It had been some time since Kiria had visited the gardens. The light of day was barely breaking over the horizon and she stood there, sword poised over her head as she arced the blade gracefully down towards the ground, pulling it back, and turning to face the side.
She always found swordplay to be relaxing. Much needed after dealing with Abilith when she was home. She knew she should be more concerned over the whereabouts of her mother's new birthstone, but Selona had quickly nixed the idea of her chasing after the Demonic. She had been assured of the white stone's safety. A promise and a guarantee Kiria did not take lightly.
Since she had grown, she looked at everything in a new light. Not as flip-floppy or childish as she had been, she had taken on many responsibilities since then.
A breeze rustled through the air, and she adjusted the purple half-mask slightly, covering her mouth and nose. There was a smell in the air now, but she wasn't sure if she knew what it was.
Time would tell.

Since it was such a glorious day outside, Keo had decided instead of waiting for people to arrive inside the sanctuary, that he'd go out in the gardens for some fresh air. Perhaps sit by the lake for a while.
His smile was small and warm as he walked through the door that lead to the garden, leaving it open so others may take in the air if they arrived in the building.
His yellowish eyes glanced over the garden, eyes settling upon a famillar figure whom he hadn't met since she was a teen. Kiria, he could tell it was her with those wolfish ears and long purple hair. Noticing the sword in her hand, he chuckled. Best be careful and not suprise her, he thought to himself as he walked over and called out to her. "Hey! Kiria!"

"Hrn?" The smell had come pretty close, and the voice... well... that she did recognize.
"Keo?" She spun around, quickly sliding her sword back into it's sheath. It was hard to tell, but her eyes said she was grinning beneath the cloth.
"How are you? It's been awhile." she eyed him for a moment, "You got short." she smirked now that the distance between their heights was not so great.

Keo replied with a chuckle and said. "You've got tall!"
"I've been good." He nodded as he stopped just infront of her, looking her over at the clothes she was wearing and seeing just how much she had changed. "I like the new duds, Ninja woman."
He smirked, placing his hands in his pockets jeans and tilting his head slightly. "How about you? Enjoying life as an adult?"

"Heh, yah thanks. I was pretty happy with them. Course, I suppose that's why I got them." she fussed over her ponytail a bit, one arm clasped over the other.
"I see you changed your look as well." she thought a moment on his question before sighing a bit.
"Well, if enjoying adulthood is chasing little demonics around the house trying to keep them from mashing birthstones off the wall... then yah. I suppose I am." she shrugged a bit.
"Course I've not gotten out much lately to really make any decisions I suppose."

"Yea, it's more comfortable and more intuned with the Here and Now" He chuckled, saying the last parts while making bracket signs with his fingers.
"I know what you mean, though.. I don't have to deal with a demonic." He said, just smiling at her warmily. "I wouldn't worry about the stone neither, it's very hard to mash them up."

"The hear and now eh? I see... but if you start walking around playing rap I'm going to take whatever you're using to play it with... and mash it over your head? Deal?" she laughed a bit and plopped to the ground, crossing her legs.
"Hmm, no you don't, but I know what you do have. So I imagine you have some.. fun of your own." she looked up at the sky.
"Selona told me pretty much the same thing... it's more, however, I hope it doesn't grow while she still has it. I don't think children are as durable as the stone. And with my luck she'd try to mash it's head on the wall to 'make it work' as well."

"If I started doing that I would want you to smash me over the head." He laughed.
Sitting himself down next to, making sure that he wasn't going to crush his tail, he brought his knees up and rested his elbows on them. "Well, I have to look over this place don't I? Gonna different people to deal with."
Resting his head upon one of his hands, he stared up also, before turning his eyes back onto Kiria. "I think you should be worried about wiether she'd try and bring the child up herself." He grinned slightly.

"Good, cause it wasn't really much of an option I was giving you." she brushed at her pantleg a bit.
"Erf, yah I know... I didn't really want to bring that part of it up. It's been running through my mind... but I'm sure she'll stop by home before then. I'll stop here there and get the poor thing back from her at that time. Until then however..." she flopped to lay her back in the grass.
"I've got time to spare."

"I'm sure she'd have to go home for food, if she can't find anyway of getting any that is." He then gave a sigh and looked around the garden with his usual happy smile.
Ears flicking slightly, he smirked a little. Reaching for Kiria's tail and giving it a slight tug before getting up and pacing a few steps away with a big smirk on his face.

"Yah I suppose but whaaaaaeeeh?!?" Kiria's eyes shot wide open as her tail was tugged on.
"Hey! That's my gimic!" she jumped up. "Ooh.. you're going to pay for that one fox boy..." her ears pinned back mischieviously as she leapt in his direction.
Sure she was a hypocrite. Only she was allowed to pull on his tail.. this was not a vice-versa thing of course.

"Just getting ya motivated!" He laughed loudly as he turned heel.
He held his tail tightly to him as he looked over his shoulder, grinning widely. "Let's see some of that Ninja power!" He teased slightly, ears up straight in the suddenly excitement. He knew Kiria only liked pulling his tail and not the other way round.

"Okay fine! But you asked for it!" Yah... sure, grown up right?
Reaching into one of her many pockets, Kiria was quick to palm something, the grin behind the mask becoming a smirk. It wouldn't really hurt the fox man... but it would certainly be bothersome to the feet.
Flicking her wrist, several small caltrops fled ahead as they ran, landing a foot or so ahead of him. Hopefully they should at least slow him down.

Seeing Kiria throw something but not exactly catch where it landed, Keo's ears drooped and his smile faded. Suddenly steeping on something that went through his trainer's heal, he yelped slightly in pain, hopping on the spot in circles. "Agh! Geez!"
He wasn't going to let them stop him, though he had to let go of his tail has he began to hop away, trying to get the device out of his shoe while he was escaping Kiria's upcoming wrath.

And... yep he dropped his guard. Good a time as any wasn't it then? She sprinted forwards, overstepping her little annoyances and pulled a small, silk rope out that had a slight noose to the end of it.
She whipped it quickly out, hoping to snag the motion swept tail up in it.
Seriously... who challenges a ninja to tag?
