[color=9e0b0f][h1][center]Nina[/center][/h1][/color] [hr] [sup][@Hekazu][/sup] [hr] While both Nina and Croaks patiently waited for the biker to wake up, small talk was unavoidable. She couldn't help but laugh at Croaks mention about how her birthday was going. It has been a weird day indeed, but nothing Nina wasn't somewhat accustomed. Croaks also mentioned that he didn't commemorate his birthday. In fact, not many did... other than the big figures from megacorps who didn't need to worry about hiding their past or earning money to pay their life expenses. But since Nina was... somewhere between both worlds, she liked to at least remember and do a little something for herself on her birthday. [color=9e0b0f]"As weird as it sounds, I'm already accustomed with these things."[/color] Nina said, with a giggle. [color=9e0b0f]"You may think of me as a weird girl and even wonder how I'm alive till now by acting the way I do. Thing is, as someone who works with information, I pretty much [I]need[/I] to take advantage of my inoffensive look and stick my nose in many... dangerous... places. It became somewhat of a habit to use every bit of advantage I can get... That includes being a guest of two heads of a certain gang..."[/color] Nina said, laughing. [color=9e0b0f]"Just don't worry too much about me. I'm not as fragile or oblivious as I look. Oh, don't worry, I'm not offended if you thought that about me. It's exactly what I'm looking for when making business."[/color] Nina finished, with a mischievous expression, putting a finger over her mouth almost as if she was telling him a secret of her trade. Just as Croaks was about to ask if she wanted a drink, the biker woke up with a groan of pain and breathing heavily. It seemed that the woman with the helmet gave him quite a trashing before she fled. It shouldn't be too hard to make him speak, seeing the state he already was. Nina quietly watched as Croaks gave a step into the biker's direction, rapping his fingers on his gun's body. After Croaks threatened the guy, it became quite obvious when he started to stare to the door. Before the biker could do anything though, Croaks already moved himself to block any possible escape path, once again reiterating that the biker had no options beside speaking. After Croaks finished talking and walked back, Nina went forward to ask what she wanted to the biker, which seemed to greatly calm down the biker. [color=9e0b0f]"You heard him. There's no need for anyone to get hurt, right? I only want to ask a few questions..."[/color] Nina said, with a neutral expression. [color=9e0b0f]"More specifically, questions about the one who well... left you in such a sorry state... I don't think you would disagree in making her life a bit more difficult, would you?"[/color] Nina asked, with a smirk. "What's in for me?" the biker asked, looking back and forth from Nina to Croaks. Nina blinked a few times, looking to the biker's face and trying to understand what he said. His raspy voice made it very difficult to understand, Nina only caught the first words he said. [color=9e0b0f]"What...?"[/color] Nina asked, raising her eyebrows. "WHAT'S. IN. FOR. ME?" the man asked, speaking louder. It was understandable now, albeit barely. [color=9e0b0f]"Your life... your safety... your freedom... the choice is yours. Well... even if I say so... you don't have many choices you know?"[/color] Nina said, rolling her eyes as she waited for his answer. That man really didn't know how to read the situation... "Scarlett. Reaper. Looking for Davison. Wants revenge. Works for big organization." The biker said, snarling still with the same hostile look despite the situation he was in. Not only his voice, but the way he spoke also made it very, very hard to understand what he was saying. It was only with a lot of effort and concentration that Nina was able to put some sense in the chopped words he said. The woman was called Scarlett, she was a reaper and the motive she was looking for Davison was for revenge. But that wasn't much. Revenge for what? It was Davison who did something to her or she was looking for him to get to the one she wanted? Who was she working for? And who was that guy who was speaking with Scarlett on the bar? Whatever he said to her seemed to be really important to make her run off like that. [color=9e0b0f]"This does not help at all..."[/color] Nina said with a long sigh, shaking her head. What luck... The man she captured was just a thug and to make things even worse, couldn't even speak properly. The information the man gave her was basically nothing. A name was useless in a place such as the combat zones... The motive could potentially be of some use [i]if[/i] Nina was able to find Scarlett... [color=9e0b0f]"Who is she working for? Who was the man talking with her inside the bar?"[/color] Nina asked, looking to the biker with a serious stare and speaking with a firm tone. [color=9e0b0f]"Speak clearly this time. Trying to decipher your growling is really counter productive..."[/color] Nina said, with a thoughtful expression. If that man really didn't knew much, she was back to the beginning. Whoever that woman was, Nina had a feeling that she was worth investigating. But unfortunately, it seemed like Nina struck a nerve when she mentioned the biker's voice as it became clear when he spat on her face, letting out a flurry of words, almost impossible to understand. Wiping the spit off her face with a disgusted expression, Nina looked to the man with piercing eyes. He really didn't know the situation he was in... In the blink of an eye, Nina spun around herself in a low kick, hitting both of the man's legs, making a loud and very unpleasant snapping noise echo through the room, shattering the man's knees and making him fall to the ground, groaning in pain. [color=9e0b0f]"Sorry Croaks, I don't think being the good girl will work..."[/color] she said, looking back to Croaks. [color=9e0b0f]"Answer. My. Questions."[/color] Nina said, looking to the man, now really threatening him.
