[yokeye]

WHAT: Open prompts for Toki's sister hollow wandering around. Prompt for Rex to take her down.
WHEN: January 31st and beyond
WHERE: In Soleil, on the road to Daybreak, on campus

Prompts in comments. Open to anything you want with her pre-Rex, but ultimately she's going to end up an experiment and destroyed. As for who the hollow is likely to go after, that's up in the air.

[She may be weak, but not complacent. If he intends to ask her questions, he will not be 'destroying' her at this moment. There will be opportunities to escape. She growls again, not wishing to engage him in conversation when he is not part of her plan. Though speaking with him grants her more time to analyze her situation and understand his power.]

We could... learn about each other...

[Her voice is guttural and low-pitched, calm for she will escape; she has no doubts.]

I am meeting... my brother... You do not know him...

[She knows he doesn't. She can feel no connection.]

[heromedal]

Don't waste your time trying. There's nothing you want to know about me and you don't have much time left.

[ He turns to face her, squatting down. Just outside of the range of her physical reach, just in case. Already he had begun the process. The smoke clinging to her began to slowly, piece by piece, dissolve her. From the feet up. As she came apart, the data of how she was held together in the first is saved into a small sphere that it coalesced into.

At the very least, it was painless. He actually wonders when she'll even notice. ]

And what do you want with your brother?

[ He swallows, more heavily than he intended. ]

Because I will, if you so wish, pass on your last words.

[ It was almost literally the least he could do. But he had to do something or he'd go insane. ]

[yokeye]

[He was speaking as though she were dying at this very moment. She had been wrong; he was not waiting. She felt nothing, but looking down at the smoke, she seemed to be fading into it, becoming part of it? Her anger was lessening with the knowledge she was at her end. The wolf mask splits entirely, a piece falling silently into the smoke. She looks at him with slightly more focused eyes, tinged with anguish and sadness.]

Tell him... there was nothing... he could have... done... and that... I am at peace...

[The second was a lie, though she expects he knows this. The least she could do was make him regret his choices.]

You... will not be... forgiven...

[heromedal]

I know.

[ He honestly does seem to accept that. He doesn't deserve to be. He doesn't believe there's any justice in the world, but if there were... he would receive it.

There isn't and if he's smart, sticks to the shadows, he won't. ]

What's his name?

[ And after an extra second- ]

What's your name?

[yokeye]

[The sadness in her eyes is replaced with a blank stare once again. She has accepted her fate.]

His name... is Toki... I... am Ginshu...

[heromedal]

Ginshu.

[ He repeats it and nods. It's committed to memory. As well as that of her brother.

He will complete his self-imposed task, even if he knows it's a lie.

The process is approaching its end now. Not much time left. ]

Thanks to you, the world is going to be safer. If that helps.

[ It probably doesn't. He just has to confirm it in words. With the knowledge he'll gain, he'll be stronger. He'll be more able to avert the encroaching Nightfall. Anything is worth that, surely. ]

[yokeye]

[Though it is ultimately rather quick, it seems an eternity to her, waiting. It is not at all like her first death; there is no pain, no fear, only nothingness and void. His last words are lost in the smoke at the moment of her demise.]
