Susumu wandered the streets, watchful.

He did not know what do do or to expect...Dejanirah's disapearance make him anxious

His wanderings would not be rewarded until Miriam would not find him.

"Sri Soosoom, she's home."

She gripped his hand and pulled him away from the crowd, toward the back alley from which they could reach the fig courtyard.

Miriam surprised him but he would not question her now. The Fortunes seemed to have finally smiled on him and he would not question their gift.

He followed in all haste, hoping Dejanirah was well.

Dejanirah was sitting on the bench where she had been laughing so often. But now her gaze was empty and her face twisted by a grimace of apprehension and anxiety.

Susumu stopped and turned his head towards Miriam. For a second he searched for some answer to this situation in her eyes for he could not find it on his own...

He then turned toward Dejanirah and walked toward her. Rather then sitting on the bench, he put a knee down before her and searched for her gaze

''Lady Dejanirah...how are you?''

She looked at him, fright and apprehension still in her eyes.

"I don't know how to answer to this, Sri. You brought me to a place with the foulest demon living in it and asked me to stay there. I would like to give you the benefit of the doubt about this but my reason screams not to do it."

Susumu's visage revealed only confusion

''Demon?'' he thought for a moment ''The tiger you mean? Is that the demon you speak of?''

"You won't fool me!" She hissed, rising and taking steps back. "You told me yourself about your time in the Kingdoms, how can you not know!"

Shock was visible in the captain's face. He stood up slowly as not to unnerve the Ra'Shari more

''Yes I sailed to the Kingdoms...but only a few of the port cities for trade. I have learned a few things but only so much as drunk indvidi sailors can teach''

He passed a hand in his hair, trying to remember anything about tigers

''Listen...when you ran out of the room I charged in with pistol drawn. Would I have done that if I knew about, or worked with, any tiger-demons?''

"I don't know! I don't know! It can be anywhere now! I saw him, what chance there is he's not after me?" She burst into a terrified sob, her fingers clenching on her jambiya.

Susumu did not know what to say...he was not as gifted with words like Wataru or Anzai.

But he could make an offer

''My first offer is still open...You and you sister can lodge on the Walrus the day after tomorrow and leave with us.''

She ran up to him and gripped his jaw, gazing into his eyes for the slightest sign of insincerity. "Then this is what we'll do! I don't want to live on an island where a greater rakshasa is on the loose!" She kissed him without passion, aggressively, as if in result of not knowing what else to do, but then clung to him nonetheless, pulling his head lower with the grasp slipping to the neck. "One condition. Miriam and I will ward your ship so it is less likely it will sneak on it. And you'll take it off the shore for the night so it could only be reached by boat you can see approaching."

This was unexpected, even for him. He blinked in stupor after the kiss but recognised it for what it was: the product of abject terror.

He put his hands on her shoulders and nodded.

''A meager price to pay for both of your safety...But I'll likely be heading for battle on the morrow against another type of demon.''

He reached into his pocket and drew two jade pendants

''The tears of lady sun can ward from some of their corruption if wore against the skin''

"If you take care of us, you take care of us, Sri Soosoom. No excuses. Every day here without precaution is inviting terrible death upon us. I've taken the risk of returning for my sister, but if don't do whatever it takes to take us out of here, we'll try on our own." And she kissed him again, this time as if trying to resolve some question the first peck had posed. But she wouldn't remain long by him, receiving a blow from her sister, followed by a pull on the hair and further beating. Miriam was shouting something in Ra'Shari what sounded like terrible swearing. Dejanirah fought back, too unhinged to hold back. A blink later sisters stopped even pulling punches.

Susumu frowned

He knew that it was not the wisest course of action but he stepped in between the sisters. Likely receiving a few blows in the process. Still, he held toward each of them with a pendant in each one.

''I will do all I can, you both have my word. I'll start by giving you these...''

At the sight of foreign gems, both stopped, then looked awkwardly at each other, then on Susumu, and grabbed the pendants, putting them on immediately. Then they exchanged a few quick sentences in Ra'Shari. After that, Miriam turned toward him.

"We've agreed fighting over you is silly. So none of us will be taking you until further notice. In dire times my sister and I understand the need for self-restraint."

He arched an eyebrow...he really had not expected them to fight over him, especially since they seemed strong and independent: That seemed plucked right out of some fancyful tale of some tavern drunk.

But he won't question it for now, maybe that was a Ra'Shari thing?

''Ahem...yes'' he was getting embarassed by this

''Should we proceed now?''

"We go back, then report at your ship. Stay on guard, Sri Soosoom."

And the both scurried out into the building.

''I will''

Undead pirates and Tiger demons? I will need to write this down...People won't believe it
