esting Fuka on the pub wall, the bodies of the defeated K pirates decorated the bar's floors. The windows of the bar were damaged from the frequent use of Kyojin's Gura Gura abilities. Exiting the pub and wiping the blood from his face, Kyojin looked into the street, searching for reinforcements. Walking from the right junction of the street that stood before the pub, situated in the center of the buildings on the stretch, a tall woman around 6'1 walked towards the pub with a squad of K pirates at her side. On her waist, the woman wore a jousting sword and a small automatic flintlock to her left, on her thigh. Her long snow white hair stretched down to her waist, complemented by the pale nature of her skin, almost sun burnt from the East Blue's cruel heat. Wearing a small tank top with the initial's J.F.K, the woman walked down the street with immense poise. From Kyojin's current position, he could feel the blood-lust dripping off of the woman's frame. Strutting back into the bar to retrieve Fuka, Kyojin faced the woman with his hands firmly grasped on his lover's thin metallic body. A crowd now surrounded both the bar and the street's top, the crowd numbered around twenty to thirty in nature and whispers traveled around the crowed about the Second Mate's defeat. As the woman drew closer, her beauty truly would take any man aback. Her plush cheeks, flushed pink lips and crimson red eyes were enough to make the foolish of men fall. However, her animosity didn't suit her face, all that was left now was her smiling face as she tried to grasp the situation.

Sitting on the floor, Kyojin rested Fuka on his shoulder and peered up at the gigantic of the woman. "May I ask you a question... Please tell me a beauty like yourself isn't part of the K Pirates?"Kyojin inquired. The woman looked down at the tattered pirate"Your the one who defeated Tink? A wretch like yourself... Impossible." Flyheart said with such disgust. Despite her beauty, her manner of speech and facial expressions were venomous, quite crass in nature. However, this position Kyojin had taken was simply to gain easier access to the woman's throat. "Let's talk for a bit before I report this to the boss... What's your angle here? What will you accomplish by messing with our operations, eh?"Flyheart inquired.

What the hell was happening around here!? The blonde thought as she ran down the streets toward the source of the sounds of fighting. Those damn K Pirates were at it again, it would seem. Toriera had heard the town mayor had at last broke down and called in outside help. She, like many others, had hoped this would mean the end of the rampaging pirates turned bandit. The thought of fighting them herself had crossed her mind a few times, but it wasn't her place. Yet, here she was running blindly toward the site of the sounds all cause the request of one girl. A barmaid she had befriended as come and asked her for help. "I know you can fight!" The girl pleaded. "I seen you beat them when they attack you once before."

The blonde was unsure what she would do once reaching the pub. Would she fight? There was no reason to and it wouldn't help her reach her own goals. Still, she felt like it needed to be done. This world was slowly changing her from what she knew of herself from back in the lab. But, maybe that was a good thing. Anyway, she still wasn't sure what was happening so it wasn't the time to act. Sliding around a corner Toriera soon saw the crowd of people as they gather to watch what was happening. Quickly she worked her way through the people before stepping out into the street on the left side of the junction street that stood before the pub. "The Hell going on here!" She called out.

With a quick look around it wasn't what she thought she was going to find in the less. A young man clover in blood with a scythe sat with a group of the K Pirates before him. "That boy fought with Tink." She heard someone from behind said. "...Did he?" She said in a whisper as she slowly started walking toward the two herself. Where the white hair woman drown in the stench of bloodlust the blonde has her own feeling. Like a calm flowing wind of nothing she made her way forward. She had decided to fight this day. As doing so would, in the end, prove helpful in her own goals.

"Hey! It's that bitch from the other day!" One of the bandit yelled pointing at Toriera. He must have been with the group that had tried taking her away a few days pasted. The fact he was still able to stand almost impressed her. "Flyheart!" She called out as she stopped four meters behind the boy. "Have the K bandit resorted to fighting with kids now?" Tori asked in a mocking tone, trying to draw the eyes of the woman toward herself. If what she was reading from the boy was true, then she would give him the opening he wanted. "First Tink and now this! My how the mighty have fallen!" Ending it with a wicked grin to ask the salt to the wounds.

he rage the fell over Flyheart was instantaneous to the words of the blonde from the crowd. The crowd began to hop into the conversation, riding on the wave of the woman's words. "Yeah... I knew the K Pirates were despicable but even kids..." one of the onlookers screamed. "Shows what kind of Captain they have!" another man shouted. However, his days were short lived, the sound of Flyheart's bullet penetrating the man's forehead ending the cries indefinitely. "Say what you want about me... but keep my Captain's name out of your lowly mouths." Flyheart stated with a still kind of rage over her face. "Woman." Flyheart said, tilting her head slightly towards the unknown blonde from the crowd, "Child or not... The fact remains that this boy has murdered one of my precious crewmates and the punishment for that will be grave. Boy, I'll ask you the question once again... What do you hope to accomplish by messing with our operation her in Orange Town. Is it foolish vigor of youth, wanting to save these people from the bad guys? Or maybe for fame, do you want these seas to recognize your name far and wide?" Flyheart inquired. Kyojin began to laugh, spinning his scythe in it's vertical position from the ground, around in his hand, in a sideways motion. "Fame... That's a nice motivation. Hero? I'm not anything so pretty. I didn't come here to save these people... Playing hero is for marines, isn't it? I'm only targeting your crew for one reason and one reason only." Kyojin concluded. The woman placed her pistol towards his head, "Oh, why is that?" Flyheart. "What kind of man do you believe can change the world? In my mind, only greedy men can change the world. Fame, Power, Respect and Wealth, none of these alone are my motivations... The answer would be this, I want everything this sea has to offer me. A Greedy man can change the world because his intentions are much purer than anything else." Kyojin said grinning.

"That's enough Johana!" a deep voice could be heard from the crowd. Walking forward was an elderly gentleman with cane and crimson eyes as deep in color as fresh blood. "Grandpa...." Flyheart whispered. "They just keep coming out of the woodworks eh?" Kyojin thought to himself. "She's fairly distracted as well... I'll strike soon, it's my only chance anyway, I can feel her pressure, she's much more powerful than me." Kyojin thought. "Look at yourself, pirate or not, you're aiming your weapon at a child... Is this the vision your Captain had in mind when I opened this town's doors to him, Johana!" the old man shouted. Johana shot a bullet into the sky, "Enough! Your just a foolish old man trying to play Mayor!" the woman screamed. "The K Pirates are my home now! Orange Town is our base of operations. I am Johana Flyheart, the woman who will make my Captain's name soar throughout these seas." Johana stated. Turning back to Kyojin the woman drew her blade but the child had moved from his seated position. "Where did he go!?" Johana thought panicking. With a gentle smile set on his face, Kyojin shifted to the woman's blind spot, lunging his body into mid-air and with one swoop, slashing towards the woman's throat. The woman's senses were uncanny, any other person wouldn't have been able to get her blade to block the scythe in time but alas, she had accomplished it. Using her brute strength, she stopped the fatal blow, leaving the two in a power struggle which resulted in Kyojin's blade sitting dangerous close to her neck. Placing her pistol towards Kyojin's shoulder, Johana fired one shot. The force of the bullet sent the child's body into shock, causing him to fall to the floor.

Fuka still remained in it's prior position however, covering his scythe's blade with a bubble of sorts. A cracking noise could be heard as the woman's blade began to shatter slightly. The sound of a surge of power rushing through the battlefield, sent Johana flying five meters backwards. The woman's neck was ripped open, gushing out onto the bandana she now used to apply pressure to the wound. "What in the world was that?" Johana thought. Returning to his feet, shaky in stature, Kyojin used his lover, Fuka as a cane of sorts to regain his balance. "Fuck." Kyojin thought, a million thoughts were rushing through his mind. Firstly, getting shot hurts like a bitch. Secondly, he'd lost too much blood. Thirdly, she actually shot him. Kyojin had miscalculated, thinking he could play on the woman's seeming curiosity towards his age. However, she was a trained fighter and wasn't about to lose so easily. "Men! Grab the blonde and the kid! We're taking them back to the boss!" Fly heart shouted.

There it was again. The habit people had of turning others into the monsters they needed them to be. Even in this case the person was a monster herself. Calling the boy a murderer just caused he killed her shipmate was almost laughable in truth. And my how quickly people grew brave when they have someone else to stand behind as she heard the crowd begin to join in with her taunts, but it was short lived along with the last man who spoke. Fools, everyone of them. Despite the danger of this woman and her men, nor even before they appeared it should have been enough with just the fighting in the pub for people to stay away. Yet, people always seem to gravitate toward danger. Still, it only helped to anger the woman more. So this Captain of her is a weakness... good to know she thought as the boy began to speak.

More pointless talking it would seem, but it was interesting if nothing else. As it seems this boy spoke more truth than most people would agree to, or at least then how she saw it. And with yet another man stepping in Tori were slowly starting to grow bored of this as she noticed the movement in front of her. Bout time! She thought as the boy launched his attack on the woman. He was fast, quick, and low; a perfect attack, well, almost as the flyheart reacted just in time. However, the real interesting part came afterward. With the boy now laying on the ground bleeding, he somehow left the scythe's blade surrounded by a bubble of sort before it creaked sending Shockwave through the air. "Devil Fruit!?" She heard herself say watching everything before her. Even so things were going in her favor as she noticed the glowing red stain on Flyheart neck.

"Good job kid." Said toward the boy as she walked toward the two. Looking down it only took a quick glance to see the full damage. Shoulder wounds hurt like hell, but wasn't life threatening, well at least not a quick one. However, before she could get any closer the was met with two men with a mix of anger and joy on their faces. "Don't know what kind of tricks you two are trying to pull off, but you're coming with us blondie." The man said before grabbing her arm. In a flash anger filled Tori as her own arm lunched up around his arm, and twisting it. "Do Not!" Her eyes turning a blight blood red color. "Touch Me!" Said just a second before the air was filled with the sound of bone breaking and men's screams. Just as quickly she stepped forward toward the second man and before the shock wore off landed a hard stomp to the front of the man's kneecap. Her cold eyes gave no joy or anger in her action as she suddenly rushed forward toward her main target. For eighteen years she fought, bleed and killed to the point that it only felt natural to her.

"W-What the hell going on!" One of the men yelled confused by everything. It wasn't until she was a meter away from Flyheart it seemed to have clicked with everyone. "FLYHEART!" Some yelled at Tori jumped into the air, flipping forward for momentum before sending a hard heel kick down toward her head. However, once again like lighting the woman moved to block the attack filling the air with the sound of metal on metal. "What the fuck are you!?" Flyheart asked, pushing the blonde back and quickly following with a fury of attacks. With dead eyes, Tori did her best to dodge those she could and blocked the rest with her arms and legs. Those watching stared in confusement at the fight as Tori once more punches the sword away and landing a hard blow to the woman side with kick knocking her into street wall.

"Why...Why can't I cut you!" The pirate screamed, pointing the blade at the blonde again. Once again Tori took a fighting pose as she awaited another attack. Like hell she was going to tell a lowly pirate what she really was. There were far too many eyes and ears around for her to let such an important secret out. "You're weak!" She said in a frozen face. Anger. It was a weapon she was more than willing to use against Flyheart. "You're just a weak sword for a weak Captain. No wonder you lot have resorted to attacking small towns!" Ending this time with a grin before stepping back out of sword range.

hrowing caution to the wind, Flyheart dashed towards the blonde. Her words angered her on levels that she couldn't even convey properly in her emotions. "Maybe I thought too soon, her Captain.... Her moves become slightly irrational once his name is brought up." Kyojin thought. Struggling to make it back to his knees, one of the K Pirates approached from his blindside, attempting to slam his mace and crush the kids body. The man's heavy footsteps and inconstant breathing was picked up by Kyo's ears. "Crap. I can't move fast enough... I'll have to use 'it'." Kyojin thought. Five years ago, in Loguetown, Kyojin and his two orphaned siblings were out on an excursion with the orphanage to an Island in the East Blue called 'Bell Island'. Bell Island was known for it's mountain ranges to have a strange bell like shape. Kyojin, never listening to any of the Maiden Mothers from the orphanage, sneaked off from the pack, becoming lost in the mountain ranges dense hills. It was there that Kyojin encountered a strange monk, who was suspended atop a 10 foot rock, meditating with a waterfall rushing over his finally tuned body. The man slowly opened his eyes, dismounting from the rock instantly, pushing the boy onto the floor, the monk placed his hand on Kyojin's chest. It was at that moment the two males eyes met. "Are you lost, boy?" the outlandish man asked. "Somewhat! I wanted to go on an adventure in the hills! Lost my brother and sister." Kyojin exclaimed. "And you're not scared?" the man inquired. "Nope! I'm accustomed being alone, I guess." Kyojin uttered with a blank gleeful expression. "Remarkable. This part of the mountain can't be found by regular mortals... He must have something tremendous sleeping within him." the man thought. "Boy, are you afraid to die?" the man asked. "Right now... In this moment, I could use these fists of mine to crush your heart? Now I ask you, aren't you afraid?" the man inquired. Kyojin became quiet, his eyes glazed over, with the bleakest look, he peered into the man's soul. "No. I'm not afraid to die. However, I can't die here. I know you'll let me live." Kyojin said grinning. The man gave out a loud chuckle. "Why's that boy?" the man said slightly amused. "What's the fun in picking a rose that's now shooting from the bud?" Kyojin said, grinning, the darkness from his eyes had subsided. "I've decided then... boy. I'll take you as my protege. What you learn from me here might destroy that feeble body of yours one day. However, it may allow that flare in your heart to live on much longer." the man declared. "My name is Uryuu. I'm the Master and one of the high founders of the Tengu's Dance Fighting Style. If you accept my offer to become pupil, I promise you unimaginable power." Uryuu stated. Picking himself up and dusting off his clothes, "Okay. Teach me. I'll need it if I'm going to accomplish my goal." Kyojin said. "Oh... what is that!?" the man declared with a joyful monotone. "What else-" Kyojin statement was cut short as he snapped back into reality.

Focusing his breathing, with one deep breath, Kyojin used his Tengu's Dance, first primary skill. "Ascension!" Kyojin uttered, dashing to the left of the downward mace strike. Returning to his feet, the pain in Kyojin's shoulder began to fade. His muscles began to deeply relaxed but yet concentrated state. "Rum tum... Rum... tum..." the boy hummed. The mace user rushed towards Kyojin, swinging his mace sideways towards Kyojin's ribcage. Spinning on the tip of his toes, Kyojin spun in the opposite direction of the mace's swings scope, circling around to the man's back. Positioning his scythe around the man's neck, "Target.... Neck." the man thought three seconds prior. Pulling his scythe forward, Kyojin slashed open the man's throat. The sound of three bullets being fired from a musket was picked up by Kyojin's ears, running towards the shooter, Kyojin cut off the marksman hand, causing him to pass out. "I'll fucking kill you blonde! My Captain's name won't be stained by you two scum!" Flyheart shouted. Reminiscing on her youth in Orange Town, Johana and Jenga on looked the ocean sea under moonlight in their childhood. "I'm going out to the sea when I'm eighteen, Johana!" Jenga declared. The boy's jet black hair and odd green eyes shined brightly under the moon's luminous aura. "Idiot! You wouldn't last a fucking moment on these seas!" Johana exclaimed in fear of losing Jenga. "Hehe... Maybe your right... However, I'll still leave anyway. There is so much out there to see. I can't- No, I won't see it all from this puny island. Johana... Your the strongest woman in this village! Come with me! Let's conqueror these seas together!" Jenga declared. The girl's blushed face became the showcase of the moon's downward glow. "Idiot! Not like I wanted to come or anything anyway! Besides! What's in it for me?" Johana asked pouting. "When I become Pirate King... I'll make you my queen. Then these seas will recognize us as the ultimate crew!" the boy smiled, showing his crack tooth.

"Her movements are sloppy and she's slower." Kyojin thought. Chasing the woman's forward assault from the hind. Wrapping his scythe's blade around the woman's left leg, Kyojin robbed the woman of her appendage in an instance, causing her to fall forward crashing towards the blonde haired woman. "Tengu's Hunt!" Kyojin thought. "You're up blonde!" Kyojin shouted. Flyheart continued with her attack, attempting to slam her jousting lance into woman's eye. "My body's responding well... However, I need to go deeper into my trance, I can still feel the pain from the bullet wound.... Deeper." Kyojin thought. "Rum tum.... Rum... Tum..." the boy hummed. Everything around him began to slow down, it was as if his own time had frozen or almost pause for a moment. The sounds of the villagers heavy breathing, motivational screams towards himself and the blonde, the sound of an old man's heart almost at his peak. All of the sounds were consumed by his ears, so much so, his brain was overloaded with everyone thoughts and rage, it seemed filled wishes. "The woman... Her body's... Different... I can hear it... The sound of metal rustling from under clothes.... Intriguing." Kyojin thought, lost in his thoughts. Thinking back to his meeting with Uryuu, "What happens if you sink too deeply into the 'trance', I seem to think best when I'm in it!" Kyojin inquired. "Hmm.... If you sink too deeply, you'll be a vegetable, I guess!" Uryuu said chuckling. "Eh!!?" Kyojin exclaimed. "Tengu's Dance is similar to hypnotism or even meditation. It pretty much allows you to enter a hyper sensitive state. However, if you're body gets too accustomed to this state, you're spirit will think you transcended to the next realm. In other words, slip too deep, you die." Uryuu said.

Techniques Used:

Anger made one strong, bullheaded and able to power through the worst of pain, but it also made you blind. As Flyheart lost herself in her own rage Tori knew then that the strategy had worked perfectly. Her swings became slower and more predictable and worst for her, she lost focus on her surroundings. Allowing the boy an opening to her backside. "Seem he still have some fight in him." She thought as she stop her retreat from the woman blade. Without hesitation and with precise aim, he slashes the leg clean. Some might call crude or even heinous for such a thing in battle, but when it all comes down to it: There are no rules in a fight.

The winner gets to say who were right and who were wrong. Toriera eyes locked onto the woman blade as it rushed toward her face. Even with the lost of her leg, she still kelp the sword on point. Most likely trying to take Tori with her into the pits of Hell. Unfortunately Tori could not grant such a wish this day as her own goal had yet to be reached. Quickly spinning to the left Tori felt the blade of the sword cut along her cheek before breaking away from the attack. Now with Flyheart side exposed she ready her last attack. "Hydra Pump!" She said as she built the power into her arm before punching Flyheart left side of the face. Sending her flying to the way once again, this time no getting up. Dead or not Tori didn't really care as the real fight was now over. With only the minions left.

"Not bad boy." She said to the young man with the scythe as steam escaped her right arm in a blast. "W-What the hell are these two!?" One of the pirate asked full of fear. Allowing a smile Tori stepped forward, slamming her fists together, causing a spark before electricity began to dance around her fists. Without a word she set out to end this fight for good as she landed a surprised punch on the closes man sending him flying in pain. "I'm the Alpha! That all I'm willing to tell you." She said before spinning around another attack sword thrust and punching him in the temple dropping him like a bag of rocks. "Well anyone else?" She asked with a modest smile and wink.

lacing his lover Fuka on his back, Kyojin plopped onto the ground relieving his intense breathing. Snapping out of his trance, the boy began to feel the immense strain the ability had on his muscles. Peering at the woman's finished punch towards Flyheart, the woman was surely defeated. Exhaling, the mayor rushed over to the defeated woman's body. The townspeople rushed to her side, it was as if a darkness was lifted from the village, well, for now. "That was pretty nice lady." Kyojin said, clenching at his shoulder. "However, that was a risk. If she wasn't as passionate about her Captain as you estimated, this could've ended very differently." Kyojin expressed. "All in, All in..." Kyojin said, looking at the sky. "That's two down." Kyojin thought smiling. Using her joust as a prop, the woman rose back to her knees. "I wont... let you hurt Captain." Flyheart strained to say. "Enough." Kyojin declared. "What will you gain from continuing this fight?" Kyojin said. "I will make Jenga Pirate King!" Flyheart shouted, half-conscious. "Impossible." Kyojin uttered. "Why do people always scoff at our dream!?" Flyheart inquired, not even targeting Kyojin directly, but just screaming out of pain and fustration. "Because I will be Pirate King! Above anything else, I'll rule on these seas!" Kyojin shouted shaking the crowd in attendance with his charisma. "Ha! What makes a shitty brat like you think he can become Pirate King!?" Flyheart shouted in rebuttal. "My greed! My greed to destroy this world to it's core puts me above all others in ambitions!" Kyojin screamed. Losing his mind shortly from the exhaustion, Kyojin began to rant, it was after this speech, he passed out. "My mother and father died from pirates when I was younger. However, I was met with no rage or feelings of revenge. To be honest, I was too young to remember anything about them. When I learn what an orphan was, I lost my mind. I gave up on this pitiful world." Kyojin screamed. Ripping off his shirt, he revealed the Cross Link Tattoo on his chest. Slamming his thumb into his chest, "However, I never once regretted my parents dying. I thought the universe was punishing me for my family's sins. Until I met them, my new family and read the newspapers about normal men becoming legends on these seas! I was born from nothing! As such I was destined to die nothing! I'll rip destiny apart with my own fangs... And change my fate. I'll find nakama that I can let my family meet and-" Kyojin screamed, passing out. "Damn it... Too much oxygen went to my brain... I revealed too much. Idiot." Kyojin thought before fading.

The child's words shook something within the heart of Flyheart, shortly after, she slept. "Please-" the Mayor said, looking at the boy who had passed out and then to his granddaughter. "Forgive her. She's always been a problem child. Every since young, she's never really belong since her parents left to Ohara all those years ago. Only Jenga gave her hope. His dreams of becoming a big name pirate, gave me hope that at least she had a purpose. But... being on these has changed Jenga... I don't even know who he is anymore." the Mayor informed. "It's true, Jen-chan has changed" the crowd announced.

With the last of the underlings now planted nicely face first Toriera finally allowed herself to rest a bit. Aside from Flyheart the rest was little more than cannon fodder to be thrown at the enemy. A decent idea as long as the enemy wasn't too strong and today they had bet wrong. However, it wouldn't have been so easy if it wasn't for the boy. Turning around to face the boy and the crowd of people Toriera took a second wrapping the blood from her face before smiling. "If I didn't think it wouldn't work I wouldn't have tried it! But it was easy enough." She said looking back toward Flyheart with an almost pity look. "She was good, no doubt about that. But too emotional." Before she could go on she was quickly cut off as Flyheart once again began to yell and scream.

Once again about Pirate King this and Pirate King that! Toriera had heard no end of such things ever since coming out into this side of the world. Was it truly such a great goal to try and reach for a title such as The King of the Pirates? Technically, she too could be considered a pirate, but her goals were far different than the average pirate. Still, is always interesting to hear the reason why each of them deserve the title more than others. But this boy... There was something different about him that she has seen in others. Something...dark.

She only watched and waited as the boy rant and rave obviously drunk on pain or maybe a side effect of the odd technique he used. Either way it ended with the boy telling them much more than he might have liked before passing out. However, it wasn't until the Mayor ending his pleas for his granddaughter that she lost it. For the first time slowing any true emotion Toriera laughter filled the air as she held her side. [b]"Just like that?!" She asked no one in particular. "They attacked you, rob from you, KILLED YOU! And just like that!" Adding a snap to the end as Toriera red eyes grew narrow as she looked at each of the town people. "You just blame it on another, this Jenga, her family for what had happened and forgive them?" but it wasn't anger in her voice, but amusement at it all.

It quickly became obvious that her words struck a chord as the people began to look at one another. Slowly walking over the boy only laugh again at everything. This world truly is a wondrous and weird place. It goes against everything she knew growing up in the lab, where only strength matter. Compassion? Forgiveness? These were weakness that would only get you killed, oh so she was raised to believe in. And so far it has kelp her alive. "B-but we're family!" One man spoke up from the crowd. "That...That's right!" Said another. "Surely you must have a family of your own? What would you do in our place?" Asked the mayor. Stopping next to the passed out boy and reaching down to pick up the weapon. "My family?" She said thinking. "Well... I'm going to kill them! That's my goal in life! So I don't have an answer for you." She said so playfully that many most likely believed her to be joking, but if they did none said a word.

But her story time was now over and done with as she looked down. "As for this boy..." She started before being cut off. "He's a hero..." But she was quicker this time. "You should kill him!" As she placed the blade to his neck. "But I know none you will." She stated in almost a laugh before the shouts began from the crowd. "Monster! He's just a boy!" and so on and so on. But she wasn't listening anymore as she slowly removed the blade and lay it down next to the boy. "This so called boy is one day going to be a real pain in this world side." It wasn't like she could tell or had an eye for these sorts of things. But the way he talked, so full of confidence, crazed, and reassurance in his own madness. "Such a curious thing. And I don't even know your name, My Lil Tengu."

But it was far past time her welcome as she felt the eyes of the town people burning into her back. Funny how quickly people change their tune with others. A day ago Flyheart were someone they were willing to pay to be killed and now she herself were called a monster. "Best get him a doctor for that shoulder and don't worry Mrs. Mayor. I'll be out of your town in a few days tops. I know when I overstayed my welcome." And with that the blonde wasted little time slipping into one of the street dark alleyways and disappearing.
