Musashi's Safehouse

It seemed as though one thing Marco was going to have to try and work on with Nanami on her sense of humor.

...good luck, Marco

"I do know this isn't going to be easy, even if I don't sound like it," Marco responded, "but if I'm not confident in myself, then I'm more likely to get myself killed, even if the plan is just simply 'escape'..."

"...Though also, I hope you don't have to decide to try and kill everyone in the house, 'cause killing someone working for the US government won't help with the prince's goals... Just like killing the prince wouldn't help, either, " he then gave a little bit of a smile and laugh.

[Musashi’s Safehouse]

Nanami was silent once more. She often seemed to go silent when she was deep in thought, with a worried expression on her face.

“True. A lack of confidence will get you killed very fast…” She hesitated, as if she was unsure she should add anything, but then said: “And I do have some confidence in you.”

She leaned back, tucking some hair behind her ear. “… I don’t anticipate on killing anyone here. It would just become irritating.”

Musashi's safe house


Didymus was silent as Musashi spoke.

"I am aware that the circumstances surrounding your previous exploits have been...abnormal. I am also aware of your own service record, and the credits to your name." he said. "I do not deny that you were effective-at least, as effective as you needed to be. But..."

He paused.

"...I'm giving it to you like it ism as I see it. Even IF you had your reasons for behaving as you have done, you don't strike me as a professional at the end of the day. The tactics that I've read your team used, again, proved effective enough for the situation...but...where we're going, they won't work. At the very least, more...refinement...will need to go into them. Whether or not you're the every bit the soldier I am..."

He paused.

"I'm sure the Japanese have their unique...mentality, shall we say, as warriors...and the United States Marine Corps has ITS unique mentality. As for my service record...yes, I've been in regular units. But without saying too much...you don't know it all. And not just because you weren't there, as I wasn't there for YOUR service."

He looked a tad more earnest.

"With all that said, perhaps I have been unprofessional in my attitudes and actions here, at least in some parts, or otherwise generally spoken out of turn, and I do apologize for crossing lines that were uncalled for, if I've done so."

[Musashi’s Safehouse]

Musashi paused. There were things he wanted to say – he certainly disagreed with the idea that was not professional – but he did not open his mouth. The young Prince knew that simply debating with Didymus would not accomplish much.

“… You’re right, at least to some extent. Neither of us is really in any position to judge one another’s record since neither of us was there… and I doubt either of us could claim professionalism if our opinions could be swayed by words.”

He suddenly offered a smile. “In my experience, I’ve never done much to win people over with words. The Sakura Team couldn’t stand me when I first showed up, and only agreed to my command after I proved my worth… and the situation we find ourselves in is even more abnormal then when I was sent to the New York Combat Revue.”

Musashi shrugged his shoulders. “So… rather than stand around and debate, I suppose we’ll have to win one another’s trust through our actions. Until then… for the good of the mission… I think we should both agree that we have experience and we both have something to add to this team.”

Musashi extended his hand. “So what do you say? Bury the hatchet, at least for now?”

"Hmm." Didymus said. "I've never been good with people, not too much, anyway. My Marines accepted my leadership because they're good Marines, who follow orders, and respect the chain of command, even if they hate it."'

“So what do you say? Bury the hatchet, at least for now?”

Didymus took his hand.

"Yes...yes, that is probably the best way forward." he chuckled a bit.

Musashi nodded and shook Didymus’ hand. He reflected on his words, and decided to offer some advice.

“Well, you’re definitely not dealing with Marines anymore, and there will be some disadvantages to that. However, there will be some advantages to our group as well. What matters more than any of our personal preferences or opinions, though, is the task at hand.”

Rica’s Safehouse

Kanna felt Rica's arm slink around her hips, the woman kissing him for a few more moments before stepping back. "I still think this is a bad idea" she mumbled, biting her lip and looking up at him.

Lenny’s Car

"You can get in touch with him?" Crystal asked, raising a brow and turning to her boyfriend. She looked back to Lenny, who looked equally surprised. "I think you're still a little loopy Sama"

That had to be it....Right?

Air Field


Adrianna grabbed Oliver 's hand, pulling him into the cabinet and climbing in with him.

“Adrianna! Where are you?”

"Shhhh don't say anything" Adrianna whispered, placing a hand over his mouth.

Meanwhile Laila walked alongside her brother, looking around the empty room. "Are you sure she's here?"

[Rica’s Safehouse]

Rica gave a slight sigh and rubbed his neck.

“When has this being a bad idea ever stopped us before?” Rica asked, raising an eyebrow. “Darling, we just pissed off one of the highest ranked Nazis in all of the regime. We might as well live it up.”

[Hospital]

“No, I can cause of the time with the guy.” Sama said, still wobbling around in his seat as they arrived. Then he passed out.

Twenty minutes later, after Sama had been admitted and treated with several medications, he, Crystal and Lenny would find themselves in his hospital room where finally the boy could explain.

“Ow… that nurse was a little crazy with the needles and my skin.” Sama whimpered.

“Yeah, fascinating… now before you passed out, you mentioned being able to get in contact with President Roosevelt. Was that the poison talking or were you serious?” Lenny asked.

Sama blinked. “Oh, that? Yeah… that’s real. I worked a case back when FDR was Governor of NYC. The victim was a friend of Eleanor Roosevelt, and as a thanks for helping close the case, she said if I ever needed anything to just call.”

Sama shrugged. “I figured having the Governor’s wife owe me one might be the kind of thing I’d hold onto, and then he got elected President and, well… I was thinking I’d hold onto the favor in case I ever got arrested or for a recommendation to join the FBI… but then I’m not sure I want to work for J. Edgar Hoover, he’s a little psychotic…”

Lenny slapped his head. “Can you FOCUS, please?”

Sama shook his head. “Sorry, I think I’m really out of it from almost dying and all the medicine. The point is – I have one favor, and I can call the President. I was actually planning on calling him if Jeremie decided to throw me in jail, but this seems important too.”

[Air Field]

Oliver was suddenly aware of the fact that he and Adrianna were crammed together in a very small closet.

“… You know, come to think of it… if they find us in here it’s going to look really bad.”

“Positive...” Aaron said, turning his head, “Her powers...she's frazzled about something...”

Being cramped in a closet with a guy would probably be the reason why.

He headed inside the room, holding his hand up. Light glowed from it softly now, just enough so he could see, having trouble seeing in the dark.

Aaron moved carefully, stopping in front of the closet. He sighed, frowning a little.

“Hiding in the closet sis, really? We're not six anymore,” Aaron said, grabbing the door and opening it swiftly.

Only to find his sister and Oliver right up next to each other in the closet.

Aaron blinked. Thankfully Aaron was not extremely overprotective. He knew his sisters could handle themselves, and that he doubted there was any guy who could force themselves on them. Adrianna could just snap a guy's arm off.

“Umm...hello?” Aaron finally asked, “I was not expecting this.”

Oliver paused as suddenly the door opened and he saw two strangers standing on the other side. The boy, at least, looked a lot like Adrianna and he had a feeling that this was the brother she had mentioned.

“Hello!” Oliver said in a voice that was entirely too chipper for the circumstance. “I have to say, there’s a lot of this I wasn’t expecting either.”

Adrianna jumped as the closet door was pulled open revealing her brother and sister staring back at her....And Oliver...Stuffed in a closet...Together. Instantly the girls cheeks went bright red.

"A-Aaron! Laila!"

"Well look who's getting all comfy cozy with a stranger" Laila teased with a giggle, earning a glare from her sister.

Adrianna sighed, stepping out of the closet and pointing to Oliver. "This is Oliver, he was showing me his plane. Nothing else"

Laila raised a brow "He has a plane? Now this is getting interesting"

Rica’s Safehouse

Live it up before we get murdered by the Nazis" Kanna said, leaning in a kissing him. "Sounds reasonable" she muttered

Hospital

Crystal followed Lenny and Sama into the hospital room, waiting anxiously as her boyfriend was poked with several needles and treated with some questionable looking medicines...After a short while though he seemed to be improving and was sent to another room to rest up. This gave the group to talk privately.

“Sorry, I think I’m really out of it from almost dying and all the medicine. The point is – I have one favor, and I can call the President. I was actually planning on calling him if Jeremie decided to throw me in jail, but this seems important too.”

"You can just call him!? Saaaaaaama! Why didn't you tell me before!"

Crystal wondered what other connections the man had.

Oliver rubbed the back of his neck, well aware of how… odd this situation probably looked.

“Charmed to meet you!” Oliver extended his hand. “I’m Oliver Oakridge, and I assure you nothing torrid was going on.”

[Rica’s Safehouse]

“I was thinking more we live it up now and then we murder the Nazis.” Rica replied, grinning and returning her kiss.

[Hospital]

Sama shrugged.

“Well… I was going to tell you, but then Jeremie showed up and started talking about arresting me, and I thought it might be better if I kept that to myself.”

He stood up and whipped his hat back on. “I was actually considering… well… trying to get a job working for your agency. Maybe try to do some good on an official level.”

"...heh..." Marco pulled his head back up, from where he had been completely leaned back, with a little bit of a smile on his face.

"I guess that's as good as I'll probably get, from you," he then gave another slight laugh, but there was no malice behind his words or laugh.

"...and thank you," he added, looking over towards Nanami.

He then was quiet for a few moments, leaning back again. He was beginning to feel comfortable enough, that at least he didn't think he needed to preface things with a plea not to be yelled at or stabbed for his words.

"So Nanami..." Marco then yawned, interrupting his thought for a moment, "...Nanami, what do you do, when you aren't... well, when you have downtime with your protection detail on Musashi?"

Nanami was silent, deciding not to comment much on her rather unique (and often unnerving) social skills.

She merely nodded when he thanked her, and afterwards she sat thoughtfully and quiet. She speculated on what could happen next, with the mission… the possible war… and this ever-growing group of unusual people thrust together by circumstance…

"...Nanami, what do you do, when you aren't... well, when you have downtime with your protection detail on Musashi?"

“Downtime? There isn’t much downtime from protecting Musashi.” Nanami replied, shaking her head. “… I’ve always liked to read, though…”

“Ummm...good to meet you too...” Aaron said, shaking Oliver's hand, glancing towards his sister, “So you ran off, ran into this guy, and decided to go on a plane ride with him?”

He shook his head, sighing softly and turning back to Oliver, “Sorry if my sister has caused you any trouble. Come on Adrianna, we should be heading back...At least back home, if nothing else...”
