On the other hand, Soundwave had just.. died. And in the worst way. She'd been doing her best to pretend it hadn't happened, that he'd just been ported out, but she couldn't keep that up forever and knew it. Some stress release would be nice.
She made her way to the park, "looking" for anyone who seemed out of the ordinary once she reached the best area for fighting.

He didn't really know if the girl that had ventured into his area was the girl from the communicator, but he was confident he would once he heard her voice. So he dropped down from his tree--silently, though probably not to someone who got most of their sensory information from the ground--and approached her from behind.

However, she didn't react, acting as if she saw nothing, heard nothing, knew nothing.
Until he got within arms' reach of her, that is. In front of herself, she flicked a hand, then jerked it sharply upwards, and suddenly a pillar of rock thrust itself from the ground directly in front of his face.
"It's rude to sneak up on someone, you know."

"Is it." One thing Hiei was particularly proud of lately was his increasing competency in English speaking.

Well, mostly ordinary. But that was for the best, ordinary was boring when left by itself. Boring things were not her greatest interest. Still, she was in the park anyway, and was watching a flower uncurl with a critical eye (though it was weird, it seemed to be uncurling faster than flowers had at home -- maybe it was just something about this place).

She was still in what he considered to be his territory, though, and was awfully close to the tree he was sitting in.
That was why he dropped down from the tree, silently, and drifted over to see what had her so engrossed.

Rin didn't have any sort of training, not really, and didn't have super senses or anything, so she didn't hear when Hiei dropped like a cat out of his tree and stalked over. What she did get was that survival instinct needles and pins there-someone-staring-at-me feeling after a second, and checked over her shoulder.
And jumped, because of course at that point he was almost on top of her. She scowled at him and scrambled to her feet.
"What are you doing?" Unfortunately, being startled and displeased, she slipped up and said this in Japanese.

Besides, half the fun of having to interact with people was getting to mess with them, and it was much easier in his native language.

Still. His senses weren't going off. It was probably safe. Well, as safe as challenging a stranger to a fight could be.
He breathed deeply and then took a leap off the ledge, landing in a crouch, grinning. "You're the demon guy. Right? I really hope so, because making a big introduction like that to some dude who's just enjoying a day in the park would be so embarrassing."

Still, he was obviously the man from the comm, which meant he was looking for a fight. And Hiei didn't intend to disappoint in that regard.
"I am him. You came to fight, yes?" Of course, being a language he had only recently began to seriously study, his English was...less than perfect. But it was serviceable.
Reply
Still, despite the constant sarcasm, he wasn't here to make jokes. He needed a fight. Something normal in this strange place.
"No, no. I came because I wanted to be hugged. With fists." Smirking, he sized the guy up, subtly shifting into a defensive stance. "Any rules? No powers, no hitting below the belt, or can I go all out?"
Reply
Then he drew his sword, perhaps a suggestion that he wasn't going to make his patchwork-English motives clear.
"Ready?"
Reply
While not completely confrontational, she kept herself wary, her rosary and glaive packed and ready.
Eyes decidedly fixed on the tree that Hiei was in, she walked closer with slow steps.

"Is there something the matter?"

"It's you," he said in English. This was the first time he and Mytho would be able to speak to each other in the same language.

"Let's go."
That was all the warning Mytho was given for the rush of the sword that Hiei assaulted him with immediately afterward.
