Meme response--- Hajime and Kayura
Kayura is taking a call in her office. The door is wide open so it would be easy for anyone to over hear her as she is talking.

"Three of them, you say? Well that shouldn't be a problem," she said calmly. "I have seen more. Now how old is the property?"

She writes something down.

"Well I'll take care of it over the weekend. I have a few days off this weekend and I can conduct my research there. It's just three spirits. It shouldn't be a problem. Like I said."

She pauses and listens almost laughing. "Seriously? Aa. It sounds like they have a sense of humor then as far as spirits go. I'll be careful."

It looked like she was going to have a very busy weekend. Kayura said her goodbyes to her friend hanging up the phone and looked quite thoughtful as well as a touch amused. Prankster spirits? That sounds different than violent ones or confused ones.

A nice change of pace.

	That gets another smile from her. "If it isn't as easy as I thought I may need that." She has needed to rest like that before though she isn't so sure recovering from injuries is the same thing at all. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He nods, that will do nicely. Especially since they have vaguely similar ideas about relaxing. Sure, he has his downtime for reading, listening to music, and so on... in precisely parceled amounts, and he takes his relaxing extremely seriously. Like almost everything he does. "Very well. I will pack for the trip." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I'll need to as well since this is slightly unplanned." She can do spontaneous things on occasion. These usually involve trips to the dog park with her dog and that tennis ball that no longer looks like one. "How long will you need?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Ah." She adjusts her glasses in though. "I need different shoes. They're at home so we will need to stop there but it's on the same route we would have to take anyways." She also will leave a note for her Uncle about her dog. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He gathers his bag, pre-packed for missions... seeing as how what he wears and uses during missions is the same as what he wears almost everywhere that's not a formal occasion. Then he meets her back in the main hall, traveling with her to leave her note and get her shoes. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	It doesn't take much after that for them to get on their way. Her dog tries to follow her to the car because he loves car rides since they usually end in fun so she has to get him back in first. Other than that everything goes without a hitch. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Hajime is happy to assist with the dog, even playing fetch with it a bit to help deal with the worst of the excess energy. Seems he's a dog person. Who knew? Then he's in the car with her, watching the scenery out the windows as they head for the haunted locale. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

She certainly hadn't but her dog had been very thrilled at having another playmate.

The car drive is uneventful except for when Kayura is nearly cut off by another driver. She made an irritated sound under her breath but kept calm. It's actually a very nice drive aside from that.

When they get there they are met by Kayura's friend who wanted to make sure they had the keys so they would have full access to every section of the hotel and grounds.

	This is Kayura's mission, he's just here to help. So Hajime mostly stays out of the way to let her talk to her friend, get the particulars and otherwise assess the situation. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Right. So we have the keys. I think we should do a full walk around to get a feel for what's going on." They knew about the weird pranks and things going missing then showing up again. Also the weird sounds and lights. She wants to figure this out soon. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Hai." She went to fetch a bag from her trunk. "I keep a bag with things I might need in my car. Well, a few different bags." She grabbed one of them that looks fairly tightly packed. "You never know what you'll run into." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"The south wall is part of the original plans. I think perhaps when they started repairs they may have disturbed something," Kayura decides. "We'll just need to go around since the south exit is sealed off. There was damage making it unsafe." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Interesting. And perhaps something to investigate at some point. For now, yes, around." he agrees, letting her take the lead, and moving to flank her. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She looks around curiously as she gets a feel for the grounds. There are signs of things being rebuilt. It looks like someone has been doing work in the gardens trying to update them. She has the impression they are being watched too but says nothing verbally. Instead she gives Hajime a slight gesture with one hand just in case he doesn't have that same feeling.

	He nods, one hand going to his sword hilt. Otherwise, he just moves a few feet further from her for a wider field of vision and ability to keep an eye on her, and lets her lead the way. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

They are of course being watched. How often is it that a kensai and someone they view as a samurai come this way? It's been a while.

Kayura feels an itch between her shoulder blades because she knows she is being watched. Her shoulders roll slightly because she doesn't detect a real threat so there is no reason to call her armor

They get closer to the back where the wall is. She can see where the workers have stored materials. It looks like there is some mud from the rain fall yesterday so she goes to check it out in case there's a clue of any sort just in case.

	Hajime lets her do the checking, watching her every move from where he is, just in case she gets into trouble of some sort. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	That's when a rude and crudely drawn face gets put into the mud staring up at her. Kayura blinks then steps back. "We have company. With bad art skills." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	get_medieval 2013-01-31 06:06 am UTC (link)
	He nods, stepping forward a little. When nothing further happens past that, he stops moving to keep her covered, in case something more threatening occurs. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	weakerlink 2013-01-31 06:12 am UTC (link)
	The trees rustle further down the way. It is a little like something climbing down the tree or in the tree. Kayura watches it intently. "I get the distinct impression this is more than it seems." It feels different. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	get_medieval 2013-01-31 06:16 am UTC (link)
	"Yes, likely multiple spirits." He agrees, letting her watch the tree, while he keeps his eyes on the area she's standing, amidst the materials, just in case. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I should have guessed." She touched the bag over her shoulder thoughtfully. "I have enough supplies in here for no more than five spirits." She starts to move. She doesn't notice it at first but the zipper on the back of her skirt is starting to come undone. It is just happening so slowly that she doesn't notice it. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
