Yoshimitsu Kazuto

By the time his other cousin; Deidre had approached the two Sakurai along with himself and Darcy. He had only turned his head over towards her for only a moment without a single word, once he had returned his attention back upon the two members of the Sakurai family, he had listened as to how Hanako had explained much of what she had just experienced with the strange man that had hopped over the brick wall not too long ago. Only giving a simple nod to understand what she had seen and knew about the male, Yoshimitsu had turned his gaze towards the wall that the male had hopped over for only a moment or so.

It was faint, almost completely gone due to the brick wall that separated them from him, but there was no doubt that the same male was still standing right over that wall with someone else. Whoever that other person was, he wasn't too sure but he could tell well enough that just having that strange presence of that male over there could mean much more then a simple supernatural being.

By the time Yoshimitsu had returned his gaze back upon the two that had stood before him. The scent of the cat being right beside Rikuno was a difficult one that he had barely noticed at first until now. Remaining silent about the cat and it's presence of energy, he had simply kept his attention upon the two that stood before him. From what it sounded like, Hanako was as open as a book however; Rikuno seemed to be closed shut to spilling any information about what she knew about the male at all. Yoshimitsu hadn't blamed her for doing so, from the little information that was already known about the girl; she wasn't one to be quite open towards really anyone around him let alone begin giving away information to anyone, let alone any Kazuto family members.

"So are you two, going to go check on that man? Or are you guys going to class?" He questioned once more to the two females that stood before him, even if Rikuno would refuse to answer that question either. Once again, Yoshimitsu woudn't have minded and simply would probably just go on his way to class. Even though he pretty much didn't mind being late now, it didn't mean he was planning to skip the whole day of school. His father would end up killing him if he found something like that out. The strange man would have to wait until after school when he had the time.

Yosuke

After giving the light meow towards Hanako, when she had knelt down to pet him. He had given her a few purring noises as he listened to how she explained to the Kazuto family members of what she had seen and heard about the strange presence of the male from earlier. His tail raising up behind him as it swayed left to right, he had tilted his own head and looked straight up towards Rikuno. The look upon her face when Hanako explained so much gave away a slight bit of easy notice that she was angered with how Hanako had done so. Reaching out, he had pawed at her leg softly to try and get her to calm down and relax; Yosuke had turned his gaze back upon the three Kazuto family members once more.

Ari Corleset

He told her she wasn't human and she laughed. It was an almost musical laugh that was as fake as could be but it sounded sincere. Her personality was as poisonous to the mind as her physical self was to the body. However she smirked afterwards and then said in an almost playful manner, "Keen observation, but I could say the same for you. Your not human either."

[“You have business with this human school?”] She looked at him for a moment as if contemplating how to best answer this question. He was clearly not on the side of the Kakashi, but there where many groups in the world so truely that didn't mean he was on her side either, however she decided to indulge him in an answer anyways. A vague answer, but an answer none the less. "Surely you can sense them in the school, the Kakashi. They do say keep your friends close but your enemies closer. I am merely keeping them within my eye sight."

Right about this time smoke built up around her feet as well as the wolfman's feet. Being one of her henchmen she was used to this by now, however when the woman appeared before them she spoke to her, "Kalypso" but she did not get much else out before the woman began to wine about the fact that she had chosen to take on the role of teacher while leaving her with very little to do. Truthfully, Ari found the act annoying, but she was not about to tell her that. Right now she needed to fule the fire, she needed to keep the girl happy.

"Alrighty then Kalypso, if you are so bored" she let out a bit of a yawn in a bored sort of way, truely this acting as a human business was exhausting. She had even been contemplating poisoning the school water system to get out of teaching that day. She pretended to be friendly to the girl, and said it in a falsely playful sort of way. "If your so bored then why don't you take my post. Be me for the day, and also keep an eye on the Kakashi in this school. Think that sounds better?"

She turned back to the wolfman again though, "I agree with Kalypso here, you need both a change of clothing and some food." She silently added to herself, As well as someone to watch over you. I can't have you running around in my territory. You could destroy everything. "I'm going to call someone to take you back to my home to help you out sugar" the same false sweetness filled the tone of her voice.

Then she turned away from both of them, no one would have thought much of it until that point but there was a dark purple six pointed star marked on her left forarm which she absently rubbed as she summoned him. "Bastian"

Damian knew better than to believe a laugh like that. It sounded real, but looks were always decieving. He was about to say something, until the other female showed up. A fiery red head, with odd eyes. He listened to her make the comment about his appearance, causing him to glance down at his clothing. He did look like he walked out of a prison and he knew it. He sighed a bit, rubbing the back of his neck.

"Fine, better not to be in the spotlight right now anyways" he says. He couldn't risk drawing to much attention to himself at this. Though at the same time, that did not mean he was going to let his guard down around these guys. He did not know them, what if they decided to betray him or tried to off him? From their reactions, he doubted they knew who he was. That was an advantage, they did not know what he could do either than.

He was not going to let his secrets slip out at the moment anyways. He looked to the redhead again as the blond gave her orders, seemed the blonde was in charge around here. He sniffed lightly, the redhead smelled like magic, and the wand was a dead giveaway. The blonde had been right, keep your friends close and enemies closer. Whichever one these two fit into, he would figure it out and deal with them as needed.



Bastian DarkHolme

Things were going according to plans. The castle was being cleaned, and things set in order by the maids and staff who served the purpose of serving the Septarian. From ontop of the grand staircase in the entry way, a raven haired man looked down on the hall below. He reached a white gloved hand up, lightly adjusting his glasses. To any, he would have seemed like a normal man at first glance. Incredibly handsome, poised and collected...unless one looked at his eyes. They were a piercing golden yellow, slightly anamilistic in nature. These eyes tended to send chills through anyone they rested upon, commanding respect, and seeming to see everything.

Every flaw, every detail, looking through to a person's very soul. And these eyes...had been the last thing that plenty had ever seen. A light smirk played on his lips, as he slowly decended the steps. He was second in command to the Septarian, Bastian DarkHolme. Many would wonder why someone with his power and stature was serving here. He had his reasons, one of them being here he had the oportunity of knowledge, sources of food, and the added bonus of the opportunity to dispose of pests in his way. He could have found all of that elsewhere if he needed, but here was fine for him for now. He was no fool, a war was coming, and people would have to decide which side they were on. His power and status were a bonus for the Septarian.

People in both worlds knew of him and both feared and respected him. None of them would be foolish enough to take him on alone, or want to meet him in a dark alley. A light growl came from his feet, he looked down to see his shadow squirming a bit. He was hungry, he had not eaten for awhile now. He did not mean human food either, he ment the kind one could only get from feeding upon energy and souls...even minds. He walked back up, heading towards his own room, when he paused. He felt another mind close, one who should not have been around there.

Changing his direction, he made his way towards the west wing and Miss Corleset's room. The door to the wing was open, and the presence of the mind was getting stronger. He made his way along, to her bedroom door. It was a large and lavish master suit, decorated to the head of the Septarian's liking. No one was allowed back here without permission except for Bastian, for he was second in comand and had her trust. He stepped inside the room, seeing a maid kneeling by the bed. A crystal box that had once resided on the table was on the floor in shattered pieces. "What are you doing in here?" Bastian asked.

The maid jumpped, standing and bowed. "I...I came to put some sheets away for the lady...and I accidentally bumpped the table Lod Bastian" she was shaking. Obviously the female had to be new, or she would have known better, his eyes went to the shards on the floor. "Lady Corleset was fond of that box..." he said. The maid bowed again, "I am very sorry..." Bastian stepped over to her, "it is quite alright...I will deal with the mistress." The woman let out a breath, as Bastian lifted her face. A light blush formed on her cheeks."Unfortunatly though, if I let you slip by...she would not be very happy...nor would the others understand what happens when you cross me" he smiled lightly. The female unable to look away, as a pain began to rise up within her head.

It felt like the combination of something pounding within her head trying to get out, and an agonizing screech that caused her to scream and collapse on the floor her body writhing in pain. He placed his hands behind his back, his shadow had connected with hers. What she was experiencing right now was a simple attack on her mind, his shadow weaving its way inside of her mind in the process. A look of sheer terror crossed her face, as her eyes widened. As soon as it began, it ended. She laid still, staring up at the cieling without blinking. She was very much alive, but her mind at the moment was completely and uterly uselsess.

He hadn't killed her, he would allow her to live until he spoke with the mistress about what she wanted done with the woman. He snapped, within a puff of smoke, what looked like a little mini blue devil with purple hair appeared. "Take her to her room" he said simply. The lesser demon giggled, grabbing the woman's foot, he drug her out of the room. He sighed slightly, kneeling. Pulling out a hankerchief, he picked up the pieces of the broken box. He was nearly done, when his own mark that resided upon his back tingled, and his eyes flashed red for a moment. His mistress was calling.

No one had ever seen the mark on his back, but they knew it was there, it was partially connected to whoever he contracted with. At the same time, he could feel her..even now. He was always concious of her emotions and her mental state, he takes a breath, closing his eyes. It felt like a rush of wind moved around him, and moments later, he was standing before her within the human worls. He crossed an arm over his chest, giving a light bow. "You called Mistress?" his eyes for a moment moving to Kalypso, then the man who seemed to be a wolf.

Eyes narrowing slightly Kalypso let out a sigh. Arianna thought she she could act well but really, she needed to work on pretending to be nice. A smile came across her face. She would be able to torment those wretched brats. She could tell the way her leader was acting was false but she didn't care, at least now she had something to do.

She glanced at the wolfman before turning her attention to the newcomer. "Oh Bastian so good to see you," she said with a wink. Raising her wand up she touched the tip of it to the top of her head. Her features began to shimmer for a second. When the shimmers went away Kalypso was an exact replica of Arianna, even her voice was the same.

Grinning wickedly she snapped her fingers, her wand disappearing in a puff of black smoke. "I'll be off now, doesn't pay to be late! Bye now." She wiggled her fingers at the three of them and took off walking. Coming around the wall she smiled evilly when she spotted the Kakashi.

Her voice boomed out as she marched over to them. "What do you think you are doing huh? Get to class right this now! If you don't march into that school in two seconds you're all getting detention. Move." She clapped her hands together at the last statement and motioned for them to go.

They would be able to tell she was different. But she didn't care, what were they going to do? She was a "teacher". Then again she was trying a new cloaking spell so they might not sense her as being a supernatural.

"Okayyy," said Darcy, cocking her eyebrow at Rikuno's strange gesture. It was quite unlike her to be affectionate in public and in of Darcy and her family at that! Brushing the oddity aside as soon as Rikuno regained herself, Darcy's thoughts returned to the strange man... being. "Yes," she said to the ever-polite Hanako,"It is a pity that you didn't. However, those um... prison pants, did you say? Whatever, they could be a lead. Perhaps he was some sort of fugitive." She turned her head towards the wall.

Although the previous feeling had dissipated, it had been replaced by a new one. One that strongly suggested that the being was close and not alone at that. Darcy's inquisitive side began to rear up it's head and was becoming hard to ignore. She would have instantly bounded over the wall, Deidre at her side, had it not been for that darn teacher.

The woman's voice cut through all of her thoughts and Darcy's head whipped around to face her. She wanted so much to ignore the commands that were being thrown at them, but she did have a reputation to uphold. Their detective work would have to wait. Hopefully not for long, though.
Answering Yoshimisu's question, Darcy said,"I guess we're heading to class."

OOC- Sorry if it's a bit short

Hanako's face blinked from her warm smile as she suddenly felt her sister's arms come around her, hugging her tightly for just a moment, before letting go. She turned to look back, seeing her sister adjust her uniform, and she offered her a bright smile.
Hanako's attention, however, also turned to the wall that the strange man had bounded over. She sighed softly, wondering the fate of the entire situation, and how it would play out. She hoped nobody would be hurt, and that maybe he would return to where he belonged.
Usually, things did not often turn out the way that Hanako hoped.

Jumping suddenly at the sound of the teacher yelling at them, Hana's heart began to race. She was not a bad student, she never missed a day of class, she was never late. Now this teacher saw her outside of class after the bell-- how horrifying! Too flustered to notice how different the teacher was energy-wise, Hanako bowed deeply and apologized profusely, bringing her hand to her face as she took her sister's hand with the other, tugging on her to urge her into the school with her.

Demons, angry spirits, deities, supernatural entities... these things didn't scare Hanako.
Teachers, police, and authority figures, however...
