Atsuro hadn't seen the white head of hair in the crowd until he was already walking out. "H-Hey, that's Pegasus!" Now that he thought about it, he should have expected the man to be here. With how he'd run into him earlier.
In another section of the crowd, Abel turned away from the duel. He put a hand on Seth's shoulder to get his attention, and motioned with his eyes away from the crowd before beginning to walk away. He'd sensed something that required his attention... so Loki was here after all.
------------
Naoki remained standing where he was, feeling the effects of the cold but not affected by it. He put the money back in his wallet and pocketed it, and looked back up at Loki's face.
"Unlike some demons here, I respect the patron goddess' wishes," Naoki said. He stepped away from Loki. "I won't fight you here."
He turned away from the demon and moved to leave. "Do tell me if you become interested in that money."
----------------
It was only now that Enjin realized that this wasn't the same Abel he'd antagonized before. He supposed, with the nature of this island, alternate Abels could exist. Right now, he was backed into a corner. He couldn't use Gin's satori powers to create an illusion and get away, or read this Abel's mind. Not just because Abel would sense it, but because Gin was nearly out of that demonic energy he needed.
Abel shifted the position of his blade slightly, so that it was more comfortable. He narrowed his eyes at Enjin. "You hail from the Makai."
"Is that what they call it here?" Enjin asked. "A human from the Afterworld... strange, isn't it?"
"Answer my question, sinner," Abel snarled. He decided to extend his power a bit, and extended his energy to Enjin in order to nudge him more toward telling the truth. It was an abuse of power, but his Lord rarely minded. Enjin's eyes glazed over.
"Like I said before, I'm only here to visit a couple people who have some information I need," Enjin said. The nudge Abel had provided made Enjin continue, the man giving information he would have withheld otherwise. "They both have interesting spiritual abilities, with the girl having the strongest. With my host weakening, I'm going to need a new one, and the girl's already sympathetic to my host's plight, even if she doesn't remember it..."
"Why do you need the girl to be your host?" Abel asked, prying further.
"I need her to get close to a certain human whose powers I need to merge the Afterworld and the Human World. While I tried to do this once before and failed, I believe I know how to force my way past her power." Enjin blinked, and his eyes unglazed. "You made me say that," he growled angrily.
So that was this man's intentions, to fuse the demon and human realms of his world. While that world was out of Abel's jurisdiction, it went against his own morals to allow this to stay. His actions would endanger the safety of both the humans of this world and humanity in his homeworld.
"I have judged your sins," Abel said. "Your actions would eradicate the humans of your world and allow demonkind to run amok."
"This is the right thing to do," Enjin snarled. "The humans of my world doomed my family to a life in the afterworld years ago for being sympathizers with the demons!"
"For your sins, I must sentence you to death."
Abel pulled the blade back and swung it at Enjin. The man disappeared and Abel swung the blade around, spinning with it so that he faced the opposite direction, and cutting Enjin down his back, the blade passing cleanly through flesh and bone. Gasping in pain, Gin Nanami fell to the ground.
"I told you not to manipulate my mind."
Abel sheathed the blade and looked down at the dying satori. The human's soul had already passed. Abel kneeled down beside Gin and placed a hand on his shoulder, his expression pitying.
"I'm sorry you had to die for the sins of another."
Gin looked up at Abel pleadingly, but Abel shook his head. Gin didn't know what had happened, but the blood flowing from his back and the blinding pain told him he was dying. He rested his head on the ground and looked up at the sky.
"Ao..."
The last breaths left his body, and Gin Nanami fell silent. Abel placed two fingers on Gin's eyelids and pushed them closed. He stood up and looked away from the body.
I am aware this was out of line. If I am to be punished, do so now.

Seth had been quite inside his own mind, stewing over his own problems. The world outside hadn't really been of concern to him. Even in the case of an unlikely (but always possible) sudden attack, Abel was there. So there was a slight lock up of his muscles as Abel put his hand on his shoulder, but it was merely that of awaking not of true shock. Only Abel would have been able to get that close. He looked towards the King of Bel and gave a nod at the signal. If Abel went, he'd follow.
----------
Yuugi's eyes had widened at Pegasus' sudden appearance. He looked down at his cards and realized wherever the man had been standing, he'd seen his hand before he forfeited. He frowned at Pegasus' suggestion. He hadn't really intended on letting Kaiba see his cards. All that mattered was he won, right? Before Yuugi could oblige or deny Pegasus' request, Kaiba had stepped between Mokuba and the white haired man.
"Pegasus, stay out of this. This is my Duel," Kaiba growled. His voice was low. Mokuba stayed behind Kaiba, but continued to glare at Pegasus.
Pegasus looked down on him with a amicable smile, not intimidated in the least, "Was kimi Duel, Kaiba-boy. And I do believe it was more of an exhibition match? We have things to discuss in regards to your recent actions, I believe. However, I do believe it was Yuugi-boy's turn to speak~"
Kaiba glowered at Pegasus, who turned his head away from him and towards Yuugi, "Yuugi-boy! Your hand, onegai?"
Yuugi frowned and glanced towards Atem, who seemed more than a little upset. The rest of his friends were still in various forms of shock. Without a response from the former Pharaoh, he looked at Sugoroku, and from the returned gaze there he began walking towards Pegasus and the Kaiba brothers. He turned his hand around to show Kaiba.
"Kaiba-kun, I stopped the duel because I don't want to win when all it means is revenge," Yuugi said.
Kaiba looked down at the cards and his snarl deepened, "YOu ran away when you could win?!"
----------
Izanami had been working in the barely used kitchen of her "home" when she felt the flare of energy. She jerked her head to the side and narrowed her eyes. Did no one have respect anymore?! She turned the stove off and trotted over to the area where Souji and Amaterasu were staying, sticking her head in.
"Keep an eye on Souji-san, I have to look into this," she said. She left without waiting for a response, extreme anger just below the surface of her stoic expression.
----------
Loki's glare didn't fade much when Naoki told him he wouldn't fight him here. And as much as he didn't want to admit it, he knew he'd lose if they got into a fight. His usual tricks wouldn't work on a demon of Hitoshura's level... and there was no telling how far either Abel were at this point. So he would have to drop it in favor of his other cards. The growing frost in the area didn't fade any, though.
"You're not worth my time," Loki seethed, covering up what he damn well knew about their power levels. In a flash the ice was gone, and his expression was replaced with his usual smirk, "I've found a few things a lot more interesting than you and your taunts, after all."
Cain had crossed his arms by this point. The encounter seemed to be dying down, but Loki had just revealed a reason for him to stick around. It was unlikely it was information he hadn't realize himself, but... well, Abel had told him to scout out information. He smirked to himself. And the Abel he'd lead to the crown wasn't aware of the actions Loki had taken, now was he?

Amaterasu lifted her head at Izanami's voice. The wolf whined and lay her head back down on Souji's chest. While she'd sensed the energy, she had a duty to her father right now. Even if it was just an offshoot of him, she still had to protect him...
------------
Naoki raised an eyebrow at Loki. The demon had found something new, had it? In any case, he was done here anyways. He could feel Izanami approaching, and would rather not be around when she made it there.
"Is that so? Well, I have other responsibilities," Naoki said. "I suspect we'll be meeting each other again soon..."
He began to walk away, and would be gone by the time Abel and Seth made it there.

"Duelling isn't about winning all the time, Kaiba-kun!" Yuugi snapped back, although his eyes widened at the sudden force and he lowered his head, shaking it, "I know you think I'm stupid for it, but I still consider you a friend... But if all you want to do is prove you're better than me through Duelling, than I don't think I should play with you like that anymore."
Yuugi looked up towards Pegasus, "How did you get here...?"
Sugoroku frowned to himself and let out a sigh, "Yuugi was trying to make a point, and Pegasus blew it. Although right now I think we have more to worry about in regards to the crowd..."
"Details, details, Yuugi-boy," Pegasus grinned. He glanced towards Kaiba and then towards the crowd, "Am watashi going to have to clean up another one of kimi messes, Kaiba-boy?"
----------
"I wouldn't suggest sticking around if you don't want to cause trouble either, Loki," Cain smirked, "Or would you want Hitoshura to seem smarter than you?"
Loki turned towards Cain and gave a shrug. The ice had faded completely by this point, and his aura had gone down to normal levels. It wouldn't mean anything to those who had already locked in on him, but it was enough he wouldn't catch new attention. He crouched down, putting his hands on his knees so that he could look Cain in the eye, ignoring Naoki at this point.
When he tried to rub a hand on Cain's head, the black haired child jumped backwards. Loki grinned, "Rather spritely aren't you? Energy of youth, eh?"
He stood back up, "We'll see each other again, I'm sure. I know you well enough to know you're interested in that information of mine," He looked to the side, "Give Abel my greetings."
Cain blinked in time for the frigid wind to blast him in the face, which was followed by Seth and Abel's arrival less than a second later. Seth's hackles raised and he threw his hands over his arms, rubbing at the almost arctic wind that had just blown. He looked towards Abel with a concerned expression. If he'd read his King right, whatever he'd sensed had been right here...
Cain looked towards Abel, "Loki knows something."
----------
"No more than your actions earlier, Messiah," was the initial reply to Abel's sentiments. There was no forgiveness, only cold fact from YHVH's messenger, "You are still under scrutiny for your previous refusal of orders, but you have not yet truly broken your capacity. Keep your emotions in line, it would not do well for them to serve as a weakness to His cause."

Abel followed the presence from the duel to the woods surrounding the shrine. That distinctive presence... he hadn't felt it in nearly four months now. He came to the clearing just as the chilled wind blew, and that was enough to confirm who had been here just now. He rubbed his arms in an attempt to get some warmth back into them.
"I assumed as such," Abel said. "I feel a muted other presence here too... Hitoshura?" It was voiced as a question, but Abel didn't need any confirmation. He had watched the demon kill Keiji once... that wasn't a presence you forgot any time soon.
"I take it you couldn't find out what Loki knew, then," Abel said.
-----------------
Abel lowered his head and nodded. He'd allowed his emotions to get ahead of him. Though he'd renounced his humanity during his fight with Babel, it was harder to let go of than he thought. Understood, my lord.
He looked down at the lifeless body of Gin Nanami. It wouldn't do well for him to remain. He began to swiftly run away from the body and the shrine it lay in front of. It would be found quickly enough. Once he was a fair distance away, he stopped again.
My Lord... the demon lord we encountered before, the alternate version of myself... who was the child accompanying him?

Seth's muscles tensed as Abel asked his question about Hitoshura, and he was pretty sure he'd caught a smirk meant only for him from Cain as a result of it. He was just as sure Abel wouldn't catch it, Cain was skilled at that sort of thing. The fact that Cain's current form was that of an eight year old child only made the whole situation more unsettling, all for how well his mind knew that Cain wasn't a demon.
Cain turned his attention to Abel and gave his characteristic smile, "No, but I suspect we'll find out soon enough. I do believe he intends on stalking us again."
Seth looked towards Abel in confusion at Cain's words. Again?
----------
"He is one allied with the demons."
The response was curt and there was a tone indicated Abel was not to inquire further as to his identity. It was one that had been used before with YHVH's Messiah, one that had always been indicative that his Lord knew best and he was not to question His actions. One that also tended to end conversations, for that matter.
----------
Kisa looked towards Minato with a concerned expression when something flashed across the barrier between her conscious and subconscious. Her eyes widened and she jerked her head behind her, looking with concerned eyes towards the front of the Shrine. Something... something had happened. But what?

Minato had been watching the events of the duel, though at this point it was more the aftermath of the events. Right now was not a good time to try to make it back to the others, that was for sure. When Kisa jerked her head behind her, he turned toward her with a concerned expression.
"Kisa-chan? Is everything alright?"
---------------------
Abel scowled at Cain's news. He was not exactly eager to have the demon stalking him once more, especially after learning that the Messiah had appeared in this dimension.
At Seth's look, Abel turned toward Seth. "Loki followed me once before, during the Lockdown. After our encounter with him before, I'd thought he'd finally decided to leave us alone... I suppose he changed his mind."
---------------
Abel knew to drop the subject at Metatron's curt tone. It would not do well to anger his Lord at this point and time, especially after his failures earlier. He needed to control his emotions more if he was going to do this.
Understood, my lord.

"Niisama..." Mokuba spoke, having noticed the crowd himself.
Kaiba put a hand to his temple and sighed, "This isn't over."
Whether it was to Yuugi or Pegasus was unclear, although an observant might catch it was to both of them. Kaiba spun around, his trenchcoat rippling from the action, and took a few steps forward, frowning at the crowd.
"The title of King of Duelists can't be transferred as a result of a forfeit! If you have any greivances, take them up with my opponent!" Kaiba said.
"Th-that title isn't mine!" Yuugi stammered out, eying the crowd. He should have expected Kaiba to pull that....
Kaiba turned to him, "Wasn't it Yuugi Mutou who participated in those tournaments?"
Pegasus rolled his eyes, and when he opened his mouth... wasn't speaking Japanese, * "Everyone, could I please have your attention? Please forgive Kaiba-boy's rudeness here, he is only a teenager. If you would please direct your attention to various stalls throughout the Shrine, we do have those Duel Disks on sale. No reserves, so you'd best be purchasing yours before they sell out. You've seen what htey can do, I believe?~"
Yuugi let out a sigh as Pegasus then repeated his message in Japanese. He looked towards Kaiba, "Kaiba-kun, I told you. You're right, it wasn't me most of the times you duelled me. It was Atem."
Atem frowned and shook his head. At least Pegasus had the crowd under control. He gestured towards Yuugi to head over back to their group while the crowd was distracted by Pegasus' sales pitch.
----------
"I don't...." Kisa started out. She paused and looked back towards Minato, "Something happened. I don't know what. I'm sorry I'm so vague...."
----------
"Forgive my assumption, Abel, but... couldn't what he know have to do with you? Or the Court?" Seth inquired, "Should we be worried? Loki is no minor god..."

Atsuro had really no idea what was going on now. Yuugi and Kaiba had been arguing over the title of King of Duelists, and now Pegasus was saying something in English that Atsuro wasn't sure about until he repeated it in Japanese.
"Hey, we should go get Duel Disks," Atsuro said to Sugoroku. "I-I mean, after Kaiba and Yuugi get done up there, of course."
-------------
"Do you want to go check that way?" Minato asked. He wasn't sure what Kisa had sensed, but she seemed quite concerned.
-------------
"It's entirely possible," Abel agreed. "I don't see him giving up that information easily, though. He's never quite cooperated."
He gave a demonic smirk. "Perhaps we should force him to obey."

Kaiba looked back towards Yuugi with a frown, but it didn't quite seem angry. Questioning? He let out a huff of breath and lifted his arm up halfway, gesturing with his pointer and middle finger. The one who was supposed to get the message did, and Mokuba trotted over to his older brother. He took a few steps forward, leaving Yuugi staring at him with a firm and somewhat upset expression. The short teenager's eyes widened as Kaiba stopped and turned just his head back towards him.
"You're a fool."
And then continued on his way. Yuugi let out an extended breath he hadn't even been aware he was holding. With the immediate "danger" apparently passed, Yuugi's friends ran forward, surprising Atem. The former Pharaoh stuck his hands in his pockets and sighed, walking forward after Jounouchi, Honda, and Anzu.
"Dude, did you really have him beat?! Why'd you do something like forfeiting?!" Jounouchi asked.
"Did you see you don't have to fight, Yuugi? But... but you didn't do that with Jounouchi-kun before!" Anzu said.
"I'd like to think you had a goal..." Honda said.
"He was trying to make a point," Atem replied as he caught up to the group. Yuugi was giving a nervous smile and rubbing the back of his head over his friends inquirires. He looked towards Atem in surprise and nodded, although the Egyptian had already turned his head towards Kaiba, "I'm not sure it went entirely over his head, either...."
Sugoroku had looked towards Atsuro as he made his suggestion, which was about the same time that Yuugi's friends had rushed over to him, "I'm not much of an active Duelist these days, but it doesn't seem like a bad idea. Oi, Yuugi! Me and your other friends are gonna head over to those stalls! You coming?"
"Minato missed the end of the duel..." Ryoji said, looking to the side with a concerned expression.
"I wanna go back and check on Sensei..." Teddie said, looking behind him in the direction he knew Izanami's place to be.
----------
Kisa looked towards Minato, "I don't know if - Ah, Seto-san!"
Kaiba and Mokuba had been headed on their way out of the Shrine as Kisa had gone to answer Mokuba's question. Kaiba hadn't even appeared to see them, but at Kisa's surprised squeak he'd jerked his head to the side. Mokuba raise an eyebrow and then nudged his older brother in the side.
"So you really do know her, Nii-sama?"
Kaiba jerked his head towards Mokuba, frowning at him but not seeming exactly angry. He lifted his head back towards Kisa, "Is there a reason you're wasting my time?"
Mokuba gave an extremely exaggerated shrug in Kisa's direction., "Hey, he's not telling you to buzz off, I'd call that a chance."
The younger Kaiba was obviously enjoying himself far too much here.
----------
Seth turned his head away at Abel's smirk and rhetorical suggestion. There were things he still wasn't a large fan of, despite knowing their necessity - if it was an option Abel wanted to consider, he would not stand in his way, however. Cain smirked in response to Abel's expression and stepped forward.
"I believe he has some sort of history with Hitoshura," Cain stated, "While he's a spoiled child in terms of personality, it's still rare to see him get that worked up in public."
"Is everything alright here?"
Cain looked to the side with no look of surprise, but Seth's reflexes had his hands on his pockets... and when he saw the identity of the speaker, he kept one hand in it. Sayuri stepped out of the bushes and looked around. Her eyes paused over Cain, whose entire stance had changed to that of his physical age - and lost at that. She crouched down and gave a slight smile to Cain, the kind a mother-figure would give any child.
"I sensed a disturbance in the shrine's energy, but there doesn't appear to be any rogue spirits around," she stated. She rubbed her hand in Cain's hair for a moment before turning to Abel with a tone a bit more challenging and demanding, "And what is this child doing here?"
Seth looked towards Abel for his response. He had no idea if his King was going to go with the more stragetic bluff about knowing Cain due to his actions and the accompanying false explanation or expose Cain's facade and explain the situation. Izanami was definitely waiting for an answer and the look in her eyes indicated that her time was not to be wasted with falsities.
(OOC: FF, roll bluff! XDD /Stupid D&D joke)

Despite the serious situation at hand, Atsuro was positively giddy at the prospect of getting a Duel Disk. This wasn't like those toy ones that only the crazy otaku got. This was an actual, hologram projecting duel disk. Screw learning how to actually play, he'd just stick cards in it all of the time to make holograms.
He turned toward Teddie when he heard him speak. "Go ahead and head back to Souji, then. I'm sure he'd like more company than Ammy anyways."
------------------
Minato turned toward the duel again at Kisa's exclamation, in time to see Kaiba and Mokuba walking their way. Minato stood off to the side and them talk, even with Kaiba quickly trying to shoot Kisa down. Minato nodded toward Kisa after Mokuba shrugged.
"Yeah, keep trying," Minato said.
----------------
Abel had all intentions of continuing on with their discussion about Loki when Sayuri arrived. He turned toward her, his expression rather flat. However, he smirked a bit upon seeing her reactions toward Cain. He could use this...
"I came looking for it too, but it was gone by the time I got here," Abel said honestly. At Sayuri's second question he grinned, and it somehow seemed rather sincere.
"Can't you see the resemblance? He's my kid brother," Abel said. He bent down and picked Cain up, grinning at him. "How many times do I have to tell you not to go running after spirits?"

Teddie looked towards Atsuro and nodded, and bolted off before anyone could suggest otherwise. Ryoji turned towards SUgoroku and gave a weak grin, "I'm going to try and find Minato. I'll meet back up with you guys soon, okay?"
"I'll be right over, Jiichan!" Yuugi shouted. He looked back over towards his group of friends, who were still asking him various questions, and gave a smile, "Ah, yeah, I was trying to tell him Duel Monsters isn't for fighting."
"That guy'll never get that. He's completely obsessed!" Jounouchi insisted. He shifted his weight and looked towards Sugoroku, "You know how quickly those things sold out in our own world? Maybe we should get going."
"Yuugi, I don't get it... you're willing to fight Jounouchi-kun..."
Yuugi had begun to head over to his grandfather when Anzu asked her question. He looked at her, "That's... we fought as friends. It didn't matter who won, as long as we did our best. Kaiba-kun just wants to prove a point when he Duels..."
----------
Kisa blushed a bit as everyone except Kaiba urged her to go on, pretty much lighting up her face like a Christmas tree given how pale she was and in contrast with her hair. Kaiba frowned at the expression and she took a quick step forward.
"I-I just want to talk, Seto-san! A-About things... like what happened that one night? When you saved me when I passed out, remember?" Kisa said, "I... remember you were in trouble but there's a really big blank spot and I thought... I don't run around passing out like that, you know?"
Kaiba shot a glare towards Minato for a moment before looking back at Kisa, "It's in the past, and it has nothing to do with me now. You should be grateful I didn't just leave you there."
Mokuba put both hands over his mouth, but it didn't stop the laugh from leaking out, "You actually saved her like some kind of prince?! Are you kidding me, Nii-sama?!
----------
Cain had actually opened his mouth to respond to Sayuri's question, despite the fact that it had been aimed at Abel, when he caught Abel moving. His muscles had adjusted for the quick step backwards, but Abel's natural speed wasn't human, and so he had Cain picked up before he could object. Sayuri frowned and gave Abel a warning look. Kid brother... the child was human.
She stood up, "You expect me to believe that? He's human."
Cain gave Abel a flat look as he teased him, and given Cain's own personality, it as sign enough Abel had scored a point on teasing him. As it was now however, even with Izanami's doubt, there was no way to object to Abel's ploy without raising further suspicion. He put on a pouting face within less than a second of his flat look at Abel and wriggled a bit in the physically older man's arms.
"You told me to go off and play!"
Seth's face was probably the least convincing of the group's, but Izanami hadn't seemed to pick up on it. He... hadn't actually expected that bluff. It was the type of expression worthy of causing a sweatdrop, really. However, when Izanami voiced her doubt he turned towards her.
"So am I," Seth said. He shook his head, "That doesn't make him any less His Majesty's brother."

Atsuro listened quietly to the conversation, but at the same time he shifted uncomfortably where he stood. He really wanted to go get a Duel Disk, but it was rude to just run off on his own.
------------
Minato smiled at the glare Kaiba gave him. Kaiba needed to loosen up a little, especially with this girl so very clearly crushing on him. If he was going to keep this up, Minato was just going to keep nudging her to talking with him.
He was also totally fine with dating her too. She wasn't all that bad looking after all.
--------------
Abel lifted Cain a bit more to try and balance the boy a bit better. He was rather heavy, though with Abel's strength, it really took no effort at all to lift him. He poked Cain's forehead. "I did tell you to go and play, but that doesn't mean going and running after every spirit you come across."
He frowned at Izanami as she expressed her disbelief. Seth sprang to defend him, but Abel felt the need to add a bit more to add to the facade.
"The circumstances of my humanity are complicated and unimportant," Abel said. "What is important is that these two are my dear siblings... I'd rather you not throw around accusations about them just because I'm a demon."
He sounded quite offended...

"You can't expect him to get it all at once, Partner," Atem said, falling into step besides the shorter teenager, "...but I think you made the right choice. I couldn't have done that."
Yuugi gave a nervous laugh and looked at Atem, "I don't think Kaiba-kun got it as well as you think Atem... and what I did wasn't that big of a deal..."
"Yuugi, come on! Atsuro's going to wear out the soles of his shoes at your rate!" Sugoroku called.
Yuugi looked up from Atem before the former Pharaoh could respond, "Sorry sorry! Let's go, I think there's a stall that way! An- Jounouchi-kun, hey!"
Anzu facepalmed, "We should follow that idiot before he does something stupid..."
"You mean something more?" Honda asked.
----------
"I'm not going to be distracted by things in the past," Kaiba said to Kisa, his voice gaining a little more edge. He seemed to be growing more annoyed. Mokuba continued to snicker.
Kisa shifted her weight, "Th-then can we just talk...? Ah, maybe you could talk about Duel Monsters? I've always kind of been curious about that, and..."
"What is it you want?" Kaiba cut her off.
Kisa frowned, "I'm trying to tell you! I just want to talk!"
"Nii-sama, she's got the guts to talk to you. GIve her a break," Mokuba said, clearly starting to get a little annoyed with his brother, "She did help save me once, you know."
----------
Cain glared at Abel as he poked his forehead. There was a charade to keep up, but this was getting ridiculous. He knew there was no way he was going to get down, either. Maybe if Abel was human, but... he definitely wasn't, as Izanami had pointed out. She'd put her hands on her hips at Abel's lecture and seemed ready to retort... but closed her eyes and sighed.
"Whatever. I don't have time for this," she began walking forward, but stopped to look back towards Seth and Abel, "Keep whatever issues your 'family' has with that demon out of my Shrine."
And then she left, not allowing a retort.
"Abel put me down," Cain growled as soon as Sayuri was out of range of sight. Yeah, Abel had definitely gotten under his skin.

Minato frowned and put his hands in his pockets. "Stop jumping down her throat already. It's not like she's asking you for your autograph or something like that."
He was starting to get annoyed with Kaiba. Sure, he'd just lost a duel but she was just trying to talk to him. What did she see in this douchebag anyways?
-------------------
Abel kept his expression neutral until Sayuri left. The moment she was out of earshot, he let out a breath it seemed he'd been holding.
"I thought she'd never leave," Abel grumbled. He put Cain down at his protests, but as he did so, he smirked at the boy. He definitely knew how to get under his skin now.
