[center][color=ed1c24][h3]Himeko Arslan[/h3] Interacting with: [@Dark Light] [@Kidd] [@Afro Samurai][/color][/center] [hr] While the white haired woman talked with the dispatcher, Himeko focused on the old man whose violent coughing died down after a few hard pats on the back. A rather hollow chuckle escaped her lips after the old man finally stopped coughing, his body bent over and his hands on his knees. She removed her hand from his back, [color=ed1c24]"Well now, go scamper along old man. Go bother someone else."[/color] She hoped that the old man would have enough common sense to follow her word - as she was a girl with a sword. However, when the old man continued to spout out vulgar words, her grip tightened and her look turned into a glare. A turmoil of negative emotions was swirling within her heart - her violent nature attempting to climb out and resurface once more. She did her best to put it down. She can't let anger consume her. She could, before, but not now. There was no one to pull her out besides the ones under her, but they were of questionable origins as well. [color=ed1c24]"If you don't shut up right now, old man, I swear I will hunt you down."[/color] The tone she used was very threatening and showed that she was most definitely not joking. [color=ed1c24]"And I will show you why they call me the Demon Princess."[/color] It would seem that the old man, despite drunk, understood what that meant. He muttered something incoherent under his breath. When Cori spoke up, addressing not the person on the phone but another one, her head snapped towards the assumed male. As he grew closer, his face grew clearer and a hint of recognition flashed through her eyes. This man had frequented the club before. There was no mistaking who he was. She didn't know his name but she knew that he went from bar to bar, club to club. What was his job again? Did he even have a job? When she heard an engine roar to life, she only then noticed that the old man had already left her side and was now inside the woman's sports car. Oh. She watched it drive away, fully knowing that it would only end up as a vain attempt should she run after it. She saw the look of dejection in the woman's face as she watched her car drive away. [color=ed1c24]"Oh, shame."[/color] She muttered under her breath, knowing that the woman might find it as an insult or something. That must have cost a lot too. She must have been rich. As the familiar red and blue lights entered her vision, she was violently thrown back into her memories. The feeling of handcuffs wrapping around her wrists, the shoving of the police as she, her friends and her enemies tried to struggle to escape, the amount of time spent inside those juvenile jails, their voices subdued by the harsh eyes of the officers - they were the memories she didn't want to go through in real life again. As the woman already spoke to the officer about her stolen car, Himeko could only mutter one thing, [color=ed1c24]"Oh fuck..."[/color] The officer's suspicious eyes gazed around them. She knew he knew her. Heck, everyone in the police stations must have known her. She was quite a frequent face after all. They just couldn't hold her down long enough to send her to jail. Ha. She raised her gaze to meet the officer's. [color=ed1c24]"Meh. He got into a crash and I pulled him out - end of story."[/color] She said with a shrug, assuming a lax posture, showing how used to this kind of situation she was. However, the woman was immediately cut off by the officer, telling the woman about Himeko's record. However, the officer stopped as he squinted at the woman. Curiously, she looked over to her as well. She had this cocky grin on her face as if she just got her pardon. Though, Himeko didn't really get it. Why did she look so happy? Then, the officer continued calling the woman 'Ms. Woods'. Processing: Find Ms. Woods in memory. Loading. Loading. Eh, Himeko must have heard of her in passing but she can't remember who she was or what her family is all about. Must have been a rich family by the looks of it. As the officer continued to speak, Ms. Woods stomped her foot down on the pavement and her face red - probably from embarrassment as being called a 'party girl'. Her smile was completely wiped off of her face. Well, that was funny. The officer cut her off once more (Wow, what a disrespectful bastard) and then telling her that he was talking to Himeko. Even if she didn't get the woman's cockiness earlier, she really hated the fact that he kept cutting her off. She just wanted to knock him out and be over with it. But that wasn't really ideal. [color=ed1c24]"Again, I don't know the dude. He crashed in my district so I investigated it. Pulled him out of the wreckage and then she came and had to call you guys."[/color] She obviously didn't think that was a good idea. Himeko could have very well called someone to bring them to the hospital. No need for the police to get involved. Well, up until her car got stolen at least. But that was not her fault and she'd rather not be involved in any of it. She then stretched her arms. [color=ed1c24]"Come on, search me. All I have is this wooden sword and some coins. I haven't caused trouble in over a year and a half, [i]officer[/i], and I don't plan on going to jail. Besides, he got into an accident with that pylon - no way I can cause something like that."[/color] She then looked over to Ms. Woods. [color=ed1c24]"Oh, and her car got stolen by this drunk old man."[/color]
