The Midnight Prince

[Rokag]

"I think Indou is dead." Okay more pretty sure he's dead. He didn't move and that was a good amount of blood. "He was in my room and I felt him grab me and I..." Rokag shook her head violently. "Doesn't matter. If he's dead, we can't stay here."

[Shisou]

Shisou's eyes narrow. "If h-h-h-h-h-es n-n-n-n-not d-d-d-d-ead I'll k-k-k-k-kill hh-h-h-him m-m-m-m-m-ys-s-s-self."

[Rokag]

"Well, we can check in a second, but he didn't move and I fucking smelt blood so I can't-" She cuts herself off and looks at him. She's..actually a bit scared. her hand is shaking a little and this...seems to have spooked her a little. "Fuck, this wasn't supposed to happen."

[Shisou]

"H-h-h-h-ey," he says softly, tying his robe shut before moving to embrace her gently. "H-h-h-h-ey."

[Rokag]

She jerked away a momet before relaxing into the embrace. "...fucking hells, I fucked this up. he's dead in the room and we don't even have a place to go yet and Fuck!" Rokag wrapped her arms around Shisou.

[Shisou]

"I kn-know wh-wh-where I-s-s-s-sab-b-b-ela is. W-w-w-e c-c-c-can g-g-g-go t-t-t-to h-h-h-er. B-b-b-b-but w-w-w-w-e n-n-n-e-e-e-ed t-t-t-t-o p-p-p-p-p-pack."

[Rokag]

"You did?" Rokag looked down at Shisou. "Fuck...okay, that was fast." How the hells did she already find her? She turned and started walking towards Shisou's closets. "We probably need to move fast."

[Shisou]

Shisou comes up behind Rokag, turning her toward the door. "G-g-g-g-g-rab y-y-y-y-our o-o-o-own th-th-th-things. I c-c-c-c-an p-p-p-p-ack m-m-m-my-s-s-s-self."

[Rokag]

"I...Right." Rokag looked at the door and took a breath. Besides, if he ISN'T dead, I should make sure that he doesn't just chase after us. Rokag was almost certain Indou had to be, from the fact she could smell the blood coming from him...but she needed some things, even if she was probably going to leave most of the kimonos and the fancy clothing.

[Shisou]

By the time she's done packing, Shiori has a suitcase packed and Carbonne around her neck, ready to go. "Ready?" she asks quietly. "Come on. Good call, hiding your face like that. We've got to get to the shore to find Isabela, so it's going to be a bit of a long trip. I figure we'll steal a boat."

[Rokag]

Rokag gave a quick nod. "Figured it'd be easier to not instantly get recognized." Rokag took another long breath. "And stealing boats is usually pretty difficult...unless you know where they keep the kinda broken boats."

[Shisou]

Shiori gives Rokag an odd look. "I mean, we can just take one of my family boats."

[Rokag]

"I...mean." Rokag blinked. "Oh...right, we're not being chased yet so leaving the boat isn't actually that bad." Rokag looked down and blushed a little. "Sorry, I'm more used to this when you're trying to make sure no one can tell where you went."

[Shisou]

"Right. We'll just need to move quickly." She hesitates, then, frowning. "I should... I should say goodbye. To Tsuki and my mother." But that means changing forms again...

[Rokag]

Rokag takes a long breath. "You have to. I...I didn't get to talk to my mom before she went wherever she did. So if you have the chance, you HAVE to." She took hold of her shoulders. "And you...might want to show your mom anyway. She used to have the same powers, so maybe she'll understand."
