Kagero was walking with Zushi back to Wings place. They had spent the elevator ride in silence, but Kagero was actually thinking to herself. She had to think of an excuse to talk to Wing while in reality she was just worried about Zushi. Those creeps from earlier gave them some freaky looks and that brought on her suspicions since they declined their challenge. They would most likely resort to dirty tactics, like stalking children... those pedo's.

She also swore that she saw one out of the corner of her eye after leaving the elevator. The creepy one, well, they're all creepy but the creepy one with the light hair and narrow beady eyes. She didn't like the feeling she was getting.

She continued musing and looking around for any suspicious figures. Though they would definitely be in Zetsu, she wasn't advanced enough to detect someone using it yet.

She was broken out of her track of thought when Zushi was about to turn and take a shortcut through an ally. She grabbed his shoulder, scaring him from the sudden action.

"Hey, Zushi?"

"Yeah, Kagero?"

"We should go another way. You know... through a more populated area." She tried to hint out that something was wrong without alerting the people who were stalking them off.

"We should be fine, I go this way all the time!" He assured her.

"Hrm..." Kagero was unsure, but they wouldn't attack him with a witness... would they? She sighed, "Have it your way then." She pouted, but looked around as they entered the ally way. She was ready to act at any moment.

About half way in, Kagero felt a shiver go down her spine as she felt a presence appear behind them. Their Zetsu must have faltered. She whirred around to see Sadaso using some Nen ability. It looked like a hand, coming from his missing arm. She tried to tackle Zushi to the ground, but the aura was already around him. She stopped mid-motion, she didn't want to get caught in it too.

She growled, bangs shadowing her face, "I knew it." She glared at him, her eyes glowing different colours from the activation of her Nen. She leaked out some killing intent. "If you wanna' fight, I'll give you a fight."

"Oh?" Sadaso laughed creepily, and let Zushi go from his aura arm, though it was too late and Zushi had already passed out.

She caught Zushi before he hit his head against the wall and sat him down against it. "I'll even fight your buddies over there." She tilted her head back and glanced behind her, referring to the two others in hiding. They came out of the shadows, as there was no point in hiding anymore. Kagero hadn't noticed them, but it was worth a guess since they were obviously working together, though she would have looked really stupid if they weren't actually there.

Gido chuckled. "If you want your friend to be safe, you'll have to fight all three of us."

Kagero huffed, "I've already assumed that, baka." The three of them got an irk mark.

That's when a familiar voice came in. "Forget it."

Sadaso turned around, scared by the sudden new voice.

Killua came out from around of the corner. "I figured you were up to something. But you don't need dirty tricks to make me fight... you." He looked confused when he noticed Kagero leaning against the wall. "Wha-"

"Yo! You're just a wee bit late to the party laddie." She said jokingly. "I've already got this handled, but backup's a nice thing to have, ya know?" She grinned to Killua.

"You're going to fight them?" He assumed by Sadaso's, Gido's and Riehlvelt's satisfied faces.

"Yup!"
