Hashimoto, you arrive on the roof just in time to see the oni bounding away from a nearby roof, sailing perhaps twenty or twenty five feet to land with a crunch on the next roof. In moments it is leaping again, its great bounds carrying it away far faster than you can persue it. As you watch it's path, a movement at the ground catches your eye ... a figure hiding in the shadows across the street, also watching the oni.<br/><br/>Apparently noticing you, he bows, then turns and heads up the alleyway behind him. As he passes through an errant shaft of moonlight, you are able to get a reasonable look at him. He wears a simple vest and pants, and even at this distance you can make out his shaved head, and the forms of several tattoos upon his body. Across his back is what appears to be a sheathed katana in a blue saya.<br/><br/>An ise zumi with a sword?
