Kai raised his head slightly to see three figures with the one in the middle bearing a wry smile on her face her hands stretched out indicating she's the one who threw the blade.
Are you mad?! Ryu yelled at Maria. "What if the knife had hit the young man, what then?!" He continued
"What were you thinking?" Ryu exclaims, his voice a mix of anger and incredulity. "You could have killed him with that knife!"
Maria, a wry smile on her face, her hands extended in a casual gesture, merely shrugs. "I didn't miss, did I?" she says, her tone teasing. "And besides, these two were a bit out of their depth."
Ryu, his frustration mounting, shakes his head in exasperation. "You're unbelievable," he says, his voice tight with annoyance. "You can't just go around throwing knives at people!"
"Fine, fine," Maria relents, her smile widening. "But don't get in my way," she adds, her voice taking on a dangerous edge. "This yomigaeri is mine."
