"No," the Aura Master interrupted the swords master. "All waiting for Tsukineko will do is let us fall farther and farther apart. If neither you nor he will be here to guide us, then why should we wait. I don't care what it takes, I won't let the alliance die!" the fencer yelled, swinging his arm across, looking at the samurai with some level of seriousness beyond his normal look.

"And, what do you suggest," the swordsman asked the fencer. The green haired man smiled in his normal manner, and the samurai looked at him with narrowing eyes. "You don't honestly-"

The fencer cut in before Nikudemon could finish his thought. "If neither you nor Tsukineko are around to lead it, then leave leadership to me!" the Aura Master told his friend as he began to walk again. "I don't know what's happened to Tsukineko or Celia, but I know they've vanished and can't be found, but I know that I'm left. Of the four of us, I've maintained contact with any other members I could find. Currently, I know where two others are, and I'll not let them escape me so easily. I will bring together the Alliance."

"So you know where two others are? What difference does it make. And Celia's left the Alliance; she no longer wants anything to do with us."

"I figured that would happen. And you're wrong, I still spend long days training, but I'll never let it consume my life. The time has come we bring together the Alliance of Tasogare again, with new people to fill out the ranks for those we have lost. I care not if you will allow me or not, I will be summoning them together to this place. Either you will give me the title of leader of the Alliance of Tasogare in your and Tsukineko's place, or I will take it by force. Which would you prefer?" The fencer asked, aura glowing around his hands.
