Suika launched a chain around him, bringing him back. "Hey, whoa, wait a minute! Where are you going? The two of us are looking for strong people to fight and someone as strong as you is bound to run into them. Do you mind if we come with you?"
Yugi said, "You took on an Oni and won fair and square. That gives you huge respect point in our book."

The chain surrounding his wings made him a bit fidgity. "Wh-whoa!" In a sad attempt to try becoming more comfortable, he fell on his end and was dragged along, soon in the presence of the two Oni. "...Join? With you?"
The stains from his glowing tears left a huge mark on his white body- but had to ignore it for the moment. "Respect? You... respect me beating you?" This was a step up- normally his fights tended to end in destroyed body parts- but this was excellent. Very excellent- He'd been on the island for quite a while- it was nice to finally make a few new friends...
He couldn't hold it back- the tears were starting to hold up in his mask. He didn't want to do it, but had no choice- Once the chain was off and his wings were spread out, he placed his hands on his mask and pulled it off- revealing his cute face, soaked with tears- and a huge scar dead center.

The Oni gasped at what was beneath the mask.
Suika said after retracting the chain, "...Huh. Yuge, he looks a little like those Kedama things from Gensokyo... eyes are kinda neat with how bright they are."
Yugi took her Sake dish back and said, "...That is a kickass scar. What's the story on that one?"

His adorable face and deep voice countered eachother somewhat severely. Wiping his tears, he began his story. "It's... rather embarrassing, looking back on it, but... It was given to me by my sister."

The two Oni sat down. Yugi was the first to speak. "Your... sister? Huh... we Oni typically don't get much in the way of siblings... the few cases I've heard of that happening, and believe me, they're very few and far between... they fight a lot... but get really strong through it."
Suika said, "I'd like to know a little more about your world, honestly... as well as why your reacted the way you did to us..."
Yugi said, "We've got all kinds of time, so there's no rush to tell."

It was easy to see on his white body, but he started blushing. "Oh, um... I've never heard anyone say something like that about Dreamland... I'm a bit flushed to hear that."
Relaxing, and putting on a face he thought made him look more menacing, he sat down. "But yes. My sister and I were training to become true knights of dreamlnad- and our final test was to face eachother. I held my own, using a sword similar to those i own now, but..." He hid his face in his wings, though he didn't sound muffled through them. "I wasn't as strong back then. She picked a lighter, slimer blade, and i... I just couldn't keep up.
"That's not what cut me, though. She eventually went mad with using Sword Beams- that technique i used on you earlier- and they were fired off at random. One of them, the strongest judging by its appearance, was sent directly toward our master, and would have severely injured him... had i not been in the way when it hit..."
He sighed. He knew he'd have to explain everything else later, but for now, he simply waited for their reply.

At the sword comments, Yugi said, "Yeah... that thing is pretty heavy. I don't think any non-Oni from our world could lift it. ...and speed is always important..."
Suika gaped slightly, "...Whoa... that's... I don't even know what to say about that..."
Yugi said, "Dreamland? Sounds sweet... but I'm guessing it's not always like that. Where there are dreams, there are nightmares, right?"

Raven nodded. "I don't remember who named the countryside that, but it is rather peaceful. Although there have been quite a few scuffles- that greedy, self proclaimed King Dedede and his sour attitude, not to mention quite a few members of the population are hostile enough to begin with. But there have been a few... incidents, let's say."
He looked to the side, staring off the mountainside into a plain. "And I've already seen a few of those residents around here- And a few... other faces as well, but that's neither here nor there.
"I'm a bit worried about one, though- Just recently, on this very side of the island, i noticed... something. A member of the Poppy clan has managed to sneak his way onto the Island, and I have no idea just where he plans on going, or what he plans on doing." He expected questions about the Poppy clan, possibly what they were or something. Finished with his tears, he put his mask back on.

Yugi laughed. "Mostly peaceful, some naturally combative people, and the occasional Incident? Sounds just like our world."
Raven was correct in his thinking. Suika asked, "Poppy? ...There's a clan named after a barbituatic flower?" Suika then started laughing, too. A thought then crossed her mind. 'Wait...how do I even know that word?'

Raven's eyes, strangely, moved to the side of the mask's eyeholes. Which was weird, considering his eyes seemed glued to that position when his mask was off. "I've never really heard of that flower, myself" he stated, unsure exactly what they were. "but that's what they tend to call themselves. They're genuine Dreamlanders, too- you can tell they belong on Planet Pop Star and the surrounding planets."
Without any form of warning, a Bomb dropped in from above. "Oh no- Not here!" Getting up from his seating position, Raven hurled a sword beam directly at the fuse- cutting it in half. As the now dudded bomb hit the ground, a shriek came from higher up the mountain's side. "Reveal yourself, Junior! I know you're there!"
Not listening, the newcommer began whistling. Raven face masked- "That moron doesn't seem to realize it's obvious birds don't chuck old fashioned grenades."

The Oni jumped to attention at the bomb dropping. "Is that so?" Yugi replied. "
Suika merely fumed at the bird, shaking her fist. "You damn bird! You made me spill my sake!" It was true; when she jumped up, her uncorked gourd had spilled. Granted, it was basically bottomless, but still! It was a waste of perfectly good sake!
Suika turned to Raven and said, "May I punch him?"

Raven's wings fluttered. "I'd prefer you didn't. If you're as strong as your friend, you'd suffocate him quickly." Soaring straight into the air, Raven slashed at a few pieces of the terrain- making it fall apart instantly, and tumbling a small purple clownlike thing down to their level.
"Poppy Brother Junior." Raven huffed on the way back down. "How ironic you should come when I mention your species."
He looked left and right in a true fizzy- He saw some of the fight, he knew perfectly well chucking bombs would be bad news- but he just had to do it anyway. Why? Because it was just harmless fun... Atleast, the Poppy's thought so. "Uuuhhh..." he gasped, a bit exasperated. He slowly backed up against the wall, sweat pouring down his body as his hands suddenly appeared from pretty much nowhere- and not attached to his body. "....WAAAAAUUUUUGGGGGH!"
His scream was accompanied by a barrage of bombs heading staraight in their direction- Tons of them.

Suika frowned. "Well, alright. If I can't punch him, I'll do the next best thing. NOBODY, AND I MEAN NOBODY, MESSES WITH MY SAKE!"
A card appeared in Suika's hand. "Breath: Small Oni Inhales Deeply!" Suika charged her power, a miniature black hole around her sucking up all the bombs, as well as energy danmaku. The suction stopped, she then jumped right in front of Junior, and reversed it, expelling Danmaku... and all the bombs that had been thrown.

He began to weeze when he had the chance- as much of a bomb throwing expert he was, throwing that many just... wow. "Hooo- Man that was to-uuuff..."
As soon as he noticed his bombs going into the portal he started panicing. "Aw nuts, not good!" he yelled, as soon as he saw them blasted back- with interest. Reacting with the exact same fear, he chucked just as many bombs as the ones he originally chucked- surprisingly all hitting their mark and exploding on impact, leaving a huge cloud of smoke in their wake.
"Maybe you made a (cough cough) poor move on him!" Raven gagged, trying to wipe the smoke away. But no matter what they did to clear the smoke away, it all ended with the same result- an empty wall where Poppy bro. Jr. was originally standing.

Suika said, "Oh, no he doesn't!" Another card appeared in her hand. "If he's anywhere even remotely near here, this'll catch him! Gather Sign: Throwing Mt. Togakushi!" Suika jumped into the air, spinning her arm around; rocks and various other things were gathered, forming a large amalgam of debris.
She then threw it right into the mountainside.
