Usagi was out exploring. Hell sure was different from what she had imagined it to be! It snowed, and even held cages down here.

Wait. What?

The few days that Usagi had been in hell, she had yet to see a person having punishment by being locked up in a cage. That just cannot be right. Usagi approached the gilded bars, only to find that another person was standing before the cage.

She sidled up to the man's side, cocked her head and stared wonderingly at the beautiful young girl inside. "Why are you in there...?" She asked curiously.

[bloodcamellia]

Having sensed the girl's presence long before she came into Setsuka's view, she glanced at the girl, looking her over. Ah, this was a perfect picture of a purity and innocence! How marvelous!--and certainly, how rare.

"Inside 'here?' she glanced around her metal confinement and giggled yet again. "I've been kept here for so long, child, that I've forgotten the reason why~ ahaha~ The more troubling question is why I'm 'here,'--outside."

Here, she gazed out, meeting the girl's blue eyes with her own eyes, dark and--no matter how beautiful they were--somehow soulless.

"'Here,' instead of in my basement prison." And again, she laughed.

Usagi felt a chill run up her spine. No, not from the cold biting frost of the snow, but moreso from the mysterious girl in confinement. She brushed off the feeling, wondering instead how to help this somewhat sad lady.

Usagi walked foward, ignoring the tall silver-haired man for now. She placed a dainty finger against the cool metal bars of the cage. "Do you want to get out?" She asked quietly, a smile chancing her lips.

[bloodcamellia]

Setsuka answered with another laugh--full and amused.

"Why, I would love it, child! It would be nice to stand on my own feet again and walk out onto the snow," she replied.

[royalmoonbunny]

"O-kay!" Usagi readily answered. She placed her whole hand on the gilded door of the cage now. This should be cake! She thought to herself right before she tugged. But her thoughts were in vain. The thing didn't even budge. She tried a second time at tugging at the metal, her muscles nearly screaming in protest.

Finally, Usagi had to relent for fear of fainting from lack of breath. "You wouldn't happen to have a key, would you?" She asked with a sheepish laugh, rubbing the back of her head sheepishly.

The whole time he'd been listening and assessing the situation. Close enough to the bars, there was a different scent from the Purgatorium stench and the new, soft and faint fragrance--the scent of blood. It was surprisingly overpowering when close enough to the lady; perhaps it was a hint to her true nature?

As a SOLDIER elite, he wouldn't be surprised one bit if the lady behind bars was a bloodthirsty killer. However, he had no right to judge, and since the two girls had agreed to let the woman out of the cage, then he might as well assist them.

He put his hand out in front of the blonde beside him while drawing Masamune. "Get back, both of you." In two quick slices, the bars completely fell from the front of the cage and released its prisoner.

"Myyyy~ much more efficient than a key~ Thank you, sir!" And still giggling, she slowly raised herself up, seeming to float like a ghost or a vision. The kimono rustled about her as she straightened herself.

It had been so long since she was out for anything other than a job. ♥

"Might I ask your names, since you so kindly set me free? I am Setsuka of the Sakurazuka clan."
