She had kept her standard kimonos and the school uniforms, of course, but had increased the variety of her wardrobe with a fair assortment of more modern clothing. Such as the black slacks and pale blue sweater that she was wearing at the moment. The thick, woolen coat was also new.
She sighed as she stepped out of the restaurant, thanking the hostess and waiter appropriately as she did so. Spaghetti was such an intriguing dish, she'd have to try it again sometime later.
Just walking along the street among other people was pleasure that Kodachi had not previously known. She had always remained alone in her home if not on some self-appointed mission.
Today, and for several previous days of late, the experience was not comforting. The people were tense and watching their backs for any sort of sign of violence.
As Kodachi felt a buzzing in her head, she realized that they were about to get just that. She scanned about the streets, mostly in the direction of her buzzing, and tried to find a place without people where she could change in private.
Then she saw what was causing the warning.
"Kodachi Kuno, in the name of the Lord Kuno," Ittan-Momen declared as her arm stuck basic tile in the kitchen. "I shall destroy you!"
Kodachi frowned and dodged around the creature's attack. A second punch, however, struck her full in the stomach, blowing the air out of her lungs momentarily.
The smirking Azusa advanced on the momentarily stunned gymnast and snickered as she attacked. Kodachi hastily tried to get out of the way, but found that the action was unnecessary.
Ittan-Momen stood above her still, and entangled in webs. Kodachi blinked in confusion, and for a moment panicked as she feared that she herself had produced the web, in public.
"That's hardly a way to introduce yourself to someone," a male voice said in English as Ittan-Momen was pulled back away. "Maybe you should have a lesson in manners."
Kodachi looked to the sound of the voice and found, to her surprise saw a man clinging to a wall in a manner similar to her, and gripping the weblines that had been used to entangle Ittan-Momen.
"You'll pay for this!" the cloth-like creature declared angrily as she pulled at the threads entangling her and tore them free from her body.
