(This is between me and StillDoll)
Senka was watching two demons fighting in the arena in front of her.She was wearing her usual black cloak,but the hood wasn't up,showing off her long,pure white hair and bright green eyes.She had 4 swords strapped to her back,a weapon belt that held throwing knifes and shuriken,and needles in a black holder around her left wrist.She leaned against the railing just as one of the demons landed a punch on the other one.

Jacuzzi narrowed his eyes as he watched the brutal battle in the arena. A flash of white got his attention. Turning his attention to the other side of the arena he saw a girl with piercing green eyes, watching the match. He stood up and moved through the crowd like a shadow, no one noticing him.

Senka sighed,placed her elbows on the railing and rested her her head on them.She closed her eyes after a few more moments of watching the fight.So many thoughts were going through her head so Senka mentally shoved them away.She reopened her eyes to see one of the demons scratched the other one,causing the demon to bleed.

Jacuzzi quickly flashed to Senka's side.
"Demon fights get so dull, dont they?" he said cooly.

Senka stood up to look at the man who had spoken to her."After a while,they do."Senka looked back at the fight and shook her head."I can't believe people force creatures to kill each other for enjoyment.It's cruel and unfair."

Jacuzzi shrugs. "I wouldnt say that i didnt enj-" Jacuzzi is cut off when a screech plits the air. He jerks his head back to the arena, his scythe off his back in an instant to protect himself. One of the already badly damaged demons, leaped up into the stands and grabbed a younger woman, then threw her into the oncoming line of arena security guards. they all fell and slid away too far to stop the demon from coming any closer to Jacuzzi and Senka. It leaped at Senka, sharp nails ready to slice through flesh. Before Senka had time to react, Jacuzzi swung the scythe and sliced the demon in half, blood staining his brown, leather boots.

Senka blinked when the man cut the demon in half."T-thanks."Senka managed to say as her mind tried to register how fast the man had moved.

Jacuzzi nodded acknowledging her thanks.
"Crap, my new boots too," he mutters.
He turned to Senka and smirked. Then wiped a few spots of blood from her snow white hair.
"You should've had your hood up," he says like a know it all.

Senka watched Jacuzzi."Who are you?"In Senka's life,she knew only two people that were as fast as Jacuzzi had been:her and her father,Kharon.

"Depends on what you meant. Who am i or What i am," Jacuzzi said in a riddle.
He smirked then looked back down at his boots.
"I need new boots now," he frowned.
He looked back at Senka.
"Think about the riddle and if we meet again I'll tell ya what you want to know." Jacuzzi smirked and winked then disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Senka looked around after Jacuzzi disappeared.A few people were staring at her.Senka huffed pulled her hood over her head and left the town center.In her head,the riddle Jacuzzi said kept replaying,trying to make sense of what he had meant.Senka sighed and kept walking,her 4 swords banging against her back.

Jacuzzi sighed and walked into Leather Bound, the shoe shop where he always had his shoes custom made.
"Jack! I need my extra paired of shoes," yelled Jacuzzi, into the back room.
Jack, the shoe maker, came rushing out of the back room almost running into Jacuzzi. Jacuzzi grabbed his shoes before Jack dropped them.
"Sorry Cuzzi. I was having a little trouble finding them," apologized Jack.
Jacuzzi nodded then threw a small pouch of coins onto the counter and flashed away.

Senka looked up when she heard a cry of fear.She ran toward the voice so fast she was nothing but a blur.Senka slid to a stop not far from where a man held a bloody knife looking down at a small child.She saw the blood pooling around the small child,knowing that the man had killed the small girl.Senka looked at the man and saw him smiling as he stared at the blood.Senka drew her sword.It had a flat point but it was sharp along with the rest of the sword.The man stared at the sword, realizing Senka was an assassin.Senka ran at the man and before he could react,she impaled him in the heart with her sword.She yanked the sword out of him and watched as he fell to the ground.She sheathed her sword,knowing she had lost her temper.As she stared at the man,Senka started to tremble.She looked around at the people who were staring at her.She turned and ran away from the people.When she finally stopped,she was in an alley.Senka pressed her back against the wall and slid down the wall to sit.She started to tremble again as she went over what had happen in her mind,but it was nothing but a blur.Senka hugged herself and took a few deep breaths.

"Wow you really lost back there, huh?" a mans voice says beside Senka.
Jacuzzi leans against the wall, standing next to her, with a tan fedora hat pulled down over his eyes.

Senka looked up,startled by the man from earlier appearing."I don't usually lose control like I did."Senka placed a hand on her left shoulder where a scar that had been given to her by her father from their first battle had formed."I guess the memory of my mother got to me."

Jacuzzi nodded slowly like he knew what she was talking about.
"Unfortunate events happen as much as we dont want them to," he murmured.
Jacuzzi's eyes flashed under his hat as he turned to look at her.
"They are what make us stronger though," Jacuzzi said a little louder than a whisper.

"My father thinks hatred is the one thing that makes someone strong."Senka shook her head as she stood up."If he just accepted that I was his only child,maybe my mother wouldn't have died."Senka looked at the opposite wall from where she was standing,her eyes a dull green.

"Hate? No its what happens that makes you strong," Jacuzzi whispered then nodded.
Jacuzzi took Senka's arm and led her down the alley way at a fast pace. Every now and then he stopped and listened then he kept walking.
"Dont slow down. Keep up. Dont loose sight of me. Got it?" Jacuzzi said quickly to her. He tried to hide the urgency in his voice and did pretty good at doing so.

Senka kept up with Jacuzzi."What's wrong?"

"High level demons. Likes of which you have never seen before," Jacuzzi whispered.
Voices got louder from behind them. Jacuzzi swore under his breath made a sharp turn. He quickly opened a door and pushed Senka in before shutting the door, locking himself outside.
"Senka stay in there for a few minutes and no matter what you hear stay in there." Jacuzzi ordered even though he knew he couldnt make her.
Jacuzzi smiled at his mistake of saying her name, since she had never even told him. The demons came running around the corner and charged at him.
