"Oh hell...." Cid slapped his forehead as he halted his attempts at raticide to see the challenge between Jyuuki and his first customer. Damn, he could feel that vein resurface again. "Shin, get the damn 'Fainting Pillow' and put it under Mr. Soldier over here!!" He yelled to his other employee. "Oh and hand me my spear, I gots me a rat to kill!!!"

Inwardly Jyuuki grinned at this.

The 'Fainting Pillow.'

Or as she'd like to call it (but couldn't cause Cid was a stubborn old fart), 'The Loser's Shameful Seppuku.'

'Ahhh, that thing holds so many memories.' Jyuuki thought as memories flashed momentarily in her mind. All of tense bar scenes where hefty, burly men would be reduced to downright pansy-boys as they faced the sometimes barely buzzed or downright drunk as hell (but never passed out) bartender.

Her eyes momentarily flashed and she was back in the present, eying the now armor-plate less, clad in only a nice fitting black shirt, smirk and ruggedness apparent on his features. She wasn't worried, some of the men (and women, she had to give credit where it was due) she'd faced looked worse in that category on the gruff-ranks.

With a sly smile, her bare feet carefully brushed across the floor and made their way towards Jyuuki. With ease, even unknowning to her, the nineteen year old leaned towards the ninja, glancing over to that challenging customer for a moment. "Show him what you're made of, my friend~"

Jyuuki loved her.

Really, the bartender couldn't have asked for a better frenemy considering their ups and downs.

Because of her co-worker/enemy/friend, work was always abit more fun and a bit more strenuous. At this point, the fiery teen could really admit that this current job was the best job so far.

The auburn-locked teen sent her a small wink before looking back at her opponent, knowing that the meaning would be lost in translation to everyone else, but to her? The taller-teen understood it was basically a condensed version of 'Oh you know it.'

Before he poured a small shot of Vodka he said to her with a grin "First things first. Name's Dragomir Vlackovsky. Call me Draco. And I'm not as old as you think." He grinned while light spinnig the small glass of vodka. "Maybe a whole cache of Stolichnaya Vodka paid by the loser. The winner takes the cache." He said with a slighly confident grin, nobody took Draco down yet, ever.

"Thanks, but no thanks mate." He said with a smile that said "I-won't-lose-this"
He drank that shot. It'll take while for Draco to fal down drunk. He's from the eastern parts of the world, vodka was water and water was vodka in therms of scasity and usefullness. Thne he poured another shot of it. "So what brought you to this bar eh, Skittles?" He asked drinking it. It wasn't half good as the one he drank back in South Pole, perfectly chilled 41% vodka with a shot of lemon grass.

Jyuuki took one of her own shots as he spoke and drank himself, eyeing him amused. So this guy was really one of those guys; his tone hadn't shaken nor did he seem like his wager was a bluff to hide his nervousness. Also, he was really confidant when replying to the old man.

Not needing the Loser's Shameful Seppuku?

Well well well.

'Hmm, this Draco guy has no shame huh? Interesting to say the least.' She thought as she felt the bitter liquid slide down her throat and warm her insides, 'Dunno if he was already drunk before this thing started, if he's just stupid and has a war-injury to his head, or if he's just...'

She saw him take his second shot.

'...really good.' The former ninja grinned slightly, as she eyed him set his glass down. In this challenge, she really hoped it was the latter of her thoughts. Hell, she welcomed this sort of stuff, no skin off her nose, but there really was no doubt in her mind she preferred an exciting drinking duel over a boring easy-win challenge.

"Draco, huh? Well, nice to meetcha. The chick that's gonna hand your drunk-face to you is named Jyuuki." The hazel-eyed bartender snarkily replied as she tipped her bottle and pour herself a second shot. Jyuuki twirled the clear liquid in it's glass before downing it easily, placing it down and filling her third shot, catching her opponent's gaze again, "But I guess that doesn't matter, seems you're pretty adamant bout callin' me nothing else but 'Skittles' for some reason I'd rather not know. And the wager? What would I want with more booze? I live and work in a bar, Dracs, if you hadn't noticed. How 'bout we try again, mmkay?"

The former ninja finished her reply by taking her third shot. It really felt like she was drinking water of all things, lightly hinted with a tart taste. Like overly ripe green apples or something. Nonetheless, considering they were starting off slow, she couldn't even feel the affects. She wondered if she'd been doing this for too long?

...Nahhhh.

Oh well, she'd have to hurry up this portion of the challenge by suggesting they down the bottles half way through.

Jyuuki let out a small sigh as she placed the glass down on the bar and absentmindedly poured her fourth shot, all the while continuing her eye contact with his brown eyes and murmuring back, "And to me being at this bar? Well... let's just say I ended up here by the luck of the draw." She smoothly twirled her glass up infront of him smirking, before taking it and slamming it down on the bar, satisfied she was up four to two. She cocked her head to the side, somewhat coy (damn you booze), "Whatta bout you? What's your story, Mister War-hero?"

Seeing Shinha run down towards the cursed demon of squeaky famine and disease somewhat brought him out of his stupor. "Damn, I wanted to skewer something." Cid muttered, "At least one of my workers is working like she's suppose to!" He all but yelled towards the two competitors.

"Why that cheeky little bugger." Cid frowned, "This better not take all day." He took his spear, brandishing it, that if one may look through the window, will run in fear. Cid was irritated, there was a rat he wanted to skewer but can't, an employee who's drinking instead of working, business was slow.... And seriously, he wasn't that scary when he was this pissed off was he? Well, there was that one time when someone tried to grope one of his former waitresses, he scared the entire customers, the staff, and managed to halt business in one day. He let out a small chuckle, then there was that one time when 4 rats dared to touch his favorite chocolate milk in the fridge, it took a sedative and both Shinha's and Jyuuki's combined strength to calm him down. "Ah, good times...."

It was odd how therapeutic it was to hear the crashes as Shinha chased the demon rodent around in the basement. "I could always have Jyuu or Shin clean it up, I am after all their boss!" He chuckled some more, somewhat more sinister this time.

He saw the Skittles dry up another shot of vodka, he grinned 'That kid reminds me of my sis when she out drinked 3 guys and a nun.. Then he poured another shot, he dranks it slowly savoring the bitter yet delicious taste of well brewed Vodka. He slouched back as he slowly put back the cup, he moved his hand to pour another shot of the alcoholic beverage. He felt as some of the blood moved towards his cheeks making it reddish.

"I've lived in the Eastern Frontiers of the Earth. Cold place I say where people use everyexcise to be drunk. When I grew up there were three possible occupations for a boy: Bear Wrestler, brewer and Mercenary. So I chose the latter one since it was the least mundane." He again slowly drank the liqiour now he felt slighly more happy-ish. Grinning he looked at the kid. "After 5-6 years of changing sides and fighting on both of them against both of them I've endded in a dead end mission with a brigade I hate." He said pouring another shot, it felt different, this time he wasn't drinking for his life. "And here I am in a drinking contest with you. Funny how things turn out" He said slightly similing. He poured another one. 5-4 for Him. He liked to take things slowly.

"Life has been such a turmoil, can't stop nad stay anywhere for a longer tie, always a new place to invade a new check point to attack another super fortress under siege. Eh, This is tireing ya know" He said breathing out a long breath. Then he drank the 5th shot. Dragomirfelt a little less tense more relaxed at his life.

She was sorta feelin' it now.

The affects of the Vodka was simply tantalizing her senses as she had just finished her 4th shot. The young bartender leaned against the bar, twirling her 5th shot in her hand as soon as she'd thrown the question out there for her drinking companion for the afternoon (and maybe deep into the evening) awaiting her answer.

The only difference is the effects of the vodka was easily loosening her up.

Jyuuki listened intently as he spoke. So he had fallen into that triple-decision stand-off and chosen something that didn't exactly promise a secure future, but easily beat out the others in uniqueness and dangerous. She could respect that. The former ninja hadn't lied on her resume; she had actually taken up her former profession. It wasn't hard; she'd left her home, she'd had the skills.

It wasn't sky-rocket science to put two and two together and get the teen a job for 5 years that instilled her with techniques and a sense of speed and power that she used for different senarios in the present.

"So you ended up being a Mercenary huh? Not bad at all, in my opinion." Jyuuki replied sincerely interested. Her cheeks felt slightly warmer than usual as she took her 5th shot. It was true, mercenaries always intrigued her. They'd hadn't that many different kinds of people visit the bar, but the teen had had her share of conversations with different kinds of people. She yearned for that actually, but that boiling want that manifested deep within her each time they'd tell her amazing stories of their adventures would be forced down and out. That flame to just, drop everything, to just leave with one of the dragoons, or rebels, or mercenaries, actual ninjas, or whatever (all shapes and sizes) would always spark in her eyes as they traced their armor and weaponary.

She couldn't help it, a girl like her would always have that want to just leave like she did her home.

A heavy sigh released from her red lips as she placed down her cut and leaned back slightly, shaking her head as the tell-tale fuzziness of the alcohol take effect. A lazy grin reached her lips as she leaned against the bar, her eyes taking him in as he took his stared into his glass-- the memories no doubt swimming in his mind's eye.

'Tough dude really, he's into that whole lone-ranger thing. Good for him-- must be awesome' Even though she'd figure it would be good, Jyuuki couldn't help but pity him. His relationships with people would be tough to keep, tough to make in his industry of business. No doubt that would be conflicting for a person, even if they'd been beaten into routine. Nevertheless, she still listened with a somewhat fuzzy perception and couldn't help but to giggle slightly at his quip. It was funny where everyone ended up wasn't it? Here he was having an empty drinking-wager with a 19-year old bartender, who had an eye for escape but would always squash that by declaring she was happy.

Things happened for a reason, funny or not, everyone ended up where they needed to be-- no matter what the reason, as long as it was for a reason.

Eh, This is tireing ya know" He said breathing out a long breath. Then he drank the 5th shot. Dragomirfelt a little less tense more relaxed at his life.

Keeping eye-contact with him, she noticed he'd set his cup down, after his 5th take, and relaxed considerably. Taking this as a good sign, Jyuuki took grasped his cup and set it aside next to her own before leaning back against the bar on one elbow. "Then why do ya--" Jyuuki stopped, pushing out bottom lip in mid-thought, "--why do ya ...do it then? Do you enjoy takin' all those different' jobs for a living? I mean-- I did it, but I sorta miss it now-- so...so I'd get your point if you said 'it was your life' or whatever."

And well, since she was now warmed up with the booze, she'd figure she'd at least be polite and share herself.

"The reason why-why I'm here is because I'm not at home anymore. I ran away when I was barely fourteen, takin up life as a ninja-- odd jobs here and there, maybe a mercenary but not really. I'd say I was, just to get more jobs, but-- but really I never saw myself as one." The booze was taking an affect on her speech. Both Cid, Shihna, her customers (that had seen her like this), and herself knew that she tended to have random, sporadic hiccups whenever she and her friend, alcohol, met eye to eye (aka on more friendly terms). "Naw... naw, not a merc-- I'm a wuss when it comes to-- to killin' the hits." Her thoughts swam. Jyuuki leaned her head back and gazed lazily Draco, before continuing. "Then the-- the inevitable happened. My boss found that little sparkly fact out--I got fired--he spread the word--employers stopped calling. Guess the 'killing' part was really-- really important yanno?"

She pushed his Vodka bottle towards him before taking her own, "Anyway, that's how I ended up here. I just quit with the-- those jobs and took on more practical jobs. Haven't gotten a mark since then... Good thing too, if Cid found out, he'd probably kick my ass. So hush-hush, kay?" Jyuuki then hopped on the bar, sitting herself infront of him with her legs hanging over on where she was standing prior to the change in position.

"Oh and why don't we finish up with these?" She replied as she took lifted the bottle infront of him slightly, "No offense, but-- but heh, I'd like to move on to something harder if ya don't mind. I haven't-- haven't forgotten our little bet, and since you, D-Drac's can't decide, I say that this sexy beast should yeah?" The teen shoved his bottle towards him before lifting her own to her lips and sipping some before continuing with a sly smile, "If you win, name your terms-- anything goes. Really, seriously dude, anything. And lastly, if I win, you.... (heheh) you gotta ask Shihna, that one chick with the braid from before? Yeah, her. You haveta ask out onna date. And you (tehehehe) ...you can't stop until she accepts." The Anti-Christ reborn teen finished by taking a long swig of her bottle, leaning back some with the balance shift and letting out a sigh as she returned back up for air. She looked down at him with a lazy smirk.

"So whattya say?"

(OOC: It's just he's speaking in a STRAIGHT FIRST PERSON. 1st person is fine, but seriously, he needs to have some depth to his post. To move along his own storyline. I'm not asking for a novel or anything, but really? He doesn't haveta tell us he "blinked" or "lifted his hand" -- Fallen, you can do WAY more. Just have your character ready with a BACKGROUND and VISUAL (halp us out, seriously) before ya post again.

And it's not your fault. It's just with highly interactive RP's, there's way more substance than actions. We need story-telling. It makes it fun for everyone if we all take our equal turns telling a story. Yanno? Bring your character to life. Interact with the other characters.

This is the only thing that I kind of disagree with. To me an RPG is just something that you do in your own way, as long as you're having fun with it. There are so many ways to RP, like dialogue-based only, full story mode, a combination of both. So, I didn't really see any problems with how Fallen was rping, as not everyone can churn out those uber long posts like you and Kitsune can, krisk tongue.gif

But that's just my two cents, as when I was reading this thread to catch up on all that was happening with the storyline, I saw all of those posts dealing with that rping issue happy.gif

I quickly docked my little escape pod ship by the side of Cid's Bar, and half stumbled/ran the few feet separating me from the docking area to the entrance of the bar, sparing a quick glance over my shoulder, and as I had feared I saw the 3 goons in airship pods of their own, closing in on me and the floating bar.

I let out a quick panicked breath, before I hurriedly pushed my way in through the bar's entrance, and came to an abrupt stop as I saw a slightly buzzed looking girl, maybe a couple of years older than me, a young man looking equally buzzed, and a grizzled old man all look up at my sudden entrance.

I took in a shaky breath and quickly released it, as I felt my tension rise, as I could practically feel those 3 goons getting closer.

"Please...help me..." I beseeched the strangers before me, as just as I had expected and feared, the 3 thugs burst in through the bar's entrance right behind me, and one of them made a grab for my neck.

Cid, with one swift beautiful move, threw his spear right towards one of the thugs, impaling him in the right shoulder. Then all but screamed, "HOLD IT!!!!!!!!!!!" that reverberated throughout the whole, but largely empty bar. He glared at the three thugs, "What in the f***in' hell are you doing??"

Jyuuki looked down lazily at my drinking challenger across from her as she sat on the bar, awaiting her expected acceptance (really. How can you not want to put yourself in an awkward position of asking a stranger out? FUN STUFF!) from Draco. Although, for some reason, the hairs on the back of the young teen's neck seems to quiver just slightly.

'Sh!t...' The former ninja's awareness was going crazy for some reason, as it had been trained by her old job style. 'Something's gonna--'

Her thoughts stopped abruptly as her suspicions were answered by a young, probably a few years younger than herself, Elvaan girl burst into the bar and was looking wildly around, somewhat distressed.

Jyuuki quirked an eyebrow. Cid's place sometimes got these crazies once in awhile, it wasn't something new-- just treat them calmly as possible and don't go to them-- they'd come to you. With that in mind, the young teen relaxed her hold on the Vodka bottle.

Scratch the relaxing part.

As soon as the girl had uttered those words and three hefty looking thugs had busted in right after her, Jyuuki knew something was terribly wrong-- even in her slightly alcohol-induced state.

Nothing like a change-of-events like this to get her blood-boiling.

With adrenaline pumping, Jyuuki acted on reflex as she jumped off the bar and onto her feet, already sprinting towards the crisis. The former ninja lifted her arm, which tightly grasped the glass bottle by the neck, and flipped it around so the bottom was up and aimed out. Her hazel eyes zero-ed in on the head of the thug that was currently a breath's distance from grasping the elvaan girl's neck and with a clear shot, Jyuuki twisted once around and notched back her arm, letting the bottle fly. The liquid ice flew faster and harder, with the help of the momentum of her twist and smashed into the thug's rugged face, sending him back and away far enough for the girl to distance herself safely.

Jyuuki smirked as she heard the sweet sound of deserved pain, but wasted no time calling for reinforcements as she noted that she seriously couldn't take on three (one with probably a bleeding face and huge headache) huge thugs by herself. "HEY CID! SHIHN! WE'VE GOT OURSELVES A PARTY OUT HERE!" The yelled words left her lips as soon as she came up to one of the upright thugs, already swinging a punch in and with a small grunt, Jyuuki side-stepped the punch, grabbed his arm, and pulled him down (with the help of his pushed force from the punch) with her as she fell below. No doubt it would hurt, the teen nonetheless finished the move and lifted her foot against the beefy guy's stomach, and while gritting her teeth, she pressed down into a kick and lifted the goon backwards, flying into a table.

"Sh!t. Owwww ow ow ow ow!" Jyuuki panted/muttered out as she lifted herself up and off the ground, holding her more than likely bruised back. Momentarily forgetting about the other two, the teen spat out at the goon groaning off the broken table, shaking her fist. "Why do all of you have to be so goddamn FAT! Jesus! I swear--OOF!" A punch interrupted her tirade and she went flying from the force, landing into a chair with a groan of promised pain. The hefty man laughed heartedly, happy he'd gotten in his sucker-punch for the evening.

What he didn't know was that Jyuuki was used to this, as she'd been in many bar-fights in her time working there, not to mention the fact of her past profession. That fact was evident on his fact as the former ninja lifted herself up from the ground, cocked her head which elicted a crunch from her neck, and looked straight up into his face, after spitting out a wad of blood.

And grinned.

"You're gonna wish you hadn't done that..." As soon as the uttered threat left her lips, Jyuuki sprinted herself towards the guy, revenge on mind. The thug reacted quickly after being struck speechless at the young girl's excitement for a fight, lifting up his dukes and meeting Jyuuki's fists in an all-out fist-fight.

"HEY--" Jyuuki looked up after dodging a punch and looked back momentarily to send a jab of her own. The teen looked over at the angry man again, mid-fist fight, "Oh! Hey ya old fart! --" A dodge. A punch. A growl. "Stop yelling at them and help, old man!--" A hit taken. A hit given. A groan, another growl. "Where's Shihn! Tell her to get the girl away from these idiots and--" Jyuuki jumped back from a hard hook, flipped down and used her legs to knock the guy off his feet-- "--get her to safety first! SHIHN HEAR THAT? Damnit where is she?!"

Jyuuki noted that one of the thugs was out completely, what with the huge spear sticking out his shoulder as his howls of pain reverberated through the bar, which was choosingly empty all of a sudden. 'Wait...' Jyuuki breathed, adrenaline causing her to shake abit, as she tried to find the guy she threw the bottle at, the one that went for the girl's neck.

The liquid ice flew faster and harder, with the help of the momentum of her twist and smashed into the thug's rugged face, sending him back and away far enough for the girl to distance herself safely.

Jyuuki smirked as she heard the sweet sound of deserved pain, but wasted no time calling for reinforcements as she noted that she seriously couldn't take on three (one with probably a bleeding face and huge headache) huge thugs by herself. "HEY CID! SHIHN! WE'VE GOT OURSELVES A PARTY OUT HERE!" The yelled words left her lips as soon as she came up to one of the upright thugs, already swinging a punch in and with a small grunt, Jyuuki side-stepped the punch, grabbed his arm, and pulled him down (with the help of his pushed force from the punch) with her as she fell below. No doubt it would hurt, the teen nonetheless finished the move and lifted her foot against the beefy guy's stomach, and while gritting her teeth, she pressed down into a kick and lifted the goon backwards, flying into a table.

"Sh!t. Owwww ow ow ow ow!" Jyuuki panted/muttered out as she lifted herself up and off the ground, holding her more than likely bruised back. Momentarily forgetting about the other two, the teen spat out at the goon groaning off the broken table, shaking her fist. "Why do all of you have to be so goddamn FAT! Jesus! I swear--OOF!" A punch interrupted her tirade and she went flying from the force, landing into a chair with a groan of promised pain. The hefty man laughed heartedly, happy he'd gotten in his sucker-punch for the evening.

What he didn't know was that Jyuuki was used to this, as she'd been in many bar-fights in her time working there, not to mention the fact of her past profession. That fact was evident on his fact as the former ninja lifted herself up from the ground, cocked her head which elicted a crunch from her neck, and looked straight up into his face, after spitting out a wad of blood.

And grinned.

"You're gonna wish you hadn't done that..." As soon as the uttered threat left her lips, Jyuuki sprinted herself towards the guy, revenge on mind. The thug reacted quickly after being struck speechless at the young girl's excitement for a fight, lifting up his dukes and meeting Jyuuki's fists in an all-out fist-fight.


"HEY--" Jyuuki looked up after dodging a punch and looked back momentarily to send a jab of her own. The teen looked over at the angry man again, mid-fist fight, "Oh! Hey ya old fart! --" A dodge. A punch. A growl. "Stop yelling at them and help, old man!--" A hit taken. A hit given. A groan, another growl. "Where's Shihn! Tell her to get the girl away from these idiots and--" Jyuuki jumped back from a hard hook, flipped down and used her legs to knock the guy off his feet-- "--get her to safety first! SHIHN HEAR THAT? Damnit where is she?!"

Jyuuki noted that one of the thugs was out completely, what with the huge spear sticking out his shoulder as his howls of pain reverberated through the bar, which was choosingly empty all of a sudden. 'Wait...' Jyuuki breathed, adrenaline causing her to shake abit, as she tried to find the guy she threw the bottle at, the one that went for the girl's neck.




(OOC - OMFG BAR-FIGHT. 8D and...


The same vein popped again, "So much for peaceful resolutions, this day has gone sooo...what does my genius old friend used to say? Troublesome. Oh well, nothin' like a good ol' fashion brawl to keep the day goin'" With agility that surpassed his age, he ran towards the thug he had speared and pulled his spear out of the man's shoulder. He jumped back and kicked the man right at his chest. "You know what kid?" He asked Jyu, "forget the birthday parties, wait for Shin and take care of these....gentlemen. That'll be your punishment. I'll take care of this young lady here, k?" He stood in front of the young Elvaan with the spear outstretched, ends pointing side to side. He smirked, "I really don't feel like fighting, because then I'd have to pay for the broken glasses! I'll just protect the little lady." He couldn't help it, the Elvaan looked so cute! Damn softie....

Shihna was determined.

There was a little rodent scurring around these dark parts, and it especially got her in the mood; especially since there hasn't been much action in the past few what? Years? Tthe grip of her arm length dagger clentched between teeth, the thief was on the prowl. Unaware of the 'contest' which was taking place above her at this very moment - and the three idiots that were planning to ruin such. Swallowed within the darkness of the basement, Shihna stood on hine legs, as still as she could be. Like a statue, the girl awaited the return of her 'new' friend, they hadn't been aquainted like she wished for. Wasn't that a shame? "Come out, come out, wherever you areee~ Shihn isn't going to hurt you, I promise~" And there she goes again with the sweetened tone; it was what usually had the foolish ones running after her, only to be greeted with a wolf in woman's clothing.

Literally.

Ears perked upon hearing that dreaded squeak. That bell adorned her neck today, which caused a jingle to echo throughout the silence of the room... this was the perfect time to strike. Noticing that shadow make it's way past her right foot, Shihna unleashed a yell similar to that of a banshee. Anyone in the upper deck would, of course, hear this... maybe even stop to look around and wonder. However, she was certain Cid and Jyuuki were used to her attitude when it came to a hunt. Especially when that certain hunt revovled around treasure, but this was a completely different story. This was still a showdown to the death.

And Shihna wasn't going back upstairs until she had that rat in her grasp.

"YOU'RE MINE!!!!!" Shihna sprung from her croutched position and began to desend in the air in almost a heavenly way. Hands reaching out, she felt her fingers brush against the skin -or whatever it was- of the rat before taking full hold onto it. The dagger, which was once lodged in her mouth, was now in her hand's possesion... awaiting the final strike. Things seem to be getting a little better as the time went by. Maybe she would get paid extra for this~! Ah, a girl could dream couldn't she?

Although, oddly dilated (and different colored) eyes gazed at the creature in her arms. It was nothing more than a mere mouse which made her heart flutter, in some peculiar way. Shihna couldn't comprehend it, but she always felt sorry for the little things in this crazy world... and baby animals were included onto this list. You could say she sometimes had that motherly feel which surrounded her well being every now and then. Even though she was only nineteen, who was still in her youthful years, Shihna could not help but wonder how it would be to be a mother.

As of now, this little serene moment between her and a mouse was to be kept secret. Something in which would only happen once in this lifetime of hers and NEVER again. "Don't worry, little guy. I really do promise that I won't hurt ya~"

No doubt it would hurt, the teen nonetheless finished the move and lifted her foot against the beefy guy's stomach, and while gritting her teeth, she pressed down into a kick and lifted the goon backwards, flying into a table.


Eyes widening yet again, Shihna finally began to notice the sudden commotion from upstairs. Well this was a surprise. She leaves downstairs to the basement for a few minutes and Jyuuki and Cid get to have all the fun? That didn't seem so fair, now did it?

Once a small smile, a crooked grin began to form quickly. Still cradling the mouse in her left, she placed the little guy onto her shoulder before positioning her dagger in the right place. This left hand of hers, has done more than just raided airships and empires for treasure. Hah, if you'd think stealing was the only thing Shihna was good at, you must be mistaken my friend. She had seen some devastating things during her time as a thief, and nothing was getting better as this damn war continued on, which is why she'd never actually bothered to join either side. Neutral was the best way to go at times like this, and she'd be damned if she didn't stick to that!

Making her way up the stairwell, it seemed that she hadn't taken notice of the hole forming at the base of the wooden steps. That wasn't of any importance as of now... whatever was going on up here was clearly the 'news of the day'.

"...Typical Jyuu. Having all of the fun while I slave my sorry ass off... really nice to know, love" she cackled softly, taking aim and releasing the dagger all the way to the basement's entrance. Hearing the correct target and no screams of agony, Shihna took a leap forward before attempting a backhand to the top of the stairs. The sores on her feet were finally beginning to get to her, but that really didn't matter.

Now what the hell was going on?

The thug reacted quickly after being struck speechless at the young girl's excitement for a fight, lifting up his dukes and meeting Jyuuki's fists in an all-out fist-fight.

"HEY--" Jyuuki looked up after dodging a punch and looked back momentarily to send a jab of her own. The teen looked over at the angry man again, mid-fist fight, "Oh! Hey ya old fart! --" A dodge. A punch. A growl. "Stop yelling at them and help, old man!--" A hit taken. A hit given. A groan, another growl. "Where's Shihn! Tell her to get the girl away from these idiots and--" Jyuuki jumped back from a hard hook, flipped down and used her legs to knock the guy off his feet-- "--get her to safety first! SHIHN HEAR THAT? Damnit where is she?!"



This was truly a site to see.

Besides the hilarity hidden with, there was clearly something to be done. From her conclusions, it seemed that Jyuuki had already taken out one of them, there was another acting overly dramatic about a stab wound; seriously, he looked like a child who lost a teddy bear... and then there was that other. She didn't know why but that certain man didn't click with her. Just seeing him reach out for that girl's neck boiled her both inside and out, and her fully loosened hair caused her appearance to equal that of a madwoman. Thoughts were seeping back into her conscious, thoughts that were never to be spoken of again. The past was something that was meant to be forgotten and yet look at her. Reminiscing at THIS moment wasn't the best of things! Really, what was going on with her?

Breath ragged, Shihna said nothing (she held in yet another banshee scream) while charging towards him in rage. She was blinded by anger, fear and pain... unaware that Mr. Bleeding Shoulder was on her tail. Her knowing surroundings didn't seem to make much sense anymore due to the fact that her attention was drawn to only one thing. Her well-being was not processing correctly, all the acrobatic motions she had remembered were gone... and with that almost every thing else. Overhearing the desperate squeaks that paraded her ears thanks to her little companion, her black hair whipped around quickly as her blade left it's mark upon his arm. That scream he unleashed placed a smile on her face - but not a 'Shihna smile'. It was something that even frightened her.

She needed to calm down.

"...You picked the wrong day to mess with this airship, you know." Finally speaking, she spoke somewhat dark before running her fingers through darkened tresses. Anymore of this madness and Shihna was certain she would overflow... worse than usual. But that was were she made her mistake. Feeling a moist arm taking hold of her smaller frame, she felt herself being lifted. Only to be greeted with this jerk's eyes, Shihna was prepared to spit in his face before he performed an action that literally changed today's perspective. Being raised higher into the air, he made her feel like a rag doll before whispering something in her ear and flicking away the mouse from her shoulder. Oh, this bastard would pay. Although all thoughts were lost when he suddenly tossed her across the room and watched with smug as she 'flew'. Rather than the floor target, her already bruised back impacted against the main entrance doors, Shihna could feel herself being thrown out but not clearly off of the ship.

Okay, she was mistakened.

This might be a bit more difficult than she had hoped.

The air was pushed out of her lungs during her little flight, which left her breathless and crumpled onto the floor until then. Wherever that dagger was at the moment, she prayed that Bleeding Shoulder hadn't placed his grubby fingers on it.

Arms, her only support at the moment, had only the upper half of her body regaining realization of what had just happened - this wasn't anything usual, because she was damn-well sure that this state would not be the one a bar fight would place her in. Something was different of course... but what. It had her wondering for the time being before yet another noise snapped her from thoughts.

He was coming after her.

While he knew his two girls (since when did he thought that?) was fully capable of taking out three thugs, he couldn't help but worry about the guy that started after Shinha. He cracked his neck, "One bruise, that's all it takes, one bruise on her and you'll get skewered like a F***ing pig on a roast" He took a step, almost in time with the anonymous thug that dare lay a hand on his waitress. "You need help kiddo?" Cid called out to Shinha in a confident, but laced with worry, voice.

Punishment?

Jyuuki grinned as she stood infront of the groaning thug on the floor, rubbing her lip of the blood from the previous sucker-punch before placing her gloved hands on her hips. "Are ya kiddin me? This is totally a privledge. Kinda like, my own--" Jyuuki stopped mid-sentence, noticing her previous fist-fight buddy groaning and about to get up. Smirking, she walked over to his face and finished her sentence as she lifted back her foot and shot it forward into the thug's faced hard effectively knocking him (and a tooth here and there) out, happily growling, "--Christmas morning!"

The former ninja stepped onto her beaten opponent's body as she made her way over to Cid and the Elvaan girl. Her hazel-eyes skimmed over the young girl and noticed various bruises, not to mention the fact that she was heaving with a sort of panicked exhaustion. And there was the old man. Squeeing.

Jyuuki groaned and spit aside some more collected blood. "Okay sure protect her, Mister Hero, but can you at least look at her? Old man. She's needs help as she is!" Jyuuki pointed at the girl and Cid followed her gaze, "Check out those bruises and cuts, not to mention she's about to pass out. Just--Just take her to my room. Get her cleaned up and let're borrow some of my threads." The adrenaline was passing and Jyuuki could feel the alcohol brush her senses ever-so slowly, so her speech was starting to slur slightly.

Jyuuki stopped mid-step.

'Wait.. weren't there *three* of 'em...?' Her hazel eyes widened as she caught the scene before her. The thug that Jyuuki had pummled with the Vodka bottle was holding Shihna's form against him, shards and blood all over his mangled face. Oh that bastard. What was with all these dirty fighters? The young teen found herself boiling from the inside as she witnessed the thug whisper nastily in her ear. If Shihna wasn't gonna spit in his face, you couldn't deny the fact that she'd do it for her.

'Goddamn it!' Jyuuki thoughts cursed the thug that was currently making his way outside, probably going to finish the job. Without wasting another though, she pumped her legs and ran towards the exit after them both.

"You need help kiddo?" Cid called out to Shinha in a confident, but laced with worry, voice.

Jyuuki turned her head and barked sweetly at him, stilling jogging past, "Oh no, grandpa -- he's mine." No joke, he was. No one messed with her friends without at least speaking to the bartender first. She nodded over to the elvaan girl before contuing, "Go 'head and take the chick to my room, I think these thugs will go after her any chance they get." It was no doubt that these guys wanted her for a reason.

Gritting her teeth, Jyuuki charged through the entrance and skidded to a stop outside, as she saw Shihna was on the floor, shaking as she tried to get up. Then the hazel-eyed teen watched as the thug never noticed the new company and kept on stalking towards her friends' body.

How about.... no?

"HEY JACKASS!" The thug stopped in his tracks and turned gruffly around, glaring but then openingly looked interested... in that disgusting way. Looks like his male-parts were in control now.

"Ohhhh hello, baby. Ya wanted something? Some of... this?"

Jyuuki scowled, obviously grossed out at the offer, and scoffed crossing her arms. She was about to spit, visibly answering in her own way, but decided to play along. Why not humiliate him before helping her friend kick the crap out of him? "Actually... yeah I did." It was easier with the help of the booze, more likely. Jyuuki walked slowly over to him, hiding her clenched fists behind her back, "What didya have to offer?"

He had now completely dropped his guard. "Heh, I can think of a few things..." The thug replied as he met Jyuuki half way and stood over her, breathing heavily and obviously turned-on.

Ugh gross.

Jyuuki had to hide her disgust by biting the insides of her cheeks. She traced her nimble hands on his broad shoulders, amazed at how much he'd forgotten that she was the one who had chucked a freaking glass bottle at him. Maybe a concussion? Amnesia? Whatever it was, it was hilarious. Stealthily, the young bartender leaned against him and her eyes noticed Shihna getting up slowly, catching her breath and wincing as she felt the sores against her back. 'That's it, Shihn, get up... Get this ass back for what he did, I'll distract him long enough...'

With a sultry grin, Jyuuki lifted a hand and traced the jerk's muscles slowly, "Oh really? And these things wouldn't happen to involve..." She leaned closer, holding her breath as noted he hadn't showered for days most likely, and dirty rum was evident on his tongue, "...me would they?"

Man, did it take everything in her not to smack the sh!t out of this idiot.

Cid turned as the obviously pissed off ninja ran passed him, "Jyu, my girl, you have permission to shove this where it belongs." Cid stuck his spear to the floor, then offered a hand to the Elvaan girl, "M'lady, let this humble, old man escort you to a room." He flashed his kind, grandfatherly smile usually reserved to birthday parties for small children during Cid's Storytime!! (which by the way, he had to "thank" Jyuuki for, damn clown wig itched for ages....)

Cid looked back to Jyuu and promptly stifled a gag, he knew what the girl was doing and smirked. "They have this under control" he said to the Elvaan, "Your name, little lady?"

She was sorta feelin' it now.

The affects of the Vodka was simply tantalizing her senses as she had just finished her 4th shot. The young bartender leaned against the bar, twirling her 5th shot in her hand as soon as she'd thrown the question out there for her drinking companion for the afternoon (and maybe deep into the evening) awaiting her answer.

The only difference is the effects of the vodka was easily loosening her up.


Jyuuki listened intently as he spoke. So he had fallen into that triple-decision stand-off and chosen something that didn't exactly promise a secure future, but easily beat out the others in uniqueness and dangerous. She could respect that. The former ninja hadn't lied on her resume; she had actually taken up her former profession. It wasn't hard; she'd left her home, she'd had the skills.

It wasn't sky-rocket science to put two and two together and get the teen a job for 5 years that instilled her with techniques and a sense of speed and power that she used for different senarios in the present.

"So you ended up being a Mercenary huh? Not bad at all, in my opinion." Jyuuki replied sincerely interested. Her cheeks felt slightly warmer than usual as she took her 5th shot. It was true, mercenaries always intrigued her. They'd hadn't that many different kinds of people visit the bar, but the teen had had her share of conversations with different kinds of people. She yearned for that actually, but that boiling want that manifested deep within her each time they'd tell her amazing stories of their adventures would be forced down and out. That flame to just, drop everything, to just leave with one of the dragoons, or rebels, or mercenaries, actual ninjas, or whatever (all shapes and sizes) would always spark in her eyes as they traced their armor and weaponary.
Draco felt the kid also loosening up, the alcohol made miracles, it was the source and solution to all of world's problems. He could feel that she also wanted to have her share of adventure in her live. The same spark that made him a Merc.
QUOTE
She couldn't help it, a girl like her would always have that want to just leave like she did her home.

A heavy sigh released from her red lips as she placed down her cut and leaned back slightly, shaking her head as the tell-tale fuzziness of the alcohol take effect. A lazy grin reached her lips as she leaned against the bar, her eyes taking him in as he took his stared into his glass-- the memories no doubt swimming in his mind's eye.

'Tough dude really, he's into that whole lone-ranger thing. Good for him-- must be awesome' Even though she'd figure it would be good, Jyuuki couldn't help but pity him. His relationships with people would be tough to keep, tough to make in his industry of business. No doubt that would be conflicting for a person, even if they'd been beaten into routine. Nevertheless, she still listened with a somewhat fuzzy perception and couldn't help but to giggle slightly at his quip. It was funny where everyone ended up wasn't it? Here he was having an empty drinking-wager with a 19-year old bartender, who had an eye for escape but would always squash that by declaring she was happy.

Things happened for a reason, funny or not, everyone ended up where they needed to be-- no matter what the reason, as long as it was for a reason.


Keeping eye-contact with him, she noticed he'd set his cup down, after his 5th take, and relaxed considerably. Taking this as a good sign, Jyuuki took grasped his cup and set it aside next to her own before leaning back against the bar on one elbow. "Then why do ya--" Jyuuki stopped, pushing out bottom lip in mid-thought, "--why do ya ...do it then? Do you enjoy takin' all those different' jobs for a living? I mean-- I did it, but I sorta miss it now-- so...so I'd get your point if you said 'it was your life' or whatever."
Draco nodded, yeah she knew his life. Maybe she was a tid bit young but she had her share of life experiences in her mind. "Not really I often end up smothered in guts, blood and brains. I have more blood on my hands than there is water in the oceans matey. And I don't know how much more I've spilled indirectly."

QUOTE
And well, since she was now warmed up with the booze, she'd figure she'd at least be polite and share herself.

"The reason why-why I'm here is because I'm not at home anymore. I ran away when I was barely fourteen, takin up life as a ninja-- odd jobs here and there, maybe a mercenary but not really. I'd say I was, just to get more jobs, but-- but really I never saw myself as one." The booze was taking an affect on her speech. Both Cid, Shihna, her customers (that had seen her like this), and herself knew that she tended to have random, sporadic hiccups whenever she and her friend, alcohol, met eye to eye (aka on more friendly terms). "Naw... naw, not a merc-- I'm a wuss when it comes to-- to killin' the hits." Her thoughts swam. Jyuuki leaned her head back and gazed lazily Draco, before continuing. "Then the-- the inevitable happened. My boss found that little sparkly fact out--I got fired--he spread the word--employers stopped calling. Guess the 'killing' part was really-- really important yanno?"
"I think the killing part is important hehe. Maybe it is why they call mercs, Death Reapers for hire." He said slouch back more to the point his lower back was at the point where the backseat connected with the seat. He felt the booze hitting him harder.
QUOTE
She pushed his Vodka bottle towards him before taking her own, "Anyway, that's how I ended up here. I just quit with the-- those jobs and took on more practical jobs. Haven't gotten a mark since then... Good thing too, if Cid found out, he'd probably kick my ass. So hush-hush, kay?" Jyuuki then hopped on the bar, sitting herself infront of him with her legs hanging over on where she was standing prior to the change in position.
QUOTE
"Don't worry, your secret is safe with other people's secrets in my head. Hehehe, If I'm able to remember this conversation in a few days." He said luaghting. He took the Bottle and poured some more in his shot, yeah. That's how you get to know people, vodka. He sat up a little bit and started slowly swirling the liquor under his nose.

"Oh and why don't we finish up with these?" She replied as she took lifted the bottle infront of him slightly, "No offense, but-- but heh, I'd like to move on to something harder if ya don't mind. I haven't-- haven't forgotten our little bet, and since you, D-Drac's can't decide, I say that this sexy beast should yeah?" The teen shoved his bottle towards him before lifting her own to her lips and sipping some before continuing with a sly smile, "If you win, name your terms-- anything goes. Really, seriously dude, anything. And lastly, if I win, you.... (heheh) you gotta ask Shihna, that one chick with the braid from before? Yeah, her. You haveta ask out onna date. And you (tehehehe) ...you can't stop until she accepts." The Anti-Christ reborn teen finished by taking a long swig of her bottle, leaning back some with the balance shift and letting out a sigh as she returned back up for air. She looked down at him with a lazy smirk.

"So whattya say?"

"Sure thing I think it is a fair deal hehehe." He said semi-laughting, then he put his bottle up and said "For Father Winter!" and glouched some more.

QUOTE
"Please...help me..." I beseeched the strangers before me, as just as I had expected and feared, the 3 thugs burst in through the bar's entrance right behind me, and one of them made a grab for my neck.

Draco instnctily grabbed his APSh. But then fell down on his ass and his head from alcohol intoxication. THen the world went dim and lowly faded away in a dream. In a bar fight Dragomir Vlackovsky passed out for a minute.

How about.... no?

"HEY JACKASS!" The thug stopped in his tracks and turned gruffly around, glaring but then openingly looked interested... in that disgusting way. Looks like his male-parts were in control now.

"Ohhhh hello, baby. Ya wanted something? Some of... this?"

Jyuuki scowled, obviously grossed out at the offer, and scoffed crossing her arms. She was about to spit, visibly answering in her own way, but decided to play along. Why not humiliate him before helping her friend kick the crap out of him? "Actually... yeah I did." It was easier with the help of the booze, more likely. Jyuuki walked slowly over to him, hiding her clenched fists behind her back, "What didya have to offer?"

He had now completely dropped his guard. "Heh, I can think of a few things..." The thug replied as he met Jyuuki half way and stood over her, breathing heavily and obviously turned-on.

Ugh gross.



What... What's going on?

Shihna's fingers yet again raked themselves through dark tresses, nails gliding alongside her scalp, and felt her conscious slipping away here and there. Her sight was fuzzy... only the thunderous sound of voices fully awakened her from this dreaded state. Glancing upward, the sudden appearance of the man (who seemed overly excited to find her in such a predicament) startled her; Dragging his feet along the floor of the airship, the former thief could do nothing but await the judgement that the gods had decided for her. It seemed that today just wasn't her day, but just overhearing the loud yet comforting voice of Jyuuki formed a small smile.

Noticing that tone she used, and the actions that look place caused that infamous grin to grow. However, feeling her body give in yet another time - Shihna braced herself for the worse. As the metal taste of blood released through her supposedly closed mouth, the nineteen year old could only gap at her right hand. Palm covered in that darkening red, darkened eyes could only stare with disturbed awe at the man before her. Sure, his back was facing her... and sure, Jyuuki had him distracted with her Jyuukilicious Abilities as her frenemy called it... the bastard still made her bleed. That had to be a first, and so many months. Oh yes, there would be hell to pay. Even if she didn't have her lovely dagger in possession, Shihna was certain this trio of thugs would leave Cid's Bar in body bags.

Custom Designs by the waitresses, themselves~

Still. Everything that had taken place in just a few moments was getting to her. One minute, she's in the basement chasing a mouse and the next thing you know, she's being thrown out of HER workplace by an overweight idiot. And that statement he whispered in her ears... something along the line of him taking her along the way as a prize. Simply to say that he succeeded in getting both that Elvaan girl and basically destroying a neutral airship. Ah, wouldn't his 'boss' be happy with their accomplishment - yeeeaaaah, there was no way that was going to happen.

There was no way in hell Shihna was going to allow this man to get away with what he did to her, Jyuuki, Cid, that blonde, and the bar altogether!

Was there no place you could escape to?!

A place in which only peace surrounds you until you decide to make your way back into the warfare and death? She guessed not since this certain airship was her direct escape from the past.

But did that really matter right now?

No... not really. Payback was the only thing screaming in her scattered head at the moment.

Her bloodied palm stroked against her cheek, Shihna could do nothing but laugh at this situation. Sure, she was supposed to sneak up on the guy and do away with him, but she found nothing but humor at what was going to take place. Did this thug have any idea who he was dealing with? They may seem like the innocent waitress / bartender who will make sure you receive your order no later than two minutes - but, they were nothing but she-devils. And both of them took that as a compliment. Really~ "...Oh, it seems your mother never taught you any manners..." Her reply was soft and yet her speed was that of above average. Due to that last fall (and the one before), Shihna had found herself in an actual painful pinch as she attempted to run.


QUOTE
Jyuuki had to hide her disgust by biting the insides of her cheeks. She traced her nimble hands on his broad shoulders, amazed at how much he'd forgotten that she was the one who had chucked a freaking glass bottle at him. Maybe a concussion? Amnesia? Whatever it was, it was hilarious. Stealthily, the young bartender leaned against him and her eyes noticed Shihna getting up slowly, catching her breath and wincing as she felt the sores against her back. 'That's it, Shihn, get up... Get this ass back for what he did, I'll distract him long enough...'

With a sultry grin, Jyuuki lifted a hand and traced the jerk's muscles slowly, "Oh really? And these things wouldn't happen to involve..." She leaned closer, holding her breath as noted he hadn't showered for days most likely, and dirty rum was evident on his tongue, "...me would they?"

Man, did it take everything in her not to smack the sh!t out of this idiot.


Slender arms wrapping around his replusive neck, and her legs following suit around his torso, there were only a few things that were keeping Shihna from throwing up and possibly ripping his head off... and that was because she wasn't in the mood for death. With her dagger nowhere to be found, there was no way for the girl to get a few screams out of her victim as she pressed the blade against a vital area upon his throat. The position she was in, would probably arouse him even more if he was only facing the opposite way. Well, it was his loss. There was no way in hell he should even believe that these two were attracted to him.

"Ohhh... what do you think you're doing, Little Lady? Come back for more?"

His voice disgusted her, and only made her grip around his neck even tighter. The smile began to slowly grow upon her face finally noticing the struggle he had against her hold, he may have been stronger, but she had the upper hand with this compromising position. Maybe Jyuuki could get a snapshot for the so-called scrapbook they kept behind the counter. Boy, who wouldn't laugh at this little kodak moment? "Little Lady? It's really a shame, you know... You're not making this any easier. I was going to be polite and let you drift off to sleep but these comments of yours, makes me just want to... enjoy this torture, you know?" Whispering in his ear, her limbs tightened around his body and the laughter continued on as his own arms pulled at her skin.

He was pinching her, and it hurt like hell, but she wasn't going to let go. After throwing her through two doors and trying to persuade her to be his 'personal waitress' there was no way a 'Don't Worry About It~!' was going to make up for it.

"Don't even go thinking I'd ever swoon over a pathetic excuse for a man..." Releasing her hold, the former thief jumped back and could only watch in approval as he collapsed to the ground suddenly. Ah, payback was a b*tch, was it no? Especially when you were the one inflicting it... took too long. Reaching down for her ribbon which was discarded after her little flight, Shihna carefully attempted to place her wild hair into a ponytail. If it wasn't for this idiot on the floor, she wouldn't have to deal with the stress of doing her hair over again!

I mean, Shihna wasn't even the type to freak out over appearance; but the hair was something of upmost importance. Somewhat like a symbol if you could say - and not in that conceited way!

With a smile, her sore feet began to brush against the floors as she made her way towards Jyuuki and passed the large slump. It would take her some time to walk now because of the injuries her 'poor footsies' faced today, and her shoes were still not to be found. However, the smile upon her co-worker's face quickly changed to that of utter surprise when both she and Shihna noticed the thug taking hold of the thief's ankle. Pupil dilating yet again, Shihna let out a gasp of surprise before tugging at his nearly bone shattering grip. Never before had she be digusted with a man... never in her life did she want to inflict so much pain on someone right now.

Her feet were sore as it is! So why couldn't he get the picture already?!

"...Did you think we were done yet, witch...?" And so the name calling would begin, something in which Shihna had been waiting for since this start of this brawl. Raising her right leg with a dancer's speed, he somewhat raised with that. It seemed that he wasn't going to get up unless she helped him up, or he was going to be the one to bring her down. No, that wasn't going to happen. Not today. Kicking away this grip with the other foot, the black haired girl found herself upon the floor, and yet again he was preparing to throw her, off the airship this time.

It may have taken a moment, but with all that bottled anger, her tongue made it way from between her lips and she blew a raspberry at him. For once, that childish antic had actually gotten someone mad! Feeling his fingers brush against her torso yet again, with swift notion she grabbed hold of his wounded arm, not minding the blood that stained both her skin and clothing. With an abnormal twist and surprising boost of strength, she brought him to his knees in an armlock. Yet again, she found herself with a new chair, also known as the back of his knees. No movements were made until a single hand was raised to the back of his neck. Something she hasn't used since her final raid before she found herself at Cid's Bar... it always got her out of the toughest of situations. "Well then. Maybe you'll be a good boy now, and listen to what we have to say~"

Well that fun was over.

Picking herself up from Mr. Amnesia for a second time, the former thief made her way over to Jyuuki with nothing but a look of relief on her face. Atleast they had received some different action, she guessed.

"Well, we have some garbage to dispose of, dont'cha think?"

"HEY--" Jyuuki looked up after dodging a punch and looked back momentarily to send a jab of her own. The teen looked over at the angry man again, mid-fist fight, "Oh! Hey ya old fart! --" A dodge. A punch. A growl. "Stop yelling at them and help, old man!--" A hit taken. A hit given. A groan, another growl. "Where's Shihn! Tell her to get the girl away from these idiots and--" Jyuuki jumped back from a hard hook, flipped down and used her legs to knock the guy off his feet-- "--get her to safety first! SHIHN HEAR THAT? Damnit where is she?!"


QUOTE (krisk @ Nov 26 2008, 10:21 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
The former ninja stepped onto her beaten opponent's body as she made her way over to Cid and the Elvaan girl. Her hazel-eyes skimmed over the young girl and noticed various bruises, not to mention the fact that she was heaving with a sort of panicked exhaustion. And there was the old man. Squeeing.

Jyuuki groaned and spit aside some more collected blood. "Okay sure protect her, Mister Hero, but can you at least look at her? Old man. She's needs help as she is!" Jyuuki pointed at the girl and Cid followed her gaze, "Check out those bruises and cuts, not to mention she's about to pass out. Just--Just take her to my room. Get her cleaned up and let're borrow some of my threads."

I looked over at the Hume girl with gratitude in my lavender-coloured eyes, and held my aching side weakly as I nodded my thanks at the other girl.

It had been a long hard struggle just trying to stay one step ahead of these thugs, and I was pretty much at the end of my rope, and was incredibly grateful to these people who didn't even know me, and who had absolutely no reason whatsoever to help me, for stepping in and dealing some much deserved damage to those jerks.

QUOTE (shadow_Uzumaki @ Nov 26 2008, 11:25 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Cid turned as the obviously pissed off ninja ran passed him, "Jyu, my girl, you have permission to shove this where it belongs." Cid stuck his spear to the floor, then offered a hand to the Elvaan girl, "M'lady, let this humble, old man escort you to a room." He flashed his kind, grandfatherly smile usually reserved to birthday parties for small children during Cid's Storytime!! (which by the way, he had to "thank" Jyuuki for, damn clown wig itched for ages....)

Cid looked back to Jyuu and promptly stifled a gag, he knew what the girl was doing and smirked. "They have this under control" he said to the Elvaan, "Your name, little lady?"

I looked up into the older gentlman's kindly eyes, and felt an answering smile tug at the corners of my lips, as I placed my much smaller hand into his own, and said in a soft Elvish lilt, "My name is Raven, kind sir. I am terribly sorry for bringing all of this trouble into your establishment, and you have absolutely no idea how truly grateful I am for your help in getting rid of these goons, who have chased me far and wide all over the skies for the past few months. I would truly love to take you and the young female Hume's offer to go lie down up, as I have been injured in my daily struggle to survive against these 3 thugs. Normally, I would be able to handle at least 2 of these guys, but I have been hunted and chased down by them so hard and for so long, and all of my weapons had been lost in a past ambush set up by them, so I am not at my best right now. And as much as I would dearly like to just sit down and rest for even a few minutes, I simply can not just leave while you all fight in my honour. I must stay and see that these 3 goons are completely taken care of. I recommend either tossing them completely off of the airship, and let them get a taste of what gravity can do to a person with no wings, as they plummet to the ground below. Or that you call the local law enforcement to take care of them, after you have all...beaten them into submission. Because otherwise they will never stop. They are all too persistent. You have to make them stop, or they will always come back," I finished, as I looked over at the battle that was still being waged...for me.

I didn't know who these people were, or why they would risk their own lives to defend a total stranger like me, but their defense of me gave me a warm feeling inside, that I hadn't felt since the last time that I was with my Sky Pirate family, and feeling of warmth spread throughout my entire body, and warmed the cold recesses of my heart, that I had had to harden over the last few months just to stay alive, out there in the sometimes cold and unforgiving skies, surrounded by people caught up in a war being waged by two factions...Republic and Empire...that I had had absolutely no interest in getting involved in.

It seemed as if I had finally found some warm and caring people...and I...wanted to stay and get to know them a little better...I wanted to finally stop having to run and to just...stand still...and actually talk with people again, instead of always having to be on the constant look out for a fight to come my way.

I wanted to get to know them better...and to...stay...

I looked over at all the fighting still going on, and saw through the busted up front door, that the two young Hume girls were currently engaged in with one of the goons outside. All of a sudden I found myself shouting out to them, "FIGHT! DON'T LET THEM BEAT YOU! THEY'RE SCUM AND NOT WORTHY OF ANYONE! I KNOW THAT YOU CAN WIN! PLEASE! GET UP AND FIGHT! I KNOW THAT YOU BOTH CAN WIN!" I then blushed at my sudden outburst, not really knowing where it had all just come from, but I kept watching with fierce amethyst eyes, and internally cheered when I saw the two young female Humes take down the last of the thugs.

Intense relief flooded through me, and I waited eagerly to meet the two Humes, who had just risked life and limb to help me.

Yeah I know, and I apologize for that-- seems that I was a bit touchy considering I was dealing with a few things that affected my psych. xD;;; so yeah I kinda agree with ya, it's just that it was complete first person. And that made it sort of difficult to reply. I guess they way he rp-ed was new to me! My bad. xDDD;)

(OOC - I know, I know that you were going through some seriously phail dramaz at the time, and I know you already apologized. Everything is all good love :3 <3~ )

Maybe she was a tid bit young but she had her share of life experiences in her mind. "Not really I often end up smothered in guts, blood and brains.

Draco instnctily grabbed his APSh. But then fell down on his ass and his head from alcohol intoxication. THen the world went dim and lowly faded away in a dream. In a bar fight Dragomir Vlackovsky passed out for a minute.



Draco started waking up he saw the ceeling of the ship, where was he? Oh the Bar, yeah he was drinking with one bartender some vodka and then some noise and the he passe out. He looked up and saw the bar employees fighting each other. "Oh this was the fuss" He mumured.

Draco slowly stood up with his rifle in his hands and aimed at the sky. Shot a burst full of ammo in there and said "You three SOBs I give you 15 seconds to pack up and leave or else you'll be brought down into a pile of mashed mush by lead."

Archer blinked behind his googles, though with the patch over his one eye it would look more like a wink. He was some distance away, but he was close enough to be able to see the group of aircraft land on a low flying airship.

"Hmm, interesting," he thought as he banked his Heliscooter towards the airship in question, "I wonder what's going on...from the look of things, I may be able to pick up some information. Maybe some of it will lead me to the location of this Cid person I've been looking for."

A few minutes later, he landed the craft down on the deck near the pods and hit the control that converted it back to its scooter form.

"This Heliscooter is certainly conveniant," he chuckled to himself as he secured it so no one would be able to steal it and pilot the craft away without his consent, "small, light, and able to be used for both air and ground travel. Those ones I sold back in the City Of Love should help spread the word around and boost my business."

Archer knew that word of mouth advertising was one of the more effective means as people only said things about stuff they liked. He continued his silent musings as he walked inside, so blinded by his thoughts that he missed the sign that said "Cid's Bar". Still coming up with different themed designs for various Skimmers and Heliscooters, he ended up tripping over a chair that had fallen in the doorway to the bar.

Jyuuki watched with her slightly bruised arms crossed, a grin of approval on her face, as she watched her co-worker take out the last goon herself (like hell, she was gonna take this away from her-- it wasn't her place). 'Heh, what a way to take out someone out. Not bad, Shihn, not bad at all!'

QUOTE (Sakura~Kitsune @ Nov 27 2008, 12:20 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Picking herself up from Mr. Amnesia for a second time, the former thief made her way over to Jyuuki with nothing but a look of relief on her face. Atleast they had received some different action, she guessed.

"Well, we have some garbage to dispose of, dont'cha think?"

She wasn't kidding.

"No doubt 'bout that one, Shihn." Jyuuki replied with a lazy grin, finally allowing the stress of having to be on guard drip down her tense shoulders. She lifted a gloved hand to the back of her neck, cracked it once and finally, ran it through her messy hair, which seemed to come undone during the seduction session. Ho man, seduction session. The young bartender couldn't wait to tell her kids about that one.

Jyuuki made her way past her friend, who gave her a small fist-bump as she passed, and stood next to the body of the 3rd and final thug. With a look of slight disgust, she looked and then back up, before looking back down again and grabbing an arm, already lifting him up, "Gimme a hand with this, let's take it back in and pile it up with the rest of them." Shihna laughed and nodded silently, though already mulling over the fact that they were both going to refer to the thugs as 'its' then.

Hell, it was true wasn't it?

Anyway, the two employees dragged the body in through the busted doors of the bar and threw him in the middle of the drinking area, ontop of the one Jyuuki had taken out herself; 2 down 1 to go. "Hmm... didn't one have a --"

"FAAAAAAAAWK damnit, this hurts like a b*tch!"

"--Ah nevermind, found 'em." Jyuuki finished as she made her way over to the thug that had had Cid's spear shoved through his arm, who was now groaning on the floor, holding his wound. With a groan and without turning around, the young teen threw up an arm and waved Shihna towards where Cid and the young Elvaan girl was, "Hey Shihn, I'll take care of this last guy-- you go ahead and make your way over to our newcomer and the old fart, you haven't even seen her yet. She's the one who, kinda technically, brought these guys here-- I'll catch up inna bit."

With that said, Jyuuki made her way over to the thug, while rubbing her lip. 'Man, my beautiful lips... Baw, I hope this doesn't bruise too ba--'

Still coming up with different themed designs for various Skimmers and Heliscooters, he ended up tripping over a chair that had fallen in the doorway to the bar.

Her thoughts were interrupted have-whine as she heard a loud grunt and the sound of a body make contact with the dirty with debris floor, fill her ears. Jyuuki's head swiveled with her body, to the right, and took in the sight of a man on the floor, currently groaning and picking himself up from the floor.

'What the hell... GAH WHERE ARE YOU IDIOTS COMIN FROM!?' Anger boiled up cleanly, as she hadn't expected anymore thugs to show up. With a growl, Jyuuki quickly made her way over to the man, bent over and cleanly picked him up by his collar with two gloved hands. He gave a small yelp of surprise but the young teen just growled again, before half carrying him, half dragging him over to the wall where she roughly shoved him against.

"Okay listen up. There's no doubt in my mind that I'm this close to throwing the next one of you off the damn ship," Jyuuki's whispered coldly, her face close to his, a feral gleam in her eyes as she threatened him all the while holding him up to her eye level. Considering this and her height, the guy's legs were forced to lay down below against the floor awkwardly. The young bartender continued her ice-steel threat. "And it just turns out that you're that next one. I'm giving you 10 seconds to tell me who the hell you are and why the kitten you and your cronies are here."

Shihna could only glance towards their 'impressive' pile with a look of disappointment, these things were a disgrace to people, basically. Spending their time chasing after a young Elvaan girl for what, she couldn't help but wonder. Was it money? Or were they the type of monsters that enjoyed the rush of it all? Even after everything that took place, she couldn't comprehend what the hell was going on in their minds. Placing 'Amnesia', as she called him now, atop of his partner, Shihna's eyes glanced about for both her dagger and that helpful mouse. After assisting her with one of those big fellas over there, the former thief could not help but be thankful to the little creature. She could only hope that the poor thing didn't get hurt when that thing flicked it away from her grasp.

Her vision was still not as acqurate as it was this morning, and her posture was seriously lacking, Shihna stood firmly (that's what she called it) in the center of the drinking area; trying her best to notice out-of-place colors. However, her ears quickly perked up upon hearing a soft sound - which was similar to that of a small animal. She croutched close to the floors, not minding the pain that radiated from head to toe as she began her little search.

It didn't take her any longer than five minutes to find the small mouse hiding underneath a loose floorboard, but the sudden disappearance of her dagger was urking her. The dope had picked her up and tossed her through the doors which simply meant that her dagger had either gone in the opposite direction or had literally fallen off the airship. Nah. She wouldn't believe the second choice... basically because the only sound she was able to hear once landing through the interest was the sound of one of her most precious items. Her lovely dagger was probably residing beside Cid and that newcomer.

Speaking of the newcomer, they were going to have to introduce themselves!

With a smirk, she could only chuckle at the thug who had made close friends with Cid's spear. Was it wrong to feel sorry for the poor guy? Or was it because she knew what Jyuuki could do to get him to stop whining and attempt pulling that spear out. But that would probably cause even more screaming and the list would continue on until the thug was finally silent. "We're going to have to pull out that spear, you know. Cid's gonna cut our paychecks even more if we don't get back his precious little girl." Joking around, a few more laughs released from her centre before taking notice of what they had to do. It seemed that fact and fiction was finally being sorted into the right categories in her brain. Sure, it had taken some time... but the nineteen year old was awaiting the reawakening of her sanity.

It was pretty humorous to know that an unusual bar-fight can completely change your personal.

With a groan and without turning around, the young teen threw up an arm and waved Shihna towards where Cid and the young Elvaan girl was, "Hey Shihn, I'll take care of this last guy-- you go ahead and make your way over to our newcomer and the old fart, you haven't even seen her yet. She's the one who, kinda technically, brought these guys here-- I'll catch up inna bit."



Features converted into that of concern upon hearing what Jyuuki had to say. Chewing on the inside of her mouth, Shihna began to wonder if everything was alright with her co-worker. Already alot had been taken out of the two of them in a matter of minutes; and it wasn't fun and games until they were the ones in charge, but all in all, both girls had taken serious blows. And for an added bonus, the damage placed upon the bar showed of these injuries in which were inflicted. Shihna could only cringe as her darkened eyes locked onto the busted doors. She couldn't deny it, but that thug really did have a good arm - something that she could've used on a sports team or something.

Wait. Why was she even thinking of anything like this? Half of her mind must still be in Lala-land... just great.

"Alright then... If you need any help Jyuu, just holler if you can~" Her response, was a simple offer of help. As she limped her way towards Cid and the Elvaan, Shihna smile genuine yet weakly towards the girl behind her. Really, she had no idea what she would do without Jyuuki.

That bartender is like a blood relative; her actual sister.

Amazing how you can make such a relationship with certain people along your travels in this hectic world.


Her body, sore all over, Shihna kept the smile upon her face as she made it closer to the two on the opposite side of the room. With that small mouse yet again placed at her shoulder, the black haired girl took a breather whilst rubbing her fingers across her bruised arm. The former thief was known to usually graze her fingertips across any wounds that adorned her body... since it was somewhat of a 'healing process' to her. Her right cheek, however, still possessed the dry blood from her little laughing moment. In a nutshell, her appearance was a complete disaster.

Either covered in bruises, sores and blood... and that bothersome hair didn't make it any better.

If you didn't know the true Shihna, most people would probably run away if they saw her in this state. Clearly thinking that she's either a bit psychotic or serial killer; something along those lines. But that was not the case, the energy from earlier was just drained from her body and would probably make a surprising return by tonight (if she was lucky). "Uh yeaaah, Cid... Sorry about the door, and everything else... I guess this is what happens when you're tossed around like a rag doll~" Joking, with a bright smile, Shihna turned her attention towards the Elvaan girl and was nothing but overjoyed with this newcomer. Sure, she had those thugs following after her... but she was still supportive during the whole sitaution.

"Although I'm surprised we had an audience cheering us on, that's a first~ Nice to meet ya, I'm Shihna" It was nearly impossible to raise a hand to shake so Shihna went with the usual wave before finding herself on the floor. Her legs had finally given out after so much stress, so she was basically stuck sitting on her backside until someone was nice enough to help. Although with widened eyes, her thief-ian instincts kicked in as she crawled towards the heap of unconscious thugs. Her well-being fully sparkling with joy, it seemed that her dagger had found it's way back to it's rightful owner when she accidentally kicked it during her 'journey' to where Cid was. "Awww, did you miss mommy? I'm sure you did... now we're going to do what we do best~!"

Her personality had changed like that.

Sure, it seemed pretty scary... but that was Shihna for you.

Still smiling like a small child, she looked back at Cid while pointing at the pile of thugs and her dagger at the same time. Since she hasn't tried to steal anything from any of the customers for a few days now, atleast he would agree to her stealing from these creeps. "Ciiiiiddd, can I pllleeeeaaasssse?"

Honestly, she wished to see what good stuff they had hidden behind their tough exteriors - probably something extra valuable from their 'boss'... or something that they had taken from another airship along the way... or maybe even... GOLD OR DIAMONDS! A girl's best friend, ya know?

Cid just HAD to let her have her fun now; it was only fair!


(OOC: yeaaaah, i'll probably -well most definintely- be heading off to sleep soon and will probably post first thing in the morning / afternoon / whenver I wake up. xD Happeh Thanksgiving~! <3)

Her thoughts were interrupted have-whine as she heard a loud grunt and the sound of a body make contact with the dirty with debris floor, fill her ears. Jyuuki's head swiveled with her body, to the right, and took in the sight of a man on the floor, currently groaning and picking himself up from the floor.

'What the hell... GAH WHERE ARE YOU IDIOTS COMIN FROM!?' Anger boiled up cleanly, as she hadn't expected anymore thugs to show up. With a growl, Jyuuki quickly made her way over to the man, bent over and cleanly picked him up by his collar with two gloved hands. He gave a small yelp of surprise but the young teen just growled again, before half carrying him, half dragging him over to the wall where she roughly shoved him against.

"Okay listen up. There's no doubt in my mind that I'm this close to throwing the next one of you off the damn ship," Jyuuki's whispered coldly, her face close to his, a feral gleam in her eyes as she threatened him all the while holding him up to her eye level. Considering this and her height, the guy's legs were forced to lay down below against the floor awkwardly. The young bartender continued her ice-steel threat. "And it just turns out that you're that next one. I'm giving you 10 seconds to tell me who the hell you are and why the kitten you and your cronies are here."


The look in Archer's visible eye was one of amusement as he replied, with a slight chuckle to his voice.

"You'll find my card in your back pocket, young lady," he told her.

Indeed, Jyuuki would find a standard sized white business card in the indicated pocket when she checked. On it was an intricate design in black ink with letters written in gold using a beautiful, flowing script that said 'Ronon Archer' with 'Jack-Of-All-Trades' printed below it in similar, though smaller, script. Exactly when he had gotten a chance to slip it into place, there was no evidence and he wasn't talking.

Though quiet, the clank of his seathed sword against the bulkhead he was currently being held against would probably sound like a canon being fired, even with all the noise still in the room. Crossing his arms across his chest below where the kunoichi was holding his shirt, he willingly put himself in a position where he wouldn't be able to grab for the blade quickly.

"Mind if I take my googles off now?" he inquired as he looked at the girl through the polarized lense in front of his visible eye.

OOC: Happy turkey day, everyone.
