"Ummm...Kiyo...I think it would be better if you hid behind the counter...." Kuno said softly, gently pushing the youth in that direction. "Leave these people alone...stop your foolishness..." Kuno growled, challenging the stranger, dagger now in hand.

"A puny little knife!?" Cole laughed. "What will that do!?" he jeered. Either he is this one's mate....or he is a fool.... Cole thought.

"Watch!" Kuno growled as he ran towards the man, knife in hand. "Leave this place!" he growled. I swore an oath to Arcaniss to protect the innocent when I have the chance....and I have the chance now! Kuno thought.

Cole created another blade of ice by freezing the water vapor in the air into the shape he wanted. He then pointed both the ice blades at Kuno as he charged. "Prepare to meet your end, little one..." Cole laughed.

Kiyo ducked behind the counter, peaking over a little. Shiyaa motioned for him to hide a little better, then glared at Cole, " I highly recommend you not cause such a disturbance inside. The police will be called by someone, you know...." He said, trying to reason with the man. He gave both Kaya and Kuno apreciative looks, smiling a little at them before glaring back at Cole.

"I don't care...as long as I kill you, mage...You've breathed your last....Prepare to die!" Cole exclaimed as he aimed both ice blades at Shiyaa's heart.

Shiyaa jumped back, fire surrounding him to protect him from the ice blades. He heard Kiyo scream in the background, but blocked it out.
"Mama!" Kiyo looked scared out of his mind, quivering behind the desk.

"Why don't you?" Kuno asked as he ducked under the blade, thrusting towards Cole with his dagger. He IS insane... Kuno thought.

"I think n---" Cole's voice was cut off as the dagger slipped between two of his ribs. He could feel that it didn't pierce and organs, but it still hurt like hell. He quickly backed up off the blade, and dashed out. "We'll meet again!" he called as he ran out the door.

"So he was right....you are a mage...." Kuno said softly. "Are you both ok?" he asked, sounding very concerned. If he hurt the,. I'll hunt him down and kill him myself....

The fire dissapeared, and Shiyaa stood okay, although a little shaken. He nodded," Yeah..." He muttered, looking over to Kiyo. The child stared blankly at Shiyaa, then ran over to the crossdresser, grabbing the bottom of his skirt, burying his face in Shiyaa's leg.

"You two should get home...." Kuno said softly, walking over to the man and the small boy. "I've seen him before....Cole Talbot....his father killed my father...." he said softly, trying not to remember the family he'd lost. I'll not let Cole do the same to Kiyo..... he thought.

Kaya had ended up just watching everything as it had happened. It had all happened so quickly. He looked to Shiyaa and and Kuno."I....I'm sorry for the trouble. I should have kept my nose out of it but...I guess I just got over protective for a moment." he shook his head slightly as he tried to fight back the tears that threatened to escape.He'd only made things worse."I screwed up. I'm always doing that." He couldn't hold back anymore and he sat down, only to have his few escaped tears turn to ice as they fell through the air."Seraph, help me." He made an attempt at something he'd learned lately. Instead of making a form out of the scarce water vapor in the air, he simply caused it to collect into one place and spread out across the table"Ugh." he groaned as he failed yet again at the technique."I'm sorry." he knew he probably wouldn't get a chance to talk to Shiyaa now. He'd probably chase him off for causing such an issue.

Mie-tanuki And it was then that Gervain realised that, even if it was only a slight one, he had an advantage over this man. The other was physically stronger - at lest, less beat up - and surging with energy and power, but Gervain had his own power. Knowledge. The other couldn't - or, at least, wouldn't - kill him until he got answers. This man seemed very curious - and, after all, he had every right to be. No one who had just had everything they had known as reality - the conceptions of magic, life, strength - destroyed wouldn't be curious. "Mmm... that's pretty much normal," Gervain said with a bit of a shrug. "Anyway, if you hadn't struggled and just died easily, yor house wouldn't be destroyed. I'm very clean with business when I get cooperation." The Necromancer was obviously quite a bit irked that he hadn't been able to catch the other affectively unnaware. Stealth was something he usually prided himself. He wouldn;'t come out and tell the other anything. He would have to ask, to pry... and he would have to do it on Gervain's terms - or, at least, that was what he hoped. The other didn't seem to eager to fight or to kill. And Gervain would not answer any questions unless his partner was there. It was just one of those paranoid insecurities that had been etched into his character. "I don't want to die. Obviously I'm not just going to roll over and croak. Fck that man... But how did I do that s**t? That's never... Most of that's never happened before. Why now?" Leif kept his eye on Gervain, one wild green peeking out from under tossled black locks.

Gervain glanced around. The street was empty... but one could never be sure. "If you want to know anything, at the very least don't question me in such a wide open area. If people hear, you could get sent to an asylum," he remarked dryly. He needed to try and convince the other of coming to his house. That would be the most likely place for Shadi to be able to find him. The idiot kid was probably stressing out about being hung up on now, or some other current paranoia of his.
