Uzui decided to figure out their true intentions all by himself. The mansion that they are stationed is not that far, he could go and check what they're doing. Uzui wanted to make sure that the voyagers don't plan something wicked behind their backs.
The ones that he didn't trust and the ones he's keeping an eye out the most is probably the man wearing pink-feathered coat. He's the most vicious one that he'd seen so far. But he's not here. He got his own place to doze off.
He is set to investigate and dig for information about the Voyagers which is a group of complete mystery. Wearing a stealthy outfit suitable for covert operation, he set his path towards their mansion. Jumping from a rooftop to a rooftop.
Voyager's Mansion
He had arrived, landed in the rooftop of the mansion. He tried his best to make as less noise as he could. He did not want to alarm the resident of the mansion. If he did, chance of running away would be low.
It's going to cause a lot of trouble as it could compromise the relationship between both side. It's risky. It could cause a spark on both side as the Voyagers would believe that the Corps did not trust them.
It's going to ruin their alliance, causing distrust with both sides. Truth to be told, Uzui didn't calculate the risks before going on this mission. Eh, fuck it. He thought. He's just going to floor it.
Uzui found an opening between the roof and the ceiling. There's a space that's perfect for him to spy on them. He peep through a hole. He could see them all the way from up here. It makes his job easier.
The only ones left are the doctor, who just came back from Butterfly Mansion. He looks very tired from the looks of it. He must've worked hard. Even though the doctor looks tired, he is still wide awake and reading a book.
The doctor is the one that he is curious the most. The abilities that he displayed earlier is groundbreaking. He created a sphere and teleported the wooden box carrying Nezuko earlier from within Sanemi's grasp within his hands.
How did he even did that? He's no demon, so how can he do that? Most importantly, did the sphere that he created has any connections to his ability? Then he need to avoid getting inside Law's room. The question is, how big can the sphere goes.
There's also the cook, who arrived in the evening. He already fast asleep in his room. Nothing interesting about him, other than his weird twisted eyebrows. If he weren't mistaken, this guys is Ronin's partner, Black Leg.
Uzui think that he's missing one thing. The wicked Joker is not here, Law is reading and Black Leg is sleeping like a log. Ronin is on his way here and he said that he's going to arrive tomorrow. Then, where's another one?
If he weren't mistaken, there should be another one. Back when they all first meet, there's a man who ambushed Sanemi. He disguised as one of the Kakushi in order to get us. he chose ethe perfect disguise.
The man's name is Brook, is he's not mistaken. The man also had a distinct laugh that made him different than the others. The thing that made Uzui thought was back in their first encounter. Law told Brook "Don't forget your body"
What does that mean? Uzui stroke his chin. Since then, he didn't heard about the man anymore. Its like he disappeared like a ghost. The lights in Law's room turned off. He finished reading his book and went to sleep.
Uzui crawled out from his hiding spot, walking down the hallways. He grimaced. There's nothing suspicious at all. There's nothing interesting to pointed out too. But that doesn't mean nothing. They might not plan anything today. He'll check when he get sometime.
He's a bit disappointed that there's nothing he could find. He can't believe he wasted his time for such a risky mission with little to no benefit. He could be a bit of a moron himself. But he would never admit it.
Eh? Leaving already?
He is prepared to leave, but suddenly he could hear a voice. The Sound Hashira turned around. There's nothing behind him. He could swear that he could hear a voice. It can't be a demon, then what is it.
I thought you were going to stay here longer.
The voice sounded disappointed. Uzui is on his guard. He pulls out his swords out from his sheath. He took on a stance and scan the nearby environment, to avoid being ambushed. Where did it came from?!
Spying on people is bad you know?
It seems that the voice took notice on what Uzui is doing earlier. The voice scolded Uzui for such actions. Meanwhile Uzui is focusing his senses so he could detect where did the voice came from before.
Well, what are you doing here?
The voice interrogated Uzui. It wanted to know Uzui's intention on taking a step into this mansion. Uzui didn't answer. In fact, he is smiling.
"C'mon, I can't tell you that. What about you, then? Hiding amongst shadows, nowhere to be seen. Show yourself if you really a man!" Uzui challenges the voice to come out and face him like a real man.
Very well then, prepare yourself!
*Klak*
*Klak*
*Klak*
Uzui could hear the sound of a footstep. The sounds of wooden sandal clicking every time the owner of the voice took a step. Although Uzui is a bit weirded out by that. Who wears sandal inside the house.
"Weren't you supposed not to wear sandals inside the house?" Uzui asked the voice. In Asian household, sandals or shoes aren't supposed to be wear inside the house. It'll only dirty the floor in their perspective.
Ah, shit. I forgot about that.
The voice just realized.
Wait for a minute, okay?
The voice plead Uzui to wait for him for a while.
"Take your time!" Uzui told the voice to take his time taking his sandals off.
*Rustle*
*Rustle*
Prepare yourself!
~Yo-ho-ho-ho, Yo-ho-ho-ho~
The voice started to hum a song. Then, Uzui could see a big shadow from the hallways at the end. The shadows is as tall as the ceiling. Indeed, there's a demon here. Uzui thought.
*Fwoosh!*
One by one, the lights on the hallways extinguish themselves slowly until at the end of the hallways. The figure decided to reveal himself. It was Brook.
Uzui seems to be in disbelief and shocked at what he's seeing. A tall, skeleton figure is walking towards him slowly. It has an attire of a ghost. Brook slowly walk towards Uzui in a proper manner with both of his arms on his back.
Uzui gulped down his saliva. He gets excited as adrenaline fills un his body. He feels excited and scared at the same time. His forehead is sweating so hard. Yet, he could still smile.
"Yo-ho-ho-ho, Yo-ho-ho-ho-~"
