How to Raise an Idiot Mafia Boss (RP) [4X4]

[Nora Valkyrie 461]

"You guys..." Yui looked as her friends tried to defend her, something that had never happened before. She wasn't able to tell Steve's emotions which scared her the most. The fear of him hurting her or any of them...it made her shake. Instead she heard a sigh release. 

"The mask is of no importance, but your cover on the streets just became one step harder." Steve replied. He began to walk towards the door, "Give Katarina to the science man in the morning." 

"What?" Yui turned around to face him "But I thought Pro-" 

"He changed his mind. Oh and make sure to leave the dress here and get back home. Your Mother's awfully worried." 

"How does he know that?..." However he just left before she could say anything else. Yui couldn't tell, but it was like something was bothering him...

"Alright, let's get some sleep. I've had enough with the rich bas*ards today." Kataa said then looked at Lovi, "Er sorry, not including you." 

"I'll go get my normal clothes...." Yui sighed when she noticed the blonde hair girl looking intensely at her. Yui recalled her name, Katarina.... She stared intensely at Yui giving Yui the impression that she was studying her. It gave the pinkette a shiver. She quickly adverted her violet eyes and ran to the bathroom. 

 

"What's up with her?" Kataa asked making himself a cup of coffee without asking Antonio. 

"She had a eventful day." Charles answered. Taking the coffee cup Kataa was about to unceasingly use. 

"With what? Playing Cinderella with some rich man who just thought she was cute?" 

"Seems you haven't reached that step yet." 

"What?" Kataa asked the old man. 

Charles just smiled, "You'll understand one day."

The thief's eyes lowered, "You don't understand me...." 

"That is true, but I don't think you understand yourself." 

Kataa let out a small growl, "I'm going home." He walked out the door only leaving Charles with a sigh. 

 

Yui was putting her Poor clothes back on thinking of the flashback she had experienced earlier. So someone was nice to her once before... Yui undid the bun in her hair, but only left her long hair down, fearing Katarina would know who she was if she did her signature pigtails. She put the beautiful dress back in the bag, disappointment she had to let it go. Yui walked out, "Goodnight everyone, see you tomorrow." She looked over at the Royal Pirn leader giving her a small, "Goodnight..." Yui then left walking in the dark streets of the night. 

 

Charles looked over at Antonio, "Are you going to leave her here?" He pointed to the girl he was holding.

I felt Fiore's aggressive words pierce my back. I stopped walking. The guards tensing once again. "Excuse Oro. Oro forgot something." My face was parallel to the ground, but I tilted it up a bit. The guards to tense to react to my unpredictable behavior. I turned around flipping my head back up with a smile. A smile that hid always hid my internal thoughts. I calmly walked over to Fiore. I stood about 3 steps away from him. "People who die. All have a reason to die. Oro is a murder who has morals, friend. Oro isn't a threat. Oro is only a mere watcher. Oro's fun is in watching not in playing. And Oro has been watching." My hands were cuffed behind my back. I hopped and moved my hands to be in front of me. I changed my tone of voice, "I know you want to kill me." I held his hand with a gun putting his hands both on the gun. Putting his hand on the trigger, putting the safety off. And lifted to my forehead. "Kill me." I stared through his eyes then changed my gaze to a smile. I was ready to die. I always was. "I'm asking for a bullet in my forehead, friend."

[King Demise 2,359]

K stopped listen to Oro after it said it didn't have a gender. (Master that thing is really annoying) Luci said in a disgusted voice. (Well there's never a shortage of interesting people around here) K sighed. "Fiore get away from that thing. Also get the intruder to the special asylum and have it heavily drugged." K looked at the intruder. "Oro was it? We'll get you the help you need, probably" K turned the katana back into his cane. "Also someone clean this mess up."

 

"Do I really have to spend a night in this dump?" Katarina complained while looking at the girl Yui. (By tomorrow I should be strong enough to them easily.) (Master clam down, it seems they just want to talk. Even if they did use forceful methods.) "Hey Toni get me something to drink and the biggest bed you have." Katarina voiced her demands in an arrogant tone.

[Stardustblade358 806]

(I'll draw a sketch of the cafe and how it looks with all of its floors so it doesn't get as confusing)

 

"None taken." Lovi said to Kataa as she waved her hand. She watched everyone go on as it was late and time to go home. Charles question of where they would be holding Katarina. "Well here seems like the most possible place. I could take her back to my place but the guards will be looking all over the rich district." Lovi said as she stuck out her tongue playfully. "It is fine. I assure you that until she is ready to be picked up, I will make sure to make her stay as comfortable and as safe as possible." Antonio said cheerfully as he turned to Katarina. "Come along, I have a perfect place where you can rest for the night." Lovi yawned. "I'm heading home! I'll see you losers in the morning!" Lovi said as she walked away, stepping out and driving home before her parents or servants even noticed she was ever gone. Antonio hummed at Charles. "You can stay over for the night if you want, Charles. The second floor living room has a futon you can sleep in. You however, milady, this way." Antonio said, leading her up the spiral staircase up the second floor where the apartment was. He led her to the only bedroom there, Antonio's. It had wooden floors, a simple wooden bed with an end table, a closet with clothing and other furniture, including some personal objects, including a pictures of Antonio's time in the academy and a collection of turtle themed things. There was only one window, and it could not be opened, and had bars on them, which was normal for the type of neighborhood they lived in. "I hope this suits you for the night! It's not five stars but it's the best we have in this building. Be right back, I'll bring you something to drink." Antonio assured. A few minutes later he brought over a glass of cold water, handing it to Katarina. "If you need anything else, just holler. I'm not to far off. Until then, sleep well, milady." Antonio said, his smile never wavering as he turned and walked out, closing the door behind him as he activated the door's locks.

 

Fiore was this close to just shooting Oro right in the head. If it weren't for K to have ordered otherwise. Fiore glared at the guards, who quickly straightened up. "You heard K. Clean the place up and leave nothing behind! We're escorting this kid to the Asylum!" Fiore began to bark around orders, soldiers running around to follow the orders. Soon enough some guards brought up an armored car to drive Oro to the asylum. Fiore turned to K. "I'm going to escort the intruder to the asylum and be back as quick as I can. Text me or call me if anything, alright? Besides, I think you should talk to Eren. He might have some clues of what exactly happened. He was in charge of the main security and the princess' arrival after all." Fiore said with a smile. He turned, walking Oro and pushing him into the back of the armored car and sitting inside with him. "Lets go, someone call ahead to prepare a room for him." Fiore ordered as he closed the door, the guards beginning to drive off. Fiore crossed his arms and stared at Oro. "If you were watching, then who was the performer?"

So i did maps

Aw this was getting good... I saw Fiore's finger about to pull the trigger when party pooper Lord K told his to stop. I sighed. An asylum? Wow how rude. I'm not insane. I sat in the car. Looking at my cuffs in annoyance these things were getting on my nerves. I looked at Fiore. "I hope you don't mind that I'll take these cuffs-" The cuffs around my wrist slid off like butter. "Off. I don't like the feeling of my wrists suffocating." I stretched my arms out, "Don't worry I won't do anything. I have no reason to." I heard Fiore's comment. "Well friend. Does and audience read the script to the actors?" I smiled placing my elbow on the (the...side of the car thingy...idk whats it called) resting my chin on my palm. "If you want information, you'll have to trade with information." I grinned again. My situation was grim. But I was enjoying myself. Sure these people think I'm insane. I'm just tired. Tired of this boring life.

[Nora Valkyrie 461]

Yui was holding a glass of warm seahorse milk her Mom had brought her. Odd ehough, her Mom hadn't really asked her of her whereabouts, but instead just gave Yui comfort before going to bed. Yui took it that she had a long day... The pinkette let out a long old sigh gazing at her own complection in her so-called mirror. "I hope Oro's ok...Why? Why did he have to stay? What could the Professor possibky want with it staying there?" She rubbed her eyes, "I'm getting tired...I do hope that at least Oro's ok..." She went to sleep. 

 

Charles gave a small smile to the two, or well 3 youngsters when Antonio offered him a small place to stay. "I'm good Antonio. I'm afriad once your use to the outside life you stick with it always. If I chose to stay here I might loose that connection." And with that Charles had walked out the doors waving a bye. 

 

Steve walked in the old banged up doors that creaked along the way. A pile of papers there, a pile of blue prints thrown there, at least 200 coffee cups smashed, and electrical sparks flickering everywhere. He stepped over past the junk pile of failed machinery and plopped himself on the torn-down sofa that most likely came from an eariler time. "Long day?" The crazy old coot asked typing away on his small computer barely visible to read from the dust that piled. 

"You do realize Oro got kidnapped, don't you?" 

"Yes, yes. But don't worry about the gender-less being. Oro can handle itself." 

"You know Yui Sky lost her mask in during the chaos. There's a chance they might discover her." 

"Aw well, brings the more fun." 

"Your brain been in some acid recently?" 

"What I fear is what's going on in Mrs. Sky's brain!" 

"What do you mean?" 

"Her brain waves were going haywire earlier." 

"Do you think-" 

"Yes, it seems she has regained part of her memory. Oh dear..." 

"What should we do then?" 

"Nothing, we let the girl cherish what she found. Besides are little tatter-tots got to prepare themselves for tomorrow!" 

"Oh yay...." 

 

You Have Received A Message!  

 

"It's Rescue Mission Time! That's right, tonight at 9pm, you shall be saving Oro from the Capital. It's best to group up and prepare yourself by 8pm. As for what you day earlier in the day is up to you! Oh, but please don't forget to drop off Katarina with the brains of the group."

Katarina drank the glass of water but found it impossible to sleep. (This bed is so uncomfortable) She thought as she laid there.

 

(Master since the party was a failure, you're going to punish glasses right?) Luci asked. (Something like that would have to come after everything is resolved. Also we have to find the princess.) K sighed. "Where is Eren?" K asked one of the guards. After being directed to where his friend was. "Eren what transpired here?"

[Stardustblade358 806]

Fiore scoffed. "Trade information? Well here's some information for you; my name is Fiore, and I'm K's best friend and his loyal guard, and you're going to be locked up until you decide to talk in actual words instead of riddles." Fiore growled. They not only had this kid who was playing mental games with them, they had the princess of another city kidnapped and somewhere around this city, either safe and sound or already dead for all they knew. Wonderful. They finally reached the hospital and they walked out, around 8 other guards escorting both Oro and Fiore to the prepared room. It was the same as if in one of those movies, it didn't have any windows, it was just a white room filled with pillows and softened walls with a chair right in the middle. "Restrain him." Fiore ordered, and soon they wrapped a restraint jacket on Oro before leaving the two alone in the locked up room. "You will stay here until you speak. You won't be allowed to eat, to drink, to do anything unless you are willing to answer our questions with actual answers instead of riddles." Fiore said as he took a seat, elegantly relaxing back as he was still wearing his suit. "Don't you worry about me having things to do. I can wait...We have all the time in the world to talk of whatever you want. I'm sure you will answer...eventually." Fiore assured.

 

...

 

The text sprung up by the next morning, to which Antonio was already up and getting ready for the day. "With the brains of the group? Please tell me someone's going to come along and pick her up? I wasn't expecting an overnight stay as it was." Antonio murmured, sighing as he served up some breakfast on a platter. Fried eggs with toast and some orange juice and water along with some yogurt on the side; surely nothing compared to royalty and their food, but it was something. He hummed, walking up and over to the room. He knocked on the door. "Breakfast." He said, walking in and setting the tray down on the coffee table. "Hopefully it will be good enough." Antonio said smiling as he backed away and closed the door again with a lock. He just hoped that this wouldn't end up having her throw a tantrum.

[SolarFlare12 226]

​The royal guard? Huh. I guess that's new information. But it was only a little drip that didn't satisfy my thirst. The walk to the asylum was quiet. I tilted my head down covering the sight of my observing eyes. I looked at all the details, we went down a few stairs, about 10. No windows. Guards everywhere. Fun. Once we reached the room I smelled the air. The air smelled of confinement and  disease. The asylum was practically home sweet home. It wasn't like I never been in one before, I know how the system works. Just looking at the guard's clothes I could see their shifts, and patrols. I remembered how people thought I was insane, I just laughed. I've broken out of everything I got into. This is no challenge... I saw all the weaknesses. I walked into the room and sat comfortably in the chair. I sat there and smiled, "I don't appreciate being labeled as 'insane'. Specially since you have no real information about me. But if you want to talk then talk. There are no females here, so males first." 

 

Done! I was done! A little bit for everyone. Except Oro. Well because I didn't know what 'it' fought with. So I just didn't make anything. It was morning. Was it? I checked my phone and saw the text. 'The brains of the group?' Is he referring to me? Must be, judging by how everyone appears. I'm the only one with the most knowledge. Well knowledge pertaining to science and math. I grabbed the creations I made and put them carefully into a few cases. I went up the elevator not bumping into anyone, and got into my car. Setting my destination to the cafe...

"I have no school today! Yayyy!!!" Yui Smith cheered walking around the Poor District with nothing to do. Her outside character was cheerful, while her inside....was a nervous reck. "So were saving Oro tonight...man I hope everything goes ok..." Yui walked around humming the tune of the song she heard last night. Her pink pigtails jumping up and down with the rythem she stepped. "I wonder how Momo-Chan and Shimon-Kun are doing today...I actually have yet to really talk to Shimon now that I think about it... Hey! I have time to kill! Maybe I can go check on Shimon and see how he's doing. But where exactly does he live?" She walked some more intill a idea reached her head causing her to snap her fingers, "I know! I'll go to the Cafe and see is maybe Antonio knows." With that she began to run off, "Isn't that girl to be delivered to Mamoru anyway?" 

 

The cafe's doors slid open welcoming Yui to another day at the busy Cafe. She walked past the fangirls straight to the Bar where she saw Antonio's brothers working. She waved her hand at one of them, "Uh...excuse me can I see Antonio?" She then quietly thought to herself, "I wonder how that blonde hair girl is doing?"

 

When the party had ended (in a disaster) Eren had strolled outside feeling the cold breeze for possibly the last time in his life. "I knew I should of smoke when I had the chance." He sighed walking into the forest listening to the fire of gunshots. He walked around some more in-till he heard a voice. 

"Yeah, Pinky and the others have caught her. Their making a escape. Are you sure you want to go through with this?" 

Pinky? Well the only other time he had spotted that color was when he yelled at K's little friend. Eren glanced but he was unable to see who was talking to who. Fearing he would be spotted he stood still simply listening in. "Alright....Well I'll go meet with the others. Good luck Oro..." 

Oro was it? And with that he heard 2 pairs of feet dash off in different directions. A smile formed on his face, he may have just found some info that would save his butt. 

 

Eren woke up in his black pjs with a cup of coffee in his hand. He had heard they captured Oro last night who deem to be the armored man. This led Eren on that Oro was not working alone. He sat in his chair seeing K walk in, "Ah you made it. How did the night go besides the chaos that irrupted later. When he waited for a response he sighed, "Even though you likely view my work last night uncharming, I must say I have some interesting news for you. It seems Oro does now work alone, he has other with him. And those others have the princess..." Just then the word 'Pinky' entered his mind. "Speaking of princess, I heard you picked up a mask that belonged to the girl you danced with last night. Would you care if I see it?" He held out his hand. If his hunch was correct, he would just need a DNA sample from the mask and strand of hair Fiore had found earlier. Then, just then, maybe Fiore and him would have some answers.

[SolarFlare12 226]

The drive was like the usual. Calm, quiet, and a lot of attention. Women and mostly men stared at my sliver vehicle. Staring mostly in disgust that hid the jealousy within them. It only bothered me because I was one of them. I was brought up from the lower class and my parents worked for my education which I excelled at. Scholarships pushed my family up the classes. People hated me for my intellect, which I never noticed until I was older. But people in the rich class also despised me. So I began not to care. My job was to experiment. To observe, question, and then find something about it. I observed other people, I questioned them, I tested them, and I found something. That I should just stick to my job. But now... Now... What do I do about this group? What will is find... My eyes refocused on the road and I found myself passing the cafe... I tuned around and parked locking my car and got out, carrying one of the cases. And walking in, seeing the lady. "Oh Miss. Smith. You're here." 

 

I woke up again, feeling better still groggy though. The room felt a bit colder until the door opened and a warm breeze pushed out the chilly air. It was my mother she walked in with a bowl with oven mittens. The ones I had gotten her on her birthday. "Oh you're up. Good I have some chicken noodle soup for you."
"Thanks mom... Is money short?" I asked as she approached me.

"No. Not at all, we still have 3 reserves." She smiled warmly.

I breathed out, relieved. "Okay good."

"Please don't overwork yourself. I'm sorry I can't do anything..." She placed the bowl on the nightstand, almost missing.

"Mom... " I had a worried look. Mom had skewed vision. She had lost an eye and most of the vision in her other eye. All because of a work accident. She took mainly housekeeper jobs when I was young. I just sat home waiting for her. They told me she, I quote 'tripped and fell on the wine cabinet'. But I remembered her having bruises on her body as well as cuts. I got them back in a game of poker the next day. They played dirty using cards from another deck in their pockets. But I still won. But I never got the money that could've saved my mother's eyes... 

"Come on now, your soup will get cold."
She was still smiling," Okay mom..." I took the bowl and began sipping in guilt.

Fiore held his head. This was going to be a long day. He would need a shower after this. "You will start by telling me what the hell were you thinking of attacking the royal palace and the capital of this place?! Along with the kidnap of the princess, surely you know more than what you're letting off. Have you any idea how dangerous this is?! We might end up having to attack the other city and killing people unnecessarily thanks to this stupid stunt!" Fiore yelled. He was young, but he knew the severity of the situation. "I don't care who you are, your gender, if you're mentally sane or not, I just need you to tell me where is the princess and who is the third party that is messing things up!" Fiore yelled as he stomped his foot angrily. These two were practically opposites, Oro being more calm and collected despite the situation, with Fiore quick tempered and easily angered. "Not only have you made a direct threat to K, you've made a threat against a prominent royal figure! If you tell us names, locations, anything at all, I can assure you that they won't be killed, just incarcerated for the rest of their lives. But at least they'll live!"

 

...

 

One of Antonio's brothers looked up for the girl asking for Antonio. "Hey, can someone get Antonio? Someone's asking for him?" He asked. "I'll get it!" The other said. They were all from ages of 16 to 21, some looking so alike that it was hard to tell who was who, the most notable feature being the green eyes that they all shared with their big brother. "Antonio, there's a girl asking for you!" "What color is her hair?" "Pink!" "I'll be right there!" Soon enough the famous Antonio walked down, smiling a smile that made boys and girls swoon at the sight. He walked over to Yui. "Morning. I'm guessing you don't have school today."

[SolarFlare12 226]

I let my gaze fall to the floor, sighing my fear away then staring into the eyes of the man questioning me. Clearly he has many worries. I did too. But I handled them differently... "They were thinking, 'I don't want to die.'" I grinder my teeth a little before speaking again. "They don't know whats going on. I don't know whats going on! You want answers and I want answers. I will help you. But in return 'they' have to live." I glared, I was serious. Neutral, it was where I stood. The place I belonged. I didn't know these people, and for sure I didn't get the greatest impression of them. But. I know they don't deserve to die. I need to stop this. I don't know who this 'Professor' is... but I... I hate this game of chess. 

 

Before Miss. Smith said anything, Antonio had came downstairs. I just stayed quiet incase Miss. Smith had anything to say. The Professor told me to take in the leader. But why me? And what were we going to go with this hostage... Too many questions and not many options I have for questioning. I would just have to wait for the next text from the Professor...

[Nora Valkyrie 461]

Yui sat down swishing her movable bar seat left and right while waiting for the brothers to get Antonio. Once he came all the fangirls squeezed next to her with hearts in their eyes and sighing a long dreamy sigh. If it weren't for her happiness Yui would of felt weird but she just giggled a little to herself. When Antonio came to talk to her, all the fangirls glared back at her jealous that their dream man had decided to talk to her. For once in her life, Yui ignored them smiling back at Antonio, "Yep! Hey, I was wondering if you might know where Shimon-Kun lives? I would like to see him before the 'thing' tonight. Oh and how's that gi-" Yui glanced at the fangirls listening to her every word, "How's that German Shepherd of yours doing?" She then caught glance of a familar lab guy, "Oh Momo! What's up? She gave another smile wondering if he ate their training pie or not.

 

Meanwhile a message was solely delivered to Mamoru on his phone...

 

"Dear Mamoru, Remember not to have a farty brain! I called you the 'brains' for a reason!....Or really I just didn't want to do the work myself- ANYWAYS, please only take Katarina of Royal Pirn back to your office. I'm afraid that girl has a dark secret with her that may or may not help us as a group! Your job is to simply pressure her to spilling the beans. Don't feed her even, but make sure she doesn't die. We wouldn't want another nation on our tails 030 Usually we would have Oro do this job, but well...Anyways! Hope you do well and have a very very Very nice day!" 

 

From, P

[King Demise 2,359]

Katarina quietly ate the food that was left for her. (Master are you sure that's safe?) (Its safe. That commoner can make some decent food.)

 

K thought a bit before answering Eren's question. (Well I finally learned a darkness type spell during that chaos) "The party was one of the better ones I have experienced." K slightly smiled remembering his dance with Mary. "I've heard the princess' guards were reluctant in contracting Royal Pirn on her disappearance. Silence all of her guards and tell Royal Pirn they were killed during the attack." K opened his jacket and put his arm on the inside and pulled out the mask. K pulled the mask out of a closed space using a darkness type spell. "Here you go" K said as he handed over the mask.

[Stardustblade358 806]

Antonio hummed. "I have no idea where Shimon lives, sorry." Antonio said, shaking his head. However, he was quick to catch on what she meant by German Shepard. "Oh she's doing fine! She's eating upstairs." Antonio explained, looking over at Momo. "Oh you must be the trainer! Thank you for coming over! She has a really bad potty training problem, I was hoping you could help me out with it!" Antonio said cheerfully, taking Yui's and Momo's hands, dragging them upstairs. "Come on, the puppy is upstairs!" Antonio chimed, dragging Yui and Momo up the side stairs, leaving the busy cafe as they entered the calm apartment complex. He let go of their hands and looked over at Momo rather seriously. "She is in my room. I don't know how willingly she is going to go. But I will ask you to take her out through the back door." Antonio said as he pointed over at his room's door. "She should be eating breakfast."

 

...

 

Fiore glared. "I'm getting tired of your incompetence." Fiore hissed. However, it appeared that whoever this kid was, he wasn't neither the leader or had any idea of what orders he was following. He was simply a blind sheep following orders from the farmer. "If you are being forced to do this kind of thing, you can just tell us and we will protect you and your friends from whatever anarchy group that is forcing you to do these kind of acts. We only want what is best for the people of this city, why do you think we are worried about the whole princess ordeal? If we get into a war, more people will end up dying for something that could be avoided by bringing the princess back." Fiore explained, offering his hand. "Just give us any information of who are these people forcing you to do this, and we will make sure to help you out. Anything for the sake of the city and its citizens."

[SolarFlare12 226]

His offer did seem sincere... However rule one is to not trust anyone. But... I need to find this 'Professor'... I'lll take things into my own hands... No one needs to know. I looked around checking just in case. I had no idea how much coverage this man had. He seemed to know everything... And that man...with the deep voice. He seemed to appear at all the right places... I grit my teeth again, "I'll help you find the princess. However I don't know where they've taken her. I just know they have her. And as for this 'leader' all I've gotten. Are these 'texts'. He she it calls themself the 'Professor' along with a silly name of Fluffalluffikins III. Seems like he has a partner in crime named 'Steve'. That's all I know." I looked at the offered hand. And laughed looking at my arms. "I can't really shake your hand with my arms bounded. Elbow will have to do." I stood up walked over and gently placed my elbow against his palm and maneuvered my elbow to simulate a 'shaking of hands' motion. 

 

I was to take her to my office? Wouldn't that seem suspicious? I don't think that my co-workers would know who she is... The professor is out today too... A day off it seems. I sighed, How am I supposed to make her 'spill the beans?' A tactical approach would probably be- Wait... Oro would normally do this job? It made it sound like the Professor had a history with Oro. And where was Oro? I haven't seen it... It was worrying but I found myself being dragged upstairs by Antonio. Mostly I was confused about the trainer and german Shepard thing until we reached the door. It made me realize what they meant. "Okay..." I sighed taking out my phone and directed my car to the back of the cafe. Then entered the room, "Excuse me..."

[Nora Valkyrie 461]

Yui remembered that Mamoru had a job of taking the leader of Royal Pirn to where the Professor had asked. She wasn't requested to go... "I guess I should hurry off then. But maybe..." Feeling a tad of sympathy Yui opened the door peeking in to see Katarina eating on the bed. The blonde stared at her. Yui walked in, "Um...G-Good Morning...I just wanted to say..." Yui gulped her throat a little. Something about this girl...it just scared her a little, "I just wanted to say, I'm sorry things had to become this way. We don't want to hurt you...we just want some info. I hope you can understand..." Yui turned around to look at Mamoru and Antonio, "I'm going to go to 'his' house now. See you...um later..." She winked at them and dashed off. If they didn't know she knew one person who probably did. 

 

"Alright then, but not the Princess?" Eren asked receiving the mask and asking about the killings.Surely it would be a mater of hours before trouble would occur. They surely had to find her by then. "Oh and I see you've learned a little trick. Becoming powerful aren't you? It's a shame you have no one to rival it with." There was the Phantom Armor Man...but hadn't they caught him last night? "Have you talked with the Hostage yet?" Now he just needed the hair strand Fiore had and maybe just maybe they might find their foe. 

 

"I was right." Yui grinned to herself seeing Charles sitting at a park bench in the park. "Charles!" She called running over to him.

He looked over to her, "Hello Young Miss." 

"Hey!" She sat next him watching as folded paper into frogs, "You walk a lot...would you happen to know where Shimon lives?" 

"You know his name is Simon, and yes I happen to. However, can you show me how to fold a crane?"

Yui sighed taking the piece of paper and started to fold.

"Well I was able to make it move a little..." She wined watching her magical crane move a inch. 

"You'll get it one day." He picked it up and handed it to her. "As for Simon, he lives 2 streets down the fourth house on the right." 

"Wow! That's not actually far from mine or Kataa's!" She stood up prepared for another run. "Thank You. I'll see you tonight then! We have a It to rescue!" 

She ran off leaving Charles with his frogs, "Your a lot like Lila aren't you." That made him chuckle a tad.

Yui made it to Simon's house. She held her breath and knocked on the door. 

 

"You know Oro could reveal everything." Steve told his Boss watching the weird man draw all over a white board. 

"Yes yes yes it could. But would you believe it?" 

"Of course." Steve answered raising a eyebrow at the Professor. 

"Steve, had you ever read a book about two men who were fighting for the same thing? One gave the other all the information..." 

"And your point is?" 

"But the other didn't believe it for the information was too clear. It could reveal us but you must remember Oro does like it's riddles." 

"That's true..." 

"And besides we have a plan 202. The Princess will need to return home soon will she not?"

"Shimon." My mother entered my room again, the bowl of soup was gone. She must of taken it to the sink for me... 

"Yes, mom?" I looked up at her.

"Someone is knocking on the door..." She sounded frightened. 

"Oh... I'll deal with it." I walked to my closet and put on a black and red jacket and I was already wearing black pants. I then brought my handy dandy baseball bat. Once in awhile people would show up at my house. None of them were friendly. I hid myself well, but once in awhile someone would track me down. Mom can't tell if someone is good or bad... she can't even make out their face... I walked to the front door my mother following but stood behind the kitchen counter. I looked through the key hole. "Oh." I looked towards my mother, "Its just my friend."

She walked closer, "You made a friend?" 

"Yea...somewhat. Can you take the baseball bat back?"

"Yes." I handed her the baseball bat and she slowly walked back to my room.

I put on my 'poker face' before I opened the door, "Yui. What brings you here?"

[Nora Valkyrie 461]

Though she had to admit her school life was cruddy, there was one thing the pink pig tailed girl enjoyed every month. Receiving the latest issue of "Jack Thief" for her enjoyment during school! Jack Their was Yui Smith's all time favorite comic written and drawled by a man named Keval John who belonged to the Poor District. In fact she could recall the day she received her first issue...

"Gahhhh! Why am I so late!!!! Every Dang Time!!!!" Yui cried out-loud as she ran to her 7th Grade Class. She dashed off when she spotted a new wooden stand she had never seen before. It caused her to slow down, curious to see who this new Producer was and what he/she was selling. The stand had the words 'Keval's Comics' sloppily painted in yellow on the wood. Yui walked up to see a rather big man starring at her with a ink pen in hand. 

"Which you want?" He asked. 

"What is this?" She asked. 

"Didn't you read the sign? I'm Keval and these are my comics. Get one or go."

Yui looked down to see covers of characters with different comic names. She had to admit the drawings were amazing. Some were cute while others were....But one particular cover caught her eye. She picked it up, "Jack Thief..." She opened the comic and peeked a few, reading the dialogue here and there. However what really caught her eye was the Hero of the story. His name was Jack who's dream was to match up to Luipn the Thief by stealing as much as he could. Jack was a man in his early 20's who wore a black leather jacket with red underneath, with his dark hair and eyes. In other words, Yui had developed a comic crush on Keval's Jack. "How much for this?!" She asked with tiny hearts in her eyes. 

"Well that's volume three. You should likely read the first two volumes firs-" 

"Give me all of them! I'll take all the Jack volumes you got!" 

 

Yui became broke that day but it was all worth it to her. She reads every volume at least 11 times and awaits for the new volume to come. Sadly, due to Keval being apart of the Poor, he needed tons of money to make copies, thus his volumes wouldn't release for at least 2 months. However, that didn't mater to her. Even though it would always cost half the money she made from dilvery. She would buy the new volume. But why bring this up? Well...

The door had opened revealing Simon with a grin on his face. Yui's violet eyes widen, "He...looks just like Jack..." Whether she cared or not, Yui's face slowly became red but replied back, "H-Hi! Shimon! I've heard you've been sick lately so I came to check on you May I come in?"

(That's the color of fear) Katarina thought as she stared at Yui. "Take care Yui" She said in a soft voice as Yui left. (She reminds me of Kazuki when he was younger, at least when he was talking to me.) (Master you shouldn't look so proud when looking back on your misdeeds) Sam interjected. Katarina snapped her fingers, but nothing happened. (I'm getting real tired of waiting.) Katarina sighed.

 

"We need her alive for now. Not really, it happened during my confrontation with Oro. I hoped the mask wouldn't get destroyed and I learned it, just like that. Living things can't be stored, they die immediately." (I probably can't win against the other devil kings in a serious fight though) "I don't think that was the Phantom Armor Man, that thing was delusional so I sent him to the special asylum." 

[SolarFlare12 226]

I saw Yui staring a little bit at me, ​Was she observing me? But then her face became red, "Yea of course, you can come in... But are you sure you're not the one with a fever?" I placed my right hand on my forehead then my left hand on her forehead. "No... it doesn't seem like you have a fever... Come and sit down wherever you like, I'll make you some of my mom's special tea." I walked into the kitchen which was an open kitchen so my torso and up could be seen. I started getting the stuff to make tea, focused on my task. Then my mother walked into the room already placing the bat away. 

"Shimon will you introduce your friend to me?"

My head popped out of the kitchen cabinet. "Oh yea." I walked over to my mom gently leading her to Yui. She was a little close but she wanted to see my friend. "Yui this is my mother, Isabella. Mom this is Yui."  

"Nice to meet you sweetie." My mother smiled, it seemed like she really enjoyed Yui's presence.

Fiore hummed. The kid seem sincere in his words, so it appeared he wasn't lying. He shook his elbow instead, and turned to the door. "I will investigate these text messages further. I'm sure I can get Eren to try and track the messages down or something." Fiore hummed, looking over at Oro. "Be a good kid in the meanwhile though. This place is much nicer than the rest of the prisons around the capital." Fiore said as he walked over to the door, knocking on it. "It's Fiore. Open up." He ordered. Soon a guard opened the door, letting Fiore out before slamming the door back shut. He yawned, stretching playfully before pulling out his cellphone and beginning to text Eren and K. 'The prisoner Oro is working under orders of people of higher order, he's just following orders, it appears, as for who the leaders are he doesn't know them personally, he gains his orders from texts from someone calling himself professor Fluffalluffikins III and some guy named Steve. Not much to go on but the kid doesn't seem to know more beyond that. Maybe we can use his cellphone to track down whoever is sending the orders.' He sent it over to Eren and K before sighing. He didn't even sleep!

 

Antonio watched as Momo interacted with the princess and took her away. He felt somewhat relieved that the princess was out of the cafe. This place was not only connected to him, but his family. If he got in trouble within the cafe, it wouldn't just be him in trouble, it would be everyone...and he didn't want his brothers to take the fall for his actions. "Right. I better get working. I'll get ready later." Antonio sighed, walking downstairs as he pulled up an apron. "Sorry to keep you waiting! What would you like to have today?~"

 

Lovi waved her feet. The news of an attack on the party was all over, but not a single mention about the missing princess. As expected, the government did a great job in keeping that one detail to themselves. Now they had a mission to rescue Oro tonight after he was taken to the mental hospital. The days kept getting more dangerous by the passing moment. They should wear masks for this as well, at least she thought, as the guards could recognize them, and cameras could capture their faces.

I sighed, out of relief and fear. I was still stuck here. I couldn't handle sitting around doing nothing. Knowing that I was here, most likely they'll try breaking me out... And what is the most stereotypical break out time? Night. They're going to come here at night time... They don't know where I am in here. They might leave some evidence of themselves... Yui already did... I can't let them save me... I looked out and saw that the two guards were looking away from me. I saw that there were security cameras... I got up and laid down pretending that I was going to sleep but underneath the chair. Someone, carved a grid like picture and a down arrow pointing to the back wall and one of the squares where shaded. It can't be... Was he planning my escape this whole time!? He knew I'd be here!? That means... The professor knew about my 'spilling-of-beans'. Damnnit! I deeply breathed in and out. I definitely can't stay... I'm sorry Fiore... I twisted and turned pretending that I was uncomfortable. I stood up again sitting against the square, they never changed my clothes so I still had my gear. I maneuvered my fingers and put on my needle gloves. I unbounded my arms, which was unseen by the cameras. I then wrote behind me on the square, "I'll bring the princess." Then I took another deep breath. Escaping time. I looked up at the cameras and quickly flipped out my needles. Watching as all broke the camera's screen. I pulled out the square, finding a opening to a tunnel high enough for me to run. I spliced out and put back the square from the outside. I didn't know where I was, I saw very dim lights and started running along them. Until I reached a ladder. I climbed up and lightly pushed on the trapdoor above my head. I looked around... It was the park I took Yui to. But I saw in the distance. I was surrounded by trees. So I climbed out and hid behind the nature. There was a grass patch on top of the trapdoor and I closed it. Next to me was a bush and I saw a brown paper bag. I grabbed it. It was a full set of...my clothes... Now this was weird. This was too much. I quickly changed and put my asylum clothes back into the bag slipping it under the bush, incase I needed it again. Now to call off the mission... I started running towards the cafe.

"Fluffa-whatakins? And Steve? Maybe you are right. Maybe It is delusional." Eren looked over to K after reading Fiore's text. "What do you think? Should we believe Oro or what? Or maybe..." Eren pushed his glasses up in theory. "Or has Fiore became soft recently?" With everything that has happened recently he had to admit Fiore hasn't had the most attendention like he had in the past. Well of course that was never Eren's job to begin with, but with K finding this new power and the recent takeovers, maybe that childish boy was fed up? Did Fiore find someone to concur that longing attention of his? But of course it was only theory. (The urge to put 'a game theory' is so strong right now) 

 

Yui watched as Simon placed his hand on Yui's forehead reminding the poor girl of her training with Antonio. Swirls could be seen in her violet eyes, "Y-Yea! I-I'm a-okay." Yui was greeted in to which she was relived over. The pinkette walked in where she was told she could sit. She sat on a nearby chair seeing Shimon go to get her tea, "Ah! You don't have to..." When a women suddenly came in greeting her, turning out to be Shimon's Mom. Yui looked up at her, "Hello..." She was nervous but yet something about his Mom had her think. She surely wasn't like her Mom of now. Yui's adopted Mom was always active taking orders, laughing with her Dad, and making sure to help the Poor District whenever she could. Yui wasn't too sure is Shimon's Mom could do the same, yet it seemed she really tried her best with what she could. The way the house was organized and the greeting she gave. Shimon's Mom actually made Yui ponder about her real Mom. It's been what? A week or two since she heard she was from the Sky clan. Yet she new little about her own family. It made her wonder what type of person her Mom was... Yui smiled, "Nice to meet you Isabella-San, your son's a hard worker. I can tell."

 

Meanwhile, Kataa was walking around relflecting on what Charles had told him the night before. "Ug whatever..." One thing was for sure. They needed to get Oro.
