SAINTS (1x1 w/DarkMukip)

She waved her hand, the tip of her cigarette glowing lightly.
“I couldn’t complete your request, only told you where you might find answers- that hardly deserves any thanks at all.” Megohime said that, but she did seem to enjoy the title she had earned, a proud glimmer in her eyes.
 
"Still, this will help tremendously...a thank you is the least I can say." She stood and bowed again before she left excitedly, putting the card in her pocket.
 
Amaya was on her way back to the bar from the storage cooler with a new case of beers to restock, noticing Akihime heading in the same direction.
“Was wondering where you had gone off to.” She greeted, slowing the dolly cart to a stop so she could talk.
“Everything ok?”
 
The case of beer was abandon where it was set instantly, Amaya moving closer so they could talk without being overheard.
“What did you find?”

Akihime pulled out the card and showed it to her, "I went to talk to Anesan...she must be in a really good mood, she didn't turn me away. She said we can start looking here...!"
 
Amaya raised an eyebrow at the card.
“An address.. wait, let me punch it in..” She had a sinking feeling as she typed the address off the card into her phones gps, finding it went into the next ward- completing the same path Sasuke took following Yukimura’s scent to the border of the ward.
She turned her phone to show Akihime, stomach stuck in her throat.
“I’ll send word to Sasuke, have him meet us.”
 
She nodded, taking the card back and pocketing it; Megohime said they needed it to get in after all.
"Should we go now?" She asked, "Should I get the suppressants?"
 
Amaya nodded, sending a short coded message for Sasuke to trace her location and to follow her there.
“Sasuke will meet us- I can drive.” She held up a set of car keys, one of the vans owned by Masamune that was used by his men for missions.
 
Amaya completely abandon the beer to the responsibility of the next passer-by, heading down to the garage quietly. She made sure the garage was empty before moving quickly, but calmly toward the van, unlocking it and getting into the drivers seat.
 
Akihime moved into her bedroom and pulled the case containing Yukimura's revolver and the suppressants from under the bed. She opened it to make sure everything was filled and ready before closing it and heading to meet up with Amaya.
 
Amaya looked up from her cell phone when Akihime arrived at the car, waiting for her to get in and buckle her seat belt before she put the car in drive to leave the estate.
“Sasuke will tail us to the location, we’ll make a plan on how to get Dana out when we arrive.”
 
Akihime nodded, keeping the case in her lap, "I just hope that the worst thing we have to deal with is Masamune. And even then, I don't know what to do about him."
 
“Hope he accepts begging as a form of penance.”
Amaya said, keeping her eyes on the road, cracking a slight smile to try and ease a bit of the tension.
 
“I’d love some pointers if you have any.” Amaya chuckled, turning onto the highway that would take them out of the ward where Yukimura had disappeared to.
 
"It's best to imagine you're trying to shove your face through the floor when you bow. Chanting please also seems to help." Akihime smiled, looking over at her companion.
 
Amaya laughed in amusement, nodding.
“I’ll make sure to practice my form.” She joked back.
When they arrived at the location, it was just outside the warehouse district in the next ward- the building well maintained, but not a single window was available to look inside of.
 
Akihime checked the address on the back of the card to make sure this was the right spot.
"Nothing screams inconspicuous like a windowless building." Sasuke remarked as he appeared behind them. Akihime turned to look back at him, smiling sheepishly.
"It's almost insultingly cliche."
 
“No one’s going to ask the Yakuza boss what he’s hiding inside.” Amaya said with a shrug, turning the van off and turning in her seat to see Sasuke and Akihime at the same time.
“You said you had a way inside, right?” She asked Akihime.
 
Akihime nodded, holding up the card, "Anesan said this was our ticket in."
"Anesan? You've been working too much, Aki." Sasuke poked. Akihime flushed deeply and laughed.
"I guess so, huh?"
 
“Date’s the true embodiment of a slavedriver.” Amaya said, shaking her head.
“Give her some slack.” She looked at the card in Akihime’s hand.
“Well, hoping this isn’t a trap of some kind, are we heading through the front door?”
 
Akihime nodded and opened the gun case, holstering the gun after she loaded the suppressants. Sasuke pulled his mask off with a sigh.
"I can only assume what kind of state dana is in." He muttered. Akihime smiled wearily.
"That's why I brought this."
 
Amaya took a deep breath before exiting the car, her quinque knife tucked into her jacket out of sight.
“Good thing we took the van after all.” She mused, knowing they’d likely have to carry Yukimura out.
