Anzai smiled and backed up a step, "You certainly are interesting. As to the perceptive, you have to be when you're by yourself long enough." She makes a flourishing bow to him, "Welcome to the group. As I've already said my name, I would like to know yours since we will be traveling together for awhile."

She stands back up and her wings flutter slightly, "Also around us the cloak is just annoying. No one will care, and if you care what others think more's the pity. Your reasoning for joining us also deals with what's under the cloak, I would assume, since you just pulled it to hide yourself better, though I don't doubt what you said about not wanting to die was partially true." Anzai shrugs her usual smirk back on her face.

Katsumi hummed. This girl... He chuckled. She was interesting. Rarely would many say what she had to him. ...Anzai, was it? As he recalled her name, he nodded. "You really are a wonder... My name is Katsumi Ishida. It's a..." A slight pause as his lips quirked upwards. "Pleasure to meet you girls."

What he said wasn't exactly false. While it was... nice, to meet them, he was still weary of humans and Zanians, yet... Katsumi's nose twitch involuntarily. The girl, Lily, she seemed to be a half. But, she was comfortable around Anzai. How could this be? ...Perhaps they were different. Hopefully.

"However, my cloak stays. I've grown much attached to it." Not wrong. It had been with him since he left the village, stolen right out of... was it the tailor's? Hmm... He forgot. But no matter, it was something he had kept on for a long time, and he wouldn't ditch it just due to a girl's comment. But... He threw back the hood. "If it pleases you, I'll show my face." Spoken in a somewhat annoyed tone.

Hearing a name, Lily looks over at the two who have been conversing. She had been distracted by a wind chime in a near by shop. She steps forward and does a little spin. "Yay! Another person for the group! I'm Lily, of course she probably already said that." She points at Anzia. Then, she skips around them. "Come on! We need to finish shopping."

Aqua looks at the other girl. "I think I get it, can I have a bunch of those?" She points to the coins.

Anzai chuckles and smiles when Katsumi puts back his hood, "That works just fine by me, Katsumi. No need to be annoyed either. I have nothing against halfs. Besides that, well lets just say I base my opinions by myself with no need to listen to others."

She then looks down at Lilly, "Yeah I know." She then walks off towards a potions stand a little ways over and looks over her shoulder, "You two coming, Katsumi, Lilly? If you don't I'll leave you behind."

Anzai's mismatched eyes look over the two behind her and she humms and starts laughing quietly and says more to herself than anything, "Oh this will be fun! Much more fun than I've had in a while." She had observed everybody that had joined so far and was quite pleased with the group. Three zanians and 3 mixed bloods. She smiled again an looked up, this would be fun. However the lack of humans would make things a bit more difficult. However she didn't know what skills the mixed ones had. Oh the fun to be had!

"I'm coming!" Lily runs forward and then looks back at Katsumi and nods her head. "I'm glad there are so many people who want to help and every one seems so nice." The staff in her hand glows a little brighter on the top. "Oops. Let myself get carried away." She stares at the staff in the most serious face she can muster until it dims down. Then she smiles and starts to sing. "Light is fun, dark I run. Unless you're by my side." She continues to sing quietly as she turns and skips over to Anzia. Her skipping in the semi crowded market place earns her some glares.

Anzai shakes her head and smiles slightly at Lily, "You are so naive." She then ruffles her hair and stops to look at the potion stand observing the potions trying to decide which ones she wanted to get or which ones would be useful really. She looked over them carefully occasionally picking one up to look at it a bit more closely and then usually putting it back down. "Hmm. This stand doesn't have too many useful potions. They're overpriced as well." She puts down the potions she had grabbed and walks off to a different potion stand when something catches her eye and she scowls as it reminds her too deeply of her past. Thankfully the stand where it was didn't notice her or if they did they didn't recognize her.

Jace was watching a little group walk around outside and more precisely, a guy dressed in black. He wasn't sure why but this guy seemed similar to him, like they may have met before. Stepping out from behind a tree, he approached the guy in black. He wasn't sure what he was going to say, probably something really stupid. Walking quickly over to the guy he tapped the guy on the shoulder. He knew how awkward this was going to be and he was scared that this might be dangerous. "Hey um... Do I know you?" He asked, his voice wavering slightly.

Katsumi froze, eyes narrowing dangerously. "And just how exactly, did you know about that? For all you know, I could be a human." He did nothing to deny he was a half, but cold fury radiated off him, and even his raven knew, for it ducked out of town, presumably going to tell the rest of his animal companions. This girl... "Hmph." Katsumi stalked away, and a piercing whistle was soon heard. While he knew his raven wouldn't reach him anytime soon, it would have definitely heard him, and would come looking for him later. He double checked to make sure the magic hiding his wings were still in place.

"I'm coming!" ...Katsumi decided he didn't like this girl, and his thoughts were only enforced moments later when Lily started singing. She would be a nuisance indeed. "Bah." He spat out with venom, as he threw the hood back on, about to take a few steps further when a hand tapped his should. He snapped. "Now what is it?!" He was surprised to see a male there, but it didn't cause him to lessen his glare.

"Do I know you..?" Katsumi gave the boy a look over. Indeed he seemed familiar, yet... Katsumi scoffed.

"You do look familiar, yet if we have met, I cannot say where. For I cannot remember if such a thing."

Jace was taken aback by this guys rudeness and it made him take a step back. He could feel the ground vibrate underneath of him and he took a deep breath, calming his nerves so that it will stop. He didn't understand what he had done to deserve this kind of treatment but what did he expect? He had always been treated this way for being a half. It seemed like nobody liked him or his breed. He felt exposed and trapped at that moment, like a caged dog.

"Sorry I asked, damn... You're a rude person." He said, snapping back with just as much venom in his voice. "It was a simple question but apparently, you're too damn disrespectful to answer it with at least a little more sincerity. What! Where you raised by a pack of wolves you damn human... Learn to treat your elders with respect!" He said back, getting louder and louder with each word.

He felt anger course through his body and he started to heat up. His skin felt like it was melting and all he wanted to do was to choke the life out of this insignificant human. He could feel the tips of his fingers split open and fire shot out of them, enveloping his hand in a blue and green flame. Taking a step back from this guy, he took another deep breath to calm himself. He had always had problems controlling his powers and being able to control the elements wasn't a simple task.
