He frowned. "Why is Vanguard here?" There was a slight bite to his voice, having to suppress a bout of anger.

Sakuya was met with a rather interesting sight. The female tilted her head to the side, her own tail curling behind her, albeit more scaled ending with a fin. The female paused, allowing the scents to flood her senses, taking note of everything.
"May I help you," Sakuya's own voice was soft. Her blue eyes gazed steadily at the girl before her, taking note of the fox-like features, but not seeming bothered in the least by it.
Kiriti, flattened her ears, then pulled on them nervously as her orange gaze darted to Runner. "Ah… I…" She cleared her throat, small voice getting just a tad louder and confident. "I've come to apologize on behalf of my team. To both the owner of this inn and to Runner." She glanced back at Runner, then away. "And to offer any help needed to repair what was damaged." She bowed at the waist, fluffy tail curling around her legs. "Forgive us. We brought the fight to your home with no regard for the consequences. And to you, Runner." Her head bowed even lower. "We never should have treated you in such a way. You are just as innocent in all this as the air Agdrin breaths."
"Please…all I ask is for you to stop shadowing me. I'd like to live the rest of my life in peace and forget who raised me. But, I'm guessing that this is falling on deaf ears, yeah?" he asked with a bitter smile.
Sakuya stepped to the side, allowing the girl, if she chose, to enter the building. The female frowned, "Hydrox is currently unable to be spoken to, having suffered injuries from the fight between your people, which in turn drew in only 3 of the most powerful doom dragons to exist."
For once, the usual soft and gentle voice Sakuya held actually seemed to hold a hint of sarcasm, a rare thing for her.
Kiriti's ears twitched as she stood up straight. "If that is your request, then we shall honor it." She bit her lip. "But I cannot promise you will be completely ignored. You are the son of our arch enemy. It is only reasonable to keep tabs on you every so often to make sure this universe stays relatively safe." Her voice grew quieter and quieter the more she spoke, ears flattening as she hugged her tail.
She turned to the female. "Again, I apologize. If you'd allow me… I can heal him. That is my role."
"Safe? How safe have I been? For all I know, your presence is the thing leading him to me."
Kiriti winced and stepped back at his outburst. "I understand what you are saying. We will not bother you if you so wish to be left alone. But please understand our situation in return."
"I'm not gonna understand shit. Stay away. Simple as that. If you have a problem with it, tell Cin to come down here and we'll settle it, ya dig?"
Sakuya shook her head, then went still. Her blue eyes glowed, hardening, "Your people have done enough in our realm."
The woman suddenly froze, eyes glancing to the side, looking towards one of the windows. A window that had once been covered, was now open, revealing a pair of rather strange looking beasts. Their heads didn't seem 'animal' at all, seeming more to be giant gemstones, red and green. The gemstones moved, seeming to look at one another, then back inside.
"Tempus and Fatum…" Sakuya's voice had seemed to change, shaking, her head bowing deeply, keeping her gaze down, "Loyal servants to the Goddess of Time and Destiny…"
Kiriti's shrunk back, cowering. "Very well…" she said softly, then turned into a large white and black fox in a flash of light and took off. Tears falling on the dirt turned into small, beautiful, alien flowers.
He jumped up and down, pulling his knees to his chest each time. "OOOOOOO, I'm gonna light shit on fire if I don't calm down."
(Is Cin gonna pop in or no?
"Shall I clear them from this timeline?"
A loud sigh, now a pair humans standing in place of where the creatures once stood, only now inside. One was completely dressed in white, the other in black. The one in black had swirling bright red eyes, the one in white a stunning shade of pink. Neither one seemed to hold a hint of expression.
"Fatum, it is not in our hands whether we get to cut any of their lives short."
The one in black seemed to roll their eyes, looking back forward, "Oh c'mon, you know the Goddess isn't at all pleased, sure she wouldn't mind if we cleared up this mess."
Sakuya was the one to quickly step in as Runner and the fox-like female had their talk. The female kept her head bowed, eyes never meeting their own, "Tempus and Fatum, my apologies…"
"Yea, yea, please be silent Sakuya. We already know what had happened, saw most of it."
"Must you always be so rude Fatum?"
The one in black looked over to the white, "As much as you dislike it, sometimes 'sweet words' don't get their point across."
Tempus, the white one, turned their light pink gaze to the 'visitors' of their realm. They watched as he seemed to jump up and down, blinking a bit. They then turned to look towards their partner, then back to the jumping Runner.
((Nah. She's still bleeding out from when her sister stabbed her to get her to get outta rage mode
He turned to look at the people, stopping his temper tantrum. "Who the fu-" he cut himself short, seeing Sakuya's face.
((Gotcha. Anyone gonna come in retaliation for his bullshit?
The one in black rested a hand on what appeared to be the hilt of a uniquely designed dagger handle, but before they could pull said weapon out, the white one moved their own hand, bringing it in front.
"So, you are this 'Runner'? Seems you and several others from your world have caused quite a stir."
"That's it," The one in black snapped, "They caused more than a 'stir'. Dragons back home were starting to get restless, Hell, the Goddess of War was getting ready to come out herself! We all know how that would go! The rest of them were ready to call for Scourge to be sent!"
Another movement by the one in white silenced their partner, eyes never leaving Runner, "Fatum really doesn't know when to keep their mouth shut…Anyways, yes, we have been sent to investigate the disturbance, to maybe put the rest of the gods and goddesses at ease for the time being."
Sakuya remained in a submissive state, not saying a word. Her tail had curled between her legs, keeping her head low, eyes trained on the ground.
"I was attacked, and people that should've minded their damn business came and retaliated. I apologize on behalf for everyone involved." He was surprisingly polite, despite clearly being pissed beyond belief. "I am aware of the ruckus it has created, but it wasn't my fault that a few others decided to come and play."
((Nope. He said stay away, so they'll stay away. Doesn't mean they won't occasionally see what he's up to if they feel like he's causing trouble. They have four Seers on their team, so they don't necessarily have to show up to watch him
((It's not gonna be pretty, lmao. No killing, I swear, but maybe a maim or two
((As long as he doesn't threaten to destroy the universe, he's good
((He's gucci, then
((lol
Tempus listened, seemingly intent on every word Runner said, as if trying to pick out any chance of a lie, should there had been one. The figure in white finally nodded, once again raising their hand in front their partner, keeping them silent, " Hm…I can see you are telling the truth…"
"Like he'd be able to keep it from us," came the growl of Fatum.
Tempus ignored their partner, "I suppose to be expected, being thrown into a new world without any idea of it. No matter…it just leaves a mess for us and the rest of the servants to clean up in the end."
Fatum rolled their eyes, "Yea, which in turn can be a pain in the ass. You know how strict our goddess is with timelines…last time someone decided to mess it up, Quietus himself was sent to deal with that mistake."
"And you know we aren't allowed to talk about that to mortals," Tempus responded, still remaining completely calm unlike their hot-blooded partner, "I suppose for now, we shall let the mishaps slide…though don't be surprised should someone be sent to keep an eye on you."
((OOC: Everyone and everything is just gonna watch Runner like a hawk, nothing to worry about lol))
