Events were happening all at once. So much so, that Shiina had to blink just to catch up. It was a good thing that she was immortal anyway because these sort of things always seemed to happen to her these days. First and foremost was the moth…fire…thing.

The vampire found herself free of the creature’s hug rather quickly as her fellow Chasers took it down efficiently. She wouldn’t lie, she did feel a burning sensation, if only briefly. Looking down upon herself, the maid frowned as her uniform seemed a little darker than usual, singe marks on the side of her attire. That was cause for concern, though she didn’t think the moth Youkai did it out of intention.

[color=ed1c24]“I’m fine Eiko,”[/color] Shiina assured with a smile, the heat on her body soon being reduced to its death-like state. [color=ed1c24]“There’s no need to worry and no need to cause a fuss over this. I’m sure he didn’t mean it. But thank you.”[/color]

She then gave a small nod to Rui-Ling as he lowered Sheridan’s gun on the moth Youkai. Just in time too because the moth thing now began to explain its purpose here. Well that was certainly interesting to know. Granted, they had weirder among their ranks as Chasers so there was little to no real surprise there.

Hearing the multitude of requests for the missions at hand, Shiina smiled and proceeded to lead everyone over to the mission board-the vampire narrowed her eyes and immediately drew a knife to her hand. Someone else was among their ranks and she cursed herself for letting the presence slip by so easily. Something else…there. A girl with green hair and a black parasol. A being that Reiko and Chikage always spoke about in hushed tones.

For some reason, the mere sight of the girl put her on edge. Thankfully though, Chikage seemed to be handling the situation nicely, if Lucille’s lack of an instant slaughter was any indication. So the vampire left the two old beings to discuss plans and whatnot, noting that the other Chasers were giving out questions concerning the various missions.

[color=ed1c24]“The Yellow Jackets are a gang of insect themed Youkai that generally go around on loud bikes and cause annoyances for everyone young master Tsuyoshi,”[/color] Shiina began while also shaking her head in polite denial to Eos and her offer. [color=ed1c24]“Young mistress Mia. Apparently this werewolf is lying in wait in an abandoned city located from within the Crimson Sky itself. It’s said that it preys upon humans who stumble into the Crimson World unknowingly. As for the Black Goat…I’m afraid I don’t know much about it myself,”[/color] she admitted.

[color=ed1c24]“But I do know that the Black Goat is a legendary Youkai and also considered the most horrific and monstrous of our kind.”[/color]
