"We've hung out, sure, while you two were out fighting the city," Yuyu responded to Joy.  "He's...you know, alright," she fidgeted a little.  "They'd told me he was big, but I didn't think anyone could get to be the size he is..."  When Joy suggested that the two of them go 'patrolling,' she went a little red.  Thankfully, the Fire Aspect was saved by Aika's intervention.  "Yes, we have to finish what we've started.  At the same time..."  She considered both dealing with the Soul Stealers, as well as the Azure Riders.  The Mugen was not wrong; the storekeeper couple had more or less said that the Riders were actively terrorizing anyone who tried to speak up against them, whereas Yamashita's men...they were technically stealing the cars of street racers, but that wasn't actively harming anyone physically...<br/><br/>"Maybe not," she conceded.  "What we need at this point are allies.  We know that there's the Sky-Fire and Shattering Protectors.  We gave the Fangs a broken nose and two black eyes today; they're on the defensive at this point in their district.  If we can find them, then maybe we can see about branching out.  There's also Genjo; he still has to be somewhere here in the city, the question is where...?"  As he was, he wouldn't have gone to Inayama Island alone - that was basically the heart of enemy territory here in Hisashiro.  "I had to guess; he's either in the Business or Industrial Districts.  But if we get more help, then we might be able to see about pushing back across multiple fronts."<br/><br/>"Or at least," Yuyu interjected, "ensuring that the gangs aren't making more victims!"  Aika nodded.  "I think that's the best spend of our time the next few days; trying to chase down the two potential allies we know about, and maybe seeing about finding some more."
