"It's alright, I can tell." she smiled, pulling up the dress on Ayaka's zipper. "Crohn's just as shy about it as you are. You just have to come out and tell him." she smiled. "Anyway, we should get going." She folded up her leather suit and put it away in the bag she had that attatched around her thigh. She also put the C4 and her dagger in there. "All ready?"

Ayaka took a deep breath, then sighed, shaking off any destraction for later and got her game face back on, "Yeah! lets do this."

Kumori nodded. "And.. I apologize in advance for anything I might have to say to you or about you -or even about humans in general. And.. if I need to ask you to do something, even if it sounds stupid... Just.. know that it's just to fit in, okay..?" She smiled shyly, then headed back into the hallway toward the main area before Ayaka could reply.

Ayaka followed after her with a small smirk, "jeez, Kumori-san, you make it sound like I dont trust you enough to recognise when your acting or not. Besides, I'm sure nothing too extreme will happen before the big event if you know what I mean,"

Kumori nodded. "I.. I know... I just.. I would feel bad, knowing what vampires say. We.. well, we don't exactly treat humans nicely... I mean, some of us do. My father always.. did... But, that's beside the point." She smiled a little to Ayaka. "It just feels strange, to be back here after all that's happened. I guess I'm just a little nervous is all."

Ayaka placed a gentle hand on Kumori's shoulder, "You feel nervous, imagine how much the bride must feel." she said with an encuraging joke, suddenly, she noticed a vampire couple stroll by, glancing with a suspicious grimmace in their eyes. In quick reaction, Ayaka quickly attempted to act submissive and said with a semi-convincing act, "Uh, Here, MISTRESS, allow me to wipe off this...stray hair on your shoulder..." she then displayed a quick wiping of her hand across Kumori's shoulder, then kept her head down like a good little servent.
then the vampires smirked and walked away.

Kumori simply nodded and continued walking. Once she was sure they were out of earshot, she said quietly. "Thank you... That was quick thinking. Seems we're heading in the right direction. So, it's probably best if we don't talk much for now..." She did her best to keep her chin up instead of gazing down at the floor, not wanting to look submissive. Finally, they made it to the main entrance. A couple late-comers were having their coats taken by butlers. Most of the girls were in their groups, gossiping or chatting while they waited. The men were in different -usually somewhat larger- groups or in pairs, discussing business or family or whatever else rich men discuss.
She noticed one young woman who she'd met when they were both about ten. They'd been good friends, though they didn't live incredibly close. If she hadn't been kidnapped, her family might have been the ones to take her and Amei in. By accident, she met the woman's eye. But, despite wishing she wouldn't, she watched as the woman started walking toward her.
(I'll let you play her, so this isn't all one sided. (since Ayaka can't really talk with Kumori much while there are other vampires around. XD))

The beautiful woman made a bee line straight towards her and said with great Excitement, "Kumori? Kumori Ravenwood?" at a closer look, her eyes widened with excitement and gave kumori a great big hug, "Oh my God, Kumori! I cant believe its you! Do you remember me? Cassandra Kane?"

Kumori smiled, returning her hug. "Of course I remember you." she said. "How could I ever for get one of my closest friends?"

Cassandra laughed, "where have youve been all this time? I heard about what happened with that fire incident. I assumed the worse..."

"I'm sure everyone did..." She said. "It was terrible, Cassandra. My sister and I were kidnapped. By another vampire, no less. So, of course, he knew exactly how to.. you know, take advantage of me... It was horrible, Cassie. But, I'm so happy to be free."

Cassandra looked shocked, "Oh God, I'm so sorry Kumori.." she gave her another sympathetic hug, "But I imagine you are doing much better now that youre free? I mean, look at you! you look so stunning in that dress, and I see you have youre own supplier with you." she gestured to Ayaka, who signaled Kumori to cut the conversation short with a subtle caugh from her throat.
Cassandra looked confused for a second, "Is she alright, I hope she didnt catch anything?"

"She's probably just nervous. I'm just breaking her in, you know? Speaking of which, I should probably.. you know..." She smiled sweetly. "It was a pleasure seeing you again, Cassie. And, I hope to see you again soon." She hugged her friend goodbye and lead Ayaka away from the group. It only took her a moment to figure out where to go, since it wasn't exactly difficult to follow where the vampires were heading toward. She moved into a side room not to far from the large area where the wedding would be held so that she and Ayaka could talk.

Ayaka seemed confused at her sudden change in direction one they found themselves in a private room. "You okay Kumori?" she inquired concerningly.

Kumori nodded slowly. "Yea... I just.. I'm just not so sure... I mean, I know the Bloodshades are bad. Very bad. But.. the rest of these people are innocent, Ayaka. Not always nice, and a lot of times stuck up. But, they're just like any other rich person with the exception that they drink blood. I guess.. I might just feel this way because I.. I used to be one of them... But, I'm not sure I can hurt them."
(we should overhear one of the Bloodshades passing near the room they're in, who'd overheard the talk going around that Kumori's alive. Since we were saying they should have been responsible for trying to kill her family.)

Good idea)
Ayaka could understand her concerns, so she responded with mutual respect and sympathy and said, "Kumori...I know this might be hard...but...in order to protect your family we have..." Suddenly she stopped herself when she started to hear voices from outside. She heard them mention something about Kumori and her last name and her and Kumori decided to creep over and listen carefully
"Alright!, explain to me exactly how Kumori Ravenwood is ALIVE?" one voice sounded very stern and demanding, like he bared high authority.
The other voice was much more submissive, most likely a subordinate, "I dont know sir, as far as I know, Kurugari was responsible for that task...you think that maybe his dissapearance may have something to do with this?"
"I hardly care for that perverse swine! If this is his fault, then he can rot for all I care!"
"What about Kumori...?"
"We'll take care of her after the wedding. Right now we need to take care of the intruders. We you spot them, report back to me, understand?"
"Yes, Cammander Isac."
then the two individuals' footsteps gradually faded away until they had left the corridor.

Kumori glared at the ground as they sneaked back to their room. "It.. it was THEM..!" she growled fiercely. "They were the ones who planned my parent's death! The death of ALL of us!" She paced around the small room. "There's no way I can't go through with this." She looked over to them. "I have no objections to this anymore. Something needs to be done, and we're just the ones to do it."

Ayaka was now even more concerned for Kumori. She, with a very calm and reasoning voice, "Yes...We'll do that...but by doing Crohn's plan. Remember the C4? All we have to do is place that under the alter, and we get the hell out of here. okay...?"
Meanwhile Mike was just outside the room, hiding in the shadows, he heard avery word that went down regarding that Isac bastard talking about Kumori and her family...if his wife heard this...he knew that this may be a problem...

Kumori nodded, feeling a strange mix of sadness, anger and fear. She wasn't very good at hiding her emotions. She hugged Ayaka tightly, but let go quickly. She pulled out the C4. "I can get you over there, and I trust you can set it up..?" she also pulled out a gauze square and some tape. She pricked her finger, letting her blood soak into is at two places so it looked about where her fangs would go. "I told Cassie I was breaking you in..." She taped the gauze to Ayaka's neck. "Now, she won't be suspicious of she sees you without a bite."

Ayaka nodded without rebuttle and took the C4 but before she stepped out she turned back to Kumori and asked with a hint of concern, "Will you be alright...?"
