Waiting For An Alibi [Private]

[Shinrya Kitsune]

Well. It was time. Kitsune was sitting at a nice little café in the Susukino District, drinking a cup of hot tea, as she pondered things. It was quite the job offer she had received only two weeks ago. And finally, she had decided to accept it. So she went to the phone booth near the café, dialed the number she was given, specifically, 1-800-4636633, and told the person on the other end that she’d accept the job. Assuming that she’d be picked up by Titan employees, she let them know where they could find her, and that she’d be waiting.

So far so good, right? It’d be interesting to see who would show up to escort her to the island. Kitsune highly doubted it’d be Tomikan Taro, as he was probably elbow deep in a pawn, or some other technological wonder. Maybe the guy that had escorted Masahiro when he visited the estate? Knowing them, they’ll be here rather swiftly. They tend to show up unexpectedly often. Maybe they’re already at the café? Who knows… she pondered.

Either way she’d be there, waiting for them, drinking tea and eating little biscuits shaped like hearts and filled with various types of crème. They really weren’t bad Kitsune decided. She’d have to find out who made them and get them to reveal the secret. Or at least try and contract them to make a sizeable stockpile for the mansion. With Kitsunes appetite for sweet things, they’d be gone in an instant.

Tap. Tap. Tap.

Steps would be heard approaching Kitsune from behind. Ichiro approached with a [Default] stare looking at the back of her head. He approached as far to get confirmation of her facial identity before stepping. "Shinrya Kitsune. The administration thanks you for accepting their offer. Unfortunately, the welcome will have to come later." he begins.

"I have been assigned to accompany with you on a mission. I have a squad of soldiers waiting outside of the village who will accompany us to the north. We need your medical skills to assist us. Will you comply?" he said. While normally a persons voice would change throughout a sentence, his did not. It was obvious generated artificially. It seemed he also cared little for the pleasantries that humans exchanged.

Kitsune uncrossed her legs and got off the chair with a sly smile. ”Why of course, artificial person-kun.” she said and turned to face him. The tone of voice indicated male, and the obvious artificial properties told Kitsune all she needed to know about the other person. ”Why don’t we get going then, hm?” she suggested and called over a waiter to pay for the biscuits and tea, leaving a big tip for the waiter. Kitsune then turned back to face the artificial being and gestured for them to begin walking. The gates wouldn’t be too far away from here, but north was a rather broad description in regards to their destination.

”North, hm? How far north exactly?” she asked as they walked. It was impossible to get a read on Ichiro given his synthetic nature, but she had to give it a shot to learn just how advanced this being was. Ideally Kitsune would want to learn everything she could before she’d have to actually do something. And seeing as this case involved her medical expertise, it was bound to be something interesting. Well, she hoped anyways. Even more curious, well, to Kitsune at least, was the fact that soldiers seemed to be involved. That probably meant that this was a sort of loyalty test. Or at the very least a test to see if Kitsune was Titan material at all. It’d be in her best interest to just do as they wanted, so she wouldn’t appear suspicious. Secret mission or not, they needed her assistance, and she’d give it.

"I forgot to introduce myself. Apologies. I am known by the name Ichiro." he quickly interjected when she first referred to him as artificial person. Thankfully, she was ready to get started, and he obliged. He kept pace along side her as she inquired about the trip they would soon take.

"A village in the northern most province. It's going to be cold, but that Will of Fire should keep you warm." he said, a small smile actually forming on his face for some reason or another.

"I will fill you in on the situation when we arrive. It will be easier to show you rather than tell you." he concluded.
