Saki stayed back keeping an eye on Seraphina. "He likes you I hope you know." She looked at her bandaged wound making sure the bleeding had stopped. "Don't tell him I said that. I would never hear the end of it." Pyro jumped up to the wounded girl curling up beside her warming to a comfortable degree. "If you mind Pyro I can get her to get down."

Their mother looked up from her work on the maid's wound and smiled softly, eyes tired and wet with unshed tears.
"Something to do-" she turned her head and noticed her husband carrying two injured servants on his broad shoulders. "I'm sorry dear, hold on a moment." After making sure the injured servant was well taken care of she made her way over to the new arrivals, wiping the blood idly on the front of her dress.
Salem had plucked Col from the ground and now had the boy wrapped up in his arms, the ember eyed calgor's head tucked under his brother's chin, Dysis clutching his pant leg as they walked towards the maid and Shizuo.

The female calgor looked towards Saki before looking up at the ceiling. Even in her alcohol addled mind she understood who Saki was alluding to. "I won't tell and she's no trouble."

"How are the little ones Salem." He looked down at the little kids around the young boy. "Looks like this guy really wanted you gone." Shizuo whispered to the young man avoiding any unwanted worry from the children.

"They're doing pretty well all things considered," Salem said, relief evident in his voice as he hugged both of his siblings a bit closer. Dysis buried her face into his side and glanced up at Shizuo. He whispered back. "Somehow I think this was just a warning..."

"You guys need to hide out for awhile." He noticed the girl looking up at him. "Hey there.... I think we have met before." Shizuo held out his hand to the small girl. "Your brother really cares for you by the way. Speaks highly of you all the time."

Salem had to agree with that, they would need a safe place to hide until all of this was over with and they had Blitz back. At least, he hoped they had Blitz back by the end of this...
Dysis nodded when he said that they'd met before. Tentatively she reached out her hand and touched his, a watery smile on her face at his words about her older brother.

"Ah let's get those tears away." He wiped the girls watery face with his thumb. "I need you to be strong alright? Can you do that for me?" Shizuo smiled at the girl rubbing the top of her head.

Dysis nodded. She realized that she did need to be for the rest of her family. They couldn't focus on finding Blitz if she was crying all the time.

"That's a good girl." He gave her head one final pat before standing up. "Salem you should get your kid siblings out of here. Find something to occupy their time. Get them away from all this carnage."

Pyro warmed up quickly next to the wounded calgor. "What happened?" She finished her inspection of the wound and took a seat next to her. "Why did this.... Deluge come after you? And why did he take Burner?" Saki was full of questions without any of them really being answered.

Salem ushered his younger siblings towards a less crowded area. Col's arms were tight around his neck. Unbelievably so. Bringing his free hand up he rubbed along the raven haired boy's spine, trying to calm him as best as he could. It didn't work. Whipcord muscles held firm to the point that Salem thought he was going to actually cut off his oxygen.
"He's going to do bad things..." Colburn whispered into Salem's ear, voice trembling. "Bad...bad things...I saw it...."
"What did you see?" Salem asked gently. Colburn didn't talk and to hear him after so long was strange, and terrifying in a way. At Salem's question however, he grew silent again, and his grip eased up.
When they arrived at a nearby shop the youngest of the Restins was asleep-Salem's doing-and both Salem and Dysis took a seat at a table.

"It goes back to a couple of years ago..." the calgor said softly. "It was just after Blitz's master was killed...he made poor decisions. Even I don't know all the details, but he somehow ended up working for Deluge for a short time...He managed to get out of it but now for one reason or another Deluge is interested in him again. Maybe it's to keep him quiet or perhaps he wanted a new test subject...As for why he came after me, I was in the way along with the rest of our family not to mention we are nobility and with the attack on not only our home but others it will definitely cause panic and unrest."
She sincerely hoped they were alright.

"Don't worry. I'm sure Shizuo and Salem will go after him. I'll help them even." She smiled down at the older girl trying her best to comfort her. "I owe Burner one anyway."

Seraphina closed her eyes briefly and smiled softly. "That's good to know."
