Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Ah, it's you." Bardok gave a smile and opened the door. "We're just having story time before school." Bardok clearly didn't take the current situation seriously, a bad habbit that he picked up from Vain.

Daishi respectfully turned as Taki got dressed, turning only as she approached him. Gathering her in his arms, he hugged her close, glad she was safe. He had to go to the school soon to his post as a teacher and apparently Taki had some things to tend to, but he was in no hurry. Besides, nothing compared to seeing Taki again.

"I see we have some catching up to do, though that can take place at your convenience...May I steal you after your meeting with Kyosuke?"

Xiaeriene blushed slightly as she gazed upon Bardok's heavenly smile, but she pretended to be nonchalant and uninterested, turning her nose up and closing her eyes "Eh, you know how things are, I was just dropping off my drunk a** Papa, he said he had some business with Vain before he down three pitchers of Screwdriver...." She smiled slightly "If.....if you don't have anything to do right now, wanna walk to school with me? My girls are probably already there in the courtyard, so I am heading that way now"
Xiaedessa smiled "Good morning, Koori-san, sorry to come by so early, but Taki wanted to talk to kyosuke before school...do you mind if we come in for a bit?"

"Yea, I'm all set to go." Bardok still in the same clothes as yesterday, his UFC shorts and vest, silver wings were on the back of the vest. He waved for the others, but only Izumi acknoladged him and got ready.

Izumi was wearing a bright red t-shirt with silver wings on the back of it. He also wore black goth pants, and black goth boots, his katana, Kasei Ete-naru was still at his side with an Ahnk hanging from the but of the handle.

"Alright, looks like it'll just be us three for now." Bardok lead the way outside of Asuka's apartment, heading for the ******** Mobile.

"Come on in. The place is scarce and devoid of anything comfortable right now. But make yourselves at home."

Koori greeted and ushered them inside and closed the door behind them. Kyosuke rolled over backwards an into the traditional sitting position.

"OK who wants to tell me what's up?"
"I need to talk to you in private for a moment."
"OK."

He stood up and walked into the bedroom. Taki followed. They both sat down on the floor.

"Kyosuke something terrible has happened."
"What happened?"

He sounded bored.

"Kyoshiro and the others..."
"What about them?"
"Their dead..."

She said. Kyosuke could hardly hear her. She leaned forward and tears weld up.

"Their dead?"

She slowly nodded and she began to cry. He place a hand on her back.

"Tell me everything."

After about five minutes Kyosuke called Koori in. By this time she was dressed. She went inside. She sat down next to Taki.

"He's dead, huh?"
"Not just him. It was a massacre. By all means an act of war. It's time we got serious about these rebellions. Koori what do you know of this person Tengu?"
"Well... He joined my gang right after it first formed. I think he said he broke out of one of the maximum security prisons. After we merged he became part of the Blades as well. I really don't know much about him other than he's a demon on the battlefield and derives sexual pleasure from killing. He's a strange person. Looks and sounds a lot like a girl. He cross dresses a lot. Just an over all freaky guy. Very strong. Last I knew he used a pile and an overly large katana and a pair of Indian military knives."
"Well he's the one that killed Kyoshiro and the others. The main headquarters has been destroyed. He tried to rape and kill Taki as well. He said they would meet again. We need to be careful and decisive. Tonight with the remaining forces we will put down the rebels. All of them. By any means necessary."

He stood up and helped Taki to her feet. And they left the bedroom.

"Sorry that took so long everyone. I'm going to have to start with his funeral preparations. I won't be at school today."

He sat back down in the main room.

"Daishi... I know you and Taki like each other. So I would like you to watch over her. As for Tengu. He's as good as dead!"

His eyes narrowed and filled with anger as he thought about Kyoshiro. Tengu sneezed as he walked around in Lower Town.

"Someone must be talking about be. How rude."

Megami sighed as Koori ignored her, and plopped down on one of the Tatamis
Zangonya leaned against the wall with her arms crossed. She opened her eyes as the entered from the bedroom "Kyosuke, if it is not too much trouble, I would like to request you to allow me to study this Tengu....I had a run-in with him right before I joined up with these guys, and I must say, there is something peculiarly demonic about the man, it does not seem to be something normal for your type" She walked over to Xiaedessa "School starts in ten minutes, we should get going" She turned and bowed to Kyosuke

Kaguya appeared in the form of Olivia, masked and shrouded in her robes, and laughed as she observed the state of Lower Town. She teleported, appearing in front of Tengu "Well, I must say, you certainly are a piece of work.....I daresay, if you want to kill Kyosuke and his little ragtag team of idiots, then you are going to need something that We can give you..."

Xiaeriene hopped out of the ******** Mobile as they parked in the lot near the school. She had spent the afternoon chatting with Izumi about the satus of the Elemental Realm"Hey, Guns, I'm going to go grab the girls and use the bathroom before class, I'll see you in Homeroom" She turned and ran off into the courtyard. Sure enough, Ran, Nanami and Mayune were there, sitting on the bench gossiping about the hook-nose old fart of a janitor. "Girls, let's go, it's time to freshen up!"
Xiaedessa smiled, and bowed "I guess I'll see you later then, stay on guard, Kyosuke, it seems we still have those strang Black Star Nation people out to get us as well"
