Milo Ventri

Milo had eventually found a fedex drop off location, they never were in good places, but the boxes were heavy and annoying to carry so he was glad to have them off of his back, but now he was deep in the city and had very little idea where he was even at.

"I always seem to get turned around." He spoke aloud to the empty street he was on, there were a few cars out and some people up the road, though he wasn't able to make out who they were, as if he actually knew them anyway. Milo saw a sign for the Old Starboard, a pub he had passed last week and had made mental note to try and hit up at some point, but as he moved closer he noticed that the bar was closed, as well as the silvery young woman from the other day, miss Victoria Romus.

"Well, fancy meeting you out here miss Romus." He gave her a bit of a grin but stayed on his bike and looked up at the bar. "Shame the bar is closed I'd offer you drink otherwise." The grin widened a bit at the situation, "May I ask what you are out and about for?"

Final Round Armoury, Tuesday

Milo took the next day off from his work, luckily working for himself lets him have that kind of choice. However he did get back to it as the days passed and the pain in his leg had subsided. Every once and while throughout the day he called back to the jazz night he had attended and the travesty that it had been, but the night had still left him a few good things, the card he now had with Victoria's information on it and the memory of the small kiss on the cheek, not one to usually get distracted, Milo jumped when his hammer missed the steel and clanged loudly on the anvil. He set the hammer down and went back to his apartment, not much else to do.

Final Round Armoury, Wednesday

Milo spent the majority of his day finishing a few pieces that had been contracted by some men out east, swordsmen that were in a competition circuit, much like he used to. When the blade was done he looked it over, a german longsword, his favorite, yet nothing like the one he made for himself, he gave it a few swings, checked the edge, the balance, then it was packed away to be shipped.... Milo had never been to the post office.... that was the one thing that he had to make sure he had looked for this week, instead he went to a party, this was not the week he had planned for.

Wednesday evening

Milo got on his bike with three long boxes strapped to his back, he took off down the road to try and find the post office, what a mess. He rode his bike towards the area he believed he had seen town hall, post offices are usually nearby, or at least a fedex or something, who knows, this was exactly how he had gotten into a mess the other day, maybe the city would lead him to another.

After Milo let the two people he was helping go outside of the building he sat down against the building, his leg was throbbing at this point, he probably wasn't going to be moving much tomorrow, he gave it a gentle rub and looked at the group. Miss Victoria was out here with their truck, she came over to him and thank him for helping get her sister out, and mentioning lunch, for a month, and then managing to slip something into his breast pocket. @PrinceAlexus

"It was no trouble, shame I couldn't get to the stage fast enough to prevent from her needing the help in the first place. I think you two should contact the cops about that." Milo said with moderate concern, both for the assault as well as medically.

Milo looked to the man that was seemingly getting his bearings back to him now, the young man gave him a bit of a nod in thanks, to which he returned, he knew what that was like, sometimes it was hard to accept the help, we always feel that we are the strongest around but it sometimes couldn't be further from the truth, that was something Milo knew too well. @Furiosa

Miss Marianlia offered a ride home, and honestly, he would have loved one, he wasn't sure how far he would be able to peddle his bike before this damned knee of his finally shut down on him, but he couldn't just leave his bike and honestly, he really didn't want to be seen limping to much more than he already has. He just planned on sitting here outside until he felt like his knee could handle the ride.

"Appreciate the offer but I will have to decline, I got my bike out front, can't leave it here, you guys go on you have way more to do than just running me about."

Also, I'm so intimidated by your character @RoccanIronclad and I don't know why, lol! He seems so buff and determined, ha ha.

@Furiosa

Definitely not what he would want, honor is honor at all times not just when it suits us.

He just wants to help.

When the drenched woman spoke he could tell that she was affected at least slightly by what had been poured in her mouth, these men were quite depraved to think that this was an acceptable action, but even as bad off as she was she was more concerned about the man that had been jumped on earlier, he seemed to be immobile as well and intoxicated. Milo knew that getting the girl out would be easy but the both of them would not, he wasn't sure how long he had left in this building before either flames or water overwhelm.

"Alright, hold on then, I will get you both out but it won't be comfortable."

Milo lifted Mali up and over his shoulder, instantly he felt his weak knee give a little, but this was no time for that kind of weakness, he moved to where the man lay on the ground and knelt down look at him.

"I'm going to help you out of here, hold on."

Milo grabbed the man under the arm and began to drag him toward the rear exit where Mali had said her truck was to be. His leg throbbed, he hadn't been recovering well enough to be putting this much strain on it yet but this was what happens, some men attack others and others are there to help, he only hoped that his leg would hold.

As Milo reached the rear exit with the two of them he set them down and looked about hoping to get a glimpse of Victoria in order hand this off.

"Miss Victoria!" He called.
