grinned at Stitches, making a peace sign with her fingers. ”Yup! This is Babylon! Scienceworld and seafood palace galore! And home to Sat-chan here with those big eyebrows. Look how cool they are!" She gestured at the eyebrows on her friend and horse's head with a giggle.
The man raised his eyebrows and looked under Ura, sure enough there was indeed a person there. Making a slightly surprised noise he shrugged. He hadn't been paying much attention since that blast over the wall and all that. "It's an honor I suppose. . . Sat-chan?" He said to the horse.
It was weird really, she was ready to head back to Sanctum, and then there three people surrounding her. One of them who she knew, although haven't seen in a while. The other was...what looked like part dog? Though they sure acted like one. The other was one she didn't know at all. Urara had latched onto her back upon seeing her, and Satsuki attempted to shrug her off. "If it was food you wanted, you could've just asked instead of all these silly antics. And please, I'd prefer if you stopped pointing out my eyebrows, they aren't as huge as your making it seem."
Urara hopped off of Sat-chan once it was obvious she didn't seem to really enjoy it at all. Ura was a little bit sad about that - she was the embodiment of funness! Wasn't everyone supposed to like her? She didn't understand how Sat-chan didn't enjoy it but since she was a friend, Ura went back on the ground, with a cheeky smile." This place is so cool! I want a lake!" The child ruler giggled. "That's Rey-Rey! She's my best friend! She then pointed at the man who was rubbing Rey's belly. "And that's Mr. Stitches! He's pretty cool, but his stitches smell." Ura returned her gaze to Satsuki, brimming with friendliness."Thank you for the food! I super duper appreciate it muchses!"
Reyna seemed to pur as Urara rubbed her tummy. She turned over once Ura had rubbed it five times as any more belly rubs would be unacceptable. Reyna looked up at the girl Urara had said was Sat-Chan. "Sat-Chan and Reyna are friends now too?" She asked, looking up at her Master.
Ura stared at the fox - dog girl curiously as she rolled over, figuring that probably she had enough rubs? How about scritches, would that be fine? The child ruler placed her hand on Reyna's head, behind her floppy ears, but didn't start the scritch, just in case she didn't like it or want it. Was there a scritch limit? That would have to be somehting to learn, right? ”Yes!" Urara exclaimed cheerfully. ”Sat-chan and Rey-Rey are friends now, but not as much as Ura and Rey are friends. We're best friends, there's a difference! Ehehe."
Reyna gave an approving nod to the scritches, closing her eyes to savor the feeling of Urara's fingers in her bright pink hair.
As the woman, Satsuki, spoke Isamu made sure to listen well. For he knew New Prae was very weak, while Babylon and them had a friendship now that could easily change. If so he needed to be ready. He walked over to Ura, keeping an eye on the bushy-browed woman. "Urara, was there a purpose in coming to this place other than piggyback rides?" He had to wonder again, if this child-ruler was truly this childlike or if she was simply testing him to see if he was smart enough to see her brilliance that she concealed. He thought perhaps the former.
”We need food!" Urara murmured defensively, not meeting Stitches's gaze. ”...Ehehe. The food here is really good, and once we have enough energy, we can hunt bad guys! That sounds fun, right?" The girl didn't really have any major plan in mind, but she knew there had to be bad guys in the desert somewhere! She thought back to what happened to her home not too long ago, when she first brought Rey-Rey. ”Oooh, actually, we could try to fight slavers! They did stuffses before, y'know? Y'know? Rey and I beat some, but there's definitely still more out there!" Her eyes sparkled with a fury that usually was absent in this absent-minded girl's existence as a whole. And, well, perhaps another, less concscious reason was to affirm the friendship between the cities, but that was too much for Urara to be able to think up on her own.
Urara began explaining her reasoning to Isamu and he was going to interrupt her until she mentioned slavers. His eyes shifted into a much more focused and murderous gleam as he looked over the small girl. "You fought slavers? Where? Where were they? How many? What did they take?" He asked her his voice becoming more urgent as he spoke.
The girl nodded her head, noticing the change in Stitches but not knowing why. Did maybe he lose someone to slavers before? ”Yes! We, um, they were in the desert near that... that statue thing close to one of White City's farm things?" She paused to think. ”Um... there were a bunch! So it's probably a bigger organization thing! Right? We let one get away, though.... and, well..." Ura remembered the fear and terror on the eyes of the victims and shivered slightly, not wanting to ever feel so powerless again. ”They tried to take the kids of my home. To... to sell them or make them do... do things that's, y'know? Dirty stuff." Urara looked away for a second, feeling slightly overwhelmed. Then she sighed, smiling once again. ”Ura and Rey-Rey saved them, though! Rey's such a good girl, isn't she?"
The words the girl spoke only stirred Isamu more inside, amping his already high lust for carnage and blood. It had been awhile and now that slavers had been mentioned, Scythe had begun it's cacophonous whispers again. He turned away from Urara and began pacing a bit, his hands twitching up by his mouth. "W- we need to. . . Kil- go, seek these out and slau- s stop them. We must stop them." He was practically vibrating ready to fight, his hand flew down to the sleek, black baton streapped to his hip.
Urara blinked, confused about Stitches, not really understanding. She then turned her attention to Satsuki, making sure to keep up with the scritches in the meantime. ”Sat-chan, actually! There's somthing more important, but food is good too! Do you, do you have any news on slavers? We can hunt them for you, in return for the food! So please tell us everything you know, Sat-chan!"
Reyna looked up when the scritches suddenly stopped, Urara almost seemed nervous. Was there something wrong? Then the scritches started up again and Reyna forgot all about it, mewling in pleasure as her tail thumped against the ground, the girl looking up at the other three curiously. The mood had become moot, all too quiet. Mr. Scritches seemed to be acting weird, his intense red eyes seeming to bore holes into the girl. Reyna didn't like it, "Mr. Scritches is making Master uncomfortable!" Reyna snapped, canines on full display. She would bite him if she had to, although Reyna didn't think he would taste very good.
In his odd trance that was beginning to take ahold of his senses, Isamu glanced down to see Reyna bearing her fangs, as he had suspected she was half-demon. Clearly not full. Or perhaps she was a baby. Either way. He stood up with no fear and put himself in front of her, his eyes narrowed. "I'd put those away before I hurt you." He said between clenched teeth. He didn't want to hurt her, but if she insisted on presenting a challenge, he knew he wouldn't be able to stop.
Reyna snapped her teeth at him again, ready to leap when the scritching intensified and she suddenly turned into a pile of quivering pleasure, wiggling underneath Urara's hand. She rubbed her head against Ura, eyes closed as she savored the feeling. "Reyna will deal with Mr. Scritches later," she promised, opening one eye.
Isamu shut his eyes as she melted. How childish. Although a part of him was thankful to the spacey ruler, she had calmed the aggitated little Fox with no trouble. Then again the promise of further sparring between him and Reyna was certainly quite appealing to him. He calmed a bit as well, he took some deep breaths and mellowed out,
Urara beamed at her two friends, thinking to herself how wonderful it was that they were playing, getting along so well. ”Urara loves you both!" The child ruler exclaimed. ”The three of us can beat all the bad guys!" She continued the scritches, of course, but she also remembered that Rey-Rey was hungry.
"Reyna loves Master too." She glared at Mr. Stitches from where she sat, a slow smile slipping onto her face as though she were gloating that Urara was scratching her head and not his. This was something only an animal would consider a victory and he probably didn't mind it at all but Reyna considered it a win. She wouldn't let Mr. Scritches take Urara away from her no matter how funny his name may be.
Satsuki payed no mind to them, and while the man who they had called "Mr.Stitches" did seem...odd among their little group, she decided that it wasn't worth anything to look into it. Though, that only held true until they had mentioned slavers. She would've dismissed it as childhood fantasy and ignored it...that's what she should've done. Though the fact that Ura seemed to even be truly disturbed by her finding only prompted her to look further into things. When asked if she knew anything them, she could only furrow her eyebrows in response, which might've appeared intimidating to some, given the size of her brows. "No...in fact I knew nothing of the sort at all." She stood silent for a while, until she finally decided on what her next course of action would be. "Here, I'll personally treat all of you to dinner if you can tell me everything you know about these..slavers. I'll personally look into it myself if that pleases you."
”Oh! Sat-chan, I love you!" Ura let up on the scritches and tackled Satsuki into a hug, far too intimate and friendly for the woman, her grin wide and cheerful. It only lasted a second and upon releasing her, the serious and angry look returned to her eyes as she remembered the incident. So Urara wasted no time in telling Satsuki all about what happened - about how her people were abducted, about the insignia on the slaver's trucks that looked similar to some type of farming tool, about how she and Reyna killed one group, and how the surviving slaver ran in the direction of White City upon escaping Reyna's wrath. ”Ura believes there's something bigger than just one group happening here! Please, Sat-chan, can you help?"
Reyna looked up when the scritching stopped. Master Ura was talking to Sat-Chan and so she waited patiently, tail wrapped around her as she listened to them speak. "Reyna killed them, Master Ura didn't want the arm Reyna gave her though." She shook her head, both ears flopping over. "Does Sat-Chan want to kill slavers too?" She asked, looking up at the female with the large eyebrows.
