Upon receiving the signal, he sighed in relief as his hopes was for Kyoshi to intervene. Plus, his hand and torso were cooking here, and he was cursing mentally because of it. It hurt, the burns were getting worse, at least that's what it felt like to him. Releasing the Yokai, feeling the bless of relief of the burning no longer becoming worse on his hand, he leaped back as best as he could all the while hugging his chest with one arm and burying his opposite hand in his armpit, trying to soothe them.
Upon landing on the ground, he sunk down on one knee, taking deep breathes thinking that might help dull the pain as well. He had to say, the demon known as Kirin was pretty impressive even when half restricted, and when his throat was at death's grip. But at that point, if you would rather live, it'd be better to shut the hell up and give up if that is a choice. He gazed at Kirin, watching him curiously with a smirk on his face, letting out a snicker before finally speaking.
"Decent, but he is going to get himself easily killed."

With a not so graceful whoop, Kirin fell down on the ground, particularly on his ass. Ow, that hurt. It wasn't easy to focus, and for a while he didn't get why the demon let hjm go, until he remembered hearing a voice...a familiar one actually. That sparked interest. Even though he didn't feel too well, he looked up, looking for the source. ... ... ... Oh, shit.....This wasn't good. No, not good at all. But wait....those two knew each other? Seriously WTF?
Meanwhile, Kiyoshi was perfectly amused, seeing, Kirin splattered on his ass. He had to say that he looked funny like that. And, yeah, he noted Kirin staring at him, but he chose to talk to Uzochiko first.
''Perhaps, but he has some useful qualities. When he doesn't lose his head in battle....''
Yeah, and that like, happened often. Then again, Kirin didn't participate in fighting often.
''Ugh, what the hell is going on here?''
Kirin finally asked, totally confused as to what was going on. Perhaps, this was some weirdo hallucination from the poison...who knew?

He smirked at the remark, so the guy loses his head in battle huh. That's not good, it leaves an easy opening for one and it shows weakness, thus giving the opponent the advantage and sometimes allowing them to kill you in one fatal assault. Luckily, it was rare that this happened to Uzochiko.
It seemed the Yokai was confused as to what was going on, very much as he was asking them to their faces plus he was questioningly looking at Kiyoshi. Well, maybe if he knocks him on his ass again he'll realize, hehehe. Nah, that'd be a bad idea, he doesn't feel like fighting anymore anyways. Not with the goddamn burns inflicted on him. So, in that case, he stepped a side and cleared a path for him in case he needed a better view of Kiyoshi, or if he wanted to tread to him. Oh, but he hoped he would explain quick of that was the case, he needed the burns treated, oh god help him if he loses some of his nice, healthy, and smooth skin...! appearance mattered a lot to him these days, god knows why.

Yeah, obviously, Kirin didn't get the OBVIOUS. But that wouldn't be him, if he did, now, would it?
''Just what do you think is going on?''
''Uhh, how should I know?''
Right, Kirin was a hopeless cause when it came to things like this. He always took a great deal of time to proceed the happenings. Not that he was stupid, he was just a tad..ahem, slow. Yeah, that was the way to call it.
''And...umm.... Hi Boss.''
Sigh, honestly, Kiyoshi wondered where the hell did he get the habit of calling him boss. No matter how often he told Kirin not to, he still did. Actually, he stopped bothering a good while ago. It was no use. As they say it... You can't teach a new trick to an old dog.
''Whatever you say....I'll explain this later. Now, scram back home, find Hiruya and tell him to wait for me. And...I expect you to have your ass ready tomorrow evening, I'll need to talk to you.''
He put it together quickly, as he was in no mood to answer Kirin's dumby questions that would surely follow, and the Wolf Demon was quite burnt, and would need healing, so it'd be better to hurry it up.
''Ee..Sure Boss, I'm...going....''
He was still hurting, but he could go. It wasn't that far from here.
''Gee, someone woke on the wrong side of bed today.''

Uh oh, looks like Kirin fears his so called 'boss', as he suddenly got quiet and wasn't as determined, all talk as he was in the battle. The sight made him smirk, knowing the guy can be such a fluffy bunny. Reminds him of Miizotsu, hahaha, yep. Though, it seems the fire demon was slightly pissed off, as his tone was telling on him. He felt slightly bad for him, as his testicles must be in bad shape from that kick. He nearly offered to help him back, but the burns protested against him.
"... Agh, I hate burns... Officially... Remind me to help that male named Kirin, I think I might have broke one of his testicles..."
He joked lightly, but suddenly got serious.
"... But I used to help my mother help some men of the den..."
He doubted the Yokai would let him get ANYWHERE close to him, though, because of their bad way of meeting one another. He hoped they could start all over again and get a better view of each other, and become friends. Yes, friends... lovely, that'd be lovely. He needs more friends anyway, because his quiet nature protested against having friends, despite this he is a wicked fighter.
"... mind giving your name, I think 'fire demon'."

Help Kirin? That wouldn't be a good idea, really. He was a stubborn mule, and usually insists that he'd heal alone. He even has problems accepting their healer's help. They have to basically kick him into visiting the healer, otherwise he won't. So, there's no way he would accept help from someone foreign. Besides it was highly possible that he would be pissed at the Wolf Demon for what he's done.
''I doubt that, Kirin almost never lets ANYONE heal him. He tries to deal with it by himself. He's kind of a special case.''
Well, Kirin has already scraped himself off the ground and left, so he didn't hear their conversation anymore.
''The name's Kiyoshi Kokuryuu, and yes, I am a Fire Demon, as you so cleverly noted. Now, shall we go? Before Kirin spreads rumors about us.''
He didn't want to deal with the others after they'd find out. It'd be just a bother. And he knew a way to outrun Kirin, so they'd get there first.

So he was a fire demon after all. He though so because of his moves, skills, and environment that surrounds them. What the hell kinda other demon would hang around this kinda environment and call it home? Not him, too hazardous, wolves mostly prefer cool to mild climates.
He blinks at the rushing of the fire demon. Why was he in such a rush? Maybe because of how badly burned Uzochiko was. Or maybe it was because of what he said, he didn't want no rumors to spread from Kirin. Oh well, it could be both of all he knows. actually, he was starting to care less, he just wanted these burns treated NOW, they were slowing him down and he didn't like that, he loved his quick self, it helped him escape bad situations and have an advantage in a fight.
"Alright... Alright... Excuse me, I'm a bit slow here, so bear with me."
He said as he stumbled over to him, wincing on occasion. He felt like a goddamn cooked wolf.

Oh, well, seemed that they would be going slower. That wasn't in his plan but he'll have to deal with it. Besides, with Kirin's tardiness, it'd take him a while till he does what he was ordered to. That was a known fact. Kirin would probably say something on the matter, but it wasn't that important, even if he said bullshit. Kiyoshi could deal with it, he was already used to Kirin's ways.
''Fine. Now that I think of it, we won't really be able to move that fast, as others will probably disturb us. They always do that when they see me. How convinient....''
Yeah, he almost forgot. The fact that he was the leader meant taht almost every Fire Demon that passed by, wanted to say something to him. It ws kind of a usual routine nowadays, though it took a lot of time for him to get used to it. Now, it won't be very useful at this moment, but there was nothing he could do with it.
With that said, he began to move towards their destination, making sure that the Wolf Demon wasn't lagging behind.

He was keeping up just fine, well because his legs weren't burned or injured, or anything in that category. That was the only good thing about the burns, they didn't affect his legs. Because, again, to him, speed was everything. Breaking his legs, or inuring them, was almost like ripping apart his favorite teddy bear or toy. He'll get pissed when his legs are messed with negatively, it often lead to a punch or slap in the face, Ask his right and left hand man, that exact thing, or worse, happened to them when trying to force the wolf pelt onto Uzochiko.
Won't be able to move fast? Now what? Oh, others will disturb them, yeah, plus he'll end up getting attacked probably and suffer more burns, which will piss him off to the point the whip will be coming out. This meaning, the whip was his most deadly, or his most favored, ability, despite this he keeps it hidden until he needs to use it, or if he feels like it. He doesn't want anyone expecting his attack, hm?
It's understandable, when the members and subordinates spot the leader they may address him politely and strike up a conversation with him just so he gets a better morale from the leader, more of a reputation maybe. It wasn't really like that in the wolf demon tribe though, yes it's rare to see Uzochiko during the day but like... He's not THAT popular, for goodness sake he's just a damn brat, that's what most think.
"So I see.... As long as they don't give me anymore goddamn burns..."
He stated, slightly frustrated.

''They won't. As long as they don't want getting their asses fried.''
He stated, while steadily moving forward. They weren't far now, and it wasn't hard to make some figures in the distance out. They were moving around, probably doing their business, whatever it was. Kiyoshi was already preparing himself for this little explosion that'd happen when they notice him. Oh, well, too bad.
''Hey there, back so soon?''
A female voice came from the right side. A quick glance confirmed that it was Shakaku, in her usual bright red, attention grabbing clothing. Along with her long silver hair and green eyes, she looked like some kind of advertisment.
''Yes, as you can see....Anything you wanted?''
''I was just wondering who's this little guy.''
She pointed at Uzochiko, with a questioning glance. Figured that she'd be interested in him. He was a new face afterall. And she was the type that wanted to know everything possible. Even if it was of no use. She just didn't like the mysterious factor.
''Just a friend of mine, ok? Now, is Hiruya there? I believe I asked Kirin to fetch him, but you know what he's like.''
''He's just inside, dunno about Kirin though. Haven't seen him today.''
Nah, obviously, that sucker was probably hiding in his room now, hiding away. It was doubtful that he'd want anyone to see him it the state he's in. He wasn't important now, anyway. With that out of the way, Kioyshi continued moving forward. Shakaku followed them for some reason though, but he didn't question her. Eventually, they went through a rock path around one of the the volcanos, till they came to an opening, which looked like an entrance to a cave. He hoped that the Wolf Demon, would be fine with the fact that it was even hotter there as they were a lot nearer to the center of the volcano when they were inside.
Duh, but at least he finally saw who he was looking for. The short redheaded healer was lounging around the main hall, his grayinsh coat melting with the scenery quite well.
''Hey, Hiruya, I'd be needing your assistance. My friend here has gotten a bit singed at the edges.''
Hiruya turned to them, when he heard the words, with a curious glance towards the foreign demon, but he didn't ask about him, as he noted the burns. They weren't pretty, and he thought it'd be better to get done with them before asking about the situation.
''Sure, Kyo. Just let me get my supplies.''
He said with a gruff deep voice, and then went off to get his things, leaving the others waiting for a bit.

They were approaching a territory, a territory claimed by a breed of demon. not just any kind of demon, Kiyoshi's breed of demon. the fire demons. How'd he know? Because there were a bunch of figures roaming the ground ahead of them, and you don't find a bunch of people lurking around just ANYWHERE, especially in an environment like this. Woo, was it hot. Luckily, he wasn't sweating. He just panted on occasion. Along with that, he felt slightly dehydrated. Damn it, he wished it got a tad bit cooler.
Right when they tread further within the territory, already someone had addressed him. Some, who seemed to be a figure - A fire demon as well. Hell, who wouldn't notice her? She stood out the most of anyone he is seeing here, probably because of her eyes, and her set of attire. Hmm, didn't seem the conversation would last long, probably just a few questions being thrown at Kiyoshi, then they're off. He took note of the name mentioned, didn't sound like it was the female's name, someone else's. Hiruya... Someone that Kiyoshi, or both of them, were looking for. Most likely the medic of the clan.
As the entered the mouth of what seemed to be a cave, he immediately was hit in the face with a massive heat wave. Jesus! What the hell? It is freaking blazing in here, which wasn't helping his burns, nor his need for liquid. His throat felt dry, his mouth did as well. Goodness, what hit him?! Oh well... Can't be helped too much. So, the demons lived in a cave just like the wolf demon tribe, how convenient. The way it felt, though, it felt like they were in a cave right in an active damn volcano.
Pants came a bit more often after they entered the cave, and he was forced to swallow his own saliva for hydration... If he could even make any, it was like a desert in his mouth, at least that's how it felt.
Eventually, they approached a figure who would be standing in what was the so called 'Grand Hall' of the cave. He stared at the figure with a curious expression, he was quiet the whole time they were there. He was rather shy when meeting new people, so being in an entirely new den made him shut down in socializing categories. He only waited as patiently as he could.

''La la la ~''
Weell, someone was bored there. To be honest, Sha's habit of singing stupidities when there was nothing to do irritated him greatly. Really, what was so good about doing that. It just created an unnecesary sound, which disturbed others.
''Shakaku, shut it!''
He had enough of annoying things thrown at him today, and she wasn't helping. At this rate she'd just give him an headache, which was not what he wanted at all. He had a lot to do today, and he didn't need to lose his nerves before he could straighten out everything.
''What? I'm not doing anything.''
''...''
Yeah, and now she was pretending that she didn't do anything, with that innocent pout on her face. Sigh, yeah and she was an epitome of innocence, like hell. That look didn't go with her. And Kiyoshi didn't waste anymore of his breath on her now. Besides, Hiruya has finally returned, carrying some tube of lotion for burns and a bottle, presumably with water.
''There we go. This should cool down the burns and help it heal. You can apply it yourself if you want.......And I suppose the panting means you're hot, so I brought a bottle of water. Use it however you want.''
He said simply, handing the two items to the Wolf Demon. He wasn't sure why was Kiyoshi hanging around with a foreign demon, but he'd be polite to him, till Kyo explains why is he there. Then, he'll make his own opinion about the matter. But he would have helped anyway, that was his job, and he didn't care who he was treating as long as the patient wasn't trying to ask for a battle.

He wasn't even paying much attention to Kiyoshi at the moment, he was too busy panting of water or some kind of liquid that will sooth his intense thirst. He wasn't used to this, not at all was he. He was used to the mountains, the cool climate, the mild climates, everything like that, not a goddamn blazing chamber like this. Oh, how he hoped he can pull through this without drying up completely, dammit it was like a desert.
Eventually, the medic finally came back, the medic known as Hiruya. He seemed like an Okay guy, unless you challenge him or get rude and offensive that it, then you're probably screwed. He quietly, as he could, accepted the lotion made up of herbs unknown to him, and the water. The hell was a fire demon doing with water? Oh, well, who cares now, he was thirsty and grateful! Before he did anything, he bit at the bottle trying to obtain it's contents, now drinking it like some sort of animal. Well, he WAS a wolf demon.
Afterward was when he would thank the Yokai, even more grateful for his assistance.
"Thank you so much."
He said before beginning to apply the substance to his burns, feeling relieved upon contact between the burn, and the cool substance... Whatever it was, he didn't even know.

''You're welcome.''
Hiruya said gruffly, before moving to the closest wall, and leaning against it with his arms crossed. He wasn't the talkative guy, and he rarely said anything that didn't have anything to do with his work. To most, he seems like a distant person, not engaging in conversation. But, he did good in his work, always having good observations, and knowing what to do. Like the water. He could easily see that Uzochiko wasn't used to that kind of temperature, as he was nowhere near to being a Fire Demon, which made it obvious that he'd need some kind of refreshment. Though, he had to dig for the water, as Fire Demons didn't drink very much and they disliked water in general. But they kept some around, just in case.
Kiyoshi watched the scene from the corner of his eye, trying to ignore Sha's tantrums. She was starting to get annoying. As of now, she was stalking towards the Wolf Demon, presumably trying to get a good look at him. She was always interested in anything new, and demons were no exception.

He blinked, watching the yokai move to a wall and resting against it like a big shot. This told him something, something about him. He wasn't very sociable probably, and talked less than others. This reminded him of himself, himself from the past, and even now. He was a quiet and innocent demon in the Wolf demon Tribe, he didn't socialize with many but those associated with him, such as his father, mother, or Miizotsu or Shuzuko. It was just him, and it's not very easy changing who you are.
He suddenly found himself being watched and observed, like the pair of eyes was some kind of scientist studying and collecting data on the graceful and prideful wolf breed, how they live and all that shit. (There aren't scientists, only scholars. <.< Just used that term.) He was feeling slightly uncomfortable with this happening to him, for goodness sake was there something wrong with him? What as so great about him that she's want to go through trouble trying to get a clear view of him? She's probably one of those overly curious people, but he didn't mind for now. He doesn't judge, he only went quiet and stared at her, unsure of what to do.
