Zander paced anxiously, getting more agitated every moment that passed. Now he didn't need to be the calm, collected one for Ky. Or Tomhas even for that matter. Or Tadaaki. Now, he could process his own emotions. And every impulse within him was just screaming what the actual fuck was that?
It shook him. Things like this rarely shook him. Sure, it was never fun to have to ward off an attack -- especially not at an event that was supposed to be as sacred as this. But it's not like this was the first time. It was the first time, however, that he'd had Ky in the vicinity when it did. Well, he supposed she'd been in a rather lot of danger when he was rescuing her as an infant -- but never since then.
He felt so guilty about her being in danger; and also so perplexed about why she was the one they were after. How could anyone be so cruel to her as to carve her up as a roast duck? And to send assassins, plural, to hurt her even after he died? She was in some deep shit, and he would be pulling out every last piece of information she had. He just had to be patient. He didn't want to traumatize her further. No matter how desperately he wanted to know the answers.
