[h3]The Ripper[/h3]
Shotaro and the knight had somehow managed to obtain a newspaper, which "Jack" found rather odd.  Then again, they [i]did[/i] ask nicely... How else could the man have reacted?  Still, she thought it would've been even easier to just kill him, but...

Her train of thought was derailed slightly as she felt something... [i]Fuzzy[/i] in the corner of her mind.  It took her a moment to realize that this weird feeling had been accompanied by Satori suddenly looking rather unwell, but the thought never occured to her that the two things could be related.  She wasn't really paying too much attention to the youkai earlier, after all.  Still, she wasn't sure how to react... And was actually somewhat thankful when the more effeminately looking of the two detectives approached her.

[i]"We... Uh... We have..."[/i] The small girl trembled involuntarily.  Not only was it a [i]man[/i] talking to her, but... [i]"...Mother... We have Mother... Wherever Mother is... But she is sure to find us and we are sure to find her.  No-one else matters aside from Mother."[/i]
