Riven gave her a sad smile, almost to say that some of the things he could tell her would make her pale. This had been the truth, he didn't seem to be lying about it either to those who looked. Riven didn't care about her opinion it was little more then just that, the saying in this world was. Opinions were like butt holes and everyone had one. Riven remembered some of the things during the Age of Chaos and Hell, he wondered why they never did have an Age of Cute Fluffy bunnies. But that was pry old Blackie's doing. Peace was something that he didn't remember much of, it took him almost several years to adjust. He was almost on guard every single moment and his martial skills were above average. He let the silence become well something of a kindness, Riven could tell her something that very few could say. Every single person they knew and cherished from the time they were teens to the time adults died right in front of them. And they had to accept the fact that they couldn't do shit about it. That they were gone and that was the facts of life.

Riven had watched children die, he'd seen things on that cursed fucking place that made even his mind go a bit insane. But insanity was the only defense people had against reality there. He said something softly under his breath, it sounded like "Don't we all.." He'd said it softly, because of two things. A, she wasn't his listen to my story and let it bring tears to your eyes. He'd frankly rather not discuss watching his best friends in the world die and only being able to get lost in anger. And B, she was more then likely not interest in hearing excuses anyways. Riven was wondering when his adopted family would be making an appearance, they were coming over tonight if he remembered.

"We are almost there, shouldn't be long..If you want you can head back, I am sure your friends are concerned for your safety." Riven said softly, still wearing a sad thought on his face. He wanted to share someday with her a bit of his history, just to see her reaction and what it looked like. Grant it as often noticed he hated his past, Riven had forgotten many things. But not the painful things that lingered in his soul.

Kyron Suzu

Kyron glanced towards him with slightly narrowed eyes. Most of the time she kept her eyes towards the floor, but with that three word statement, she turned to him, wondering what he meant. As he continued on and spoke about how close they had gotten, she stopped walking and turned back towards the area in which they came. "All right, I guess I'll see yo-..." Kyron was stopped mid sentence by the strange sensation of pressure suddenly coming over her. She turned back towards Riven, but was looking passed him. She narrowed her eyes, waiting for a single sign. She opened her eyes rather wide, causing them to shine brightly a single time. She noticed a dark aura, black around Riven, but continued on to look around. Another sense of pressure came over her and she narrowed her eyes, "Something's near here..." Suddenly, from around the corner about twenty feet away from them, an extremely frightened scream echoed through the air. "COME ON!" she told him and ran forward. It only took a few seconds, but she got to the corner and looked around to see a rather large hollow attacking a family of three. The father looked to be protecting his wide and young daughter.

The Hollow was lanky and crawled around on all fours like some sort of beast, similar to that of a tiger. It had a strange tail with three prongs, yellow eyes that shined through it's triangular-like mask. It seemed almost reptilian once you got a better look at it's tail and the skin that was showing through the armor that seemed to cover his arms, legs, back, and the end of his tail. Kyron ran forward towards the family. At that point the hollow swung it's long tail around and smacked it against the father. The father flew over his family and towards a car. Kyron did not hesitate to jump in between the father and the car, causing her to be pushed back until she too hit the front window. "Ow..." she mumbled as she looked down to the man, "You all right?" The man just jumped up and attempted to run and save his family. "HEY! Um.. Damn it. WHAT IS YOUR NAME AGAIN!!?" She had heard his friends say it, but didn't pay too much attention, "Oh whatever, JUST HELP THEM!" Kyron probably should not have taken such a hard hit to protect the guy, but at this point it was way too late. The hollow once again went to attack the man's family, swinging it's large tail around. The hollow seemed to just be playing with them, using them for some sort of entertainment, likely until he got bored or hungry.

"My name is Riven Croia, the Red King..." Riven added on the last part for the hollow, to give it an idea of who he was. "Switch, Knight." Riven said softly, before putting both hands out to the right and left, here came something of Riven's gift in this form. Riven was able to give people powers, but could use them to lesser degrees. Two swords formed, except unlike those who used them normally under Riven. Victor in this case when that time so long ago was happening, Riven's swords were lit ablaze with a flame. A flame that could cleanse a hollow of all it's impurities as though it was nothing. Sending it straight along the way to the Soul Cycle, perhaps something few knew about the man. He was fast, some accounts claimed quick enough to keep up with shunpo. He did so now, performing his quickest movement. Appearing at the side of the tail thrust, his blade lit on fire came down upon it. Riven's eyes narrowed and kept their normal nature, he hadn't shown all the cards he could in this stance.

Alright he needed to act fast now before it got out of hand. She was injured and so was the guy, Riven had more or less cut through this tail more then likely. He decided to press the attack, if need be he'd show his ace in the hole. But he didn't want to if he could help it, those were the cold hard facts. Riven shot forward, vanishing for some again. Before appearing right in striking distance of the creature's chest. Using it's tail as a long ranged projectile of sorts was interesting, but predictable. He swung down the chest, bringing his sword across it. He would have to go back to Bishop after this to heal those two. Sometimes he did wonder why he never took on new people.

Kyron Suzu

Kyron heard his name and nodded. "Okay, fine!" she said and pointed towards them as she slid herself off of the front of the car, "Just go help them!" That was really all she wanted. There was no point in trying to be cool. Cool, in her opinion, was taking action when it needed to be taken. Sliding herself off the car, she held her arm across her stomach, for that was where she felt a bit of pain. She watched as he moved forward, appearing in the strike zone of the hollows tail attack. The hollow could not stop in time and had his tail cut clean off. "Not bad..." Kyron thought as Riven went on the attack and moved to strike at the hollow. It may not have been the more powerful hollow, but it did have it's own speed. With the swing of Riven's sword, it hopped backwards, similar to that of a cheetah getting away from an attack. The hollow let out a louder howl then before, causing the small child to get scared and scream out loud. The Father, seeing that Riven had interfered, went back to his wife and little girl, who were so scared that they were frozen solid.

The hollow jumped forward, bringing his armor covered claws down towards Riven, trying to strike down on his chest. This attack was also followed by another quick strike with his other claw, the hollow still moving around on all fours. At this time, something was happening. The tail that had previously been cut off was some how still being controlled by the hollow. It began to move, floating in the air and aiming towards the family of three. "Shit..." Kyron said as she began running forward. Suddenly the tail shot forward, attempting to attack the wife and child. Kyron didn't hesitate to clench her fist tightly, concentrate on a certain area of the ground about two feet away from the family. She waved her arm upwards very quickly and that same area of ground raised upwards, creating a small, five inch thick wall of pavement between the family and the tail. The tail pierced the wall and was now stuck. "Come on! Get out of there!" Kyron yelled towards him. The father got his family up and ran towards Kyron. "Th-Thank you! And your friend! Thank you!" the man said and then ran off. "Just get home!" Kyron told them and then looked back to Riven to see how he was doing against the hollow.

Riven was done talking, both swords were looking about not quite Japanese in build, however they looked more along the lines of bastard blades, one long and one short. The shorter was by far faster, he didn't even bother to acknowledge that family thanking him. Truth be told they didn't need to, he would of saved them regardless of compliments or thank yous. He observed the attack, bringing his sword up he blocked the blow. It was time to be fast again, he side stepped the next blow. Going to the left and swinging both swords, one at the head and one at the stomach. The side step was done just after it's previous strike. Riven was guessing the time as almost ripe to begin his counter attack, all he needed to do was kill this creature. Molly's angry words filled his mind, boy he remembered how pissed she normally got over him fighting. Her words were Kings like you shouldn't fight, well his response often went. Kings are men no matter what form they come in, we all must lace up and fight battles.

It seemed as though Kyron was having problems as well, his swords blessed in the King's Fire, that holy of holy flames. It could only be described as just that. Flames that burn away the darkness within. He could manage a hollow, after all he had killed them before. This was a way of life, Riven seemed like a happy clown most of the time. His mind wasn't quite back at stop just yet. Fighting made him, well not act silly since he had to be serious. Whatever came of it, would be seen here for sure.

Kyron was not getting into this battle. She had done what she needed to do when she jumped in between the father and allowed herself to take the major damage of the car. She stood there with her hand on her stomach, watching the fight, while ignoring the pain she felt. The hollow was being pushed back enough as well. It's strikes had been dodged and it was now being attacked. "HEY!" Kyron yelled when she realized something, "HOLD OF YOUR ENERGY! YOU'LL DRAW MORE IN!" That really was just a warning, but it could happen. Hollows in the area had learned to stay away most of the time. It wasn't smart to come in this area. The fact that this hollow was more beast like than anything showed that he likely wasn't smart enough to leave the area. Now that the family was completely out of the way, Kyron felt more at ease, taking in a deep breath while she watched.

The Hollow went in to strike, but both of them were dodged. He saw that Riven went to strike towards his stomach and moved, but unfortunately for the hollow, he did not see the second strike. He moved right into the path of the one that went to slice through his head and ended up making it slice right through his neck. It died instantly. "Nice moves..." Kyron said with a raised eyebrow and then chuckled, "Sorry, I couldn't help you. I'm not exactly in the best of shapes right now... Haha." Kyron forced herself to stand up straight, causing a slight pain in her back and even more within her rib cage. She had hit harder than she thought. "Ow..." she said as she took in a deep breath.

Boy she was a troublesome one to watch for, he let the swords go. They were simply gone now, along with whatever evidence of flames had once been, the hollow hadn't been a problem for him to take out. "Switch, Bishop." Having selected his healing class now he exhaled a breath. He was wearing out from the constant switches, he'd done them today alot but that was ok. "Ok, let's make sure you ok..I don't want to make your family and friends worry..with these injuries." He walked over and put a hand on the side of her head, what the female would feel now. Well it rather simple a surge of warmth and almost a feeling of pain being sent away, the injuries weren't to bad. Perhaps a broken rib from that car incident, but this girl was a toughie. She took these blows and well, this was more or less his way of being nice. "Alright, that should do it...Hopefully your feeling better, thank you for helping them and giving the advice.." He said smiling as he let his hand fall back to his side, pulling out a cigarette from his box and lighting it by tapping his index finger on the tip.

He took a drag long and released a amount of smoke into the air, this had been a fun and entertaining little adventure. But he needed some sleep if anything, his house wasn't far. Those two he'd been with were fun, he wondered if he should mention they weren't exactly life long friends. Riven had zero of those, but their were reasons and causes to that. He sat down on a bench, it seemed to be the only thing not really damaged.

Kyron watched him as he dropped his swords and they just disappeared. She leaned backwards until she felt and heard a small 'pop'. "Ow..." she said, but she felt a bit better. She heard him say something about a bishop, but wasn't sure what it meant. He walked over to her, raised his hand, and attempted to place it upon her head. "Whoa, whoa, whoa." she said as she ducked under his hand and took a step back, "Look, I don't know you well enough for you to be touchin' me. I may trust you to a degree, but no putting your hands on me, okay? That ain't how this is gonna go." Kyron tilted her head far enough to the side that another 'pop' sound could be heard from the base of her neck. She looked over to the hollow once more, watching as it disintegrated and vanished from sight in the manner that hollows do. "Well... That thing is dead..." Kyron winced a bit as she looked around. Just before the attack happened, he had told her she could go, so she assumed she still could. "So you live around here, right?" she asked him, looking back to him, "Well I'm gonna head back to the bar, help close up, and then I'll be heading home, so... I'll see you later." She held out her hand to him, wanting a friendly shake of the hands to say goodbye.

"Ah, very well then..I only intended to heal you..But yeah I live in a run down apartment, couple holes in the roof and building..But it's nice to be on my own again. " Just after saying she didn't trust him, he observed her hand and decided to take it. She would pry do something or another, he never really trusted people. He wasn't really sure up in his mind. But he took the hand anyways, he did something well he pry shouldn't of without telling her. He decided to heal her injury, he didn't need contact with the head. He found people took it easier when they were able to see his hand and feel it, besides that it was easier. So when he shook her hand, for a moment he healed what injuries she had, the warm feeling would go through her body. Just a general good feeling, he let go and slipped both hands into his pockets. A boy came up and smoke with him, but they were speaking in French. Riven finished speaking with him, he switched the dialect and language speaking very fluently. Not many kids here spoke French, but Riven knew the language along with some others. He was teaching the boy Japanese, though it was a slow process.

"Remember gotta work on your Japanese some more, your French as always is amazing..For those of us who understand it." Were Riven's last words that the female could pry hear.

Kyron smiled as he took her hand and shook his. She suddenly felt him push energy into her. Although it was warm, she had bluntly told him no. Doing this was against her wishes, and that was something she was not going to let slide. Better to teach someone a lesson the moment they do it. Feeling a strange warm feeling. She looked up to him with a bit of an angry look. As he tried to pull his hand away, she tightened her hand around his very tightly, which would usually crush a normal person's hand, but she did this to make sure he was unable to let go. Out of no where, she sent an electric shock into his hand through her own, pushing it up to his shoulder. It wouldn't of done any real damage, but it definitely was going to sting. It happened as fast as lightning as well, so there wasn't much that he'd be able to do about it unless he broke contact with her as fast as lightning. Once she was done, she let go of his hand and narrowed her eyes at him, "Next time I ask you not to do something... You shouldn't do it. Even if your intentions were good, doing things against someone's will, especially when they were very clear about what it is they wanted, can get you into a lot of trouble... Don't do it aga-..." she was cut off when a boy walked up and talked to him in a different language. It sounded along the lines of spanish or french, but she wasn't one that was familiar with things like that. Her suspicions were confirmed when he began speaking in her native tongue again. She crossed her arms along her chest and raised an eyebrow at him. "And who is this?"
