Yoichi let out a soft yawn as he stretched and made his preparations for the morning, One of the rare occasions where he wasn't with the Guild Master. It was no secret by now that him and the Guild Master were dating, Considering how much time they were spending with each other. He slid out of bed quietly and slowly as he pulled his trousers on, then his shirt and finally, As he began walking out of the room, His jacket. He closed the doors silently as he left, Making sure his footsteps were as light as possible until he reached the stairs, At which point he launched himself off the top of them and right down onto the floor below "GOOD MOOOORNING!" He called out to everyone else in the Guild, Weather they paid him any mind he didn't care for. He walked right over to the Mission Board and grinned upon seeing the mission he wanted was still there.

"Perfect!" He grinned, Quickly snatching it off and waving to the barkeep "I'm off to do the Escapee mission" He called as he headed for the door "Let Riley know where I am if she comes looking"

"Seems the duckling is away from the duck." Murmured Fiora silently inside Miki's head. She blinked and leaned back to look in the direction Fiora seemed to be gazing off at and her eye sight caught hold of Yoichi. "So he is..." She trailed off before standing up. "None of my business what he does." She brushed off her jacket and placed it on before heading to gaze at the board. "He took the mission we were going to do..." Miki's red eyes glanced in the direction of Yoichi, narrowing slightly with clear irritation. "That's... A bummer"

"Just take off your damn choker." Fiora stated bluntly, the intimidating tone in her voice caused Miki to flinch and then she nodded and sighed, taking off the choker and began to glow. As her body increased in proportion, seemingly to get a bigger bust and wider feminine features, her eyes became more elegant and her hands rested on her black dress before she headed over to Yoichi and pressed her hand on his shoulder. Leaning past him, she tilted her head with a smile. "Excuse me, but you seem to of taken the mission I was going to do." She had a sweet smile on her face, before she moved in front of him and leaned over. "May I join you?" She flickered her red eyes before leaning back and the smile disappearing. /That bites./ she thought quietly.
"That was a good act..." Miki applauded inside Fiora's mind.
"Seriously though. You seem to of taken the mission I was going to do after I had my lunch, may I either A - Have it, or B - Join you?" Her red hair flowed over her shoulder as she shifted her gaze to the side, irritation sparking from her. Brushing her fingers through her red hair, she chucked it back over her shoulder and glanced back towards Yoichi. "Or is it for you and Riley?"

[Yoichi Sugiyama]

He was in mid stride as the hand grasped his shoulder, His eyes flicking back as his right hand grasped the hilt that was placed inside of his pocket, Turning and swinging it in an upward arc as the blade appeared as it left his pocket, His foot kicking him backwards away from the female that had snuck up on him. He was still relatively new to the guild all things considered, He knew of a few people, Most notably Riley, the Barkeep and Riley's Guild Assistant though he'd never met the man. Since he spent most of his time with Riley, It was understandable if he didn't know you, He wasn't too fond of you sneaking up on him, Though he wasn't too fond of anyone sneaking up on him. The only person that could do it, And get away with it, Was Riley and that was because he knew her magical signature well enough to know when she was near.

By now he was crouched a bit and poised with his blade aimed at her "Who are you?" He demanded in a commanding tone, His eyes narrowing some as he glanced at the paper then back to the female, Refusing to answer any of her questions until she answered his. "No, I was planning on killing the fugitive alone" He stated in response to her last question about if it was for Riley and himself "Now I'll ask again, Who, Are, You?"

[miki]

Instantly, Fiora leaped backwards and lowered herself to the floor, a small cold breeze touched her shoulder and chest and she could see he almost slashed her if she hadn't responded fast enough. She gritted her teeth and swallowed back the irritation of which the male was throwing at her. As she stood up, Fiora didn't even flinch when the guy had leaped away from her with the sword still pointing in her direction. /This was my best dress too.../ She folded her arms and watched him with great interest afterward, her shoulder and chest stinging slightly. "I'm Fiora." She stated calmly, a small smile coming upon her face and her red eyes narrowed to slits. "Not somebody who will assassinate or rape you. I don't do that to." She cocked her head to the side and sighed. "I'm just a girl who was simply asking if I could join you in that mission you have on your hand." She pointed out. "Technically it was mine in the first place - seeing how I was the one who was going to do it."

She scowled, somewhat annoyed that somebody who doesn't even know her was going to possibly murder her. This wasn't the first time a guy who knew Riley pointed a weapon towards her without fully understanding the surroundings. "Now, I'll ask again; Can I maybe do the mission with you or without you?" She pressed one hand to her hip, her red eyes opening fully and revealing the sincerity that was in them. "I've always wanted to meet the guy who is making my Riley happy, so this is like an opportunity."

[Yoichi Sugiyama]

The blade on the sword vanished as the girl introduced herself, Shoving his hands, along with the blade and Job paper into his pockets as he turned away from her "Sure" He said, Starting to walk out. The 'Sure' was clearly in response to her joining as he didn't seem to have any intentions on handing her the paper "And just so you know, Sneak up on me again like that" He paused, stopping and tilting his head back to look at her (Look at Icon to see how exactly he's looking at her) "I won't hesitate to kill you. Riley is the only one allowed to come at me from behind without me attacking, And she is the only one that will ever be able to do so" His eyes showed his words had no lie in them.

Yoichi came from a murderous background, Before he joined Griffin Wing, He killed criminal's for fun so he was accustomed to killing. That, Would also explain why he planned on not trying to bring in the fugitive, but rather he aimed to kill him. His head tilted forward again as he began to move towards the door once again, Opening it and waiting on the outside of it for her "you going to just stand there or are you going to come?"

[miki]

"Right...?" Fiora murmured, somewhat amused by the change of attitude this guy had. "You know if you do decide to kill me..." She ran up to him, standing by his side and then leaving the hall. "Riley wouldn't be too happy now, would she?" She headed out, turning on the ball of her heel to gaze at him. "Since she is after all - like a big sister to me." She winked, a small smirk on her face before she gazed upward. "So, where do we go from here - captain? Seeing as you have the paper and I clearly see no sense of you going to give me it so I can lead the way. All I know is to look in the wilds, but I'm going to make a guess of heading towards Sleeping Forest - that is where we may find him."

She turned to head in that direction, her boots clicking against the flood and her arms folded.
"You almost killed us again!!!" Miki exclaimed, frowning.

[Yoichi Sugiyama]

"You aren't Fawn" He said as they began walking, Not even answering her questions "You aren't the Fairy Tail Guild Master, Fawn" He said again, Side glancing at her "Riley adopted Fawn, So unless you magically become Fawn, I couldn't care less. If Riley gets pissed at me then she gets pissed at me...I gave you a fair warning to not do it again so you know better then to do it" He stated as they headed for the Sleeping Forest as she had predicted "Rogues are too obvious where they'll hide. They'll hide somewhere inconspicuous like the Tear Desert or Sleeping Forest...If he or she isn't here, We go to Tear Desert, If not here then we go to Lyons Graveyard, If not there then we go to Mount Hakobe"

As he spoke he made no eye contact with the female, Hell, He hadn't made eye contact with her at all yet. His posture very relaxed and titled back some with both hands in his pants pockets. (Similar to the main character from Persona 3)

[miki]

"it makes sense they'll be here though..." Fiora shot back. "Shrouded area, closed space meaning more chance of monsters attacking, more or less the easy ability to get lost and split up." She walked onward before halting. "And mist at the trees? Doesn't that seem at all ominous to you?" She glanced back towards him, her red eyes narrowed to slits before she looked away and walked onward with her hands behind her back. "I'm going in, I don't know about you and to be honest I never said Riley adopted me, I said she is LIKE my big sister. I look up to her like one, she knows everything about me pretty much and she can recognize my creations just from a far away area, it seems logical in one spot or another to say I do look up and respect her like one...." She looked down, before closing her eyes.
"Yoichi, don't take her away from us? She took me and Miki in when nobody else wanted us." With that, she laughed a sort of forget-what-I-just-said laugh and then turned to wait. "Lets go."

[Yoichi Sugiyama]

"Nope" He said in response to her asking if it was ominous with the mist and all. To him, This kind of thing was natural considering what he knew was here in the exact center of the forest, And before she could really continue speaking he had already began walking into it. Not waiting up for her as he entered the forest "Come on slow poke, Or you'll get left behind" His hand gripped the hilt of his Magic Sword as he readied himself, Having on his armor underneath his outfit. Thankfully, his shoes were large enough to wear over his armor so it made it much easier to conceal it, And considering it seemed to make no noise, Hardly anyone would ever notice it was on until they attacked. Irregardless, Once inside the forest he stopped and began looking around, Yawning as he waited for something "He'll come to us" He muttered as he sat down "Two mages all by themselves, Seemingly defenseless....He'll find us for sure, So get ready" He told her.

"Low level Mage, Not a lot of spells in his kit...Should be able to kill him in 5 minutes" He said, Rolling his shoulders a bit as he leaned back against a tree and cracked his neck "So just sit down and relax, Once he comes to us, We'll have him...Draw him away got it?"

[miki]

Placing down her bag, she sat down and sighed. "I'll do that." She murmured before leaning back. She had followed him after they had entered the forest, seeing as he "Knew" where he was going and clearly they were at the place that was at possible of meeting him.
She put her hand into the bag and took out the choker before placing it on and shrinking slightly to reveal a smaller and younger looking version of what was previously Fiora.

The second the transformation was done, Miki instantly facepalmed. She hugged her legs straight after and gazed directly at Yoichi, her wide red eyes filled with fear and she seemed to scuttle backwards slightly away from him. "I'm not her so don't bother." She said meekly, before glancing around the forest. She had been here many times before, missions or otherwise.
Sighing, she sat properly. "Any idea what this person is or looks like? Would be nice to know so I know what to do if the situation gets dangerous..." She trailed off and squealed a little as a bird flew through the sky. Covering her body from neck downwards was still bandages, seeming to protect her body. Letting out an exhale, she stood up. "Mind if I play?" She asked, holding her hands out and summoning a beautiful oak-wood violin. "Just until?"

[Yoichi Sugiyama]

"Go for it" He muttered, His legs crossed over each other and his arms folded together over his chest. His head was facing the ground and his eyes were closed, Seemingly ignoring her previous questions as he himself waited patiently and remained still. 'Listening' to her as she'd no doubtedly begin to play her instrument. Seemingly deep in thought as he still had yet to answer any of her previous questions.

[miki]

As she dragged the bow over the strings of the oak violin, she listened to the music emit from it and hummed softly. The music seemed to flow through the woods and she closed her eyes, her body waving softly side to side. She parted her lips to sing and them closed them again before suddenly she stopped the violin playing and her red eyes snapped to one area.

"Yoichi..." She pointed in one direction, her voice turning into a whisper. "Over there..."

A black body moved between the trees, the stench of death following after it and causing Miki to tilt her head away to hide from the smell.
Suddenly the black body disappeared and slunk through the shadows behind her.
"Beautiful music you had there..." he leaned over and whispered in her ear, black shadowy arms wrapping slowly around her body and causing her to freeze and not move.

The shadows slunk towards Yoichi, attempting to stop him from moving the second that they reached that of his.
"Would be a shame if something happened to."

[Yoichi Sugiyama]

His head didn't move and his eyes didn't open, Even as the figure appeared behind Mizi. It wasn't until he sent the shadows towards him that he acted, His eyes flaring to life as his own dark aura erupted around him, Preventing the shadows from getting to him. "You dare to threaten a Griffin Wing?" His voice rang out in its previous commanding tone that Fiora had heard. His body vanishing from it's spot, Using every ounce of speed he had to move behind the man, His blade already coming down towards him "Never threaten a Griffin Wing!"

His voice was Deep, and strong, Yet it was also very commanding and dominant. Yoichi was going to seize control of this now and retain that control. However, If the man attempted to dodge he'd merely move right after him, Slashing the blade each and everytime at the male from behind.

Mana:
9/10

[miki]

As the man tried to move his arm to summon a shadow beneath Yoichi to halt him, Miki took the opportunity to cast a spell. The violin suddenly had a purple aura emit from it, causing the ground to shake as the deathly music emitted around the area. Zombies pushed the group up - five of them to be exact. Each headed in the direction of the foe, grabbing him and causing him to release Miki.

The second she was free, Miki leaped backwards and carried on playing the music. By this time, the man was unable to move - thus dodge and was slashed at repeatedly. He made the attempt of melding into the shadows, but oddly enough the zombies were starting to wound and injure him. He tried to block at the males attacks with one of the zombies, but the second Yoichi sliced through the zombie it would fade into dust and cause him to bleed. He felt time leaving him, his body was getting colder as he tried to fight but the zombies refused him any access of moving. Warmth fell down his back in a great amount and the pain got too much of him. As his eyes snapped towards Miki, his vision fading, his eyes widened. She was taking a slow deep breath and the violin had stopped playing. He felt the zombies vanish into nothingness and before he could react sound waves hit his ears, causing the eardrums to explode and blood seeped down the side of his ears. He couldn't hear his own screams of pain and lost all balance, just falling to the ground in a big mound of blood, ash and body.

Miki held her breath afterward, covering her mouth and coughing before taking a flask of water from her bag and drinking it. She glanced towards Yoichi, nodding towards him and smiling. "You and Riley are perfect together, Fiora might not think so - but I do." she headed over to the body, examining it.

Mana used 2/10, mana left - 8/10.

[Yoichi Sugiyama]

By the time she had gotten to the body he had already sliced the males head from his shoulders, Pulling out a bag from his jacket and dropping the head into it. "Pathetic" He muttered, His aura fading as he kicked the body over, Tossing the head sack over his shoulder as he turned to leave the forest "Come, Let's go collect our reward" He mumbled to her. When they were out of the forest he smiled at her, Giving her a thumbs up "Believe me, Nothing will touch a Griffin Wing member...And if they do, I'll personally slice there head off" He said this with a bit of glee, His past showing it's ugly head right there, And when he realized this he quickly cleared his throat and looked away and continued walking in silence.
