After warming up with a morning workout, Auron and Koujurou left for their mission, this time in a colder country called Russia. His red coat helped keep him warm in the chilled air.

"What's a Faberge egg?" Auron asked as he looked over the mission notes.

Auron ran to try to catch up to it but it made a leap to another building to try to lick its wounds. He stopped in his tracks. We'll have to go down the stairs and try to get up that building.

[forbearanced]

There is not enough time.

Kojuro paused there. He took a moment out to gauge the distance between the building they were on and the next one. The ones further out seemed to be close enough as well.

When he spoke again, his voice was full of quiet resolve.

We must jump.

[nofarplaneyet]

Did he just hear that right?

Are you insane? I can't jump that far! I'm a swordsman, not a blitzplayer! I don't have that kind of agility!

[forbearanced]

You do now.

Kojuro was certain of it. Neither of them would have been able to accomplish such a feat on their own, but they were partners now, and their resonance was strong.

[nofarplaneyet]

Auron watched the kishin egg mewling on the other roof. He saw the distance between them. If this didn't work, at the very least he'd break his legs. But if it was possible...

He took a few strides back to get running room. If I kill myself, I'll try to throw you somewhere safe.

[forbearanced]

Kojuro only smiled.

There will be no need for that.

In the next moment, he was sending a boost of power through their resonance. He did not plan on overwhelming the other man; he simply knew that his Meister could handle it, and needed the strength.

[nofarplaneyet]

Auron exhaled sharply, took a deep breath and sprinted for the edge. He grabbed onto the resonance as though it were an extra blade for combat. He jumped and Auron's thoughts were "pleasedon'tbreakmylegspleasedon'tbreakmylegs."

The landing on the next roof didn't break his legs but was rather rough. He knew he'd have to treat some kind of knee burn after this was over.

[forbearanced]

Practice makes perfect, Auron.

Kojuro's tone was jovial; he was very, very pleased, and also a bit relieved that everything had gone smoothly.

The kishin egg, however, was not. After a moment of shock, it attempted to rush at them again.

Sorry about the delay!

[nofarplaneyet]

Auron had enough time to get to his feet, lift up his sword and swipe the kishin egg across the face. It screeched in pain, wailing in agony.

He had to block one flailing limb with the sword. The Soul Armor protected them from injury but it they'd definitely feel bruised later on.

It's totally all right. /hugs tight ♥

[forbearanced]

Kojuro, in the meantime, monitored the proceedings carefully, even as Auron swung him around. The battle would be over soon, from the looks of it. Their opponent was weakening.

I might need a new car. D:

[nofarplaneyet]

It became a dance to weave in and around the monster's attacks and swipes. As soon as Auron found an opening, he took it, slicing into the kishin egg's unprotected neck.

oh no. ;;

[forbearanced]

And Kojuro's blade went right through the neck; contact from the Black Dragon sent fatal electric shocks through the rest of the kishin's body. Its death shriek was horrific, but short.

Moments later, it was shifting and melting away, leaving nothing behind save its soul.

Kojuro returned to his human form then, and glanced towards Auron.

"You are not injured, I hope?"

He had not picked up on any, at any rate. His healing ability had probably already swept away the ache that would have resulted from their landing.

Sucks but on the other hand, I would have to get one eventually

[nofarplaneyet]

"Nothing permanent. Just that landing on my knees was...hunh." Well they had been hurting and might still be a little roughed up. But they didn't hurt to bend.

He pointed at his partner. "We're taking the stairs this time."

that is true. /squishes anyway! oh, let's wrap this up here!

[forbearanced]

That only made Kojuro chuckle. He nodded, and moved to eat the soul before turning back to Auron.

"Very well. Let us go."
