[Shenzi...can't do much in this form. Though her ear twitches back when she hears running. Seems like that wolf demon has finally come to investigate.]

Go.

[She opens up a portal beneath everyone in the room, practically sending them to the inn.]

[bloodthirstydawn]

[Moroha lets out a surprised yelp. Though she looks to the hyena as she falls. Hopefully Shenzi will be alright.

Seth is knocking everyone on deck out. He sighs a bit]

I think that’s everyone…

[sunsetking]

[Hanako is there to greet Moroha along with some of the other girls. They’re quick to help them out.

Leona frowns.]

Then let’s get rid of this.

[His staff appears in his hand as sand suddenly rises above the waves.]

King’s Roar.

[bloodthirstydawn]

[Seth’s ears flatten a bit and he moves closer to Leona as the wave of sand appears.

Moroha grunts but helps pass them the kids. That is everyone]

[sunsetking]

[Yeah, Leona's just going to decimate the entire ship and submarine. That pirate captain though...

He'll need to find a way to eliminate him.


It's soon dawn break when everything is settled down.

Hanako and the girls are all working on making sure the children are cared for while the elder lady does gesture for Moroha to relax.

Leona and Seth are working on eliminating the last remnants of the drug/slavery ring within the village throughout the night. It won't completely get rid of them, but it'll be enough to keep the village safe from further attempts.]

[bloodthirstydawn]

[Seth slumps when they get back, his ears flat. The cat is exhausted. Mythril is slumped on Leona's shoulder too. So much work...

Moroha tries to relax but its hard. She still feels uneasy but she does thank the elder lady and tries to help where she can]

[sunsetking]

Get some rest, Seth.

[Leona sighs, nudging the cat to go to bed.

Hanako sighs softly, but nods. She directs Moroha to help make sure all the kids are comfortable.]

[bloodthirstydawn]

What about you?

[He tilts his head, looking over.


Moroha helps where she can. Though she does gather the kids around, starting to tell a story of some of her adventures when she was a young pup that got seperated from her parents and had to deal with wolves and other cool stuff. just something to keep them entertained until the inn finds somewhere better for them]

[sunsetking]

I need to talk the old hag.

[He sighs. Nodding to him, he walks off to find Hanako.


The kids all look up at her with wide eyes. They do ask questions here or there, but seem to settle down around her.]

[bloodthirstydawn]

[Seth gives a lazy wave.


Moroha continues on with her story, being dramatic and energetic at parts for effect. She use to entertain some of the town's kids before so she's use to this.]

--Then I was home for awhile doing shrine things but I pushed by the town's higher ups to be a sacrifice for a scary all powerful mega big time demon lord that ruled over us. Many maidens were sent to him and none were ever seen again...word was that he could turn anything and everything into sand and that he liked to eat young maidens....

[dun dun dunnnnn and she continues on]

[sunsetking]

[It’s a bit after when Moroha’s done telling her story that Leona finally speaks up from his place. Leaning against the doorframe.]

Didn’t know you were such a compelling storyteller, pup.

[bloodthirstydawn]

[Moroha blinks! She turns around to him...he heard all that? really?]

Y-Yeah? Well...I hung out with the kids in town alot and you pick up on things...ya know?

[Smile???]

Everything good?

[sunsetking]

Is that so.

[He hums.]

Yeah. Mind if I steal you for a moment? Need to talk to you.

[bloodthirstydawn]

[She blinks a bit but gives a nod]

Uh, sure?

[She gets up. He seems...unhappy. She figures maybe hes tired from last night after everything.]

Here fine or you wanna go else where?

[sunsetking]

Somewhere else.

[He waits for her briefly before leading her away from the room.]

[bloodthirstydawn]

[Moroha tilts her head to the side a bit and but follows after him casually. She's curious...?]

[sunsetking]

We’ve found a place for the children.

[Leona speaks up once they’re in a different room. He leans against the wall, looking tired.]

Just a town over. It’s one of the safer places for them as it’ll be protected by the Sky Demons. We’ll be smuggling them out of the fishing village to get them there.

[bloodthirstydawn]

[Moroha blinks and gives a slow nod]

That’s great news there’s somewhere safe for them. I’m glad. We’ll get them there tonight then?

[She perks and smiles]

[sunsetking]

That’s the plan.

[He exhales slowly.]

So for now, just rest and conserve your energy. Don’t push yourself more than you’d have to. Depending how tonight goes, you’ll be defense if something goes awry.

[bloodthirstydawn]

[She nods!]

Leave it to me. I’ll keep everyone safe.

[She grins more. She gets some action!]

You should rest up too then.

[sunsetking]

Yeah, yeah.

[There’s a brief pause before he reaches out, hand cupping her cheek.

He looks thoughtful for a moment.]

…you should shower. I can smell the sea on you.

[bloodthirstydawn]

[Moroha blinks at the gentle gesture. She looks up at him, a little surprised]

……is that your nice way of saying I stink?

[She doesn’t seem offended though.]

I know it was all apart of the plan…but thanks for saving me and the kids.

[sunsetking]

I wouldn’t have let anything happen to you.

[A slight frown before he pulls his hand back.]

Stay within the inn for now and don’t let yourself be seen. With how things have gone, it’s going to attract attention.

[bloodthirstydawn]

[She stares up at him, cheeks warming up again and her heart beat picking up. ]

Y-yeah. I wasn’t planning on it.

[She nods to him. She lingers a bit longer before excusing herself to go wash up. Moroha passes by him]

Make sure you get some rest too…

[With that she to the bathroom]

[sunsetking]

…

[He watches her leave before sighing softly.

This…may be an issue.

Leona shakes his head and walks off to a different room.]
