The Blood Red Tavern

"We will always have the higher bid. We assure you," Eltore smirked, handing him a check for 1mil sens.

They haven't met my other clients. A million is too easy to top.

"Sure," he said and took the check. Oh well, I suppose this will do. "That'll be a convenience."

If he thinks one million will be our minimum payment, he doubts the possibilities of the brotherhood, Eltore thought. "Thank you, and your welcome."

If they stand conceited, that'll be just an advantage to me.

"But seriously, what do you plan with all these gold bars?"

"I do not know. It is mere tradition," he sighed.

"That's a shame," he said, still looking at the gold bars. "Kinda useless then."

Amelia opened the door to the tavern and stopped right away to look around. The whole surrounding gave her a feeling that told her to be careful and to watch her mouth.

Amelia ruffled her drenched hair. great, my hair is all messed up... why does it have to rain all the time?

Zane left Eltore and went up to the tavern. Only to see another face he recognized. Unbelievable.

Amelia looked around and noticed that there were a few people in the room, some looked at her in a creepy way and others just ignored her. She walked up to a table and sat down and fixed her hair some. it feels nice to get inside... its rally nice and warm in here.
Someone came inside the tavern and Amelia looked to the door, she saw Zane. Wbat is he doing here?

[came from a different door, was already inside.]

Well, she had good perception. She saw him quickly; he then walked to her table. "You again," he said before he could stop his words.

[ooooooooooooooh, sorry. xP]

Amelia nodded and smiled. "Yup! Its me again." She laughed a little and waved. "Its nice to see you, Zane." She waited for him to sit down.

[no worries ^^]

He smiled and sat down without waiting for any kind of invitation. "So it is. I never thought I'd see you in a tavern. Why are you here? It's not the kind of place I thought you would venture in."

This place is heaps of trouble.

(Is there already 4 in here, or can i join?)

[go ahead ^^]

[okidoki~]

She pointed to her hair and smiled. "As you mabye have noticed, its pouring down outside. I didnt want to get all drenched, so i walked to the closest place with a roof and walls." she said. "Which was this place..." She looked around the room and felt a chill run down her spine.

He glanced and caught sight of water. "Didn't notice," he shrugged. "Why do I always meet you when it's raining?" He absentmindedly asked.

"I'm not gonna say don't come here - it's dangerous or whatever," he leaned back on his chair. "I'm sure you can handle yourself well enough."

Kotaro entered the tavern, shaking off the rain. Damn it. At least my bag is dry. Kotaro looked around the tavern, seeing a familiar face. Is that Amelia?

Amelia chuckled to herself. "mabye its you who attracts the rain?" She winked and smiled.

Amelia nodded and said. "youre so right about that. But i appreciate the concern." She looked away to the door and saw Kotaro walk inside. "... Kotaro? What is he doing here?"

He smiled. "Who knows," he replied, crossing his arms. "I would welcome water any time." Maybe not really. But it would be convenient.

Zane waved his hand dismissively. "I already saw you fight." He looked at door when she did and saw a newcomer. He wasn't sure but something about him was quite familiar. But he couldn't remember and didn't try to.

Kotaro walked up to the table. "So it IS you." Kotaro wiped away some of the rain on his jacket. "Let me guess, had to get out of the rain? Thats why I'm here."

"Youre a weirdo. Welcoming the rain like that." Amelia said, and ruffled Zanes hair and grinned.

"true." She smiled and felt glad. Amelia turned to face Kotaro. "Mhm! Its me!" She said and grinned. "Yeah, its really an aweful weather outside! Ugh." She said and shivered. "why dont you sit down with us and wait out the rain?" She smiled and pulled out the chair beside her.

"It's convenient," he answered and swatted her hand off his hair. Leaning back on the chair, and kept to himself.

Kotaro shrugged. "Why not." He sat in the chair and put his bag under the table. He noticed the person Amelia had been talking with. He seemed to be keeping quiet. How mysterious, but this isn't the best place to find social people after all.

Amelia Eyerolled and began to focus on Kotaro. Hm, seems like Zane isnt in the mood of being teased. She smiled. "So, how are you? It have been a while since i saw you. Btw, where is Kira?"

He closed his eyes as he remembered something. The payment is still with Eltore; better get my money before I leave.

Zane didn't speak, rather, he decided to just listened on to their conversation.
