"Anytime," Reeve replies off-handedly, gazing off in a direction but not looking at anything.

"I...I left Durem, and I got about halfway back, and he dropped from a tree in front of me. He surprised me, started throwing kunai at me...talking about how they would come to the dojo, claim it as their own. So I ran." She frowned, staring hard at the backs of her hands. "Like a coward. I was running here...hoping someone would be around, I had no chakra...and he blocked me again. I got hit with a kunai." She absently rubbed her left shoulder, which was still rather sore. "But...I kept running, in a different direction, trying to confuse him..." She stopped for a few minutes, to catch her breath and collect her thoughts.

Fenris frowned and sighed, llooking down, then started eating, finding the food to actually be quite good. She looked up at Reeve again and smiled, "Tastes wonderful, Reeve..."

-=Neko looked over at Nyl as Eli left, yawning as he listened. The day had taken it's toll on him=-

There were a few questions that were about to escape--one of the problems he had when listening to stories--but he held his tongue, waiting for them to be answered when she continued.

Fenris frowns, knowing Reeve must be dissapointed as a suddlen splash of depression hit her. Strange... but suddnly she felt like bauling her eyes out. She got up and ran of the her room, "I'm sorry, Reeve..."

"S-some of what happened after that...is fuzzy. I remember he grabbed me from behind...he snapped my wrist." She looked dazedly at the wrappings around it. "And there was a point where I thought he was gone, so I kept coming...here. But he'd followed me silently...and he stabbed me in the back first. ...He kept talking about how...how all I was good for here was my chakra...how nobody would be able to find me before I died, and they wouldn't care either way. ...How the dojo would fall without me, and it would be easy to claim it."
Nyl took a shuddering breath. "He...he stabbed me again, and I used the rest of my chakra to kill him. Even if it meant I was going to die too...because they won't hurt the people in this dojo." Her hands clenched into fists. "I don't remember much after that, either, besides waking up here and not knowing where I was."

"No, not again..."
Reeve follows her, catching the door with his foot.
"Fenris..."

Fenris fell to her knees on the floor of her room crying. She couldn't help it, so she just let it happen. She didn't even notice Reeve was right behind her, watching her.

-=Neko's expression turned serious as he put a curled finger to his mouth, softly biting on it=-
This isn't good...

"Fenris..."
Reeve picks her up and holds her close.
"Tell me about it..."

He nodded softly. He could still see the wounds that she described. How she was still able to walk around after losing so much blood was a tribute to her willpower and stubbornness. His fists slowly balled. He was withholding a furious anger. He was planning on asking who this man was, but since he no longer existed, the information seemed irrelevant. So, instead, he asked a different question. "Are there any others that might be in league with this person?"

"Yes. Three others, plus him. ...Because there used to be five of us." She was starting to shake just slightly, from the accumulation of everything that had happened.

"What!?" She asked, slipping out of his grip and walking across the room. "I don't know why I'm sad... I just am!" She stared at him, having no clue how to really say this, then she backed up against the wall and disapeared into the shadows.
