Who: Agatsuma Soubi, Aoyagi Ritsuka
When: Feb. 28; ~4:15pm (according to the cellphone getting no bars)
Where: Dilapidated Playground... area.
What: Nothing bad. Soubi and Ritsuka find each other and get to figuring out what the hell is going on.


The thread that connected him to Ritsuka was thin (piano wire?) and loose (silk?) but shone brightly to his senses despite the fact that they were not, indeed, connected. Not as they should be. But he could hear Ritsuka and he could find him when his fighter called.

The trek took longer than he cared for. Broken pavement and crumbling walls of wood and stone and concrete made the walk more difficult than it should have been. He didn't dare run just yet. Ritsuka was not in immediate danger and if this was a training session, it was likely he would not be put in danger until they were together. So Soubi took off in the direction he was pulled at a steady pace that allowed him to maneuver around and occasionally over the decaying remains of a small city that stood in his way.

It wasn't terribly long, perhaps twenty minutes at most, before he got within sight of Ritsuka. Waving his hand, ears perking and tail swishing in uncontrolled excitement at actually seeing the other boy alive and well, he attempted to get his fighter's attention without making much sound as he approached. Just in case.

Soubi shook his head, "I don't know if we are or not, Ritsuka. I think we should assume its a test until we get more evidence otherwise. The Seven Moons have done strange things before. As for where we are... I don't know. But I don't think it's japan. What buildings I have seen look more like those found in American movies. They're too spread out."

He finished the sketch of what little he'd already explored and looked around at the ground, noticing a strange streak of blood. Exactly like the one he had seen from where he had first appeared. It led off in the same general direction as well. Soubi pointed at it, "The others that responded may be hiding this way. I saw another blood track like that earlier. If they are killing things to eat, then its likely those were created by the dead animals being dragged off."

Soubi adjusted his glasses and tucked his sketch pad under one arm reaching out for Ritsuka's hand with the other, "We can follow this for now and if we encounter any hostilities I will protect you. It's easier to fight with a spell battle against those who don't know what they are or how to use them. Unless you have another idea?"

He wasn't asking rehtorically, Soubi would defer to Ritsuka's plan of action if he decided to present one. His ears remained up and his tail hung behind him as he waited politely for an answer.

Ritsuka's eyes followed the blood trail with an uncomfortable look, and he glanced down at the device they'd arrived with. "...I could just as easily be human blood," he pointed out, "This place seems dangerous, I'm not sure we should follow the blood trail. Even if it is animals...some of the people I spoke with didn't seem very friendly. I don't think they'd want us there."

He pushed a few buttons, hesitating before adding, "One of them told me Loveless lived at 202. I'm not sure what that means or if we can trust them but...it seems safer some how then following streaks of blood...I think," he offered.

Soubi nodded, "So where is 202?"

Ritsuka's ears drooped slightly, "I'm not...sure. That's the problem. She said it was where the others were...and our name was on the door. But that's all I know. And it might not be safe either. Maybe we should just do what you said, I'm not...sure."

This was all very confusing. It was hard to give orders in such a foreign situation, especially one where he felt Soubi knew so much more than him.
