Fight It!

The koi boy didn’t flinch even as Chimera revealed his prickly exterior. His growl and questioning statement did make Hikaru much more on guard. He’d seen the way the dual toned man fought, and he was confident in his own ability to stay out of his jaws. They were both tired after the fight though, and Kaiyo didn’t have to let the worry drown him. Still, he was on guard now.

Hikaru also quickly realized that the man didn’t want to keep the corpse. He tried to hide the excitement that bubbled up as he realized he’d get to keep the whole thing. Chimera denied him and turned to go back to whatever hell hole he had been birthed from. Hika smirked slightly but shrugged off the interaction. His loss.

Once Chimera was gone Hika laboriously coiled the dead snake around his body and very carefully made his way back to the Armada with his prize.
