"...Disgusting... I can't believe we never even heard about that", she said, visibly angered upon hearing that. "...And... what is Night Raid? ...What do you guys fight for?"

"Where a branch of the revolutionary army." He said. "We assassinate all the big powerful nasty people in order to soften the Empire up for the coming war." He grinned.

"...I see. Well then, count me in", she said without hesitation. "Those bastards allowed us to be killed. They're partly responsible for what happened to Ieyasu and me... responsible for what Tatsumi-kun had to go through when he found us... and if this is, indeed, the true face of the Empire... then I'm going to kick that face in", she added, one more tear running down her cheeks, but her eyes displayed more rage than sadness.
She followed them without a word unless they spoke to her.

"I admire your spirit kid. The runt had to dragged back kicking and screaming." Gatsu said as they were confronted by a man in a brown coat, short auburn hair an eyepatch and a huge drill lance, and a silver haired man in a black bodysuit with some armor plates a set of three spears on this back.
"The hell... How is one of them still alive?" Brown hair said.
"My lady, are you alight?" The silver haired man said scooping you up in his arms. "You three should be ashamed of yourselves forcing this poor woman to walk barefoot through the forest, have you no compassion."
"Miss, meet Ryousuke, and Drake, they're fellow members of Night Raid." Leone said as Drake carried you towards their base a large building under a cliff.

"I admire your spirit kid. The runt had to dragged back kicking and screaming."
"...I'm the oldest... the big sister, more or less", she said, sadly. "I try to be strong at all times. To be honest, I'll probably cry my heart out later. I'm... still trying to understand what's happening", she added in all honesty.
"The hell... How is one of them still alive?"
She looked at the duo, unsure of what to answer. In fact, she had no idea. That was the one part of all of this that didn't seem to make any sense to her.
"My lady, are you alight?"
"I, um... heeh?!" she let out, as the man took her in his arms.
"You three should be ashamed of yourselves forcing this poor woman to walk barefoot through the forest, have you no compassion."
"Miss, meet Ryousuke, and Drake, they're fellow members of Night Raid."
"...Oh... um, hello. I'm... Sayo", she said, hesitantly, and not used to being carried around like a princess.

"You'll have to excuse Drake's chivalry." Gatsu said. "Pretty boy used to be a loyal bodyguard for some nobleman who was framed and killed by the Prime Minister, he still insists on acting like a knight."
You arrive inside the building to find a young brown haired man in a Priest outfit at prayer in the living room. "There is only one dead?" He asked without even opening his eyes and turning his head.
"That's Kirei, he's a Priest who decided to work for us." Ryousuke said. "Still not sure why, come on Kirei, you and me are on Burial detail."
"You have my condolences." He said to you with barely a hint of emotion as he stood up and went with Ryousuke carrying Ieyasu's body.
Drake lowers you to your feet now that they are inside the building.

"You'll have to excuse Drake's chivalry. Pretty boy used to be a loyal bodyguard for some nobleman who was framed and killed by the Prime Minister, he still insists on acting like a knight."
"It's... okay", Sayo said simply. nodding. "I guess I don't mind after all of this."
"There is only one dead?"
"That's Kirei, he's a Priest who decided to work for us. Still not sure why, come on Kirei, you and me are on Burial detail."
"You have my condolences."
"...Thanks", Sayo let out, giving one last look at the body of her friend, before accompanying the other Night Raid members on her own feet, doing all she could to not break out in tears. Ieyasu had been the most cheerful, the most idealistic of the three friends. He always had a smile on his face, and as reckless and rashas he could be, he was always a loyal friend and always managed to put a smile on her and Tatsumi's face.
She sighed, following along further inside the HQ of Night Raid, wondering both what else awaited her... and why she had survived, and not Ieyasu.

"Hey Akame, Mawari." Leone yelled to two raven haired girls one with red eyes in what looked like a sleeveless suit and skirt, and another in a black long sleaved dress with flats with purple eyes. "Where is Tatsumi? We have a surprise for him."
"He's in that room." Mawari said pointing. "We had to give him something to help him sleep." She said as you noticed a broken broom handle in the corner.

The girl raised an eyebrow.
"...'Something', huh?" She looked at Leone. "...So... we can't see him immediately?"

"You wish him awake... allow me." she said opening the door to where he lay, and cut his hand with a strange glaive.
"Huh, I'm awake I'm awake... Wait.... Sayo?" Tatsumi asks shaking. "No way, this is some sort of trick... I saw you up there in the shack."

"Huh, I'm awake I'm awake... Wait.... Sayo?"
Again, this time, the brunette couldn't keep her eyes from tearing up.
"...T... T-Tatsumi-kun..."
"No way, this is some sort of trick... I saw you up there in the shack."
She nodded, trembling as well, and, gritting her teeth.
"...I... I know. And, Ieyasu-kun too... I don't know. I don't know how I'm still alive... I remember everything... the torture and everything... I remember Ieyasu-kun screaming my name as everything went black. And... then I woke up, and... my wounds were gone and my leg was back. And I could move..." She looked at herself, still covered in blood. "...I have no idea what happened. I feel different... b-but I'm alive, I think. Somehow..."

Tatsumi rushes into your arms sobbing completely.

Despite her usual tough act, the girl couldn't hold it in any longer, hugging him and crying along with him, sobbing just as much as he did if not more. It took a solid 10 minutes for her to even begin to stop crying if no one interrupted them.

after awhile Leone pulls you away. "Come on, let's get you cleaned up, we can discuss things further in the morning."

Reluctantly, Sayo followed her... but not before saying a quick: "...It's good to see you again... Tatsumi-kun."
She went along with Leone, sighing and nodding. There were many things she wanted to talk about, but a good night of rest would do her wonders. Still, she had a question she wanted to ask immediately.
"...Was that everyone? Did I meet everyone from Night Raid?"
