"Well?" Kujiro waited, and yet instead of receiving Yusake's rebuttal, it was his woman who spoke. His dark eyes shifted to her direction as she walked along the side. Though he did watch her for a time, it was only brief. He quickly reverted back to watching Yusake, rather uninterested in what she had to say. Of course, ever since Yusake's arrival his already lackluster interest in the others around had become mostly inexistent. "Stay the f#$k out of this!" Yusake suddenly shouted, shaking his fist toward Reaper, before returning his own attention to his older brother. "And you!" he pointed the metal made finger straight in Kujiro's direction. "Who the hell do you think you..." but he was quickly interrupted. "...I am your brother, Yusake. I understand you better then any of these peons. I understand you more then even you yourself understand. You do not even fully know or understand the very people closest to you, do you?" his stare seemed no less cold then before, which still unnerved Yusake slightly. Though, he was no less irritated and rather infuriated with this man who claimed to be his older sibling.
"And what the hell is that supposed to mean?!" he shouted at Kujiro. "Take her for example..." he glanced toward Reaper, which of course caused Yusake to look in her direction as well. "...how much do you actually know about her, Yusake? Do you know what she is? What she -really- is? Do you know how old she is? Or perhaps how many men she has been with in her life? Do you know why neither her or the boy she protects look nothing alike? You cannot trust her Yusake, you cannot trust anyone you've associated with. Not the paled freak you befriended as a child, and most certainly not that confounded old merchant you work for!" his face contorted in somewhat of a scowl, probably the most emotion he has shown since appearing. "S-Shut up! Shut the hell up!" Yusake shook his head quickly, shouting at the top of his lungs. "What the hell do you know?! I've been with them, been close to them, I KNOW them! You don't know a thing about me! You come around here now and think I'm gonna listen to you just 'cause you can act tough around everyone? You think I'm gonna take your word for anything?! I dunno what you're sellin' but I'm not buyin'!" he shouted back to Kujiro, pointing straight at him again.
As bad as that line may have been, it was still Yusake's honest words. How could he not trust those closest to him, the very people who have been like the family he himself did not have? "Simple child..." Kujiro muttered under his breath, closing his eyes with a sigh. His eyes quickly opened again, and he spread his arms to either side of him. "Don't you see that you live in ignorance, Yusake?! It is unnecessary that you know so little of the truth, you need not be like the rest of these cretins! You have a gift given to you by the two bloodlines which have created your very being! Mother may have rejected her heritage but father -embraced- it! You are -above- them! Beyond each and every one of them! The Light and the Dark of divine bloodlines that took part in the creation of the Serenian belong to the two of us. You need only to learn, to take in the teachings of our ancestry. To cast ASIDE these creatures!" he had grown louder then before, Kujiro was showing a deeper sense of passion with his words the more he spoke. His hand swept sideways through the air quickly at the word 'aside' to demonstrate through hand gesture his meaning, and just how meaningless those around truly were to him.
Then came a pulse which struck his mind for a brief instant. Kujiro's right eye twitched visibly at the annoyance. He turned toward the man responsible, looking to him. Kujiro did not glare, however...rather, he just stared at him, almost the way one simply stares ahead. "Hmph...how many simple distractions will I have to endure?" he said to himself alone, though. Quite honestly, Tatsu was not worth regarding toward, or speaking to, in his mind. "I've heard enough of this crap!" Yusake's voice erupted in the courtyard, as did the rushing sound of air which came from his most familiar of moves. His right arm was held back, a series of compartments having lifted and opened around it to draw in the air around. At the same time, white threads of flame like energy surged over the metal parts of his body to his arm, swirling up it toward the fist. The well known 'Buster Shot' interrupted any of the talking that would resume. Kujiro's head alone turned as Yusake flew toward him about half a foot or so off of the ground. And as quickly as he began the attack, it ended in a loud boom of an explosion. The dirt and grass surrounding Kujiro flew from all sides as Yusake reached him.
Dust lifted from the ground and rushed out in a thick cloud past Kujiro's position, as well as exploding all around, covering the two for a moment. The dirt began to slowly clear up, the silhouettes of both men appearing close together, one low to the ground in an almost kneeled position, while the other had his hand extended. The figures became more and more visible as the short time passed in silence. Eventually, the dust began to settle, Yusake's metal arm appearing from it as the extended arm. Soon came the rest as well, Kujiro's form appearing as the man low to the ground, his head slightly lowered and both eyes closed. But...then came Yusake's face, and the pained expression in his eyes. When the dust completely cleared, it revealed Kujiro at Yusake's right side. His right hand was against Yusake's stomach. He shook lightly, his metal arm then began to give, slowly falling to its side as Kujiro raised to his feet. "Pathetic..." he spoke in an audible, calm yet cold voice. He removed his hand from Yusake's body, allowing the young man to slowly fall to his knees, then onto his side. Although he was breathing, Yusake was clearly in pain and shock by what had happened, almost not even aware of it. "If you will not understand through words..." he turned to face Reaper.
"...then I will have to show you the necessity of your gift's true potential." his head lifted slightly, eyes growing cold again, fierce. "If I must show you the way through the sacrifice of every last individual in this courtyard..." the loose strands of his hair slowly began to move as if pushed by the air. The same effect began to take place around the loose ends of his clothes, as a very faint distortion formed in the air, and the slight sense of energy emitting from him could be felt. "...then so be it!" Kujiro's eyes suddenly widened. The air directly around him became harsh, distorting in a violent manner. His hair all at once lifted up then dropped, as if a sudden burst of air rushed upward for only a moment. The ground and dirt around him separated outward, creating a ring like cloud of dust that was about knee height to him spread out from his position, the grass being pushed by the same current of air. Before long, he began to move from Yusake toward the others. He wasn't directing his eyes or his path toward anyone specifically, simply in the general direction of Scytheress, those she held back, Reaper, and the others in his way. In his eyes was a different expression then a moment ago. It was not of anger, not of the cold carelessness from before but...of a zealousness, an obsession to accomplish his task.

Kai glared at her and scurried a bit higher into the tree. A loud explosion had distracted him and he climbed up to see better. Sheilding his eyes from the sun, he saw in the distance a man slowly walking towards the other group of people. He scowled, seeing Kaori was still there but then sighed. "She can take care of herself," he muttered to himself. "If she needs help, she'll call to me."
Once that had been confirmed, he glanced back down towards Misa, the blue intensity of his eyes increasing. "Therapy is for idiots who can't handle things themselves," Kai snapped angrily. "I am controlling myself. It's obvious since I haven't killed you yet!" His hands had been grapsing the branch he sat on, knuckles turning white from the pressure of his grip. Then, with a loud crack, the wood splintered in his hands. Kai quickly leapt to a different branch, letting the previous one crash to the ground. He bit a long splinter that had stabbed into his palm and pulled it out, next spitting it aside. "You don't have the right to judge me," he growled, fangs bared. "You don't even know me. It's been less than a day!" His tail thrashed around angrily, thumping loudly against the tree's trunk each time it hit.
