She didn't know why she was even here.

She didn't belong in a place like this, heck, every time she used to come to one of these places Atsuko would be the one dragging her along. Yet, here she was, standing in the middle of the place looking like a forlorn puppy, out of place and out of money. "Oh this is retarded." She muttered to herself, glancing about her surroundings, "The fuck am I meant to do here?"

Crouching, she adjusted the buckles upon her boots and simply scowled. Why had she even come here in the first place? Wasn't like her sister was going to miraculously return from the dead now, was it? Nor would the arse Reno. Both of them had outright abandoned her, getting their arses killed. Atsuko knew the dangers of being with a psycho like Tetsuya, but she hadn't listened to her warnings. Hadn't bothered to take heed when it mattered, and she'd been killed. Tetsuya's brother had let her die!

Growling, to herself, she stood up; the hem of her jacket falling to her ankles; her eyes sweeping over the people. Most tended to move away from her, as though she were some form of disease, which she guessed they could be right. She didn't exactly give off an openly firnedly aura. Not like she used to.

"Miss, did you need help?"

Flicking her eyes to the speaker, she simply arched an eyebrow, "We all need help at some point in our life, it's a matter of whether or not we choose it." Smirking, she simply shrugged and proceeded to walk away. All her life she'd relied on Atsuko for help, she'd been her support through everything; given what both had lived through, had both achieved, it was always Atsuko and Yukiko. They went everywhere. But since her death, and Reno's, she'd learned that life was simply meaningless. It was a thing that could easily be disposed of, could easily be ruined.

Glancing into various shop windows, Yukiko merely felt anger. Atsuko would always be there, would be the one helping her choose things to buy, but now she was gone. And Yukiko was left to fend for herself, left to do everything on her own; as if destiny had hand-picked her. She'd lost all of her friends, her family, everything. She truly was alone.

Stopping outside of one window, she pressed her hands against the cool glass; her eyes watching the shop-keeper set about his daily duties, the glimmer of the blades shining at her. She used to craft weapons, before Reno had died, it'd been her one true joy. But she didn't do it anymore, she didn't have a reason to. "Man, this is fucked." Pushing herself away from the window, she continued along her way, her aimless wandering proving nothing. Just that she seemed to have no direction in life; no job, no nothing. She just... wandered.

"Oh man~! This is getting a bit boring!"

Those few words escaped his lips as the air quickly turned to fog. It was a bit colder out now since the fall had come. Leaves began to fall with the passing of the crisp air. Finally, his favorite time of the year had arrived, and he had absolutely no clue as to why it was his favorite either. Possibly because of the Air. He was a wind elemental after all, and Usually water and wind meant in the making of Ice. The seasons only made things a bit easier for Elementals.

It had been awhile since Jurusai had been down this way. It had been awhile since he had been anywhere really. He had a nice little job, making quit a bit of money and hour, and house for two which was good considering he was the only one living there. It was kind of boring living alone really... No one to talk to. No pets to play with. Television was pretty useless... He had really no choice but to get out an socialize with the world.

This was a getting to be a bit annoying now. All he was able to do is wander the streets picking up random objects here and there. It was always so boring anymore. Of course he would head out to a rave club but those usually meant for trouble. Fights, Drugs, and loads and loads of morons that just wanted to get in your bed and leave the next day. That wasn't what he was looking for. Not a one night stand but a full relationship.

"Grah! Why I gotta be picky...? Anyways! It's getting cold..."

After that he quickly picked up his pace heading into the nearest clothing store and coming back out moments later after buying a white hoodie, and practically running into another person that seemed to be in a bit of a bad mood. All he could hear from her before he dumped into her was "Man this is fucked." before he fell on his ass and dropped his change, and looking upwards at her.

"Uhh, Sorry about that!"

He said, jumping upwards and brushing the dirt off himself and looking towards her and shaking his head, holding his hand out to her.

"My name is Jurusai bye the way."

She felt him collide with her, and she stumbled back; which only served to irritate her further. This was why she rarely came out of the safety of her own home, because it meant dealing with the hum-drum lives of moronic nitwits. She could remember a time when she couldn't care-less about them, where she'd openly start chatting with them and sit down for coffee's. But not anymore. Now she simply ignored them, continued on her way, and easily paved her way through life.

She'd been doing that for over six hundred years. She'd had enough dealing with her own emotions, had enough with putting up with people's problems. She'd listened when the dark words had whispered in her ear; had succumbed to the call of Chaos. Not that she followed the evil bitch anyway, she just knew her values were right. She was alone in this world, alone and she would never find her happiness again. She had it once, and the Mother had torn it away from her.

Dusting herself off, she allowed her gaze to fall upon him; the amber of her eyes narrowed slightly, a look of irritation written upon her face. Ordinarily she'd offer to help him up, but that was the old Yukiko. This one was the new and improved upgrade, the one who liked to keep to herself as much as what she could. When he'd jumped up, she figured he was okay and simply turned her back to him, beginning to walk away once more.

But he'd spoken to her.

"For fucks sake..." she groaned, "Why me?" Turning around, she simply arched an eyebrow at him, letting her gaze rake over him. Least he had a friendly sort of appearance, that was an added bonus. Pulling her jacket about herself, the cold biting at her flesh, she smirked. "Yukiko." She uttered, "Perhaps you should watch where you're going next time, hm?" Shrugging, she added, "You wouldn't by chance know where the nearest liqour shop is?"

She needed a drink after this, people simply irritated her.

The electric purple eye's silently fell to the ground after hearing her muttering and groaning. People on the streets still seemed to be kinda uptight. It wasn't like he could blame her though. Some stranger comes billowing out the door and runs smack dab into you, you'd kind of get irritated to. Well. At least she wasn't so flirty with him, so that was a plus side to this.

"Nice to meet ya, Yukiko and the liquor store would be ummm~! ..."

He paused for a moment his biting the back of his index finger thinking silently to himself. He hadn't had a drink in a loooooong time, so trying to remember where it was now was a bit difficult. A large breath was drawn in and exhaled, the purple hues watching the fog come from his nose before speaking.

"It would be! West... Might as well just show you. I suck at giving directions..."

He gave a quick sigh and dropped his head so his face was towards the ground. After turning around he placed his hood over head head shielding the cold from his face and ears and began walking towards the liquor store. This was sure to prove to be interesting. Jurusai was probably going to end up buying himself some liquor as well and that... Probably wasn't the best idea...

Nice to meet her? That was something she'd grown un-accustomed to in the centuries since Reno and Atsuko's death. She arched an eyebrow as he appeared to be thinking, it wasn't that had surely... all he had to do was tell her where it was and she'd go find it. She was always good at tracking things like that down, she seemed to have liqour-dar. A habit she'd picked up along the course of her travels, a habit of which she seemed to cling to even in her most darkest times.

"West?" She remarked, resisting the urge to smack her face. Of all the luck, she got landed with the dimwit with no sense of direction. Actually, it reminded her of someone she once knew; which she struggled to push out of her memory. It was someone she didn't really want to think about, because it would only serve to irritate her further.

"Um, you really... no. You don't have to show me." She didn't like the idea of actually socialising with someone, that'd mean she'd have to talk to them. (And she wasn't exactly a people person anymore.) She could just easily find it herself, he'd said west so she could simply head in that direction and pray she found it, or someone that would actually know. Not that she minded wandering around aimlessly for hours, she liked her own alone time.

"Very well." She muttered, regretting her decision almost instantly, "Lead the way." Before I regret this decision. Even though she already had.
