One of Zero's knives suddenly went flying at the young man as he attacked, the demon never breaking his stare from Seven's even for the pain as he readied himself to crush her attempts to hold him. Seven was struggling to keep him frozen, her breath coming more raggedly at the effort it took to hold Zero's power back.
Yoruichi had jumped as her phone suddenly vibrated, the teen fumbling in her pocket for a few seconds before she got a hold on the device and pulled it out. She flipped it open, the words 1 new message glaring at her from the screen. She pressed a few buttons, frowning as the message came up. "I've found Zero," she muttered, as if saying the words out loud would help her understand. At Ira's sudden intake of breath, Yoruichi looked up. The younger demon was staring at her with a strange mixture of hope and fear. "It's almost over," the redhead murmured. "The only question is...how did it happen so fast?" Yoruichi had to crack a small smile. "That's life," she said. "It throws things at you with little to no warning." Ira stared at her for a minute before she smiled back faintly. "I guess that's true," she said, looking back at the message Yoruichi had gotten and resolving to thank Gaara for everything when he got back.
