[quote=Expllo] As Rio took out the last guard and came back to him Kenta nodded towards her, "Nice job," he mumbled before they took off again repeating their acts in less than a minute. Rio had improved since....Back then, he didn't want to say since last she trained with him because, well.....Yeah. Leading them into a room with a single scientist he looked at the group who had just walked in and backed away with his hands up, "H-How'd you get in here? Past security? Past the cameras!""It's called being fast, now Kenta, where is this Shinigami?" Hikari asked as he looked around.Kenta pointed to a tube in which had a body in it floating in water, though had a mask on for air. The person was naked, with long brown hair that floated in the water, and the figure also had no arms. "Hm? Who is that? I don't notice him?" Hikari asked as he squinted."That's....." Kenta looked down at the ground, "The real Kenta Makoto."Hikari's eyes widened as he was then seen in front of the tube with his sword slashed upwards. The glass shattered and Kenta's body fell out in which Hikari caught him. Kenta woke up and began coughing, eyes closed tight. He then looked up with blurry eyes but able to make out Rio and his clone, looking up he more he saw Hikari but his head fell down again. He was pissed now.....But he'd save it for later. Hikari sheathed his sword and took off his Shihakusho, wearing clothes underneath he wrapped the Shihakusho around Kenta despite his arms missing and carried Kenta as he wasn't able to walk."I'll explain everything when we get back," Kenta said turning around, "But for now we have to go, chances are that more guards have been alerted into the area." C-Kenta looked back at the scientist, "There's no time for justice."C-Kenta walked out, then Hikari walked out after Rio. Going down the hallway and large group of guards appeared in front of them, "A little too late for an escape," one of them said. C-Kenta cracked his neck, "We'll beat your ass while running through you.....You ready Rio?" C-Kenta asked before he ran off into the crowd quickly ducking and spinning with his leg out causing some to drop. Hikari ran through the crowd alongside Rio and the clone Kenta as they dropped the guards in front of them. C-Kenta unsheathed his sword and began slicing the Guards they ran through, hitting the sensitive areas to make sure they dropped.....Some for good. [/quote] [u]Rio Okotaru Darishimo[/u] Rio smiled and nodded at Kenta when he praised her, however her smile disintegrated immediately the second the group had gotten back to work. A few more clusters of guards later, Rio found herself in a room, staring at a man who appeared to be a scientist as he backed away. Her eyes narrowed deadly at the man as he stuttered and spoke. Hikari ignored the man and continued with the plan to find the Shinigami. Kenta then spoke and pointed to a tube, Rio however kept her eye on the scientist a little longer before looking in the direction Kenta pointed in, being the last to look. Once her eye had laid on the body floating within the tube, her heart stopped... [i]'... That's... N-not'[/i] Her eye slowly began widening... She could tell who it was almost instantly but still wouldn't let herself believe it... but then Kenta walked up to the tube and declared himself as a fake, revealing the identity of the actual man within the pod before setting him free. Rio was paralysed... She couldn't bring herself to move over to the tube... Instead, she only watched in silence as Hikari kept his calm composure and helped Kenta out... Thank goodness he was here too... Rio began taking deep breathes, calming herself down... Instead of feeling upset, anger racked her bones. [i]'H-...How could I have let this happen... Why didn't I notice?... Wh-why K-Kenta?'[/i] Her anger was shown quite clearly in her eye as she ridgedly turned silently towards the scientist, imagining how she was going to kill him already but before her hand reached one of her blades, the fake Kenta spoke up, reluctantly forcing her to listen up. Unfortunately the death of this scientist had been cancelled... Luckily for him they had to get out of there. Rio promptly took off with the three of them, following the Kenta clone without giving the scientist a last look... She knew that if she did, she'd find it incredibly difficult not to tear him limb from limb there and then... Kenta was much too important for her to let her urges get to her.... They soon found a group of guards blocking their way to the entrance. Rio already had her blades unsheathed before the clone Kenta had began speaking. [b]"I'm ready"[/b] she muttered before letting her swords do the rest of the talking for her, clearing the path as much as she could while taking out some of her anger. At this point, her body seemed calm as she swiftly through the crowd, dragging her swords along the guard's torsos as she held both of her blades parallel. She may of killed quite a few of them, but they had committed a crime against her Squad... But most importantly, against her best friend so their lives had already ended in her point-of-view, she was just showing them the reality of what they had done by delivering the final blow. Despite seeming clam, Rio was a raging furnace on the inside, ready to burst but forced herself to hold back...
