Welcome to Gaia! ::

-=The wall of chakra surrounding Neko would make the subtle electrical pulses hard to ping. The torrent of attacks weren't having much effect either, or so it seemed. He folded his arms in front of his chest, leaving his eyes closed as he waited for Reeve's serious attacks=-

-=Motoko slipped around Neko and Reeve, heading into the dojo as she sighed softly. She looked at Mel and quickly walked by her, snapping a habd down to hit a chakra point on her neck, kicking the leeches into action. Mel would quickly pass out, and Motoko would quietly drag her back into Neko's office. Once there, she would drag her to the top level and toss her on the ground next to the bed before heading to the lower levels to get the supplies her master requested.

After a bit she returned with a small wooden box. She sat it down next to Mel and checked her vitals, and the condition of the leeches and seals. When that was done she chuckled softly, opening the small trunk she carried up. After digging around a little she pulled a medical needle out and shoved it into Mel's neck. This should wake her up and let her be aware of everything, but paralyze her from the neck down. She looked at Mel, seemingly disgusted before grabbing a scalpel from the box. She felt around Mel's thigh for the small lump, then jammed the scalpel into her leg, cutting at least 3/4ths of an inch ito the skin and muscle. She slid the scalpel dorn a couple of inches and put a pair of forceps into the wound. She carefully pulled. Out one oif the leeches. It had grown fat with Mel's chakra, it's black color changing to a light red. Motoko examined it before placing it in a jar. She looked into Mel's eyes for a split second before gathering her things and leaving Mel on the floor next to the bed, mostly paralyzed from the neck down.=-

Fenris slipped out of the infirmary, only the hear Reeve's loud cry, and watch at the same time, Motoko carrying away her unconscious sister. She froze up, then stuck behind Motoko at a careful distance slipping into her shadow as she followed them into the office.

She watched from Motoko's shadow as to what was happening, fearing the worst. What was that slug thing? That needle? Why did they drag her in here!? She was obviously not doing t out of free will! Then...

How could Nekojiri change so much is to something she hated?

How dare he do this to a human being...

going into the kitchen zyphier grabs a piece of raw meat for himself, and a bit of bread, some milk, and a thing of honey. Returning to the main room he wolf's down the meat that he brought for himself then he takes from is pocket a piece of chalk and draws a tiny circle on the floor, and then places a micro scale bowl, cup and dish in the circle. Filling the cup with milk from an eyedropper, and the bowl with honey the same way, the tears a small piece of bread and places that on the plate then he smiles.

Sure the ninja could summon dogs, toads, snakes, what have you. But they needed to use their Chakra to do it. He could summon a messenger and all he needed to use was a bribe of food, and a circle to hold him while he ate.

-=Neko looked up as Motoko zipped by, briefly distracted from the task at hand. As soon as he heard Reeve's shout, though, he returned his focus to the barrier. Reeve's attack would be met with seemingly unwaivering resistance. Neko closed his eyes and concentrated, his chakra spiking up past the seal's restraints. He grimaced, clenching his teeth and fists as pain shot through his body, nearly crippling him. He tried to get it back under control, a bit of his chakra shooting back at Reeve from the point of impact. Mostly in the unintentional form of needles, a bit less in the form of raw power pushing back at him=-

That's enough, Reeve.

-=Neko would speak through telepathy, though it didn't seem like the normal kind. It was a direct link through Chakra, letting some of Neko's thoughts flash into Reeve's mind, since he was so distracted with keeping the barrier up. A familiar face and laugh came up mostly. It belonged to the woman sent to kill Nyl with her associates. The woman named Kara. She and Neko were working together, on something, and actually seeming to get along. As soon as they came, they were gone again, Reeve might even have questioned if they were real, or just some random string of thoughts he came up with on his own. Neko's barrier did resemble Kara's. Almost to the T.

Reeve recoils from the chakra spike, his expression pained, obviously confused and a little scared as thoughts that aren't his own seem to invade his very being. Here was a laugh and a face he'd not heard in a long time.
"Cheshire cat..." Reeve murmurs his nickname for her as he realizes to whom those attributes belong. The flash of a thought- a memory he'd never had showing both her and Neko working together causes Reeve to frown in anger. wading through the chakra needles and the freakishly fast memories toward Neko. He wastes no time in drawing his sword upon realizing that Neko and Kara's chakra were nearly identical. His voice is deep, and it is angry.
"What did you do? If you've sold us out again so help me God, Nekojiri..."

Reeve had always preferred close-quarter work. Keeping chakra closer to him, in his body, in his sword, meant that he didn't have to work as hard to expand it. This is evident as his sword clears sheath, as the power swimming through the steel is nearly palpable. Not just chakra, but raw power as foxfire, so much like lightning, surges through him and his favored weapon. His eyes are a wild and radiant green as he levels the point of his sword at Neko.
"Explain yourself, and quickly."

-=After a moment, Neko regains his composure. He lets his arms hang by his sides as he opens his eyes, looking at Reeve, and over his shoulder to Fen=-

Calm yourself. I've sold noone out. Who do you think I learned this technique from? I used my enemy to further my own training, and grew close enough to deal a killing blow when the she loses her use. You just drew out a couple memories of the training with her. Relax.

-=He released a few more seals, his chakra growing visible as he fed it to the barrier surrounding him. He continued to keep defensive, aside from the sheer amount of chakra, showing no means of attacking as he turned his attention to Fen, still keeping the barrier strong=-

You have no room to speak, Fenris. I killed hundreds, if not thousands of people to keep you alive. Innocent people to use as a shield to protect you. I endured torture for you, and you repay us by taking your own life. You throw away all those innocent lives because you're hurt that I was being a shinobi, and you can't understand the fact that a shinobi will do whatever is necessary to achieve the desired outcome. I needed to get you out of that complex, and you weren't leaving of your own will to live anytime soon, so I lied. Your own self-absorbed attitude is worse than any experiment I could do on a subject. Willing or unwilling. What you did changed nothing but my disgust for you.

-=His eyes weren't gold, even though his tone was definitely Youkai, and definitely a little angry. He stared at the two in front of him with stark silver eyes, barely visible under the blue hue of the barrier=-
