After a pause she shrugged "I suppose that's as good of a way to term it as any, but I can't say how many others here kill family members, could be just us unless you've heard different"
The bo-staff formed in her hands again and she grinned somewhat, quickly shouldering the weapon as she walked through the door, looking around paying especially close attention to every shadow in the room.

He follows her inside, getting a sort of kindred-spirit vibe from the girl. However, whereas she was deft and neat about shouldering her weapon, Dalcon stumbles awkwardly, dragging the outsized sword.

She looked down at him, some childhood memory of herself at age five trying the same with a monstrous claymore with a cross shape cutout from the blade. She rubbed one hand across the cloth strip tied around the other arm After a moment she shook her head, no time for memories now.
Gold eyes scanned the room quickly. "Don' suppose you'd know where anyone is?" she asked

He looks up at her, then around the room nervously.
"Youkai ate 'em?"

She shook her head "Don' smell 'nough blood 'round here to be that, plus I followed a live one of 'em till around 12 miles ago when I figured her pattern out. Little girl thinks she's probably still givin' me the run 'round." She sniffed the air a few times "I know the girl I was tracking has been here less then a day ago, and there are other fresh scents..."

"There's more than one?!"
Dalcon struggles to lift the sword, but the action ends up more like hiding behind the wide blade.
"Seph told me about the male...Oh man, they're gonna eat me...."

The girl sighed and decided to act like the adult she was. "You should leave or find a smaller weapon boy." her memories of being told something similar came to mind but she pushed them aside. "A blade is an extention of your body, if you can't use it like that then you may as well be fightin with an arm in a cast for all the good it'd do ya. Don' think don' act, just follow your instinct if you wana live through this" as she said those words she pulled out two oversized glass knives, that for his size could probably work like short swords in his hands. "Take these if you can't use that"

For a moment, Dalcon's eyes burn green in anger.
"You don't know me so well, so I can't expect you to understand. Thank you for the advice and all, but this is my sword. My mother gave it to me."
By virtue of rage, he actually manages to lift the thing, though it's taller and wider than he is, as he continues.
" The Headmaster...did something to my sword! It used to be smaller, but now it's bigger...and heavier..."

She sighed and watched him lift the sword. "I suppose if that's the card fate dealt ya then it'll be the one you use, just try not to get yourself killed, eh brat?" she said with a bit of a smirk.
"If I wasn't lookin to make sure the targets were here I'd plan to collapse the supports of this place one by one" she said with a look of sadisctic glee as she tossed a small orb of unstable chakra into the air before re-absorbing it. "A couple big ones of these and the supports for this place'd probably give out unless there's more to em then they seem"
((but now I suppose I'm off for the night, dang morning class -_-))

For some reason, the thought of the dojo crumbling is disquieting to the young boy, filled with youkai and boogeymen though it might be.
"Kill who you have to kill, but I can't let you destroy this place."
He crouches low, wedging most of his body between the blade, which he holds parallel to the ground, and the floor. Taking most of the weight on his shoulder, he looks up at her.
"And it's Dalcon. Dalcon Havenborn. Not 'Brat.'"
(Good night, then!)

Mai looked at the ground still and over to the fox who was cooling off, but seemed okay. The fox only went back to her anyway and curled up around her neck and on her shoulders, making itself comfy.

She looked down at him. "Well Dalcon I suppose I can leave this place standing, would've thought making a threat like that would attract someone if anyone was paying attention to us, so it seems we're safe at the moment" Kinuko shrugged and dropped her travel pack, eyes observing, but waiting for the inevitable. "I know at least one ninja's returning, probably another twenty minutes before that happens though, can't tell where any of the others are though..."

He grunts under the weight of the sword, trying to stand up taller and support it. "You seem to know this place and the people better than I do. Fill me in. What's your name, anyway?"

Ally had been walking by the room and saw Dalcon. She watched him carefully, and moved her eyes up until they met Neko's. She didn't say anything to him as she stood there, her mind still trapped a bit on what Motoko had said to her. What had happened that night, and what she said now didn't work together, and it hurt her, now she had just blocked all of that out.
"Most people in the dojo know better than you do. Your actions are careless and if you try anything stupid it will only lead to your own demise. I will show you around, just leave him be, he is usually too busy nowadays."
She said, showing the hint in her quiet voice of her bitter words towards Neko in the process of just being friendly to Dalcon in her way.

Dalcon squints as he turns around, giving her his best 'are you retarded?' sort of look as he looks from the girl he'd been speaking to, back to Ally.
"Leave him be. Right... I think I'd rather find my own way. Do I immediately start insulting you on sight? If I'm careless, what does that make you?"
