Tara was having a little trouble getting into the restaurant. Apparently, they didn't allow weapons inside. "What about him?!" Tara exclaimed, pointing to Korsu who was just visible from where she stood.
"Yes, well, I'm sure he's an exception." The person in charge of seating replied, not even bothering to look to where she was pointing. Typical.
Tara backed off for a moment, deep in thought. It pained her to do so, but she needed to eat then and there and the next place to buy food was a couple blocks away. "If I leave my swords here, that would be fine, yes?"
"It would."
"Fine, but if I find out that anyone has touched them, even the slightest bit, they are dead. Then you're dead. Understand?" With that promise made, Tara removed her blades, placing them behind the podium the man was standing at. "No one." Tara repeated as she was led to a table. In fact, it was right next to where the person she had tried to use as an example was sitting.
"Someone will be by to take your order shortly."

Laughing, Enya gave something that on any other person might be seen as an evil smirk, "Oh, you're dead... you just messed with someone who can control water. There's no way you can win." She warned him, and with that she began splashing water at him frantically, laughing the whole time.

"Oh, really now?" He grinned and continued to splash water at her, laughing along with her. He hadn't laughed like this in a very long time. It made him feel incredibly happy. He thanked Enya in his mind as his thoughts of the curse, his life, and everything else that was bad, melted away.

Shrieking with laughter, Enya suddenly dove under and swam back a few paces before popping back up, and when she did she was no longer laughing. "Get ready to feel my wrath." She warned, laughter to her voice, and with a slight flick of her hand and ball of water formed and threw itself at Karoku.
*************
Fenrir was soaked, angry, and on his way back to the cave. The first thing that he noticed on the way in was that Karoku was no longer at the entrance, but he had been thinking that he had merely gone to bed; it was when he entered the cave that he became extremely pissed off. Enya was missing, and when he did a quick check, so was Karoku... Growling silently, Fenrir made his way to where the members of Karoku's pack were, fully intent on murdering his brother when he found him.

Karoku raised a brow at her new action. He didn't want to completely block it, so he made his ki manifest in front of him, leaving small openings so that only some of the water struck him. It might have felt a bit painful otherwise. He laughed and went under the water. A tap would be felt on Enya's shoulder as Karoku surfaced quietly behind her. He flicked more water up at her, missing her face intentionally. He chuckled and smiled at her, halting his attacks.

Enya ducked slightly when the water went over her head out of reflex, and laughing she twirled around to face him. When she saw he had quit playing, Enya arched a brow at him, slightly surprised but mostly amused. "What's wrong, Karoku? Don't want to play anymore?" She asked him, a smile on her face that almost split it in two.

He literally shook his head to get rid of thoughts. His gaze had found it's way to her lips, but he just couldn't do something like that. He laughed even more nervously then before and reached down to grab her hand, lifting it out of the water slightly. "Thank you for everything, Enya." His smile became very warm as he spoke to her. He let go of her hand and swam back a little, getting ready to flick more water should she proceed to splash more herself.

There she was, blushing yet again, and once more feeling flustered and at a loss for words. Enya took a breath and stopped moving her feet for a moment, allowing herself to drop beneath the water while she gave herself a quick moment to think, but when she made an honest attempt at yawning under water she decided right then and there that it was time to turn back. Popping up like a piece of cork, kicking only her legs to hold herself up, Enya smiled slightly and tried not to look nervous, "Hey, um... I'm getting a bit sleepy. Mind if we head back now?" She asked, acting like it wasn't her fault they were both in the pool in the first place.

Karoku looked at her, slightly confused for a moment. "Okay." He said before heading back to the ledge. He had to wait for her before he could perform his plan to get them out.

Enya flipped over on her back and enjoyed a nice, lazy, jellyfish like swim over to the ledge before she flipped back over and pulled herself out, still a bit embarrassed, but feeling much better. She gave Karoku an eager look, like someone awaiting some great magic trick that they know will happen soon; she had a feeling he had a plan.

Karoku crouched down slightly. "Uh, I need you to get on my back." He felt his face get a little hot, but he turned his head quickly ahead and waited. After all, they weren't both going to get out without doing this.

Not the least bit embarassed by the request, Enya tilted her head at him for a moment and wondered why it was that he seemed embarassed. Unable to ask for the moment without most likely causing an awkward conversation, Enya moved behind him and placed both of her hands on his shoulders before jumping slightly and quickly throwing her legs around his waist; she was suddenly very happy that she was barefoot, at least for Karoku's sake, otherwise she might have hurt him.

Karoku set his arms under her as she jumped on her back, giving her some more support. He sighed gently before crouching down a bit more and leaping into the air with great force. He jumped clear on to the ledge past the slope. He turned his head to look at her from the corner of his eye and smiled. "Want to walk, or shall I carry you?" He wasn't very exhausted yet, so running with her on his back would be easy. He also wanted to help her because she said that she was tired. He waited for a response before moving or setting her down.

With a slight laugh, Enya settled her chin on Karoku's shoulder so that her head was right next to his. She wasn't so tired that she could walk by herself, but she wasn't about to turn down a free lift either, she had used up quite a bit of her remaining energy and she was about to reach the edge of exhaustion again. "I have a feeling Fenrir will be there when we get back... and since I'm feeling a bit devious right now, I say we should annoy him by coming back like this," She said, though to be honest she couldn't say why it would annoy him, so she threw in for explination, "He doesn't let any of the other soldiers give me a lift, even if it would be more convient. He's actually ordered them not to."

Karoku laughed a bit, turning his head to look at her slightly. "Yes, it's always fun annoying him, huh?" he chuckled a bit more, but it died slowly after her next choice of words. "I see. Fenrir must... Haha..." Karoku shook his head and looked back at her again. "Alright, let's go..." With that, he sped off, moving at inhuman speeds through the cave.
