--ess, stay back!

[The transmission begins to that, and the sound of a struggle that seems like it's been going on for a while already: metal clashes on metal, and the sound of sickening growls and grunts can be heard. The struggle continues, and there's a sharp, surprised shout as Syaoran is thrown backwards into a wall.

For a second there's just silence, and then the struggle begins again -- it sounds much more intense this time, but it ends quickly, with the sound of metal cutting through meat or flesh, and a dull 'thud!'

Some labored breathing follows]

Ah...it's all right now, you--

[...] Princess?

[there's a pause, and then he takes a deep, shaky breath. the transmission ends]

((ooc: i'm saying she was with him when she disappeared; also yes he got ambushed by one of the legato!reavers |Db))

[The post begins and for a few moments only the sound of heavy breathing can be heard, followed by a slight scuffling and a soft thud]

That-- what did he-- ...nn--

[There's a pause; the breathing continues, then scuffling and what might be footsteps]

At least... [there's a muffled, wet cough] almost there--

[And then, as if adding insult to injury... ZZZT.]

A-ah--! [The transmission ends, cutting off the sound of more labored breathing and a few heavy footsteps]

So it's-- ...a new calendar year has started, then, it seems. It was nice, and so was the food... I'm not sure if I'll be making any resolutions yet --is that what they're called?-- or not, but it might not be a bad idea.

... I don't know what to say about--

I, ah-- I assume that I'm not the only one who...saw something unusual. Does anyone know what they were? And...Kazuki, was it? I'm sorry. I looked, but I couldn't find Sakura anywhere.
