"...I see." Victor's head rested against one outstretched palm, yellowed eyes laquidly staring at her, before turning back to Ezekiel. "Then, that means... The reason you chose not to dispose of him was because you felt he was worthless?"
"Yes." Ezekiel said softly. His flesh was pale, the same skin tone as the rest of the figures within the room, as if they'd never seen the light of day. Adorning his face, were the remnants of a bone white mask, with a long gnarled ear poking out on the left side of his head. Closer inspection would reveal that nearly all twenty figures that stood within the room were similar in this aspect.
Each on of them was also garbed in the white suit, each one carrying a sheathed katanna of some sort. Apprarently, from Victor's early comment, they were all related as well.
Ezekiel was by far the most youngest looking, his raven locks and yellowed eyes, baring a stark "Reversed" look to Vahn himself.
"Since there was no possible way he could have stood between us and our goals I felt it was pointless to waste further time with him."

*The aura of power around Ra'kar shivered tangibly... it was if some strong current or tide ebbed and then rushed back in with a pulsing warmth.
The demoness growls low in her throat, her hands clenching over the arms of her throne, her nails grating against the metal and wood, leaving angry furrows like sores against their twisted perfection.*
*The ebony streaks in her hair fade as do the runes and tattoos, all the demonic markings dissipate as a fuming Elf maid glares around the room with hostility , her tail lashing in vexation.
Sierra's wings fan out behind her... the stark darkness of her feathers offsetting the fresh crimson of her ankle length hair that is swirling about her in an incarnadine tempest.
Her gaze settles scathingly on Vahn's twin. Her eyes swallowed by her inner flame... she made no effort to conceal the contempt from her voice, for what she was feeling towards this man.*
"Thank you for showing me where I need to go Victor..."

The last time he was in this city, he was fighting off people ready to kill his travelling partner at the time. This time, he hoped to not get involved with any violence. This was supposed to be a trip for fun, relaxation, and jewelry.
Lazenca walked the streets in his black slacks, black polo, and sandals. He had a duffel bag strapped to his back... a few items he needed for travel; nothing too important. His eyes scanned the stores along this busy street, and he whistled to himself. Yeah, this was going to be a good day.
"So, I wonder who's got the best rings around here?"

Ezekiel raised an eyebrow, visibly surprised at the words that came out of her mouth. Arguably everyone else was more than a little alarmed, but Victor remained unphased.
"And where exactly is it that you need to go?" His head never even bothered turning in her direction, eyes remaining closed, and his whole body relaxed.
The others stood in silence, the tension within the hidden chamber mounting.
Who..is this woman? Ezekiel continued to stare towards her, with his remaining eye. And why...does she seem so familiar?

Silver stared at Mitsuyo, silently contemplating what he had just heard.
That man... HERE? In Latent...? And Kana and Sierra missing? At the same time, right when this guy shows up? It can't be coincidence... there has to be a connection... Mitsuyo must realize that as well...
Slowly Silver sat up, fighting against Mitsuyo's foot still pressed against him.
"Alright, so first things first... we gotta find this guy and Kana and Sierra... which probably won't be hard considering they're all most likely in the same place. We find one of them, we find them all... And the connection to Vahn is too obvious to ignore, so maybe they'll lead us to him..."
He slipped out from underneath's Mitsuyo's foot and off the bed, finding a clean shirt to wear near by.
"I'm going out for a bit to investigate. Let me know if you come up with anything before me..."
With a generally disheveled appearance that normally came with sleeping, Silver headed for the door. It didn't really occur to or bother him what he looked like at the moment, or that he didn't even have any leads or the he probably should ask Mitsuyo for help. Things we're starting to get very bad very quickly, and he wanted answers. Besides, even if he didn't find anything, he needed some fresh air. If what Mitsuyo said were true, he'd been inside for the past two weeks, anyway...

Coincidentally, Reiko was standing outside the house Silver was in. Why? Well if you asked him he'd just say..
"I must be at the wrong house..."
It didn't matter though, he pounded his right fist in his left hand and turned his back to the house while he thought out everything. Now n' days, Reiko didn't have any competition. And his motivation for doing whatever he did was "because."
"Well..."

Silver stepped outside into the bright sun, and took a deep breath, running a hand through his uncut, messy hair.
"Ah... I feel better already. But no time to stand around. I gotta get to the bottom of this--"
Squinting from the glare with his ill-adjusted eyes, and looking about the surrounding area in almost every direction except the one he was actually going, he walked straight into a man standing right outside the house.
"OOF!"

"Hey, you clownshoe."
Reiko turned around after being bumped as step forward and turned around to grab the neck of and lift whoever was behind him with his right hand.
"You're the first person I've seen all day!"
Wut?

"Sorry about that. Hey, who you callin' a Clownsh--GLEGH?!"
Well, he certainly hadn't expected that.
Great, the weirdos are out early today. I just woke up, too. Man, can't a ninja catch a break...?
Silver grabbed at the hand around his neck, frantically trying to get a bearing on what the hell was going. On closer inspection of his aggressor, however, led him to another surprise.
With choked out words, he slowly pointed at the other man with his free hand.
"Hey...! You're... Sakagami Reiko...!"

"No. I am Reiko, The Sakagami man. You must've seen me on TV!"
Because Reiko was a popular guy. Well fighter guy. He just kept falling off the face of the earth for whatever reason. And now he had no money. Which was bad.
"Are you a fan?"
Because he didn't want to trash a fan.

"Hghlgh... whatever... Reiko..."
He took a few moments to gather his thoughts and struggle to breath.
"A fan...? Not exactly... I mean... I used to think... you were pretty cool... but then... you went crazy... and blew up the old stadium... Ergh... the old old stadium... and besides... aren't you... supposed to be... dead? Like... twice by now...? Or at least... a wanted criminal...?"

Reiko released his grip to drop Silver. Then he lifted his cap and scratched his head lightly. Apparently those guys caused more trouble than he thought. Well, no they didn't. But it was cool making everyone scared of him all the time.
"I remember now! But a wanted criminal? No. But aren't you one of those Kyonuske puppets?"
He folded his arms and nodded at his Silver. Last time he saw Silver... well he doesn't really remember.
"And don't you work for Kasuga?"
Reiko unfoleded his arms and pounded his right fist in his left hand again.

Silver hit the ground and staggered back a bit, but managed to remain on his feet. He took several deep breaths while rubbing at his neck.
"Hmph... I'd heard you'd become some sorta crime lord in Durem right before the last time you managed to dissapear completely... at least, that's what our intelligence indicated... I figured someone would be out to get you for that..."
Silver stepped forward, straightening up and dropping his hand.
"I'm surprised you actually remember me. The last time I recall us meeting face to face, I screwed up and you made quick work of me. Before that, you wouldn't even give me a second glance, even when I came to you looking for a fight. All you cared about was Kasuga Kasuga Kasuga..."
Silver sighed and smirked, shaking his head at the same time.
"Yeah, I'm Kyonuske now... 'Kasuga' took me in when I had nowhere else to go..."
He raised his right hand to brush his thumb across his nose with a smile.
"You could say I'm his Number One student now."
Whether that was true or not, he liked to think it was.

"Well this may be hard to believe.. but that was not me. I am the true champion. I never turn down a fight. Unless you want to fight and at the same time a girl wants to play with my wang.. in which case... well you know what I'm sayin'. You know what I'm sayin'?"
Reiko stood there for a second and looked at Silver. Thumb across the nose? Smiling? Boasting Kyonuske? This body language was sending the wrong messages. Or something like that.
"You know that's nothing to brag about.. you say that like he's beaten me before."
And as far as Reiko knew..
"No one has ever beaten me. Not even my mama."

"What? How did that--Eugh! No, I don't know! Nevermind!"
Silver shivered and shook his hands about wildly, focusing the conversation on the other subject.
"Yeah, well, that's your oppinion. The rest of the population believes that Vahn... er... 'Kasuga', has beaten you at least once... but then again, no one really knows what happened that day... you BOTH should be dead... but hey, he made the faster recovery, so, you know..."
Silver shrugged, but then suddenly seemed to become annoyed.
"Wait, speaking of Vahn, I've got something important I need to be doing! What am I doing standing around here wasting time with you, anyway? And what were you doing outside my--"
Silver turned back to look at the modest living arrangements he was sharing with Mitsuyo. He wasn't really sure what to call it.
"... Place that I'm currently living at... Did you need something? If you're looking for Kasuga, he ain't here..."
