Leonora walked towards the petting zoo watching the various families and kids running from pen to pen, laughing and petting the various beasts. "That is kind of sad...seeing these beasts in pens." She spoke to herself leaning on a railing of one pen with a sigh "Why do i feel like i relate to these animals so well." She spoke to herself shaking the thoughts from her head. She needed to find Taiyo. She could have sworn if she was his ex that she always visited the animals first then the eggs. But why weren't they here? did she not think them to follow the same schedule as they tend to? [break][break] She looked at the cage infront of her watching the large red bird looking down at her. "Your just like me arnt you?" she asked the bird knowing it wasn't going to respond or interested in her words as she was just someone on the other side of the bars. She sighed looking at the bird before moving away, moving deeper within the petting zoo area. She was curious where Her cousin was but also where her little brother was and what he was doing. She scratched her head as she walked waving at her fellow members [break][break]

Ryoshi glanced around as he saw the animals and sighed as he saw that most of them were rather plain and not many were inherently dangerous and he felt himself get a bit annoyed since it wasnt as thrilling as he was expecting, he glanced a bit more and saw a red haired woman who seemed a bit lost in her own world and he smirked a bit as he approached, with his advanced hearing he caught her mentioning that she felt sad these beasts were in pens and she even mentioned that even she felt like them as well which caused ryoshi to get a wicked thought”heh even a beast is easy to control with the proper guidence and she might be an interesting little puppet” he thought as he saw her starting to talk to a red bird sitting in the cage and he spoke once he got close enough. He noticed she was rather pretty but he got the sense she had some decent power to her as well.
“people commonly restrain things that they fear or cannot control beasts are a good example” he said his tone polite as he walked up beside her looking at the beast as well.”but often those beast end up freed sooner or later and said people end up learning the hard way” he explained glancing at her, subtly near her feet was a small flash from Ryoshis aura but he made it in a way to make sure that she didn't suspect him and the pulse was in such a way that catching it with her eyes would mess with her brain slightly making her more supportable to his words. As he waited for her answer he glanced at her then at the bird.
Leonora watched the bird closely, allowing her thoughts to remain within the depths of it's feathers. mana beasts were so interesting. They were basically living mana in beast form. How cool can this world really be. it was saddening seeing such beasts as prize possessions or trophies. She knew many nobles bought the more timid ones for their little ones but there were darker ones that will serve no one other then the strong. Her train of thought returned to reality upon the subtle sound of footsteps.
[break][break] Sure she was in a public place and watching various kids and families enjoy the petting zoo, however these steps were coming towards her and soon a mysterious voice followed after them. Further adding to her comment of her feelings towards the beasts and reflection upon herself. She looked over her shoulder at the guy taking in his various features as she was interested why someone like him was interested in speaking with her randomly. She listened to the comments as she nodded "True. As much as most wants a Manabeast. Someday these too will be discarded when their owner is done playing with them. "She Spoke "Then off to the market they go, or being killed. "She said with a dismissive flick of her wrist as she turned towards him feeling the subtle flash of his aura catching her eyes. She rubbed her eye out of instinct not thinking much of anything but maybe some light catching some metal just right. Maybe if this wasn't a well populated and public event she might not have her guard down but there was nothing to fear of anyone in such a place populated by magic knights. She turned herself fully towards him folding her arms under her chest while leaning on her left hip. She looked him up at down before allowing her eyes to rest on his face " I am not accustomed to remembering faces or even acknowledging others as I more prefer more action based interactions. However it is rude of me not to give my name. I'm Leonora." She spoke before looking back to the bird behind her "Are you enjoying this festival by chance?" She asked
[break][break] Suddenly she turned her attention to a angry shout of a small child a few pens away. While she wasn't one to pay attention to kids, it was easy to tell it was a noble man's brat. The kid was indeed spoiled and man was the butler at their side more likely to be going deaf within the next few months from the kids whining.
[break][break] "Now that is not recommended -" stated the butler attempting to calm the kid down
"If I cant have it! No one will!" yelled the kid in frustration opening a pen that held 3 ram homed mana beasts that quickly took the opportunity to escape. the butler jumped back in shock as the kid ran off opening more pens
[break][break] "Oh geez." Stated Leonora face palming herself. As much as she didn't want to stop enjoying her conversation with the male. She had duties as a noble woman, and as a vermillion as well as a Crimson Lion. "At least these are the smaller animals but they can't run free" She said with a sigh [break][break]

Ryoshi saw her turn to look at him over her shoulder and resisted the urge to smirk as she mentioned that most people who wanted mana beast often ended up discarding them and the saddest part was that they were then either killed or sold to the market, Ryoshi was now beside her as he took in her words, as she rubbed her eye in response to his aura flash he internally grinned before he spoke.”true most spoiled people dont think about such things they just want the shiny toy right here and now but sadly not much can be done” he explained before she would turn to him and he responded in kind leaning against the fence, his aqua eyes focused on her as she introduced herself as Leonora and mentioned she was not normally one for conversation or remembering faces but she didnt want to be rude as she said her name, Ryoshi nodded back to her an understanding look on his face as he would respond back
“A pleasure Leonora I'm Ryuuma and so far I'm enjoying this Festival better then the last one I went to, I was in the cooking competition and some airhead went to the whole effort of cooking and then left before even being judged” he said chuckling at the end since the black bull who had been competing had been a joke in all honesty, Ryoshi bit back a wince as he suddenly caught the sound of shouting very clearly due to his enhanced hearing and as he looked at where the sound came from he let out a sigh of annoyance, hearing his companion voice her irritation as well he spoke up.”I hope that childs disciplined after we deal with the beasts” he stated as he would move forward while the beasts were running rampant, as he moved forward another aura flash would happen near Leonoras feet again again being mistaken as a glint of metal and its true purpose hidden as the aura mage would move infront of one, his eyes would slit and the whites of his eyes turning black as wicked looking greaves form on his feet as he suddenly bolted forwards and before the beast could get anymore momentum he quickly grabbed its horns and would slam his clawed foot back into the dirt causing him and the beast to come to a grinding hault as one of the tamers would come and grab it.”thats one down” he said before noticing his coat had come open revealing his bare chest to the world but he didnt bother closing it up yet since there were more beasts that needed to be taken care of
Leonora watched him taking in his words as they seemed oddly on point. She nodded "That is just the way we nobles are. Or I should say most nobles. I never need such things cause for me i enjoyed the heat of battle with shiny toys then those i had to tend to." She commented As her pinkish purple magenta eyes watched his own as he leaned back against the fence, seeming content to conversate with her. She let out a light laugh at the comment of last years cooking competition "it is a pleasure to meet you Ryuuma. That sounds funny and would have been a site to see, thought black bulls arnt known for wanting to follow social norms." She replied
[break][break] She followed suit after him him. stopping for a few seconds seeing yet another glint seem to catch her eye again shaking her head not seeing anything that would make the flash again. Returning to her train of thought she continued her pursuit of Ryoshi to the Problem as she saw him immediately spring into action before hearing a scream of a child as she turned to see the child being the same noble brat to have unleash the beasts, fall on the ground infront of one of the rams.
[break][break] "Great. Hold on kid." She spoke before she lifts her left foot and moves it behind her right ankle, allowing her left foot's toes to tapping against her right heel twice. Two Snow White flame-lit feathers form on either side of her ankles as she bent her knees before taking off forward Catching up to the ram with ease before moving past it as she suddenly slid to a stop, bending down low as she scooped the kid along the way. She quickly recovered putting the kid behind her as she remained crouch eye level with the ram before she locked her hands against it's horns, holding her ground against the creature. Getting scooted back a bit more before a tamer made it over to her, retrieving the mana beast back to its pen as she stood up wincing some as she looked over her shoulder seeing her back scrapped some from that stunt "That is gonna burn in the morning." She said to herself rolling her shoulder blades moving forward leaving the kid she saved in shock as she looked at the pens "One more ram and now three bunnies." She spoke noticing a smaller pen opened, reading the sign next to it.
[break][break] "Really bunnies... God those things are such a pain to hunt but trying to catch." She groaned bouncing on the balls of her feet. "Lets see if I am rusty or not." She muttered looking around at the grass around the area. She continued her moved past the various groupings of either scared childern clinging to their parents or on lookers curious of the commotion as she looked around a tree finding two of the rabbit mana beasts, catching ahold of them before they could escape her "Stop moving...You need to calm yourselves." She spoke to the mana beasts, remaining gentle but form in her grasp, soon letting go once the pen keepers moved over to her.
[break][break] "There that leaves what a Ram and a Rabbit?" She spoke in thought looking around only to see a Ram standing across the zoo from her, running it's hoof against ground before taking off towards her. "Crap." She whispered already feeling her body wanting to relax as she watched it race at her. [break][break]

Ryoshi listened to her as she explained that she was never one to really want to be spoiled and that she enjoyed the thrill of battle more which made him nod in agreement.”nothing wrong with enjoying battle the thrill of a fight and the rush you feel its always enjoyable despite what others may say” he said though his tone was calm there was strength and charisma in it and while it was subtle it still held great influence to those that would listen to him. As she laughed and said she was glad to meet him and that the cooking compitition sounded funny though she mentioned that black bulls were not exactly known for social norms. At that comment Ryoshi snickered a bit as a smirk appeared on his face.”I agree though even then this man seemed like to be a few marbles short in the intellegence department good for a human shield but not for battle strategy if you will pardon my words” he said showing he didnt mean any insult but it was clear the man had been a bit of a simpleton when it came to brains if he didnt even stay to see the results.
It seemed that Leonora had managed to deal with many of the other mana beasts when they had been unleashed but as they rounded them up only two remained a rabbit and a ram, out of the corner of his eye Ryoshi had spotted the rabbit and he quickly dashed forward chasing it and was making sure to stay up with it before with one quick push from his legs he reached out and snatched it by the back of the neck rendering it harmless and unable to move as he shrieked in panic.”Gotcha now calm down” he said as he would see the beast start to calm before he passed it to a tamer then his eyes caught sight of the ram that started to rush at her, he quickly kicked off the ground and dashed forward his clawed feet digging gouges into the earth as he managed to get up to the ram and quickly grabbed its horns before slamming his feet and used the momentum to spin the beast out of its run and quickly pushed its head to the ground stopping it cold without harming it.”and thats all of them” he said as he used another aura pulse near the red haired womans feet again to subtly continue his little game”you ok Leonora?” he asked as he only moved off the beast after the tamer had managed to corral it once more.

[attr="class","Leoscroll"] Leonora was ready to take on the ram coming at her, keeping low even if she wasn't able to keep a strong foundation to possibly take on the boar. At least she was expecting to take on the boar first, however she was taken by surprised of Ryuuma getting in-between herself and the boar, Digging his feet into the ground, stopping the boar in its tracks. getting it halted and held till the tamers could get ahold of the boar bringing it back into its pens. [break][break] She blinked having to turn her head getting hit by the glint again of his aura. She looked around still unable to find the sudden flashes of light as she turned her attention back to him as she stood up flipping her hair behind her shoulder as she looked away " I am fine and I could have taken that Boar myself..."She muttered "But thankyou for taking care of it for me."She commented moving over to him "Well do you have further plans into this event? I wouldn't mind if you wish to accompany me. I was originally looking for my cousin but I am sure he is chasing around that ex of his." She said shrugging. [break][break] She didn't mind having more company as if she couldn't keep her cousin from being a utter stupidly obsessed male over a lesser royal that literally tore into him on his own place. She had to play baby sitter and enjoyed the attempt at playing to good older cousin. It was all too exhausting, Leonora would rather go skinny dipping in a hot spring in a grand mana zone then play house with a family that couldn't contain the wild younger generation. [break][break]

Ryoshi heard Leonora explain that she she could have taken the boar herself but she did thank him for taking care of it, to which the aura mage mearly nodded in understanding “I have no doubt that you could but I was already on the move so I figured it was a good use of my speed” he explained since while his aura spell was in effect his speed and strength made him a brutal force to contend with even a boar such as before was something he could easily handle. Ryoshi glanced to the child that had caused all this and he internally sighed at the pain one single brat had caused but he couldnt move to deal with it as it would blow his cover and he didnt need any heat on him at current but perhaps further down the line some ill fortune would blow their way. He flicked his arms and his aura that was around him faded away almost like flickering azure flames.
It was then that Leonora asked if he had other business in the event and Ryoshi thought for a moment before nodding.”I was going to check a few more things out and I wouldn't be opposed to company I believe I saw an egg hunt going on perhaps thats something we can join in on?” The white haired man would suggest since it would give reason for them to stick together and more opportunity to let him mess with her mind since so far she hadnt caught on to his tricks and if he had his way it would remain that way since he wanted to make sure his pawn didnt get wise.

[attr="class","Leoscroll"] Leonora smiled with a nod "thankyou for saving me regardless" she spoke to him again as she thought about it " Well I was suppose to meet my younger cousin Taiyo here along with Leona but I am sure he is doing his usual 'hunt' of sorts I suppose." She said in thought out loud " You know I will join you on the egg hunt. Sounds like a lot more fun if you ask me."She said with a shrug as her magenta eyes watched the kid the threw the tantrum as she shaked her head " Any family worth their salt will see to it he gets the proper punishment. My family might be wild but not even we would do such a thing." She said turning away walking towards the exit of the petting zoo before she looked over her shoulder at Ryoshi [break][break] " Well what you say Ryuuma, Think you can beat me at finding some eggs? While finding eggs are fine it is normally silently acknowledged the adults are to find the more difficult eggs given that the easier ones are for the kids to find and feel accomplished." She instructed " When I last did the egg hunt ages ago I found 30 as a child...So wanna make a bet of sorts of whoever gets more? "She asked with a smirk.
