[He'll admit that he's a little flustered. Color faintly decorates his cheeks, and he clears his throat as her petite body shifts atop him until she finally takes his hand. Once off, her hand doesn't fall away as expected. Instead, he feels a sudden rush of air as he's hefted off of the ground, and nearly stumbles, taken aback by the force.

. . . Isn't he heavy?]

T-Think nothing of it. I am uninjured. [Nothing he can't shake off. Instead, while he doesn't continue to grasp her hand after up, he lifts it up to his chest respectfully.] However, it is dangerous out here tonight. I must insist that we get you to safety. A young woman such as yourself should not be allowed to come to harm. [He may not be on the defense force here, but along with his companions they have always worked outside of the law when aiding others, so this is nothing new.] I will protect you. Please allow me to take you somewhere safe.

[Most of the people she interacts with that closely have known her since she was a baby. Others don't step within her personal bubble, but it would be improper of her to point it out. So Ai focuses on getting them both back on their feet which she may put a little too much strength into.

When they're both standing, Ai lets go of his hand and shifts to pick up his flashlight. The no longer illuminated flashlight. She flicks it a couple of times but it doesn't turn on.]

That's not necessary, I can take care of myself. Both my mother, papa and grandpa have taught me how to fight. [Though her grandpa was more interested in spoiling her rotten in other ways, he does still know a thing or two at his age.] It looks like your flashlight is broken. Maybe you should stick close to me until we can find another one.

But you are also without.

[The better option then would be for both of them to find another flashlight, if that's the case. He can't allow her to be harmed, particularly for his sake.]

I have a good sense of direction. [Confident! Even with her talent, it's probably best to get off the streets. There should be more flashlights at his place, too.] Follow me and we can find one at-- [His place, he intends to say. But before he can finish his face connects with a low-lying branch. Hands lifting up to his nose, his eyes water immediately.

Ouch...]

B-Be careful of the branches.

[Before she can warn him of the branch he's about to run into, there's a resounding smack and Ai winces in sympathy. With one hand wrapped around the flashlight, she reaches out to grab Kija's arm and gently guide him away from the tree and it's attacking branches.]

I've got extremely good eyesight. I can guide us away from here. [Well, it's not a lie but isn't the entire truth.]

Just tell me where you're trying to go.

[Both of them trying to protect the other, it's a little silly.]

	[. . . His pride at the moment though. But it seems she does have the advantage in the pitch darkness. With a touch of color in his cheeks he responds.] . . . I was going to say my residence which I share with my companions. [But as he recalls it's a distance from here.] It may be easier for us to find the 'convenience store'.

[Deal with it because this is just how it is at the moment. She shifts her grip and reaches for his hand rather than simply tug him around by his arm.]

Come on, then. It's this way. [Ai starts leading them, away from the tree. She looks over her shoulder at him and there's a hint of a smile on her face that can probably be heard in the light-heartedness of her next words.] I promise I won't walk you into anything.

[Somehow this seems backwards. He stiffens just slightly when her hand falls over his left one. It's only because she can see better in the dark, he reminds himself. It isn't the same as some of the many situations at home.

Although he feels somewhat defensive at her final remark.]

I-I would not do so again! [ One time-! Swallowing, he focuses his attention ahead, eyes straining to make something- anything- out in the darkness. Quietly he sighs after a moment. He really can't see anything no matter how hard he tries. It's a wonder that she can at all.

Clearing his throat, he keeps his voice low so as not to attract unwanted attention to themselves.]

You seemed upset when we collided. [An opening? She doesn't have to expand on it if she doesn't want to. She just seems in control of herself now, and so he wonders what it is that spooked her so before.]

[Once he can find his own way, Ai won't go around holding his hand. She simply thought this was more polite than yanking at his arm. This way he can tug back if need be.]

It's not as if it's your fault that it's dark out. Or that your flashlight broke. [That second one is technically her fault since she smacked into him. If she hadn't, he'd still have one.

Ai is careful to avoid any of the creatures while aiming towards the nearest store that probably has flashlights.

She's quiet for a moment at that.] I saw something... disturbing. Except it wasn't real.

[Still seeing it out of the corner of her eye.] I believe it was brought on by the wasp's venom.

[Venom...? In the dark his eyes open wide. Not only had she been stung by one of those evil creatures, but she was still on her feet. The wound had to be large and aggravated, considering their size. He pauses in order to draw her to a stop, concerned.]

If you were stung, then it would be more prudent to get you to a doctor. [It could be dangerous otherwise, she's already confessed to seeing things.] You could be in danger if something is not done about it's venom. I would not wish for you to become ill or worse.

[It had been large, now it wasn't. In a couple more minutes, it would be completely gone. She can smell her own blood and it isn't as bad as it had been when she was first stung. Ai couldn't guess how long it would take for her body to neutralize the venom.]

Extraordinary healing capabilities is another one of my abilities. The wound is already closing on its own and the venom won't be a problem soon. You don't need to worry about me. [Taught to defend herself, healing capabilities - what a girl.]

[ Okay but what is she!? At a loss, he supposes he can't argue. She sounds serious, though it seems almost unbelievable.]

I had heard there were people here with inhuman abilities. [He himself isn't normal, though he draws no attention to that in the moment. He had met another girl with extraordinary strength To an extent he... doesn't enjoy sharing the same sort of capability. But he can't deny someone the advantage, especially under circumstances like this.

While he can't not worry to an extent, he'll believe in her words.]

Your abilities are fortunate. Are you part of the defense force within this place?

[Something she isn't saying. Others may know about vampires here in this world but Ai is used to hiding that piece of information from most people. And while it's clear that this guy is not exactly human, she's not sure if she should tell him.]

It seems only natural with so many people from different worlds. [Just like she isn't offering up a whole lot of information about her special abilities, Ai doesn't ask the stranger about his claw hand. Maybe eventually they'll talk about such personal things but at the moment they have more important things to worry about.]

I believe so, yes. I'm not part of the defense force here. Though I may join it once this is over.

[Not that it's stopping her now.]

	Yes. I have spoken to the leader of the force. [She seems reasonable and capable as well. ] Although I do not have the intention of joining, I do believe that they do a number of good things here within this prison. (Reply to this) (Parent)
