[i]Joker looked around the room as everyone gathered, splitting among groups to leave and those to stay... as the options to weigh in his mind, but he would be of more use with the hunting group than he could be of help here. If Anne and Rayne were going to stay and be a lookout, everything should be fine...[/i]

[color=ed145b]"I'll go with you guys on the hunting trip. Better than sitting around here."[/color]

[i]He stood, dusting himself off as he did so. This excursion, should the hunters info be reliable, could be a good test to see if his abilities worked the same as he was used to, as well as to see what kind of fauna could be found here...[/i]

[i]Fallen leaves, stray bark, splintered branches. All such things crunched under his boots as he took up the rear of the group, his eyes glancing to the trees, irregular in pattern and for that it was both Chaotic and beautiful. The shades of green seemed to blend with each other, melding with the bark of the trees... The forest wasnt something he was able to see in Tokyo, the closest thing that he had were the parks he went to in his free time... However, he wasnt here to take in the sights, but to hunt down whatever creature, or creatures as evidence implied, was here...

His gaze turned to the rest of the group, talk of youkai and whatever 'rahi' were, speculation of what type of creature this could be... His mind went to the Shadows of the Metaverse, but he shook away the thought. Those creature were representations of the subconscious, though their forms could be grounded in mythological texts... youkai being one such representation.[/i]

[color=ed145b]"Perhaps it's not what any of us think, but a creature native to this world that might not be from this particular area. Hunter, Derek, this monster you saw... could you describe it? Eye-witness accounts aren't the most reliable, but it might put a face to a name, or a creature to evidence in this case."[/color]
