Xigbar vanished, and for those few moments Chase felt himself relax. After all, the boy who had approached them was small and somewhat fragile-looking; Chase just wasn't threatened by him. The eyes might have been what put him off - so blue, so utterly ... trusting. Unthreatening. He knew the boy was looking him over, gauging him. If he asked any questions, Chase wouldn't mind answering; after all, it wasn't as if trying to kill their lead tormentor was anything to be ashamed of.

Unfortunately Xigbar quickly returned, and a small and equally trusting-looking little girl arrived not long after. Chase quirked his eyebrow at the collective, aware that he was no longer Xigbar's main objective - good. Even if the man had pointedly used the phrase 'old' to irritate him ...

"Chase Young," he said flatly to Sora, keeping his ever-growing glare on Xigbar. The drugs had to leave his system eventually; the sooner the better, and if activity helped them, then he would act.
