The woman sighs through her teeth, even if you can't see it the sound is obvious. "That makes things harder. Okay, I'll take it from here and get Kirino home. I'd recommend the rest of you get some sleep too."

Tami is a bit annoyed and she does not want to leave the girl alone with a stranger, especially in unconscious state. "And who are you? How can we trust you that you will take care of her?"

"Ah, yes, apologies for my manners." She bows again. "Masamune Yukari, exorcist."
OOC:
Identify or Sense could be used here.

Eun is a stranger here still, pretty much, so has nothing to base an assessment on. She looks to the others to see what they think.

Tami does not want to leave the girl with the unknown lady, even if she claims that she is an excorcist. "What that supposes to mean?" she thinks. However she does not want to fight the Yukari lady, she seems to have more experience with such situations. "What will happen to her?" she asks pointing the fainted girl.

"Maybe we should bring her along with us since we're supposed to go report anyway. If they trust this lady, then we can let her have her."

"We're going to take her home, after giving her a checkup." Yukari nods. "I won't personally, I don't have the skills, I'm here to act as escort though."

She sighs and runs a hand through her hair. More and more you get the feeling she's very tired, and doesn't entirely want to be where she is. With a shrug, she continues. "If you think you can get her home safe, though, I won't say no."

Tami thinks about a moment and agrees to leave the girl to the exorcist's aid. They may know better than her, even she is a medical student she still does not know what afflictions may the girl have nor how to attend to damage inflicted by Kami. "Ok..." she says reluctantly.

Yukari bows, and carefully lifts the girl. She takes her to the car she drove in with, and takes a moment to talk to someone on her phone before she climbs inside. When the door shuts, the situation ends with finality.
The following day begins brusquely. The early morning sun does battle with the cold blues of the retreating nighttime. It reflects off the occasional puddles that line the deserted road that leads up through to the Union Building.

You can tell as you start the ascent that whatever you’ve been summoned for, it’s related to the wolf. It’s not common to see a Mononoke of that size rampaging around Hisashiro even in the outskirts. Somehow, it’d gone undetected, which meant bad news for everyone.

On either side of the sleepy path are privately owned houses. They’re traditional, modern Japanese houses like something out of a movie. Each one owning its own regular patch of land up the curving white path. They’re eerily deserted.

To a mundane that might’ve been an unusual occurrence, but as a member of the awakened community you know that many of these houses belong to the higher-ranking exorcists. The ones that aren’t are simply deserted and used as decoys to make the area seem like a normal neighbourhood.

At the apex of the walkway is a massive, squat building. With its regular shape, high fence, and grey exterior it looks like a school from the sixties, or some kind of government building. Whatever the case, it’s an eyesore in the idyllic landscape.

Feel free to test Luck to see who appears first in the scene, though I'm not fussed on the order in which you post. A higher roll might give you some access to extra info.

Tami drives her motorcycle lazily in the deserted road. Although she is curious about what they want her for, she is not in a hurry.
OOC:
I gueesed there is a proper road between the houses till the main building, else I will adjust the post.

Eunbyeol is dropped off near the to by a taxi. The taxi driver turns around and leaves as quickly as possible. He's probably as unsettled as her. During the ride she noticed the way the houses stood quiet and devoid of life, but getting out and standing here in front of the school or whatever it was, the feeling really hit home even more. Someone wanted this place deserted for some reason. She hurried on to door, eager to see someone else, anyone else.

Mayumi arrived in a taxi as well. Enough people saw Shrine Maidens that, although the driver stared at first, he understood when she told him she was on shrine business. Indeed that was even true. She was the person from her shrine who travelled to fight when needed. The mistress of the shrine and other priestess were busy with the regular day to day.

While approaching the entrance, the Tami catches sight of an unfamiliar face. While this wouldn't be unusual normally, the sight is a bit more notable than just someone unfamiliar. A man wearing a police badge leans against the wall. He looks to be getting on in years, with flecks of grey in his trimmed moustache and short hair.

His suit jacket looks a bit ill fitting, and thick bags hang under his eyes. His shirt is well ironed, and his tie done up to his collar though. A cigarette dangles from his lips, unlit, and he holds a lighter in his right hand. Something must've distracted him before he got to lighting it, and now he's staring into space.

The others arrive soon after, but not before he catches sight of Tami and by extension everyone.

"Goodmorning..." Tami says to the others. "Ready to see what this fuss is about?" She watches the police officer with the corner of her eye.

"We may as well. Standing around out here won't get us anywhere." Eun heads for the door, pulling it open - if it's not locked - and heading inside.

Mayumi heads in with the others. "Agreed, let’s be about it."
