Gotcha

[Sorin does try to keep Kamui out of trouble....

Seth and Moroha get out once the car parks. She blinks and looks around, taking it all in. She's seeing so many different places since saying at Leona's. It seems like a quiet place so far.

Seth's ears are perked as he looks around curiously]]

[sunsetking]

[Leona steps out of the car and in one smooth motion, his appearance changes.]

We'll go to the inn first and then split up from there. The old hag should be expecting us.

[With that, he leads them into the village.]

[bloodthirstydawn]

[Moroha does stop and stare at him....but she slowly follows after he gets a bit more ahead. Its...so jarring how he can do that. But she follows quickly!

Seth nods and walks with him casually. He looks around the village as they cut through it]

Doesn't seem that big or unfriendly

[sunsetking]

That's how it always looks on the outside.

[He keeps his face neutral as he leads them further in.]

[bloodthirstydawn]

[They follow close behind him though Moroha is looking around a bit more, shes just a bit slower but the inn is coming into view.

Seth perks at it]

Its a nice inn. Though....I feel like we're getting into an almost red-light district...?

[sunsetking]

That's precisely what it is.

[They arrive at a rather...large inn. Embellished in gold and lights and everything. Clearly, it stands out compared to the other buildings.

Leona waits for Moroha before pushing the pup in.]

Oi, old hag!

How dare you call me an old hag, you pup!?

[An elderly woman walks over to them, looking vaguely annoyed. Though she blinks upon seeing Seth and Moroha.]

Oh my, hello dearies!

[bloodthirstydawn]

[Moroha blinks getting pushed. She squints back at him though the older woman does grab her attention. She tilts her head at her.

Seth also frowns at Leona's words. Be more respectful... though he doesn't say it. He smiles to her and bows his head a bit]

Hello. Its nice to meet you.

Uh, yeah. Hello.

[Moroha gives a wave]

[sunsetking]

This is Lady Hanako. She's the innkeeper of this place.

[Leona sighs, moving his head back just as the old lady attempts to hit him with a fan.

Hanako scoffs.]

I haven't seen you for months and this is how you repay me? Where's that sweet man who whisked me off my feet decades ago?

You're imagining things.

[Leona tuts before he does push Moroha more towards Hanako.]

This is the quarter demon I told you about.

[Hanako blinks, turning a calculating eye on Moroha. She gently grabs her chin to turn her head from side to side to get a better look at her.]

My, what fair skin. Untouched, too. I'm surprised a fair maiden like you has been able to remain untouched by this lion's claws. [Pulling back, the old woman nods.] I can transform this girl into a thing of beauty in no time. But, are you sure you want to do this, girl? Quarter-demon or not, it can still become dangerous for you.

[bloodthirstydawn]

[She grunts and pulls back too, rubbing her face. Geez..]

I'm one of the strongest around. You don't gotta worry about me.

[She gives a grin. Though she's not sure about the whole dress up part. There is a brief glance to Leona before she looks back to the granny with her hands on her hips]

[sunsetking]

Hm, you got spunk. I like it.

[Hanako nods, looking to the men.]

Leave her to me. There will be some of those men coming by tonight for a special performance held at the inn, so you can come an hour before then. I'll have her ready.

I'm leaving her in your hands then, old hag.

[Leona looks over at Moroha.]

Just follow her directions and you'll be good, pup.

[bloodthirstydawn]

If you say so...

[Leona hasnt done her wrong yet so she gives a slow nod. She looks to the old woman giving a thumbs up]

Let's get this over with. I'm trustin' ya.

[Seth waves]

Good luck Moroha. You'll be fine.

[sunsetking]

We'll be back later.

[With that, Hanako...practically whisks Moroha away into one of the back rooms.

Leona blinks slowly before leading Seth out. He suddenly feels for the pup.]

[bloodthirstydawn]

[Moroha blinks! Whoaa!

Seth follows after him]

You must really trust that woman to leave Moroha alone with her..

[sunsetking]

I’ve known her since she was a young woman.

[Leona keeps his gaze ahead.]

We go way back.

[bloodthirstydawn]

Good to see her again, then?

[Seth smiles to him.]

Anywhere you want to start or are we holding off until tonight.

[sunsetking]

Go start making nice with the village women. We’ll meet again at the inn in two hours.

[bloodthirstydawn]

Alright...

[His ears fall just a bit but he nods]

You be safe too Leona.

[He nudges him lightly before heading over to the first group he sees. He smiles, seeming polite and warm]

[sunsetking]

[Leona watches Seth for a bit, ear twitching. Seth is...probably a little too nice for this kind of job.

Holding back a sigh, he walks off to the side before he glances over at a flower. One...that has no reason to be blooming here.]

Kao.

[bloodthirstydawn]

[It's just a flower Leona~ just observing what is going on and such. Kao is a big fish, why would he lurk around--- well the lion is certainly of interest~

But the flower is unmoving~]

[sunsetking]

[...This man.

He sighs, walking over to the flower and reaches down to tap it with a single finger--

Just to turn it into sand.]

[bloodthirstydawn]

[While it does turn to sand, behind Leona another one grows almost instantly. You really think its that easy, Leona? You got his attention after all. More flowers start to slowly bloom.]

[sunsetking]

[Leona almost wants to groan at that.]

At least say a greeting instead of just watching me. That's just creepy.

[bloodthirstydawn]

You should know better than to poke at Lord Kao.

[A voice drift by him before a pink haired male fades into existence. A second later, the second pinked haired twin appears by his brother and looks back at Leona. He remains quiet but turns to face Leona properly. Riku stands by his brother and clicks his tongue at the lion]

Kao keeps sending word to you for a visit. Why do you ignore him?

[sunsetking]

I've got my own things to handle here.

[He raises a brow.]

Clearly he's not hurting for my presence too much if he's letting you two wander free from your cages.

[He's not exactly eager to see the terror twins either.]

[bloodthirstydawn]

[Riku blinks and frowns at the lion. He takes a step towards him before Kai puts his hand up to stop him. He glances to his brother and then back to the lion]

Even so, Kao does want your company. He's getting restless.

Maybe we should just go grab the lion princess. Daddy Leona is sure to come to the underworld then.

[Riku smirks, his tail swaying mischievously]

Since Leona is so busy here and all.
