Welcome to Gaia! ::

In the darker lands of the country, a few clans reside in the shadows. They are usually consisting of spirits and the undead, but there are a few "living" unmong them. Takai isn't necessarily living nor dead, as she exists as a reaper, the being inbetween. However, she has left her home and clan in search of the other Members of Eight, as is her duty as clan leader of the Sins of Saints Clan. Her Charm of Eight, the Fifth Charm known as the Reaper of the Dead, is secure around her neck as she travels the lands in search of the other charms. One day... I WILL bring down this new evil... To reunite the Clan of Eight and bring peace back to this country once again... Takai's thoughts were cut off when she heard the moan of a lost spirit. With a soft sigh, her scythe appeared in her hand as she tracked down the spirit. It was a man who died an unfortunate death, and he didn't get to say his last goodbye to his beloved. Using her illusion powers, the spirit was able to see his beloved one last time before willingly crossing over to the Spirit World. With her duty complete, Takai continued on her journey throughout the lands. Her only company, other than the occasional spirit along the way, was a floating skull named Dokuro.

((i got bored during school so i actually spent like 30 minutes on that one post just for the hell of it >< ))

"My lady, do you sense that?" Dokuro asked, floating near her right shoulder. Yes, the skull spoke. After all, what was the point of having company from a silent skull? "Sense what specifically?" Takai replied in a soft tone, staring blankly ahead of her. "A powerful being. He is not dead, but he seems different from the normal..." "Of course I sense him. It's not that hard to tell the difference between the living and the dead," she retorted with a small huff. Dokuro sighed and went quiet for a bit. Takai was silent as well but changed directions, walking around some trees, knowing that Dokuro would follow anyways. It wasn't long before they came to the forest clearing, spotting a male with an abnormally large sword on his back. He seemed to be watching the sky. Takai remained at the edge of the clearing with Dokuro floating by her shoulder like usual. When she spoke, her voice was rather soft yet straight to the point. "Are you with the Demon King?" she asked him, her eyes almost distant as she seemed to stare passed his physical appearance and into his soul. As for the Charm of Eight that she had on her person, the only part seen was the silver chain around her neck while the actual Charm was hidden at the current moment.

Takai merely shrugged, crossing her arms over her chest. "Well, guess that's a no. Same here, just as an fyi, so you can relax," she said simply with the same quiet tone. After that, however, Takai didn't speak and merely watched Vince's rigid stance. Dokuro, however, sighed and tilted his head slightly at Vince. "My name is Dokuro, and I'm Lady Takai's Guardian Skull," he explained. Well, at least that's what Dokuro likes to call himself.

Vince let his eyes slide back to the sky, his body loosening a little. "You talk to much for a bodyless skull. And you talk to little for a girl. Is the only reason why you came here to ask if I was apart of the Demon King's army? Or was there more?" he asked. He wasn't actually being cold at the moment, just distant.

Vince ignored the skull, instead his head tilting off in the direction that he thought the new presence was coming from. Slowly he brought his right hand up to the hild of Tsurugi, taking a hold of it just below the hand guard, slowly sliding it off his back.

Vince stared off in the direction he was before turning to look at Takai. "You noticed my presence, but can't notice the power of one of the charms?" the chain holding the charm he had shined slightly, and his earring glinted slightly as he shifted, returning Tsurugi to his back, letting his hand drop to his side again.

(i fixed his profile its crappy but fixed)

His ears easily picking up on the two talking Sho perched his self in top of one of the trees so he could see the two in the clearing threw the branches and still stay hidden.
