Tatsumi still didn't understand why any of this had happened. He'd failed - hadn't he? They were supposed to save the village together, his friends and him. Sayo, Ieyasu... He couldn't get it out of his head no matter how hard he tried. There was a tormented expression on his face as he stared down at the graves. Part of him knew he should keep moving, but he just wasn't sure how to deal with it. And then there was the matter of where he'd ended up, captured by a group of assassins. There was no way he could join the Imperial Army now, so how was he meant to save his village? He could join Night Raid, but murder didn't feel like something he could do. It wasn't about talent, but Tatsumi wasn't sure he could take someone's life so easily.

He sighed as he saw one of the assassins approaching. Probably going to try and get him to move, even if he didn't feel like it right now. Still, there wasn't much he could really do about it as Leone picked him up. The woman seemed to have decided it was her job to look after him, despite Tatsumi's repeated protests against the idea. [color=fff200]"I'm to show you around the hideout today. Have you seen the other two around anywhere?"[/color]

In contrast to the young man stood by the cliff, the cyan-haired girl perched in a nearby tree seemed much less cut up over the incident. Admittedly, she also just figured that the whole 'assassins' deal sounded cool, and the people that got murdered - sucked to be them, but she couldn't fix that now. But watching how cut up he seemed to be, she'd started to think about maybe helping Tatsumi out. Emotional stuff wasn't really her strong point, but if she needed to say something then she would. Not like she hadn't dealt with anything like this before, but she decided to wait and see if the others could help out first. Didn't want to be all sappy and cry everywhere, there was enough of that around.

Overhearing the blonde, Skye glanced over towards Rex and Bulat vefore moving through the trees with surprising grace for someone that seemed so dimwitted. If nothing else, she was definitely acrobatic. Dropping from the trees next to the pair, she waved. [color=00746b]"Morning guys. Or is it afternoon?"[/color] She glanced at the sky. [color=00746b]"Yeah, morning. I think Leone's looking for us, Rex. Something about showing us around? I'm not sure. She already grabbed Tatsumi while he was busy moping over there."[/color] She nodded towards the cliff, yawning and adjusting her case. Despite the fact that they knew about her weapons, she'd decided to keep the thing. Sentimental value or something.
