A vulpine grin crossed Ayame's face when she saw Tatsuya's expression warp from laughter to nervousness. There were few things more satisfying to her than getting the upper hand in social Judo, especially when the other person started it. His compliments would have been flattering if it wasn't so blatantly obvious he was just trying to kiss her ass to regain his alcohol privileges. She didn't have any real intention of cutting him out of the deal, but he didn't need to know that. She had leverage and she was going to have some fun with it. However, before she could make him squirm, a chill ran down her spine. She looked up at the storm clouds just as Tatsuya did. Her chest tightened and she could have sworn she felt the demon blood in her begin to stir. 

Just then, Jaakuna called out to them; apparently he felt it too. [color=ec008c]"I don't think you're imagining it, Jaa-kun,"[/color] Ayame said, her eyes drawn to some point off in the distance. [color=ec008c]"I've actually been feeling uneasy all day, kind of like when you know someone's gonna jump you but you don't know where or when..."[/color] In truth, her comparison didn't do what she was feeling justice. It was way beyond anything she'd ever felt before, and for the first time in a long time, she was legitimately scared. So, of course Tatsuya had to run headlong into it.

[color=ec008c]"Tatsu-kun, hold on!"[/color] Ayame said as she jogged after him, a sense of urgency in her voice. [color=ec008c]"I've got a bad feeling about this one. Don't go doing anything stupid, okay? Whatever's going on, let's think about it and deal with it together."[/color] She jogged alongside Tatsuya towards the source of that strange feeling, and eventually came to a nearby construction site. A billowing cloak, black claws, and piercing eyes that radiated evil. Ayame's eyes went wide when she saw the thing. [i][color=ec008c]Holy crap, is this a demon?[/color][/i] she thought as her whole body tensed. She took a breath and set her bag down next to a couple of oil drums. It seemed obvious that they wouldn't be able to leave without a fight...
