Action - 006

[moezama]

[...Well, this was a little unexpected. Kazuma finds himself standing at the center of the village plaza later on this evening, pretty much having the same pose as the icon, although in new feather garbs. He looks at his surroundings. There was something vaguely familiar about the village, and this pain behind his back...like a dream he once had long ago. Slowly it comes back to him.

He chuckles quietly upon realizing where he was. This was a joke, right? Oh, but of course Luceti was always good at causing interruptions for everyone wasn't it? He sighs, no point in questioning it. He should just go and find his clothes.

As he walks to the clothing store, he realized how quiet it was. Not that the village was quiet in the least, it's his head. It was almost unsettling how quiet it was in his head right now. Terumi would surely have a say or two right now but...nothing.]


--------

[Kazuma can be found at the clothing store after his return wearing not his old clothes, but the uniform Hazama wore in the NOL. Odd. Yet Kazuma didn't find anything strange about it at all, like this was totally what he has always worn. What he found strange was that he couldn't find his journal. Didn't new feathers usually get them upon arrival?

He'll be checking the various stores, the item and weapon shops afterwards for his things before concluding his journal wasn't here. It couldn't still be at the old House was it? Ugh, he's not sure if he wanted a reunion, but the journal is kind of vital in this place. Maybe he can sneak into House 48 without anyone noticing. So he can be seen walking down the path towards House 48 from the plaza.

Once there, he'll be as quiet as possible getting in and getting out with his things...damn that front door sure makes an awful loud creaking sound and this house--this house stinks like cat. Ugh.]

[OOC: The Malnosso have messed around with Kazuma's head and a few other things, so this is who he believes to be right now. Though he doesn't share the headspace with Terumi in Luceti. This is lasting for a week.]

How about you listen to me and back the hell off!? [He has to bluff. But he's already sensing how vulnerable he is, and that's no good. He would usually be ready to fight with the Azure as it was, so this was bad. Could bluffing even help?]

[Action]

[moezama]

And what if I choose not to? What will you do to me if I don't back off, Ragna? I really want to know.

[You are hiding something cause he can see through that bluff. When has Ragna ever not been hesitant to get a hit in?]

[Action]

[rageface]

[Shit. Shit. Shit.]

What'll I do? [Got to keep it up. There's no way that Ragna can back down now. It'll be like opening himself up to being shanked.] I'll rip your goddamn head off!

[Action]

[moezama]

[Oh well, he did anyway. He's just laughing at him now.]

How? By yelling at me? You're not going to use your toy against me or-- [Oh gosh, this is just too funny.] You can't, can you!?

[Action]

[rageface]

[Super shit.]

Don't start stuffing words in my mouth, you sonnuvabitch! [He grabs the hilt to Blood-scythe with his left hand. He can do this much, yeah.] Bring it on!

[Action]

[moezama]

[He just smiles knowingly.] All right. [He's not even going to start with his knives, he's skipping right on to his Ouroburos, summoning his snakes]

I will! [Have fun dodging a horde of snakes coming at you. He might even notice some of them are aiming for his azure arm.]

[Action]

[rageface]

[Shit. He notices that trajectory just a bit, and he knows that he tries to dodge, the arm will either get in the way or get hit in the attempt. Which means he has to block. Luckily, Ragna can manages to use his weapon with just one hand. Ragna can do that quite well.

He raises the sword and lashes it out at the snakes in an attempt to destroy them before they hit. Or at least deflect them.]

[Action]

[moezama]

What's wrong Ragna!? You think you can beat me without that fake imitation on your arm!?

[Kazuma won't stop sending snakes at Ragna, attempting to make him feel cornered.]

[Action]

[rageface]

Shut the hell up! You don't know what the hell you're talking about!

[He keeps swinging his sword, slowly being forced into taking steps back to increase the time between each snake. He's getting tired.]

[Action]

[moezama]

I don't!? [He unleashes another wave of snakes and then follows along behind it, drawing out his knives.

Ragna better be ready to block or he's going to get a nice cut across his chest.]

[Action]

[rageface]

[With the sword already in front of him, Ragna makes an effort to block, though he's caught off-balance by the random strike coming from the guy. He was expecting more snakes.]

Shit!

[Action]

[moezama]

[Kazuma, had the most gleeful look on his face when he struck Ragna. He then turns his body, raising his leg in an attempt to give Ragna a swift kick to his sides]

Not so tough anymore now are you!?

[Action]

[rageface]

[Not the sides, anything but the sides. Ragna takes the full brunt of the kick and is sent right into the ground, Blood-scythe crashing out of his hand and into the ground.]

Gah-- Dammit!

[Action]

[moezama]

Hahaha, wow the tables have really turned this time, huh Rags? [And he strides right on over and puts his foot on top of him.]

Oh, I'm so sorry. Is that arm bothering you again? Cause I can cut it off for you this time.

[Action]

[rageface]

[The moment the foot lands on his chest, Ragna grabs his ankle with his only working arm. Damn, damn, damn. Look at the shit he got himself wrapped up in.]

Goddammit-- Get off of me!

[Action]

[moezama]

[Nope, he just puts more pressure on that foot as he comes closer to examine his limp arm.]

How did you manage to lose your arm again? Oh...wait, don't tell me. It was during that one time, right? That time when you were acting crazy and releasing all that seithr around the village? You had to be such a pain.

[Action]

[rageface]

[It hurts. It hurts more than it should for that foot to be digging into his chest and Ragna knows it. He hates it.]

H-How did you...?

[Action]

[moezama]

How? What do you mean how, I was there of course! You got me stuck in bed for days, you know! ...Oh! [He puts a hand over his mouth, acting surprised]

Oh, I see. Hehe, of course you wouldn't realize now.

[Action]

[rageface]

[What? Hazama was nowhere to be seen. Ragna had good enough memories of the horrors he did while the beast, and he knows for a fact that he never touched Hazama--

... No.] --Kazuma!?

[Action]

[moezama]

[Snerk] Wow, you actually got it right this time! Gold star for you.

[He says as he claps his hands together]

[Action]

[rageface]

You bastard! [Despite feeling so weak and vulnerable, Ragna was beginning to feel a little bit of his rage fuel his strength. He's going to start shoving that ankle a bit harder.]

I knew this would happen! I knew it!

[Action]

[moezama]

Whoa, now! [He jerks his foot off Ragna finally, but just returns with another kick to his sides]

You're calling me names again when I haven't done anything! So rude of you.

[Action]

[rageface]

[That kick rolls Ragna over, him having trouble in getting to his feet thanks to half his body not responding like it should.]

Dammit... You've done... [Nothing, technically. But the idea that Kazuma is Hazama is driving him into a blind fury.] Shut up!

[Action]

[moezama]

[He just laughs]

Is that really your answer? Then again, you know it's true. Oh and this little show, sorry but it just feels so nice to have the upperhand for once.

[Action]

[rageface]

[He's slowly getting up. Slowly, but surely. And that fire of rage is still burning in his chest, more than enough make him put up a fight if Hazama -- no, Kazuma was still around in a few minutes.]

... Don't you ever shut up?
