~//[TRC RP] Cat's Eye

[Sakaki]

Fai stood in the entrance to the room, leaning against the doorway.
He wore a small smile, but his eyes were narrowed and suspicious, knowing that no good could come of this man being here......this sorcerer....so much like another he remembered.
Someone who only loved to hurt......who thrived on it......
And what could he want with Syaoran....now..

Fai watched carefully, silently, feeling an anger well up inside of him for a man he didn't even know, but reminded him so much of another......

[Okamirei]

Syaoran stepped back. "Seishirou-san...what are you doing here?"

He's the same... but, how can this be?

He stared at Seishirou. "You're the one...who sent the kijii last night?"

[Hori]

Hori Looked up at Seishirou... waiting for his reply

[Kitsune-chan]

Seishirou cast a mysterious smile. "Yes, that was me... "

He looked around the cafe; then returned his gaze at the others. "What have I come here for?"

Kijiis appeared beside him, grinning evily.
"I've come....to destroy  the kijii hunters...after all, that is my job."

He chuckled, ignoring Hori's surprised glance.

[Sakaki]

Before the dark sorcerer had even began to laugh, eight wicked sharp darts flew from Fai's trained hands, whirling just inches past the others, and striking their targets flawlessly.

But the wizard's expression turned dark, eyes clouding with worry, as the kiji only absorbed the small daggers and turned to face them once again, and Seishirou met his eyes and grinned, so very much like the other he remembered.........

[Hori]

" Sei-chan !" Hori yelled - stepping in front of him after the daggers ... " What do you think You're playing at !"

Hori's eyes showed anger and sadness along with a painful twang of betrayal and misunderstanding ....

" Dont kid me Seishirou !"

[Pikari]

Kurogane moved on Fai's cue. As soon as his darts had struck their targets, the ninja had drawn his sword and was slicing at the nearest kiji. He cut through one, then another, but each time another kiji stepped in to take its place, keeping the distance between him and Seishirou. He slashed at another kiji with frustration. If that kid would just get out of his way, he might have a better aim at the dark sorcerer...

[Sakaki]

As Kurogane sliced at the kiji in frustration, Fai saw something glimmer in the air around the demons......spots of light that flashed and twirled appeared and suddenly shot out from the kiji..........straight back at Fai.......
The darts................

Fai had only a split second to jump out of the way as the razor edged darts flew back at him......
Six flew past.....missing their mark........the seventh lightly scraping his cheek as it flew by..............and he gasped as the eighth dart hit...... shooting painfully through the center of his slender hand, pinning it to the wall..........

Without taking his eyes off Seishirou, Fai reached out, pulled hard on the dart......freeing his injured hand, and wrapped his shirt around it, as the blood began to pour from the wound.

[Okamirei]

Syaoran jumped forward, dodging and kicking the Kijiis out of the way. Sakura was safe in her room, but the rest were in grave danger.
He winced momentarily; gripping tightly to a chair and clutching his chest. Hearing Fai's gasp, he whipped his head around, seeing a dart penetrate through his hand. "Fai-san!"
A kijii lashed to his right, catching him off guard. Blood trickled down his face as he saw stars before him.
Dazed, he looked back at Seishirou; his eyes filled with confusion and anger.

[Pikari]

Kurogane raised his sword for another stroke, just when he heard Syaoran's voice call out behind him. Fai-san!

His head snapped toward the back of the room, an unexplainable feeling of dread suddenly punching his chest. But instead of lying limp on the floor like he'd almost expected, he saw the blonde wizard tending to an injured hand. Before he had time to ponder why this caused him such an usually great relief, Kurogane's breath was knocked from him struck him hard in the back, sending him rolling to the floor. He roared out in pain as huge claws dug red streaks into his arm and back. Ignoring the pain, he was on his feet again, red eyes glaring fire at Seishirou. "If your job is to kill us... I wanna know who the hell sent you!!"

[Koolsnowball]

Ari, having only gotten about an hour of sleep, was up rather early that morning, and spent most of that time preparing herself for her plan to repay Little Doggie and Big Kitty. She had even thought about what she was going to say beforehand and commited it to memory, so she'd be at least mildly coherent when she talked to them.
And it was because of her running lines through her head that she wasn't aware of the current... 'Situation' of the group until she entered the room.

"Okay... Bi-- HOLY HELEN OF TROY!" Ari exclaimed upon seeing the Kiji fight taking place.

Her hand went to her back to get her sword, or at least, that's what one would presume, as she ended up grabbing nothing but air. It took a few moments to click that she was not in fact, wearing her sword or her vest with the wings, as she had taken them both off so she could sleep better/not damage them by sleeping on them.

Surely if she had known there would have been a Kiji attack, she would have remembered to put those both on, however, as this was not the case, Ari ended up half-stumbling as she stopped her entry into the room, groped empty air until she remembered her lack of sword, stuttered something along the lines of "Oh! Gimmie a moment...", and immediately turned tain and ran out of the room to get her stuff.

((In other news, I finally scanned this drawing of Ari I did. ^^ Badly sketched... To the max! *feels big* *... And incoherent. Man, soggy chocolate + grahm... Grae... Those crackers, in the s'mores + Midnight = not good idea. Usually.* ))

[Hori]

" Seishirou ! " She yelled " Stop this now !" Her eyes pleaded him...

She hearded the cutting of flesh and turned to see Fai " Fai-san !" ... And she knew...

She gritted her teeth and raised her palm - blasting away one of the Kijis ... and then looked back up to him...

"  If thats the way you want to play ... Two can play at that game "

[Kitsune-chan]

If your job is to kill us... I wanna know who the hell sent you!!

Seishirou smiled. "He wishes to remain anonymous."
He cast an amused look at Fai, then looked into Syaoran's wide brown eyes. "you've gotten much stronger.."

A small sad expression formed on his face as he listened to Hori's shocked angry words. "Hori.."

There's nothing I can do...it's my job.

He watched his kijiis...grinning.

[Sakaki]

Fai watched helplessly, as the kiji attacked Kurogane, tearing long, angry looking tracks through his shirt and skin.
The wizard knew they were in trouble and desperately looked for some way........
but his hand was in agony, distracting him.....and all the blood.....
Blood...
Blood magic......

Fai knew much about blood magic.
Never using it himself, but seeing it used by another......

True, he couldn't use his magic, but perhaps his blood could still be of some use..........

With his good hand, the wizard pulled four darts from his pocket and let the blood from his wound drip onto the knife sharp tips..............then once again, threw them out at the kiji...........

He hit three, the fourth dart missing, as he wasn't as accurate with his left hand, and was still distracted by his pain. Upon hitting the kiji, they exploded in a flash of bright light, leaving the darts to fall to the ground below.

The wizard smiled and reached once again for his weapons........

[Hori]

Hori Started blasting Kiji every which way ... Mainly to protect Fai - but she saw he was retreiving some defence and offence ... She had to get Seishirou out of there and out onto the street - Maybe the Kiji would follow ....

She thrust herself at Seishirou- Knocking them both outside... Some Kiji Followed... She swore loudly and procceeded to fire up her blasts again ... She looked down at Seishirou ...

" Stop this or I'll Kill you " She said .. her eyes brimming with tears ...

[Okamirei]

Syaoran leapt away from the kijiis; still off-balance from the blow in the head. He watched wide-eyed as the kijii tore his claws into the ninja. "Kurogane-san!"
Scrambling to help, a large claw brought him down; pinning him to the floor. "urgh.." The boy clenched his teeth in pain as the claws dug deeply into his chest. Turning his head towards Seishirou and Hori, his eyes softened as he saw tears welling up in Hori's eyes.  Hori-san...

[Kitsune-chan]

Stop this or I'll Kill you

Seishirou looked into the girl's scarlet eyes, unmoving. He smiled sadly, "If you must...." He watched his kijiis silently; the ninja and the mage destroying them one by one.

He nodded at the kijii pinning Syaoran. Understanding, the kijii pressed down harder; audible cracks were heard as the boy the yelled in pain and coughed blood.

[Sakaki]

Without hesitation...Fai ripped the shirt from his injured hand, and let the blood flow freely onto the remaining darts, while watching the large kiji push Syaoran to the ground. Throwing the darts with an angry cry, he managed to hit the demon, sending it too, exploding in a flash of bright light.............

Then beginning to feel rather faint, and out of weapons, Fai leaned back against the wall, sliding down to the floor, and hoped for the attacks to end.....

[Koolsnowball]

Ari finally charged back into the room, sword in hand, and yelling what was probably supposed to be some sort of battle cry.

She swung her sword, actually hitting a few of the lower-leveled Kiji and destroying them, much to her surprise.
She didn't have long to be surprised, though, as she quickly had to defend herself from another, stronger Kiji, barely managing to bring her sword up in time to block its incoming strike.

She growled quietly as she struggled with it, before she got an idea.

Ari dropped straight down, her sudden move causing the Kiji to pitch forward slightly at the lack of resistance (or so she guessed - she couldn't really tell, but that wasn't important for her plan) before she thrust her sword upwards. She could tell she had hit something (well, she was right under the Kiji, it would only make sense), but she wasn't aware as to whether or not she actually had ended up 'killing' it.
Well, that didn't really matter, what did was that she now had an opening she could use to get through to where her new friends were in the battle.
However, she quickly skidded to a stop once she saw that there were quite a few more Kiji around her than she had first noticed.

She paused to take in the scene.

"... You gotta be kidding me." Ari muttered under her breath, before readying her sword.

((Bleh... this post started good... But then... wasn't.
... I don't know what's wrong with me lately. *sweatdrop*))

[Hori]

Her eyes poured tears for sadness and Her face screwed up in pain as she faced the biggest Dilema of her life... Seeing Fai in the weak state he was in and  it was only Made worse as She painfully heared the Cracks heard from Syaoran .... Its was now or never ...

" I'm soo sorry ... " she said ...taking a dagger from its place in her pouch ..." I do this ... to protect .. My friends .. .. They need to go on to do more important things that fight this battle .. And I cant let them Die .. It is crucial that they go on ... for someones importance ..." She gave a little sob...

" I... I lo.... I love you ... " she whispered weakly .. AS she lower the knife in her shaking hand ... Bringing it across his thoat - the blade cutting deep ...
