Xuza Uriel: "Angel of Death"
Lost? No, she wouldn't say that from her point of view.
Perhaps she had a slight advantage at the point at which they stopped but...
She lost the thought. Her whole body was sore from the impact of whatever he had thrown at her. She regarded the new presence with a touch of confusion and curiosity. Had she seen her before? No... Perhaps not...
"Excuse me," she began at Cho-ko, so nice to bandage her up. "What exactly is going on?" Surely it was all a bit confusing. Xuza could swear she was not the only one who might think this about a sudden entrance like this--not to mention the way she was treated. Because of this, she could barely look at the new face in the room.

 ☸ ☸ ☸R enyoku S hironami G itsune ☸ ☸ ☸ ☸ Sole Heir of the Gitsune Clan Head of Rantō (Chaos Faction) " I've never seen her before. Since the boss called her his mother I guess she's the one who founded the company. She's a real looker that's for sure. " While Cho-Ko moves over to Egil gets the woman makes her way to Xuza. She studies the young miester carefully as if able to see past her physical form. Once satisfied with her inspection she holds out her hand to help Xuza up. " My apologizes for my little Egil's recklessness. If I hadn't come when I did the power he used would have caused irreversible damage to your body. I am Rengyoku Shironami Gitsune. It is a pleasure you finally meet you in person Miss. Xuza. "

Xuza Uriel: "Angel of Death" (Was standing, but no harm no foul)
Her hand was very warm. Whoever this person was--obviously important and easy on the eyes, as established by the lovely assistant whose life itself was something of a technological miracle--but there seemed to be deeper, more resplendent facets to her personality. ... Then again, that type of appearance was exactly what people like herself, professionals, practiced. Regardless, none of it mattered to Xuza in the face of hospitality. A smile came to the meister's face. "Nice to meet you too,
Miss Gitsune..."
She paused a moment to get a better look at her wings. They felt light, and because of the cleaning Ren was able to perform on them, they were dazzling diamond white. "Is that what happened to him?" And furthermore:
"How do you know my name, exactly?"

☸ ☸ ☸R enyoku S hironami G itsune ☸ ☸ ☸ ☸ Sole Heir of the Gitsune Clan Head of Rantō (Chaos Faction) (lol) While Cho-Ko patches up Egil she try's to scan the woman. Much to her surprise her scanners were unable to distinguish anything from the woman. All the came to her eyes were question marks and unknown statuses. Just what was this woman? Meanwhile Ren flashes a warm smile. Even though she loved her children to be more precise they were all extensions of her own being. Therefore, anything they knew and experience was known to Ren. Egil had informed her as soon as he'd picked her up, and she had been watching thier little sparring match from the start. " I make it my business to keep an eye on certain people and groups around the world. Someone in my position can't afford not too. We also have a few mutual friends. Miss.Yakō and her siblings for instance. I'm sure you have many questions. Why don't we discuss this after you have a chance to wash up and recuperate a little. "

Xuza Uriel: "Angel of Death"
Most of what the woman had said was deeply troubling,
especially to a person in Xuza's position--that is, always on the run, looking over one's shoulder, yes, all that. She glanced over to Egil. Guy seemed like he was at the top of all this. The woman, however... --Xuza banished the thought and any disgust that followed it from her mind for the moment. Perhaps this would look better when she felt well. They hadn't exactly harmed her, after all. Unless you count the time she was incinerated... --No. Probably was a technicality. "Sure... I'd like that." She nodded, letting her mix of emotions shuffle out a smile somehow.
(Just gonna let you handle the timeskip)

☸ ☸ ☸R enyoku S hironami G itsune ☸ ☸ ☸ ☸ Sole Heir of the Gitsune Clan Head of Rantō (Chaos Faction) Just like before Cho-Ko accompanies Xuza to the decontamination chamber. As the miester is washed Egil has some food brought to his often while Ren remains out of sight. After one final check up Cho-Ko leads Xuza back to the office. On the way Cho-Ko tries to reconfigure her scanners. As they enter the room Ren finishes setting the table and everyone takes a seat. " Now that everyone is taken care of feel free to dig in. "

Xuza Uriel: "Angel of Death"
Xuza was rather impressed with the hospitality. Whoever these people were, whatever their true purpose was, Xuza was sure it wasn't all that bad. The showers were heavenly, the training facilities were perfect,
and the spread--forget about it.
... Then again, she volleyed with herself internally, they could just be fattening her up for the kill. Why was it she got that vibe? Was it the way they seemed to know everything, know what was best, not accept a certain word associated with refusal? Perhaps. Perhaps she was just enjoying lunch with people who had saved her life--and for what it was worth it was quite good.
"It's actually pretty great!" brightened the meister. "You must've been the one to teach Yako to cook," she concluded.

☸ ☸ ☸R enyoku S hironami G itsune ☸ ☸ ☸ ☸ Sole Heir of the Gitsune Clan Head of Rantō (Chaos Faction) Cho-Ko tries to take another look at Ren but her scans still came up inconclusive. Ren demonor was a tad over powering to some but the Kitsune had no reason to be planning anything involving Xuza. Yakō had vouched for the girl and that was good enough for Ren. The shear fact that Xuza had survived a training session with Decus and Egil had earned the miester some of the foxes respect. Egil chuckles at Xuza's assertion causing Ren to give him a look. " Unfortunately my culinary skills aren't nearly as good as hers. No Yakō's late master was the one who nurtured her skills. The Tengu Witch, Retsuna Nura bless her soul. I simply asked this spread be delivered because my son hardly leaves his lab and has only been ordering junk food. " . Egil blushes from embarrassment and eats with his head down. Cho-Ko chuckles from the other side of the room. This was the first time she had seen Egil act so human. She could only imagine how ruthless his mother was compared to what she'd seen from him.

Xuza Uriel: "Angel of Death"
What!? It was imported?? Xuza almost choked on her (why not?) spring roll. "Are you saying there was somebody who taught Yako how to cook?" Xuza asked, wide-eyed with a slight tremble in her voice. She shook her head almost as soon as she closed her mouth, though.
"Um, that's not what I wanted to say--or at least it's not important to me right now." She readjusted, finding that the wording of such a question was a delicate thing. "I wanna know... if I can trust you guys. Your hospitality is great, and I'm sure you're always great company, but..." Her eyes went down.
How was she going to react if they were her enemies; how would she come to escape if she identified as such and they were in fact as thorough as appeared. "--I need to know what your intentions are. You know everything there is to know about me, I'm sure of it, but I still don't know anything about you." She blinked a couple times, finding it quite difficult to stand so firmly on her convictions in the presence of such an aura that indeed halted the functionality of rooms--changed them too--as soon as it appeared.

☸ ☸ ☸R enyoku S hironami G itsune ☸ ☸ ☸ ☸ Sole Heir of the Gitsune Clan Head of Rantō (Chaos Faction) Cho-Ko pays close attention to the conversation. There were a few questions she needed answers to. If this woman was indeed Egil's mother than just what was she. No mere human could wield a power like that, and Cho-Ko doubted that the woman had augmented her body. Egil eats as if nothing was wrong motioning Cho-Ko to refill his drink. The spread before them was rather exotic as if Ren had picked foods from her sons favorite locations around the world. Ren was delicately eating pieces of sushi and smiled at Xuza's question. After whining her mouth she speaks in a calming motherly tone. " We both know I cannot answer such a loaded question. Weather or not you trust me is ultimately up to you. I admit I have been keeping an eye on you. However, it is only because your connected to a certain someone I belive we would all be better off without. In this world there is is nothing more important to me in this than my friends and family. I had to make sure you weren't a threat to them. " " Even after she found out you sent Miss. Lumina to the hospital It was my mother who asked Miss.Yakō to train you. You want to get back at the witch who cursed yah right? "

Xuza Uriel: "Angel of Death"
"I suppose that's fair..." Xuza wound her mouth, trying to come up with a convincing counter-point. She decided she would only seem more petty if she voiced her true worry. Egil's assertion was interesting as well.
"You know I do... I just--look, I'm sure some of yours are hesitant to accept help." Her eyes fled; the poor girl was just embarrassed now. After a quick huff she rejoined: "... You really have an interest in seeing Paradox gone?"

☸ ☸ ☸R enyoku S hironami G itsune ☸ ☸ ☸ ☸ Sole Heir of the Gitsune Clan Head of Rantō (Chaos Faction) Cho-Ko makes herself a plate and then returns to the corner to eat. It seemed things were getting more interesting by the minute. Ren moves on to some dumplings while Xuza replies. Though she had scoulded her son earlier it had been quite some time since she had a substantial meal. The Kitsune picked up on the meisters frustration. " They have already assisted you. I'm sure you've noticed some improvement after sparing with them. Yakō and Decus think you'll be able to succeed with your own skills. Revenge is usually never a straight line. It's a forest, and like a forest it's easy to lose your way … to get lost … to forget where you came in.
She ruined your life....you want to make her pay for it. Plain and Simple. I chose to help because, philosophically, I'm sympathetic to your aim. "

Xuza Uriel: "Angel of Death"
Already helped me? In the training? I don't know if...
Xuza seemed unable to hold onto her utensil as the silvery-haired maiden spoke her next justification. Circumventing all logic she put forth, just as before, Ren contested Xuza's point with a confidence that did not warrant hard evidence--not that the discussion favored augment leaning on logos anyhow. She nodded slowly, making sure she was following the implications there made by her ladyship that seemed to beg refute. "I see..."
"I'd like to take her out myself," she continued, "but if you really are sympathetic to my goal, then it sounds to me like a very convenient win for both of us." Her face, instead of showing irritation, seemed somewhat bemused: "that ideology--it's not a facade to get me to do your dirtywork,
is it?" Obviously teasing, but the meister was curious about such a philosophical commonground.

☸ ☸ ☸R enyoku S hironami G itsune ☸ ☸ ☸ ☸ Sole Heir of the Gitsune Clan Head of Rantō (Chaos Faction) Cho-Ko continues to eat quietly. This Ren woman was just as crafty and clever as Egil. Xuza might not have picked up on it but Cho-Ko was sure the woman was more than capable of getting rid of this Pardox on her own. Ren laughs at the mild accusation and sips some of her milk-tea. " Well that would imply that I am incapable of dealing with her myself. Revenge is an act of style. For all practical matters, no one is known to come back from the dead after being avenged in the name of justice. However so, a person can fight anything but thier nature. An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, will forever make better grammatical balance than turning the other cheek or letting some else handle your problems. "

Xuza Uriel: "Angel of Death"
Somehow, even though it was about helping and asserting an agreement, Ren's words had turned from confident to arrogant in Xuza's ears. A small wry smile came over her lips. "Well... Revenge would be nice--I can't lie about that, that I want to make this right for me--but just seeing the witch dealt with would be enough justice. As nice as it is to give me a chance to do this myself, I'd rather see her dealt with before she can cause more pain." She switched legs and set her fork on a piece of linen at her side.
"... Is there something too small about Paradox? Why is it that she's someone to keep an eye on, but not a large enough threat to swat with whatever strength you have? Forgive me if I don't automatically praise that type of thinking."
