"That's a stupid question."
Kuro was standing right next to the guard with the sword, mere inches from him. The guard looked towards him and moved his nodachi towards Kuro, as though about to attack. Kuro smiled and continued.
"Why else would anyone be in here, or in this school at all? We're here to fight and grow stronger."
The guard continued to stare at Kuro, as though expecting Kuro to take a few steps back away from his weapon, but Kuro remained next to him.
"I honestly can't say I know exactly what we're doing here, but if Kin brought me here, I know it's going to be fun. It looks like beating you will be part of our fun too."
Kuro looked over his shoulder towards the roof surrounding them. He finally turned and started walking away.
"You seem tough, that's for sure, but I have something else to check on now. My friend Aki here has more than enough strength to bring you down anyway." Kuro stood in front of Aki and smiled. "You'll fall quickly before the grace and precision of her tessen. Handle this for me please Aki, I'll be right back."
Kuro walked away from the group towards the wall. Leaning against it, he called up to the figure above. "No need to sit up there watching us this whole time. Why don't you come down here and join in the fun? Our side or theirs, whichever way seems the most entertaining to you. Powerful fighters like you shouldn't spectate."
