[His eyes are searching everywhere. Above them, all around them, looking for movement of some monster hiding behind one of the burning buildings that are still smoldering from the raging fire that encompassed them. Some are still burning brightly, but he doesn't see any kind of dinosaur or ice creature out to get them. But surely, something must of thrown that little ice ball at them-

Thonk!

Yet another one comes from a completely different direction now, hitting Tartaglia right in the back of his head.]

Ow-!

[The Harbinger turns, clearly unamused and losing his temper quickly at the stealth sniper. One of his swords snaps into his hand, eyes locked in the location of that last shot as well. There's nothing better to do than to join Hijikata by moving forward with him, determined not to get hit again.]

Grrrr...they won't be messing with us for much longer. But I still don't see what could possibly be taking aim at us...surely it's not hiding in that burning building, is it?

[HE'LL DROP A WHOLE ASS WHALE ON IT IF HE HAS TO THO]
