They teleported to somewhere else where, luckily, there was no sight of any demons. Aki crashed into a rock headfirst from teleporting while Echo stumbled toward to her knees.

"Hah. Teleporting noobs," Galaxy smirked, remaining steadily on her feet with Yukine.

"What the hell was that?!!" Echo yelled, turning back to Yukine in anger.

"I don't like confrontation...." Yukine mumbled shyly, diverting his gaze as Echo got to her feet.

"It's a good bloody job. Up against so many demons, we coulda got a real beating," Aki mentioned.

"Says the guy that got into a fight in the first place!!" Echo argued.

"They weren't as pissed by then," Aki justified.

"Any reason you couldn't of just teleported us somewhere else, Yukine?" Echo asked.

"Well, I can only teleport to and from worlds... I don't know much of specific teleporting as she seem to," Yukine muttered, turning to Galaxy.

"Hehe! I be the best at teleporting!!! It's MY thing, not yours!!" Galaxy proudly declared, hands on her hips.

"THEN WHY DIDN'T YOU TELEPORT US SOONER INSTEAD OF CAUSING A SCENE, YOU IDIOT?!" Echo raged, aura burning with fury.

"I was just playing~" Galaxy claimed, unphased by Echo's heated aura.

"You triggered them into attacking you!!" Echo argued.

"Because she knew she deserved it," Aki interrupted, arms crossed with his body facing away from the group.

Everyone paused, unsure what he meant. Galaxy narrowed her gaze at him disapprovingly.

"What? You gonna tell me I'm wrong when I say you wanted the damage?" Aki mentioned, walking towards her.

Galaxy's expression deepened into a frown as she glared at Aki, who stopped before her.

"Oh, Aki. Playing the hero really doesn't suit you," Galaxy mentioned, not moving from her stance.

"What makes you think my intentions were heroic? You know I could never allow for you to get such relief..." Aki taunted with a smirk, leaning in closer to Galaxy.

"... Hm. You're just as stubborn as ever, dearest," Galaxy returned, eyes locked with his.

The tension grew rather uncomfortable.........................

"So how many spells do you know, Yukine?!" Echo walked straight through the tension. The two fell back from Echo pushing them aside to face Yukine.

"Just a few basic ones. I can teleport, shield, and attack using an ultimate impact spell that lends me more power. The most advanced spell I know would be summoning items. They're not particularly powerful... but I can use them in good harmony with my senses to advance in hand-to-hand combat..." he muttered.

"Summoning items? What, like Echo does with her swords?" Aki wondered.

"No... it seems to be a slightly different spell. I've never heard of something like this," Echo commented, examining Yukine.

"Uh... I haven't shown you the spell yet. How would you know it's any different...?" Yukine asked in confusion.

"Oh, be careful. Echo gets rude when she's curious~ she'll read your mind without you even having a say!" Galaxy revealed to him.

Yukine's eyes widened with concern and slight astonishment.

"So Yukine's like a discount Echo, huh?" Aki commented.
