I'm of the opinion being hunted to the death is a right of passage.
[A--joke, he's sorry. His jokes are very dry and shitty. Rest in peace, Nico. He had a long childhood of running from danger, running into danger, and fighting to the death.
The last true battle he had as a teenager was to the death.
Briefly, Sasuke lifts his head as they stop in front of the house, surveying what he can of the outside. Colored. Interesting. It seems more inviting than the others, the colorless ones. But he isn't going to take any chances.
Without waiting or announcing, he steps to the side and around Nico, moving ahead. The right side of the cloak lifts, peels back over his shoulder and out of the way. He shifts the sheathe behind him and pulls the sword up out of it underhanded, motion fluid and swift. The handle spits blue electricity, and the sound of it is like the muffled cry of birds.
The electricity bounces up his arm and around his shoulder, then down again. Rather than use the other arm to open the door, he uses his open-toed boot. Weird, until it's apparent there is no other arm at all. He doesn't hesitate, but goes inside, sparking.]
