"The matter..." Echo muttered to Holly, still thinking. She looked around when she heard an explosion, then saw Yukino and dove behind the couch she and Holly slept on, cowering behind it.

Yukino simply nodded toward Yeul, then looked at Echo dive behind the couch. She scoffs for a moment, then heads outside. [color=bb66bb] If we've been attacked then... is our original enemy making a move now? [/color] She hops up onto a rooftop and starts bounding over rooftops toward the building Yukimaru showed her before.

As Rex makes it over toward Bryce's room, he sighs and peeks in to see if Bryce was alright. [color=008888] "You're alive right, cowboy? Don't get all mad science-y on us." [/color]

Holly raised her eyebrow a little and look over the sofa to see Echo cowering. "What are you hiding for? are we playing hide and seek?" Holly asked Echo, Hearing the explosion her eyes lit up. "That sssounded like a beauty!" She said happily.
Rozalin arrived at Bryce's room shortly after Rex did. "My Goodness! What happened here?" She exclaimed with worry as she looked over the scene to try and figure out what had happened.

Yukimaru simply continued to perform surveillance on the military base, as she had been doing nearly all day.

"Fair enough. But in my world view, there is good and evil. A man that orders the bombing of innocents commits evil, while pilots that refuse that order are good. Arbitrary values, perhaps, but ones that calm me."

Bryce comes rolling out of the room, clutching his face. "SHIT, THAT STINGS LIKE A MOTHER! Someone help me yank this shrapnel out of my face?" Bryce asked them, removing his hands to reveal a bloodied face.

Black kept making her way back to the inn.

Holly got forcefully pulled under by Echo. "Ssso we are playing hide and seek!" She said with a smile to Echo, then hid under the sofa. "Sssso who'sss ssseeking?" She thought out loud.

Rex just sighs and moves to hold Bryce down to keep him from rolling around. He looks toward Roz with his lazy grey eyes. [color=008888] "Uh... Think this is your area of profession here, Princess." [/color]

Yukino continues to traverse the rooftops until she lands in the building Yukimaru showed her in. She lands with a slight -thud!- as she walks over toward the snow ninja, looking out the window to see if anything major was happening.

"But what drives the man to order the bombing? What does he gain? Money? Power? Revenge? Is it warfare? And why do the pilots refuse? To satisfy some moral superiority they believe they have? To stick to a superior? To betray their obligations and turn traitor? Cowardice?" Majeh asks, then turns to look the commander in the eye.
"Nothing is simply or that straightforward. To pretend otherwise is not a virtue, but escapism. You intentionally blind yourself."

Rozalin winced slightly in revulsion upon seeing Bryce's bloody, shrapnel filled face. As she fished through her bag to find the supplies she'd need to help, she said to Bryce, "I shall do what I can. But what exactly happened? Are we under attack right now?"
[hr]
Yukimaru quickly turned around and hopped up after hearing Yukino land, but was relieved to see who it was and went back to sitting and watching the base. [color=01B7FF]"Nothing much has happened yet, zam."[/color] She said to the fox-girl, anticipating what she might be wondering.

"G-gone now?" Echo asked as she peeked above the couch. "Hide and seek..." she muttered in response to Holly, mostly because she had too.
"Good and bad are integers in my head, for my personal opinions. To me, bombing civilians is never acceptable, and refusing that order is fine, no matter the reason. Therefore, I assign the values in my head. Now, if someone tried to force a universal set of good and bad, that would be a bad idea."

"Sorry, I was testing out the bomb I was planning to sneak into the military base. I screwed up, and it popped in my face. I didn't think there'd be that much shrapnel. Do your best, Roz'ika. Doubt you'd make it worse, somehow." He winced but held steady.

"Yes. You do not have to hide anymore." Yeul said to Echo, offering a hand to get up.
Hearing no further explosions, or any other sounds that could be mistaken for combat, Caius looked back to Yeul. It is safe to assume that child will not be so quick to anger the assasin from now on. he thought, notin Echo's fear.

"Is it unacceptable to bomb civilians to save lives? What about to make the world a better place? For that matter, what constitutes making the world a better place? Once you identify one thing as good or evil, YOU are forcing in a universal set of good and evil." Majeh retorts.
"That being said, I wouldn't allow innocents to be killed if I could help it. But I wouldn't portray myself as some sort of White Knight or hero."
He jumps off the wall to the ground below. "Anyway, I've languished here long enough. I doubt you'll be attacked by anything else tonight." He says as he starts to walk off.

Rozalin sighed as she kneeled down next to Bryce after finding the supplies she'd need in her bag. "I thank you for the assistance." She said to Rex. She then began removing the bits of metal from Bryce's face with a pair of forceps, then applied antiseptic to each wound as she did. "You need to be more careful. What if this had killed you?" She said to Bryce as she finished and started wrapping his wounds, not wanting to tempt him to speak during the procedure.
Black lent herself outside against the wall. "[sub]another day of hiding it would seem..." She muttered to herself.
