Quetioning

[Taifuu]

Taifuu had walked deep below the school heading towards the Underground Prison. He still had the unconicous Shiwase on his shoulder as he walked down the steps. It was fairly dark and dim lights surrounded the walls giving the place a dark and cold feeling. Tai didn't really like being down here to much, it gave him the chills as if something bad was down here. He had finally reached the base of the steps and looked at the five cells. Tai had pulled out a key that was inl given to Tsurabi to improsion enimies that were caught. He then had open up the cell and laid Shiwase down and closed the cell as he walked out. Tai had made sure he locked it so that Shiwase could get, which he highly doubeted judging from his condition.

"Heh, heh, I may have misesed it but from the way your looking I can tell Hatsugen did some damage to you big time. Well now all I have to do is wait for Hatsugen and Jisenki to get down here so we can wrap this up."

Tai leaned up against the wall across the room from the cell that Shiwase was in. He closed his eyes as he waited for the two to come. He needed something to do to pass the time.

[Nejisuke]

Nejisuke Shoujouhi moans in his unconciousness. In his head the elementalists trapped in the Uzu Shoujouhi are speaking to him. You lost??? You should have started using all of your techniques once you started loosing. Apperently we're going to have to train you more. You're protecting of your friend, that was a great idea. I think you are metaly ready for some new, more dangerous techniques. I did the best i could in that fight... And yes, i am ready. I need to come up with a new course of action soon though. Let's hope i can escape this campus first though. Nejisuke Shoujouhi's body starts to convulse a bit, and he coughs up a bit of blood then opens his eyes. He puts himself into a sitting position against the wall. He scans the room carefully, and he sees Taifuu sitting outside his cell. "Where am i Taifuu?" He had given up the Shiawase allias. He remebered a bit about Taifuu from when he was a student here.

[Kisuke]

Hatsugen comes walking down towards the prison, kept deep underground. He took his time, taking in the sights of the Underground Prison, which he had only now seen for the first time since he had been at the school. He looked around until he saw the captive. In his mind, he knew Taifuu had done a good job. A click and a rattle could be heard as Hatsugen stuck his S.G.T.A in his pocket before walking in front of the captive. He had just called Jisenki and sent a message telling him where to go. He had only hoped that Jisenki received the message.

He walked in front of the captive, making a calm yet stern face. His fists were clenched tightly as he was anxious for Jisenki to arrive.

[Taifuu]

Tai had opened his eyes slightly as he heard his name being called from Shiawase across from his cell. He had stood up straight and had folded his arms as he looked across to the dim room into the dark cell. He knew now that whoever he really was Taifuu had known him. From the feleling that he first got when he saw Shiawase up to now, had continously grown. Tai thought now would be as good as time as ever to start getting some information. As he began to speak Tai's eyes looked very lazy as if he were just waking up from a deep sleep but he only looked like this because he was most likely bored.

"So you do know me. I thought that, you seemed familar since I fisrt saw you at Nejisuke's house. As of where we are...you don't need to know that right now. You'll find out soon enough. But what I want to know is who you really are. I figured Shiawase wasn't your entire name or your name at all. I want to know your real name."

Just as Tai had said that he saw Hatsugen come down the stairs and walked in front of Shiwase's cell. Tai had flicked his wrist slightly at Hatsugen in a waving manner to aknowledge his prescence. He saw that Jisenki wasn't with him and figured that he would be down shortly. He still had his eyes looking into the cell awaitng for a response.

[Jisenki]

Jisenki walked down the stairs and through the hallway, walking with a usual pace and with a serious look on his face. This could be the result of his training with Karilu and his death inducing exercises and workouts. Jisenki was hiding most of his body by the blue cape he wore. Actually, he had a few scars and wounds on his arm although he didn't want them to show. He had actually received Taifuu's call first but due to his training, Karilu wouldn't allow him to answer his S.G.T.D. With complete calmness and a cool look on his face he walked over to where Hatsugen and Taifuu were. Looking at them and then at the man down there. "So, this is the prisoner? Considering that Hatsugen called me not too long ago to tell me he was here and how long that was from when Taifuu first called, it would seem like he wither put up a good fight. Or at least he was quick and hard to catch."

Jisenki wanted to be breifed a bit. He looked at Taifuu with a slight grin on his face. This was obviously the result of Taifuu's mission and it seemed like he did a good job. The original mission was to simply spy and then give Jisenki information. Taifuu did a little more than necessary by actually finding something wrong and capturing him. "Nice work Taifuu. It seems like you completed your mission and even caught a prisoner." He turned to Hatsugen. "You have done well too. I didn't even expect you to be involved in this but you proved your worth here and it seems like you and Taifuu really fought hard with this guy judging from the bruises and wounds he has." Jisenki was looking at the man while partially looking at Hatsugen.

His face's expression changed a bit to a more serious one and the overall mood shifted from a calm one to a more dramatic one. A mood that was more intense. "So Taifuu, do you have an overall report of your mission starting from when you were supposed to spy on this person and Nejisuke?" Jisenki wasn't making eye contact with Taifuu while this was going on but instead he was looking at the prisoner, never breaking eye contact at all or blinking. After a second, he did blink and as his eye lids came back up from the blink, his eyes had become different in appearance. It was his Soshi No Manako. He was using it to study the elemental signature of the person. This would allow him to get a better understanding of the person through their element as well as determine what elements he uses in case something happens and they may meet him again. Jisenki took extreme caution with this. He didn't think anyone noticed the eye transition, but he wasn't really trying to hide it.

[Taifuu]

As he heard Jisenki beginning to talk, Taifuu eyes began to widen slightly from his lazy look he had previously. He eyes turned to Jienki even though Jisenki wasn't looking at him. A small smirk had come across his face after Jisenki asked him about his mission. With his arms still folded he walked up next to Jisenki and looked into the cell. He made a small chuckle before he began to actually speak. "Heh, heh so the Head Warriior finally shows up after all tihs time. Would it kill ya to respond to my call next time. I could died out there." Then his face then transitioned to a more serious look as looked at the prisoner.

"Well my report starts off with me succesfully infiltrating Nejisuke's house and finding Nejisuke and this guy talking. From what he says the name his name is Shiawase. At first, all the conversation was about was doing some trainning and then they headed outside for some sparring. It seemed normal at first but the spar was suddenly stopped by the doorbell. Shiwase took off immediatly on to the campus. I pursued him until he stopped in a particularly random spot. He seemed to be waiting for someone since there was nothing special in that area. From what I could tell he went to that specific spot to wait for Hatsugen because when Hatsugen had seen him he immediatly engaged him in battle without any real reason. The fight was did not last long with Hatsugen gaining the upper hand. Hatsugen and I had the same idea into questioning him, but when we tried to he resisted capture and tried to flee. We both pursued him until he was succesfully taken down. He was brung down here for proper intergation. I also believe that he may be a member of Suzaku. The all together status of the mission: Asuccess.

Tai then had caught his breath after giving his report. He said alot in a little bit of time with barely any breaths in between. Tai then whispered to Jisenki with making eye contact with him but was leaned just slightly towards him. "Oh and I almost forgot to metion, I've had this strange feeling that we know him. I had a stong suspicion that his name wasn't even Shiawase from the beginning. He even seems to know my name like we were once familar with each other. I thought that maybe you may know him too or remember somthing."

[Kisuke]

Hatsugen focused his attention to Taifuu as he gave a verbal mission report to Jisenki. That was how it happened from what Hatsugen could tell. There were some parts that he wasn't apart of, so he didn't know exactly waht had happened, but he got a pretty good sense of the time in which things occurred by what Taifuu said. Hatsugen kept in his mind the lines 'It seemed normal at first but the spar was
suddenly stopped by the doorbell. Shiwase took off immediatly on to the
campus. I pursued him until he stopped in a particularly random spot.
He seemed to be waiting for someone since there was nothing special in
that area. From what I could tell he went to that specific spot to wait
for Hatsugen because when Hatsugen had seen him he immediatly engaged
him in battle without any real reason'. From what Taifuu had said, this would prove that this person was up to something and didn't plan on being caught. The doorbell could have been an ally of him or anyone from the school although the captive must not have known because he fled. Hatsugen tried to put pieces together. He thought about the person meeting him at the campus in that specific spot.

Wait a minute! This person called Shiawase was waiting in that spot? This means that he intentionally attacked me. I guess that would explain why he asked for Hatsugen directly. And now that I think of it, he could very well be the person from earlier that was in the mask and cloak. I thought the person from earlier said that they had some 'evil' power or something like that within them and it would be unleashed if they took off the mask? If Shiawase and the cloaked man from earlier are the same, that means that he lied because he didn't want his identity to be known. However, Nejisuke would probably know his name. That traitor!! What if he told Shiawase my name and where I'd be. This means that he could possibly be assisting Nejisuke, and if Shiawase is a part of Suzaku....that means that Nejisuke is helping Suzaku!!

Hatsugen's face changed instantly. He felt as though he had been backstabbed by someone and he wanted some answers. He looked at Jisenki. He wanted to bring someone else in for this interrogation.

"Excuse me Jisenki, but I would like to ask that I go and find Nejisuke and bring him here to ask him some questions. I have an assumption that he may be assisting Suzaku and giving this Shiawase person some information about the school. This could prove dangerous."

[Nejisuke]

Nejisuke Shoujouhi relaxes down against the wall in his cell. He scratches the back of his head, that he had hit when he fell after blacking out earlier. He sits back against the wall and listens carefully to the conversation going on in front of him. "Umm, excuse me, but i believe i'm sitting here for interogations, and the only person who has adressed me at all is Taifuu, so are you guys gonna get on with it, or can i take a nap? Oh, and Taifuu, my actual first name i no longer go by, i am known as Nejisuke."

[Jisenki]

Jisenki looked at Nejisuke. He was a little bit annoyed that this person attacked a Tsurabi of the school and wanted to take a nap during an investigation. He expected the person to ask for forgiveness. Some of the things Jisenki would do in the past flowed through his mind. Back then when he was fifteen, he would probably try to kill someone that made a comment like that. Now, he was more level headed although that didn't stop him from pulling out the Shift Blade. It was in its first form but that didn't mean that it couldn't hurt someone.

"Nejisuke you say? Well Nejisuke, if it makes you comfortable you are welcome to take a nap. However, once you fall asleep, you may not ever wake up. So do what you want. If you fall asleep before or during interrogation though, you might as well kiss your life good bye."

His voice was completely calm while he spoke, showing how confident he was. After he finished speaking, Jisenki made a quick slashing motion with his sword, inferring that he would cut off Nejisuke's head with his sword. Karilu was obviously rubbing off against him. Jisenki was beginning to use his actions to speak in place of his words. He looked at Hatsugen after having to ignore him in order to give a message to the prisoner Nejisuke.

"About your request Hatsugen, go ahead. We may need him here too so that we can clear things up. We'll learn a lot from his presence here."

[Kisuke]

Hatsugen nodded and dashed off, leaving a small trail of dust as he departed. His task for the moment was to find Nejisuke and bring him back. Unfortunately, Hatsugen felt weak and that last fight did hurt him quite a bit. If he was going to find Nejisuke, he would have to do so without any violence. It was either that or he could take some time to find Maya and get healed, which might take a while. It was true that he could just call her, but there was a chance that she didn't pick up and the trip to get to her would be exhausting.

Outside of the prison, Hatsugen leaped to the top of a building to catch his breath. He heavy breathing and perspiration around his neck was evident that he wasn't as young as he used to be. He could still fight like he could but his stamina wasn't still there.

No matter how much I don't like it, I'm not 27 anymore. However, I need to find Nejisuke as quickly as possible.

Hatsugen jumped from building to building looking down below in the process to find Nejisuke. He realized that if Nejisuke had simply been at the meeting to get the S.G.T.D, Hatsugen could simply call him. It was starting to get late. Hatsugen looked at he sun setting in the distance.

This might be an all-nighter.

[Taifuu]

Tai had smirked as Jisenki swung his blade as the remark that Nejisuke had made about going to sleep. It was kind of funny to see Jisenki get irritated after so long of knowing him. Tai had extended his arm towards the blade and gently pushed it down as Jisenki held it. "Easy Jisenki, its not like you now to get irritated by such a small remark. Usually thats my job. We can't have you killing every prisoner that we capture just because he said something smart." Taifuu smirk grew a bit larger as he said this. Knowing Jisenki for so long, he knew sometimes when they were younger he could get a bit angry at people when they insulted him, but then again Tai was worse. He would attempt to kill them because of his younger days of being a hothead. Though that wasn't the time to be thinking about that. Just in that instant something had clicked in his mind.

"Wait, he said that his name was Nejisuke, and there are only two Nejisuke that I know. The Tsurabi Nejisuke and...your the Nejisuke that left the school and joined Suzaku aren't you? That would explain why you came to the other Nejisuke. You knew that he would cover for you if there was a suspicion.

Tai's eyes swinted as he looked at Nejisuke to get a better look at Nejisuke. He was right. Thats why he looked so familiar when Taifuu had first seen him. That would also explain why he seemed to know Tai when he awakened. Tai then looked at Jisenki and then looked back at Nejisuke. His smrked had dimmed down a bit.

"Well I may as well ask you to get this interrogation started. Why did you come here, by yourself for that matter?

[Nejisuke]

Nejisuke Shoujouhi chuckled a bit under his breath, not enough for anyone else to hear him though. He hadn't meant for his remark to cause such a stir, but it possibly interupted his interogators train of thought. He glances at Taifuu as he asks his questions. "I came here, for two things, one: to gather information, and two: to eliminate another Tsurabi. You may think that my target was Hatsugen, but no. If my bomb was succesful, Nejisuke Metaruhando, should currently be dead." Nejisuke Shoujouhi's face lit up at this last remark. This of course was a facade, but it was so utterly convincing Nejisuke Metaruhando himself would have though Nejisuke S to be happy at the thought of his death.

[Jisenki]

Jisenki looked at Nejisuke carefully. He examined his person completely, nearly memorizing what the person looked like. He thought of a question and a situation in his head but made sure that his actions wouldn't show what he was planning. He first sighed a bit and then began his questions.

"First, answer this. If you were after Nejisuke, why did you attack Hatsugen so suddenly? There are other ways of settling problems and conflicts although I don't recommend killing someone. My second question...Do you have any evil intention at all and are you allied at this moment with any evil organization at all. Basically, what I'm getting at is: do you know about Suzaku and are you apart of it?"

[Nejisuke]

Nejisuke Shoujouhi notices the quizical look in Jisenki's eyes, and factors this away for pondering over later. He waits a couple of seconds to form a good answer to Jisenki's questions, and then begins to speak. "Think on this Jisenki, if you leave a trap for one tsurabi, then what do you do while waiting for the trap to be sprung? You go after another of course. Although my aim in attacking Hatusgen wasn't for the purpose of killing him, unless of course i managed to weaken him to that point. No, my purpose was only to learn of what he could do, since he was one of the Tsurabi i had never met. And to your second question, yes, i am part of Suzaku. It's aims i am well aware of, but they have nothing to do with me, I could really care less about what Suzaku does. I"m just in it for my own purposes."

[Dagomis]

(OOC: Is this topic still active?)

[Nejisuke]

OOC: i'm pretty sure it is. it isn't done yet, i was just gone for a while so i guess it was put on hold temporarily.

[Jisenki]

OOC: Yeah, its not over but with all that's been going on...well its just progressing slowly. Someone can post, unless I should post. I don't remember now.

[Nejisuke]

OOC: you were up Jisenki, cause i had just posted last. and after you post, Nejisuke Metaruhando will be arriving.

[Dagomis]

(OOC: Actually it would be either Taifuu or Kisuke's turn, depending on how they decide.)

[Kisuke]

Hatsugen walks up to the cell, hearing the majority of what was said. He now knew for sure that he was in Suzaku and he also knew that Nejisuke was trying to test his skills and learn about him, an endeavor he was unsuccessful in since he hadn't seen more than about four of Hatsugen's attacks. He hadn't even seen the weapon of Hatsugen, which made him sure that no true knowledge was learned by Suzaku. Hatsugen didn't really trust Nejisuke, and wouldn't believe his whole comment about him not really caring about Suzaku, or at least 'being in it for himself', to partially put it in his words. Hatsugen remained quiet, not drawing attention or allowing anyone to believe he was thinking anything.

[Nejisuke]

Nejisuke Metaruhando walks calmly down the steps. Each step echoing in the small room below. When he becomes visible his face is blank and unreadaable. He looks at Nejisuke Shoujouhi sitting in his cell. "By the time your life is over, you will wish it had ended today." He then looks away and goes to stand against the wall by Hatsugen. "Everyone may continue with the interogation." Nejisuke Metaruhando begins to toss a small metal ball between his hands slowly, but his face remains the same.

[Nejisuke]

Nejisuke Shoujouhi's face remains mostly what it had been before, joking with almost a superior look to it as Nejisuke Metaruhando comes down the steps. When he sees the look on Nejisuke Metaruhando's face, his face immidietly dropped, and almost disbelief seems to flash across his face. This is the first time he had seen Nejisuke M's face like that. It was creepy almost. At his words Nejisuke Shoujouhi flinches as if each was a blow, then he sorta slumps against the wall. "Yeah, continue with your questions." But anyone could tell his attitude to the questions had changed, almost as if he was only responding half-heartedly. If Nejisuke M hadn't been such a great alchemist, he could have made his living as an actor, he is excelent.
