Outside Japanese Restaurant

Laila was totally silent, watching the two brothers exchange words in a heated debate...She didn't know what she really could say in a situation like this...Not to mention Musashi's brother was pretty intimidating. She would stay quiet....

“... I'm not much for ritual suicide.”

"W-Wait what?!?" Laila exclaimed, moving out from behind the boy and glaring at Kojiro. "No one is going to kill themselves, I don't care what problems you guys have between you!"

Laila....Shut up.

Red Skull's Limo

Kanna always had a hard time telling the difference between Rica wanting to talk to her...And when he just wanted to get in bed with her. Until she could figure out just what he wantded she gave a short nod.

"Of course..." she said quietly. She didn't want to make Red Skull think anything strange was going on...

Abandoned Building

"But...He's a kid. He should be doing kids stuff, not being forced away from home..." Joyce said quietly, watching as her father suddenly had an epiphany. "Who?"


Hawkins' House

Melanie blinked, suddenly shaking her head "A-Actually I haven't told anyone yet...I was waiting for the perfect time to tell Galv...I haven't really come across one yet...Though I did tell Blake."

She then moved forward, grabbing the other girl's arms. "Promise you won't tell yet okay? I want to be able to do it....But right now I think Galv's too stressed. I don't want him to worry about me"

Vire Residence

"Find her?" Adrianna said, calming down a bit "Where would we start? Apparently she doesn't want to be found..."

She was seriously considering this.

Cab

Soon enough the cab rounded a corner and stopped out in front of Crystal's apartment.

Kojiro scoffed and shot a dark glare at Laila as she spoke up.

“You DARE to interrupt us, American? This is a conversation between the Emperor’s sons, and not meant for the ears of ones so unworthy.” Kojiro spat.

Musashi glared back at his elder brother. “Shut up! Laila may not be royalty, but she’s a hellova nicer person than you are. What the hell happened to you, Koji? You’ve changed so much…”

Kojiro’s eyes narrowed dangerously. “I have changed because unlike you, I have seen the reality of the world. You are too naïve, brother. And when you left Japan… you realize the problems you made for me. How could you?”

Musashi gulped. “… I did what I thought was right. So did Nanami.”

Kojiro seemed… extremely annoyed now. “You do not want to go there, brother.”

“Koji, I’m sorry about what happened… but this is bigger than you and I. This is about preventing a serious mistake. Japan and the United States should not be enemies… stopping a possible war is worth any sacrifice…” Musashi tried to explain.

“You are so naïve. War is coming. And when the dust settles, Father shall rule everything.”

[Red Skull’s Limo]

Of course, Rica wanted to talk to Kanna… while he was in bed with her.

It’s multitasking. For creepers.

[Cab]

As the cab stopped, Sama gently woke Crystal up, after he paid the driver.

“We’re here.” He said, kissing her softly.

Didymus was observing the scene unfolding between the two Japanese leaders with interest, and looking for any potential ambushes.

"Stand by..." he said to Jenny. "...as much as I'd like to get involved here...this is kind of an internal Japanese affair. Barring extreme circumstances, interfering could do more harm than good..." he said.

He still was looking around warily, fingering his revolver...

Littlelip Theater

Diana paused, looking over the note.

"I...I don't know, exactly. I do value my family highly...it's not the Axis powers, if that's what you're thinking..." she said.

-Red Skull's Limo-

“...When you're done talking to Rica, I would like to continue our conversation from last night, as well,” Samuel spoke up, after a moment.

-Abandoned Building-

“Ethan...” Galv said, “Aaron and Adrianna's dad...He said he had to learn to control his power. It's a different ability...but the same concept...learning control. He might be able to help...”

-Hawkins' House-

Erin frowned, then nodded, “Alright...I won't tell anyone...But I hope you tell Galv soon. I'm sure he'll be excited.”

Erin was probably going to tell Jason as soon as she got home. It wouldn't be a conscious decision on her part, just something she'd do.

-Vire Residence-

“Did you know I trained to be a cop?” Maize asked, “I wanted to use my strength for good. But...they said I couldn't join. But I can help you find your mom. Least I could do for my little sister.”

-Outside Japanese Restaurant-

Jenny nodded to Didymus, “It looks like they're going to start a fight though...what do we do if they do start one?”

"What do we do if they start a fight?" Didymus said. "Well, that really depends. If they just start slashing at each other, then we may have no choice but to let them cut each other into ribbons. Hey, maybe the loss of a prince will set Japan's war effort back. Either way, it would be a mistake to get involved, that could create an international incident, at least, depending on what we did..."

"...if they actually start harming others, though...or that's when...well, let's just say I might be getting a little practice for the near future..."

“Musashi... I have trained longer than you, I am more skilled than you and my katana has a far greater reach than that tantō. If you come at me with that blade, then this land of arrogance will be the site of your death.” Kojiro sneered.

Musashi paused. He knew that everything his brother just said was true. Kojiro was famous for his prowess with a blade back home. He was considered one of the best warriors the Emperor had ever seen. Musashi only knew one person who could defeat Kojiro with ease... and unfortunately, Nanami was not here.

It was a tense moment. Musashi did not want to lose. He had to hold onto hope for his mission – for his dream – even when it looked like it was doomed. He was also worried that if he fell here, Laila would be killed too.

“... Koji. Back off.”

A sharp voice spoke out, and Nanami jumped down from the ceiling of the Japanese restaurant. She landed between Musashi and Kojiro, holding a shuriken in her hand.

Musashi paled and he actually shook from his spot. The boy was suddenly EXTREMELY nervous. He actually looked more worried to see Nanami than he did Kojiro.

“... You would stand with the traitor? Against me?” Kojiro asked, his voice sounding hurt.

Nanami's face remained as solid as stone. “I've told you before... nothing is more important than my duty. I am sworn to protect the Prince. My life for his.”

That seemed to only make Kojiro madder. His face twisted and he looked as if he had gone beyond anger and reached a burning rage. “As the elder Prince, I release you of your duty. He is a traitor. If you are to threaten someone, it should be him!”

Nanami shook her head. “My clan has protected the imperial family since the dawning of your Empire. Even the Emperor himself may not absolve me of my duty.”

She paused, and her voice became less cold. “Go home, Koji. I know you're angry... but Musashi must do what he believes is right, and I must defend him while he does it.”

Kojiro let out a sigh. Suddenly, his anger seemed to disappear... his face was blank. “... Your devotion to your duty is commendable... but you cannot simply ignore your past... you cannot ignore our past.”

Nanami's face was as stone cold as ever. “I'll say it again: Go home, Koji.”

“I cannot do that... beloved.” Kojiro shook his head. Then, Kojiro gripped the handle of his sword and charged forward. As he ran, he drew the blade of his katana and jumped towards Musashi, intent on bringing the blade down hard. Between having the heavier, longer blade and his jump attack, Kojiro most certainly would have shattered Musashi's guard.

However, Nanami's hand darted out and something flew from her grasp. A small iron shuriken struck Kojiro in his right eye, causing him to drop his sword and fall to one knee in pain.

“Graaaaah!” Kojiro shouted out in pain as he clutched his now blood-soaked face. “How could you!?”

“I warned you.” Nanami hissed back. “Musashi. Laila. Go around the side of the restaurant. There's a red convertible. Get in and drive back to the safehouse. Do NOT argue with me.”

Musashi stared in mute shock for a moment at what had just transpired, but he nodded and grabbed Laila's hand, pulling her towards the restaurant. “Come on! We have to go!”

"OOOhhh yeah, that was a great meal! Marco doesn't know what he missed!" Train Heartnet said to himself, upon leaving the restaurant, before noticing Musashi pulling Laila to the other side of the restaurant.

"Oh! Hey Table Boy and Manners Girl! Ya have a great dinner too?"

Laila may have been headstrong and stubborn, but she had also learned when to bite her tongue in dangerous situations. The girl stood back while the two brothers exchanged words (and almost blows) before being pulled off to a car because Nanami decided to intervene.

"Okay, what the hell was that?!" She couldn't help but to exclaim as they entered the car.


"Oh! Hey Table Boy and Manners Girl! Ya have a great dinner too?"


Laila jumped, looking over her shoulder "N-Not quite great"

Red Skull's Limo

Kanna then looked over to Samuel, giving a slight nod. "Of course"

The felt weird accepting both their offers (mostly because the was pretty sure neither of them wanted to talk) but she did none-the-less. Quickly the woman looked down into her powder compact and patting her nose.

Abandoned Building

Joyce supposed that Ethan was a better choice than some random person...Though the girl didn't know too much about her grandmother's suitors she did know the man was nice.

Joyce looked down at Blake. "W-What do you think about that?"

Hawkins' House-

"Uh...Of course" Melanie said with a smile, unconsciously placing a hand over her flat belly. "Though I must admit i'm also a bit worried about having to raise another child, if all of this war stuff is true...It's not the best environment for a baby..."

Cab

Crystal mumbled something, giving a little groan as she rubbed her eyes. "Uggh, shortest nap ever" she mumbled pathetically

Musashi was breathing hard. This was bad… This was just about the worst thing that could have happened.

“That… that was my older brother…” Musashi stammered. He looked over towards Train and rubbed the back of his neck. “Things… not good… really, really not good…”

Musashi would have to explain to Laila, but right now things were… complicated.

[Crystal’s Apartment]

Sama gave a little smile. “Sorry about that… but we’re here.”

He paid the cab driver and then helped her out of the cab. They were in front of her building.

[Red Skull’s Limo]

Rica gave a grin to Kanna and just sat back, waiting.

Soon enough, the Limo pulled up in front of a sketch looking apartment building and Red Skull stepped out.

“I will see you all tomorrow.” Skull turned and headed towards the building, and the driver had orders to take them wherever Kanna wanted them to go.

“Ethan's had to deal with shadow stuff too...your aunt, Adrianna, has shadow powers too...” Galv added.

Blake paused, then nodded, “Okay...I just want to get stronger so I don't hurt anyone...”

-Hawkins' House-

“Oh, I'm sure it'll be fine,” Erin smiled, “Blake's far too young to be drafted, and even if they called Galv up, he can shoot lightning at the bad guys!”

She thought she was being supportive. She really did.

-Vire Residence-

“Did you know I trained to be a cop?” Maize asked, “I wanted to use my strength for good. But...they said I couldn't join. But I can help you find your mom. Least I could do for my little sister.”

She grinned at Lalia, nodding, “So what do you say? Will you accept my help?”

-Outside Japanese Restaurant-

Jenny frowned, then shook her head, “If one of the Princes dies on American soil, they're going to blame us...And as a medical professional, I can't let someone bleed to death in front of me, enemy or otherwise.”

She sighed, producing a small first aid kit, then approached Kojiro carefully, holding her hands up to show she wasn't armed.

“I'm a nurse, I can help you,” she said calmly, “I've had extensive experience with combat wounds, let me help...”

As Jenny approached, Kojiro immediately jumped to his feet and held his sword in front of him. His right eye was clearly missing and his face was covered in blood.

“… If you will treat my wound, do so. But know three things. I will not be drugged. If I believe you are intending to do me harm, I will kill you. And whatever help you give me, does not change anything between our nations.” Kojiro said in a remarkably calm voice for someone who had just been stabbed in the face by Nanami.

Didymus nodded as Jenny spoke.

"Yes, that's probably for the best." He simply stood by as Jenny approached the wounded man.

“… If you will treat my wound, do so. But know three things. I will not be drugged. If I believe you are intending to do me harm, I will kill you. And whatever help you give me, does not change anything between our nations.”

"Truly? At any rate, we offer you this treatment as a proper gesture of goodwill...it would be a shame if we came to regret it later."

".....Fine." Joyce said quietly , taking her brother's hand with her good arm and looking up at her father. "But i'm going with you to make sure that Blake is okay..."

She didn't look like she was taking no for an answer.

Hawkins' House

Melanie gave a nervous laugh, gripping her shirt and looking down "Let's just hope it doesn't come to that" she said with a smile. "I'd rather not have to do all of this alone"

Vire Residence

"Fine then..." Adrianna finally answered, standing back up and heading to her window. "We'll go back through here"

Because she wasn't sure she wanted to see her dad again right now.


Outside Japanese Restaurant

"Hey calm down, breeeathe" Laila stated, moving in front of Musashi and grabbing his hands for a moment. "There's no use in freaking out, no matter how crazy he seems to be-no offense of course"

She then looked to the red car "So...Do I get to drive?"

Why is it suspicious that Laila knows how to drive?

Crystal’s Apartment

Crystal gave a yawn and followed the young man into the building, heading in quietly. "You know, if you're gonna stay you'll have to sleep in the living room. It's only proper after all" she explained, yawning all the while.

A moment of fumbling for her keys they entered, the girl looking around at the strewn papers and other odds and ends.

"Ugggh this place is a mess"

Red Skull’s Limo

"East 42nd street" Kanna said to the driver, intending on heading back to her room to clean up...The night was young after all and she had some 'important talks' to have with Rica and Samuel....

“Your regrets are your concern, not mine.” Kojiro spat. It was hard to tell if he was just being rude, or if he was just in a bad mood from the loss of his eye.

Probably a little bit of both.

[…]

Musashi tried to calm down – but it wasn’t that easy. He looked to Laila and shook his head.

“I’m sorry, I just… this is really bad… Nanami just attacked by brother… my dad sent my brother to kill me… this… oh…” Musashi was still freaking out. He nodded to Laila.

“Y-You should drive… I don’t think I can…”

[Red Skull’s Limo]

It did not take long for the Limo to speed off to Kanna’s destination. Red Skull was now using a phone built into the car to communicate with some of his… contacts.

“Ya… Ya… Herr Fuhrer, everything proceeds.”

Yeeeeeah… by ‘contacts’ I mean the only person more effed up than him.

Rica gave a little grin and looked over to Kanna. He was going to have to play this carefully to get any useful information out of her.

[Crystal’s Apartment]

Sama gave a little chuckle, remembering the last time they had spent the night together, but he nodded and kissed her cheek.

“That’s fine with me. And this? A mess? You saw my place… this is practically spotless by comparison.”
