"Arikiko, a person approaches." A low grumbling filled the courtyard, although the boy's lips did not move but his head did, scanning upwards to glare at Hukaji with red eyes, almost glowing with detest. It was that blasted Hokkai and his good-for-nothing pet. A growl left Ariki and he slowly rose to his feet, grabbing Morghul and hefting him onto his shoulder with the quietest of grunts. Scanning over to Hukaji, the boy spoke out although his voice held not a tone of compassion or warmth in it. "What do you want?" He growled, his eyes narrowing and his free hand reaching up to brush his blue hair out of his eyes to prevent it from getting in the way during the fight. Ariki really didn't want to be interrupted during his daily sitting around so when he was interrupted, that made him none too happy at all.
