[color=fff200]"I'm going to get my mask and tracking gear."[/color] Kotaro simply stated as he bid farewell to his partners and then bowed to Xerxes once more before leaving. Natsuo stated he needed to get his armor, his mask, and his weapons. He bid farewell to his teammates and gave a over exaggerated bow to Xerxes. Nako said she'd meet Solanne in a bit but she was also in need of his weapons, armor, and protection gear.

Natsuo made his way to the armory and found his armor where he usually left it and put it on securely with the help of Nako who smiled at him and wished him good luck as he told her that he hoped she made it back in one piece. After doing that he left for his room as Nako went to find a wig to put on after she had grabbed a face mask that covered the lower part of her face. Natsuo whom had gone to his room found everything in order and went to his side table which held books, some handkerchiefs, glasses, face paint, and of course his prized mask. He grabbed the thing and smiled at it as he moved his hand over the smooth metal surface. It had two slits in the front of it for eye holes and a nose hole. It's mouth was also cut it too make it seem like it was constantly smiling in a mocking fashion. The eyes had two large painted stripes going down. One was purple the other one was green. It was a clown's mask to some people but for Natsuo it was a very important keep sake. It also kept his face safe in a fight. He put the straps on it securely around his face and slid it up so that the thing rested on his head and grabbed his white coat. He flung the thing around his armor and adjusted it. It wasn't anything special it was for style but it also gave him a certain look. 

Of course this was probably going overboard but hey why not. If he had to get could get rid of it and get another. Then he went over to the desk he had for himself and grabbed the sword that rested between two holds and adjusted it so that it hung from his belt. Looking at himself in the mirror Natsuo nodded to himself and left but then rushed back and grabbed his daggers before moving out towards the gate. He found Kotaro there with his typical outfit, the brown coat/cloth(covering his mouth), guns, and relatively well worn clothes, with some additions of some various forms of tracking equipment and molds. He also had a map in his hands he nodded at Natsuo as he arrived.

Nako waited patiently for her partner to come and meet her outside by the front gate. Her hair had been tied back into a bun and she now had short cut black hair. She had her face protector in her backpack and her kusarigama was hung from her belt along with a various collection of knives and a short sword. She had a bow as well just to make sure everything was covered though she disliked using it because she had little practice with it. Better safe than sorry.
