Lucille watched the reunion between brother and sister with neutral eyes. She honestly felt disappointed at this new development of theirs. She was expecting more fighting and more venom on their part, but no, instead what she got was a pathetic, sad, sob story. It was enough to make her sick and she turned away from the two to wander on her own.

Even so, something else flitted across her heartless shell. Something she had not felt in eternities and so initially thought nothing of it. But the more it tickled at her senses, the more she realized how truly disgusting it all was. Narrowing her eyes, she walked away to a secluded spot before eventually exiting Chikage’s shop all together.

It was there where she paused, standing away from the front door and looked up to the moon. The luminous orb made that feeling all the more stronger, but only by a shred. Closing her eyes, she let her mind wander off to a time and a place far off into the unknown, traveling to the past where memories were alive.

Yes. So that’s what it was. A nameless figure with no purpose and no story. Only a title. A monster and a human. Lucille opened her eyes at once when the first droplets of rain began to plop down upon her, wetting her green hair. The sky darkened as it began to downpour now, her red eyes alit in the dark setting.

She wanted to stay outside just a little more but knew the others would be worried about her. Especially Ikkime and, to some extent, Mizura as well. And yet she chose to stand alone in the nightly torrent, only shifting when she felt something else. Something new…yes, it was a Youkai. A Youkai that dared to enter her domain.

Blinking, she sensed the miserable wrench of a creature enter her household. How annoying. To have house guests when she wasn’t around? She could send another copy to deal with it much like how she had handled Shiina. But she supposed she might as well leave it to the new recruits. That in mind, she ordered her house to alert Zane, the mansion under her influence and living. It would serve in telling him of the intruder.

Back inside the music shop, Shiina was still recovering from her wounds but it became quickly obvious that she had to drink. She waved a dismissive hand at Ikkime, assuring her that the reunion scene was not a hindrance. The vampire would have to tell her to keep the place protected while she went out to hunt. There was an alternative action though and soon enough, the maid found herself walking over towards Eiko.

[color=ed1c24]“Mistress Eiko. As you might guess, I need to consume blood in order to regain my strength and better heal my wounds. However, there are two options placed in front of me. I must either hunt or I can drink here. I came to tell you that it is best if I hunt instead of feeding from you directly. As Ikkime-san must have told you, I can be…ravenous at times.”[/color]
