[Semi-Open] A fresh set of scales.

Hands deep in his coat pockets. Brows furrowed.

"How...vexing" He'd murmur. "Are you certian about this?" They had been walking for hours. Monsters have been in and out of sight. Venosnaker becoming restless as well as his other two contact beasts.

Hands in her sweater pockets as she listened to him. Unable to meet his eyes at first until he moved to bend down...

Her heart racing. Compa stares at him. The man everyone was right about. The man who murdered his own family as well as her mother.

The silence in the kitchen was deafening. Red eyes welling up with tears for a number of reasons. The weight of what she knew overloading her train of thought.

Taking a step toward him, arms move to wrap around him to settle on his shoulders, a syringe in her hand.

"Takeshi...You're a liar" stabbing the needle into the base of his neck and pushing the stopper all the way down before she hastily backstepped from him.

He would move to lift her up, relief washing over him....

Until she spoke.

Eyes narrow and before he could utter any turn of praise he felt the poke of the needle.

He shoves her, confusion giving way to anger. "You..." Shaking his head as his vision split. The world rolling as he shakes his head and tries to keep focus.

"What is this..? Compa..." Reaching for her before he collapsed on the tile with a crash.

A sob as she watched him hit the floor.

He was hit with a powerful sedative so she had to act fast. Jumping over his stilled frame, she ran to her bedroom and grabbed any articles of clothing she could before tossing off any reflective items. Her hair clips, belts... all on the bed.

She couldn't take her potions or concoctions as they were encased in glass. She'd have to start over wherever she was going.

Running back to the kitchen to gather the handheld from the counter and some spare food, Compa looked at the man who she was once inseparable with one last time and started her journey to flee Planeptune. No weapon, nothing that cast a reflection because she knew when he woke up it was over.
