Inside of the room, Kiroketsu is shocked when Srg and Joe find him. "W-what?! How did you even-HEY!" He protests to being dragged away. He tries to sheepishly laugh off their accusations. "What, pervy? Me? Pleeeeease, that's just simply ridiculous! I-I'm Sephie's spirit guardian! She's in pain right now! I gotta stay here to help her! It's my job! C'mon!"
On the floor, Sephie shivers, and opens her eyes a bit. She's not awake, however. She appears to be sleepwalking in some way. She wipes tears from her eyes slowly, her pupils an empty white instead of the black that they should be.
"I'm...sorry........I didn't....want to...." Sephie murmurs to herself, though it looks as if she believes she's talking to someone. "...Olivarro...Sasami...w-why....the kids...fire...my fault...all me...never forgive...n-never...forgiven..."
The whole time, Sephie's been taking a knife from her bag. She points is at herself, but the tired, delusional girl drops it again before she can do anything. She closes her eyes, and crawls under the covers of the bed nearby to go back to full sleep, completely unaware of Michael's presence there.
Back outside of the room, Ammi, Meora, and Felixter turn to see Kiroketsu being dragged out of the room by force. Meora immediately reaches for her gun.
"Kiro-kun....." Meora starts with a growl.
"I SWEAR, I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING!" Kiroketsu throws his claws up into the air. "HONESTLY. All I did this time was COME BACK FROM NONEXISTENCE."
"Tch...okay...but If I start hearing any kind of conflicting stories later..." Meora slides the pistol back into it's holster with a huff, and Kiroketsu lets out a large sigh of relief.
"Now that we're in the clear...at least, for the next half-hour, maybe, I wanted to ask you something." Ammi turns to her little daughter, and picks her back up.
"What is it, Mommy?" Cloudy beams at her.
"Did anyone come with you? Did you just come by yourself? I thought Nelodine was with you and your brothers." Ammi frowns a bit with concern.
"Oh, yeah! T-they were supposed to follow me in, but...something weird happened with the portal we used to get here. It...fluc...flooc...um..." Cloudy struggles with the word she's trying to say.
"Fluctuated?" Felixter asks.
"Yeah! It did that weird thing! And then it disappeared, leaving me here...but, I think they're still coming. They can make another portal, right?" Cloudy tilts her head to the side.
"I wonder if that was the Master's doing..." Felixter murmurs, narrowing his eye.
"Either way, they should be able to make it now. The little pink punk will be too busy dealing with fixing up Nimika and Natasha." Meora snickers.
"Hopefully so..." Felixter nods in agreement.
Nimika sort of just...stands and watches Karl's antics, more interested than disturbed.
"Hm...seems to be able to summon up fighters of his own..." She murmurs to herself. In the woods behind her, there's a rustle, and she turns in preparation to strike. She lowers her guard a bit when a familiar witch in a green dress appears in front of her.
"Stupid shadows...ugh..." Natasha spits out with an angry tone. She looks at Nimika, smiling at the more welcome sight. "Ah, sister. Glad to have found you. I see you've gotten yourself a new body...the Master told me of your situation."
"I suppose you arriving here with a new body means that he's gotten our other sisters here as well?" Nimika smirks.
"Indeed. They're lying in wait for the Master's next orders..." Natasha grins back.
"Wonderful. I'd love to meet up with them. Maybe we could do a little catching up, and-AH!" Nimika is caught a bit by surprise when Karl grabs her by the wrist and starts running off with her in tow.
"Um...should I do something about him, sister?" Natasha murmurs.
"No. Just...ugh, just go and console the others!" Nimika replies before she gets out of earshot.
