Welcome to Gaia! ::

Mitsu seemed to relax a little when he promised. At least that was one less thing she would need to worry about. She already hated the fact that Shun willingly threw himself in the line of fire for her, he didn't need to keep doing it just to save her and especially not for information. It was already too late for saving and knowing a little bit more wasn't going to help. "Just remember your promise, okay? I don't want-"

"What's he supposed to remember?" The voice seemed to come out of no where which made Mitsu jump. She was used to a lot of things but being sneaked up on wasn't one of them. Tail frizzed and eyes wide she turned sharply to see that Nyx had joined them and was standing quickly with a curious expression on her face. "You look like you've seen a ghost." Nyx mused seeing Mitsu's frazzled state.

"Y..you're so quiet," Mitsu said quietly trying to smooth out her tail a little. "H..how are you doing?" Mitsu liked Nyx, she was always nice to her but there was something about the girl that always made Mitsu nervous. She couldn't quite put her finger on what it was. It could possibly be how she smelt. To a normal nose Nyx probably smelled no different than a normal clean teenager, but underneath the scent of shampoo and soap was the smell of something feral that always made the hairs bristle on Mitsu's tail.

"And aren't you just a ray of sunshine?" Nyx grinned before she came to stand next to the wolf girl. "I just saw you... thought I would say hi. I don't want anything. You act like you got something to hide." Mitsu was suddenly quiet, diverting her gaze to the ground which clued Nyx in that there was, in fact, something to hide.

"Anyway, I was thinking about borrowing Mitsu here." She wouldn't question what they were hiding, Nyx knew with Shun here she wouldn't get an answer anyway. "You don't mind do ya, Smiles? I'm sure you were boring her to tears anyway."

Nyx chuckled a bit as she looped her arm in around Mitsu's which left the wolf girl to look at the shifter with confusion. "I don't think you quiet understand. By borrow I really mean take." Nyx mused. "You know, girl time. So you can run along. I'll take good care of the powderpuff."

"I..It's okay, Shun. I'll....catch up with you later?" Mitsu offered. This was cutting their conversation short in a way though Mitsu wasn't sure what she had wanted to say at this point. Probably more of the same, like a broken record.

Taking Mitsu off toward town, the two girls seemed to be gone for hours. It was well passed dark when Shun's phone finally rang, Mitsu's number coming up on the caller ID. The late hour would probably leave one to question what was up, but with Mitsu being with Nyx it was hard to say what was going on.

"Smiles! Thank god!" It wasn't Mitsu's voice on the other end, but Nyx's and her voice sounded rather panicked. "We got jumped in town. Some strange group of guys. Said they had seen Mitsu before with 'the assassin.' I have no idea what they were talking about but they took Mitsu and I've been trying to follow them." Nyx tried to explain in a rush. She had seen the little fight Shun had with the group of thugs outside the concert hall. Why not use it to her advantage? She could even describe them.

"I dunno who they hell they are, they came out of no where! A bald guy with two brutish guys with him. They were heading toward the east district where the warehouses are. I lost them about mid way in and that's when I found Mitsu's phone." Nyx seemed to be out of breath, or at least that was how she sounded. Like she was still running around trying to search. "It's dark now I can't see a ******** thing." She cursed. It wasn't true but it was believable.

The east district seemed rather deserted, not a sole in sight. Hardly any of the lights were working so there were plenty of spots for full cover in the pitch black. It didn't even seem like Nyx was around either but laying on the ground in among a mass of footprints in the dirt, was a phone. Mitsu's phone. There was blood covering the outer cover of the cheap devise and the footprints made it look like a struggle had occurred. Had they taken Nyx too for good measure?

It was hard to say but not long after Shun entered the area, a being stepped out of the shadows. Whoever this person was they were dressed fully from head to toe, an old type of helmet, something like a biker helmet, covering their head. The clothes they wore were very manly though the way they walked wasn't quiet like a guy. In their right hand was a pipe which they brought up to rest on their shoulder as they looked toward Shun, coming to a stop a good distance away. It was hard to tell from the light and angle of which they were standing but it looked like their arm had been injured. Thin gashes running through their sleeve with blood still dripping down their forearm.

The person seemed to judge Shun's words for a moment, thoughtfully tapping the pipe lightly against their shoulder. When it seemed they had made their decision, they drew the pipe away from their body and held it out to their side and toward the ground. In a light flash of magic the pipe shifted in shape, a long sword appearing in its place. There was only a second's pause before the person lunged forward initiating the first attack, making a rather skillful thrust with the blade right at Shun's core.
