[US Embassy]

"So why does just mentioning your name seem to set those guys off?"

Snake shook his head. He really didn’t want to be standing here discussing The Cobras. The Cobra Unit were heroes of the Great War. They didn’t deserve to have doubt and suspicion cast upon them… but the evidence was mounting, and it was getting very hard for Snake to continue believing in their innocence.

“Probably… because of this damn code name.” Snake sighed. “When I appointed to my command position, President Roosevelt gave me a new code name. ‘Big Boss’. The other Cobras might see that as my trying to surpass The Boss…”

Snake could never think of himself as surpassing The Boss. It was a big part of the reason why he insisted to keep using the code name Naked Snake. Officially, he was Big Boss… but no one who knew him called him that.

Marco nodded along as Snake explained what he thought was the reason for those Cobra people's unhappiness with his name.

"Mmmm... So they're jealous over your code name... Even though you apparently aren't part of their group anymore... Maybe Ms. Boss is bitter you didn't follow her like the rest of her group..." he then commented, before leaning over to Jenny.

"You better watch out, 'cause you might have a rivallllll~!"

US Embassy

Didymus had read about the Cobra Unit as a part of the privileges of being on an intel op, and was to a certain extent familiar with them, though obviously nowhere near as familiar as Snake was.

"...I still need to hear what exactly happened." Didymus said, looking to both Marco and Snake.

"Preferably, I suppose, you first." he said to Marco.

Snake shook his head. It was not the first time that someone had insinuated that there Snake’s relationship with The Boss was romantic. Most people seemed to automatically assume that, seeing how close the two of them are.

“It’s not like that.” Snake said, shaking his head. “The Boss is my mentor. She’s my idol. I don’t know why she’s in Paris, or why she attacked you… but I do know she’s not our enemy.”

“Pretty sure she broke at least two of my ribs.” Nanami spoke up from the bed. She was still tired and sore and very low on blood, but she would not allow herself to pass out until she knew Musashi was here, and safe.

Snake grunted and shook his head. “… You’re part of the Nomura clan; the elite Japanese assassins that guard the Imperial family. It’s not public information that you’re working with us, and if I didn’t know you were on our side, I might attack you too.”

Nanami nodded. “Fair enough.”

"Are you suuuuuure?" Rumi Marco answered Snake's first statement about the Boss lady, " 'cause one of the things she mentioned is that we shouldn't say a single thing about her or her group to YOU. That just sounds all like someone trying to keep someone really important to them out of something that might get them hurt or in troubleeee ~♥"

Marco was... being himself.

"And yeah," he then directed himself to Didymus, pulling his briefcase off of his back (having held it that way since when he had to swim in the river), and opened it up. He then pulled out a piece of paper with an address on it, handing it over to Didymus. "I found this around where that crazy shooter lady was, when checking over that area again, so I felt like looking over where that place might be interesting. Especially since it seemed to be in a warehouse area... Nice place to hide if you want to. But yeah, Nanami tagged along, and we went there to look... and we found those lovely giant hornets..."

Marco then continued onwards in his explanation of all the events that occurred.

"...and then finally I was able to get that Fear guy with a tranq gun, but he still was able to set fire to that wooded area and escape towards the river, it seemed. So it was then, that I brought Nanami here, and... yeah, you should be able to get the rest of the play by play here, yourself. Heh..."

Marco then sighed, and fell back on the bed. He hoped Nanami hadn't talked about who's original idea it was to check out that address, as well as how they found it, before he spoke there. ANd he also hoped that he wouldn't get "officially" kicked off of this mission stuff for his explanation (though if he did, it probably wouldn't stop him from stalking them around and trying to help anyways).

Snake’s face was stone-like as Marco pressed deeper into his relationship with The Boss. It wasn’t easy to rattle Snake. He was a hardened soldier, and a man who routinely dealt not only with war, but with supernatural matters that often defied explanation.

“… If The Boss didn’t want me to know she was here, she has a reason.” Snake said, shaking his head.

There was an obvious possible explanation. The Boss didn’t want Snake to know because he was likely one of only a handful of people who might have a shot at beating her in battle… and if she was a traitor, she didn’t want Snake coming after her.

“Maybe she’s under orders to keep me in the dark.” Snake suggested. “She could be a secret mission for the President, or the Top Brass. Something I’m not allowed to know about.”

While it was theoretically possible, it was also very unlikely.


Nanami, meanwhile, lifted her head and looked over to Marco. She paused, and frowned as she realized he had made a small, but critical change in the story. He made it sound like it was his idea to investigate.

She frowned. As soon as they were alone, they would have to talk about this.

[Sama’s Office]

Crystal blinked, mouth still half full with sandwich when Kimi burst in, punched Sama and started yelling obsenities. At this point Crystal wasn't sure if his girl was REALLY happy or really pissed to see Sama.

Crystal then realized that Sama was on the ground and hopped up to go over to him, eying Kimi the whole time "Who the heck are you!?"

Streets

Samara went quiet as Blake tried to calm the girl/ shadow creature down.

That's what makes you real, not if you have a body or not...Besides, you can use my shadows to make a body for yourself...”

"But when I use them you don't have any way to protect yourself" Samara said, knowing real or not her main goal was to protect the boy. If he died she would be gone too after all.


Paris

[US Embassy]

“You’d be surprised how dangerous a narcissistic person can be.”

Chloe frowned a bit, not liking how serious the older man was getting in regards to the Nazis. She looked down, pouring him another glass. "I'm sure they won't get very far. After all the French have a pretty strong army right?"

Hahahahaha.

“She might have been with a British guy. My other sister is taller, pale skin, dark hair, green eyes. She would be with a Japanese guy, black hair, tall. Seen anyone like that?”

Chloe then turned to Aaron....Glaring slightly with a big smile. "A Japanese guy you saaaaaaaaaaay? Considering we're in the middle of Paris i'm gonna assume I know who you're talking about. He was quite the looker...Veeery tall. The girl looked a little skrawy though, oh they aren't dating are they!?"

Sarai sighed once more, wishing the topic of dangerous Germans would be dropped, she then noticed Connor was looking at her. She blinked and bit her lip. "D-Do I have something on my face?" she asked. Luckily then Aaron caught his attention too! She ducked off in the back, desprately hoping she didn't have dirt on her face or something!

Kimi blinked, and looked up. She seemed to only just now notice Crystal for the first time, her mind previously preoccupied with punching the living crap out of Sama’s head.

“Eh? Who the heck are YOU?” Kimi asked in response.

“Ugh…” Sama rolled over onto his back and groaned. He sat up, clutching his bloody nose and glared at Kimi. “What the hell was that for!?”

Kimi narrowed her eyes. “That was for Chicago.”

Sama paused, tilting his head in confusion. “Oh come on! That was a year ago! Let it go already!”

“You swiped my bounty!” Kimi growled.

“I was assisting Chicago PD with an investigation! It’s not my fault I also happened to find a wanted fugitive!” Sama yelled back, his eyes narrowed.

“Yeah, well you cost me a lot of cash! And until you pay it back, you can consider yourself my b-tch!” Kimi snarled.

“Uggggh.” Sama groaned.

This must all be very confusing for poor Crystal.

[Paris]

[US Embassy]

Musashi and Laila soon returned to the Embassy. Coincidentally, around this same time, Adrianna and Oliver also returned… leading to the four of them to reach the Embassy grounds at the same time.

“Oh… um… hi.” Musashi said as he noticed Adrianna and Oliver. Here he was, walking with his arm around Laila’s waist. It was a bit awkward.

Luckily, there was something else to talk about.

“Are the woods on fire?” Musashi blinked, noticing that next to the embassy was a raging inferno.

[Chloe’s Bar]

Connor was suddenly caught staring at Sarai and he turned as red as a beet and quickly shook his head.

“Ah-ah, n-n-no! I’m sorry! I wasn’t staring.” Connor quickly shook his head, trying to hide his blush, and hoping that his grandfather wouldn’t notice.

“Oh don’t mind the boy.” Corwin spoke up. “He’s just not used to being around girls and doesn’t realize its rude to stare when he thinks they’re pretty.”

“Graaaaaaandpa.” Connor groaned, burring his face in his hands.

“Alright, she's good for now. Just needs rest, and fluids,” Jenny said, stepping away from Nanami, then turned her attention to Marco, frowning a little.

“I may not have been a part of the outfit Snake was in with the others, but I know him well enough,” Jenny said. She knew that Snake had no romantic feelings for Big Boss. If anything, Jenny was fairly certain Snake looked to her like a mother figure.

-Chloe's Bar-

“If it's the same person, yah, they're dating,” Aaron nodded, “So I guess they were here.”

He frowned a bit, not sure what to think of Chloe calling his sister 'scrawny.' Lalia was certainly taller then Chloe, and Kanna genes tended to be strong...

Aaron sighed, shaking his head, “Well at least I know I'm on the right track. Do you know where the US Embassy is though? I'm a bit lost... I don't know much French. Just English and Spanish.”

New York City

-Streets-

“Lots of people protect themselves without powers,” Blake said to Samara, “Besides...You can protect me if anything bad happens...and...”

Blake focused, willing his shadows around him, feeling that inner energy.

“I have enough power to let you stay around and still use my powers,” Blake said, “So don't worry about me.”

[US Embassy]

Snake was extremely uncomfortable with all the conversations and allegations about his personal life. He had always tried to keep his work and his private time separate. He loved the time he got to spend with Jenny outside of missions, but he liked to remain professional when he was on the job. And even beyond that, he hated to talk about The Boss.

“Every one of the Cobras would tell you the same thing about The Boss. It’s nothing unique to me… in fact; it’s not even unique to Cobras. Any soldier who served with her had the utmost respect for her.” Snake explained.

He knew The Boss couldn’t be a traitor… he just knew it…

[Chloe’s Bar]

“I know where the US Embassy is.” Corwin said, looking over to Aaron. “While it pains me to say it, my son-in-law works for the British Embassy. Since I refuse to sleep there, he sometimes makes arrangements with a friend of his at the US Embassy to let me stay there.”

"Musashi!?" Adrianna exclaimed as he and Laila approached then, the girl rushing over but pausing when she noticed Musashi's arm slinked around Laila's waist. Her face went deadpan. "Oh. Hello."

“Are the woods on fire?”

Suddenly Laila and Adrianna turned to the fire.

"What the hell!?" Laila exclaimed.

Chloe’s Bar

“Ah-ah, n-n-no! I’m sorry! I wasn’t staring.”

Sarai blushed but gave a little smile, looking down.

“Oh don’t mind the boy. He’s just not used to being around girls and doesn’t realize its rude to stare when he thinks they’re pretty.”

Suddenly Sarai went VERY red. "U-Uh...T-Thank you"

“Well at least I know I'm on the right track. Do you know where the US Embassy is though? I'm a bit lost... I don't know much French. Just English and Spanish.”

Chloe perked up, leaning forward on the bar. "The Embassy? Well they're all on the same street where Sarai's father works...I assumes it's a bit further down from the Indian one though..But we can show you-AFTER the rush"

Sarai sighed "Shouldn't something like this take priority"

Chloe raised a brow "Shouldn't YOU be donning the onesie with feathers?"

"CHLOEEEEE" Sarai exclaimed.

"Maybe a corset?" Chloe laughed.


New York City

Streets

"Are you sure?" Samara asked hesitantly, stopping and staring at the boy. "Bad things will happen if you run out of energy...I don't want you to die"

She then moved forward and hugged the boy suddenly, staying totally silent.

Sama’s Office

"Chicago? What happened in Chicago?" Crystal said, cradling poor Sama's head as she looked to Kimi with a frown.

“You swiped my bounty!”

Crystal raised a brow. "Bounty? Also i'm Crystal, his girlfriend! Who the heck are you!?" she then looked down at Sama "And you're a bounty hunter?"

[US Embassy]

The fire was burning out of control. The Embassy security forces, along with the local Paris Fire Department, were all on the scene trying to control the blaze. There was just one problem – water wasn’t working on the flames!

The fire had been started by White Phosphorus. It would burn until the WP was all gone, even if it was drenched in water.

“Damn, damn damn!” Musashi growled as he saw the blaze. “Why didn’t I bring my sword?”

How is a sword going to help him put out a fire? You’ll see.

“Come on! We have to get to our hotel! I need my sword!” Musashi yelled, and without explanation he ran towards the hotel across the street where the group was staying.

[Chloe’s Bar]

Connor blinked as Sarai and Chloe began to argue. He didn’t know what they were talking about, so he just remained quiet… but he wanted to talk to Sarai some more. She was very pretty…

[New York City]

[Sama’s Office]

“HAH! Him? A bounty hunter?” Kimi laughed loudly when Crystal asked Sama if he was a bounty hunter.

Sama just groaned and looked up at Crystal. “No… I’m a detective, like I said… I helped the Chicago PD catch this wanted gangster guy, and Kimi here had been after him to collect a bounty…”

“And cops don’t pay a bounty when some crackpot wannabe detective catches the bad guy without a bounty hunting license!” Kimi shouted. “You owe me money!”

Marco sighed once again, at Snake and Jenny's responses.

"Aww... You guys aren't any fun..." he then said quietly, before sitting back up and putting his hands together in front of his face.

"But it sounds like you're trying to come up with excuses at every opportunity, to try and prove that these guys weren't enemies... So why is it that there's a need for you to prove that?"

Jenny sighed a little, then looked towards Nanami.

“You need rest. I'll find you a room to lay down in. I don't want you moving around for at least twelve hours, and you'll need to drink plenty of fluids,” Jenny said.


Aiden was quiet, listening to the others, then turned to Didymus, tapping his arm.

“Ummm...Perhaps I should leave?” Aiden asked him, “I can meet back with everyone at the Notre Dame tomorrow...Or should I come back here to meet with you first?”

-Chloe's Bar-

“I don't want to be any trouble,” Aaron said to Chloe, “I wouldn't think to take you away from your business.”

He paused a little, rubbing his chin and thinking.

“Heck...I should have a little fun. No harm having a pop and getting a little culture in...” Aaron thought to himself.

Well...he was Ethan and Kanna's kid.

“I wouldn't mind staying here for a bit anyways. My sisters can take care of themselves...” Aaron said. One did have super strength like him, and the other could regenerate...And probably both had knives on them...

Blake hugged Samara back, embracing the girl for a few moments.

“Don't worry, I have lots of energy to spare for both of us,” Blake said, smiling, “Just...don't hurt anyone, okay?”

“Why didn’t I bring my sword?”

Laila knew that Musashi was a bit strange, but she also was aware that he was impressively skilled as a fighter-but the sword comment made no sense.

"What would you do with a sword!?" Laila called out as Musashi bolted off towards the hotel. She quickly rushed after them, leaving Adrianna and Oliver to figure out what to do about the fire.

"Those idiots!" Adrianna exclaimed, looking from the two and back to the flames. She the looked back to Oliver "Come on, we need to make sure no one is in there!"

She then rushed at the flames, using her impressive strength to get through the door. She wasn't sure if Oliver had actually followed her, but she knew she needed to use her powers to help. It was what her father had taught her after all.

Chloe's Bar

“I wouldn't mind staying here for a bit anyways. My sisters can take care of themselves...”

"Well you came at the perfect time. The bar gets really interesting around now" Chloe said, leaning on the bar "And who knows? Maybe your sisters will find their way here too?"

As if on cue the bar started to fill up with patrons ready for a drink, speaking a variety of languages--though mostly French. Chloe ushered the group into a large booth, Sarai bringing by a tray of mugs and sitting down.

"It's on the house" Chloe said, taking a swig of a mug before taking a seat beside Aaron. Sarai gave a small smile (aimed mostly at Connor) before disappearing back into the crowd. She wasn't sure how she got pulled into serving drinks tonight, but she was.

Well it was better than donning the sequins and tiny dresses like Chloe wanted.

Sama’s Office

Crystal blinked...So Sama was friends...Or partners...Or something- with bounty hunters. Even if it was unwilling it was still a tiny bit sketchy.

"Oooookay...You do realize that Bounty hunting is super sketchy right?" She asked Kimi, raising a brow "You shouldn't be mad at Sama for catching a criminal the honest way-"

Oh goodness. Crystal shouldn't start talking ethics with Kimi. It won't end well.

Sarama nodded, stepping back and looking down. She would try her hardest to do what Blake told her...And not what she felt was right...
