Ask to Join Night of the Furies RP

[DevVoid]

Siegfried ran across the roofs until he found a temple-like building up on a hill. He parkoured his way to the entrance, careful not to be seen. He didnt want to use the staircase leading to the entrance as this would make him vulnerable to ranged attacks. As soon as he entered the building, a few grunts from his three targets, presumeably some Samurai Rookies, stood in his way with their katanas readied. Siegfried clutched his head, then something awoke in him. His eyes flickered in colour, and a red glow grew in them. As quick as the wind, he took out two Kunais and went at the Samurais. He leaped up to avoid a vertical slash, then kicked the rookies' sword down and stood on it. He jabbed the kunai into his throat, slicing it open. Then, he threw that kunai to another samurai, into their face, inbetween their eyes, above their nose. It got lodged in their brain and while the samurai took a few seconds to fall, he died on the spot. The third and fourth ones tried to charge at him, only to be countered with a smoke bomb. The samurais were confused and looked around within the dense mist of smoke. There, all around them, they could see a pair of evil red eyes light up, just before they were killed, their throats slit open, a mark resembling a claw where the blood flows through. Siegfried dashed out of the smoke, having gotten no blood on him. Silently he jumped against the walls, avoiding the stairs to avoid making any noise. He leaped upwards from the last jump and onto the ceiling of the second floor, latching on by jabbing two kunais into the ceiling. From there on, he crawled like a spider to his three unsuspecting targets. He tossed another smoke bomb, aiming down in the middle of the three men. Then, he jumped down into the cloud of smoke. First, he disarmed one of the men by slicing at his wrists, then using his own blade to decapitate him, as he wasn't carrying a particularly heavy sword, and Siegfried had an idea to use Katanas since those are the standard weaponry of Ninjas. Then he tossed his throwing stars into the eyes of the second, then into his throat, shushing him up. Pulling the stars out of the man's throat, Siegfried quickly finished off the third by stabbing him in the gut with the katana he stole from the first. He kicked the third to the ground and tossed a last kunai inbetween the man's eyes, into his brain. " Scum you are, all of you.. " He uttered, spitting on them. Then he left as quickly as he came, the corpses ransacked of valuables and his traditional calling card left behind.

Kino only smile vaguely at Shadow, seeing no reason to answer, but he did anyways. Y'know, for safe measures. "Of course! Why would a little apprentice like me wonder around the night when there are far more dangerous enemies out there? I'd be dead in a second!" He chirped, "If I'm dead, who will take care of my grandma? She'll be so lonely without her grandson for company." He laughed, melodramatically placing a hand over his chest, as if he too, was hurting from merely the thought of it. "I'm all seriousness though, I don't plan to die early," he said, "not until I graduate that is, then I'll have to die one way or another." He added, laughing at the mention of his own possible death. "Hey look! There's the bakery!"

Koi made a whiny sound and nuzzled Honey on the cheek. "I'll visit another time, if my master lets me." He offered, "I'm sure he will though, so don't worry!"

 

[EeveeBlueSisters]

Shadow chuckled as he heard Kino laugh at his own death but as for him he can't die recklessly as he had his mom and sister to care for. He followed Kino seeing him run to the bakery to get Koi who was with Honey.

Honey smiled sweetly. "Ok but before you go try this apple pie!" She said seeing Maskerin take it out of the oven setting it down to cook off. She cut a piece for Koi and herself before placing it in front of them both. "Maskerin's pie is delicious Koi so hurry up and try it hehe" she said before using her Powder Snow to cool her and Koi's pie before she took a bite and smiled die to how good it was.

@Willow Tree

 

[Willow Tree]

Koi didn't disagree with Honey's statement, the pie is delicious! "Wow!" He exclaimed, "This is great! Did I really help make this!?"

( @Willow Tree Probably good to add a few more sentences since, yknow. The rule against one liners. )
Siegfried, having leapt out of the window, climbed atop the large temple, as on the note it was written to meet here after the job was done. Then, a smoke cloud had appeared out of a sudden, and as soon as it faded again, three ninjas had appeared, one carrying a bag of coins. " You did well, Viper. Here's your payment. Even though you most likely gotten your change from the pockets of your victims. Regardless, return to your usual life until the next call to arms. " The largest ninja said, standing at 6'2ft, then tossing the closed bag to Siegfried. Then all three of the ninjas jumped off the ceiling, disappearing in a smoke cloud. Siegfried grabbed the bag and stuffed it away in his ninja outfit. Then, he made his way back down the temple and ran across the rooftops, leaping from roof to roof, planning to go to the bakery again to get himself a reward for his work. Landing at the roof of the bakery, he cast out Gold and got his suitcase. Then he switched back into his Jiangshi-like clothing and pulled off his hoodie, aswell as pulling down the mouth cover, making it look like a scarf again by letting it hang off the end from his collar behind him. Then he cast Gold back into his Duskball after the Sableye stuffed the suitcase back into his loot sack. Siegfried leaped off the building, swung himself from a lamp post and rolled off the ground, landing by the entrance. Casually, he dusted himself off and walked in. " Hope I'm not too late here. ...am I? " He questioned loudly, shouting through the building to make sure he wasnt alone.

 

[EeveeBlueSisters]

Honey smiled. "Yes you did Koi, all by yourself with my help" she said as she continued to eat her piece of the pie finishing it. "Hey Koi what to play a game" she asked.

She woke up in the middle of the night with Everest resting on the window sill holding a bag and the message. She sat up slowly as the Snowy owl flew to her landing on her arm. She took the note from under her stomach as she read it. It said good work on it and will receive another mission soon. She took the bag from Everest then wrote that she will be waiting before slipping it back under Everest as she flew off. She opened the bag before pouring it in her hand as Rubies, Sapphires, Emeralds, and Diamonds slipped out of the bag. She was actually a bit surprised that something like this was given to her so she guessed they wanted him dead for a very long time.

She slipped them back into the bag closing it tight as she got up before placing it in her jewelry box that she kept hidden as there were other bags like the one she has from her previous missions as she was saving as much as she is able. She hidden it under a hole in the floor before shutting it's small door as she covered it well. Before she went to bed something suddenly happened as her door was broken open. Blue quickly stood in front of her protectively using Shadow ball on the floor to warn them about not getting close. "Who are you!?" "We are here for you pureblood" he said as his gold eyes appeared visible in his eyes. She gave a stern look revealing her gold eyes as well. She felt herself being grabbed from behind as she grabbed Blue to prevent any harm to her until something was placed on her mouth. She felt drowsy until sleep took her as she felt herself being lifted up. Blue fell as well due to the smell as she slept in her arms.

The purebloods left as the wolf pin that Seigfried had given her and the flower that was secretly placed in in her hair fell to the ground. Two Luxury balls began to shake until they opened revealing a Spring form Sawsbuck and a Dusk Lycanroc. Wolfa and Meadow realized that JC had been taken by male purebloods as Meadow picked up her wolf hairpin and the flower. "Sawsbuck!" "Lycanroc!" They said as they leaped off to find Siegfried. Wolfa was able to track him easily due to her nose stopping at a building. She sniffed the ground before looking to Meadow as she saw her lay on the ground before turning to the entrance of the door as she walked in following Siegfrieds scent.

She felt a bit groggy before she opened her eyes as she felt only her ankles tied up. She looked around for Blue seeing her in a cage laying down. "Blue..." She called seeing her eyes open slowly before standing up in the cage looking to her. "Oh so your awake I see him?" said a voice as she looked up seeing the pureblood. Her eyes were active to protect herself. "My what a rare one you are hehe a perfect one indeed"he said grinning. "Keep your hands off me!" She said slamming him. "Why you!" He slammed her back as her cheek was red but hit the floor. "Behave yourself unless you really want me to "play" with you" he warned before leaving the room. "Umbre!(JC are you alright!?)" Blue asked her worried. "Don't worry Blue...I'm alright..." She said sitting up as she wished she could run but her legs were tied up.

"Eh, I don't know, my trainer should be here soon, maybe next time? I promise I'll stay longer next time." He vowed, looking apologetically at Honey as Kino came in, shouting out a greeting to Maskerin before walking over. "Koi! How are ya buddy? Had fun with Honey?" Kino chirped, walking over and kneeling down to their height. Koi barked an agreement, tails wagging as he licked his trainer's knees. "Alright, we gotta go, we're going to be scouting today, the samurai must've ran out of people to send out if they had to resign to an apprentice like me." He laughed, then leaned down and whispered into Koi's ears. "New mission tonight, make it quick." He said in a hushed tone. Koi tensed immediately and turned towards Honey. Giving her one last lick on the cheek, he reminded her of his promise of visiting again and walked off with his trainer. "Big Brother! I got Koi, we should go patrol the city now." Kino called, walking to Shadow.

 

[EeveeBlueSisters]

Honey blushed shyly but kept her smile as she followed Koi for the moment leaping over him to stop him as she touched noses with him wagging her tails licking his cheek back afterwards before she leaped back towards the bakery. "Be careful Koi....ok I'll be waiting for you to return" she said waving a paw goodbye as she felt Maskerin lift her up. "Farewell Kino and Shadow and be careful"
Maskerin said waving her hand in the air. "Come by again" she said. "Vulpix!" Honey said agreeing. "Also bring those beautiful Ninetales back with you Kino!" She added before going back into the shop as Maskerin was unaware that she was being watched which wasn't good since Mask her brother was away on a mission which took three days to complete.

Shadow chuckled. "Don't worry Maskerin we will!" He called out before looking back to Kino. "
I can escort you to your grandmother's house and we can separate from there, I have to get home to JC before it gets late...idk but I have a bad feeling all of a sudden so I should head home quickly" he answered.

@Willow Tree

 

[Willow Tree]

Koi too, also blushed shyly as he licked his chest fur in embarrassment, mumbling that he will come back as much as he could if she'd like. Kino laughed and picked the vulpix up. "Don't worry Big Sis, I sure will bring Kitsune and Kyuubi back once or twice if that's what you'll like." He promised, then turned to Shadow. "So...does that mean we have to scout the city separately?" He asked, faking a disappointed look. He honestly didn't mind all that much, that means he can go and kill the target as soon as possible and just get the job done. "Well, you can just go back if you'd like, I can walk back myself." He offered, "Your bad feeling are usually never wrong."

 

[DevVoid]

Siegfried looked to the boy who walked into the bakery. Strangely enough, he seemed to be accompanied by Shadow. Or maybe he was accompanying Shadow. Either way, he didnt know this person, but already had a bad feeling coming off of them. Like, a feeling that gives off familiar vibes. A vibe that only killers could know to recognize. But, Siegfried paid no mind to it. Instead, he waited until the pair left and saw a Sawsbuck and Lycanroc approach him. He didnt know these pokemon at all, so he cast out Ricky the Slowking and Blade the Weavile to guard him while he looked to Maskerin. " Talk about some customer service here. " He joked, adding a fake tone of sarcasm. " Now can I get some baked goods or am I gonna have to wait until the rise of dawn to get something? "

 

[EeveeBlueSisters]

Maskerin smiled gently chuckling. "Of course sir what would you like?" She asked. "Honey and I here along with Lapris in the kitchen there will serve you today" she said until she saw a familiar Sawsbuck and Lycanroc. "Meadow, Wolfa, what are you doing here? Shouldn't you be with JC?" She asked them. "Sawsbuck!" "Lycanroc!" They said as Wolfa barked at Siegfried trying to say that JC was in danger. Meadow placed JC's wolf pin and the flower he had placed in her hair on the table before gently pulling at his sleeve having a worried look in her eyes before pulling away.

Shadow looked to Kino gently patting his head. "Alright I know you can handle yourself so I'll head off first and besides this time I don't think my bad feeling could fail me but anyway see you around and be careful getting home" he said before separating from him as Sparkx followed just next to him. He eventually arrived home as he knew mother was at work but JC wasn't there waiting for him like she usually does. He went into her room and once he walked in there was no trace of her. "No...dang it!" He said letting out Talon his Braviary. "Talon search the skies, JC has been kidnapped!" He told him. "Brave!" He said flying off. "Come Sparkx!" "Jolteon!" She said.

Shadow leaped from roof to roof arriving at Maskerin's bakery. "Maskerin have you seen JC anywhere?" He asked her. "Um....no I haven't Shadow...why what happened!?" She asked. "I believe she has been kidnapped...dang so careless!" He said as he left the bakery Sparkx following close beside him. Meadow and Wolfa looked at each other before leaving the bakery as Meadow grabbed JC's wolf pin leaving the flower for Siegfried since he secretly placed in her hair.
"Kidnapped....I hope nothing bad happens to her..." Maskerin said as Honey had the same expression.

@Willow Tree @DevVoid

 

[DevVoid]

" ..alright well, this sounds like an emergency... but I really am hungry... urgh, I hate making decisions like thiiss.. " He complained, hissing out the last word. He thought a bit, then cast Blade and Ricky back into their Duskballs. Then, he turned to Maskerin and tossed her a small thumb-sized ruby from his pocket. " Here, I'll take some pie slieces, especially strawberry if you have any, and some pastries on the go. Something like eclairs and croissants. Maybe some donuts, if you have any extra fancy ones. If you got a large bag, It'd be appreciated if you put them in there. " He said, looking over to the pastries on display.

 

[EeveeBlueSisters]

Maskerin caught the Ruby in her hands seeing how beautiful it saw as she shook her head. "Yes I have all kinds of pastries that I made with my team so I'll get that right away sir. Sweetie would you mind grabbing all of those pastries and putting them in the box?" She asked the Sylveon. "Sylveon!" She said smiling as she used her ribbons to grab the pastries he requested as she placed them in the box as she placed the cover on it before putting a ribbon around the box to close it. Sweetie leaped up on the counter before sliding it to Siegfried. "Sylve?" She said handing the box to him before patting his shoulder.

Kino smiled, and left. The moon was high tonight, shining a bright blue upon the hard dusty land. He merely scoffed and kicked the dirt. His shoulder was hurting again, so he'll like to get back home as soon as possible. "Alright Koi, let's just go kill the guy, retrieve his body and just get this over with." He said lamely, walking along the road. He heard a distant clack along the roof and saw Shadow, who already left some times ago, running along it. Koi growled curiously, tilting his head as he observed the scene. Kino laughed, "Ha! Something must've happened to Big Sis JC," he chuckled, no looking at all worried about the wellbeing of his sensei and their sister. Certainly, anyone would've stood up for the boy, saying he probably just trust his sensei enough to know they won't be injured by this incident, but no, Kino literally just doesn't care about them, he won't sugar coat it. He may seem like he had a close relationship with Shadow and all, but that's just a fake facade he had to put up to not draw suspicions. He doesn't want to grow attach to any possible victims after all. Certainly though, perhaps he secretly cares for them, but that can never be proven. Right now, he only watch in amusement as Shadow desperately asked about JC's whereabouts, being the worried brother he is. Surely, this scene should be a tragedy that draws out the sympathy in people, yet, Kino laugh at Shadow's loss. "Let's go Koi, we'll make the death quick." He ordered. Koi barked in agreement and followed Kino as he tightened the sash that ties up his Kimono, taking out his weapon in the form of a flute. Flash forward, Kino and Koi is now at the guy's house, waiting patiently for the target to show up. When the guy does, he drops the basket he was holding and gasp. "Wh-who are you? Why are you standing in front of my house? Wait, can you be..." the man trailed off and he gazed at Kino in fear. "Yo-you must be the assassin that's been killing innocent pureblood and furies around here!" He exclaimed, "Pl-please, I've done nothing to you, please spare my life!" He begged, "I-I have at wife and two sons, I have a family! A family!" He cried. Kino scoffed and flung out his blade, which the man shriek too. "Is it money you want? Slave? What is it? I'll do anything!" The man offered. Kino showed no interest and fling his arm out, stabbing the man in the shoulder. He screamed and started to shout for the samurai to help him, to which Kino silenced by slicing his throat open. The man was dead in a second, but he was alive to hear Kino's least words to him. "I don't want money nor slaves," Kino told him, "I just want to go home and sleep." Was how he finished his sentence. When the man died, Kino heard a scream behind him and turned, facing a woman who gasped and stepped back, in her arm held a child, no more than 3, suckling his fingers. "Aw, what a cute baby!" Kino exclaimed, "Too bad, you shouldn't have came out the house miss, kiss this world goodbye." Kino told her coldly, showing no mercy as he cut her down, her scream didn't even reach his ears nor did it ade him feel guilty in the least. He killed the baby too, for the kid will not be living omg without anyone to take care of him. He then killed the man's other son, who was peeking through the doorway. The murder of the whole family was brutal and merciless, surely, people will protest to the samurai about this but Kino really just want to go home. He picked up the man's body, and dragged it back wearily home with him. He then thought with annoyance that he now need to wash up and go patrol, then pretend he only just found the whole family dead, it'll be weird if he patrol and didn't find this brutal scene laid out for the world to see.

" Ah yes, thank you. " Siegfried said, grabbing the box of pastries. He opened it and looked in it, grabbing himself an eclair. Then he closed the box again and lifted it up onto his shoulder. " Hmm, it seems theres just pastries in here. I assume the slices of pie and whatnot will be put in a seperate box? " Siegfried asked, casually eating the pastry he took out from the box. Yes, he was worried for JC, but comeon, after the battle he just had he has to atleast give himself some sort of break before jumping right into another.

 

[EeveeBlueSisters]

Maskerin came out with another box that had the pie inside before placing it on the counter. "Here you are sir, your pie" she said as Honey wasn't in the kitchen but outside looking up at the sky thinking about Koi and if he was safe or not. "Don't worry about JC, her pureblood demon form will be mostly active to protect herself and if anyone tried to grab her forcely her pureblood demon aura would activate and push them back far...Shadow and JC are mostly likely connected so he will find her quickly I am sure of it...of course they had to grab her when no one was looking...just enjoy the pastries and when your ready go after her" she replied giving a gentle smile.

[Willow Tree]

Kino arrived at his little shack not too long after, throwing the man's body on the ground and walked pass it coldly. "Grandma! I'm home!" He called, "I brought the guy you wanted, he's outside." He told her, walking towards his room, eagerly ripping the kimono off his body, throwing it aside in a bloody pile. His grandma walked out the shower room, a bucket in her hand. "About time too, I prepared the shower for you." She explained, "Go in and make it quick, you don't want to keep your sensei waiting on the report." She press. Kino huffed and walked pass her into the shower, "Sometimes, I wonder how come Kitsune and Kyuubi never miss out on a single detail about me and Shadow." He whined. He finished soon enough, begrudgingly applying his ointment, making a face as he did so. He left as soon as he finished, running around the city in a a quick turn, then proceeds to seek out Shadow. "Big Brother! Big Brother! Big Brother where are you?!" He called, walking along the road that Shadow was in charge of patrolling. Perhaps Shadow left home, perhaps he's still looking for JC, or maybe he's somewhere patrolling in a different place. Kino pouted, hands on his hips as he mumbled something under his breath. "What do you think happened to JC Koi?" Kino asked suddenly. Koi tilted his head and barked confusingly. Kino smirked, and mischievously chuckled. "I bet ten yen that she's going to be alright." He laughed. Koi growled and barked again. "C'mon! I'm just saying!" Kino giggled and walked on, calling for Shadow that he stubbornly searched for.

 

[DevVoid]

" Ah there it is, thank you very much, miss! " He said, munching on the last bit of the eclair. He wiped some crumbs off of himself and grabbed the other box. He held both on his shoulders, arms wrapped around them with his hands on the lids. " Alright, I'm gonna head off now, seeya! " He said, walking out of the bakery. Then, he crouched and leaped into the air, jumping off a wall and onto the lamp post. He landed on it with one foot, then used the other to jump up again and land on the roof. Briefly he ran to JC's home, delivered his boxed in his roon and hid them under his futon bed. Then, he got out Gold to get his suitcase again, got dressed into his Ninja Attire (he also grabbed himself one of the katanas that Gold looted earlier from the ronins), and casted Gold back, making sure he took the suitcase along with him. On his way back, he grabbed the lotus flower on the ground, and took it out of his pocket while he was in his room. He cast out Zorro, as Zorro, being a Zoroark, was a relative of the fox family. He presented him the Lotus and commanded him to track JC by scent. Then, he put the flower away again and leaped with Zorro outside, following him as he tracked down JC's scent back to her location.

 

[EeveeBlueSisters]

Wolfa had JC's scent instantly as she continued to run before stopping at a building looking up at it. Wolfa barked to Shadow to follow inside as he didn't hesitate to follow as Sparkx followed right behind him. He didn't want to lose anymore of his family especially his sister as she was his main priority. He ran up the stairs to get to the top to save his sister on time.

Her pureblood demon form was activate to protect herself as her hair was pure white and eyes gold but had a face of seriousness. She was hurt on her shoulder from fighting back to prevent the men from touching her in the wrong way. "Come on sweetheart look at me!"he said grabbing her face to look at him. "Your such a pervert..."she said biting his hand with her teeth hearing him yell feeling the force of his hand touch her face as she fell to the ground. "How dare you bite me!" He said stomping her side with his foot but the moment he kept doing that her demon pure activated blowing him back. She coughed out blood due to the impact pushing herself up slowly sitting on her side before feeling a hand on her throat pushing her down again forcely. "Your demon aura is protecting you" he said lifting her up in the air pressing her against the wall as her hands grabbed his wrists while the other one blocks the opening of her kimono.

Arriving at the scene, Siegfried could tell that it was the right spot since he saw Shadow enter the building from the front door. Siegfried shook his head, disregarding how careless that action was, and reached into his outfit, taking out a small bamboo flute that was hidden within a pocket. He pulled down his mouth cover, cleared his throat and begun playing it, playing a very specific tune. Soon after finishing the tune, just as he put the flute away, a smoke cloud appeared behind him, a gang of four ninjas appearing in it. He gave hand signals to the group, telling them to kill every male pureblood in there except for Shadow, describing to them what he looked like. One of them remembered a profile kept on him, as their clan does on every samurai just incase they decide to turn to the bad side. He briefly explained it to the other ninjas with hand signals, and all nodded to Siegfried, giving him an Ok hand sign to symbolize they are ready. And as such, Siegfried counted down from three to one with his left hand, and motioned for them to split up and enter through different angles to suprise the enemy. Siegfried himself climbed up a wall with another ninja using his kunais and climbed in through a window high up, an easy entrance because it was a window lacking both bars and a hinge to close it. He climbed down the wall and along the ceiling, joining up with the other ninjas. Quietly, silent as the night, they snuck around the building until they found the room they were locking foor. A smoke bomb was thrown into the middle of the pureblood males, and the group of five ninjas, Siegfried included, jumped into the smoke, fighting against the demons. Zorro remained on the ceiling, making the group of ninjas invisible to JC, Shadow and any other Samurai in the area, to not cause more panic.

 

[EeveeBlueSisters]

She saw the smoke come in as she covered her nose with her hand, pureblood demon form still active. She sensed Siegfried in the room as this smoke was probably his doing. She saw saw Shadow's shadow in the smoke with Sparkx fighting them off. She felt herself being lifted as an arm wrapped around her neck as the guys sword was at her neck. "Move one inch and she dies!" He called out in the smoke.

@DevVoid

 

[DevVoid]

As the group of the four ninjas left as swift as they came when the men were cut down, Siegfried remained standing in the smoke cloud, looking to the guy. He thought of attacking him, but then he saw a shadow fall onto the guy from above. It was Zorro, who boosted himself off the ceiling and pounched onto the guy. He had used Hone Claws plenty of times before the pounce, and proceeded to tear the man apart using Fury Swipes. During his attack, he also cut free JC from her bind, and pushed her to his trainer to make an escape. Siegfried grabbed JC by the shoulder and lifted her onto his back, leaping up to the window and escaping. Zorro had escaped aswell in the cover of the smoke cloud, lifting Blue into his arms and following his trainer. Then, the smoke finally cleared up, and the scene was visible again; the former hostile purebloods all dead, the strangers and JC gone, only a small black and white calling card left behind, with a shuriken pinning it to one of the bodies.

Having reached outside, Siegfried nodded to the other ninjas who promptly fled the scene to avoid any incoming samurais. Siegfried lowered JC to the ground, atop the roof tiles. He removed his hoodie and mouth cover, standing infront of JC with a bloodied katana in his hands. He sheathed it into the holster on his back and looked to her. " Now you know why I can't reveal my true job. Now.. are you hurt? "

 

[EeveeBlueSisters]

She looked up at Siegfried sitting on the side of her hip as she couldn't really speak at the moment due to her fear she is holding deep inside of her. She saw her brother Shadow appeared at that moment next to Siegfried speaking first. "You were afraid weren't you being in that situation alone with males like that because of your blood, come on I know that's why your not speaking...its ok to let out your emotions" he said gently bending down to her placing a hand on her head.

Once Shadow said those words to her tears started to fall and her trembling was visible. "Yes... Siegfried...I am hurt....on the shoulder...but I will heal...quickly so don't worry...and yes I was...I couldn't defend myself...or my another identity...will be revealed...I'm sorry..." She felt an embrace from Shadow as she grasped his sleeve crying softly. Blue had appeared at her side taking the place of Shadow's hugging. He stood up before looking to Siegfried. "I believe I should explain why JC hide that from you but not here I'm afraid since you have already revealed your true job, I'll explain hers for her. Let's just head back home and I will explain from there" he said seeing Talon land of the roof as the Braviary opened one wing to let JC on before seeing him take flight back home. Shadow used the rooftops to head back home.

Maskerin heard a yelling echo in the distance as she walked out of the bakery with Honey following her. She saw Kino just in the distance with Koi his Vulpix. Honey's eyes lit up as she leaped off towards Koi. "Koooooooi!" She said tackling the Kantoain Vulpix to the ground as they both rolled a bit until she was on top of him. "You came back!" She added wagging her tails. "Hey Kino, are you looking for Shadow?" She called out waving her hand to get his attention.

@DevVoid @Willow Tree

 

[Willow Tree]

Koi shrieked as he suddenly felt himself tackled to the ground. For a second, he thought someone had come to get revenge for the death of their past victims, but a familiar scent reached his nose and he relaxed into it. "Oh, it's just you Honey," he said, "you scared me haha." he chuckled, leaning upwards to lick her nose. Kino laughed and watched the two's affectionate exchange, mildly curious about what's going on between them but another figure joined them. "Ah! Big Sis! Yeah, I was looking for Big Broth- I mean, sensei." he corrected himself quickly. "Do you have an idea on where he is? I can't seem to find him anywhere!" he whined, "I have been searching for hours! I got important information to report, you know the peaceful little family living right down the street? Well, I was patrolling their part of the roads and guess what I found, the whole family murdered! Dead!" he announced, though in a hushed tone, "Can't you believe that? I know there's dangerous murderers nowadays but god! An entire family! Children and servants all gone!"

 

[EeveeBlueSisters]

Honey smiled getting off Koi. "Sorry I tackled you like that....I was...um...happy to see that you came back..." She smiled sweetly sitting down as she turned her head to see Maskerin run up to her. "Oh my gosh really...that's cruel...who would do something like that...it's just not right...but anyway do you like my kimono, I thought of maybe fitting into the Kyoto culture" she smiled sweetly. "Vul?" Honey barked looking up at her trainer. "Oh right here Honey for you" she said bending down to her placing a Sakura flower on her ear. "There you are" "Vulpix!" She said doing a flip before landing on the ground again. "Oh right hey Kino can I ask you something?" She said looking to him with a sweet smile.

@Willow Tree

 

[Willow Tree]

Kino's smile twitched and he laughed in his mind. Maskerin freaking out over a whole family death for 5 seconds then casually changed the subject off to clothes, it's more entertaining than anything else. "Oh! Such a lovely design! Too bad my grandma can't make such a beautiful piece of fabric, she's plainer and likes to stick to the old cultural design of her generation, meh, too bad for me." he laughed. At the mention of a question, Kino tilted his head, and with a smile, agreed. "Sure, what is it you want to ask me?"

" So I guess your just- " He wanted to ask. Yet, he couldnt, as Shadow instantly begun running back home. Siegfried sighed and facepalmed. " Well, looks like she truly does value her own life more... I mean, it'd do the same but.. really..? " He whispered under his breath, sitting down. He cast Zorro back into his Duskball and just sat there in silence. " Now those two know MY secret. And one of them is bound to spill it eventually. And when that happens, I'll be dead faster than JC will be when her own secret spills... Jeez, for a samurai he sure doesnt know the rivalry and hatred going on inbetween Ninjas and Samurais. I can't stay with them anymore. Its either moving out or killing them. Granted, the second option wouldnt be as tough, well asides finishing off JC maybe, but still. I'd rather not do that.. " He said to himself, debating what to do. Then, he stood up and ran back to the Siblings' home, too. He set himself on a decision. He was gonna be gone, out of their house and their village by tomorrow morning and move to another village. Or maybe even to a whole other island. He can't risk staying any longer or every samurai will be onto him. Not only that, but he will be shunned by his ninja clan for blowing their cover and failing to keep a low profile. And since he didn't want to resort to bloodshed, fleeing was the only way, even if it was the coward's way out. He took shortcuts to get to their home faster than Shadow, and jumped into his room through the window. Then, he cast out Gold the Sableye. He stuffed the two boxes of food into the Sableye's large lootbag and took out a note along with a pen. He wrote a simple note that thanks to their knowledge of him being a ninja that he has two options. Either kill them or flee to another village, maybe even to another island. And that he choose the latter. He also added a slight sour note of how they completely disregarded his life and only looked out for JC, as if he was just some object, explaining why spilling his secrets would be far more dangerous than JC's, since he was both a thief and a ninja, a great combination to be put into public humility and torture, to be shamed from potentially the whole village and its neighbours, to be shunned from his clan and left to live by himself. Any fate would be better off than that, especially Death. He added a last note calling out JC for acting selfish and even going as far as to pretend that a simple death was worse than eternal torture and humiliation, a bit of his evil side mixed into this last note. Then, he left this note on his futon bed, cast Gold back into his duskball and fled the scene again, escaping the house through the same window and just remained running. Regardless of where he ran, he just needed to get out of here and never see them again.

The siblings went home but what Shadow had realized was that Siegfried wasn't following them. He left his sister in her room to change as he didn't understand why he disappeared like that. Sparkx was confused as well as she looked around no seeing any sign of Siegfried. Shadow sighed as he just went into his room as Sparkx followed closing the door.

She was in her room seeing a note under her futon which was from Siegfried. She read it throughly before standing up changing into a new kimono once her shoulder was wrapped. She ran out of the room alone as Blue followed after her. "-How could I be so stupid!? I didn't know he felt that way...like he was being used! I wasn't selfish and I didn't know! I had my reasons for hiding my true job from others...he didn't tell me he was feeling that way! I have to at least explain!-" she thought running through the roads of Kyoto. "Seigfried! Siegfried! Please! You should have told me you were feeling that way! I would have understood honestly! Ah!" She suddenly tripped on her sandles falling on the ground but had pushed herself up sitting on the side of her hips. "Please just...let me explain...I had my reasons for hiding my true job from you....and you leave....without saying goodbye to me...in person...I'm sorry really...I didn't mean to hurt you in that type of way...." She whispered looking down on the ground as her bang hung off her right blind eye as she cried softly tears falling off her eyes.

Maskerin smiled. "There is a festival coming up so..um I was wondering if you and Koi want to join me and Honey, they have a part for Pokemon as well to play in if your not busy of course" she said. "I understand if can't" she added as Honey barked in excitement looking to Koi. "I will be fun Koi, I think you might like it!" Honey said giving a sweet smile.

@DevVoid @Willow Tree

 

[Willow Tree]

"Wow! A festival!" Kino exclaimed, eyes sparkling at the thought of the foods laid out on the streets along with the gorgeous lanterns lighting the way. He was the most excited for the games above all else, like the ones he played with grandma a few years back. "Sure! I'd love to come! Koi will agree, he will be keen on going with Honey!" he laughed, patting Koi, who was blushing heavily. "When is it? I've got to make ways in my schedule." he explained, "Or else my grandma won't let me go haha." he giggled.

 

[DevVoid]

Siegfried came to a stop when he heard someone shout his name. He looked back, down onto the ground from the roof he was on. He looked to JC, who ran through the streets looking for him. He scoffed and jumped down, landing on a lamp post, looking to her. His mouth cover and hood was pulled back up, as the only thing visible on him were his eyes. " And I had reason to hide my identity. Apparently, you're not aware of the active RIVALRY between Samurais and Ninjas. Apparently, your brother isnt either. I was suprised when he even let me live back then. But I can't let my clan members know that a samurai knows of my true identity. I cannot trust your brother with my secret, and I'm starting to doubt I can trust you with it either. I've revealed secrets to you that couldve gotten me locked up, killed or worse. But you dont seem to care. You just like collecting my secrets so you got some dirt on me incase I start acting bad, dont you? If you didnt, you'd know to atleast tell me about your deadly secrets too as I had told you about mine. Unless you admit right here and now that you truly did want to use me like a puppet and wanted me to admit my secrets as a failsafe if I start acting up. You obviously prefer to life over death. I get it. But you were acting selfish when you said it in your own words that YOUR secret being revealed was worse than mine being revealed, despite you knowing at that point in time that me being a thief meant to be executed, just as it means for a geisha to be a samurai. Because death is apparently worse than lifelong torture and humiliation from everyone you know. I don't expect you to understand. I get it. Your life is more important than mine. I do truly get it. I put my life before yours, too. So don't think I'll be taking any spills of my secret to the public lightly. If you want me back, you're gonna have to guarantee something. Either you and your brother use your pokemon to wipe your memories about my true identity, or your brother needs to be silenced. Because simply, I prefer my life over his, the way you prefer your life over mine. Simple as that. If you don't agree to these terms, turn back. Eventually, I will have to come back and wipe your memories with Ricky anyway, so either way you're gonna forget about my secrets. " He said, a red glow slowly appearing in his eyes. His pureblood form was showing too, but oddly enough, instead of having white/gold colours, it was more of a black/red colour, as his hair turned ash-black with a few white strains, crimson coloured twisted horns grew out of his head and the red glow in his eyes brightened. It was like his evil side was affecting his appearance, almost as if it was corrupting his pureblood form.

 

[EeveeBlueSisters]

She stood up slowly wiping her tears before speaking firmly. "Don't worry about the memories, I can ask Blue to wipe the parts of that memory that I shouldn't have seen about your true identify Siegfried, I understand that you wanted to keep that a secret from anyone. I understand that Samurai's and ninjas don't get along but I am not a samurai just a ninja with a samurai sword since I wear different clothing then them. However in return, you must keep my identify a secret but if you can't I will have to erase that part of your memory when you did see my true identity. The law in Kyoto is different for a female then it is of a male wielding a sword. if someone found out I was wielding a sword, I am as good as dead. I will either be hunted down and killed or get arrested and sentenced to death that is why I kept something like that from you because I was afraid if you had found out, you would tell the police about it and have me arrested and sentenced to death or possibly kill me on the spot without a second thought" she said pureblood demon form active as she had a stern look on her face as her demon aura surrounded her not afraid of the form he was showing.

"My identity is very limited to other eyes which is why only Shadow knows about my true job. Listen, I apologize if you felt like you were being used in any sort of way really but I am not that type of person to do something as stupid as that. If you would have told me that you felt like you were being used in anyway then I would have understood and tell you that you could take some breaks off. I'm a very reasonable person Siegfried, I treat them the way they want to he treated and never judge them no matter the appearance or species. I rather you be comfortable then uncomfortable and don't worry about Shadow I'll handle his memory. I won't blame you for hating me because of what I said or did but if you still want to leave after what I explained then I won't stop you and I will leave you be. The choice is yours Siegfried." She finished closing her eyes as she fanned herself.

Maskerin chuckled. "Well it's 5 days away Kino so that should give you at least a bit of time to look through your schedule but I will close my bakery early before the festival starts but I think I will be fun" she said. Honey smiled sweetly before looking to Koi. "Your going to enjoy the festival Koi, they have an area just for Pokemon to explore before me and Maskerin have to perform on the stage there" she answered gently patting his head with her paw.

(Oh oh, btw, just a heads up @LunarSilvally I'll be adding Milo soon into this rp, I feel like my posts are getting too short and I'm losing motivation on what to write like really fast. I hope getting another character could lengthen it at least a little bit. XP)

"Five days away? Got it, I'll tell grandma." He gave her a childish thumbs up, a little *bling* sound effect flashing comically as he chuckled and twirled happily. "I'm so excited! It's been years since I've been to a festival, not after I've become a samurai that is." He shrilled, clapping his hands together and he swung Koi up into the air. "Are you excited Koi? Are you? Are you?" He laughed, nuzzling Koi affectionately on the cheek. Koi barked and licked Kino, pawing at him to show his own excitement on this matter. Festivals don't usually give a place for pokemons you see. Kino placed Koi back down again and looked to Maskerin again, "But I can't stay long though, like always." He told her, "I might have to leave earlier than expected."

 

[DevVoid]

" So, you decide to allow me to tell you my secret that could just as quickly get me killed, but you decide not to care if I do it because.. what? Because it's not your life that's endangered? And why would I snitch a fellow ninja to the police? You know the police is trying to hunt me down for being a thief in the first place. That thought process is just utterly stupid, you have to admit. Even if I did for some reason reveal it, you couldve told them my identity, which would have gotten me killed. So, you rather preferred to get only me killed by knowing my secret but not to make it equal and atleast tell me yours, because.. why? You like to have the upper hand when it comes to interacting with others? You know I feared just aswell that YOU or your brother couldve just as easily revealed my secret to the police aswell. " He said, jumping down from the lamp post.

 

[EeveeBlueSisters]

She took a breath to calm down. "I would never do such a thing as that Siegfried, so don't assume I would just snitch on you!" She said stern. "Secrets are supposed to be kept and that's how it should be. That would be very low even for me and my brother is no different. He keeps secrets well hidden just like I can. Also, no I only try my best to make friends with others but only they mistakenly see my true identity, they end up trying to kill me because it's against the Kyoto law which is why I am careful about revealing my true identity. I don't take advantage of people for my own game or get the upper hand, I'm not that type of person, never was. What could I achieve for doing that? Nothing that's why. I did tell you why I kept a secret like that from you, it was because if I had revealed it to anybody I would have been hunted down and killed or even arrested and killed on death sentence.

You have saved me multiple times from men and those pureblood so why would I do such a cruel thing as that to you in return when you have done so much to keep me safe even if you didn't have to. Also, you didn't tell me anything about your life being in danger so how was I supposed to know that you had a secret as well without tell me. "I'm not a Naieve girl Seigfried I would have not asked and further if you had a secret you couldn't tell me because I would have understood. I know how to keep my brother's mouth shut but if you want that part of me seeing your identity erased then I have no problem with Blue doing it right now to keep you at ease even to Shadow. I don't expect you to forgive me that easily and you may just even hate me right now but I am use to the hate since people always see to blame me for something I did by mistake or think I did it...if that's how you see me...someone to blame or hate because of a simple mistake l completely understand..." She said as Blue looked up at her eyes filled with worry but remained still as she didn't like the idea of erasing a part of JC's memories since it will erase all of her memories about Seigfried, even meeting him.

Maskerin smiled gently. "Hey it's no problem, as long as you and Koi have fun then that is all that matters ok Kino hehe" she said as Honey wagged her tails happy that Koi was coming with her and Maskerin.

(That's great @Willow Tree just put his char sheet and then you are all set ^-^)

@DevVoid @Willow Tree

 

[Willow Tree]

"Woo-hoo! Koi! Let's go find Shadow then! Gotta tell him the good news before he fill me up with work on that day!" He chirped, "Gotta go fast! Bye Big Sis! See you then!" He cheered, waving her a goodbye as he went on his escalade to find Shadow. "He might be home already, dammit."

 

[DevVoid]

" Oh comeon, as if you didn't know that a notorius thief like me would get the death sentence when his identity was revealed. I mean, where do you think I got all my gems and gold from? I steal more than just hairpins and flowers, yknow. " He shrugged, as his pureblood form hid itself again and the red glow from his eyes faded. " But really, I'll trust you to keep my secret, well... secret. But you have to wipe your brother's memory of me. Can't have a samurai run around knowing my true identity as a ninja now can I? "

 

[EeveeBlueSisters]

Maskerin saw Kino leave so quickly to tell Shadow as she chuckled. "Reminds me of a very close friend who I don't know where he is, unfortunately" she said as Honey looked up at Maskerin confused. "Vul?" she said moving her head slightly to the side. "Oh you haven't met him yet Honey so you won't exactly know him and either does Sweetie so if he ever shows up again, I'll introduce you and Sweetie to him" she said picking her up. "He's nice trust me" she added.
(Yes she is referring to Milo @Willow Tree)

She sighed softly but gave a gentle smile. "My brother is not the type of guy to spread rumors like that but if it will put you at ease then I will wipe that part of his memory out but...that pin you got me it seemed to have...oh Meadow you have it" she said noticing Meadow having the wolf hairpin in her mouth reaching her head out to give it to her. "Thanks, Meadow, I think this was the only thing with my scent on it to find me so I thank this pin for helping you and Shadow find me," she said reaching over her head to place the wolf hairpin back in her hair until just the end of it dangled a bit. "Well, you did tell me that you "took" it so yes I already knew you were a thief but I didn't say anything because you have your reasons. Anyway, as long as you keep my secret hidden then in return, I'll keep yours but once I am doing my "secret" job don't follow me, I must do it alone because I am able to fight and defend myself with that job as I am pretty sure you saw that already and I only do it at night time understand" she said looking to him as Blue was relieved that she didn't have to erase that part of JC's memories or that would have caused to wipe out JC's memories of her completely

@DevVoid @Willow Tree

 

[Willow Tree]

Kino squealed and leap up onto a roof, heels clacking loudly against the hard tiles, scattering them as he ran along it. Giving a little whoop, he lept back down to the ground where Koi was still running along. The vulpix barked again at him and they continued. "Let's go wait for Big Brother at his house then! I think it's somewhere over....here? I think I saw his mother walk into this house once before." He commented, stopping at a house that was actually pretty close to Shadow's, though it wasn't. The little boy was three house away, but then again, Kyoto houses nearly all looks the same.

(Aw, Maskerin talks about Milo like she knows him so well! And she probably does. Since Honey never had met Milo before and he kind of missed out on a few days, we'll just assume he left Kyoto for a few years on a little trip and now he's back after whatever year you want to pretend he left for.)

It was sunset when Milo finally arrived back onto fresh Kyoto land. He took a deep breath of the familiar air, spacey and clean with a tinge of sweet, flushed with the scent of sakura trees. He walked along the road he believe he must've waked before and touched gentle sceneries painted on the walls by artisans and mischievous children. He had miss this place, even if he had just left for a few years, he's sure many changes had already taken place here. A quiet cling of chains alerted him and he looked up to Kiki, his Klefki. "Ah yes, Kiki, you remember where our house is yes?" He says. Kiki shrilled his side of agreement, and flew down ahead to scout the road. Milo stepped down light stairs, old and worn out over the past years it had been use. Milo could've sworn it had looked as good as new when he was just a child. Two days had passed now, and he had just finished unpacking his many amount of things the moment he arrived home. He would've like to visit everyone to tell them he was back, but who was he kidding, he don't know that many people. Well, except one girl that is. Right now, the moon had risen, but he didn't care all that much. If his assumption is correct and she's still like the little girl he had known before he left, she'll still be at the makeshift bakery she was so proud of. The bakery must've been up and running by now, he remembered how it used to be only a work in progress! God, how things moves. And now, in the present, he was once again walking down the road, though it's a different one this time. He hope he's going down the right one, his memories fail him at times. Luckily for him though, the pathway had gaped away and Milo caught sight of the bakery, though he wasn't sure if it's the one but it's the only restaurant with the scent of bread coming out of it. And he was more sure, when his eyes caught on the figure he was looking for to begin it all. Maskerin! She had changed a lot, he noted. Her hair was longer, body more slender, lips more flush, expression just as cheerful, and he believes she had grown taller too, if his eyes aren't deceiving him. She was talking to another boy, younger than her by far, a little training katana by his side. Two vulpix aid them, both minding their own business and playing at one another. The boy soon left, calling out a goodbye to Maskerin before disappearing. Milo then took that chance to walk up behind Maskerin as she started saying something to the white vulpix, which he assume is hers. He didn't catch what she was saying to it, but he didn't really need to know; he's sure it's nothing bad, she never talks bad about anyone. "Hello there~" he cooed into her ear, gently hugging her from behind, much like how she always does before, it had always scared him whenever she does that since it always catches him off guard when he least expected it, and he's sure it'll still jump him at times. "Miss me much dear?" He smiled at her. He had grown used to calling her dear, sweetie, darling, or whatever nicknames they had that he could think of. Seems like he hadn't grown out of that yet. "You remember me right?" He asked, though he already knew the answer. Maskerin isn't stupid, surely she wouldn't forget one of her best friends, unless she replaced him but he doubted so.

 

[EeveeBlueSisters]

(btw Maskerin does have a major crush on Milo but is too shy to admit it @Willow Tree xD)

She felt an embrace from behind and an familiar voice came to her ear. She turned her head to look and it was none other then Milo, one of her best friends and major crush she will not admit to. She got out of his embrace to actually turn around and looked at him. She placed Honey down seeing how well Milo had grown, hair was a bit longer and was taller as well and still remembered those emerald green eyes as she probably could guess that he was maybe 21 now. "Omg Milo, of course I remember you! How could I forget my best friend I knew for so long!" She said embracing him. "I missed you so much, I thought I never see you again" she quickly let him go remembering what he told her about embracing him without telling him. "Oh...sorry Milo, my you have grown....last time I saw your appearance you were about my height but now your taller then me...your a young man now" she said holding her wrist with her hand that was down. "Greetings Kiki, it's been a long while since I have seen you and I am sure Key will be happy to see you as well" she said to the Klefki.

@Willow Tree

 

[Willow Tree]

(She so adorable when shy XD)

Milo smiled, chuckling softly as Maskerin embraced him all of a sudden, quickly letting go just a moment after. Honestly, he didn't realize that he had change all that much until she mentioned it, and was reminded again of how time goes by just so fast. "Am I? Hm, now that you mention it, I am actually taller than you now, at least, a little bit." He knelt down a bit to look her in the face, a smirk playing on his lip as he giggled. "I missed you so much, everything I see there reminds me of when we were little. Remember how the adults always threaten us with the fact that orge come take bad children if they don't behave? We always fall for stories like that!" He laughed, rubbing his head, "We were always the naive ones..." he said. Kiki chirped next to him, coming forward a bit to nuzzle Maskerin gently on the cheek, squealing at her for a few second, surely talking about how he's also excited to meet Key again. Milo smiled, and petted Maskerin on the head sweetly. "I got you some things from China by the way," he piped up, "Even a few from Korea. Man! If only you came with me, then that'll be a sight to see! You won't believe me when I say this but China actually building up a big defensive wall, to fend off enemies or something, I didn't look to deep into it, but you should've seen it! It was so long! Longest I've ever seen!" He exclaimed, flailing his arm wide around him, as if to symbolize just how long he was talking about. "And their foods are delicious, cute too!" He said, reaching into the bag he had brought along with him and took out two bento boxes. He handed both to Maskerin, "Here," he urged, "ones from Korea and the other is from China, guess which one is which." He teased.
