"Doushite?" Ainsu asked, waiting for the scientist to appear.
~ ~ ~
Arashi blinked in surprise. "Garren-san.... naniyo?!" she asked, seeing his blood dripping down the statue. "It's a staute!" She was reaching out for his hand, in an attempt to stop him.

Garren moved her hands away, shaking his head. "He's my ally." he corrected her. "Just wait, and watch." He poured more blood into his mouth before stepping aside, calling a shadow-shifter. "Bring me a prisoner." he ordered him quickly. "He's going to be hungry." In no time, a man from the Morrigu was brought up in chains, and thrown at the feet of the statue. "Just wait."
Kaguyo shrugged. "He's a bit more... feminine than most males." she tried to explain. "He must have a sister or something... He has a lot of girl clothes about my size. He helped me when I had to distract Aled so Po-ar and you wouldn't be attacked." she wrinkled her nose. "I hated it, but if it meant you were safe, I didn't care. You're the only thing I really have Su-kun."

Arashi winced, "Garren-san... you... you can't possibly be... going to... to feed this man to a... a..." "A demon?" came a voice. The stone cracked and split, exploding to all corners of the room. Standing in the statue's place, was Konton. His wings were folded around his body, protecting him from everything and anything. Blood was on the demon's mouth, and it was obvious that the exertion from escaping his imprisonment had taken it's toll. "Garren... how thoughtful of you to finally take the time to release me." Konton spoke, his eyes narrow.
~ ~ ~
But Ainsu shook his head, "That's not what I meant... Everyone knows of Watari's strange tastes. I meant why did you not think of him." he smiled slightly.

Garren shook his head. "I would've done it sooner if I had had a clue." he admitted with a bow. "It's good to see you're back.... I've been making sure to keep you hidden from the others, however." he added, looking up. "I've tried multitudes of spells... Naturally, none of them worked. I figured that if this didn't work, nothing would." He wasn't afraid of the demon. "Nagaroi is still dead." he added, shaking his head. "I have a lot to catch you up on."
"Oh!" Kaguyo blushed, laughing. "I don't know! I was too worried about you I suppose." she smiled shyly. "Plus he's been having a rough day... I didn't want to give him or anyone else for that matter a headache."

Konton's eyes narrowed, "Including, who this holy woman is." he spoke, glancing to Arashi. "She reeks of banishment..." Arashi blinked, but she didn't say anything. In truth, he was quite frightening...
~ ~ ~
"Ah." Ainsu replied with a slight smile. "I doubt you are giving him a headache, Kaguyo." "Indeed, you aren't." Watari replied with a bow, standing in the doorway. "Ainsu-sama, you called for me?" Ainsu nodded, "Hai... I would like you to tie Kaguyo's obi." "With pleasure." the scientist smiled, coming to stand behind Kaguyo and begin the delicate tying process.

Garren shook his head. "No, she stays." he spoke firmly, but without arrogance. "You know I'm trying to bring Nagaroi back. She can sense Cauldron pieces.... Without her, it'll be impossible to find it. She's my ally. As holy as she is, I'm not exactly profane either, depending on who's side you're on." he reminded. He wrapped an arm over the woman's shoulders and pulled her close. "She's my responsibility. Don't you worry about that. She's safe. It's been a few months, unfortunately." he frowned. "Besides, if you think she's holy, you haven't met Morrigan's and Po-ar's kid. Like I said, you have a lot to catch up on."
Kaguyo smiled. "Still.." she shook her head. "I don't want to be a burden. He's had a worse day than I did, initially..." she glanced back at him. "At least no one's hit me..." Once he was finished, she gave him a hug. "Thank you, Oniisan." she smiled meekly. "If I had a brother, I would want him to be like you."

Konton hissed, his attention moving to the prisoner. The demon's wings unfolded as he reached out, grasping the prisoner by the throat and inspecting him. "They have a child? Disgusting..." Konton spoke before biting deeply into the prisoner's neck. "Chotto!" Arashi said, trying to pull out of Garren's grasp. "Garren-san, you can't let him do that." The demon laughed, licking the blood from his lips as he folded his wings around the prisoner, keeping him close..
~ ~ ~
Smiling, Watari bowed. "I am stronger than I let on." he replied softly. "Don't worry about me, Kaguyo-chan." "Hai, Watari can take a few hits." Ainsu spoke up, his gaze locking with Watari's. "Tell me... how's your cure coming along?" The scientist frowned, "Not well, Ainsu-sama... The tissue samples I gained from you have shown no change."

"Let me put it this way.... Would you rather it be him, or you?" Garren whispered, glancing down at her. "Look, I don't really have a choice. He's a Morrigu anyhow. Enemy, not friendly. I intend for you to stick around for a while hun." He glanced back to Konton, nodding. "Yes, actually they do... However, Morrigan's dead. Herne is bargaining with Po-ar for the capture of another, very important prisoner actually." he mused. "It's been quite chaotic without you here."
Kaguyo sighed. "I told Su-kun that Morrigan's cauldron might be a good bet if the tissue is dead at least." she crossed her arms. "He can't have the arm removed. I suspect he had a premonition of sorts." she murmured, inspecting it carefully. "A cure for dead tissue...well... that would basically be like gaining immortality."

"Bargain?" Konton asked, continuing to devour the Morrigu prisoner. The captive's screams had long since stopped. "Why not kill the Tarnb-jin outright? I won't have him alive, Garren. Po-ar is the key to my destruction."
~ ~ ~
Watari nodded, "Which is why I'm having such a problem with it." he looked up to Ainsu. "A premonition, Ainsu-sama?" "Hai. Of what will happen is my arm is removed." the playwright replied.

Garren nodded. "Alright then." he spoke softly.
**Herne, I'm sure you sensed it, but Konton's awake. Dispose of Po-ar as well... He can't be allowed to live.**
Kaguyo listened intently, frowning. "What happened?? What did you see?"

Smirking, Konton began to devour the prisoner, bit by bit, though the grotesque display was hidden by his wings from Garren or Arashi's sight. But the sound wasn't... "When Po-ar is dead..." the demon spoke between bites. "Then I just have to destroy Ashuri... but then again... that boy could be a problem as well."
~ ~ ~
"The world in flames." Ainsu spoke, releasing Kaguyo and leaving the room. He clearly didn't want to talk about it. Sighing, Watari looked to the woman. "Don't feel bad, Kaguyo-chan." he spoke, making sure her obi was tied right. "I know why Ainsu-sama won't allow me to take the arm... but it'll eat him alive..."

Kaguyo tilted her head. "You know a lot of secrets Watari-kun.... Why won't he let it go? Is it really that serious?"
Garren nodded. "The boy's been a huge problem, actually. Remember Morrigan's holy ability?? I'm sure you do. You got to meet a goddess firsthand." he frowned. "And you remember how you just said that Po-ar was a great weakness to you?" It wasn't hard to figure out what happened when they both had a kid. "Combine them together and multiply by three."

Watari nodded, "Ainsu-sama's arm contains a muse." he replied seriously. "Which is why, when you were telling me about choosing between Ainsu and Aled, why Ainsu wasn't... isn't... as romantic as you'd think he is, given him being a playwright and poet. The muse creates his works, lives through him... it's like having two people in the same body." the scientist sighed, shaking his head. "However, with the arm dead, the muse is enraged. If the arm is gone... the muse will escape and wreck havoc on Tarnbsei."
~ ~ ~
Konton hissed angrily, "Then the child will have to be destroyed." he spoke, unfolding his wings. The demon's mouth was covered in blood.

Garren nodded. "Naturally." he sighed. "He wouldn't like you much anyhow. He's a feisty troublemaker. You'd hate him. Still hungry?" he raised an eyebrow. "You've had a rough few months my friend."
Kaguyo blinked, before sitting down. Damn, she really had a knack for finding everyone except the normal people, didn't she..? Aled had been more or less schizophrenic... And now she discovered her other lover had a dark entity of sorts (at least as of now) living in the marrow of his bones. Awesome. She couldn't really speak for a long while, turning everything over in her head. "And what if he dies?"

"Being sealed in stone is enough to make me wish to eat an entire city." Konton replied, stretching his wings. Arashi was watching him in slight fear at that remark. "Tell me, Garren... once Herne has gotten this new prisoner, what are your plans?"
~ ~ ~
Watari sighed, "If Ainsu-sama dies... the muse dies. Simple as that."
