Sukina ran home from the Nexus to Celeste's Temple. It was from one relative safety to another that she ran, but no one knew how to get to their world unless they were allowed to by the Keys, and right now the Keys were listening to her. The Four Elemental Mistresses of her side of the Universe were also Keys, and they safeguarded the security of her universe against others like Captain America.
Once she was in the Temple, she began clipping out orders. Ailsa, the woman who served her sister, appeared almost immediately when she called out for her. She gave the older woman her orders in a clear voice, shaky though she was over the safety of her siblings.
"Send six Skinheads to retrieve my siblings from Captain America's world right now. Tell them I'll brook no delays. Prepare the Healing Chambers for them. If they can hit the military bases, even better. Make sure that they cause a little havoc before they leave if they can, but priority is to retrieve the Rikan and the Kishan. They must not come to harm! Is that understood?"
"Crystal, my Liege. Is there anything more?" Ailsa was efficient in her duties.
Sukina shook her head. Her golden hair fell past her shoulders, framing her face in an angelic halo, but the child had more than enough strength and wisdom to be a demon at times. She had killed for her siblings and she would do so again. As they would for. Choices made cannot be undone.
"I'll be at the Kyoto Penthouse. When they get here, let me know." She walked away, using another portal home, to where she would get rid of her worries through cooking. She'd promised brownies to the Sages, and if there was time, she'd make tiramisu as well, though she was not that sure of the recipe.
She was not going to spend her one week holiday worrying. With that thought, she stopped by the temple where Kalinka and Jadeite had stayed, picking up her godson and her sister's goddaughter. They were happy to follow her home and help her with the cooking. It wasn't long before she realised that she was out of eggs, and telling the children to stay in, she lowered the wards to leave the house.
That was when they struck.

*Pats the girl on her head after tying them up* Be a good little Ninjen and tell your 'Kaa-san what you saw here, alright? *Grins as the child tries to say something, muffled that she is*

After ten minutes, the elevator comes up again, and the children try to think of some way to warn her*

*Moves back as she swings at him, also silent*
August 3 2005, 00:16:41 UTC 6 years ago
Baka no kitsune!

*Throws his head back just as she strikes out at him, a bit of his hair getting cut off from the blade. Muttering under his breath, he drew out his weapons, not about to let her get away*
Ninjen bitch.

Komarasu was your name, wasn't it? What do you want me for?
August 3 2005, 01:30:32 UTC 6 years ago
*Suddenly moves and is behind the young woman, grabbing her by the neck and holding her around the waist, keeping her hands close to his body*
Rielle No Hime must return home.

*Looks at the struggling Sukina and remembers that she's got a very strong talent when it comes to manipulating chi* Will you come quietly, if we show you that they are safe?
Rasu!
Shut up, cub! *Looks at the female who's gone quiet* Will you?

*Mutters and grumbles as he reveals the two children hidden in a cupboard from an angle that they can see clearly. After making sure that she's not going to put up a struggle, they vanish like youkai do into their own base with their hostage*
