when a city starts to crumble ( might be mature)

Penance was surprised that her blade peirced her armor." Dont you dare!" shouted Kurobara as he kicked her out of the way. he then grabbed Yugo and threw him into her. he got on his knees and begun to heal Penance" I dont this...she just hurt me...I can heal myself. his super regernative healing power was increaed hundred times over with kurobara's help

Kira's eyes bugged out.

Kurobara... HE'S your friend??

She tried to disentangle herself from Yugo's limbs but she got trapped under his arm

Kurobara nodded" yeah...he just has some issues...you can't kill him...cus if you do..I'll kill you." a blade formed out of his palm, as he held it. Penance then slowly walked away"I..need some rest" he said slowly fading into the night

Yugo got up and looked at Kurobara." we didn't know...Calm down" Kurobara then placed his sword into his palm, as it seemed to merge within."I want to help overcome his pain..." kurobara fell to his knees

Kira growled a bit as a sword grew from Kurobara's hand.

If he is your friend, and Yugo is your friend, why have you not told your friends to not kill each other?

Her voice was a hiss. She calmed down considerably when the blade disappeared back into his skin, but her face still betrayed her anger.

Stayed on the ground" because...it was the first time I saw him in years...and I didn't want to burden Yugo with my goal..." he said as Yugo looked at Kira." did you notice any weird about the armor he was wearing?" asked Yugo thinking about it

Kira nodded thoughtfully.

It looked more like a second skin... And there was no way for him to see out of it.

Kira's head snapped up and she looked at Yugo.

Do you think he's psionic?

"must be...that mask..it would have been a weakness to others...but he still saw us...how do stop someone who gets more power from pain?" Yugo looked at Kurobara"he is...but its still only activated subconsciously...if he finds out that he is psychic too...then we are screwed" sighed Kurobara, getting off the ground

Kira muttered an expletive under her breath.

Well then how in the hell ar we supposed to beat this bastard???

Her voice was exasperated, her teeth clenched.

"we dont have to fight him...let me talk to him...I can make him see" replied kurobara, looking down

Kira raised an eyebrow at him.

You think you can convince him?

"I can try...but if I cant...I can kill him" said Kurobara.yugo frowned." I know what your thinking Kuro...dont even put that in your head" he replied with anger, Kurobara looked away

Kira frowned in distaste.

Now now Kurobara... We don't need anyone trying to commit suicide here.

Her eyes grew softer as she looked at him.

Kurobara and climbed down the roof and walked back to the apartment.yugo looked around at the destroyed block, buildings still on fire." what do you think made him do this?"asked yugo curiously

Kira shrugged a shoulder.

Oftentimes, when someone is in pain, they take it out on the people around them. Anger is the pnly way they know to show thier angst.

" he really made a big mess...you could be right" replied Yugo as he picked a piece of paper. it was a note of some sort

Kira went to read over his shoulder.

What does it say?

"just a vampire rune symbol...care to tell me what it means?"he asked giving it to her

Kira studied it for a moment before looking up.

It's a mix of two symbols, actually. This particular form means death and destruction.

Her voice was calm, but her red eyes were wide.

"I'm just taking a guess here...but when packs leave notes like this, its usually a sign of war...do you think one of the vampire clans might be going to war with another?" Yugo asked. he has seen the destruction that a clan war can bring."its weird how your race loves this city so much"

Kira shrugged one shoulder.

Covens will often go to war over a power struggle. This city is a very desirable one to have control over, sonce it is so large and rich with human blood. They could feed quite often and not even leave a mark on the population.

Her own race disgusted her quite often, how they thought of humans as nothing more than vessels for their food.

"No doubt this was probably aimed at..." Yugo then thought."Kira lets go" Yugo then jumped off the roof, running down the street and outv of the destroyed ruins" why didnt I think of this sooner" thought Yugo

Kira nodded and followed him.

We can't let these covens get away with this. They will murder half the city merely for feeding purposes, Yugo.

"My thoughts exactly, I'll call my squad and could you look for Ichi Otoga, this is his scent if it helps" he then handed her a vial of blood

Ichi was at his father's Dojo" My son...you have came a long way...but your still not ready to become a master...I'm sorry" Zoshi looked down, Ichi was furious."thats it?!...Ive almost gotten myself killed for the lat 5 months, and you still dont accept me as a master?!..Bullshit!" shouted Ichi." I mean it son...dont ever use those kind of words here again..now dismissed. Ichi cursed under his breath as he walked out." Did master Zo shout again?" asked Himay."no no himay...for once it was me." sighed Ichi

Kira resisted the urge to down the vial like a shot. She took a deep whif of the scent and her pupils dilated.

I am going to track him... Find out what he knows... Follow me.

She was off like a bullet out of a gun, headed toward to northeast. She was at the dojo within minutes. She burst through the double doors and yelled,

Ichi Otoga!

Ichi spilled his beer"what the?...what is it?"he asked in a shock
