Today, Reika was visiting Yuunagi. She never really had the occasion to before, and so she was more than happy to finally get the chance. While visiting the Sky Tree and Panpakapan were definitely on her list of things to do, at the moment, she was simply taking a foot guided self tour of the quiet seaside town.

It was nice here- the kind of place that Reika thought she could get used to.

However, she stopped in her tracks after a moment, sensing an unusual energy force- while it wasn't one of darkness, it was certainly out of the ordinary.

[S-so many new people! Rikka straightens up and fumbles with her red framed glasses for a moment, bowing in greeting.]

Denereki was quiet as she sat by herself on the couch, idly strumming a few notes on her guitar. She was mulling things over in her head, and chewing on her lower lip; it was clear was was edgy or nervous about something.

It had been a week? Maybe more? She'd just kept to herself even though she was basically a house guest. But it was all for a good reason, at least that's what she thought. She needed to get her mind straight.

Even with the advice she'd gotten it was hard. She needed to come out and just say what was going on. But she was never good at explaining it. It would be much easier to do in a song. And she finally had it written, she just needed her audience to come home now.

She looked to the living room entrance, then away again. As soon as the Fire Elemental showed himself, she would have to grab his attention, make him sit down, and make him listen.

Denereki sighed and looked off again. The basket Raiji claimed for himself was currently a nest for both him and Hinoko as they napped curled up. 

Honestly Denereki was a little surprised that she'd been invited to stay with the fire elemental until she could get a place of her own. He didn't even have a house until recently and she was sure he would want some private time to get settled. But he offered, and she was grateful if not a little embarrassed.

She stood outside the door of the home, one small duffle bag over her right shoulder, and in her arms the basket that Raiji made into his nesting place. She only had a few personal items, and most things she had were left behind at the manor she lived at.

"We have to be on our best behavior," she parted the little cover she'd made out of a cut up sheet for the basket. "It's really nice we get to stay here. We don't want to run out our welcome. So no wire chewing."

The little spirit chirped. "Daddy."

"Yes, daddy's house." She wasn't sure her warning got through. With a hesitant hand she reached out and finally knocked.

Denereki just wasn't feeling like herself. Things had changed so suddenly and there was plenty to think about. Though she had one thing she wanted to do, or at least ask about, she just wasn't sure the other would be up for it.

She decided to try and track the fire elemental down all the same though. It never hurt to ask. And she had something else she wanted to say anyway. Though feeling still a bit drained from the recent events, she found her ability to pick up on the other elemental was lacking. 

Had she not fallen for a trap, an obvious one at that, she may have managed to get away from her current situation. However at the moment Denereki couldn't even remember the conversation she'd had with Kintoleski. Once she'd been taken back to realm of her creator, she had been changed.

It seemed it didn't matter that she gave the crystal away, as Kokagesei had another plan in mind. This time he planted a stone right on her, centered on her forehead. It was small, would be hard to hit or remove. She was now changed into that newer form, the one caused by the dark power up and she was waiting.

A Shade Spirit had done it's best to track down the Fire elemental, a note in it's mouth to be delivered.

Usually the underhanded and devious type of the three, Youko-Oto had learned to use his talents in such a way. He nearly master of disguise, able to make costumes that could fool just about anyone. And with his power over sound, he could impersonate voices. Though he could careless about the mission he'd been given at that moment, it at least gave him a chance to use these skills.

Their master was tired of seeing Denereki get distracted from her job. She was spending more time just getting in taunting matches than making any real progress. There was also some concern she could be pulled away to the other side. So he sent Youko-Oto to drive a nice wedge between the strange relationship she had with her target.
