[Sunday - August 31 - Dark Hour] Naganaki Shrine

[hearnolies]

[Despite what he promised Tohru, he's at the Shrine, during the Dark Hour and alone. He seems to have a rather pensive expression on his face, and he's certainly lost in thoughts. Is he taking after his brother and starting an emoing tradition? There's only one way to know; come bother him]

[he's been out and about during the Dark Hour lately]

... Yuu?

[hearnolies]

[turns to look at him, and he seems surprised]

Tohru..? You shouldn't go out at this hour.

[immortalhand]

[he looks aside]

... I thought I told you to notify me if you're going out.

[hearnolies]

Ah... that's true. Are you mad at me?

[immortalhand]

...

...

... No.

[hearnolies]

Really..? That's good to hear. Actually, Tohru... I wanted to ask you something.

[he walks to him, then takes his hand]

[immortalhand]

[he looks back at him]

...?

[hearnolies]

You want to be saved, don't you?

[immortalhand]

[th-that's a strange question all of a sudden, but... He's silent for a moment, but slowly nods]

... Yes.

[hearnolies]

[moves his hands now, and places them on Tohru's shoulds while he looks at him]

If... if you'll let me, Tohru...

I can save you.

[immortalhand]

[hearnolies]

[he stays silent for a while, looking at him. Then, he smiles and pushes Tohru back, using as much strength as he can]

[hearnolies]

I'll save you.

[he reaches for his evoker, and fires, using Torrent Shot on him]

[immortalhand]

--!!

[He's caught off-guard and is unable to defend himself from the attack-- his eyes stay focused on Yuu as he falls and as the rain of bullets charge toward him, searing his flesh. He lands on the ground hard and coughs, turning toward Yuu again]

[hearnolies]

[he laughs, then walks to Tohru and kicks him while he's on the ground]

Did you really think I'd want to give someone like you a chance? Pathetic.
The only way to save you is ereasing you!

[immortalhand]

[He grunts as he's kicked, but he reaches for his Evoker and fires it. The Teumessian Fox appears and casts Fast Retreat, allowing him to teleport a safe distance from his attacker, but he doesn't run away. Instead, he places a hand in his pocket, his fingers reaching for a bladed card.]

You're not Yuu...
