"You're so cruel, little sister…" Scowling, Ingram glares at Ava whose brow remains furrowed as their blades lock with one another, sparks spewing out joining the raindrops descending down from the high heavens. The two use their collided blades to propel themselves back from one another. Her brother slams his blade into the lush greener below while she lays her hand flat on the green undeterred by the water below, feeling the sharp sting of the puddles splash against her.
"I'm not the one leading near kinshin's to souls." Curtly, Ava snaps easily recovering from her stance, pushing herself up from the floor.
"I was bored besides I wanted to see what these knocks offs failed to capture clearly they pale in comparison to a weapon like me." Arrogantly, he declares as he pries his blade from the ground below.
"And you wonder why no one likes you?" Huffing, Ava waves the slick substance of the water off her hands.
"I like me that's all that matters." Proudly, he places his hand to his hip.
"I'm sure that's all you need in life." Dryly, Ava remarks.
"Self-love is just as important." Ingram winks at Ava whose eye twitches.
"I am not taking a mental health lesson from a deranged lunatic!" Angrily, Ava snaps at the man manically cackling as they dive at one another, the static spewing out of her fingertips as he avoids her soul force, the fight continuing onwards.
"You're powerless. What's the matter Tsubaki? I know you didn't come to visit so why aren't you attacking? You're just like your namesake the Camila blossom." Scowling, Masamune sneers as she charges at him only to cry out. He swiftly grabs hold of her face, slamming him down into the ruby red lake below, shoving her into it watching her scream, bubbles bursting to the surface.
"A flower without fragrance…it proclaims nothing but blooms then silence. When your petals scatter it is quietly tragic, such a boring flower. Do you know what I think? I think if this was the outside world you'd be dead by now. What's the matter? Your soul's trembling. What do you fear? Is it death?" Mockingly, Masamune sneers scowling at his sister once prying her from the ruby red floor.
"I may die today but I will stop you." Determined, Tsubaki declares.
"Don't look at me stop it! Those eyes it was you, you were the one who led me here. You brought me to the path of the enchanted sword." Pained, Tsubaki winces, slamming his hand down on his face, pained when his purple hues meet her own softly sighing, pained.
"Get out! Get out!" Wailing, the townsfolk screech, screaming at Blackstar, slamming down the wooden instruments upon him, bloodied blue locks dangle down his head but he remains strong, firm in his sitting stance.
"You monster!" The people crowding around Blackstar bellow.
"Heheheh! Blackstar is showing more restraint with those two than I thought possible for him." Impressed, Death chuckles when watching the mirror show Blackstar being beaten black and blue but he remains firm in his sitting stance.
"I can't believe Tsubaki and the sword are brother and sister." Mystified, Maka whispers watching on with the others.
"But Blackstar still has no idea about it does he?" Scowling, Soul furrows his brow his hands shoved into his pockets.
"He trusts her and for now that's all he needs to know." Death tells the two.
"Where's Ava?! Shouldn't she stop this!?" Baffled, Maka argues furrowing her brow at the lost sight.
"Seems she's busy." Death decides.
"Too busy to help Blackstar!?" Baffled, Maka frowns.
"Or perhaps testing her?" Stein offers furrowing his brow at the thought.
"Either way, I trust Ava I know her just as I know she would have good reason to not help Blackstar out." Death exclaims making the others furrow their brow at his words.
"Tsubaki isn't moving are you sure she's alright? What's she doing in there anyway?" Anxiously, Maka wonders.
"Hmm…well you see it's like this…hm?" Humming, Death attempts to explain only then to note the sharp shine of the mirror reflecting Stein munching on his food.
"We brought snacks everybody!" Happily, the Thompson twins return, bottles and lunches in their hands.
"Snacks at a time like this!? What were you two thinking!?" Furious, Maka yells at the two gushing over Kid, offering said stuff to Kid.
"Let's see how should I put this? To describe it simply Tsubaki is engaged in a sort of soul tug of war with the enchant sword Masamune as her brother makes his move to possess her soul. Tsubaki is countering by trying to absorb his. The struggle will continue until one soul defeats the other and wins." Stein sighs attempting to explain it.
"Tsubaki is using his own technique against him nice. But do you think she has any chance of winning?" Impressed, Kid wonders munching on his sandwich.
"It will be difficult for her. It's the sword's soul so he has home-court advantage and soul possession is one of his trademark techniques. Yeah, all together the chance of Tsubaki will win is low." Honestly, Stein tells the kids.
"Is that why you sent mother?" Kid's yellow narrow at his father's back.
"What do you mean kid?" Confused, Maka questions him noting Kid's sharp golden glare.
"So if anything went wrong…" Soul furrows his brow catching on trailing off.
"Ava will interfere if she deems it necessary." Death confirms.
"And now isn't the time?" Mad, Maka scowls.
"She's trusting those two to do it." Death tells her.
"Brother and sister fighting! Locked in a fight to the death! I can't even imagine it I couldn't go on living without you Patty!" Wailing, Liz cries out to the high heavens, sobbing as she wraps her arms around her younger sister Patty.
"There, there." Sighing, Patty pats her sister's back, sighing at her sobbing sister.
"A person who chooses the path of a kishin reveals his own weakness. The original kishin sought power to escape the fear of death. Why has Tsubaki's brother chosen this path of power? What does he seek to gain by becoming a kishin?" Curious, Stein ponders out loud.
"You have so many other options… you could use your smoke bomb or shuriken but you stick with your plain old kasawgama. Why are you holding back? Pity!? Do you pity me!?" Masamune demands from his sister as she charges at him once more, striking at him with said weapon he openly mocks as he simply grabs the chain tugging her towards him.
"Tsubaki and Masamune both come from the Nakatsukasa family their clan posses special weapon abilities that is handed down throughout the generations. The previous generations' abilities should have been passed down to Masamune as he was their eldest son but instead…" Stein sighs as he attempts to explain the situation to his students.
"You inherited everything that should have gone to me by birthright. I inherited only one thing this sword." Miserably, Masamune confesses.
"For some reason this power was given to Tsubaki." Stein tells the children.
"As a child I was treated more delicately than other boys. I was babied for so long. I got whatever I asked for but I never realized it was because I was inferior. In the end, the one who showed me that sad truth was you. The pity in your eyes that's how you looked at me when we were children. When you hid your own emotions because you thought you were the strong one. I'll never forgive you for that. Tsubaki dear sister…I'm going to kill you. I will become a kishin and then…I will master this sword. Puppet rain…" Determined, Masamune declares as shadow sprouts out of his back slamming down on Tsubaki, coiling around her form.
"ARGHH! Blackstar…" Weakly, Tsubaki whimpers as she is lifted up high hanging in the air, coal-black tendrils coiled around her neck as she cries crying out to the high heavens.
"Who's this woman? She's been sitting there for a long time now. You're with him, aren't you? Well, you can get out of our village too!" One of the kids wanders over to the slumped figure of Tsubaki, about to raise their bloodied bat but…
"Listen you little brat. Don't even think about interrupting Tsubaki again or else I'll kill you! You got me!? Just sit there and keep your mouth shut." Scowling, Blackstar grabs the boy's bat, fibres and pieces of wooden spiralling spewing out of the weapon, startling the boy when with one hand he breaks the bat the boy had.
"Oh yeah well screw you Star clan!" Tearfully, the boy flees frightened by Blackstar.
"Do you have any last words before I kill you?" Masamune questions her.
"…" Wincing, she whimpers, hurt.
"You truly are a pathetic Camila blossom aren't you? Nothing to say." Disappointed, Masamune sighs shaking his head at her, clear disappointment upon his facial features, ready to end this once and for all.
"Hey Tsubaki what are you feeling like playing today?" Innocently, a younger Masamune questions as he wears his yukata in their home garden, helping his little sister put on her sandals as they go out to play.
"Whatever you want too." The young Tsubaki smiles.
"Come on Tsubaki we always play my game what do you want to play?" Sighing, Masamune reminds her.
"I wanna play ball!" Tsubaki bows her head, a brief pained pause filtering through the air only then for her to smile strained as she answers it.
"And now Tsubaki your soul…belongs to me." Masamune coldly dictates, reeling his sword back to impale into her chest, crimson gushing out staining her shirt.
"I have no need for such a purpose." Aloofly, Ava declares as she swings her blade bowing briefly to slam her elbow into his torso making him hack, crimson coughing out of his cracked lips, black blood spewing out.
"Ah yes too busy letting children do your dirty work. Child soldiers seems you're picking up the family trade." Ingram sneers as she swiftly dives out of the way of the needle-like implements from the black blood, striking at it but she dodges out of the way.
"That isn't…!" Seething, Ava winces when feeling the sharp sting on her arm, scowling at the needle, prying it off her arm, hissing at the wound, seeing ruby red oozing out of the hole in her arm.
"Tell me I'm wrong then? While you were sleeping that hubby of yours has been quite busy has he not?" Ingram smirks flicking his wrist, dagger feathers spewing out of his arm.
"Don't." Fed up, she slams the back of her blade against the feathers, deflecting them, glaring at him.
"So I can answer your questions but you won't answer mine that's a bit rude sister don't you think?" Teasingly, he places his hand on his hip.
"You are no brother of mine. The past is in the past." Strictly, she snaps at Ingram, raising her foot kicking him away.
"You forget yourself when you speak to me…little sister." Smugly, he places his foot flat on the tree, falling down, landing smirking at her.
"Watch closely this time okay?" The young Masamune tells Tsubaki as he kicks the ruby red ball with his sandalled foot.
"Kay!" Tsubaki nods her head watching him.
"See…" He then kicks the ruby red ball at her but…
"Uh!" Clumsily, Tsubaki gasps falling flat to the ground, tripping as the ball tumbles away rolling to the side.
"Did you really want to play ball Tsubaki?" Masamune furrows his brow when watching her bow down, picking up the ball before the bush of camellia's blooming behind her.
"Yes!" Tightly, she smiles nodding her head at her brother.
"But I didn't. what I really wanted to do was play house. I wonder how long we could have played together if I had been able to tell him that? I am Tsubaki a flower without fragrance and when I fall…it will be silent and tragic."
"What are you feeling right now little sister? Do you still look down on me? It must be nice to have such a sense of superiority over others. You just stand there quiet and smug. Taking care of everyone else cause you're the strong one. How can you deny it? That's who you've always been." Startled, Tsubaki blinks baffled when after the fluttering flower descends down to the ground its swiftly picked up by a beaming Blackstar admiring the ruby red petals of the flower.
"Tell me…why did you let her?" Scowling, Ava demands from her brother, after she slams her palm at the back of his head, throwing him to the ground into the greenery below watching on scowling as he places his hand flat on the ground.
"Hm?" Unfazed, he shakily stands, spitting the dirt out of his mouth.
"You let her modify your body, the black blood…why?" Scowling, she demands from him.
"To evolve sister dearest those fools wishing to be kishin forget themselves. They think of us as nothing more than shards, than rumours, than legends I will prove to them we are real, we are a threat, we are not dead as they would have wanted." Proudly, he proclaims to the high heavens, darting up to the high heavens, raising his blade at her.
"Over my dead body will I let you do this…" Scowling, she dictates deflecting said blow before him pushing him back down to the ground.
"You don't even know what I'm doing." Huffing, he argues slamming his heel against the grass, steading said blow.
"Are you truly so ashamed of what we did? We defended those that had no heroes, no hope, no one to fight in their corner." Proudly, he declares dedication laced in his tone.
"We were nothing but tools of madness!" Pained, she cries out hurt as she descends down, slamming her blade down on his.
"We are tools of self defence! Tell me does this scene bring back any memories? Any deva vu…?" Mockingly, he sneers at her looking up at her, his golds gazing into her golden glare as the flat of his blade clashes against her sharp blade.
"Enough talk." Fed up, she snaps as he swings said blade, pushing her off.
"Fine by me." Chuckling, he grins from ear to ear as he struts over to her while she slowly stands, ready for whatever is to come.
"You're wrong. You're wrong! You're wrong! You're wrong! You're wrong! I won't take care of you anymore! That's over! I'm going to stop you! Please feel in your soul how serious I am. I'm begging you." Determined, Tsubaki roars screaming at her brother baffling him when she startles him as she pries his shadow blade off him, jolting back chains in hand, ready for anything…
"You don't stand a chance. No matter how brave you pretend to be you're still a pathetic flower with no voice nor fragrance." Dedicated, Masamune dictates.
"You're wrong. I won't let you call me a pathetic flower I have a friend who helped me realize something. He helped me see, that a Camilla does have a fragrance!" Resolved, Tsubaki declares darting over him, ready to end this once and for all.
"Tch this is a waste of time you'll see soon enough, you'll remember. You've strayed sister but I promise I'll bring you both back on the right path. I will save you both." Earnestly, Ingram proclaims making Ava furrow her brow scowling at the fleeting figure of her brother diving up high into the sky, small stray feathers of pitch black descend down, one small stray strand brushing against her cheek as she watches him flee from sight." Determined, Ingram explains to her as he bows before her, trying to trip her but she leaps up, dodging said strike.
"Tsubaki! She's going inside the enchanted sword no that can't be right…did he beat Tsubaki? Does that mean its over?" Worried, Blackstar leans over to the sword.
"Tsubaki! I won't watch this! It can't be real!" Maka cries out no longer being able to take it.
"Old dude, give me that stick! Hey Tsubaki come out of there already! You haven't lose to him have you? Come on Tsubaki you can do a better show than that come back on stage, encore! Encore! Give us an encore!" Pleadingly, Blackstar begs after stealing said stick from the old man prodding the black blade.
"At least you've finally shown me what you're feelings really are. I thought the Camilla blossom was a boring flower. One without any fragrance. But I was wrong wasn't I? As soon as I touched your soul I realized that." Sadly, Masamune whispers pained as he stares at his blade impaled into his sister's chest as his body fades, the world of white and shadows fading into a beautiful ocean sky as he smiles sadly at her.
"Masamune…" Woefully, Tsubaki whispers hurt, tears threatening to fall.
"It's a nice fragrance." Fondly, he smiles looking up at the soaring sky closing his eyes at peace as his body fades.
"Brother…" Tearful, Tsubaki whimpers when his body fades revealing a ruby red soul, slowly going towards her as she wraps her arms around her brother's soul, accepting it, hugging it as the tears flow freely…
"How disappointing. I had such high hopes for the boy." Tutting, Ingram pouts watching Blackstar prod the blade.
"For the kishin." Sharply, she snaps.
"Is that what you tell yourself?" Curious, he quirks his head to the side.
"A cold comfort…" Pained, Ava glances to the side.
"Tell yourself what you want. That boy is gone now." Frankly, Ingram tells her how it is.
"The kishin is." Coldly, Ava asserts.
"You keep calling him that. If it helps you sleep at night." Ingram turns his back to her.
"I don't need you to tell me what to do." Sharply, she snaps earning a small chuckle to his lips astonishing Ava.
"A sister having to save her brother tell me do you think you can save me?" Amused, he asks her, a low hollow chuckle escaping his lips.
"…Who's to say you deserve to be saved?" Scowling, Ava exclaims bringing a tight smile to his lips.
"Goodbye sister…" Softly, Ingram whispers slouching his shoulders, bowing his head before dropping down, turning into the fleeting figure of the bird. She closes her eyes feeling his feathers brush against her cheek, wiping away the stray tear threatening to fall as she does the same.
"Encore! Encore! Encore! Encore dammit!" Pained, Blackstar bellows, hurt laced in his tone, sniffling, his voice threatens to crack as he had grabbed the old man's bloodied bat of wood, prodding the black blade, begging, pleading for this encore. Stunned, the villager's gawk, gaping at the so called cold blooded killer, stunned to see someone they feared to be so vulnerable, so fragile, so weak when pleading, begging, beseeching their partner for this so called encore. One of the kids still bitter raise their bloodied battered weapon to Blackstar, stray strands of wood sticking out of it only to gasp when a calm firm hand clasps around the beam. A ruby red river gushes down the palm, descending down as the boy gasps when its brown meet a pair of icy yellow, swiftly tossing the blunt instrument away as she turns to the begging boy, ignoring the eyes upon them.
"Blackstar…" Attentively, Ava places her hand on Blackstar's shoulder making him turn.
"Miss Ava? Tsubaki…she…she…" Sniffling, Blackstar whimpers making Ava's yellows soften sadly at the boy before him.
"She's alright…" Softly, Ava assures Blackstar smiling down at him.
"But she went into the sword that…" He begins confused worry laced in his tone.
"It's all right." Resolute, she promises him.
"Huh? You mean it?" Hopeful, he smiles up at her.
"I do. Just watch…" Confidently, she nods her head as the two turn back to the blade just as they do a familiar yellow smokescreen pours out of the blade before them just as Ava removes her hand from Blackstar's. Smirking, she watches on as the heavy smoke fades revealing Tsubaki smiling shyly at Blackstar.
"See I came back." Tenderly, Tsubaki smiles at Blackstar.
"Told you…" Smirking, Ava places her hand behind her back.
"I just had to pay a visit to my brother." Tentatively, Tsubaki reveals shyly smiling sadly, bowing her head.
"You did huh? Welcome back! Are you alright?" Blackstar asks her.
"I'm fine." Softly, Tsubaki smiles at Blackstar as Ava watches on.
"Are you really sure you're okay?" Blackstar repeats the question, furrowing his brow sceptical.
"Yes I promise I'm okay." Tsubaki assures Blackstar only making Ava furrow her brow.
"Alright then come here come over here! Blackstar's gonna give you a big old hug!" Blackstar proclaims, stretching his arms out as a pregnant pause filters in the air the still silence being too much for Tsubaki who hiccups, bursting into tears, the tears finally freely falling from her as she rushes over to his side, wrapping her arms around him.
"I'm sorry! Look at you Blackstar you're all covered in blood! Are you alright?" Horrified, Tsubaki cries to the high heavens. Ava watches on as the taller girl crumbles down to her knees, whimpering.
"Never mind about me Tsubaki I'm fine!" Blackstar assures her patting her coal black locks only then for all their eyes to widen when next thing the three knew, one of the kids from the village whack Blackstar at the back of his head.
"That's it you little…" Seething, Blackstar yells, raising his fist and…
"Sonny!" Mortified, the mother cries out as the kid is punched into the high air.
"Well there goes so called redemption for the Star clan…" Sighing, Ava sweat drops at the now furious villagers.
"Ryuko…" Worried, one of the women who have Ryuko on her lap calls out to the boy stirring slightly.
"Kid still alive then? That's good news." Blackstar smirks.
"The star clan are all monsters!" The elderly man roars as the others glare at Blackstar.
"This coming from the group wielding weapons and beating up a lone child while he did nothing." Fed up, Ava points out making them falter from her words.
"W-Well…" Shakily, the elderly man exclaims.
"How about you take a good look at yourself before judging others?" Icily, Ava snaps scowling at them as the townsfolk freeze from his words, genuine fear shaking them to their core almost.
"Right then, come on you two let's go." Ava sighs shrugging her shoulders turning her back to the villagers.
"Y-Yes!" Tsubaki nods her head, following after Ava, Blackstar on the other hand…
"WHO WANNA COME BACK HERE ANYWAY BWAHH!" Blackstar bellows patting his butt at them.
"Oh you got to be…" Aggravated, Ava groans, craning her neck back when hearing the crowd roar screeching enraged.
"GET OUT OF HERE!" They swiftly begin throwing stuff at them.
"Blackstar you son of a-" Angrily, Ava snarls snapping at Blackstar narrowly missing a small scrape of glass thrown her way.
"I'm sorry about him once you get to know him he's not that bad really!" Tsubaki tries to defend Blackstar.
"Why did I get stuck with you two?" Whining, Ava groans bowing her head releasing a small shy squeak of shock at another close call of objects thrown her way.
"Even if he wasn't a member of the star clan I still wouldn't like that guy…" Ryuko remarks, a faint fondness in his tone watching the fleeting trio escape, heading back to the academy.
"Miss Ava…" Tentatively, Tsubaki calls out to Ava as she turns to the girl while Blackstar goes on ahead of the two trail behind him.
"Hm?" Ava hums adjusting the collar of her coal cloak.
"I want to thank you again. For coming with us I mean." Meekly, Tsubaki confesses bowing her head to Ava.
"I did nothing you did it all Tsubaki." Tenderly, Ava places her hand on Tsubaki's shoulder making the girl smile softly down at the woman but then it falters to one of worry.
"But you fought that man…" Worriedly, Tsubaki bows her head staring down at her fidgeting fingertips alarming Ava.
"So you saw…" Ava furrows her brow scowling making Tsubaki flinch from her sharp scowl.
"I'm sorry." Scared, she whispers bowing her head, fearful of getting on the wrong side of lady Death.
"It's fine." Softly, Ava assures Tsubaki.
"Are you sure you're all right?" Concerned, Tsubaki questions her teacher.
"I'm breathing aren't I?" Playfully, Ava argues chuckling, shrugging sheepish despite Tsubaki's look of concern.
"But…" Unconvinced, Tsubaki shuffles slightly staring down at her feet making Ava sigh.
"Look kid could you…keep quiet about it for now?" Hopeful, Ava asks placing her hand on Tsubaki's shoulder placing her forefinger upon her lips confusing Tsubaki.
"How do you know that man though?" Tsubaki questions her teacher confused while Blackstar had been fighting she had seen the shadows, she had sensed something was wrong and well…
"You know Tsubaki I'm impressed." Surprised, Tsubaki jolts back from Ava's words.
"Impressed?" Perplexed, Tsubaki quirks her head to the side.
"You did something most couldn't do. Most people I know would run, it's their problem not yours you know?" Cheekily, she winks smirking smugly at Tsubaki, a strained smile upon her lips.
"I…I don't understand." Tsubaki glances to the side still lost, still perplexed, still baffled by it all.
"Hey guys welcome back!" Happily, the trio are greeted by the others as they enter the Death Room.
"Thanks what did we miss?" Curious, Blackstar questions as the two catch up looking up at the others on the platform.
"I'm sorry we made you all worry." Apologetic, Tsubaki bows her head, stuttering, stammering.
"You're going to break your back one of these days Tsubaki." Sighing, Ava slumps her shoulders exasperated by the girl's habit.
"S-Sorry!" Stammering, she sputters out making Ava shake her head.
"Stop apologising already jeez…" Tiredly, Ava groans bowing her head watching on as both Tsubaki and Blackstar make their way up the stone steps meeting up with their friend as she watches on softly smiling.
"Hey, hey good work you three!" Happily, Death greets the trio.
"Yeah you guys were amazing out there!" Maka smiles at them.
"And you finally bagged a soul huh." Soul smirks at Blackstar the two fist bumping.
"And the problem child finally redeems himself." Amused, Kid smirks approaching Blackstar.
"It sure took you long enough though." Soul points out.
"I've always been a bit ahead of my time." Boastfully, Blackstar declares.
"You did it Tsubaki!" Maka smiles as she rushes over to her side.
"That little baby cried you know!" Liz drapes her arm over Tsubaki pointing towards Patty.
"Nu uh that was you sis!" Quickly, Patty argues as Ava chuckles, smirking, making her up to the adult's side, to Death's side, looking up at him.
"Welcome back." Death greets her.
"Told you I'd be back." Smirking, she points out making him smile down at her.
"You know Lord Death, Ava I think I underestimated what those kids were capable of there's not so bad." Stein smirks his hands shoved into his pockets amused at the sight of the girls and boys conversing, gossiping and such.
"You try saying that when you're being run out of town thanks to a certain hot head." Grumpily, she sighs sweat dropping at the memory, a faint hint of bitterness in her tired tone.
"They are still young after all they've got plenty of growing up left to do." Death reminds Stein watching on with a fond smile with the other two adults as the kids converse, chat, chuckle amongst themselves.
"ATTENTION!" Blackstar bellows startling the others who turn to see Blackstar perched upon the top of the mirror.
"How did he…?" Ava begins, her brow furrowed befuddled.
"I hope you're all ready cause you're about to see something incredibly awesome!" Animatedly, Blackstar bellows.
"Oh this should be good." Together, both Kid and Soul chorus bringing a small smile to Ava's lips at the endearing sight.
"Huuh?" Death blurts out surprised to see Blackstar on his mirror.
"Death Sweetie I think you should take a few steps back…" Concerned, Ava advises her husband, worry laced in her tone.
"K listen to this thanks to that soul Tsubaki bagged Tsubaki got a brand-new mode!" Merrily, Blackstar announces.
"Why did I tell them that?" Annoyed, Ava scolds herself groaning, earning a confused concerned eh from her husband by her side as she cranes her neck back, a part of Ava hating herself for having told them this.
"Let's show them Tsubaki!" Blackstar calls out to her.
"Right!" Tsubaki rushes over to his side swiftly transforming into…
"Enchanted sword mode let's go!" Blackstar bellows as Tsubaki changes into said sword, focusing only for him to fall flat to the ground groaning, swirls in his eyes.
"I warned him…" Tutting, Ava shakes her head at the lost cause.
"Blackstar!" Concerned, Tsubaki shifts back into her normal form, helping him.
"This settles it I was born way too soon. The times are never able to keep up with me." Groaning, Blackstar groans, falling flat to the ground as she holds him, holding a paper fan in her hand, fanning him, trying to help him through it all.
"Then we'll wait for them together…" Tenderly, Tsubaki whispers staring down at him, softly smiling.
Softly, Ava smiles at the endearing sight before her, grimacing as she releases a small curt breath bemused only then to grimace at the sharp stinging sensation on her throat. Gingerly, her fingertips brush against her neck making her wince as she feels a sharp sting to her lips. She places her hand over her mouth, coughing slightly. Slowly, she removes her hand from her mouth, her yellows widening when seeing the black blood smearing upon her pale palm not noting a pair of green gawking down at her hand which she swiftly hides, smiling wiping the blood aside as she watches the scene play out.
