Courtyard and Pond

[Darkie Ramirez Werepyre]

☯☯ Kanakami started to breathe a little easier as the armored man seemed to accept the terms of the deal they had struck, feeling the force holding her to the tree fade away.
Dusting the dirt from her clothing, she looked up to him, hearing him thank her, about to say something else, but stopped a moment, and corrected his sentence with the word 'human.'
She could've sworn he had almost called her a 'monkey' or something, but shook her head a bit, keeping the stone-hard look on her face.
He then repeated his thanks, saying that she had no idea of the amount of energy and pain he had to surpass all day, his metallic voice seeming to express gratitude.
It seemed that within that short a period of time, the two had gone from battling and shouting insults to playing nice and acting like friends.
" Eh, no problem," Kana said, her tone still blunt, but was slightly more friendly sounding than before, from how he spoke of everything he went through the whole day, it sounded like a lot.
She held Dakramath at her side, and, with a simple snap of her fingers. she dispelled the magic, and the scythe dissipated into a small cluster of dark energy, returning to her.
The armored man then said that they should go now, and saying for her to lead the way.
Kana nodded, " Righty-o then, let's get going," and, with those words, she turned around, starting to lead him away from the courtyard and to the dorms, glancing back once.
As much as she didn't want to leave Axel fighting with the ghost alone, she had to lead the armored man to the dorms so that he could rest, now that they had put the pointless fighting behind them, for now. ☯☯

(gah! now i feel lame for not posting.)

That was the opening Paine was looking for, she rushed at Axel. Swing the blades that were left, aimed directly at his chest. Though it wasn't as it seemed. Paine's eyes twirling faster at what was to come.

Axel knew by giving up his defensive position, he was going to be open to Paine's attacks. Axel was also almost blind, only thing he had left was his ability to feel energy. 'dammit how i hate being blind!' he started to block with his chakram, unsure of where the hit was coming. He didn't expect the flare of pain the erupted across his chest.

Paine excitedly giggled, Almost lost in her own world. Though she hadn't missed Talnar and Kana's little moment. Paine could care less about the insolent mechanical elf, for all she cared that girl could of killed him. Whether or not Tal had realized it, Paine had pulled a fast one on Talnar. Once she had found this cat, it had been all over. If she couldn't kill Tal, why not go for the next best thing. Hopefully this boy would become one of her many lost and 'willing' souls. He was a Bastet to boot, one of the rarest spiritual creatures.What luck that he was blind and didn't understand his potential. Paine's eyes stopped twirling and her smile got wider, 'Bye Tal....see you in the afterlife.....and until next time, girl ' Paine thought to herself, not caring if Tal heard or not. "Kitty, Kitty lost an' lonely, what will you do when no one will protect you?" She couldn't want to tear him to pieces. Slowly Paine started to advance, liking the solitude of there fight, it was very intimate.

Axel gripped his chest with his free hand, it was getting harder to breathe. Each breath brought pain, his body and muscles were hurting. He didn't think this would happen the first day of entering Mitomi, if Axel had know he would have continued to live his hidden and partially miserable life in the real world. The sound out two other foot steps; fading, made him realize it was just like outside these walls. Axel's ears went back, still breathing heavily. "You can rely only on yourself." Axel's voice filled with anger and jaded opinions of the world. His milky eyes seemed to flicker as he kicked his shoes off. "What i know best, You figment-ed phantasm." Axel threw the chakram directly at Paine, giving him enough time to force a change into his werecat form and making a break towards the forest. his stuff would be fine, right now he was more worried about living through this encounter to fight again.

What Axel had said was not what Paine wished to hear. "I'll enjoy taking my time with you!!!!" Paine's eyes spun violently as she raised her voice in anger, malice and venom dripping from her voice. She almost missed the fact that Axel had threw the Chakram at her. Paine barely moved out of the way as it nicked her cheek. Paine turned back and Axel was gone, headed towards the forest. "Fine let's play that GAME!" She ran after Axel as fast as physically possible for her.

Six had got fed up with the service and the 'atmosphere', if you could call it that! He had found his way on to Mitomi's grounds. What he was looking for was in this school. Six knew this, since he had been chasing his recent prey through most of the forested areas and found no trace of his new target. As far as he knew the 'she' wouldn't be staying in town, too many humans for 'her' to be comfortable. Even though the school would be the same, it would be easier for 'her' to hide. Six understood Tengu's well, he had hunted one for close to 7 years through that damn sea of trees. Learned about common routines and quirks they had. They are champions at camouflage and never leave any trace of their existence.

Six twirled the feather around his finger tips. There was many smells around this area. Metal, blood, some sort of two toned creature. He inhaled again. "Strange." Six's voice said, showing no interest in these smells. There was also a fox, scorched earth, and another cat. He scrunched up his nose. "Feh, I hate other cats." He spat out, in an angrily fashion. Six had found the court yard, this was where the scents were the strongest. Blood seemed to be sprayed in certain areas, mostly around what appeared to be weaponry and a pair of shoes. "Stupid domestic cat, doesn't understand how to fight...." Six growled out, he walked towards the blade in the ground. "What point did this have in the ground?" His attention then was pulled towards the blade in a wall. "Poor form, this was a wasted throw..." Six critiqued, he walked over to the shoes. An evil grin came over Six's features. He kicked one of the shoes into the near by pond and threw the shoe into a near by shoe. "heheheh, shouldn't have left your sh*t lying around, newbie..." Six chuckled darkly and continued on his way.

Six's target wasn't anywhere near here, might as well inconvenience a 'fellow' cat. He continued onwards, hope to just run into anyone who could point him in the right direction of 'her'. The thought bringing forth a cheshire like grin to his face.

The trio had made their way back to Mitomi's on campus grounds, and had entered the courtyard and pond area.
Tenshi glanced around, grinning as he took in the scents of all the fruit trees, noticing how some of them didn't look like normal trees.
Some had rather unusually shaped leaves or fruits, some looked like crystals or strange, oblong figures, Tenshi wondered if trees like those only grew here or if they could grow in other places too.
As they approached more towards the area with the koi pond, a strong scent of slightly stale blood radiating from close by.
The first thing the wolf samurai noticed was that a strange weapon of some sort was sticking out of the ground, and, sure enough, blood was splattered in a few areas.
" Great bloody blue bollocks," muttered Tenshi, a frown on his face as he scanned the area, " Wot 'appened 'ere? Looks like a bloody wreck!"
Walking over towards the piece of weaponry on the ground, the samurai examined it, wondering why it was stuck in the ground like that.
He wasn't sure what it was, it looked to be some sort of circular weapon, with pointed spikes all around on it, with four smaller circles spread out in a pattern that was slightly reminiscent of a compass.
Grabbing it, being careful not to stab his hand on one of the spikes, Tenshi took a deep breath and tugged on it to pull it out of the ground.
It took a couple tries, but he managed to succeed, huffing a bit as he looked it over, then walked over to Axel, holding it out to the Bastet, " Dis b'long t' you, mate?"
Tiamek was thinking about what Axel had told her, that no one in the school shared the same ability.
She nodded a bit to him in agreement, smiling a bit, " I see, though variety is good, right?"
The kitsune princess hadn't let go of their companion's hand the whole time, though she didn't mind, really.
As the approached the spot, the smell of the stale blood hit Tiamek's nose, and she stopped, simply staring at the scene before it, pulling her lips taut as she stood there.
She could see some sort of odd weapon sticking up from the ground, with a few splattered areas of dry blood around it, signs that a fight had occurred here earlier.
Though one wouldn't normally think so, with how peaceful this area seemed overall.
As Tenshi went over to pull up the weapon from out the ground, Tiamek looked around, seeing another weapon similar to the one near Tenshi, except it was stuck in the trunk of a tree.
When the wolf samurai came back with the weapon in hand, asking if it was Axel's as he handed it to the Bastet, Tiamek raised a hand and pointed over to the other weapons, " I can see another one, stuck in that tree over there," she said to him, before looking to Axel, " Is it normal for fights to happen here? In this particular area, I mean..." she asked, tilting her head to him with a concerned look on her face.

X{♪}Courtyard conundrum?
Walking along the walkway around the lake, Mariya was in her way towards the main school buildings for breakfast. She usually just ate when she felt like, and it was no different just now... she was hungry, and down to her last few bars of peanut brittle, one of which wouldn't last another 5 minutes as she bit another chunk off to crunch on.

Upon reaching the courtyard, Mariya noticed that she wasn't alone, and that this was no ordinary morning... There was blood sprays over several feet long, and gouges in the earthed areas that suggested there was more than a light scuffle here. The weapons embedded around the area just solidified that idea. As for characters standing obliviously in what looked like a medieval CSI scene, she didn't know...
"You know zhis doesn't look like great place to hang around in!" Mariya shouted over to the group. True she herself was curious, but those weapons looked expensive, and whoever the belonged to would more than likely want to come back for them, if they weren't dead from blood loss by the looks of it. Then again, it was probably a bad move to leave them sitting around like that. Either way, one was in possession of the wolf looking guy... And he didn't look like the type for such a weapon...
"You know, you should not take vhat is not belonging to you... Just saying." She shouted as she got closer. not realising that they belonged to the wolfs friend.

 

[Moonlights_Avenger]

As they approached the courtyard Axel got a whiff of his blood. There was a lot of blood and the smell of the trees only made it smell weirder. Just the thought of how much of his blood was splattered around the courtyard made him queasy. His mind drifting to Kaya, wondering if she was doing okay with the Tin man. Axel's ears moved up and towards Tenshi. "Well she did hit me pretty good. I most likely would have died if you two hadn't come along." Axel said in a monotone voice. His tail flicking angrily for a second at a thought, but calmed down as he looked at Tiamek, nodding in agreement. Axel quickly moved to watch Tenshi walk over to something. Most likely his blade, before he could protest Tenshi was going for it. Axel was aware that his chakrams were pretty dangerous with all of the sharp edges. He tried to not chuckle at Tenshi's huffing.

Axel's head turned towards the sound of a shout. His ears flatting against his head and tail flicking wildly. He hadn't smelled or heard the stranger approach. Honestly the female stranger had startled him. Axel had thought it had been Paine, having just found him again. that was a big disadvantage to being blind, it's harder to recognize one person from another. Although the 'no energy signal' should of clued him in and her accent. Axel reluctantly returned his gaze to Tenshi and one of his blades. "Yep, it does." Axel said taking the blade, scrunching his nose up for a second. There was another cat's smell on his blade, the smell must have been obscured by the blood. Axel was very territorial over his things, it didn't help that it was another male cat. Axel looked back towards the stranger, one ear lifting up in curiosity at her. "It's fine.....they're mine...." Just to kind of prove his point spun the blade in his hand, Axel barely moving his fingers to get it started spinning. It was a trick he had taught himself, it was impressive and came in handy when panhandling. He quickly stopped the blade quickly and looked at Tiamek as she spoke. Axel tried to look at where she was pointing, but failed to see the blade. "That's good to know. I don't think fighting is common in this area. It wouldn't be healthy for the fish in the pond." Axel said looking towards the sound of the water for a second.  

[Darkie Ramirez Werepyre]

Tenshi looked to Axel as the Bastet started to speak about how 'she' had hit him pretty good, and figured he had been talking about the ghost girl, aka crazy b***h, from before.
He nodded in agreement when the feline said he most likely would've died if they hadn't come along, " 'Ey, no' a problem, mate!" he said, smiling a bit.
After getting the strange weapon out of the ground, Tenshi walked over to the Bastet to hand it over, when shouting came from nearby, saying that this didn't look like a great place to hang around.
" Wot in the 'ell?" muttered the wolf samurai, looking over to see some sort of blue-haired girl making her way over to them, shouting to him that he shouldn't be taking what didn't belong to him.
Her voice seemed odd, as if she had a... German accent?
His attention was brought back to Axel as the Bastet took back the weapon, and saying to the stranger that they were his.
" Aye, was jes' gettin' it fer my frien' 'ere," Tenshi said, turning to face the blue-haired woman, " So jes' cool yer jets, eh?"
He looked to Tiamek as she said there was another one stuck in a tree, pointing over at said weapon.
Tenshi nodded and walked over to it, nodding to the blue-haired female a moment before starting to pull on the weapon, being careful of the sharp edges, to get it out of the tree.
Tiamek had looked to Axel when he nodded to her in agreement, though his tail was flicking angrily a little before he had done so.
When Tenshi came over to return the odd looking weapon to the Bastet, a strange female's voice sounded out, shouting towards the group.
The kitsune princess jumped a little, the sudden appearance of the blue-haired girl had freaked her out for a moment, Axel seeming to react the same way, his ears flat against his head and his tail flicking about rapidly.
Axel reassured the girl that the strange weapons were his, spinning the one he had just taken from Tenshi to prove his point.
" What manner of strange weapons are these? I don't believe I've seen anything like them before," Tiamek asked, watching as he stopped the blade with such skill, she was quite impressed.
When she had pointed out the location of the second one, Axel looked in the direction, as if trying to pinpoint exactly where she was looking at, saying that it was good to know, and that he didn't think fighting was common in this area, it wouldn't be healthy for the fish in the pond.
She nodded to him, glancing in the direction of the koi pond, " True, as long as they aren't hurt..."
The kitsune then looked in the direction of the blue-haired female with the odd accent, it sounded close to Tenshi's, though it was a bit harder to pick up on.
" Who are you?" Tiamek asked, tilting her head to the new stranger as Tenshi went over to pull the second weapon out of the tree.

X{♪}Putting your foot in like usual...

It seemed Mariya had annoyed them slightly. Not something unusual, she had a habit of annoying people and if she was being honest, it's not something that she cared about either.
"Oh, sorry I apologise, I believed you vere stealing zhose. Either vay, I believe it is best you do not hang around for long." Mariya advised as she came to stand next to animal eared female. She was around the same height, maybe a shorter than Mariya though her ears and hair made up for that...
The three seemed a little tense, had Mariya stumbled into something she shouldn't have? The guy with the whited eyes had quite a few rips and tears to his clothes, some blood stains too... Was this his fault?
"To further answer your question, no. Duels between student usually happen in special area in school. Fights outside of area are usually not planned..." She added to the red haired guys answer. If she was thinking correct, then it added up that this guy had been attacked, or had been attacking... This guy had been in some trouble.








((Yeaaahh, so I've not bothered reading any of the posts relating to what's just happened other than the descriptions of the scene, so I'm working off if guesses here haha! Figured that's what Mariya would be doing anyway...))  

[Moonlights_Avenger]

Axel watched Tenshi move to look at the stranger. He listened to Tenshi's respond to the stranger. Axel still followed Tenshi with head as he walked over towards his other blade. Axel thought he should go help him, but Axel realized that he was still holding Tiamek's hand. "Hey Tenshi, grab the cross in center of the circle. It's much easier to pull it from there." Hoping that might help him.

Axel felt Tiamek jump at the voice as well. He was glad he wasn't the only one who got frightened the strange girl. Axel looked at Tiamek as she spoke. "Oh um, they are known as chakrams. They kind of are curricular blades which were i used for close combat and i think throwing. They aren't everyday weapons, highly unusual even to me." Axel said with a chuckle, he knew how to use them, but not much else. Axel then turned to watch as the stranger walked up next Tiamek. Axel's ears moved to listen to the stranger defend her thinking. He was trying to 'see' her, the sound of her voice gave him a general idea of where she was. Axel's misty green eyes were focused more on her lips than anywhere else, although they were rapidly moving around.  

[Darkie Ramirez Werepyre]

Tenshi glanced over to the blue-haired female, hearing her apologize, and say that she thought he had been stealing the weapons, and that she still believed it was best they don't stay around here.
" 'Ey, no' a problem, mate," said the wolf samurai, smiling to her, " An easy misjudgment t' make, eh?"
He was still working on getting the weapon stuck in the tree out, glancing over to the others momentarily as the blue-haired female went over to stand next to Tiamek.
As the three talked with each other, the wolf samurai kept at pulling the strange weapon stuck in the tree, though it was wedged in there pretty good.
Growling slightly in frustration, Tenshi tugged on it again, his ears swiveling as Axel said to him to grab the cross in the center of the circle, and that it was much easier to pull it out from there.
He looked over to Axel and nodded, " Right, gotcha mate!" he replied back, taking his hand off the part of the weapon he'd been pulling on before.
His paw-hands being bandaged, Tenshi was spared from having any red marks from it, though the pain from pulling was still there.
Looking back to the weapon, the wolf samurai took a deep breath, before grabbing onto the cross in the circle's center, as Axel had described it, and pulled with all his might.
Sure enough, the lodged part began to loosen, slowly at first, but then, with one last pull, the weapon came free of the tree, causing Tenshi to stumble backwards and fall down on his butt slightly.
" Bollocks," he muttered to himself, using his sword and Axel's weapon to stand back up again, brushing his robes off before going over to the group, hearing Axel explain to Tiamek that the odd weapons were called chakrams.
Tenshi held out the second chakram to the Bastet, smiling, " 'Ere's yer otha 'chakram,' mate," he said, before turning to the blue-haired girl, " Min' tellin' us who ya are?" he asked her, wondering who she was, though he did agree that they shouldn't stay around here for too long.
Tiamek kept her eyes on the blue-haired female as she apologized to Tenshi, saying that she thought he was trying to steal Axel's weapons, though the samurai said it was no problem, an easy misjudgment on his part.
The new female came over to stand next to her, and the kitsune princess looked over at her a moment, studying the girl over, and wondering why her hair was blue, of all colors.
Her ears flicked as the girl added on to Axel's previous answer concerning the fights here, saying that duels between students usually happened in a special area in school, and that fights outside of said are aren't usually planned.
" That would somewhat explain why our friend here was being pursued by that crazed witch girl when we met him in the forest," Tiamek said, nodding to the blue-haired female as Axel called out some advice to Tenshi, who had been trying to pull the second weapon out of the tree.
Her attention was redirected to the Bastet as he said that the weapons he had were called chakrams, explaining them as circular blades which he used for throwing and close combat.
Axel said chakrams weren't everyday weapons, and that they were highly unusual, even to himself.
" Chakrams..." Tiamek repeated, engraving the word into her mind, " They are quite unusual weapons, there certainly aren't any weapons like those back in the feudal era..."
Chakrams did seem almost like swords, maybe her people could've invented an idea for them, though probably believed katanas were good enough for now.
She looked over to Tenshi as he successfully dislodged the second chakram from the tree, falling on his butt in the process, before getting up and bringing the chakram back to Axel, as well as asking the blue-haired female who she was.



(( Gaaaaah, rushed post is rushed x3 ))

These definitely were an odd bunch... a wolven samurai wearing funeral robes, and an Aussie accent? Nope, not quite... A cockney. Seems this particular character was from London of all places. Not that she could say anything to that being a Russian American... Oh the joys of different accents!
"Pursued... Surely buildings are safer Zhan forest? And I am Mariya Vorbiev. Student here vor a number of years." She replied looking towards the green eyed cat guy on the other side of the animal eared girl. He seemed to be looking everywhere at once, yet not looking anywhere at all... It was weird, actually it was freaky! And he kept looking over at her too, as did the animal eared girl, though she looked to be more entranced by Mariya's hair.
"It is dyed, not natural... So, Who are you people? You are students yes?" Mariya quizzed looking the three up and down. she could see that the wold guy and the animal eared girl could possibly know each other, though that was just an assumption based on their features... but who was the weird guy with the eyes? Did they know him too, or was this just some big early morning gathering point for the animal freaks?

She looked down at the Chakrams, they looked like something from her history books, though the ones she remembered were not called Chakram, an were generally used from horseback...

 

[Moonlights_Avenger]

Axel's ears went back as Tenshi responded to his advice. He was kind of worried that the samurai might hurt himself. Axel watched him carefully, but didn't move his head to watch him. Nice thing out seeing energy, you didn't have to move your head to watch people. You just focus more on their energy than others. Although this new girl was really messing with him every time she talked. "You would think so, but when your pursuer is a ghost it gets harder to hide from them in buildings." Axel answered the girls question about hiding in buildings. He needed to find his cane, that would help him out. Axel's ears shot up and his tail moved about as Tenshi fell over. "You okay?" Axel said as he took his eyes off of the girl to look at Tenshi. He saw that he was fine, which was good. Axel would have felt horrible if anything happened to him. It was his weapon and his fault the blade was in the tree. Axel smiled and nodded at Tenshi as he handed him his other weapon, muttering a small thank you. He took both blades in the one hand, carefully placing them in a strap on his hip. When she said her name Axel almost didn't catch her name. He cocked his head to the side at the girl as she explained that her hair color was dyed. He of course couldn't see the color, but wonder what color it was. "Yes i believe we are all students, I'm Axel. I'll let these two introduce themselves. Also if you see a cane, a guitar care or a pair red sneakers around here, can you point them out to me." Axel said, hoping this girl understood sneakers and Guitar case since Axel would possibly have to explain them to Tiamek and Tenshi.

(You did pretty good with what's going on, but be aware axel looks like a werecat right this second.)  

[Darkie Ramirez Werepyre]

Tenshi had heard Axel ask if he was okay after having fallen down when he pulled the second chakram from the tree.
" Aye, jest fine," he replied, giving a nod as the Bastet said a small thanks to him after handing him back his weapon.
His ears flicked about as the blue-haired girl asked if buildings were safer than the forest, taking note of her accent, which he had mistaken for German at first, but, listening closer now, it sounded more like a Russo accent.
The girl introduced herself as Mariya Vorbiev, and said that she was a student here for a number of years.
" Ya don' say..." Tenshi remarked, hearing Axel say that you would think buildings were safer than a forest, but not so much when your pursuer was a ghost.
' God damn ghosts...' thought the samurai grudgingly, looking to Tiamek, who was taking Mariya into account, seemingly fascinated by the strange blue color of her hair.
Mariya explained that her hair was dyed, and it wasn't her natural hair color, and asking who they all were and if they were students.
Tenshi glanced to Axel as the Bastet introduced himself first, and said that if anyone saw a cane, a 'guitar case,' or a pair of red sneakers around the area, if they would point out the locations of these items to him.
" Students? Eh, I guess ya can say dat, since we are 'ere," said the samurai, shrugging a little, before nodding to Mariya, " Th' name's Tenshi Muramoto, studen' 'ere fer...a week, aye, let's go wit dat."
Maybe Mariya could help them with understanding things around here as well, since she had been here for so long, though that was just his assumption right now.
" A cane, y'say, mate?" asked Tenshi, looking over to Axel again and tilting his head.
He knew full well what a 'cane' was, since most of the richer folk back in England carried one around when they wanted to walk all fancy-like in the streets.
Tenshi couldn't really see any importance in carrying a cane around all the time for rich folk, but for blind folk, it made sense.
Turning around to scope out the area, the samurai's eyes fell on a strange, black rod-like object that was laying sideways in the grass a bit of a distance away from the blood-spattered ground was, " Dat it ova dere, mate?" he asked, walking over towards it to see if it was what he thought he had seen.
Tiamek's ears flickered as the blue-haired stranger introduced herself as Mariya Vorbiev, a rather strange name, as well as her accent.
Being from Japan, an island out in the sea, they were basically outcasts from the mainland, though, when the demons struck, people of several nationalities came to Japan to help defend it.
In fact, she believed she had met someone at the dojo Tenshi trained at who spoke with a similar accent as Mariya.
Her attention refocused as the blue-haired girl explained that her hair was dyed, and that it wasn't a naturally occurring hair color.
Tiamek had heard of using plant dyes to add color to fabric, though over time, the dyes would fade out, or leech out when wet, though perhaps a different type of dye had been used to make the blue in Mariya's hair.
When Mariya asked who they were, and if they were students, Axel introduced himself first, followed by Tenshi.
" I am Keiko Asagani," said the kitsune when it came to be her turn, " Though I also go by Tiamek, a pleasure to meet you, Mariya~" she said, giving a respectful bow out of slight habit.
Tiamek merely nodded in agreement as the wolf samurai said that he guessed they were students here, her ears flicking up as Axel asked Mariya if she could point out a cane, a 'guitar case,' or a pair of sneakers if she saw them.
The kitsune had no idea of what a 'guitar case' was, though Tenshi seemed to have already found the cane, as for the sneakers...
She glanced back to Mariya, then to Axel, glancing over as a rather large, oddly shaped object was sitting in the grass near the blood-splashed area, it was rather big, and black, it certainly wasn't too hard to miss.
" Is that strange-looking object over there a 'guitar case'?" Tiamek asked, pointing over towards the object that had caught her eye with her free hand, the other hand still holding onto Axel's.

X{♪}Enough with blood, I wasnt food!

Mariya nodded to Keiko in reply to her bow, bowing wasn't her thing but she understood the meaning behind it.
"And yes, It is guitar case. Used for holding instrument usually." She confirmed and carefully walked through the bloodied grass to retrieve it.

It was... Heavy? No, off balance. whatever was in this wasn't a guitar and definitely didn't take up the same room as a guitar despite its weight. It wasn't in her nature to pry though, personal stuff is personal after all. What was in her nature was breakfast! And for her to stop and help people out of choice was pretty uncommon, especially if it got in the way of her own plans!

Mariya walked back over and sat the odd weighing guitar case down next to Axel cat and let out a gentle sigh.
"So, I WAS going to breakfast before I stopped to investigate. You three are hungry?" She moaned casually, staring at the sky as she wobbled in circles on the spot. Mariya was loosing interest with what had happened here, mostly because there wasn't MORE bloodshed! Nothing like a good fight to work up an appetite.






((Aren't accents a riot to type in XD I NEVER feel like I'm getting them right lol. Typing Mariyas out is going to need some tweaking....))  

[Moonlights_Avenger]

Axel watched as Tenshi introduced himself to Mariya. Axel was still wondering where his shoes got off to. He had left them right in the middle of the courtyard, but they weren't anywhere to be seen. The wind blew for a second, the horrid smell of the other cat wafted through, Axel scrunched up his nose. Axel growled lightly in his throat for a second, but quickly stopped realizing what he was doing. Axel looked at Tenshi as Tiamek was introducing herself, he nodded to answer his question about the cane. Axel's ears perked up at his question. "Probably, you could hand it to me I could tell you then." Axel said rubbing the back of his head. Axel's attention was brought back to Tiamek and Mariya as Tiamek bowed, he felt his hand dip down a little, he had forgot about them still holding hands. They probably looked like a couple holding hands, which was an odd thought for him. He just meet her a few hours ago, he wasn't even sure how he felt or anything, but.....feh he needed to stop thinking about that. Girls did tend to do that to Axel.

Axel looked at where Tiamek was pointing, he of course couldn't see it very well. Axel looked to where Mariya was, missing her moving for a second. Which he had to whip his head towards her voice. As Mariya picked up the case, he heard the stone statue bump against the sides. He was glad to know that other male cat hadn't messed with his case. "Thanks..."
Axel said carefully placing a hand on the guitar case. It always made him feel better to have the statue close to him and this was the most convenient way to carry it. When Mariya mentioned breakfast, Axel's stomach growled loudly. He wrapped his free arm around his abdomen. "I could go for something to eat....." Axel could care less for his shoe as long as he had his cane and guitar case. All so as long as he stayed in his were form, there really wasn't a reason for him to wear his shoes. "I could always find my shoes later."
