She turned to the Faust standing next to her,"Can you imitate that sound?"She asked.

He closed his eyes, listening. "It's the wind," he said finally. "That's all I hear. There is no sound. Isn't there a body?"
Yuki circled the tree, looking up towards the branches. The tree had many of them, and they were all fairly high off the ground.

"Alright then...I'll have to blimb up to see..."she muttered. Focusing on the tree, she jumped and landed on one of the lower branches. Jumping from branch to branch, she made her way up the tree.

"Mom, it'll talk, if you pull the bark off," Yuki reminded Netsubo.
Faust stood under the tree, looking up through the branches. He squinted, looking for something that looked like his body.

"I know that...but I just want to see for myself..."She said, getting up to where the bodies were. As she looked around, she thought she spotted a familiar body.
((should he be there? Or should we play it out a bit longer?)0

((If you can think of a way to play it out a bit longer, by all means, go for it!))
"Mom?" Yuki called. "Don't... don't fall, OK?" he stared at Mephisto. "Can't you do anything?" Mephisto shook his head, looking genuinely sorry.

((lolz can't think of anything to drag it out...so we find him ^^ ))
"Yuki! I found him!"She called down. She was shaking and pale, but happy that he was there,"Mephsito, what do we do from here?"

"He can't talk!" Faust said. "But... pull off the bark... he did say that when the trees bleed, they talk..." he looked at Yuki. "Yuki? Can you see, what I look like, up there?"
Yuki squinted. "His eyes are plucked... but he does look like you. Happy?"
"Not really," Faust said.

Netsubo sighed and pulled at the bark. Strangly, having Mephsito quiet was more annoying than having him talk.

The bark was soft and wet, bleeding red on Netsubo's hand.
Who's there? I can't see, they took my eyes....

"Faust! It's me...Netsubo,"She said softly, trying not to flinch at the sight of the blood red.

Netsubo? What are you doing here? It's not a safe place... Faust's soul's voice sounded tired and weak.
"Mom! Is it talking?" Yuki called. Faust, likewise, looked interested to know.

"Yes, it's him!"She called down. To the tree she said,"I know that...But there's a way to get you back...."She murmured softly.

A way to get me back? The soul repeated. You would want that? After everything I put you through? Even if it meant confronting Lucifer himself?

"Of course I would..."She whispered,"I love you too much not to try..."
