Main Lobby/office

She nodded, and sighed. "So far this Alastor looks like a decent fellow...a little rough around the edges-but not bad at all. He really could be an asset too." she thought, blushing lightly. "Well Tom, you can come out now and help." she commanded.

"Ok, that should be everything." Alastor said to Rachel as he head down the stairs. "Oh, and as for vehicles, I'll be bringing mine along, if a situation where it's needed arises."

Tom appeared by her side grinning. "So...are you ready to leave this insufferable place my Lady?" he asked grinning sadistically. He then turned his attention to the young Alastor, his grin turned flat before perking up again. "As are you Mr. Alastor Grey?"

Despite the fact this individual appeared out of thin air, enough had happened in the last 24 hours that he really wasn't surprised anymore. "Yeah, that's me. I'm probably gonna end up working with you on this security job, aren't I?" Alastor asked, somewhat expecting him to say yes, the other part preferring that he'd be wrong.

Rachel turned to Tom then to Alastor again. "Oh, I forgot to introduce you two." She started, her body half turning. "Alastor, this is my Butler, T.O.M.. He's also one of my personal confidants. So in a way you are and your not working with him. And yes, he always smiles. Just putting that out there." she finished.

He simply bowed to the young man and kept his smile.

"Fine, not a problem. Just need to get my motorcycle out from my garage."

"Tom will take care of that, don't you worry." she replied turning back to the butler. "It's time. Lets go." she ordered.

Tom nodded and then Alastor, Rachel, Alastor's briefcase, and his motorcycle were enveloped in a black clouds shrowded with dark blue swirls of electricity striking out of it-before vanishing. Tom grinned, snapped his fingers and also faded away.

Saeko opened the door to the enterance and came inside with her katana held firmly in hand. She walked up to the desk, and looked around. Is everyone gone? She looked around a little more, and propped herself up onto the desk, sitting there and closing her eyes...taking in the environment.

Satori came down the stairs and then spotted from the corner of her eye stands of purple hair. She paused, and turned to fully towards Saeko-almost expecting to see her covered in blood and Alastor and his new employer's body laying onto the ground. However this wasn't the case, and it was only Saeko sitting on the edge of Alastor's desk, calmly and with her eyes closed. "So-you came back to finish the job, huh?" Satori convicted, leaping over the railing and landing on one knee on the office floor, with her weapon in hand. She stood up and lets go of her sword-letting it bounce against her thigh. "I'm sorry-but he isn't in right now. Won't be for a while." She replied bluntly.

Saeko's eyes opened slowly, and she cocked her head towards Satori's postition. "I'm not here for Alastor Grey; not today. No...I'm here for you." she replied standing up from the desk and turning to the blue haired woman. Her katana rattled, and her expression on her face was serious, and her eyes glazed with a killer's determination.

Satori's eyes narrowed. "So...is that how it is then. This a personal matter, or do the Crimson Knight Brigade want me dead as well?" she replied. Standing firm and unwavering she awaited the answer from her former friend.

"I'm afraid it's more deeper than that, but I suppose they would want you dead as well. But since have we cared for such meaningless details? It's just us...you and I. Two warriors, daughters of the greatest warriors of Beijio..." she started to reply, drawing her blade. "...Draw your sword Kabuki...It would be disapointing for you not to play host after five years of silence. I almost forgot the tone of your voice till last night, use it to chant to your clan..." She commanded when she pointed the blade at Satori one handed.

She commanded when she pointed the blade at Satori one handed.

Satori took a slight step back, hesitating slightly. "Saeko..." she was going to try and compromise with the Samurai's daughter, but she quickly gathered that she was not going to listen. She regained her composure. "Fine...if you so desire. Keep your word this duel stays only in the compound of the Wolf's Lament." she demanded, gripping her blade.

Saeko dropped her sheath, and changed her stance into the Gedan no Kamae position. The blade was low, and below the waist level. She grinned. "I would'nt have it any other way." she replied her body pulsing suddenly, and a gold-white light radiated from her body and blade in a shimmering fashion. She didn't flinch to the booming of the juke box, but she only grinned and waited for her opponent to ready herself.

Satori closed her eyes, and breathed slowly, and she brought up her right arm. "Kiyome no gishiki" A circle of light below her feet glows-and then a cone of light radiates upward and slowly it transforms Satori into a more traditional dress. A ceremonial blue spider-silk kimono with gold depictions of dragons and with metal plated hem; black metal and leather shinobu armor; black leather fingerless gloves, leather belt wrapped around waist, white loincloth, black metal and leather bandana; red spider silk scarf. She had a clawed feral on her left arm, and her sword...became a Ceremonial blade that was almost as long as she was tall; a Nodachi with the Kabuki Family name glided upon it. She opened her eyes and reached for the long sword that was now on her back. "Saeko..." She gripped the the hand guard of the weapon.

Saeko's grin broadened. "Enough talk-if you have something to say-speak with your blade!" she exclaimed, charging towards Satori, swinging her blade horizontally as she got within striking range.

Satori was quicker than she was before, hoping up onto Saeko's blade before lunging over Saeko's head into a roll, landing onto her feet. Her fierce eyes glanced towards her right, looking back at Saeko. She pivoted her feet, turning around and swinging the long blade in unison at Saeko's legs.

Saeko senced the oncoming blade, and she dove forward towards the wall. She rolled and propped her feet against the wall and shot off it in a rebound. I will not fail! She smiled, the force of the rebound gave her enough momentum to send her back towards Satori in less than half a second. She swung the blade at medium level, aimed for Satori's neck.

Satori's eyes flashed and she was suddenly gone-teleporting behind Saeko and countering with a diagonal slash to Saeko's back. "Saeko-what do you hope to gain from any of this?" she asked-following up her slash with a charge towards the samurai.

Saeko brought back the blade-blocking the blade with the pommel of her katana; preventing the slashing of her back. She turned pushing back the blade and round housing Satori in the gut while in unison, switched hands with her sword and slashed across Satori's chest. "I...gain nothing-but my Father will regain his honor!" she exclaimed, changing stances again-this time into the right side Hasso no Kamae stance. Her sword is upright, held high, and edge forward. Her elbows were close to the body, feet close together, and her body was straight. She narrowed her eyes-ready for her opponent to recover.

Satori let out a gasp and stumbled back into Alastor's Desk. She regained her composure, wincing at the cut across her chest that was bleeding. She gritted her teeth and looked up at Saeko. "So your willing to die huh? For something we had no control over?" Her breathing slowed. "Your sick Saeko, and if you don't back down now...I can't promise you that I won't kill you!" She then lunged at Saeko, and when she swung her blade it was imbued with flames that stuck out at her chest:

Saeko hissed, stepping back...but then she grinned and started to chuckle. Her wounds spat no blood, nor were they burnt. "I'm sorry-but did you say that you can't promise you would'nt kill me?" She asked, balancing the blade on her right shoulder, grinning.
