Ryu smiled "Right it is then, Towards your sisters house." Ryu steered the plane towards Station Square, then looked back. "You'll have to tell me where to land, you know."

The fox nodded, leaning on the back of Ryujin's chair. "I will. I wouldn't let you go flying around the globe for hours." she reassured, flashing another grin, winking. "Oh - better give you a heads up. My sister, Haze, doesn't take to kindly to strangers - if anyone. You really will have to watch your tounge, as I doubt I can save you from her." she instructed, hoping Ryujin wouldn't be stupid enough to do something careless at the best of times. Then again, with a temper like the eldest of the Firepaw children, anything out of line would often result in a limb being swiftly removed...

Ryujing grinned "Ah, well... I'll see what happens. She can't be too bad, can she?" He laughed as he said this, and flicked yet another button on the control panel before him, which popped a set of controls infront of Trixie "Actually... how about you steer?"

Trixie laughed along with the chameleon until the controls leapt up. She blinked, before giggling again. "Well it doesn't seem there are any nearby cliffs, so we won't crash. It has to be worth a shot." she beamed, looking out of the window, loosly gripping the controls, soon spotting what looked like a dot on a hill after a little while. "Now to land." she smiled, gesturning towards the hill.

Ryu chuckled at the hill. "Somewhere down there eh? right then." Gripping the controls, he tighyl banked the plane, then brought it to a halt, hovering above, slightly before the hill. Slowly, the plane lowered itself down till it touched the ground, and Ryu hopped out. "Where now, Trixie?"

Leaping off the plane behind Ryujin, Trixie lead the chameleon up the reasonably steep hill. "Just remember Ryu, don't do anything that could get you hurt. Or decapitated." she instructed, a cheerful smile being fired over her shoulder as they reached an oak door of the only building they came across, this being a stone cabin. The fox cautiously made a quick tap of the door, sending a warning, hopeful glance at her friend.
After a while, footsteps were heard from behind the all, with a foul mooded grumble to acompany them. The door was swung violently open, a pale, slender female feline glaring at the arrivals, orange locks of hair soon covering her eyes. Behind her, a silver wing sprouted from her left shoulder blade, a mechanical silver bar from the right, a cybernetic halo hovering over her head to match. This halo had a red aura to it, this matching buttons that were located on her leather attire. A demon's tail twitched part in surprise, part from lack of patients. This, was Haze Firepaw - eldest of Diablo Firepaw's countless children. "Well?" she hissed, leaning forward so she was level with her sister. "What the hell do you want now?"
The fox attempted a laugh, smiling slightly. "Bad day huh? Well I'm sorry to bother you Haze, but we have a situation on our han-"
Haze took this chance to interrupt. "I'm not hiding another one of your friends from Demon Hunters. You know what happened to my last house!" she roared, clawed hands resting on her hips.
"You don't understand." the fox sighed. "This is Ryujin. We just need somewhere to rest. He's not a demon, and as far as I know he's not on the run from anyone... Ryujin, this is Haze." she added, glancing between the two.
Narrowing her eyes, Haze grunted, opening the door wider to let the two past. "You can stay, but I don't like it." she insisted, gesturing with her hand for them to enter. Trixie smiled giving her sister a thankful nod and leading Ryujin inside the small home, the cat slamming the door behind them.

Ryu followed Trixie in, and then sort of hovvered in the house aimlessly. "Well... Nice to meet you Haze... I've heard a lot about you." He said, the just slumpped against the door, muttering to himself...

The cat narrowed her eyes again, ignoring the chameleons greeting, marching off into the kitchen, not showing her face again.
Trixie sighed, leaning next to Ryujin, looking somewhat disappointed. "That's her way of saying hi." she whispered, smiling. "We just caught her in a bad mood is all. She's really quite a sweet person behind all of that robotic-ness." she assured, moving over to the window, staring at the sky, aimlessly.

Ryu chuckled, then yelped as the wall he was leaning on started heating up. "Oh great... don't tell me this is more of Haze saying hi" He said as he stepped into the centre of the room. Without warning, the walls flared into open flames, roaring and raging for a few minutes, before dieing down, and leaving the house as ashes on the ground of a very barren hill.
"Ah, Ryu. Here you are... Wherever here is..." A voice came from behind them, and Ryu turned around to see his adopted brother, Zion, standing there. Suddenly the last part of the house just went 'Bang!' and exploded. "Well... I mean, that little bit of wood on a barren hill, doesn't look very good, does it?
Ryu glanced around at all the ashes about the place, and muttered to himself. "Haze is NOT going to be happy." And indeed, she wasn't, standing in what had once been the kitchen, and was now just another pilie of ash.
"Erm... Well... Uhh.... You see... It's not my fault!"Ryu said hastily, as he slowly stepped back. "It, eh..."
"Ryu, enough." Zion said calmly. "Was this your house Miss? I'm sorry about the wreckage, but I couldn't find your fireplace, and I had to get in somehow... Anyway, here let me make it up to you. He pulled an emerald out from his robes, stared at it for a moment, the put it away again. "Here, have a look at this." He pulled what seemed to be a burnt tree stub, which opened a door revealing steps leading into the darkness. "Now, lights!" As he said this, several globes of blue light busrt into life in the interiour of the tunnle, guiding the way down to the new underground hideout.

As Ryu yelped his original statement, the fox stepped back, shaking her head. "No this is what happens when you steal her cookies... What did you take?" she frowned, stood back to back with the chameleon, her eyes soon meeting the panther. Before she could assult Ryujin for an answer, the cat stood in the soot of what was her kitchen cursing under her breath as she marched forward.
"This is why I don't like it when you get social, Trixie." she snarled, narrowing her eyes at Ryujun, laser claws raised until Zion caught her attention. "What the hell?" she growled, blinking once or twice as she looked at the tunnel, shaking her head. She shot a glare back to the two that had shown on her doorstep - when it was there - and marched after the panther.
Trixie sighed, looking at Ryujin, following her sister after a moment or so. "Friend of yours then?"

Ryu followed Trixie down the stairs. "Friend? Not exactly... Apopted Brother more like."
Zion reached the bottom of the stairs, then reached in his robes, and pulled out a small key, which he turned and gave to Haze. "After you, it is your new house, after all." He said, with a sweeping bow. "This place is tuned to the first person who enters it, You go in, and it'll be perfect for you."

Haze blinked, hesitantly accepting the key. "Seriously?" she questioned, her anger quickly shifting to confusion. "You do know if I get attacked by something, I'll chop that head of your clean off. You're lucky you kept it until now." she threatened, watching Zion carefully. "Why the hell did you burn down my house anyway?" the cat then roared, trying to peice together just what was happening, glaring at Ryujin over her shoulder.
The fox narrowed her eyes at her sister, before smiling sympathetically to Ryujin, then back to her sister. "Just open it."
Rolling her eyes the feline did as Trixie instructed, unlocking the door with the handed over key. Sure enough, as the door was opened, a room overwhelmed by technology, greeted them, this branching off to several other rooms. Dumbfounded, Haze turned to Zion. "How did you-?" she rambled.

Zion grinned, then held out his hand, showing off a small egg. "Just a small gift i got from Dan, thats all." Then blinked as he heard something beep. "Ryu... what the hell was that?" He cried, as he turned towards Ryu who was examining his watch with interest.
"Oh, crap... It's that robot again... Looks like he's come to rest just outside the Angel City." Ryu muttered, then turned around, "Coming Trixie?" He stalked back up the stairs towards the plane.
"Robot, Angel City? that can't be good news..." Zion muttered to himself, then blinked, shrugged, and vanished. Then reappeared... "Ah, yeah, the house... I couldn't find anything else flamable nearby, and it was so dry... Sorry about it, really" And vanished again.

Trixie nodded, trotting just behind Ryujin back towards the craft. "You think he's going to use that chaos energy on the Angels?" she frowned, having to ask her automatic thought, glancing ove her shoulder, yelping to see her sister marching towards them.
"You think I'm not getting in on this after my house was burnt down? You're stupider than father to think that." she growled, overtaking them as they were out on the hill. "You have some explaining to do Flametail."
"First up don't call me that." the fox snapped, walking in line with Ryujin. "Besides, I don't know if you getting involved is a good idea." she added, looking to the chameleon for his opinion.

Ryujin shrugged, "I really have no idea what he's going to di with it... you'd be better of asking him, and he could be anywhere by now... as for getting Haze involved... I reayy don't know, and don't care. I just want to do this, then have a break... all this running around is really starting to get a bit irritating."
Zion, in the meanwhile, was outside the Angel City, watching it intently. "Robot, Robot... I don't see a damned thing... I mean... there's Dan cleaing up from my earlier, attack, but asides from that, it seems to be deserted... what's happened?"
