Characters: Shibuya Yuuri + Teresa
Location: Finland
Rating: G
Time: Feb 7th
Description: Teresa and Yuuri head back out to Finland in an attempt to take out the Kishin Egg they'd been forced to retreat from weeks before.

They had been lucky this time, and not as rash as they'd been their previous visit to the area. Instead of taking on their target head-on, the pair had been far more cautious. It had taken them a little time to discover one of the Kishin Eggs that had chased them the last time, and despite Yuuri's attempt to head in there and stop the threat, they'd sat back an observed as Teresa had suggested.

The patience had paid off, and soon enough the paid had gone in to take the Kishin Egg out once they'd determined that there were no others around in hiding. It hadn't been too difficult for them, thankfully, and Teresa narrowly dodged a number of serious attacks before eventually defeating the Kishin Egg. Glad that there was nothing else in the area that could hurt either of them (especially threaten Teresa), Yuuri transformed himself out of his Weapon form before stretching up above his head to pop his back.

"Aaa that's much better," he contently muttered before swinging his arms around to loosen the muscles. Reaching out to take the soul, he glanced back around to peer up at Teresa with a smile. "It was much easier this time without all the other ones around."

Yuuri paused when she admitted that to him, and he felt his heart clench at the thought. He hoped that didn't mean that something had happened to Clare, and just that maybe she felt that way because she was here while everyone else she knew was back in her own world.

"Teresa..." he trailed off in the next moment as he glanced at her with both sympathy and concern. "Maybe you'll find something to live for here?" Yuuri didn't want her to think that there could never be anything special in her life again, and he wondered if maybe all she needed was for someone to show her?

Making his way through the forest, he partially glanced back to regard Teresa when he'd regained control over his emotions. "Mmm that's right. We can head back and grab something to eat."

Teresa hadn't thought much about finding a reason to live here. She didn't really understand this world to begin with, but she had been drawn here as a request for help. While she still didn't like humans all that much, she had skills which were of no use to anyone if she didn't use them. Her inability to just walk away limited what she could do, and the battles that she fought were interesting enough.

"Perhaps in time, but until then, I use what skills I have," she remarked with a small shrug of her shoulders. If BREW could bring her here, who was to say it wouldn't drag other warriors?

Nodding her head, she didn't mind going back and watching him eat. She wasn't certain if it was worth eating given how little it was indicated "And then you will head to the clinic after that?"

He nodded his head at that. Yuuri would be fully supportive of Teresa's decisions, and would remain by her side no matter what she did... well... unless that was hurting the innocent, but he knew that she'd never do that without reason.

"We'll see what time we get back. I might just go to bed if it's too late," Yuuri said as he continued walking. He was starting to get a little tired, and he didn't want to risk making any type of mistake at the clinic.

She glanced up at the sky from between the branches of the trees. It didn't seem so late here, but they were apparently in a different aspect of the world entirely. It was probably close to night given how long they had spent out here.

No matter his decision, she would make the appropriate arrangements for her time. "Do as you please," she murmured as she continued to follow him.

Yuuri didn't say anything further, but simply continued to walk through the forest while humming happily to himself. There was still quite a distance for them to travel until they got to the mirror, but he was more than happy to spend this time with her. After all, he had to think up of other ways to try and show her that she can find new things that were worth living for here.

It was with that in mind that the young Maou continued on.
