>As you and your trust sidekick fly on down the mountain, you note a distinct lack of furthur fairys rising to attack you. Probably thanks to your little demonstration of your prowess back with Cinnamon. The little fairy's won a fair amount of respect from the other fairys of the mountain, at least as much as fairy respect goes, so you'll probably be unmolested. At least for a while. Plus, you're getting handy to Tengu territory. Not a lot of fairys in and around their turf.
>There's also a fairly ominous looking storm cloud rolling in from the direction of the Myoren temple.
>You note Kogasa start to keep a sharp eye on the landscape below you in this region. Aya's snuck up on her more than once, and your friend considers it a point of pride not to let it happen again. She's not had tremendous success, but she certainly tries her best. And is cute doing it, you have to admit.
>Passing close to the broad river that cuts through Tengu and Kappa territory, you do indeed have an encounter with a tengu reporter, though not the one you'd expected to spring up at you. A pair of tengu are flying out ahead of you and higher up. The trailing tengu (whom you can't recognize) turns her head down to look at you. The leader, whom you know to be, Hatate Himekaidou, also turns her head back. The two decelerate slightly and begin to lower their altitude, dropping down towards you and Kogasa.
>"Think they wanna fight, too?" Kogasa wonders out loud.
