Ayane Yatsumi
The bright light that had seemed to surround twenty-year old Ayane Yatsumi finally faded away. She spun quickly around, panting and shaking lightly. "What in the hell just happened?" She murmured to herself, glancing down at herself. Only if anyone else were close by would anyone note the faint but still existing hints of panic within her blue orbs.
Thankfully, however, they did catch note of a few things. She hadn't been transferred to ... wherever this was alone. Not completely, anyways. Her pistol was still in it's holster at her right hip. That much was definitely a blessing and it made a soft sigh of relief leave her lips. But it didn't solve the multiple problems which had presented themselves to her.
As her eyes looked back up in front of and around her, she tried to gather her bearings. Shestillhad no idea where this was, only what had happened moments ago before that ... light appeared. The blue orbs temporarily vanished as they closed and her memory let everything replay.
"You're going to become the Juunidaime of the Vongola Family."
"Huh? Me? Why? How?"
That had been as far as the talk went, which genuinely annoyed her. All she'd been able to have gathered was being the twelfth boss of a major mafia family. A frustrated "Urgh" left her lips as little more returned to her. Even the figure that had been speaking to her came as a blur in her head.
"Tch, damnit. How could you have forgotten who was trying to talk to you?! Of all the vital things ... "
Her head shook, causing the bright silver locks to move from side to side. Another sigh elicited from her lips and finally, her eyes opened. "Regardless .... " she mused. "It won't do you good to just stand here like an idiot. Maybe there's ... a sign or something to indicate where you are?"
With a new and decent plan in her head, Ayane nodded and began to walk around. The place had gone from foreign to incredibly eerie in mere moments. No one was around though tons of shops were. Some had food in them, others weapons and even ammunition for firearms.
The latter, however, may actually be really useful. In fact ... yes. If she was going to survive in this new world, she'd need more than the six bullets within the chamber of her pistol.
"Um, excuse me but .... " She stopped upon seeing that eveninsidethe shop, no one was here. "Is this for real?!" It seemed difficult to believe. In fact, she pinched herself just to ensure she wasn't imagining things. But the low wince which followed in a few seconds hinted it didn't seem to be.
"....So creepy ... " She added softly, shaking her head as she forced herself to focus and began to go through all the bullets they had available, looking for the exact same ones her own gun needed.

Luigi Martius was a man of the city, a boss of a large important family in the city where the underworld was the normal world. He walked sat looking at numbers quietly calmly, a sense of importance to the young man as his eye scanned the sheets of numbers one at a time.The devil was in the details as the saying went and Luigi knew this fact oh so very well, his eyes scanned over the papers one by one finding the flaws in them, his accountants with their double math, so useless, they were hardly worth keeping around, but it kept the workload lighter at least. Luigi's steady hand poured him a glass of Jack, before slamming it down and standing on his feet, the dark hair man looked around, so many inferor want a bees.
Luigi walked down the hall calmly a sense of purpose always in his step. He looked down the street, so many businesses on that street, most of them fronts for other businesses, or sells or traficing of goods, it was anything and everything that one could want or need in ones life. If you were aftersomething you came to him, of course that didn't meant you didn't pay a pretty penny for what you wanted, after all all things in the world had a cost, some were far higher than others. Luigi didn't actually care about the money though, he cared about what the money said about him, about how the money told others that he was the real top dog, not the money itself, that had been deemed hardly important so long before that moment.
Luigi heard thd door, knowing someone was there, he figured he might as well go and see them, it was a late hour and honestly his people were asleep meaning that he was the only one up. He knew that he could get someone easy, from below the hidden passages to the basement for example. He walked over the woodfloor of the hall as he walked to the stairs, he then headed down step by step. He would handle this, Luigi was wearing a pair of black pants and a white shirt with a tan trenchcoat, of course he had weapons all over that coat, and he was good with a fast draw. He had copied the skills of them from old movies he saw as a kid. He was also good in a knife fight, the trench knifes in his right pocket easy to get to if he should need them in a close combat fight. He was ready he always was ready. Being better then the idiots, the useless people meant one had to be prepared to show them how useless they really were.
Luigi walked down and saw her, quickly silver hair, blue eyes that looked like gems, who couldn't of noticed her she stood out like a snow flake on a summer day. He looked over at her as he could tell that she was looking for something of course. Everyone was, it shouldn't surprise him that a dame like this was looking for something. He would guess selfprotection something that would be used to defend herself. Looking over assets he could tell just what the heck she happened to want to protect as well, it was easy to notice, that this dame was a looker. He walked to the counter and smirked as hie focused his eyes on her for a moment, she seemed preoccupied with her search, "Miss, what for it be that you are looking for," he said with his somewhat thick Italian accent as he looked at her his dark eyes focused on her soft face.

Ayane Yatsumi
Luigi's assessment had been correct. Ayane had been very deep in thought. She tried desperately to think and remember anything of the world she'd been taken from. The high school she'd graduated from, Namimori, was simple enough to recall. The friends and her family she grew up around and nearby also was. But when it came down to the same individual who tried to inform her about supposedly taking over as head of the Vongola family ... nope. Not a damn thing and it infuriated her. A visible yet very anxious frown was on her face. Of all the things she hadn't gotten to know, that would have greatly been several details for Ayane to have wanted to learn.
Really ... why in the hell and how would she have been the Juunidaime? It seemed so ... out of place, almost wrong even. Not that she wasn't a feminist but wasn't being boss of a major mafia family something that men usually did. It was for reasons similar to this in which she regretted not having been able to properly inquire on the possibility of taking over.
By the time Luigi spoke, it didn't just snap her out of reality. The new voice made her jump slightly as her head quickly glanced over to the new figure now in front of her. "I ... sorry. I didn't think anyone else was around. Um ... mainly ammunitions."
What Ayane lacked in physical prowess, she excelled in mental. And right now, she knew it was far better to be safe than sorry. This was a very foreign and new place. She had little ideas on what to expect from the people. Simultaneously, the same could likely be said vice versa. And regardless on her nervousness, she did at least owe the man proof that she was here to buy.
Her right hand moved down to her side as she rested her pistol down on the counter, allowing him to see which bullets she was looking for. Meanwhile her left slid down and thankfully found her wallet, another thing she was glad that had transferred with her. As she opened it, however, her face paled slightly. Money was there; that wasn't the issue. But ... did this place even accept yen? Let alone did she have enough?
Ayane tried desperately to shove the nerve-wracking thoughts aside as she let her gaze go from the money in her wallet to the man and her gun simultaneously. "It's ... just for safe-keeping. Still ...." She paused, trying to think on how to word the next part before nodding. "I know this will likely sound weird but I'm not exactly from here. I was just kind of ... very abruptly ... moved. So I figured if I'm going to reside here, I may as well have .. supplies on me."
She was at least being careful on what details about herself were being given to this man; that much had been made clear to even him along with herself. Her mom had suggested to avoid talking to strangers. She couldn't outright zone him out, not now. But she would at least be selective on what he would learn of her and she'd keep it that way. At least that was what Ayane continued to reassure herself.
Is it even possible to go back home?
The mere possibility of 'no' being an answer made her heart genuinely sink. How would she continue to live here? What could she do? Her mind began to race as her eyes stayed on her only means of defense and protection.

Luigi looked at the woman and raised an eyebrow as he saw her jumpy reaction to his statement, he was surprised to see that to a degree, he knew for sure now that the woman had been completely lost in her own thoughts as she stood there for a good long moment looking for something. He nodded his head as he heard what she needed bullets, this dame needed bullets, which could mean a few things really. One, she was buying them for someone else, two she was buying them for herself to off some poor cheating punk. Three she was buying them cause someone was after her and she needed self defense, or four she was a undercover cop trying for some pointless reason to bust shop owners selling legal goods.
His eyes focused on her, a calm coolness naturally to him as he looked at her. He wasn't one to flick or even ever really to get nervous, he focused on her for a long moment as he smirked a bit, and then looked at the handgun for a moment he took out a bullet from it as she showed she had a quality side arm on her. He looked at the bullet for a long moment and paused as his eyes traveled over it. He knew every single type of bullet that was sold, cause he sold them. This bullet was a good high powered cailber he would guess, but it wasn't a size that was normal at all. He took the gun again, six bullets the bullets matched up perfectly, made by some group he had never heard of and they were a very strange smaller then a 45 calibur bullet but larger then a 20 calibur bullet, a odd thing. He put the bullet back into the gun and looked at the woman.
"The gun, where did you get it, custom job by a friend," he said looking at her calmly as he focused his attention her her as she tried to pull out money, He raised an eyebrow, to pull out money before the deal was done was intereting said something about the person and then again this woman was odd. He knew of custom guns, he had his own custom made from Orichalcum, was the most costly thing he owned, but it took normal bullets at least. This made him curioust jost who the woman happened to be, there was more here then meet the eyes.
He had gotten a look at her cash, and shook his head, "Well miss, that is strange colored paper, no green dollars, so it isn't any good in this town or this country, your gun is strange, has no bullets to be found here and if you wanted them, they would have to be custom made which would cost a lot of money. So you have no real money, no chance of getting normal cheap bullets and yes, I can tell your from out of town, or out of country," he said calmly as he looked over over for a moment.

Options three and about half of four were all true. The purchase was definitely meant for herself and survival purposes as she'd said. But it was also true that a bit before she had been informed of taking over the Vongola family, Ayane had indeed joined the police force. Or rather, that was her goal she wanted to accomplish after completing law school. She'd gotten almost three years done. And now ... all of that plus her normal lifestyle was gone.
In fact .. she would need much more than mere bullets she realized. Ayane would also have to buy clothing, food, all the essentials, especially if she did indeed have to remain here. She snuck a glance down at herself, seeing she was in a tank top with incredibly thin straps that revealed most of her shoulders, a pair of blue jeans, a bra, panties, socks, and a pair of sneakers. If push came to shove, she could wear this tomorrow and maybe even the day after. But any longer than that and it'd be pushing her own luck and hygiene-related routines. She didn't really like using the same outfit over and over, not if it could be helped anyways.
"Not quite friend. Job more like. It's the same one I was issued back in Japan." Would he even recognize the name? Then again, a new list of more immediate concerns were soon given to Ayane. And they all made her heart sink deeper into her body, as if it were quicksand.
Fuck! The money's not valid and they don't have the bullets?!
She could do without the bullets. But the money?! No!
"... I see. Um .... damnit." An annoyed sigh left as she slid her wallet back, letting the gun go into it's holster. After all, what point would there be in Luigi keeping it if he couldn't help her out?
"Hm ... well .... " Her gaze went to the floor as she tried to think of options. The only one which immediately entered her head was working for currency. But her pride and anxieties didn't wish for Ayane to go through with those. Maybe if she took a longer and more thorough walk around this place, it'd help her better think. Yes. That seemed to be the best choice.
"I'm sorry." She finally replied, letting her blue eyes make contact with the dark ones across from her. "This .... is just a bit much. I think I'm going to take a walk. But before that ... where exactly am I? I haven't found signs or any indication on what city, nation, location this .... place is."

Luigi smirked as he knew that she had no money no way of getting supplies and no way of doing anything else. She has come for protect moving into the lions den, he smirked as he looked at her, thinking about all the things he could do with the woman, and ho whe could have some serious fun with Ayane. He could envision her under him moaning out in pleasure or just under him as he took her hard and fast, her naked body pressed up a gainst himself. He wondered what she would smell like after he fucked her long and hard. He could see her as a protect a pet project perhaps.
Luigi smirked as he looked at her and heard her question, "you are in the CIty of Darkness South City, New Jersey," he said calmy as he figured he would be able to find the woman any time he wanted, she wouldn't be hard to find, and he figured that he could have his thugs beat her down later as she looked around the city, it wouldn't be any thing that would be hard to do, he smirked as he knew that this was going to be so much fun. He knew that the woman was going to be so much fun.
Luigi figured that the blue eyed woman was going to leave, he figured that she would be easy enough to ambush on her trip, he pulled out a phone as she left and called a couple of his men, and told them that Ayane was coming there way and to jump her and to grab her and bring her back to him so that he could have his fun with her. He just didn't want to do it now, he also would keep that strange gun of hers and then figure out just who the hell made it, for it wasn't the most normal gun he had ever seen in his whole entire life, for sure. He moved away from the counter and sat down in a chair waiting for the call to tell him that they had captured the woman. He knew that the group of thugs was about 4 from what he remembered, they were sloppy but he figured good enough to handle a simple woman.

Ayane Yatsumi
New Jersey? How ... did I get to the States?
Let alone how had a mere flash of light caused all of this? Something was .. very amiss. This made no sense. It had sounded like magic was somehow involved but .. wouldn't she be in an even more foreign place if that was true? Her head shook as she decided that more likely than not, Ayane was over-thinking. There was little to no other explanation in her mind. A soft sigh left her lips as she began thinking on everything.
So ... the money's useless here. Thus you may as well be broke. You've got six bullets and no place to live in. Fucking lovely. Wait!
A slither of hope came to Ayane quickly. If she really was in the States .... not all hope was gone. She had an idea on what to seek out next. Her head bowed politely to Luigi as she walked out of the shop.
A bank ... they can exchange the currency so it matches. Yes! Thank fucking gods for fast thinking ....
A sigh of relief echoed in her head. Truth be told, even if she had the ability to make a purchase at that store, the man had made her uneasy. And not just because of being in a foreign place. No .. there was something else, something ... off about him. But the possibility of having thought too much entered her head. After all, she had just been able to leave that store fine. So maybe it had just been an unfair assumption.
Well ... duh. Few other things it could have been.
Her head shook once again as another deep exhale left. Blue eyes continued to glance around and seek out a bank so she could at least get some essentials. It'd depend on how much she could get once the exchange was completed, really. But it'd still be a start and that would be better than nothing.

Sven
Another person from a different world was also around, he was walking down the street in his white shirt, he had been busy working on a bounty when he had been tired and fell asleep quietly and woke up in this strange world, the green hair of the young man most likely caused him to stand out nearly as much as the white hair of Ayane. The sharply dressed man walked quietly having no money, and no clue what to do, he held his briefcase in his right hand as he walked, he sighed, this place had a lot of contracts and bounties, he could tell there was a lot of crime in the place.
As Ayane walked down the street the four thugs found her and moved quickly around her to circular around her to cut off any way to keep her from escaping the group of them. The leader was a bald man who was just a bit taller then Ayane who smirked at her as he took a deep breath and than smirked, "Well now, if it isn't a sexy woman, I think you should spend the night in my room," he said confidently before attacking dead on. His men stood back as he attacked throwing a hard punch at her aiming for her to take her down. He was going to get paid well to take this woman down and bring her back to his payer.
The green haired Sven happened to be walking when he heard the noise and saw the group that had been around the woman. He was a gentlemen, and to see a woman in distress was perhaps the thing that most annoyed him. He took his metal brief case and cut in moving up towards the woman before hitting the first man in the back of the head, he would have to hope that she could deal with the punch as he was to late to stop that as he moved towards the second one and kicked him with his boot in the base of his neck knocking him down before he turned to find the third and fourth members of the group and make sure he could help out the woman as well.

Ayane Yatsumi
Before the blue eyes found a bank, they soon came across four new individuals. Suddenly, her instincts on the man from the shop only got worse. This .. just didn't feel like a coincidence. Not but moments after she had left, these guys had found her? It could have been chance, yes. But to be this accurate and know exactly where to find her? No. It just didn't seem likely to Ayane. Her teeth gripped her lower lip as she looked around.
Hm ... damnit ...
There was a major difference in attending law school and being in an actual police force. She had taken kendo and a bit of aikido during high school. But ... would that really help out? Her right hand wanted to go to her pistol. But .. honestly, that wouldn't be smart. They were already around her. She needed to act and quickly. And the punch all but hinted that much.
She didn't try to dodge it. There wasn't enough time to do that. But shedidmake a bit of a sacrifice and altered the aim. She winced as it landed on her left shoulder. It'd be her weaker side for one. But more than that, Ayane would be able to keep her consciousness. A few quick pants left as she tossed her own punch back.
Ayane's peripheral vision managed to catch sight of Sven. Was .. he siding with her? Or against her? It seemed like he was trying to help but ... she had no real way of knowing. Questions later. For now, she'd continue to fight. But now that another foreign face was in the equation, her senses had practically heightened, helping become far more alert than she'd been since the day had began.

Sven
Sven wasn't one to let a woman suffer if he could help it at all, and he had no intention of letting this white haired woman suffer wither, he knew that she had to of been targeted by someone. There was no reason for someone to have four against one if that wasn't the case. Why was she targeted why was going down, that he didn't know at all. He figured that he wasn't liking this town at all, it was not a good place. He had a feeling it wasn't a place where anyone decent at all wanted to be for any length of time at all.
Sven finished off the second person with a quick kick to his chin.
He turned to the third member this one looked ready to fun, it was always the case. There was always one who lacked loyalty to his friends and in this case it was number three. Sven moved up quickly and then opened his briefcase in front of the surprised man, but he had only a moment or two to be surprise as gas came from the case and knocked out the man before he turned to see if the woman needed any more help. He knew there was the one who had attacked her from the start still. He moved toward the pair of them as the man turned toward him and ended up hit by the punch pushing him back a bit before Sven could hit him with his brief case afterward knocking him to the ground.
Sven bowed before the woman, "Well my lady, it is good to be able to help you deal with these guys," he said with a respectful tone showing his respect for woman and his chivalrous attitude as well. he tied up the four men as they could be picked up and he could get his reward for the bounty which would be nice cause he never seemed to have any money here ore in the world he came from.
"My name is Sven, gentleman, sweeper and all around good guy," he said putting out his hand for Ayane to take and shake after he had put it out giving her a warm kind smile as the same moment. "So, would you happen to know where we are, I am kind of lost here you see," he asked as he looked at her, he had no clue where he was, this wasn't home he knew that but he was so far rolling with the punches, he had just happened to see the bounties on these guys earlier which would pay for a meal or two.

Ayane Yatsumi
Three of the four men had gone down easily enough. A new idea came to her. Whipping the pistol out from it's holster, she turned so the barrel was in her hands. Pulling her right hand back, she landed the butt of the gun against the last man's temple. A few quick pants were still leaving even as the fight came to a halt. She was confused, terrified, and even a bit angry. Ayane had literally been dragged into this world and she finds out some of the worst bad news then gets attacked? This place was making her want nothing more than to be teleported back to her real home. She was already beginning to hate New Jersey, very much so.
However, a slither of hope was revealing itself and it came in the form of the man beside her. As he introduced himself as Sven, she glanced towards the man to better study him before accepting the handshake after re-holstering her pistol. "Ayane Yatsumi. Wait ... so you're not from here either?" How was this happening, anyways? Regardless, this man clearly wasn't from her own world. Or if he was, she didn't recognize him. But because of that very fact, it was safe to assume he was from somewhere else. "Hm ... this is one hell of an odd day." She mused softly, catching a silver strand of her hair and twirling it over her right index finger.
"Thank you for the help. Going off an owner of a gun shop I just left, we're supposedly in New Jersey. Aside from that, I have no clue where exactly we are. But truthfully, the better questions are how did we get here and what in the hell was that ... attack about exactly?"
The obvious answer and guess should have been just an attempt to rob her. But the words one of the men had said when she first ran into these .... bastards hinted there was much more behind it all. It scared her but simultaneously made Ayane glad that, for now, it was done and over.
"Sorry. I'm ... less organized than usual. This world and the recent incident has taken me aback for lack of better wording." A deep sigh left as she let her composure return to her. Even then, the concept of allowing a man she hardly knew to be close to her was ... risky. She didn't yet know if it was an act or if he was being genuine. But, admittedly, that would be one way to find out now wouldn't it?
Her head bowed respectfully as she took another quick glance around before focusing on Sven. "At any rate, Iwasheading to the bank to do an exchange of currency before ... this ... happened. If we're in the States, there should be such an establishment around. Um ... were you heading toward any specific place by chance? I admit to not knowing where I'm going but it seems fair to be able to help you out somehow."

Sven
Sven raised an eyebrow at the statement, New Jersey how the hell did he end up in New Jersey, plus this didn't look normal either. "Well it is a gentleman's job to help a lady out," he said with a nod, "your assumption would be correct, I am not from this world. I am from somewhere less well like this at least," he said pausing for a moment, he nodded in agreement with her statement about it being odd, it was very strange though to end up in such a place randomly was something that he didn't understand at all.
"Well, this type of stuff happens to happen to me all the time, random things popping out of the sky, problems always popping up all the time, yeah this isn't such a strange thing for me. I don't know why, it just happens, in my world too, well part of it was my fault perhaps but that isn't here or there," Sven said with a kind look.
"The attack, I don't know anything about, it seemed they were after you for some reason, have you already made enemies here in less than a day," he asked as he sighed softly, it would be fitting he would run into someone else who was a magnet for trouble, it was just his luck to have this happen perhaps. He looked at the silver haired blue eyed woman for a moment, perhaps she was in with them, naah, he wasn't the type to distrust a woman, it just wasn't his style at all.
"Well, do you think that bank would even be open right now, who knows when the hours of this bank are, I think I saw one down street, but honestly, I was just looking a place to hold up and a place to eat," he replied rubbing the back of his neck as he looked at Ayane, "this place is so backwards, now to find the reward place, if this town has one, then we can cash in and we won't need to worry about the bank, you can have your share of the reward, it might even been half decent who knows."

Ayane Yatsumi
It was intriguing to hear that Sven was used to random things like this occurring to him. The same definitely couldn't be said for Ayane. But that proved they were truly from different locations and he wasn't an unfamiliar face from her own world. "Hm ... I see." She replied, her own nod coming into view of Sven's eyes. "Um ... is it too much to ask why this is typical for you? Are you in a line of work that makes you often in dangerous scenarios or something?"
Her head shook again as her own sigh left. "I ... honestly don't know myself. I only spoke with the shop owner moments ago before this happened. I ... didn't think I said anything which infuriated him." And yet, that was all the more incentive to suggest to Ayane he had been more than his mere appearance otherwise suggested. The uneasy feelings she'd had while around them may very well be more accurate than even the future mafia boss had thought. It scared her slightly. She hadn't said or done something against him. So what were his motives? It was always the unknown which was more terrifying than the obvious facts.
When Sven brought up the issue, however, Ayane glanced up and realized it was indeed later than she'd thought. ".... Hell. I got so astounded upon being transferred into here I never noticed how late it was. Hm ... probably not then. But it is good to hear the idea would have otherwise likely worked." Food was always another nice idea. It hadn't been her immediate thought but ithadbeen a while since she'd eaten.
Idiot, it doesn't matter now does it? After all, the money here isn't good.
But then the idea of a ... reward place? What the hell was that? All the same, it sounded like a place where he could get money. More than that, he was offering to split the reward. That definitely amazed her. She had to blink her eyes and pinch herself to ensure she hadn't heard things. A small smile, the first one that had formed all day, was seen on her face.
"You ... don't have to but thank you. That would be appreciated. Um ... hm. We'll need to look for a motel or some place to reside in even if only for tonight, hm? After food that is." She offered.

The one eyed green man looked at her and nodded his head at her first question, "Yeah you can say that, I am a sweeper, I capture criminals for their bounties, well that is what we are called in my world, I guess they could be called bounty hunters," he said with a nod of his head as he looked at the woman. He left out the fact that his partner was the former top assassin in the world, and his basically adapted daughter was nanotech biological weapon or he was friends with a top level thief as well. Basically yeah, things could be summed up easily as dangerous and surprising for him.
"Well, I figure that we will have to figure how to get out of this situation as soon as possible, perhaps there are others who also had something happen to them similar, who knows, the odds are if something happened twice perhaps it happened more then twice," Sven said as he mused thinking about it, once was random, twice, he wondered about that. The former international dectective wasn't a idiot, he was a man who liked to figure things out too, here he had a chance to try to figure out what was going down and caused them to come into this strange strange world.
Sven used a net to grab the group of four of them and than nodded as he looked over at Ayane, "Well, Miss, what is your world like, mine is different pretty wild, do you come from a rather boring place or just have a normal um life," he asked as he drugged the group to the nearest police station, he guessed he would able to find out if there was a bounty on the group here and he was glad when he found there was. He handed the group over for a decent bit of money turning towards Ayane.
The yellow orangish eyes looked at the woman as he walked over and handed her a fair amount of his money before walking out of the police station, so first a place to eat huh. He looked around for a moment as he tried to find somewhere and pointed a one down the street, it looked easy enough to get to, and was open, he could see a hotel just on the otherside too which would make that easy, he pointed it out to Ayane as he looked at it, "so that work for you?"

Ayane Yatsumi
Well .. that makes sense. He's not that much different from you in certain respects.
Her own nod left. After another look around, Ayane decided standing still probably wasn't the best idea, especially in such a location where she knew no one or anyplace. Besides, those four had proven someone wanted her .... and not likely for any good reasons at all. Really though, whathadshe done? All that came to her head was making an abrupt appearance in this world. But it wasn't like she wished for it. Far from it. So ... that wasn't really what had gotten her in trouble, was it? Then again, she couldn't think of anything else.
A low sigh left her lips as she ran a hand through her hair. A knot formed in her stomach upon hearing the possibility of going home. And finally, she let the possibility leave her lips. "... And ... if we can't get back?" True, that bridge could be crossed when it arrived. But she wanted to know Sven's thoughts on the off-chance it wasn't even doable.
"Hm ... " She glanced down, trying to explain Japan. She'd only known it to fall under the latter. But now that she was gone, it likely would be ... chaotic. And that made the knot turn tightly in her stomach. "Normal enough, yeah. Graduated from a high school, had been in the midst of university." Ayane paused, wondering about bringing up the fact she was supposed to be a mafia boss in her world. Would that even matter here though? It didn't seem like it. But still, if that had somehow contributed to the real reason she'd been sought after ... maybe she should?
Her head shook no. Until she knew more details, Ayane wouldn't bring it up. It was reckless, she knew. But the future boss didn't want anything more about herself being learned. Not that she didn't trust Sven. Anyone else in this world, however, was a different story.
"I'd been in the midst of getting into the local police force before this, actually." She added, deciding that much would be fine to reveal.
Soon enough, they got the money. She began counting it out and whistled lowly. This was much more than she'd expected, even for the amount of individuals that had been turned in. "Thank you. Yeah .. this works fine. I wouldn't mind splitting the bill if you wanted." Not just because it'd seem fair, either. But Sven would need his own items now that he had gotten transferred into here. It seemed like the best idea to go through with, economically.

Sven looked over and nodded his head, he knew next to nothing about this woman, but well, she seemed far more trustworthy than most that he ran into in this place so far. He raised an eye and than nodded his head, "Well local police that is impressive," he said as he walked, lighting up a cigerete as he walked, smoking was a horrible habit that he had for such a very long time.
"I was once a member of the international investigation bureau, a dectective first class," he said idly, now those were days long gone, for the one eyed sweeper, days that were so very long before. He smiled as he walked, he had his own secrets that he kept, mostly dealing with the nature of his other eye, the one hidden by the eyepatch, the one which he didn't use. He himself wasn't normaly at all, a fact that was easy to notice when he used said eye, which he avoided normally as much as was humanly possible.
"As for the split sure, that will work, that way we don't have to worry about who spends what and all," he explained as he walked up to the restruant and held the door open for her, he waited for her to walk into the door before he did, the place was quiet, mostly empty actually, he figured it was due to the time of day. He looked around for a moment and st in the back corner booth.
Walking over ther he sat his back against the wall, a old habbit of his as well, something that helped when you were not sure who might come into a room and needed to have your six covered. "About your earlier question, I think it is best that we weight till we cross that bridge, I am still not sold this is random, and anything done once can be down twice," he mused as he looked over at her.
"So, what else about you can you say, Miss Ayane?" he asked as he looked over at her, he thought about her eariler question, he knew that it was possible that this was random, but till he knew it, he would not give up hope of returning to his world. He had people who counted on him, Eve, Train for example.

Ayane Yatsumi
Most of the doubts about Sven had faded. If he'd wanted to pull any fast stunts, the bounty hunter had tons of other opportunities. He'd hinted that much during the fight. But there were still quite a few other factors keeping poor Ayane on edge. All wound up tracing back to the attack, who exactly was behind them and - most importantly - why. But that was another road she would walk towards when the signs got pointed to it. Until then, she'd forget about it for now and focus on the meal they were going to have.
Faint tinges of crimson crossed her face. Personally, local police was ... respectable, yes. But she didn't know if it was worthy of as much praise as Sven was giving her. She'd accept it but the future boss wasn't used to being noticed, especially in a positive manner. "Thank you. Oh ... wow. This .... is sounding less and less random, honestly." Ayane mused, noting the number of similarities she was sharing with this man. Was it because they were so alike that they'd been dragged here? Whyhadhe even been included in this .... mess? Well, it was to some degrees. Situation? Yeah, that seemed to be the best word to use at the moment.
Regardless, she had no damn clue and he didn't sound like he did either.
As they arrived at the booth, she took her seat and noted he was still standing. Her mouth had opened to inquire if he was really comfortable like that .. but halted. If that wasn't the case, he would have likely sat down. So her focus went to his last question instead on more about herself. Her eyes looked down towards the menu before a soft sigh left her lips.
"... Well ... " Her voice lowered as Ayane nodded. "It may not - and probably doesn't - mean anything here. But I was supposed to be taking over a major mafia family in my world. I didn't get many other details besides that though. I was ... removed before I could learn more." If no one else, at least Sven needed to know this much. Besides, with his experiences in the detective and bounty hunter fields, maybe he could figure something out that Ayane had been missing regarding all they were going through.
For all either of them knew, this hadn't been as random as it appeared. Any and everything, really, was possible. And partly from that revelation, she shoved aside the more grim and deviant thoughts that tried to enter her mind, continuing to attempt to focus upon the menu before her.

"Mafia member huh, I didn't know those things were still around," he said as he looked at her, he knew old movies where they had mafia types, but they hadn't been around in his world in forever, chronos had long taken care of them for the most part. He smiled as he figured she didn't look like the average thug at all, or person who he would be bounty hunting. He figured he would give her a benifit of the doubt, she seemed okay, she was a woman too, and the green haired Sven looked past it till he had a reason not to.
"So you come from a world where you are a mafia agent and I come from a world where their is no mafia, but there is chronos, they area a organization of assassins that kills anyone who might be bad or does anything bad in the world, their top assassins are just known as numbers one to thirteen," he explained as he looked at her knowing that his world would be odd for her to hear about. He looked up and ordered a burger from the woman, as well as fries and a beer before he put cigarette out in the ash trey and took out a piece of hot candy and ate it quietly as he thought about the situation more.
"Why would someone want to bring a mafia princess and a bounty hunter to a world, I mean there could be a real reason, this world is messed up after all, perhaps it cause of our bast worlds and all, though if they had done that they would of brought train not me," he said thinking about it, realzing that she had no idea who he was talking about, "my partner was the top number or assassin before he reformed," he quickly explained to her
"So, this world is messed up, everything is for sell, that tells me there is some central source of this problem, perhaps they would know about it, maybe not though as whoever summoned us might of done it and been there enemy having no other choose but to look for outside help," he mused more as he tried to think of an answer before the food arrived which caused the green haired man to smile before eating his first bite and nodding approvingly of the food.

Ayane Yatsumi
"The Vongola family's been around for twelve generations now. It's pretty .. strong from where I come from." That was one of the biggest, most major and simultaneously intriguing differences between them. She'd always known of the family she was supposed to take over. It was difficult to think of an individual who didn't hear of a mafia family existing. But it helped clarify they were definitely from different locations. If nothing else, the ability to learn all that was being revealed to her was .. interesting. It certainly made up for having been unceremoniously removed from her university. She had to learn of something else if not law.
"Your Chronos actually sounds like what the Varia family used to be. They're a sub-member of the Vongola family. They reformed but two years ago, there was a major conflict between them and the future Juudaime. They still are assassins but they now know better than to attempt an in-mafia coup."
After a bit more brief glancing at the menu, she ordered some spaghetti, a roll, and soda. Despite having come from Japan, she had always been fond of Italian food. And though she hadn't gotten many details about why it would be her who would take over the Vongola family, their existence had become stronger over the past several years. So it was more common knowledge than discreet. Since they counted in certain degrees with the law field, she had read up on all she could of them.
Her head shook as she took a sip of her drink. "I have no idea. But we may be over-thinking on this, honestly. There probably is a reason but it could be more simple than we're assuming. Until we can get more information, though, there's no real sense on dwelling too much about the unknown." Her head bowed as she silently gave thanks for the meal before beginning to eat.
A new thought entered her after a few moments and only when she finished chewing did Ayane let the idea leave her. "So ... in terms of finding a place to stay in ... how should we go about that exactly? I don't think splitting up in such a foreign location would be smart. And aside from you, I don't really know anyone else let alone who all is on which side. So ... " Her question trailed off as she allowed Sven to fill in the blanks with any ideas or suggestions he may have.
gpt
"Well Chronos is a bit different then that, but I see your point, um.." he said pausing for a moment, "Chronos would be like a supernational group, the nations of the world pay them to take care of their dirty work, new dicatator in a country, they kill him before he can cause problems for anyone, or they make the people who might cause the world problems disapear, fi that makes sense," Sven explained before he nodded to her thought, it was possible for them to be over thinking the situation. He sat there and thought about it, most likely they were overthinking the situation it was beyond the norm that this was just random, but they could cross that bridge when they got there.
He looked at the burger for a moment and took another bite of the food, "As for a place to stay, it should be easy, there is a hotel next to this place, I am sure they have a room, most rooms come with double beds in my world at least, so we get a room, stay there for a low rate as possible and we than tomorrow go and explore this world more, figure out what is going on and gather information, than we will know what best to do after that," he explained his thoughts as he looked past the woman for a moment.
"So, do you have any one important back home, someone you care about and who will miss you," he asked looking beyond her still for a moment. It was the most troublesome thing about being stuck in this world, the thing he hated so damn much about it. "I have a kind of daughter, back home, her name is Eve, she isn't normal but she is a good girl," he said as he looked over giving her a bit more infromation about his group of friends, "also some close friends too."
He wondered what they were up to at that hour, if they were looking for him calling out for information, it would seem likely, he knew they would be worried, his disapearance might rock the boat a good bit. He sighed, he missed his friends, he was used to having them around him as he spent his days working with them keeping the street clean.

Ayane Yatsumi
After letting the words repeat in her mind a few times over, Ayane gave a nod. It made enough sense for her to understand. Not perfect or as well compared to if she could see the group for herself. But it was ample to help her avoid too much confusion. "Hm, interesting. Usually just a person or small group of people pay off such individuals. But nations? That's ... new but not unheard of. Just rare. Well .. for me it is. But yes, it all does make sense." She added, twirling a few noodles upon her fork and beginning to eat.
A set of inward curses echoed in the young woman's head. She should have worded that question better though thankfully, Sven had translated it pretty well enough. While she had kept to being honest on not wanting to split up, she was also hoping his guess was correct on the room having a double bed. If push came to shove .. she'd share. But man would it be awkward. If nothing else, though, it made her all the more grateful that Ayane had saved those six bullets. Nightwasthe more common time for attacks, after all. She'd be ready ... and trusted Sven to be as well. Not just from his display he'd given earlier but also hearing more and more of his line of work.
"... Yeah. My mom." Her spirits sank as she gathered more noodles on the fork. "Dad walked out on us when I was about ... five. So she's all I've had. Even though it took her so much, she never once gave up on raising me. But .. that's it. I never really dated or anything. Err ... daughter? So ... you have a significant other? Or ... mind elaborating on that a bit?"
The thought didn't overly amaze her. Sven had quite the exotic look much like herself, making him easily attractive. Not that appearances were what she judged by but it was definitely a nice bonus. Much like the bounty hunter across from her, Ayane's thoughts shifted to Japan and her home. There had been a few times she'd been away from her mom, excluding while at the university. But all of those had been arranged and she'd known of them. This ... was something that Ayane had never gotten to inform anyone about.
And partly because of that alone, it genuinely worried her. Her mom was, no doubt, having a very justified fit. Or she would be by the next day if she wasn't yet. Her head lowered slightly as she continued to eat, giving her body more strength and energy in the process.

Svan listened to her as he pulled out a cegarette, and was about to put it in his mouth before he saw the no smoking policy and let out a soft sigh as he found it rather annoying. He looked at her as she explaied that she had a mother and he nodded his head he could could tell that missed her mother a lot, that did make sense, he didn't like to see a woman suffer, it was not what a gentleman was suppose to do, it was against the gentleman's code as it were.
"Well, no, I am not married nor in a relationship either, the girl, well I saved her," he said with a smile as he looked at her for a moment, "you see, I ran a job to rescue her and well, somehow managed to free her, ever since then she has been living with me and has been a partner in a way too, she isn't normal," he said leaving out the other information about the nanotech powered female. He smiled at her as he looked at her, "I am sure my friends are looking for me, and there is some strange powers in my world, who knows maybe they will even be able to figure out a way to get us out of here, if they were would you be willing to pay a stop over in my world," he asked looking at her giving her a small smile as he did so.
Sven leaned back in the chair and looked over at her and then paused for a moment, "Well now, the foods was pretty good, and it nice to not be around someone who eats me out of all my money too," he said with a smile as he remembered those moments and how even when broke, Train could eat a full massive plate of bread crusts just by himself, it was odd to see.
Sven put money to down and got to his feet, "I think we should check in, find our room and perhaps relax for a bit," he said his tone laid back a bit as he got up, the white suit wearing man waiting for Ayane, as he walked over and opened the door for her and let her walk though before him, that was a given for him to do. He held the door at the hotel too as he got them a room and checked in. "It seems nice enough," he said, the place was pretty run of the mill but it would work well enough. He walked down the hall opening the door to their room which happened to have two beds as he and she hoped it would.

Ayane Yatsumi
The no smoking was a hit and miss. Admittedly, the smell never was pleasant for Ayane.Butas long as he didn't try to force her to join him, she wouldn't otherwise care if he lit up a cigarette or not. It'd always been her policy on the cancer sticks.
Just as Sven was finding it nice to be around someone who was giving him a nice change of pace, the same could be said on Ayane's behalf. As much as she enjoyed being around her mom, classmates, comrades and other vital individuals ... it was nice to be in a slightly new environment. Granted, she could do without being chased down and for unknown reasons. But the change otherwise wasn't too bad. If nothing else, Sven had definitely gotten her attention, something that was actually difficult to do.
She gave another nod as he explained his daughter was adopted and not from a lover. "Ahh .. I see. That's sweet to have even made an effort. Not everyone in this world has such a mindset."
After a few more bites, Ayane was done with her own plate. Keeping to her promise, she placed half of the bill down and stood up, leaving with the bounty hunter to go to the hotel. It ... wasn't the best but she'd seen and heard of worse. So compared to anything it could have been, this was actually rather decent. And thank gods, it did indeed have the separate beds.
"It is." She agreed, sitting upon the bed on the right side of the room. A weary sigh left her lips as she let her head fall upon the pillow. Sheshouldtry for rest, Ayane knew. But after that chase? It .. was nerve-wracking. She wasn't in the mood to shut her eyes only to wake up in ... a much darker and creepier location.

"It is part of the gentleman's code to help ladies and children out," he said looking at her as he walked i nto the room, "of course I had to help her out, I mean she wasn't even allowed live a normal childhood, what type of person would I be if I didn't help her out seriously," he said as if was just common nature for people to adopt those who were in trouble. "Anyhow, this place isn't so bad, I have stayed in worse dives, let me tell you, some of those places were bad, roach motels, I think they are called, or half pub half hotel places that smell of booze," he added in as he carefully took off his jacket and put it up as well as his tie so that he could wear them the next day after he washed them by hand and dried them and ironed them out.
"So, this world, don't think I like it so much, wish I could of been taken to a more peaceful world, maybe one with some fun places to go visit where people aren't thugs," he said as he looked out the window, he let out a soft sigh, "Anyhow, Ayane, what do you think you will do if you can't get home, it is a drag don't you think, not being able to find those who matter the most to you, being in a bad spot like this, well I guess we have to work together," he said looking over at her for a moment giving her a half smile, "How about this, your my new partner while we are here, we work collect bounties and look for information for a way back home," he proposed to her as he walked across the carpet having taken his shoes off he was only in his pants now.
"So, your world, do people have strange powers in it, like in mine we battled a group who had tao magic and eve, she was actually infused with nanotechnology," he asked curious to see if his world was the only one of their two home worlds that had strange things happen in it. He waited calmly for her reply as he fixed up his bed, before taking off his pants leaving the green haired man with just a eye patch and boxers on, not really so ashamed of himself either as he looked out the window, "Yeah, this world, has a bad feeling to it, I really don't think we are the only ones here for some reason, just call it a gut feeling," he mused to her as he paused for a moment.
He got under the covers and had to much on his mind to sleep not even bothering turning off the light to sleep for a bit at least seeing that Ayane was awake, he knew that if the white haired woman was drifting off he could then turn off the lights till then he might as well leave them on.

Ayane Yatsumi
Codes? I thought knights and paladins followed such things?
An amused smile crossed her face as she nodded. "Fair. Well ... it's nice to hear chivalry hasn't been completely forgotten about. It's an incredibly rare trait to find in men." Even when she thought on it, that fight wouldn't have gone well without Sven. Maybe two of them could have been dealt with alone. But four? No. That depressed and scared her. If he hadn't shown up ... no. She didn't want to think of what would have happened. As she watched Sven take off some of his clothes, she pondered whether to follow suit or not. Sheshould... but it'd be awkward as hell. Even if he didn't stare ... Sven was still mostly a stranger to her.
Ayane wound up going against it for a couple reasons. She could go at least one night with wearing the same clothes. More importantly, two, she would get new clothes in the morning now that she had currency which worked here. And from what she had noticed, that man only worked at the gun store. Hopefully there wouldn't be another run in with him or any of his ... associates.
"... I haven't thought that far. Just the possibility that we may not be able to get back. Usually, though, there's a reversal with everything .... " Usually, unfortunately, was the major keyword in that sentence. "Well ... " Her head gazed up to the ceiling, thinking on the offer. A bounty hunter was't much different than a mafia boss. And hell, it may help her prepare for her role when - if - she got back. Honestly, the idea didn't sound too bad. She may as well learn and get stronger while the opportunities remained.
An affirmative nod and her smile widening would both be seen. "Sure. That sounds good."
Her head turned to face Sven as she nodded slowly again. "Yes ... but .... I'm not sure what Flame I have. It's ... like an element. I know those with the Sun are great healers. Storm is destruction ... their powers can literally rip through flesh. Mist is illusions. There's some others I'm missing. Ishouldbe Sky assuming I'm continuing the tradition that all the Vongola bosses have in the past. Each were a Sky Flame user through every single generation. But I never got to test that .... nor do I know how it works."
Her tone hinted she was clearly distraught at that very fact. All she had were six bullets andmaybethe ability to use hand-to-hand. It wasn't her best but she could resort to it as a secondary if needed. Again, another set of keywords; if needed. And even when she had to use it, her strength versus any other male's here likely wasn't as good.
Suddenly, Ayane felt so very weak and vulnerable.
"It ... really does feel horrid. But ... really? You think there are others?" True, it was possible. But if more did get dragged here ... why? There had to be a reason though that had pretty much been established. Her head began to hurt as she tried to figure it all out.
Ayane adjusted herself, keeping her body on her side. The look in Sven's eyes was akin to one she'd seen on herself thanks to mirrors. A small chuckle left as her smile widened a bit more. "Can't sleep, can you?" She asked.
gpt
Sven looked at her pausing for a moment, and blinked for a second, "Well your people have powers and my people have powers, perhaps there is some side effect of this, that someone can use to their benifit, you said you meet a gun sellsman, did you see anything that wouldn't fit in a normal weapons store at all," he asked as he looked at her and than wondered if their was some clue that she perhaps was missing on or something that would cause things to add up better in his mind as he thought over everything adding up the sum and finding it not working up to that moment.
"That sounds like the Tao Masters, your powers, also the chronos have weapons made from a special metal, Orichalcum, it was a metal created by them so that nothing could harm their weapons and their weapons could break though anything for example," Sven explained as he looked over at the woman for a moment as he pressed his elbows onto the bed and pressed himself up. He thought about it more, the more he did he knew there was nothing random, nothing ever happened cause of random chance as much as by plan. He had seen that happen to many time to think that it was random chance now.
"We shall keep an eye out for others, maybe they were brought in before, maybe they are to be brought in who knows, there is other worlds if we both come from our own right," he asked calmly as he looked at her, "if we both come from worlds with different elements and powers then other worlds woudl have different powers then our own wouldn't they, or at least that woudl be a reasonable expectation woudln't you agree," he mused looking over at her as he continued to think. His dectective side was keeping him awake a case that needed to be solve was in front of him and it was hard to focus on anything else but that.
He got up and poured himself a cup of coffee as he looked around and looked in the closet and found a laptop kept there for guest, he put it on the table and puged it in as he took a ship of the dark black coffee, he wasn't going to get sleep now, but he could always sleep in. He pulle up the browser and looking at things for a moment finding that this world was different anything and everything was for sell, women, guns, anything. He was amazed at how far he guessed this world had fallen based on the sells adds he saw.

Ayane Yatsumi
"Everything looked normal. But he insisted that my gun was ... custom-made somehow and thus none of the bullets would have worked for it. He never explained why or how though." That should have been another alarm which had resounded much faster in her head and a sign Luigi would be someone to be weary of. Sure, this world was different. But the States were infamous for having foreign-made guns. Hers being 'custom' made almost no sense. And it was just a pistol. No, theyshouldhave had the appropriate ammunition. The fact they didn't made her ponder what it was about this place that had nearly made her unable to purchase something so easy - in concept - as mere bullets.
There truly was much more to this city than what met the eyes.
"Maybe. I've never actually seen them activated so .. they could be." An annoyed sigh left her lips. "I wish I could say more and even show them." Did they even awaken? Probably. But without the guarantee, it added further onto the sensations of feeling so hopeless and vulnerable.
Simultaneously, that helped Ayane decide after clothes, bullets would be bought tomorrow. It may have only been that one store. If push came to shove, she could get another pistol with bullets that would work in this world. It'd have a different feel to it but ... she could probably adjust easily enough.
"Well .. I guess, yes." She admitted upon hearing Sven's theory on why others may still be here. Would that wind up being a good or bad thing? It'd be a slim chance but perhaps the man who had been trying to inform her would be taken here as well? It'd be nice if at least someone with more knowledge than herself would be introduced into this world. She felt pathetic having so little knowledge especially on her own abilities.
Sapphire orbs followed the bounty hunter as he got up. That alone easily spelled he was indeed as restless as she was. Slipping out of bed, she sat down beside him and felt her face pale a bit as she managed to catch sight of some of the ads.
".... What in the .... ??"
How was any of this legal?! How could people get away with selling others, including women? This place made no sense. This world wasn't just foreign but clearly very corrupt. It only strengthened Ayane's resolve and desire to want to go home somehow, someway.
gpt
He looked at the adds for a moment longer, as he then let out a sigh as he did find a bounty location for bounties of criminals, it seemed that while selling things was big business bring thugs in was too. He wrote down the address as he wondered what was up with this world, everything was messed up. For the green haired man, he wasn't sure what to thing, or what to search for. He let out a soft sigh as he looked over at Ayane. He had a good guess now why they were after her. He took a deep breath as he knew things were not so simple here, or maybe they were and it was just to dark for him to want to think about it.
"They were after you, I think, to sell," he mused as he looked at her and then looked at the screen, "perhaps this is more complex, maybe they wanted to use you, it woudln't be unknown to do such a thing, I mean these people here are rather messed up based on this," he mused as he closed the computer and sat back on the bed, "Tomorrow, I think it is best we got to the bounty area, we can see who they consider criminals in the town and look for work. I think that we have to play it quiet, keep out of sight and keep our eye open, all of this yells something very big and not good," he mused as he looked at her.
Sven knew that she had to not be feeling well, she was a target perhaps, she might be their real target, perhaps someone even brought her in this world cause they knew they could handle her and sell her for a massive amount of cash. It wasn't something that was a plesant though and would be troubling her a great deal. He let out a sigh, "So, Ayane, what do you think, if you have any different ideas, I am all ears right now, and will be more thean willing to listen to any of them."
Sven looked up as he rubbed his nose before yawning, he drank enough coffee it didn't really effect him any more. He let out a soft sigh from his lips as he turned towards her and rested his eyes lightly falling into a very light sleep, something that he knew was needed given their location at this moment and just how dangerous it happened to be. He knew that these people were not ones he shoudl trust at least.

Ayane Yatsumi
For a while, Ayane silently stared in disgust and shock with Sven at the ads. When he shifted his attention elsewhere, however, she went back to her bed and slid back under the covers. Her eyes closed as she tried to think of something to help forget of the very real but grim possibility on why she'd been so desperately sought out. The task was much easier said than done, especially without having much on her. Her MP3 player had been left at home. Pretty much everything, truthfully, was in the other world. The stress and worries were actually tempting her to consider lighting up for the first time in her life.
But her head shook no. She wouldn't give into such a desire even with the truth all but hovering over her. "... I ... don't really want to think on it, please." She replied. Any and all hopes of falling asleep had practically vanished. She felt wide awake and too terrified to actually drift into any form of slumber. It was stupid, Ayane knew. She wouldneedthe rest, whether she wished for it or not. But she truly was scared for her life and innocence.
Her head shook again as she managed to find enough courage to reply to Sven. "Well ... it seems like the criminals rule here. That being said, it ... isn't overly likely we'll be able to go to anyone much if at all for support. Our best betswouldbe if others were transferred here. But otherwise, I can't think of much more to add to the thoughts. We need to find more out."
It wasn't the best answer, she knew, but it was something. A weary sigh left her lips and soon enough, the physical and mental exhaustion took their respective tolls upon the future boss. She hadn't expected it but sure enough, sleep wound up dominating her anyways. Though truth be told, it likely was for the best anyways. She'd need to be alert and conscious for the next day so .. sleep would assist out with that.

As the group slept, other people were busy, early the next morning, mostly was one dark haired crime boss, Luigi, he was pissed he didn't have Ayane up in chain working on making her his person object of fun. He knew shew asn't normal and he had a good idea as to why she seemed so odd. He didnt' say this when he dealth with her, as he didnt' expect to see someone come though the barrier so soon. L:uigi knew that the group failed, that some local guy had helped the woman and was protecting her. He didn't know who he was, maybe it was just luck, and he knew that group was a joke too, he used them for missions that were easy to achieve.
He looked at the gun he had, it wasn't from his world, it was from amother world, that he was able to copy something from it with his technology, it would give him so much more power than ever before. He knew that that such technology was key to expanding his empire from just over the one city to over the whole of the nation and in time the whole of the world. He smirked as he felt happy that he would be able to expand his power. Power was the greatest assets of any person, he knew that he could pull it off, getting the most power ever.
Luigi pulled out his phone and called a couple of small time assassins to keep their eye out for the group. He went to a small timers cause he didn't want the other possible rivals to him to know that something was up, he knew that if it was a small time person who took them down then it would go unnoticed and would be a minor thing compared to how it was. He wanted her captured, he wanted to enjoy his time with her and he wanted to find out what else he could take from her, perhaps even her laitent powers that he was sure she had.
As Luigi put up is phone he got another phone call that a delievery was being made to him, someone else he had been targetting was being brought in, this person would make a good pay day as he would enjoy her, but then he would send her to his trainers to be sold off for a large pay day and then he would be able to use that money to advance his own technology. Luigi would only have a small amount of time to wait till the group brough the female to him.

Ayane Yatsumi
By nine in the morning, Ayane's internal alarm clock finally woke the young girl up. It was a habit she was highly used to and honestly, she feared what could very well happen if she slept far too long in this world. After a quick glance, she noted that - thankfully - she was still beside Sven. That made a low sigh of relief elicit from her lips as her head fell against the pillow. The fear of being found and taken away during the night had been a concern. Then again, it hadn't fully vanished altogether. Oh no. But it wasn't the immediate thing she was thinking of either.
Slipping out of the bed, Ayane began to make it, putting the sheets and covers back into place. True, the maids who worked here probably would have gotten it. But it was a habit of hers to clean up after herself. For a while, she sat on the bed before a new thought came to her.
Heading back to the laptop, she tried to check up on her e-mail. Bringing it back over to the bed she'd been sleeping on, a new surge of hope flooded through Ayane. If this could work and she could properly create a correspondence to her mom or someone from her world, maybe that would be a step in getting herself and Sven out of here. But she could think of few reasons it should fail and that made her spirits quickly raise.

Sven woke up the next morning knowing nothing about what had happened involveing the man Ayane ran into or the fact they had new people on their trail either. Sven opened his eye as he looked around, his orange eye scanning the are, he remembered quickly where he was and because of that where he wasn't. A soft sighe came from his lips at that realization, it wasn't the best thing to remember, but he also knew it could be much worse too. Sven looked at Ayane looking at the laptop, he wasn't sure how much longer she had been than him, but he figured it had been a decent bit.
"It might work, maybe the fact that the person pulled us from across worlds or dimensions would leave our goods connect to the old one," he mused as he thought about it for a moment unsure if what she was trying would or wouldn't work at all. He went in and took his shower, the water was good enough warm enough as the green haired man showed before coming out in a new pair of boxers before he washed his clothes by hand and than dried them in his breifcase as he watched what Ayane was doing for a long moment before he looked outside, it was a large city they were in so many things around them.
"Thinking today we should figure out what the bounties are as well as I need to know what your capable of," he said looking at her as he rubbed his chin for a moment, his eyes focused on her, "do you have any training in combat, tracking or tactics, or anything like that," Sven asked calmly as he walked over and made two cups of coffee one for himself and one for Ayane if she would want a cup of coffee. He wasn't sure though as he had not seen her even drink any since he had meet her. He figured it was possible that she did , and also possible that she didn't drink coffee, both were realistic possiblities.

Ayane Yatsumi
"Morning." Ayane greeted upon seeing - with peripheral vision but still - and hearing Sven stir and wake up. Her focus remained on the e-mail she was still making. She'd finished typing her name out and began to double and triple check the message. Her head nodded after ensuring nothing had been missed. Her hand guided the mouse down as she clicked the "Send" button. Her heart skipped a few beats. There hadn't been a message saying it had failed. So as far as Ayane was concerned, it had gone through. But she knew in the end, time would be the ultimate factor in determining whether the e-mail had really gone through or not.
"Hopefully .. it did." She replied, stretching as she got to her feet. While Sven got his shower in, Ayane put the laptop away into it's spot and sat back on her bed. The thought did cross her mind to get her own in after the bounty hunter finished. But she had nowhere to store her clothes even if she did wash them by hand. Her head shook. She could wait to buy a few new sets before the day was over.
A new twinge of guilt shot through Ayane as he asked of what she could do. While the answer was a major accomplishment, one out of three possibilities just ... didn't feel good enough for her. "Combat mainly. Even before being informed I was supposed to take over a mafia family, I've done years of Aikido and Judo. If push comes to shove though, I can rely on instincts alone." She added, remembering that the second guy she had beaten had required such tactics. After all, no martial arts encouraged people to use the handle of a gun to hit an enemy with. No, that .. had just been her gut feelings and desire to live, get through the fight speaking to her.
Normally, she didn't drink coffee straight. Not without at leastsomesugar. But honestly, the strong taste may do her some good. Her head bowed as she accepted it and made a slight face as she swallowed. "But ... um ... yeah that's basically it." She added, keeping the cup held in her right hand.

The detective nodded his head as he looked at her for a moment and then got dressed as his clothes where dry now. He was glad she had hope that she could reach those who she cared about. He fixed his clothes making sure they were on correctly as the white suit clad man stretched for a second as he picked up his briefcase making sure everything inside was set up correctly before he looked over at her, "that will do, we shall just make sure we get ourselves into spots where we don't have to have big shoot outs," he explained as he stretched his hands over his head.
"Now you might want to get dressed, I think we might want to find some more clothes, something more fitting and stlyish for you perhaps that would go with this world better than what you have on, that way you can slip into the background better, I think that might be the first thing that we need to do, if you don't mind," he said looking at her as he paused for a moment giving her a look over thinking what type of clothes would go for the white haired young woman. "So, got to ask, do you have a boyfriend back in your world, you seem like the princess type honestly, and well they always have a boyfriend hidden away somewhere or a crush at least," he mused looking at her as he sat down waiting for her to reply for a moment.
"The faster your ready the faster we can get moving and figure out what you should be wearing here and finding out more info on bounties we can use to make money," he commented as he looked over at her resting his back a moment later against the bed half laying on it with his feet still on the ground. He figured that Ayane might not actually want to take a shower, but he would give her time if she did.
Inside his hideout, Luigi went got a message it was simple, two really one was that he got a price for the heads of the two targets from a minor player in the city and two, he had a report that the young woman had arrived taken right to his underground dungeon to be handled by him when and where he wanted. Things were looking up already, the powerful dark haired thugs smirked as he thought about the good odds of his group in the coming week reaching higher levels of power and himself being the center of that change.

Ayane Yatsumi
A frown crossed her face as she looked down at herself. "... Yeah, I know. But I don't really have any extras." Still, maybe at least a shower would suffice if nothing else. Catching a few silver strands and twirling them gently around her right index finger, she nodded after a bit and entered the bathroom. Even from there, Ayane could still hear the other questions being asked towards her. It'd be easy enough to continue the conversation.
It was definitely new and a bit ... nerve-wracking to change with a stranger ten paces away from her. But steadily, article after article of clothing began to leave her body. A low chuckle left as she glanced at her half-nude figure upon hearing the princess look seeming to apply to her. "I'm flattered but ... I've never seen myself as such. But ... no. I don't have one. I've been too ... academic-minded to worry about dating or anything. Though I have had it pushed on me to try to find someone before, mainly by friends though my mom also at times. So no. No boyfriend or crush."
Well damn don't you sound pathetic?
She frowned at herself and inwardly sighed, continuing to strip and remove the clothes from herself. It really did sound pretty .. sad now that she thought on it. Never dated, never kissed ... nothing. Sex wasn't foreign to her, in concept, thanks to school and health class. Otherwise, she truly was a complete virgin. Her cheeks darkened upon the revelation and soon she finished slipping her panties off. Her hand reached out and turned the water on. Ayane allowed two fingers to remain under the water, waiting for the temperature to change before stepping inside.
"Hotels aren't famous for having ample amounts of shampoo or conditioner so it shouldn't take too long." She reassured, grabbing a wash cloth and beginning to coat it with soap. Her head raised to better expose her neck as she began cleaning underneath it and steadily trailing further down.
This was all an odd thought, being the partner of a bounty hunter. Not bad by any means, mind you. In fact it was one of the closer things to a mafia member. So .. maybe this would be good practice for when she got back home and took over? It seemed like a sound plan. But she was worried that she wouldn't be good enough and would merely get in his way. Or even worse, get him hurt .... maybe killed. It was bad enough to know Ayane was already being sought out. But it felt wrong to be dragging Sven into this mess.
And yet .. just as she was his partner, he was becoming akin to a guardian. Their jobwasto protect the future boss so .. was that what he was? It made sense andcouldwork. But that still didn't mean she enjoyed feeling as if she were forcing Sven to do so much with and for her.
"I'm thinking ... " She called out, "Something along the lines of a blouse, jeans and shoes ... sneakers probably for an outfit." It was casual but allowed for more of a princess-like look to be added to her. Skirts never had pockets and it was one of the few items she preferred to hold onto herself. Same with her pistol. Plus a skirt would have made it awkward to get her gun out and at the ready. It seemed ... reasonable enough. Her head nodded and eyes closed as she began to apply shampoo into her hair.
gpt
Sven took a deep breath as he thought about his situation quietly hearing the water running as he closed his eyes for a moment he knew that this was a interesting situation, but he figured that he would need help friends to get thought the situation. He could see that Ayane could be a good friend, she seemed a good enough person, and had a good heart, he knew that they could be someone who could be a good partner while they figured out how to get by in this world. He knew that he was going to be on top of his game, which wasn't hard, but he knew he had to keep an eye open for the blue eyed young woman.
Sven looked as he got to his feet and then knew that Ayane was out of the shower and than held the door open for her as he looked at the address and the directions for the bounty location. He figured that it would be a interesting trip, he held open the door and then make a mental note of where they needed to go next and where they would have to go from the stores to find the bounty hunting bounties. He than walked down the hall, they would be there later that day again, as he walked he carried his steal breifcase in his left on the elevators.He waited for it to open and then walked in and held it for her as he then went down and than went down to the first floor. "Well, sounds like we have a plan," he said calmly as he walked out of the lobby into the daytime.
It was a nice day, really nice actually he smiled as he was glad he had his hat to share his eye from the sun. He walked ahead as he stayed close to Ayane as he walked down the side walk. As he walked, he kept an eye on people as he could see that everyone moved along their way, not realy paying attention to them or him for example. He walked down to the large stories for clothes and household goods, he walked into one of the rooms and than smiled as he looked at her and than waited for her to find the things that she was looking for her clothes that would look best on her body. He looked for some simple supplies counting on Ayane to tell him if she needed help.

Ayane Yatsumi
It took but a few minutes to get the last bits of both shampoo and then conditioner out of her hair. As much as Ayane would have heavily preferred to be able to dry her hair properly, with a blow dryer, she knew Sven was right. They had things to do. She used a towel instead, making it semi-dry by rubbing it up and down over the silver strands. Slipping the old clothes back onto her body, Ayane walked out in the same clothes she'd been wearing. The shower had definitely helped all the same though.
Her eyes glanced down towards her pistol. She didn't want to cause any riots or scenes. But no way was she just disarming herself. So the future boss compromised by keeping her shirt untucked and thus covering the firearm. It wouldn't be much but it was something.
To say it was intimidating to step out of the hotel was an understatement. Ayane had no real idea on who to look out for, who was working for or against her. But letting fear dominate her wouldn't do anything but make their already desperate situation far worse. She took a long, deep breath and began to follow Sven, finding herself in an elevator, out of the hotel, and finally in a department store.
"Yeah .. it does. I'll give a signal if something comes up." She promised. The concept of separating herself from Sven, even if only for a few minutes, was slightly nerve-wracking. But it would have been uncomfortable for him to watch her grab certain items of clothes, mainly the lingerie. Using the signs inside the store, she guided herself towards the women's clothes and began to go through all she had mentioned about getting back at the hotel, starting with the blue jeans.
gpt
Eyes were on them, mostly on Ayane as they walked, a single assassin had been targeting her for a while. Well, since he got the message of when he was asked to capture her from Luigi. He smirked as he looked at the group move though the store and than followed her though the clothes area well enough to be hidden as he wondered around and waited for her to go to the dressing room. He would than surprise her and maybe have some fun with the smoking hot silver haired woman as well.
Sven looked at her for a moment smiling as he turned to find goods, he bumped into the assassin. He looked at her walk by him and than followed him. Something was off. He opened his vision eye as he looked at the man moving the eye patch out of the way. He vision eye gave him a view of what was going to happen a few moments in the future. He saw him and Ayane, Ayane was pressed up against the window of the changing room, with this scum violating her. He felt a bit tired from it but he wasn't going to let that happen. He followed him, he was moving towards dressing room behind Ayane.
Sven made his move, dang it she was going to hate him for this perhaps. He pressed his arm against the mans back knocking him down and than using his knock out gas as soon as he could on the man, knocking him out right than and there. Sven let out a sigh of relieve as he had avoided the image which was not uncommon for him to do, but still, good. He looked over and saw Ayane in a state of undress as he turned red and looked down,"sorry, seems you had someone tracking you, Ayane."

Ayane Yatsumi
That annoying sensation of not being completely alone taunted Ayane. And not just from the crowd around her. No. It was more like when one was being stalked by a predator or something of the like. Her head had turned a few times. All the silver haired mafia boss saw were more people. Admittedly, the sight of some men near the women's section was ... unnerving and very out of place. But she dismissed it for now. She had several pairs of the outfits that the young woman wished to wear with the blouses, bras, and panties in various colors.
The same sensation pestered her once again as she began to head to the dressing room. Silver locks whipped as her head turned once again. One of the same male figures was ... a bit closer than she'd desired. Her eyes studied him. He had been one of the same ones, correct?
Ayane's reply came in the form of Sven knocking the man and out confirming it. Her body shook slightly. Even now, let alone after being in this world for so short, she was already being tracked down? It scared and pissed her off. Her head shook as she sighed.
"Thank you ... goddamn this place." She'd never wanted to go home so badly before now. "I ... I'll be back." She murmured, running a few fingers through her hair before heading inside. A part of her felt silly. She knew these would all fit fine and because of that, she wanted to pay for the clothes and then leave. But it was better to make damn well sure, especially with these being American sizes as opposed to Japanese. There was a huge difference and it was enough to make certain Ayane hadn't gotten anything too small or too big.
gpt
Sven looked away never seeing her as he knew he had stopped the man dead in his tracks. He nodded his head as he sat down on the ground and tied up the man who he knocked down. He had captured him, which meant he could find something out perhaps from him.Sven leaned against the wall as he knew that this guy would be his answer or rather he was going to talk when he was awake. He knew his eye had its down fall though and it was why he was resting.
The eye want his own and for that reason, whenever he used it, it bleed out his energetic quite quickly every time. Yet, at the same time it had been needed. He could wait on Ayane while she did what she needed to do. He worried that even with a change in clothes and style would they still be found so easy. He hoped not. He hoped that she would be able to avoid such things. Plus maybe with this knowledge that they got from this man they would be so in the blind guessing at what was happening around them all the time.
Sven let out a sigh as he reached for a cigarette but was unable to find any on him, if there was a time to smoke this was it and he couldn't. He did have a hot pepper jaw breaker in his pocket still. He put it in his mouth as it would have to do till she got back and till they could maybe go get something to eat later. First gather info, than take the guy in for a reward and than have something to eat. As he thought it over it seemed like a solid plan to him.

Ayane Yatsumi
To say Ayane was terrified at this point was an understatement. Her hands and body were all trembling. The very thought and knowledge of being tracked down and followed was scary. She still had no exact idea why besides as a sex slave, assuming there may be more in the first place. Even if there wasn't though, the definite answer was more than ample to make her urges to leave this land strengthen even more. Thankfully, all the clothes had indeed fit her perfectly.
Even as Ayane exited, her hands were still shaking. She looked to Sven and gave him a slow nod. "Alright. I'm ... ready to pay and head out." She replied, holding all the clothes she had chosen draped over her arms. Her eyes caught the bound figure, making her swallow softly. Why? She still didn't understand. And part of her wanted to know but another didn't even wish to be told the no doubt grim truth.
Her feet tensed as she prepared to follow Sven out of the store after paying for everything. The poor maiden would give anything to head straight back to a hotel room. But after the close call ... no. An interrogation of sorts would be needed. It was a card she didn't like playing but she did know how to question people. Still, she would let the bounty hunter try his luck first. If she really needed to, though, Ayane would attempt to get answers out from the man.
gpt
Sven looked at the man and focused his attention on him, as he caught his breath, "who do you work for, want were you doing here," he said calmly as he looked at the man before waiting for an answer that didn't come at all. Sven punched the man in the gut causing him to hit the wall at the same time, he looked at him after doing so again and got nothing at all again. This wasn't going to be easy, Sven looked at him as he grabbed his fingers and went to break them but stopped, the only the that the man would tell him was the name of the person who he was after Ayane, and that his boss would kill him if he talked, and that nothing he could do would be worth it, cause his boss could get him anywhere at any time.
Sven let out a sigh as he looked over at Ayane, he knew she had to be a mess to have someone come at you, like that, but she showed strength as far as he could tell. Was it a front on her behalf, he wasn't sure, he hoped that he could help give her move confidence, but his lack of information didn't help and he hoped the information that was given wasn't the type that would worry her any more than any of the info, than he wasn't sure though he wasn't her and had no idea how she would react to the information.
Sven stood up and looked at Ayane, "you said you were a future boss of a mafia right, you have to have some dark secret ways to get information out of people right, you know the really scary stuff that causes normal people to wet their pants," he asked hoping that she had. He had to admit till he meet her he never meet a future mafia boss before, and he still knew very little about what she was and wasn't capable of. He hoped that she would take a shot and be able with that shot to figure out far more than his attempt had.
human
Ayane Yatsumi
At first, everything had been indeed a mere strongfront. But the more Ayane watched Sven, the quicker she understood everything. She wasn't at all fond of having to consider switching places. But it would need to be done. By the time Sven approached and confirmed this, there was far more anger than fear swelling through her. Yet, it didn't show. Not quite yet. Pulling her pistol out, she began to hum softly while opening the barrel. She withdrew all but two of the bullets, sliding the other four away into her pocket.
"So ... " She finally mused, looking up into the man as she spun the chamber. "I'm sure you know how Russian Roulette goes, don't you? Wanna give it a try? And to make this somewhat more fair ... I'll play also. You saw ... only two bullets. How lucky do you think you're gonna be, hm?"
Despite probably looking less-than-sane, Ayane still had plenty of logic and sanity. And it showed as she placed the barrel against her left shoulder as opposed to the side of the head. She was taking quite a bit into account, including the possibility it could hit. As Ayane pulled back on the trigger, nothing happened. A smirk crossed her face as she knelt in front of the man. Pressing her left fingers in between his thumb and forefinger, she pressed his hand open and placed the barrel in the dead center of his palm.
"If you haven't noticed yet, I'm not aiming to kill. Just severely incapacitate. And if your boss doesn't get to you, your pride will definitely be your demise. Now ... you gonna speak and answer all he asked of you? Or should I just pull back on the trigger now, hm? You've got five seconds. Five ... four .... "
gpt
The man looked at the woman as she took the gun out, she was loco, she was truly crazy. The man blinked wondering why she would even take the chance of shooting herself, he blinked as he knew that she would kill him just like anyone else would. He blinked as he worried something was wrong with her. He felt the gun against his hand and knew that if she shot that he wouldn't be able to use again after that. He blinked as he looked at the woman blinking for a moment and hearing the five and the four count out loud, even the three.
"Fine, don't fire, he wanted be to kidnap you and bring you to him," he said as he looked at the crazy woman. Nothing could show him that she wasn't crazier than his boss. Maybe that was why he wanted her, they were two peas in a pod. He blinked as he looked at the woman, "you have a high price on your head, someone wants you in the worst of ways, you must of tempted the wrong people," he said looking at her hoping that would be enough to steady her from shooting him. "Kill all those in the way, take you and I could name my price, I am just a two bit hood, no reason to shoot me," he said looking at the woman.
Sven looked at Ayane, she was a mob boss, he head heard of these things on tv but never before now had ever seen someone try a stunt like this in his life. He paused as he looked at her, wondering what was going though her mind, and wondering if she happened to be a bit crazy too. He waited for her to finish with this man, however she was before he would take him in and hopefully collect their reward for the capture.

Ayane Yatsumi
Crazy wasn't the correct word to use, not in Ayane's mindset. If that were true, she wouldn't have bothered considering where to place the gun and just shot. But no. She had calculated and determined each exact location and action to go through with. Her eyes narrowed as she got half of a confession. It was a start, yes. Still, the man was keeping her somewhat in the dark. And the young woman was tired of people doing such things to her. Her head shook as she squeezed, ready to pull down on the trigger if needed.
"Define 'he'. Give me a name, appearance, something. You have given a good head start. But you should also know that's definitely not enough. Now ... out with the rest." Her voice stayed calm and yet had a very strict undertone to it. She wouldn't accept the answer 'no' so easily, certainly not without consequences. And this time, none would even try to hit her. It was still the man's turn to play. So, they'd see how lucky he truly was ... maybe wasn't ... if he didn't comply. "Five .... four .... "
The countdown had seemed to help out last time. So ... why not? Maybe it was just the gun. But something had worked and Ayane would use any and all advantages.
The true word to use ... was desperate, not crazy. That's what the poor mafia boss really was.
gpt
The man looked at the woman and blinked as he had hope that would be enough to handle the woman. He blinked surprised a bit that it had not but maybe she was just looking for a reason to shot him, perhaps she was one of those type who like to kill for fun, it would make sense why the bigman was wanting her so badly to offer the price he was. "Who he is, well um, well everyone knows who the big boss is, the one who really is in charge of this city," he said as he looked at her pausing for a moment
"His name is Luigi Martius, the leader of this cities truly," he said looking up at her, that information was rather common knowledge of course if anything happened, he would be the one behind it no matter if it was big or if it was small. He looked at her, "you know, you man dark hair kind of a cold expression, likes to be at his own gun shop," he said as he looked at the woman for a moment wondering if this would click at all with her and hoping that it was really enough to handle her and get away from the situation that he happened to be in at that moment. "As to the why, I have no clue, maybe he wants you, and finds you to his liking, maybe he wants to hire you who knows, that man's mind," he said as he looked at the woman for a moment waiting her reply.
The man wasn't sure who this woman was, but she wasn't from around there, where were these strangers coming from, it was strange, to find people who didn't fit in at all. He found this world changing pretty quickly, but he wasn't sure why it was changing, it just seemed to be a overnight type thing really.
human
Ayane Yatsumi
Her eyes narrowed in annoyance upon hearing those first words. Clearly, not everyone knew who his boss was. There wouldn't have been a point in her inquiring of the person otherwise, now would there? Thankfully, he explained further. The words 'gun shop' made her aim lower and hand tremble. Two and two clicked harshly together as everything dawned upon her. That same man who had examined her gun ... that wasn't just a worker. No, that was the person in charge of this entire city of corruption. "I see .... " She replied softly, pulling the spare bullets out and reloading the gun. However, she would allow for her eyes to note the next two chambers had been the ones with bullets ... meaning the assassin would have been wounded first then herself. Luck seemed to be watching her at that moment.
"... I'm done with him." She commented to Sven, placing her firearm back into it's holster. "Let's ... let's go." She added, her head bowing in anger and a bit of confusion. She hadn't actually stolen from this Luigi. So what had she done? Was it as simple as the man had said? She'd gotten his attention somehow?
The thoughts all made her nervously swallow. It was another thing that Ayane wanted to know and didn't at the same time. Holding her clothes over an arm, she waited for Sven to deal with the assassin. Right now, Ayane wanted to pay for everything and just leave. She felt pissed, disgusted, scared. The poor woman would give anything to be able to nod her head and vanish from this god-awful place. Never before had she been so homesick, so ready and wanting to be back in her own residence.
And yet, this place was making her desire for just that.
gpt
Sven took care of the man and made sure to hand him over and collected the small bounty for the man from the right people or what he figured at least as he then caught up with Ayane and Sven took the man to the area, he found out that he was a big time small fry. He wondered why such a small fry would be used, he blinked as he looked at the man smile at him. It took him a moment while he looked at the man to realize just what had happened, it was a set up. Sven blinked as he turned and ran as fast as he could towards the area that Ayane happened to be at. Yet, as he went he found the sidewalk blocked and had to go around, this was so annoying, he hoped that Ayane would be okay by herself.
"So, your the one worth the money, my partner got your attention well enough didn't he," a second man said as he knew that he would have some time before her friend came back. He smirked as he looked at the woman, "I can see why Luigi sees in you, your going to make a hell of a fucktoy," the man said coldly with a smirk. The man was taller stronger than the first, he looked like a thug and someone who would be sent after someone unlike the first one. "Well, why don't we give up, now, your not so strong or crazy are you," he said with a nasty smirk on his lips, "perhaps I can have some fun with you before the boss has his fun," he said not caring if people in the store saw, he was one of luigi's men they could do anything they wanted to in this town that they wanted.

Ayane Yatsumi
By the time Ayane finished paying for all her clothes, she turned to see Sven gone. Her eyes blinked as she did double and triple checks. This was a god-awful joke, right?! Had he temporarily lost his mind?! There were so many reasons she could list off the top of her head on why this was a horrible idea! A low "Urgh!" left as she did and moved away from the counter, carrying her bag in her hand. She got a few steps in before stopping as another man, whose words all but spelled it out, worked for Luigi also.
Her fists clenched angrily as she stepped back. By now, Ayane's body was shaking in anger. But she wasn't just going to lay down and take this. Nu-uh.
"Fuck off!" She hissed, not even bothering to second guess her words. "Strong? Not likely, let alone compared to unknown assailants.Desperateis the correct word ... and actually when push comes to shove, yeah, I am."
But would using the only six bullets she had be wise? Not yet.
Her arm with the bag moved, as if going behind her back, before bringing it back in front of her and swinging it towards the man. Truthfully, it wasn't meant to wound or damage. That was but a distraction, aimed to make him back away or something of the like. And once he did, Ayane turned and ran, heading again for the doors to exit the mall.
The hell with being subtle. It wasn't really being ... allowed or even encouraged at the moment. Besides, she had far more things to think about than sticking out so easily in this world, especially now that she was running from the owner of this city.
gpt
The man looked at her as he was prepared to handle her, he just had to think of what to do. He saw the bag, and jumped back, it was only a natural thing to do, to avoid the bag to get out of the way, and to counter what was happening. He was surprised when the girl ran, but he should of been so. He should or realized that was the most logical move on her behalf.
Of course the man chased her, fast, but was really fast too. He figured she was perhaps faster then him by a good bit, meaning he had to think of something to do to perhaps slow her down and disable that speed. He had one shot, he slide at her left foot, if he hit her left food with his own, he would hopefully trip her and cause her to fall on her face. If he missed or she dodged him, he wouldn't be able to catch her then, and he would have to wait till another time to go after her. He still figured it was worth the chance cause otherwise, he wouldn't be able to keep up with her speed and she would get away anyhow.
