The small voice that rings out above him breaks his concentration but it does more to make him forget about his despair than any meditative state possibly could. When he blinks open his eyes, Aku cannot believe what he sees. It's a Legionnaire! A tiny Legionnaire but a Legionnaire no less. He might have thought this was one of the demons come to play tricks on him if it weren't for her human scent. His chains clank and drag as the yokai attempts to sit up in a more dignified position. But such a position is hardly obtainable while chained to the ground. Aku hates looking weak, even in the eyes of children.
"Child? How did you—" His teeth clench and he winces in pain while the shackles scald him once again. "What are you doing here?"
Though an evil overlord and a supervillain he may be, even Aku seems to know that hell is a dangerous place for a three-year-old.
