Nyanko hisses.

And the younger man turns to look at Tsubaki. "There's other interesting things in this village, though... And I want that which you have." He takes a small circular box out of a pocket, holding it up - as a strange mist begins to leak from it -

Permalink

Nope nope nope grabbing sensei and pushing Nanami and running now.

Permalink

She gets out before the mist builds - but she doesn't get very far before she starts feeling a bit dizzy. 

Permalink

Oh, that's not good. She puts Nyanko-sensei down, stumbling a little.

Permalink

" - Tsubaki!" She tries to transform into her great cat form - and fails, swaying a bit at the effort. 

Nanami gets a bit - not quite dizzy, but something close to it.

Permalink

And a warm glow fills Tsubaki's chest. 'Run,' her passenger says. 'I'll purify the poison from you.' She seems a lot less affected than the other two youkai.

Permalink

"Poison," she gets out. "Have to keep moving-"

Permalink

"There's a barrier," she says, scowling. "It's a powerful one, wrapping around this entire area."

Permalink

"Ah. I don't- I don't feel so good."

Permalink

"Tsubaki, can you carry Nanami?"

Permalink

"Yes." Scoop.

Permalink

Oops okay she's up now. This would be sexier if she wasn't feeling sick.

Permalink

And off they go, farther from the center of the mess - which seems to reduce but not get rid of the effect - 

Permalink

And strange, dark shapes begin circling in the sky - like stretched out and distorted people almost. 

Permalink

Maybe they can get out before those come attack too? (She's not holding her breath for that.)

Permalink

They hit an invisible barrier first. 

Permalink

"Owww..."

Permalink

"Let's hide."

Permalink

"Sounds good to me."

Permalink

There's some shallow caves within the barrier, at least, though they'll have to leave tree cover and might end up exposed to the flying things. Or they can hide in one of the abandoned buildings. 

Permalink

Building is better. She doesn't want to get swooped on.

Permalink

- Too late! Two of the flying figures peel off and swoop -

Not, actually, for her. For Nyanko, who's moving slower than normal and lagging behind Tsubaki a bit. 

Permalink

Oh, shit. She's gotta help but first needs to set Nanami down so might not make the tackle-

Permalink

She can make just enough of the tackle that she'd be in the line of attack instead.
