The Shinobi and the Shinigami(closed with AvaAssassin)

Haru followed her out and down to the stairs. He stayed silent, though the image of the dragon encircling the god of death stayed in his mind.

Once they reached the crack in the side of the mountain she glanced at him through her mask. "Sayōnara (Goodbye.)" She said before exiting the crack and disappearing into the forest.

Haru growled and banged his fist against the stone. He'd wanted to talk to her more. To tell her of his vision. If it was as he thought, then they would meet again. So he had nothing to fear.

Yano returned to her small little cabin. She smiled as she walked inside and took her mask off finally. She had been so tired that she changed into something more conferable. She quickly got ready for bed and went to sleep but when she woke up something was wrong. She slowly got up and dressed in her shinigami gear before going outside to cautiously look around.

Haru also had sensed something wrong that next morning and had left the safety of the monastery to have a look around. He kept to the shadows and stayed off the ground in the trees. He had enough training to the point where he could move in the trees without rustling branches.

Yano's home had been attacked by templars. Yuno was fighting but there were so many at one time. She had been caught on the ground also and wasn't the best at close hand to hand fighting. She felt a blade bite into her side as she turned, plunging a blade into her attackers head. She could feel blood trickling down her side but she continued to fight. Another blade went into her shoulder.

Then they heard a strong Japanese male voice come from over head. A light exploded through the air and the Templars were caught off guard by the emerald green Japanese dragon that curled itself around Yano protectively. It attacked any that got too close while Shurikens and kunai knives dug into her attackers.

Yuno was kneeling on the ground as she looked up at where he was. She hadn't expected him to come to her rescue and wasn't sure how she felt about it. She was thankful but she wasn't use to anyone coming to save her.

Once the last templar was dead, the dragon vanished and Haru dropped down onto the ground. He studied her for a moment before he offered her a hand. He wanted to help.

She took his hand and allowed him to help her up. Once she was up she walked back towards the small cabin and went inside. They had trashed the place. She frowned and sighed as she began trying to clean up, wincing as she did.

Haru stepped into the house for a moment before he began helping her silently. This was his code. Whoever was in need of help, he would help. Regardless if they were a Shinigami or not.

Yano stopped and gave him a questioning look. She sighed as she looked at the wound in her side and the one in her shoulder. She muttered something before taking her mask off as she began to remove some of her armor to look at her wounds. She really didn't care much that he would see her face or not.

Haru looked her up and down for a moment before he continued to pick things up and set them on tables and counters. However, once he was done, he turned and asked if he couldn't look at her wounds.

Yano sighed and gave him an annoyed look before nodding. "Anata ga shitai baai. (If you wish to.)" She said as she took a seat on her small bed.

Haru looked at the wounds for a moment before he began to set about healing them. He gave her an herbal mixture and began to rub some sort of salve onto the wounds before he wrapped them tight.

Yano made no sign of pain as he treated her wound. She just sat there. Once he was done she sighed and looked at her home. Those bastards would pay for this...

Haru looked around for a moment. The destruction and upturned coffee table reminded him of when the Templars killed his family and burned their monastery to the ground and his fist clenched.

Arigatōgozaimashita. (Thank you.)" She said after a long moment of silence before she got up and flipped the coffee table back over before going to get her broom. She had a lot of cleaning up to do before she figured out what she was going to do. She would not be frightened off from her home... Not again..

"Dōitashimashite."(You're welcome) Haru said with a small nod and then he asked if she needed anything else.

Anata ga shitai baai wa arimasen, anata ga iku koto ga dekimasu... (No, you can go if you want...)" She answered without ever looking up at him

"Honkidesu ka?(You sure) Haru asked, his voice soft. He didn't want to leave her like this.

Anata wa nani o yatte iru koto wa, watashi wa monku o iwanai anata o oidasu ga, watashi wa koko de anata o iji shimasen... Anata shidaidesu... (What you do is up to you... I won't kick you out but I won't keep you here...)" She said as she stood up and continued to tighten her home up a little more.

Haru turned toward the door and closed his eyes with a couple of fingers in front of his lips. He muttered something quietly and cast his fingers toward the door. What appeared to be a tiny Japanese dragon slithered from around his arm toward the door and it sat in a tree with its eyes peeled open. It was looking for anymore Templars and would alert Haru if there was any more coming. He turned toward Yano and started helping her tidy up again.

She sighed as leaned agenst the wall once her home had been cleaned up and anything broken thrown away. "Anata wa yūshoku no tame ni taizai shimasu ka? (Would you like to stay for dinner?)" She asked before pushing off the wall. She moved through the small house and into the small kitchen area where her freezer was.

"Tashikani."(Sure) Haru grinned and began to look around for a brief moment. He'd never seen a house like this before. He was used to the traditional look and feel of the monastery.
