When Flame made his apology - Chieko simply grimaced. Now...she [i]could[/i] have accepted their apology. That'd be what a nice person would do here. Unfortunately for them, Chieko had no desire to be nice right now. [color=chocolate]"...hmph."[/color] Chieko simply scoffed, ignoring them as she rubbed Aki's head. She had better things to do than linger here. [color=chocolate]"I have a date with Aki-chan. Go play soldier or something."[/color] Maybe Yuuki wasn't so bad, but she didn't want to stick around. She wanted to find Hiro and Aerith and figure out what she was going to do from here on out. Wasn't like she had anywhere to go...no money either. Oof...well, as long as she had Aki that would be fine. [color=chocolate]"E-eh?"[/color] Aki's trembling voice pulled her out of her thoughts. Chieko hands trembled as she held the smaller girl by the shoulders. Crying?! Why was Aki crying!? Who did she need to beat up? Mono? Mono was mean to Aki-Chan?...okay beat up later. No way was she good enough to beat up that guy yet. [color=chocolate]"It's okay, okay, Aki-Chan. Big sis won't let anything happen to you."[/color] She wrapped her arms around the smaller girl, nuzzling the top of her head with her own until the small energetic girl let go of her. Chieko's shoulders slumped, blissfully watching Aki walk over to Wisp and free the cat from his handcuffs. Well, she didn't really care about Mono or what he wanted anyways. Besides, bullying smol cute adorable things should be a crime! A crime! Soon enough Aki had freed them however, and was now clinging adorably to her own arm. [color=chocolate]"...Wisp."[/color] Chieko greeted the cat person with a neutral expression and a quiet voice, though quickly turned her attention back to the girl clinging to her arm. [color=chocolate]"Aki-chan, was that magic?"[/color] She asked, curiously. Maybe she should find Aer and ask her about adventurer training.

[color=slategray]"Oh well. I'll take the sweet compliment even if its entirely untrue, heh."[/color] Quickly turning her pout into a grin, Mie watched Mirt curiously. These were not your average travelers at all, and that [i]extremely[/i] interested Mie for multiple reasons, not just for alleviating her boredom. The smelled of trouble, or rather, fun as she might better say. Even caused the fur on her tail to stand up slightly - a sure sign of a good time to be had. [color=slategray]"Heh, you however, look like no fun at all."[/color] She said to Anyon before running off after Mirt and Donovan, at least to the door of his establishment. She wanted to get a full idea of what was going on here, after all. Those injuries looked pretty bad, too. From what she could overhear, something about some prize fighting. Underground fighting ring? Mie's ears twitched at the thought. Hum. A new source of potentially untapped income. Useful. A name too, Larchmond. He had some warehouses in the Golden quarter. Now this was sounding like an incredibly lucrative, if risky business. By the time Mirt and Donovan exited, she was a few steps away back on the street. [color=slategray]"Money? Now that is something I am always interested in."[/color] She smirked, tail swishing back and forth idly. [color=slategray]"But tell me...how much profit are we talking, hm? I'm incredibly busy, after all...and you look like the type to get me into a lot of trouble, heh. Not that I mind. This little fox can handle herself."[/color] Well, even if he wasn't going to ask she was going to insert herself into this situation whether they wanted her too or not. [color=slategray]"And the names Mie. Calling me 'Miss' makes me feel like that old hag over there."[/color]
