Tae stumbles away slightly, dragging his foot with him.

Previously holding the handle with both hands, Hiyori's left hand fell away to hold her side. Blood now poured steadily from an opening in her side but was slowing over the moments that followed. With her remaining free hand, the investigator gripped the handle more harshly now, whipping the Quinque back behind her to pull her back and a few feet away from the two Ghouls.

Tae huffs as his wound heals itself quickly. He stands straight and snarls, "Crap…" He charges out into the street, nearly getting run over, and jumps up onto a railing for height advantage. Even though it wasn't very much

Giving a final push from the handle of her Quinque, Hiyori hit the release button on the metal bar, causing the Rinkaku to dissipate into red vapor. Closer to the alleyway now, the woman scooped her notebook off of the ground and ran off, pushing her way past the occasional person walking on the sidewalk. As she picked up in pace, blood began pumping from her side once again, causing her pace to slow.

Tae looks over at the other Ghoul, "Should we just finish her off now? Or… Run?" He was still crouched on the railing, his fox like mask a bit skewed.

Victor stared after the woman for a moment, his head racing. "If we kill her there will be more investigators, which is worse than just one with a loose description." He said, stumbling over his words slightly as he as out of breath.

Tae coughs as his Kagune disparate and he jumps down from the railing, jogging over to the other Ghoul, "Ok? So. What now?"

Allowing his eyes to revert to their normal color after the evaporation of his Kagune, Victor turned around and scooped up the messenger bag he had been carrying. The blood that had leaked through one of the packages had since ceased, and the stain was now dry. Staring at it, he said, "I'm gonna go home, and look at the news. I'd say that if she got a good enough look at our faces, there will be something on the news." Victor paused and slung the bag over his shoulder, "Hopefully that isn't the case."

Tae was silent but he nods. Turning, he starts to walk along the street, taking off his mask. He really hoped he didn't have blood around his mouth. He had no where to go. He didn't have the money for anything. Not even the smallest stuff in the carts that venders sell.

Victor had since taken off his mask and was padding down the sidewalk, holding his mask from inside of his hoodie pockets. His jeans had a rip on the left leg from the investigator he and the other Ghoul had met, and dried blood was under the fabric. Turning off into a service station, Victor walked over to a refrigerated section full bottled coffees. His hands were still shaking as he opened one of the doors.

Tae starts to run down the street. A few on lookers muttered darkly at him but he didn't slow down

Victor scanned the shelves briefly before taking a couple of bottles of black coffee off of the refrigerated slats. He carried the bottles up to the counter, letting the clerk scan them before he paid and eventually left. The streets had become less crowded, and the bundles of people had dissipated within a matter of about half an hour.

Stumbling down the street, Hiyori finally came to the large automatic doors of the 21st ward's CCG headquarters, listening to the positive beep of the Rc Scan Gate. She walked up to the counter and slapped the notebook down on its black marble surface. The office had since closed to the public but was open to those that worked there. She turned around and plopped down in a chair, holding her side as she did so. The wound had ceased its bleeding, but still ached as it was new.

(Man. Im writing so little XD Sorry! I'll expand)
Tae slows down, stuffing his hands in his pockets. He lifts his hood over his head and keeps walking. He walks past a large cemetery the 21st CCG headquarters. He shivers slightly as he does but his pace never changes. He had no idea where he was going just had tunnel vision down the sidewalks.

(No, it's okay, type as much as you're comfortable with.)
Hiyori's eyes floated down to the ground and stayed fixed there. It was still dark and she guessed that no one would be in the building for a few more hours. By now the coffee had worn off and she was having trouble staying awake, her eyelids closing every now and then. Her Quinque case was splattered with blood on one corner and sat messily propped up against the leg of the chair she was sitting in.

Walking down the street with a clear plastic bag in one hand, Victor stared down at the ground as he walked. His legs felt wobbly as he went down the sidewalk. Occasionally, someone would give him a sideways glance and he assumed this was because of his disheveled appearance.

Tae snarls to himself. He was thinking hard as he walks down the many streets and sidewalks. Eventually he found himself at a park near the edge of a large pond.

Victor speed walked past the CCG building, not wanting to stay out any longer than he had to, especially around the ward's main building. Keeping alert for any sounds even more so now because of where he was. He wrapped the handles of the plastic bag around his hand a few more times, trying to keep it as still as possible.

Tae walks down a dark alley way and sits down in the middle. He was just behind at least three trashcans

Finally turning onto the street that his apartment complex was on, Victor jogged up the stairs and unlocked the door. He took the bag he'd been carrying and flung it onto the couch, flipping on the lights. 'At least I'm finally here…' Victor thought, plopping down on his couch and turning on the news. He reached into the light grey bag and took out a bloodied package. The bundles had taken a bit of a beating over the past few hours and were now cold.

Tae rests his head on his arms and sighs.

(Sorry for the horribly late reply!)
Finally allowing her eyes to close, Hiyori slouched in the waiting room chair in which she was sitting. She didn't care how disheveled she looked, someone would see her report in the morning and understand what had happened. Things hadn't exactly gone as she had planned, not in the least, but she still got away alive and with loose descriptions of both of them.
Victor watched as messages flashed onto the corners of the screen, trying his best to read them all in time before they cycled to something else. So far he hadn't seen anything that could count as a warning to look out for him or Tae.

Tae opens his eyes and they where back to their original, strikingly blue color. He looks up through the crack between the buildings to the starry sky.
