There weren't many things that made Emily Sato angry.
Okay, that was a flat out lie and everyone who happened to know her could testify. No, Ms. Sato was an angry person by trade, and one thing happened to piss her off more than most things. And that was thieves. Seeing as where her alliances happened to sit in the city of Novus, that fact might have come as a small surprise. Really, she didn't give two shits about people stealing from each other - it was just the moment someone touched her shit that the permanent frown on her face grew into a snarl.
And this time? Oh, she was out for blood.
Two weeks. She had spent two damnable weeks working on that security dampening hardware, only to have it snatched away by some idiot that more than likely couldn't tell the front end of a soda bottle from a socket wrench. If there was one thing she missed about living in the higher ranks, it was knowing full well people wouldn't touch her shit. Why did people have to touch her shit?
"Hey. I need to talk to the fucker in charge. Now." She snapped her fingers at the guard once she arrived, black lips pulling into a sneer when they looked down at her small stature and gave a laugh. "Look, I don't have all day. Your people stole something from my people, and unless you want a lovely load of bloodshed on your hands, I suggest you let me past. I know it's here because there is a tracking device in the thing, so don't try and weasel your way out of this."
Entirely a bluff, really. She didn't have any 'people'. She was freelance, going where the wind decided she needed to be for the day. But they didn't need to know that while a pair of red eyes stared them down, the piercings on her lips only making her scowl all the more prominent.
"That's what I thought." She said with a scoff after the silent person stepped to the side to let her into the building. Now all she had to do was follow the device and she would be home free. She didn't want to deal with any more idiots than she needed to. It was already shaping up to be a long day.

Down this hall, turn to the right, and then her device should have been right there. Really, she didn't even want to talk to the person in charge. No doubt she'd chew their ass out and then end up getting - 1) A fistful of teeth, or 2) a person on her 'death roster'. She really didn't need to have a group of vigilantes come after her for killing their boss. But that was why she kept Lightning Magix stashed in her glove, as well as a few vials of poison. Couldn't be too careful in the Slums.
A sigh bubbled past her lips once she turned down the hall. Footsteps caught her attention, and she quickly moved out of sight until the person was gone. Her hiding had always proven difficult thanks to her bright white hair, but she didn't ever want to change it. Sure, the heavy makeup she wore covered the fact she was albino, but that didn't mean she was going to change her hair too. Black was just her color. Lack of color. Shade. Whatever. She liked it.
The bleep on her handheld grew as she approached a cracked door, the sound of music pouring from the room. Her device was in there somewhere, but there was also someone else. Tsk. Emily clicked her tongue in annoyance, tapping her foot while she tried to devise a plan of quick entry and retrieval.
Fuck it.
Her hands took hold of the door, opening it just enough to poke her head in and look around. Couch, table, chair, folded screen... Wait, what? There was no sense trying to deny her curiosity of what might have been behind screen number one. There might have been something good she could take - seeing as the group had a bad case of sticky fingers.
Emily stepped into the room silently, closing the door behind her and making sure it gave a solid 'click' before she crept towards the screen. Her gloved hand reached out and gripped the side of the screen, her head rounding the corner a moment later to take a look at what her prize happened to be.
What she didn't expect was a man in a tube. But she sure as hell stayed there and stared.

The kid had legs for days, that was the first thing Emily noticed. Normally she wasn’t one to, you know, stand there and stare at someone while they were in a bath – but he was just sitting there shaking his hair out and looking so relaxed. She was surprised there was even a tub like that in the slums, but she couldn’t forget where she was. The awkward bit happened when their eyes met.
Emily froze just like he did, though her eyes flicked down towards his chest for a moment before going back up once he moved. Her grip tightened on the screen as he pointed a weapon at her… Wait, was that a… No, no way he was that stupid. She had seen idiots in her day, but to think he pulled out a damnable taser. She didn’t even really register what he said, her hand snapping out to try and take hold of his wrist.
“Are you a fucking idiot?!” She snarled at him, the frown on her face deepening as she flicked her gaze between his face ( and chest. damn son if only she wasn’t so short she could see a bit more — though that might have been embarrassing. She’d totally have looked. ) and the taser. “You’re in a tub of water and you pull out a taser. Are you looking to kill yourself, or did your good looks just happen to also sap out all the brainpower you’ve got in that useless thing you call a skull?”
A hand rose to pinch the bridge of her nose as she sighed.
“Why must I suffer with idiots so often. Put your toy away before you hurt yourself, pretty boy.”

[/s]...) Well, back to the matter at hand... "Leave," he stated shortly. (Are you lost? Didn't your mother tell you not to talk to strange men? was what he really wanted to ask.) "I don't know who you are, but I'm in the middle of something," he stared piercingly at her, "and I am not a pedophile." If she didn't...well...things were going to get messy...and awkward. Maybe even violent. Hopefully it didn't get to any of that.[/ul]

Water droplets hit her cheek when he pulled his arm away, an unimpressed look on her face. 'Done yet', said the asshole that thought it was a good idea to keep that sort of thing by a tub. Her eyes never left him as he pulled the weapon's trigger. Was he trying to look cool? It really seemed like he was trying to look cool. It was almost endearing - and she was going to comment on it until he said something else.
"Not a... Oh my god, you think I'm a kid. A kid that's coming onto you." A throaty scoff left Emily to try and suppress the sniggering that wanted to be set free. A hand rose to cover her mouth, the laughter pouring from her lips as she turned away from him and waved a hand in a way to tell him to wait until the episode had passed. Tears formed in the corner of her eyes as she slowly began to calm herself down, making certain she didn't smear her makeup. Having tears roll down would have been awful and only make her look terrifying. She just wanted her device, but here she was talking to a man in a tub. Lovely.
"I'm 18, you ass. I get that I'm short, but damn. A pedophile? How young do I look?" Her arms crossed, a brow raising under her thick bangs. She didn't so much as move, only shifting her weight to one leg while she stared. [/font]"You're really awful at giving reasons for people to leave, I hope you know. And that little stunt?" She tilted her chin in the direction of the taser gun. "I'm guessing that wasn't your shining moment."
Her shoulders shrugged and she moved to lean against his tub near where his feet were, making certain to not actually look into the water lest she accidentally lose her cool. She was doing pretty well so far. If it was a battle of keeping your 'cool', she would win out. Even if her temper made her an eternal flame.
"Also I'm not leaving until I get my device back. Do you happen to know where to leader of this merry band of misfits is? I have quite a few words to throw in their direction involving property rights." She glanced over her shoulder towards his face ( NOT IN THE DIRECTION OF HIS LOWER HALF GOOD GOD IT WAS HARD TO NOT LOOK ).
"So if you could point me in that direction, I'd appreciate it."
Still no name given with no intention to do so. Why should she? Especially when he had pointed a weapon at her.

[/i], but honestly if he was caught here, with someone who looked underage, there was no way he could explain it properly. Hence, a pedophile. Great. And it wasn't like he could do anything productive while she was here, being he was...naked and all. But eighteen? Eighteen? Peering closer, Kris shrugged after a moment. Well, with that makeup, she could've been any age, really. At his comment about his taser gun stunt though, Kris sighed, again, and put a hand to his face. "I..." he began calmly. "Am...taking...a... bath," he enunciated, glaring at her with a hand covering half his face. Damn. The water was getting cold. And Kris just wanted to enjoy a nice bath and get clean somewhere that wasn't the dirty, cramped slums. This was the first he'd heard of a device being stolen though. God dammit, had one of his guys gone and taken something from another...vigilante - she had to be one, to be here after all...He didn't want to explain that he wasn't the only group in this building, but whether he revealed himself or not...his coolness meter probably would drop a few points. He'd have to figure it out eventually though, there wasn't much helping the situation. It was quite amusing to see her struggle with morality though - to look or not to look, that is the question. Kris wanted to laugh so bad, and tease her - what's wrong, can't keep your eyes off my handsome face?Instead, Kris closes his eyes and sinks further into the cooling lukewarm water. One eye opens, staring at her. "If I tell you, will you leave me alone?" Of course she wouldn't, he sighs mentally. Her personality just seemed that...angry.[/ul]

A slight dusting of color rose to Emily's cheeks as he looked closer. Shit, she was losing her cool. She inhaled deeply and held it until he pulled back and shrugged, letting it out slowly to calm herself down. All she needed to do was make a snarky comment and get back in control of the situation, then everything would be fine. And he gave the perfect set up.
"Would you like company for that?" Boom. Perfect. She didn't miss a beat when he make it a point he was taking a bath. Was she supposed to think otherwise? Why else would someone be in a tub of water? Unless he had some aquatic gene mod, which she doubted. So much sighing though, you'd think he wasn't happy with her presence.
"Depends if I like the answer or not, pretty boy." If there was one thing Emily happened to be, it was stubborn as hell. Even if he answered her well, she'd find a reason to bother him. Though, better to make things more interesting. With a shake of her hand, Emily pulled out a Lightning Magix stick, the symbol clearly etched onto the container. She twirled it between her fingers before clenching it in her fist and turning to lean her elbows on the edge of his tub. Still avoiding looking him over aside from the chest up. Him sliding down some helped with that.
"I really don't like it when people touch my shit. Especially not tech I've been working on for quite some time. Accidents tend to happen." Growing up in Upper Class had really helped her poker face, there was no doubt there. She wouldn't actually hurt the guy unless he made a move first, but what could he do? He was naked, wet, and trying to not look like a total loser. Had to be hard in his situation. And as long as he didn't actually stand up and flash... Everything, she was fine. Totally fine. It was like a day at the beach.

[/i] or how fast does this thing turn on with me, do you?" And with that, Kris smirked and began to sit up, tucking a leg below him with every intention of standing up and exiting the tub. (turn on. Hah. turn-on. could she resist? was she even capable of blushing? He was so funny in his head.)[/ul]
