Riley wouldn’t even had made it ten steps away from her original spot, before her nose would twitch ever so slightly. Something had been burning in the city, it had too be pretty close, maybe four or five blocks away, six at the most. She would tilt her head, probably just a house fire of some sort. Her hands would move deep into her pockets as her eyes would close and she’d continue on her path. Her movement would be away from the smoke, until she would pause, and the faintest scent would hide ever so perfectly underneath the scent of wood and old paint burning. She would turn her head towards the scent, her eyes would flicker red for a moment as she’d frown. It was probably nothing... she should just turn around. Her feet would kick at the ground lightly.
Humans could need help, and she doubted her body could ignore the smell of a barbecue, so perhaps it would be wiser too help than too stand idle. Groaning softly, she’d scratch the back of her head, why did she have too go and have a conscious. She’d jump up high, landing gracefully ontop of a building. She very rarely activated her Kagune, she had other weapons. After all, how could one play the part, if they couldn’t look the part. She would move higher up, she would rather see and not be seen. Blending into the shadows all too well. Her movement would be that of a well oiled machine, built for one thing, too observe and then too react; and oh, she would react.
The cyan eyed ghoul didn’t even have too get three hundred feet of the area too see what was going on, too smell the scent that she wished she never would. Gripping her hood tightly too her face, she wouldn’t let him see her. He wouldn’t have his fight this soon, she would frown slightly. The Time hound had not been a fool, no matter how powerful she had been, it would be a dead man’s wish too move into that front. She would frown and softly sigh, she’d move ever so carefully too the path of the smoke, allowing the rough scent too cover her own.
Well, was she supposed too react first? No, observe first. Crouching low, she’d tilt her head. This wasn’t hunger, this was a statement, this was wild untamed gluttony. Such an inspiration too show her the ways of what she would never, ever choose too be. She’d watch as small forms would rush into the burning buildings, no doubt hungry ghouls.. however her eyes would narrow onto a figure who seemed too be admiring the burning buildings infront of him, his back towards her. She’d watch as the snakes seemed too crawl from the shadows.
And of course, he didn’t see her, they didn’t see her.
As long as her curious friends wouldn't get nosy everything should be well. She didn't want any confrontation, however her hands would be reaching towards her weapons, the two guns snug against her lower back.
Sage’s crimson eyes would slowly move from the burning buildings, he was the savior too his people. To the humans he would be consider, their lord or christ. He would grin as he doubted they would never question his ways. Turning slowly towards the soft footsteps of one of his more capable foot soldiers, he knew the boys name. He knew the name of every single face in his army, and the ones that would soon be apart of his army, even if they didn’t want to. He would smile kindly towards the young man, Huey was his name. He picked up a petty nickname, but Sage didn’t like too bring up such... distasteful matters, especially at the dinner table. A strong ghoul. He would speak up towards Huey, before he could say anything his shadow seemed too pull from the darkness.
Oh, so the bear decided too come out of it’s den. Amusement would swim over his eyes as Cj tried too explain too him what was better for his cause. He would stare too her in silence as she would continue too speak. His eyes would flicker between the two, Cj- she had been one of the only creatures he trusted, mainly because the young woman had been completely in love with him. It was a weakness and a strength, he didn’t encourage it openly, but it did have it’s uses. He doubted that she would ever turn her back on him, doubted that she would keep secrets. “Now, now Cj... we do not know exactly who this young ghoul is...” His eyes would lazily flutter towards his soldier.
“Huey, go bring me a living human...mmmm, make that two.” Sage’s words would be kind and soft, however a tone behind them would be very prominent that this was not Sage asking Huey, it was him telling the young man. He would wait for Huey too leave, however he would not be able too speak up Rei would chime in. Ah yes, his patience was being toyed with tonight. Speaking out of turn was something he expected from Rei, but rarely he got it from Cj. He would keep his kind smile however, as his arms would cross slowly, his deep crimson Kagune would tense slightly before relaxing ever so slowly. His eyes would look too Cj and he’d wait for Huey too leave, and he’d speak up suddenly, his words would be drench in poison, you know.. like cyanide mixed with tea. Something sweet, but deadly.
“You know, I believe, only humans will get the message I am truly trying too spread.” He would begin too the two slowly beginning one of his infamous speeches. Why did he have the faintest feeling there had been someone watching them, his eyes would glance around. He would think he saw a movement in the smoke but only for a second before there’d prove too be nothing. “For me too take the one feeling they are suppose too feel away would just prove against my point.” He would continue, his words growing louder and no doubt this would pique the curiosity of his ravenous warriors. “That they are weak and powerless, desperate creatures... i want them too watch their militaries try their hardest against us, we’ve already wiped out the priority threat..” he would pause for the moment, too breathe in the air.
“So no, Little Shadow we will not over take their media or government.”
Turning abruptly too Rei, his eyes would look over the man. “I noticed that as well, it will be dealt with appropriately.” He would say calmly. He would move from the group ever so slowly, before calling out too the rest of his warriors. “Let’s make this fast food now, I want us too be gone before the proper authorities realize what this is.”
