Frau sighed and looked down. While thoughts of Teito roused the scythe, they also put Frau in more control. There was no one he would fight harder to keep the scythe from than his apprentice. The scythe may have been making its irritation known, but Frau was back in full control and his head was on a bit straighter.

Not only was his desire for a soul much smaller, he knew he couldn't go after Sasuke even if it was. The kid's soul was dark, yes, but it wasn't corrupted beyond redemption. He wasn't the type of food that Frau was willing to eat.

He turned away from Sasuke to gaze out over the edge of the rooftop as he tried to figure out what to do now. Before he could do that though, he spotted someone watching them. That wasn't good. Without a moment of hesitation, he shot toward Sasuke, grabbed the back of his collar and tossed him over his shoulder. It was all one nice fluid motion that Frau had done so many times before. Within a second, he was dashing toward the next roof over, Sasuke in tow.
