Dante frowned at her stubbornness and slowly sat up. "I'm not tired anymore. Perfectly rested." He said with a small smirk. "So.. Get some rest. I could the training anyway." He said.

Sayuri looked a bit worried,"Are you sure?" She asked gently. After making sure it would really be okay, Sayuri leaned against a tree nearby and started to doze off softly.

Dante nodded and listened as to her breathing as she finally began to doze off. He sighed to himself and closed his eyes, concentrating on everything around himself. It started with the rustling of the leaves in the surrounding trees, and then the chatter of small forest creatures and the flowing of the nearby river. He needed to hold that concentration until morning, that was his goal.

Aria slept peacefully until early the next morning. She woke up at sunrise like she usually did and looked around. Everything seemed alright still and she saw Dante was sleeping. She carefully started up the campfire again and started making something for them to eat for breakfast.

Dante eventually fell asleep on the grass once more. He slept lightly, so he'd wake up if anything tried to get at them or whathaveyou.
He woke to the sound of movement and slowly opened his pale eyes. "Yuri..?" He murmured quietly, as if just making sure it was only her and someone or something else.

"It's just me." Sayuri said softly,"I'm making some breakfast... are you hungry?" She knew that was probbly a dumb question but she would ask anyway. She was making something light, some oatmeal the way he liked it
but living takes true courage.
Dante relaxed some and sat up, shaking his head at her question. "I don't really eat this early.. Remember?" He spoke, covering his mouth to yawn some. "But you better not skip breakfast for my sake." He said quietly.

"I'll just eat a couple of granola bars instead." Sayuri said, putting the oatmeal away for later. She knew it would be alright at least until the end of the day,"I gotta get all this cleaned up so we can get back on the road." She pulled out a couple of granola bars while she cleaned up the dishes and started slowly to pack things up.

Dante frowned. "That's not breakfast.. " He murmured, quietly waiting for her to clean up the campsite.

"Maybe not but it will at least be something." Sayuri said as she got things packed up the way she always did. Once that was all done, she gently helped Dante to his feet,"Let's get going." She said gently, starting to walk with him through the forest again. They had been to this town many times before so getting there and home wouldn' t be too hard.
but living takes true courage.
Dante frowned, but she was right. At least it was something. He got up with her help and made sure his scythe was on his back. He relaxed when it was exactly where it was supposed to be. Holding her hand tightly, Dante followed his sister as they walked.

Sayuri walked with him for a while, carefully guiding him like she always had. It didn't take them long to get to the village that was expecting them. When they had arrived, Sayuri had said her hellos to those waiting for them and waited to hear more about the situation they were helping with.
but living takes true courage.
Dante was quiet as they walked, taking the time to listen to the sounds around him.
Once they arrived, Dante stopped at the gate of the town they were sent to. Something felt very wrong about the whole place, given his newly attained connection to his sixth sense. Putting a hand on the handle of his scythe and following his sister's voice, he reclaimed her hand. "Stay close to me.." He murmured quietly.
They were told where the main house was by the fellow priests of the town and were given little information about the mission that they didn't already.know.

Sayuri held Dante's hand gently and led the way towards the main house, getting a creepy feeling from the town this time. It was usually so welcoming whenever they were there... There's something going on that just changed the whole feel of the town. She wanted to get this done and to go home.
but living takes true courage.
Dante kept his other hand firmly on the grip of his scythe as he followed his sister. If this job was a set up, or took a turn for the worst, he swore he'd protect his sister over the client. No sooner than they stepped inside, the doors of the manor slammed closed which caused Dante to ready his scythe. Typically mansion, big opening with a large staircase which led to the east and west wings of the large house, and some smaller rooms along the sides of the lobby or whatever people called it. Beautiful place, if Dante could see.
Laughter bounced off of the walls and made it seem louder than it was. The lights flickered and afterwards, a young boy and girl, twins stood at the top of the stairs, tightly holding each others hand, their expressions dull. "Here to help us, like the others?" The boy spoke in a monotone. "Or were you sent here to kill us?" The girl spoke in the same mannerism. Dante tensed some. "Yuri.." He murmured. "Tell me what you see.." He murmured quietly.
You can die anytime...
Sayuri explained to him what he needed to know, sticking close to him. She didn't know how to react or to respond to those two, only that she wanted to help them. "What reason would there be for you to die?" Sayuri finally managed to speak.
but living takes true courage.
Dante listened quietly and stepped in front of his sister protectively. The twins remained quietly for a moment as they watched the siblings. "Because.. The church can't successfully exorcise them.." Dante murmured, gritting his teeth. "If we can't exorcise the demons, they're probably hoping we kill the hosts to draw the bugger out." He continued to speak. The twins tilted their heads and smirked. "The blind man can see better than a man with sight." The girl hummed before launching an attack.
Dante stood his ground and blocked a pair of sharpened claws. "We don't wanna hurt you! Tell us how the demon came to be, why it came here of all places." He spoke.

Sayuri gasped,"Who could kill innocent kids?" She asked, shaking her head. After a few moments,"Ooooh the Father will hear about this when we geet back." She growled,"I think he was expecting us to kill them." She looked really angry.
but living takes true courage.
"Yuri, focus!" Dante said to her as he managed to push the girl away from them with his scythe. Dante rushed foreword and placed his hand on the girl's forehead and closed his eyes just long enough to mutter a sleep chant which made the girl fall asleep. He laid her down and raised his head when realized the boy had disappeared. "Shit.." He mused quietly.
You can die anytime...
Sayuri gasped, feeling something sharp at her back. Nothing but blinding, excruciating pain followed in her shoulder, causing her to let out a yelp of pain. She held her shoulder and jumped close to her brother, looking around for the boy,"You little...." She growled softly, trying to keep focus. The pain in her arm was terrible, but she had to stay sharp...
