Director Shiraishi sighed, giving Arisa a grim nod as she turned towards Sheila who nodded as well. It would be a two-Hunter team, Arisa and Sheila heading into a section of the sewers while others do likewise, and a bulk of Hunters remain to defend the city. From the park, they could see a swirl of black as the Shadow made its influence known. It would be a tough battle, but only the Shadow Hunters were equipped with the skills to push them back!<br/><br/><hr/><br/>The sewers. Nasty places crawling with bugs, sewage, and other undesirables. However, everything seemed still this day, as a thick fog swirled around Arisa and Sheila as they entered. Sheila's staff glowed softly, an orb emanating soft light which seemed to gift them a sense of protection as well as healing. Even if Arisa ached where she was forcefully violated earlier, she could walk and run as usual, as if little effect was caused on her.<br/><br/><strong>"We're at a crossroads..."</strong>Sheila whispered, taking care not to speak loudly lest their voice be carried along the sewers.<strong>"We have the option of north, south, east and west... I sense a dark presence towards the East, but the last reported position of prisoners seem to be leaning towards the south... Arisa, where would you want to go?"</strong>
