Dangled above Kohaku, a wide-eyed ninja blinked in wonderment.
'…What?'
Yoh was a complete ball of confusion. How did he manage to end up in such a situation?? Let us back track for a moment, shall we?
When the bomb had went off within the fortress, like everyone else, Yohachirou panicked out of concern for his sister’s safety. It was then that Kohaku recklessly rushed ahead of the group only to fall prey to a ninja trap. A veeery spiky and dangerous one at that. Then, disregarding Kikyou’s plea for him to remain in her proximity, the shinobi had raced out in order to aid the taijiya. Compared to Yasou however, he was not quick enough.
Apparently though, the young man was just long enough. Without much warning, Yasou decided to ‘take up the ninja on his unspoken offer to help’ and Yohachirou was flung down into the dreaded pit with the daiyoukai holding him by his feet.
In conclusion, shock and confusion soon gave way to his typical rage.
“What the hell are you thinking, youkai no baka!?! Sure, I meant to help, but not like this!! Are you insane!? We’re heavy!!” emotion_bigvein cat_scream
And as entertaining as the situation had become, let’s not forget just where the group was.
Yoh’s last statement triggered another concern. They were heavy. All three of them. Yohachirou held on tightly to Kohaku while Yasou held the both of them… standing at the edge of a man-made hole of all things. The ground could very well be weaker beneath them. The shinobi knew all too well that it was not uncommon for his clan to set up traps close to each other in the event that one is activated and there’s another around to help the poor captured sap. …Kikyou striding up did not ease this concern.
“H-hey! We need to move, now!! Hurry!! ” gonk stressed
