The clang of metal resounded through the move as the mirrored knives clashed, though the clanging didn't happen quite often enough to signal that Aiden was getting better at guarding, cuts were appearing all over and his good arm was tiring. He needed help, even if the only help available was the redhead... "Minori!" He barked. "He's DEAD! He's not going to wake up!" As much as he hated breaking it to the younger Ookami, there was no way he could win this fight on his own. "You need to stay strong, that's what he'd want! Help me ki-"
There was a yowl that cut off his words as Puff pulled out a pair of smaller knives and jabbed them into Aiden. One in his right shoulder, the other in his thigh. The Ookami dropped the machete and staggered backwards, pain throbbing through his body.
let me out i can beat him i can win i will win and tear his head of and gut him make him hurt and pay and cry for what he's done let me out let me out LET ME OUT
Puff swung his machete lazily. "I hope the pair of you taste as sweet as the blond one does..." Puff commented. "I think little sister and I will make a feast out of you and what other friends you brought here." He smiled. "And maybe even Mommy, daddy's gotten awfully bored lately, you think he'll let me eat her? Or maybe he'll fuck her in front of your Jack as he bleeds out on the floor..." The red-splattered man's grin could slice steel. "I suppose I'll find out once I'm finished here..."

Aiden's voice was able to snap Minori out of it and back into reality. This monster... he KILLED Matsuda! He twitched when he heard what Puff was saying, and when he mentioned 'Taru the way he did...
That bastard was dead.
The redhead bolted while the albino still had his back turned on him, and in an instant he had jumped on his back. He used one arm to latch around Puff's neck and his other hand was pulling at his mess of white hair. It was obvious Minori was no experienced fighter, but he had to do SOMETHING DAMMIT!!!

Puff's eyes widened as surprise and he stumbled as his air intake was abruptly cut off. He snarled and clawed at the arm. He couldn't slash at the redhead, he was in too awkward a position. Damn! How had the scared little shrimp gotten any courage back at all!?
Aiden's right arm was bleeding and the numbness was fading from it, flaring up with pain instead. He grabbed the fallen Machete again and stumbled over. "This is for Matsu." He growled between clenched teeth as he slashed open Puff's abdomen. The white suit blossomed red as the blood poured, gushing and running freely out of the lunatic's scored stomach.
Puff howled in pain as Aiden slashed again, this time on his chest. This wasn't good pain, this was DEATH pain! This HURT hurt! He fell to his knees as the blood flowed out, jostling the redhead off of his back as he did so. He coughed, more red coppery-tasting liquid coming out of his throat and splattering on the ground. He wanted big brother. He wanted big brother to come and make things better and he wanted him NOW.
Aiden stepped back and watched as Puff fell to the floor in a pool of his own blood, the psychopath keened softly and Aiden could nearly make out words, a person's name, before the white-haired man quieted and fell silent.
The machete dropped to the blood stained floor and Aiden dropped to his knees and heaved as the situation crashed down on him. Everything smelled like blood and death, his own hands and face were covered in the foul smelling liquid, and the though only made him puke again.

Minori fell off of the psychotic Tora and into a puddle of blood that he wasn't quite sure who it belonged to. Either way, he was covered in someone else's blood and it smelled awful. As if that wasn't enough, seeing and hearing Aiden puke only brought upon the same reaction from the redhead. He was shaking, and his head hurt from everything despite his serious lack of injuries compared to Aiden.
The redhead stayed on his spot on the floor, he couldn't force himself to get up if he wanted to. He wrapped his arms around himself and curled into a tight ball and started sobbing, occasionally calling out Matsu's name. He was suppose to come and make everything feel better, like when they were kids...

Aiden panted and spat the remaining bile out of his mouth. He rose to his feet shakily, they needed to get moving. He certainly needed medical attention, and Minori... Minori needed a hug from someone like Keisko. For now, however, he would have to make do with one from Aiden instead. "Mini," He began softly, using a voice he often used when coaxing Anya to sleep. "Mini, you need to get up..." He took a knee by the redhead and placed a hand on his shoulder, they didn't have time for this right now. After... after they got out Minori could cry his eyes out if he wanted to, but that was then, this was now. "Please, we need to get Matsu out of here..." He wasn't letting Matsuda rot in the same puddle of filth as the albino if he could help. "I can't carry him on my own right now, Mini."

Minori felt the hand on his shoulder, and the words were slowly sinking into his head. He was right, 'Suda needed to be taken out of here. But Keis... how was SHE going to feel?
The redhead slowly sat up, then got on his feet, rubbing off the tears that still hung on his face. "Right, okay." he agreed numbly. He walked over to where his cousin was laying, reaching down and shutting his eye closed. "... I always wanted to be like him, since I was a kid." This bit of information was something he knew everyone knew, but he'd never gotten to say it himself. "I looked up to him... he was my hero."

Aiden grimaced as he tugged the two small daggers out of his thigh and shoulder and shambled over, listening to Mini was almost difficult. He had never been good with feelings of any sort, but he would try for the redhead and the memory of the blond. "He knew." Aiden assured softly. "And you're well on your way to being like him, you just saved my life, after all." And, he mused, in a way, so had Matsu. Who knew what he would have done if the blond hadn't been there for him when he woke up all those months ago...
"C'mon." He nudged verbally, gently. "Let's get him out of here." Aiden lifted Matsuda up off the floor a little, thankfully the blood over here seemed to be all of the grey-eyed corpse's own. The gouge on the man's torso was deep, and Aiden could nearly feel the organs squishing around and trying to slip out. "Help me get him onto my back, you're in charge of doors." He had a feeling that having your older cousins entrails squishing on you was something Minori would never want to feel, so Aiden would take that job upon himself.

Minori nodded, beginning to feel the overall numbness sink in more and more. He helped get Matsu on Aiden's back, and once that was done he made his way to the door and kept it wide open for Aiden as he carried his cousin's body out. He couldn't help but think of Keisko, and 'Taru. They were who Matsu had meant in his last words, maybe Aunt Akane too-
Oh god, how was he going to tell everyone? Should he tell Uncle Yutaka too? He shook his head before anymore questions could come across him and probably mess him up even more. They weren't out of the woods yet after all.

Aiden Staggered out of the room, careful to not knock Matsuda or himself on anything as he went. How the hell would he explain this to everyone? To ANYONE? Keisko would need to know... And Jack was close to him... So was Madoka (he was terrified of telling Madoka, she had lost far too much in her short life)... How would HOTARU take the news? She escaped only to wind up with a dead brother? A brother that she was close to? What kind of a trade off was that!?
He continued mentally beating himself up as he went down the halls. Dammit, he should have DONE something... Minori wasn't great with combat, he didn't expect him to be able to react in time, he should have been on Matsuda's other side and then lunged at Puff when he moved. He could have charged and drawn attention to himself. He could have taunted and kept the albino's interest until Matsu had a chance to kill the bastard...
He could have done SOMETHING...
