Draig looked at the Ginji and Aoi seriously, he wanted them to wake up soon so he could find out what happened. For Ginji to willingly sacrifice his hand and force his way into his room protected by runes it had to be something serious.
”Draig do you know what happened here” asked Ari causing the Vampire to look at her plainly.
”If I knew what happened I wouldn't be waiting for them to wake up” answered Draig causing the girl to scowl, she had only asked a question.
”You know this is what you get for interfering in other people's business” stated Keiko still feeling bitter over her Faction being reduced to it's previous state.
”When someone is using my name for their own means it becomes my business, you should learn to get by on your own merits” grunted Draig casting a scathing glance towards the girl.
Keiko glared at the Feratu.
”You could have just let it slide and overlook something so small” spoke Keiko feeling indignant.
”Oh if that is how you feel maybe I should go and start acting out in your name and see how much trouble I can stir up” stated Draig causing the girl to fall silent, she knew what Draig was saying and also knew that if Draig started trouble with some of the bigger fish in the Academy then she would be done for.
”Don't act justified when you are in the wrong unless you have the power to be right” stated Draig causing the girl to look at him oddly.
Draig was brought from the conversation when Ginji began to stir, soon the Grave forger opened his eyes and looked around wildly before turning his gaze towards Aoi in panic.
”She is fine, I have healed her and your hand” stated Draig alerting the Smith to his presence.
”Draig, thank the heavens you are here” spoke Ginji with relief as he seemed to calm down noticeably.
”What happened here, where is everyone and what caused you to force your way into my room” asked Draig as these were all questions that would perhaps have the same answer but he needed to ask each of them regardless of the possibility.
”What happened? I'll tell you what happened, that damnable Tsukuba came by with his brother and started a ruckus. They took everybody for Disciplinary action and tried to take us too if I hadn't acted quickly and escaped to here” called Ginji in a grievanced tone, he didn't know why they had come but Draig did upon hearing the name Tsukuba.
However it seemed Keiko had a moment of realization.
”We need to head back to my Faction” spoke Keiko quickly as she stood to leave only to be zapped by the curtain.
Ari and Yuki also realized what the girl meant but Draig didn't care about some Faction he had nothing to do with.
”Draig, they asked for you specifically. What kind of mess did you get into to bring the wrath of the Disciplinary committee upon us” asked Ginji as he looked towards Aoi with clenched fists.
”I beat up some weakling that wore the Disciplinary Committee sash” answered Draig causing Ginji to glare dangerously as he went to punch Draig but the Feratu caught the Fist and squeezed powerfully.
”AHH, this is all your fault. . . .” growled Ginji as he winced from the force of the squeeze.
”That may be the case but I can also fix this issue. . .” stated Draig as he stood and lifted the curtain but not before looking back to leave one more word of advice.
”Next time you attempt to attack me. . . I will kill you. .” stated Draig letting the words sink in before leaving to find the Culprits behind the situation.
Thus Draig looked around the courtyard again though this time he was able to see the small remnants of a struggle in the form of small blood stains. It was odd to him, he didn't know of any weapon that could leave such small wounds especially when Aoi had bore such a large one.
