Nuriko sighed, looking heartbroken. For the first time in centuries, her singing didn't seem to do a damn thing. She shook her head, tears falling down her cheeks.
"I give up..." and she walked slowly into her bedroom, closing the door behind her. Walking into the room, she glanced at the dresser, which had a picture of Nuriko and Tori together while the two children were still young. It was taken right before Tori disappeared. After stumbling over to her bed, she collapsed onto it and started crying. She couldn't help but feel that everyone would have been much happier if she had just stayed where she was. Or had just kept all her secrets. She had always told herself in the past that she kept her secrets to avoid hurting people.
Mihari sighed. "Ya know, this is normally such a happy house. This is the first time I've ever come over, and the air is so thick I can barely breathe. It's rather depressing. Even for me..." she turned around and sat on the ground a few feet away from the house.
Lillith looked between Tori and the front of the house. "Uh, sure. I guess. I was just about to go out looking for Kazuma. He chased after Hana earlier and hasn't come back yet."
------------------------------------------------
Hikari nodded. "My mother's name is Nuriko. She lives on this island." She looked off into the distance. Her attention was caught by a large mansion across the town plaza. She couldn't stop staring at it. It seemed to give off an almost holy aura. Pure...
"Do you know anything about that manor? I've seen it a few times since i've been here, but I've never actually asked anyone."

Placid sighed, "Yeah. Weird isn't it?" he said looking at Mihari, he dropped down from the ledge, walking up to Jayden. "Do your sister a favor, go find Kazuma..." he said looking at Lillith. Tori rose an eyebrow at Lillith's words. "Did he? I haven't seen him... I figured we would have seen him on out way back but..." he sighed shrugging, "Probably got trapped by a band of groupies. Not the first time it'd happen to him from what I have heard..." he said standing up and going inside. He looked inside the living room, seeing Kaiden looking rather saddened. Nuriko, gone. He sighed grabbing Kaiden by the shirt, dragging him towards his and Nuriko's room. "H-Hey! Tori! What are you do-...!?" he was picked up and pinned to the wall. Looking at him dead in the eye.
"Shut the hell up and listen to me. Nuriko, my future wife, sat with you almost the ENTIRE time you were out. Worried sick about telling you about your CHILD. Now, she is in that room, most likely crying, because you are to ignorant to realize that that woman LOVES you!" he said looking at him in the eyes. Kaiden looked back worried, not sure what to say. "She LOVES you..." Tori said letting go, "Now... Listen. She wants you to be happy. Her secrets are hurting her and she wont tell anyone because she doesn't want them to hurt the people she cares about. She NEEDS this. Fix it." he walked to the room, opening its door. Kaiden looked at him and nodded, walking inside. Tori shut the door, the two of them nodding at one another. Kaiden looked at Nuriko, her sobs making his heart feel heavy. He satat the bedside, trying to find the words he could really say.
"Nuriko... Don't be upset..." he said sighing, "I understand what you told me. Im just... trying to get used to it..." he moved to her side, placing a hand on her shoulder. "Come on... Please..." he said sitting there then remembering the song she sang to him. Trying to stay in tone, but, not doing to great of a job. His voice then became better, and he sang it for her. Just to let her know that he wasn't upset and to return the favor. He ended the song with a smile, looking at her warmly.
"Now... Please... Can you forgive me?"
----------------------------------------------
When Aniko heard her say her mother's name she froze. Her eyes became worried, "N-Nuriko...?" she said gulping, Hikari's question made her look toward the mansion, the one Kazuma seemed to be walking toward. "I-I... I don't know much about it..." she said looking away and taking her arm, "C-Come on... Let's worry about it later! I will help you find her! Promise!" She became severely nervous. "Death is her mother?! What that hell?!" she thought to herself as she led her to a entrance to a fancy Sushi bar, opening the door for her with a nervous smile with a drop of sweat falling down her brow.
"Let's think of ideas to find her over a meal..."

Nuriko smiled a little, sitting up on the bed and calming her sobbing. She couldn't help but chuckle a little. "Tori, you're too rough with him. And while he was PART of the reason I came up here, I don't blame him in the least. If I had just been told I had a child and I don't even remember anything about us being together, I can imagine I'd be pretty confused too...." she stopped for a second. She could feel a presence in town. Famine? She looked outside.
"Walk with me." she asked, looking at Tori and Kaiden as she walked back outside and to the front gate. Jayden was already standing there, and it seemed as though Kazuma was walking toward the house. Nuriko looked at her son.
---------------------
Hikari shook her head. "I don't even like sushi..." She stared at the house, noticing that Kazuma was walking towards it. "I wonder if he lives there..." she said, following behind him out to the town square and dragging Aniko with her.

The moment Tori and Kaiden started walking behind her outside. Placid watched in confusion, "Something's up..." he said looking to the sky, still cloudy from before, lightning filling its glaze. "This is getting rather interesting..." he said sighing walking into the manor. Once Kazuma saw his parents, he stopped. "Oh... Im assuming Hana is okay...?" he said looking at Tori, then his gaze hit his mother. "M-Mom?!" he said smiling, a tear in his eye as he ran to her and hugged her. "MOM! I... How!? What happened?!" he said letting go and backing up with a giant gsmile on his face. "Are you okay...?" he asked her. Tori ended up answering for her. "Yup, as fine as she can be really with everything going on." he said as Kaiden stopped next to him. Kazuma could hear some commotion from behind him, he turned around to see the two girls from a few minutes ago, Aniko being drug behind Hikari.
"Oh, you guys..." he said as Aniko saw Nuriko leading the pack. "U-Uh! No! Let go!" she said trying to pry Hikari loose, "Im gonna be in so much trouble!" she said finally getting loose. She stared at Nuriko, nervously backing away. Then, tears came to her eyes, "No!" she said backing away further, "IM NOT GOING BACK IN THAT PLACE!" she said looking rather prepared. A black aura formed behind her, rather large. "I... Don't... Want to hurt anyone... No more trouble...!" she said shutting her eyes, she held her head and shook it, starting to run off. Then, the Aura spoke. It was in whispers, practically not understandable, but, menacing and deep.
"(Why are you running...?"
Aniko stopped in her tracks, looking at the aura. Only people she allowed to see it could and at that point, everyone there could. She looked at the aura, sniffing and almost about to break down. "I-I don't want to go back to that cave! Kikin, help me!" she said almost wanting to bawl, the being laughed at her and the aura gave off an ominous set of red eyes. They looked down at her, leering.
"(You are not going back into any cave... Death... Will not put you there...)" he whispered, the girl looked at him confused. "(She wouldn't do that... You... Should know better... Stupid..." he chuckled, and the girl stood up, looking over at Nuriko, rather irritated looking. "Stupid...?" she said standing her ground. She leered at Nuriko, almost unable to move. Then, she teared up walking toward her.
"...SISTER!" she said grabbing onto Nuriko, her height being no taller than Nuriko's breasts. The girl looked up, "You are here! Please don't put me back in that cave! PLEASE! DONT PUNISH ME AND PEST! WE DIDN'T DO ANYTHING WRONG! Well, I DIDN'T!" she said letting go, she looked like she was begging. Her hands together, eyes wide with worry, and knees shaking.
"Please...!"

Nuriko smiled, then placed a finger on her mouth. "Shh. You're brother is sleeping. You don't want to wake him up now, do you?" she hugged Aniko. "Don't worry, I never have, and never will lock you up."
Nuriko looked up and made eye contact with Hikari. They stared at eachother for a few minutes. Then Nuriko smiled at Hikari.
"Hello. It's nice to see you again after so long..." Hikari nodded, turning to look at the group of people outside. Her eyes fell on Kaiden, her bright blue eyes piercing into his, looking identical to her father. Then she smiled softly, bowing to the group.
"Sorry for the inconvenience. My name is Hikari."

Aniko wiped her tears away and smiled, "I missed you sister... and... TORI?!" she said looking at him and her smile was large. "Oh my god! You waited here for me!? My hero!" she said jumping into him and holding him. He looked at her and they hit the ground. Her on top of him. "I cant believe you waited all this time for me! You are so sweet!" she said snuggling up to him. He put on a nervous smile, getting up. "Hello to you too Aniko..." he said giving off a nervous sigh. Aniko giggled then looked at Kazuma, then back to Tori. "YOU TWO LOOK SO MUCH ALIKE!" she said becoming super surprised. "Well, he should, he is my boy..." Tori said rubbing his head, raising an eyebrow. Aniko froze in place, "Your... boy...?" she said looking at Kazuma. "You had... a child...?!" she said and Tori sighed, "Yeah, two... He is the youngest..." he said giving her a nervous smile.
"...What?" she said looking at Kazuma's eyes. "Blue?" she said turning her head towards Nuriko. "What...!?" she yelled as she pointed to her. "YOU STOLE MY TORI TOO!?" she began to clam up with anger. Tori watched her and sighed. "Aniko, calm down... For one, we were friends, I never dated you because you always wanted to be with... him..." he said pointing to Kaiden. Kaiden looked at him, then Aniko. "Me...?" he said point at himself, the girls eyes grew again. "KAIDIE?! OMIGOSH!" she said tackling him to the ground. "I can't believe its yooooou!" she said snuggling him same as Tori. "H-Hey! I don't even know you!" he said, she stood up and looked stunned, "Don't.... know me...?" she said as her mind shut off.
"Well, Aniko seems to be like she was those years ago... Glad to see nothings changed..." Tori said looking at at Aniko, who at this point was frozen in place due to shock. Kaiden looked at Hikari, walking up to her. He looked into her eyes and before long became entranced. He felt like he could think and she would be able to here it. He shuddered, backing away from the girl. "You... You're Hikari..." he said shaking a little, "You are... my little girl...?" he said looking at her and smiling. "We never got to meet... My name is Kaiden... I am your father..." he said almost unable to handle the situation. Tori smiled at the reunion, feeling a bit warm inside. Then, it began to rain again, making it a bit darker than usual. Aniko looked behind the group, shaking off her stunned emotions, to see a figure in a dirty hoodie, standing a few yards away. The sounds of hissing and clicking could barely be heard over the rain, but, she knew who it was. She took a step forward smiling, "Big brother...?" she began to walk forward, smiling. The boy stood there eyes bent in anger.
"You again... Damn..."

Hikari hadn't heard much of her father, other than the situation was incredibly complicated. She watched him, almost curious. She almost felt like she was looking in a mirror if she looked at him for too long. But at the same time, she got an odd feeling from him. She could tell he was nervous, maybe even a little scared. She smiled a little and bowed.
"Nice to meet you."
Nuriko sighed, looking irritated. "Byoki... Aniko. Not now, please." She said, rubbing her head as she looked between the two. Then she looked at Aniko. "Kaiden has no memories of anything back then. So give him a break." she said, looking rather sad for a minute. Then she smiled, looking around at everyone. She found the fact that Kaiden and Hikari were staring at eachother kind of cute, even if it was rather awkwardly. She turned to Pestilence. "Did you get enough rest?" She raised her eyebrows at him, looking curious.

When Kaiden heard her speak, he became even more unsure on what to do. "Its... Nice to meet you too..." he said really afraid of what would come of this meeting. "Its... Great to finally meet my daughter..." he said pushing down the lump in his chest. The two Horsemen looked to Nuriko, "Byoki...?" Pestilence grunted, "You still use that cutesy nickname for me?", Aniko smiled at her sisters words and giggled, "Oh come on! We aren't doing anything wrong..." she said folding her arms. Pestilence shook his head and leered at her, "...Yet." he said turning around, going back inside. Aniko sighed and shrugged, "Such a party pooper..." she turned to the group behind her, looking at Nuriko, then Tori. She sighed and began tapping her foot, which seemed to help her think. "Sister... I think I am going to go... Home..." she said walking past the group, stopping just as she past Hikari. Her face somewhat saddened.
"Im happy you found your mom... Uhm... I think this means we can't hang out anymore..." she said looking dead ahead, smiling. Tears falling from her eyes. She felt awful, she knew that with Hikari finding what she was looking for, she may not stay. She most likely won't even have time for friends, let alone a freak, now that she has found what she had been looking for this whole time. Aniko sniffed and sighed, "I... I hope you found that happiness Hikari... Bye..." she said walking off, leaving a trail of tears behind her.
"(You are pathetic...)"
"Not now... I don't want to hear you make fun of me..."
"(I make fun of you when you are acting like an idiot. Granted, that is quite often...)"
"Shut up!"
"(Listen, your jealousy against Nuriko is only hurting one person... You.)"
"I-I... I am not jealous of her!)"
"(You didn't cry because she was going to put you away, we both know that. You cried because you knew with her around, you wouldn't be the center of attention anymore...)"
"Shut up! THAT NOT IT!"
"(The longer you sit in that pool of lies the longer you will know what the pain of being alone REALLY feels like!)"
"..."
"(Your jealousy existed before you and I were to become one. The reason I chose you was because I knew deep inside... You were as ugly and scarred as I am on the outside... That, I could fix your heart, unlike how I cannot be healed.)"
"Kikin..."
"(Your envy only hurts you, Aniko... Let go of that jealousy and just learn to be a part of that family again. Learn what it means to Nuriko to have a sister... Hikari will not run and leave you behind because of this, if anything it would be easier for everyone that she is with her birth mother. It means that she can spend time with her AND you, which in turn means you can spend time with your sister and your best friend. Just let go...)"
"...Okay, I-I... I will let go... I can do that..."
She stopped a few yards away, rubbing her eyes. They were a little puffy now from the silent crying. She wouldn't look at the group, she stood there trying to hold back the tears. She wasn't very good at it, making her look a child. "I-I..." she began before turning around with her head pointed to the ground. She rushed over to Nuriko, holding onto her. Silent sobs and tears falling from her. As Kazuma and Tori watched, a warm smile on Tori's face; A Confused look, on Kazuma's. She whispered to Nuriko, so low only hoping that only she could hear her words.
"Sister... I'm sorry... For being a big baby..."
----------------------------------------------------
"How sickening..." Pestilence said as he passed Placid. Placid turned to him and rose an eyebrow, "All the affection is getting to you already?" he said sounding rather sarcastic. Pest turned to him with a glare, "What's it to you?" he said leering at Placid. Placid could hear the tone of anger coming from him. "You seem rather upset to be here, yet, you won't leave... To me it seems you are a bigger wuss than you leave us to believe..." he said hoping to get a reaction. Pest looked at him and grunted, "You are lucky that my Sister likes you all so much or you'd be kneeling before me...!" he said as his mask whisped and clicked.
"Sounds like alot of tough talk coming from someone with the voice of an old man in a nursing home..." Placid said, knowing that would be enough. He hopped down into the yard. Pest stepped into the yard, the mask clicking more than ever. "You have a big mouth for someone with absolutely zero abilities!" he said chuckling. Placid stood silently, eyes halve opened, and hands in his pockets. His open button-down dress shirt blowing carelessly in the wind. "Whats the matter?! Run out of funny things to say?!" Pest said, becoming quite irritated. Placid looked at him and sighed, "Fine, want to hear a joke? Pestilence." he said as the wind blew through his hair, moving it out of his eyes. Pestilence took it to his bones, dashing forward and throwing a multitude of punches. Placid kept his hands in has pockets, just bobbing and weaving in and out of danger.
"Sit still!" Pest yelled, Placid sighed. "Fine..." he said standing still and hitting Pest in the chest once. When he did, Pest stopped, stumbling backward. His breaths were now struggling wheezes, loudly trying to be brought in. "HURGH.... YOU.... ASSHOLE!" he said falling to his knees, shaking violently. He grabbed his face trying to reach for the mask, Placid moving forward grabbing his hands and holding them back.
"Look at me. You know who I am. Respect any and ALL who live in these premises. You look down on ANYONE here and I will show you what living with WAR was REALLY like!" he said, the boys eyes, wide with fear. That's when reality kicked in, Placid let go and the boy fixed the rebrether, allowing him to stabilize his breathing. He fell to his hands and knees, angry. "Gah... *cough* You... are an asshole..." he said as PLacid walked into the house. He stopped looking back at the boy in the yard, his face was as it usually is.
"It takes one to know one doesn't it?"

Nuriko smiled sadly, holding Aniko close as she cried. She looked at Pestilence, watching as the two fought. She sighed, shaking her head. When Placid walked inside, she spoke, eyeing Pestilence as she did so. "I call you Byoki because it is the japanese word for 'sickness,' and it is easier to say than Pestilence. I wouldn't call that cutesy."
Mihari walked in after Placid. Sneaking up behind him, she wrapped her arms around his waist and rested her head on his shoulder. "I normally wouldn't care about you instigating fights, but just be careful. Nuriko seems to have alot on her plate without people she cares about fighting among each other. Not to mention she just got back and hasn't had time to properly rest yet. Too busy worrying about everything else." she looked sad as she held onto Placid.
Hikari smiled, looking somewhat concerned. She found herself strangely intrigued by Kaiden. She chalked it up to the standard 'sons are closer to mothers and daughters are closers to fathers' scenario. Even more so that she knew little to nothing about him. She glanced over to her mother, who was starting to look exhausted. Looking at the time, she smiled to her father again. "I need to get home. It's getting late, and I have things I need to do. I will come back another time. Do me a favor, make sure she gets some rest. She looks like she's overtaxing herself..." She smiled, calling out to Aniko. "I'll see you tomorrow Aniko. Try not to drive yourself too crazy while I'm gone!!" she laughed a little, then turned and walked out the front gate, looking remarkably like her mother.
Lillith had walked into the house and walked into Hana's room to check on her. After knocking on the front door, she walked into the room, closing the door behind her, and sat next to Hana.
"How are you feeling?"

Pest stood up and grunted, walking away from all of the people. He made his way to the nearby coast, still messing with his mask. He sat down looking at the water. He was highly irritated, how could someone plant him THAT easy? Did he get rusty? Whatever... His thoughts drifted off and before long he wasn't that mad anymore. The guy had a point, he was being an ass. But, what did he mean by what he said?
"You look down on ANYONE here and I will show you what living with WAR was REALLY like?" he said to himself, he said it to himself over and over. He sighed as the thought berated him. "I don't know what he is talking about..." he said to himself. Before long, Aniko let go of Nuriko smiling. "Thank you sister..." she said watching her brother in the sand. She made her way to him and sat next to him sighing. "Brother..." she said sitting next to him, "You want to talk?" she asked him and he scoffed, "To you? I'll pass. Now go away..." She sighed shaking her head.
"Come on... You can talk to me. Will you at least let me sit here and keep you company...?" she said looking over at him, he sighed, not even looking in her direction. "...Fine. But... Just stay quiet..." he said as the two of them just looked out into the ocean. She laid her head on his shoulder and sighed.
"Thanks..."
-------------------------
When Mihari grabbed him and spoke, he nodded. "Don't worry, I was aware of that. I wasn't expecting him to go feral though. But, I guess it was a point made. I want him to break that thick headed attitude before it gets him killed... Again." he said remembering that day, 'The Rise of Nightfall', he called it. "It isn't time for this again." he said turning around to see her. He kissed her and held onto her, almost in a position that looks like they were about to slow dance. "There's no need to worry about that stuff... I will take care of it any way I know how without any casualties..." he said kissing her again.
--------------------------------------
"Am I okay...?" Hana said curled up, "Not at all..." she said sighing. She sat up, holding her hands to her chest, "I feel terrible in more ways than before..." she said, not even looking at Lillith. "I feel like my heart is ripping in two..." she said tearing up, "I just want that pain to go away!" she said starting to cry.
"I'm in so much pain Lili..."

Nuriko smiled, following behind the two. She sat next to Pestilence, remaining quiet while looking out over the water. She sighed softly.
"That was Placid. Kaiden's brother. The one who had Kaiden sealed inside him all that time. Just so you know who you were fighting. That's why he said what he said." She looked at the two, then back out over the water. "The kaiden at my house? He is only part of him. The 'pure' half, I guess you could say. The part that still had some form of a heart, that didn't want to do all those things. The part that wasn't eaten by Nocturne. He has no memories of anything prior to that battle. Not even us..." she sounded remarkably sad as she spoke.
Mihari nodded as she listened to him. She was surprised by his sudden kiss, blushing as he held her. She smiled and nodded to him again before he kissed her again, leaning into the kiss to make it deeper, holding him against her as she felt her pressed against his chest. As she pulled away from the kiss she smiled, bringing a hand up to brush some hair out of his face and run her fingers over his cheek softly. Then she began trailing her fingers down his neck, across his chest, blushing. Then she smiled, pressing herself against him and wrapping her arms around his waist again. "Can we go home? Or do you want to stay here for the night?"

Placid smiled at what Mihari was doing, "Well, by your current attitude... I am assuming you want me to go home with you..." he said kissing her again. "Ok, lets go home." he said taking her hand, he looked outside to see Tori walking back up to the house. "We are leaving, if the kids stay take care ok?" he said and Tori nodded, Placid looked at Kazuma and leered. "Take care of them BOTH Tori..." he shouted and Tori snickered, "Yeah, yeah! There won't be any issues." he said, Kazuma sighing in nervous anxiety.
"See you all later... Give Nuriko our good-byes!"
---------------------------------------------------
Pest sat there shaking his head. "I swear these people get weirder and weirder..." he said looking into the water, shutting his eyes. Aniko sighed, "I don't think they are the weirdest ones..." she said taking his hand. He looked down at their hands connected and he took Nuriko's hand. They were all linked, like they were always. "I suppose... Everyone is weird..." he said and he sighed. He squeezed their hands and his eyes remained closed. His mask continued to whisp and click as usual, Aniko looked at him and watched for a moment before bending forward and looking at Nuriko smiling. He finally opened his eyes, looking highly determined.
"I think we will be okay... Even if HE comes back..."

Mihari blushed at Placid's comment. She held his hand tightly as they went to leave. Placid's request to Tori made her laugh. Then she waved goodbye to everyone and began the walk home. It was rather quiet, but they didn't have to walk too far to her apartment. When they reached there, the apartment was mostly dark, except for a lamp she left on in the living room. She closed the door, then grinned at Placid before leading him down the hallway a little. Then she pressed herself against him, pushing him against the wall a little as she ran her hand across his cheek before kissing him deeply.
Nuriko smiled when Pestilence grabbed her hand, tightening her grip on his hand. She rested her head on his shoulder for a few minutes. For some reason, she had always been able to keep Pestilence rather calm and somewhat under control. She thought it probably had to do with her being the first harbinger. He didn't allow anyone else to get close to him, but her and Aniko. Even if he did tease her alot. She stood up, looking down at him.
"I need to go get some rest. It's been a long and remarkably hectic day for me and I haven't really slept in 3 days. You may stay at my place if you would like. Just..." she smiled at the two. "Try to stay out of trouble for me." she had a very happy and somewhat amused air to her when she spoke.

Placid held onto her as she kissed him, making the moment last longer. He backed off allowing him to smile, "It's a relief that after the day I had... I can come home to you..." he said kissing her deeply. He let off and smiled at her, holding her really close. "Now, why is you wanted to come home so badly?" he said almost teasing her about it.
"Well?"
--------------------
As Nuriko stood up and left the two, Aniko stood up and dusted herself off. "So, I am assuming you are going to stay with Sister? I have my own place as well. But, I wont ask you to stay unless you prefer to." she said smiling, he scoffed at her offer. "Stay with someone as annoying as you? Thanks, but, I will pass and stay with Sis." he said standing up and he was still holding her hand. "Thanks though... For staying here with me PITA..." he said walking off. She growled at him and he laughed at the tone she gave off. "Stop caling me that! GOSH!" she said folding her arms. She smiled at his remarks, though she hated that name, it was his way of showing her that he cared enough about her in his own way. He will never say things like "I love you." to anyone, not even Nuriko. So, she accepted that he will go as far as a silly nickname. Even though it means something less than reputable.
As Pest walked into the manor Tori was in the kitchen sitting there enjoying some warm tea. Something he did usually enjoy, but, accepted as a drink great for rainy days. Pest joined him, sitting across from him. Tori looked at him and crossed a leg, gripping the clay crafted cup that held his drink. "You seem rather well, giving you came out of the dirt not to long ago. You feeling okay?" he said, Pest blinked and looked at himself. Dirty.
"I... I guess I could go with being clean I guess..." he said chuckling. He looked at the team Tori had and then sighed, "Could I ask you a question?" he said looking slightly irritated, almost embarrassed. Tori rose an eyebrow, nodding. "Sure, whats up?" he said taking a sip of tea. Pest looked away and sighed, "Could I get some tea...?" he said and Tori smiled, "Sure, but uh..." he began unsure how to ask his question."How do you uh... Ya know?" he said motioning the mask. Pest sighed again and shook his head, putting his hand on the mask. He clicked a side, allowing a port to be seen.
"This port here, is for liquids... I require a... a straw..." he said still looking away. Tori nodded, "ah, I see. I can get ya something, one moment." he said getting up and grabbing another cup, adding tea and putting a straw in it and placing it in front of Pest. The boys eyes fell on the cup and the gradient colors became a bit warmer. "Thank you..." he said putting the straw in the small port. Tori watched, trying not to be rude.
"That must be rough huh...?" he asked, the question made Pest nod. "My Harbringer, Aesthenia, and I had complications that were not seen during the initial fusion. Even though we both accepted each other... I still couldn't handle her completely..." he said feeling the Harbringer shudder. "I don't blame her though, I feel that even though this burdens me highly, I am stronger for it." he said looking at Tori, warmly. Tori smiled and nodded, "Thats good to hear, a shame, but, good in its own way I suppose. I know having a Harbringer isn't easy. Mine, Parshath, is currently assisting Kaiden..." he said smiling, "I think you are a good kid, though, you are very temperamental, I still think you are easier to talk to than most." he said standing up and pouring another cup of tea for himself.
"Keep this in mind Pestilence, if you even need someone to talk to and Nuriko isn't there... I think I can assist. I mean, to hard heads together are better than one eh?" he said patting him on the back. "I know it might not mean much from me, but, trust me. Venting is more helpful than you think. Your Sister is doing her best to do that, but, today is a bit more than hectic." he said walking toward the door. "You can sleep on the couch if you care to stay, I will have Kazuma bring some spare beddings for you..." he looked over at Pest and smiled, "Glad you are doing okay. Good Night Pest..." and he walked out of the room. He walked upstairs to Hana's room and stopped at the door. Not really sure what to do, he knocked on the door. "Lili... Your parent's went home... If you want to stay then you may." he said sighing, he walked away and headed back down stairs.
"I hope everything is going well..."

Mihari grinned, pressing her chest against his. "I always love the fact that I can make your day better..." She teased his lips with her tongue before kissing him deeply again, her hands running over his bare chest. She blushed as she placed her hand on top of his, guiding his hand over her body. She withdrew from the kiss, gazing into his eyes lovingly, though lust was showing in her eyes as well. "Figured it would be nice for us to get some time together, just us two, so I can help cheer you up." she grinned at him before leading him into the bedroom, pulling his shirt off as she did.

Nuriko came home, exhausted. Barely paying any attention to anyone, she walked into her room and closed the door. She looked toward the bathroom that she had attached to her bedroom, deciding to take a shower. The hot water was very relaxing to her, and it helped relax her muscles. Her wounds were still rather painful, and she had a few bad scrapes and bruises on her arms and legs, but other than that she was starting to feel more relaxed. She felt clean, at least. Turning the water off, she wrapped a towel around her middle and sat on her bed, rubbing her hair down with another towel. Then she sighed, smiling.
