*Thousands of people and children alike were celebrating, mostly because of either the Vileblood's arrival or...just because. Some were drowning in beer, some brought their ladies along as they conversated, children were stuffing their faces, painting the nearby drones, or playing some nearby soccer. Others were shootings their guns (and even rockets) into the air, or shooting in the ranges.*
*One drunk guy falls unconscious on the floor in front of Irina, most likely from the amount of booze he drank. Some were conversing about Black-Market deals from all over Tatakai.*

[i]Only looking down at the man in front of her, Irina knew that she had to be somewhat civilized while she spent her time here. Of course she would. Of this was the Dojo, she'd step on the man, but her, she'd assist him. And she did just that. The Vileblood leaned down to lift him from the ground (considering her height and strength, that was actually somewhat possible), and patted him on the back before continuing to stroll down the street, silently smiling at the scenes of celebration.[/i]

*The man grudgingly got up, watching the Vileblood walk away before he drunk some more of his booze. A couple girls noticed the woman and dashed to her, their eyes widening at the weapons on her. One of the parents, a female assassin walked up to the Vileblood, recognizing her.* "Hey...you know, ever since Seraph up there announced that you were coming, some of the little ones started looking up to you. I mean, she told us of your muteness...she kinda said they may be able to recover your voice back. All you need to do is ask." She replies, offering her some ice cream. "Want some?" She asks, giving her some vanilla with sprinkles.
-
[i]The Vileblood was...shocked, to say the least. And for good reason. Everywhere she had gone, every village she had visited, she was remarked as a selfish, cruel monstrosity, and she wasn't even a killer at that point. Here...these people seemed to care. They treated her like a normal human. Only nodding and mouthing "Thank you." to the one speaking, Irina silently took the ice cream and bowed deeply towards the assassin. Irina only smiled down at the children, nodding towards them as well. She had found people that she legitimately cared for, and that was...something different for Irina. She hadn't felt like this since...some personal events.[/i]
-
*The children only giggled, as they heard yelling from a little boy, as they rushed over to him, leaving the assassin and the Vileblood there.* "I guess I'll be checking on those kids...and...thank you for helping us out." She responds, walking over to where te kids were going, leaving the Vileblood in the middle of the celebration, as singing and overall fun was happening. People were screaming from the balconies, some of them slumped over on the balconies of the houses.
-
[i]Irina only nodded towards the assassin, walking away and deeper into the city, lightly clutching the ice cream and taking small bites, although she couldn't really lick it. No jokes pls. She actually liked New Ilios now. The inhabitants were kind, the ones she fought for could benefit her tremendously...she would declare her loyalty soon, probably. Though it was probably about time to return to the Dojo. She began making her way back to Seraph, wherever she was, while still holding the ice cream she had been gifted. [/i]

*She sees Seraph waiting for her inside a bar, majorly talking with a bunch of assassins, as she held up bounties of some of the people at the Dojo. Fortunately, Alyssa wasn't on the list...but that didn't mean that others were being targeted as well. Seraph sees Irina.* "Ready to leave, I'm guessing?" She asks.
-
[i]Irina sighed in relief, nodding towards Seraph silently. She was definitely ready to get back, formulate her plans for Alyssa more, wipe out more threats...the usual.[/i]
-
"Good." She says, before screaming towards a pilot in Chinese, as he rushed toward the airfield nearby. ([i]15 min later)[/i] A VTOL starts to land in the Main Street, as Seraph guides Irina, as well as about 10 more assassins toward the ship, many giving their thanks, and some people giving Irina gifts, before they go into the VTOL.
-
[i]Irina bowed towards each and every person that thanked her, accepting each gift with a smile and a bow as well. She was...well, new to the positive attention, to say the least. It felt...surprisingly good. Getting into the VTOL, Irina leaned back against her seat and sighed happily, closing her light blue eyes while holding each gift carefully. It had been quite an interesting day, to say the least.[/i]
-
*Before she could close her eyes, Seraph walked up to her, as they took off.* "We know your feats...so in that regard, we'd like to give you a trophy you seemed to forgot." She replies, lighting up a familiar Darksaber, and hands it to Irina. "Consider it...a trophy for your success." She says, before returning to her seat, and sheathing out her katana, wiping it down.*
-
[i]Irina silently took the Darksaber, clutching the weapon tightly within her gloved hand. Sighing, she only grinned as she hooked the weapon's handle to her belt, leaning back in her chair once more. She had purpose anew, and those willing to support and benefit her in her battles. Irina couldn't be happier.[/i]

*The VTOL slowly made it's way back to the Dojo, as the rest of the journey was silent, taking them through the long night.* [spoiler]End?[/spoiler]

[spoiler]Sure. Noice.[/spoiler]
