"Anger is a killing thing: it kills the man who angers, for each rage leaves him less than he had been before - it takes something from him."



Goto looked at the door to Oyakata-Sama's room, it shut tightly as a small meeting took place inside. He hadn't seen the Master, the strange girl, or the strange, injured man known as Yasu since the incident this morning.

"What do you think they're talking about?"

Goto glanced over at another of his fellow kakushi, the woman holding a tray as she too, stared at the closed door.

"I don't know, I wish I could say I didn't care, but to be honest..." Goto groaned, huffing slightly, "I'm pretty damn curious, especially after seeing that guys wound this morning? I have no clue how he survived."

"It seems weird." The woman's eyebrows arched up slight as she turned, beginning to shy away from both Goto and the closed door, their voices hushed, "But I feel like it's better if we don't find out."

Without another word Goto watched as the other Kakushi walked away, off to do her daily tasks as Goto sighed,

"Ugh."

Yasu kneeled in the corner behind his Master silently, eyes shifting between the floor and the young girl he served. He hadn't seen her in so long, even before she had been summoned to the physical realm to serve the demon slayer corps. Words were strung around, blowing in the wind between the reapers whenever they passed each other,


"The Master! She's been kidnapped!"

"There ain't no need to worry about the lass." One rolled his eyes as he and Yasu watched two humans jump to their deaths each other, awaiting to collect their souls. "Girl may look unaged, but she's a bargaining bastard. Can handle herself I tell you."

"Ты не в том месте, неудачник. Возвращайся в Японию." Well, Yasu had tried to listen to that one but then realized that he couldn't speak Russian...wait, why had he been in Russia again?


Sanemi and Kocho sat behind their own Master, Oykata-Sama, insisting on joining the meeting after seeing the wound that Yasu had bore, wanting to know what on Earth could even cause that. However, though they didn't say it, it was obvious they were more alert. Not only was it just Death herself, but now one of her reapers. Though they didn't dare to say or admit to them, or even themselves, that they believed this young girl's story on her identity; they still didn't want to leave their master alone with her.
