"Hai!" the young woman hiding behind her hands said. She then looked to the pair below and uttered a few words. "You two have to bring Sissy and her family back here," Kougyoku's words on this matter seemed to be final but it only made Teruko scoff. She hadn't seen her older sister in ages before this moment, even so, she knew how the young woman was. "And what are we supposed to tell her, hm? Aneki hasn't ever been much for authority, she's not going to come back because we tell her to. And if we tell her a Council wants her, she won't appear on principle. And we haven't even met her husband yet..." she said, remembering that their sister used to hide out in an oasis in the desert whenever their mother visited, simply because she didn't want to speak with her. She couldn't imagine exile had made the other woman any less disagreeable about such things.
Beyond this Kouha apparently thought near death experiences were simply a part of life and was still rather stuck on the children and mate of the eldest of her parents children. "Uh-huh, we told you that information, Kouha-kun," she muttered. The news that Koukai had been killed by Kouen was something a bit more stirring than normal. She couldn't help but go wide eyed as Kouha explained this to Akira and she looked at her own twin seemingly amazed. "En-nii killed Kai-nii a week ago," the sentence given because it seemed stunning. A week before now they'd been fighting off the man in the woods of Konohagakure. "Why?" she finally asked wanting to know what would possess anyone to kill their other half. She couldn't imagine ever wanting to.
