He raises a brow at her, even when she wasn't complaining she still was pretty depressed about the whole thing.

"If I could forget things like that so easily I would have forgotten all the torment I went through as a child for standing up for my beliefs. So you needn't worry about that. And from What I've seen of Kiba I am already very fond of him. So don't worry, we'll figure something out." He gives her a small reassuring smile, then suddenly the ground begins shaking. "We need to get out of here or else we might get trapped!" Yemon indicates that Yuki should go first, wanting to make sure nothing happened to her since he doesn't know if it would affect Kiba. As he's running the ground opens up beneath him, swallowing him up and seeming to close, only a small fracture in the ground left.

Fading in and out of conciousness, Yemon stirs, sensing that he's fallen a long way. He can feel the blood pooling on the ground around him, the fall having caused his head to split open. Then he feels a cool hand on his face, but not cold like Yuki's hand.

"You would have eventually gotten here, though if Yuki hadn't of interfered it might have been sooner rather than later." Says a an older man in a crackly voice. "Mother Earth has chosen you to replace me, she's giving me my time to rest now, so I'm passing my role as the mountain to you." The man places a hand on Yemon's chest, then a burning sensation consumes him, causing him to scream out in pain before blacking out.

Stirring again, Yemon tries to look around, but the pain in his chest is very distracting. Using a hand to grab his chest he feels something like a rock of some kind where his heart is. Sighing, he lets go, trying to roll over to get on his knees to stand, but lets out a scream of pain from how much pain his body is in.
