[b]"Your brother isn't the first duelist with the gift of this card's aid. And by the looks of it, not the last either."[/b] He replied in response to the girl's freak-out over where he got [i]'Void Dragon'[/i] from. When Shiyura had mentioned her brother having the card she was caught by complete surprised which nearly paralyzed her into a statue. She was not sure how this person knew about her past, but it seemed they knew something about her brother. Her brother discarded the card into the sea yet he knew he used the card once before. It was probably one of those acquaintances in the past that her brother met that she didn't know about. There were quite a few of those since she would ask him about his day back then where he would just flat-out ignore her. Her body was immobilized by the fear that had just surged through her body as her eyes began to widen where her pupils almost burst from how much they bulged.

[b]"You make an awful lot of assumptions, lady. I never said I was concerned for you. I'm concerned for everyone around you whilst you run around with a force you hardly know how to properly use. How egotistical."[/b] He called out, putting the girl on the spot. She scoffed at the comment about him being concerned about the well-being of others where her scowl was replaced by a very sadistic looking smile which made her look like she enjoyed inflicting pain on people to satisfy her reprieve. The fact he said he cared about others almost made her laugh like a hyena. This was a sudden shift in Tsukiko's personality which was probably quite unexpected. It seemed certain words changed the way the girl thought and her mood completely. [b]"Why do I care about others? They have done nothing but cause me pain. If they suffer then that's not my problem. They don't care about me and I certainly don't give a damn about them. You're a fool to think you can understand me so easily."[/b] Still her very cold expression was on her face, but that bloodlust still lie wait within her eyes of wanting to claim her first victim to satiate the suffering she felt from her past. The fact was she trusted absolutely no one and that wasn't going to change with this person warning her about the card. The fact the card caused tragedy fed her lust to unleash that havoc on others if they got in her way.

Her sadistic influence disappeared as the dark aura that slightly embraced her body evaporated. Again that cast iron scowl that wanted people to leave her alone returned, but a rather serious glow within her eyes that gave people the impression that she had become a little more serious than she was earlier. [b]"To ask me to stop using a card is a very foolish endeavor. It just makes me more curious about the gravity and reality that surrounds this card. Perhaps I will find a lot of the answers I've been looking for as long as I let it feed on my despair. I'm tired of weakness. I'm tired of running. I am not weak and I refuse to run. You cannot stop me from using this card. I will continue to use it until I find the answers I seek."[/b] She grinned slightly as she had just confirmed that the card would be a step closer toward finding out what she wanted to know. It was obvious she wasn't going to stop using the card moreover she wasn't about to tell him why she wanted to continue to pursue what the card was drawing her into. If it was the midst of chaos that would envelop her, she would face it head-on. Only a coward would run from the reality of the card.

Tsukiko decided to turn her back toward him and walk away without saying another word. There was nothing more she needed to learn as he gave her all the details she was seeking. She didn't care if she was causing tremendous strain on her body, because she would push herself beyond her limit even if it was the end of her. Mere catalysts that became innocent bystanders were nothing more than collateral damage in her eyes. If they were smart, they would not impeded her path toward discovering the truth behind the card and why her father was so interested in the her and her brother. [b]"I have nothing else to say to you. Leave me."[/b] Those were her final words as she walked away from Shiyura. There was probably nothing more she could learn from Shiyura though she was curious how he knew about her brother. As much as she wanted to ask him about that it wouldn't really serve any purpose toward finding out the truth so she discarded the idea. Tsukiko decided to make her way back toward the building. She had wasted enough time outside and she didn't want to stick around and listen to anymore pathetic sorry excuses for why she should stop using the card which she wanted to know more about.

Shinrei had arrived at the academy noticing there was some kind of commotion going on. He still questioned that feeling he felt earlier. That feeling was almost if his sister was directly connected to him somehow, but he still didn't know how that bond was formed. It was a sickening feeling since he could immediately sense she was in some sort of danger. It was just like the time when he was with Hayate. He was constantly getting distracted feeling like he was helping Tsukiko duel yet he wasn't there himself. He couldn't really explain the event since if he told anyone they'd laugh at him telling him he was delusional. Of course, anyone else who didn't have that ability would think that you were completely out of your mind. Shinrei accompanied by three of his bodyguards emerged out of the limousine that pulled off as they went into the building. 

When he opened the door to the entrance he noticed it was still light. He thought he could also sense a mysterious barrier around the area that prevented people from leaving the Floor 1 though he couldn't explain it. His first option was to use the elevator, but it was obvious no power meant no elevator so that option wasn't available to him. But the elevator being out and the lights still on made him ask what was going on? He thought about using the stairs, but there was that mysterious force to deal with which probably was what made the door feel like it was cast iron metal if you tried to knock it down. He would have to regroup with his men to weight what options they had available to them as they surveyed the First Floor seeing if anyone was on it. It wasn't like he cared about the other people on the floor. Rather it was he wanted to know if they had seen his sister, because he was almost raging inside when he couldn't reach any of the other floors to aid his sister if she was in danger.
