"Inari-sama!" The shinobi moves over, startled by her reaction. "What happened?"

[kinshou_kitsune]

She wasn't expecting this or encountering anyone aside from her pack. A dagger is drawn and pointed straight at Ryu's neck, a wild look behind her blue eyes, before it is slowly lowered back to the ground. Tears start to streak down her cheeks as she slides to the floor with her back to the wall. "Kazuichi. Spider Oni. Surprised us in a village..."

Reaching a hand up she pulled a strand of razor sharp webbing that had stuck into her armor out burning it in the palm of her hand. "I have to go back, Ryu! Why would the bar do this? My pack is out there.."

[falconryu]

He does take a halfstep back at the pointed dagger, brow furrowing. "I do not know, Inari-sama. But ime should not be passing, back at japan. Maybe the Bar wants you to gather your friends and allies, to return with reinforcements?"

[kinshou_kitsune]

What Ryu said could have been true. It had been the plan from the start before Will had gotten sick. The dagger falls from her hand landing with the tip sticking into the floorboard- the blade singing as it does so. "No. I cannot risk any of you becoming injured or worse..dead.."

Refusing to turn her head back towards Ryu she looks up at the wall where the door should be. "I cannot believe this would happen..not now. Not when they need me."

[falconryu]

"We already decided to risk ourselves, Inari-sama. And maybe the Bar is right in thinking you need us?" Because there is a moment to stap being 'righteous', and to accept the help offered.

[kinshou_kitsune]

Can you blame her for being worried about their well being. Drawing her knees up to her chest she looks to Ryu finally before giving one small nod of her head. Her side ached from the cursed wound as well with the want to scream in pain. She holds her tongue, however, watching the man infront of her quietly.

[falconryu]

Ryu kneels, settling down in an oriental sitting style. "Inari-sama, there is a moment to nurturing, and there is a moment to fight back. We offered our help, we decided to take the risk ourselves. We are honored by your concern, but refusing our help, leaving us behind... you insult our worth, our courage, and our willingness to fight for you, with you." Compassion is all well, but coddling them is not.

[kinshou_kitsune]

She is a mothering sort isn't she? No wonder women pray to her for help bearing children. "I mean no insult to any of you," the Goddess says softly, tears rolling down her cheeks, "You must believe me when I say such words, Ryu-san."

Raising a hand she scrubed at her face with the back of a hand causing dirt and blood to smear more so than it had been. "If you still wish to help then I will accept it. All of you."

[falconryu]

"It will be my honor." Ryu actually smiles, bowing deep to her. "I am ready, at your call, Inari-sama."

[kinshou_kitsune]

Slowly, very slowly, the kitsune kami starts to pull herself back together inspite of being dirty and covered with a spider kami's blood. "Find them then, Ryu-san. I must prepair you all for what it is we face when we are able to go back out the door."

[falconryu]

"I suggest we start with getting you cleaned from goblin ichor, and your wounds tended." Ah yes, always, always the practical man.

[kinshou_kitsune]

"Wounds?" the kami says with a frown, "I have no wounds." Total lie but she is slightly good at it..unless Ryu is able to see through such things.

"Cleaning up, however, would be a wise decission."

[falconryu]

No, but Inari's behaviour of before tips him to it. "Maybe I am just looking for an excuse to seeing you disrobed, then?" Bad shinobi, no teasing the Kami!

[kinshou_kitsune]

Inari openly stares at Ryu before a very soft laugh escapes from her dirty face. "An excuse as it may be, Ryu-san, it has made me laugh." Reaching out a hand towards Ryu she either asks for a hand up or offering to help him.

[falconryu]

"Oh, I would not dream about proposing such thing in seriousness, Inari-sama... I would never level an insult at you." He stands, and does help her up. Inari is a Kami, last thing she needs are the attentions of a lowly shinobi.

[kinshou_kitsune]

Though Ryu is quite a handsome shinobi at that. Do not think the thought has not crossed her mind.

With a groan she stands with Ryu's help, the spider demon blood droping to splat on the floor when she does so. "I know you would never do such a thing on purpose. You are to respectable a man to do so." Looking down at her armor she frowns before removing another strand of the razor like webbing that has stuck to her armor. "It will take a lot to get this cleaned off."
