Vignir had made a figure that looked exactly like the female and he showed it here. Kate was curious about the male and how he made the figure. Also there was something else that made her interested in the male, something that she could not describe so easily. It was a feeling she was having when she was looking at him, when she was smiling of what he have said. Because of that she now was walking with him to a restaurant, not that she really was hungry and after that short trip in the air she did not wanted to think of food at all, but just to be polite, she went with him. But that’s not the only reason. She liked being with him, to know him better. So she would get friends with him. Because he was a Weapon, like her she was curious about his powers. Kate has seen already a bit of what he was able to do: A partial transformation, and it was more then what she was able to do. After a short walk, Kate saw a cute little restaurant that did not looked that extraordinary and not too quiet or too busy. It was just simply perfect. She glanced at Vengir to see his reaction, not sure what his taste for food was and if this was a good restaurant or not. From what Kate was seeing it was a restaurant that was serving all kind of things. So she just asked him that: “Is this something?” She said as she pointed at the restaurant. Kate liked the restaurant; she often went here to take a quick lunch. The food was delicious and there was so many choices. The staff who was working there was friendly, and it never was that busy, which was something Kate did not wanted. Especially not now. Also the interior was looking comfy, but not romantic. Not something she wanted yet. Yet? The idea of doing something romantic together was making her blush. So this means she was in love? How would she know it for sure, after all she hardly knew him? She has met him only a short moment ago.

They'd been walking together for a while when Kate pointed out a restaurant she seemed to want to go into. Vingnir obliged, following his new acquaintance into the place. It was quite a cosy restaurant, with a warm feel to it. Not with the prestige of an establishment that advertised candle-lit dinners, per say, but the restaurant had character. In short, Vinny liked it.

The smell of food brought a smile to the demon weapon's face.

"Something? THIS IS GREAT! THANKS KATE!" Responded Vingnir. He rushed past the clerk, flashing his Shibusen student lisence, and found a table for he and his new best friend to sit at. He waited for Kate to come over before ordering, though. Once his companion did sit down with him, Vingnir waved over a waiter. He'd looked at the menu, and decided upon a fillet of steak. There was a discount for Shibusen students in this restaurant, it seemed, for there was a price with a Shinigami icon next to it.

Vinny slid the menu over the table to Kate. After she ordered, he would ask;

"So..Kate, we never really talked that much. What uhm..what brings you to Death City? Do you go to Shibusen?"

[atrb=style, font-family: Tahoma; word-spacing: 1px; text-align: justify; background: #ffffff; opacity:0.7; border: 3px solid #fd813b; color: #000000] Kate first had expected that Vignir would not like it, because it was a restaurant that looked too cozy and that she maybe had another meaning with choosing this restaurant. However his reaction was completely different of what she had expected. It even surprised her to see him so excited. Before she realized what was going on he made his way through the restaurant to find a place for both of them. Normally Kate would be embarrassed about this, and would pretend not to know the person, but now she just could not help it and laughed. He was so amusing and sure was able to make her smile all the time. She followed the Rocket Hammer Weapon to the place he was sitting and sat down. Placing her bag next to her she sat on the other side, facing him. A smile appeared on her face as she saw his eager face, looking around for a waiter to order food. He really seemed to be hungry, and the scents all around them of the food she started to get hungry too. However she did ordered only a salad with vegetables and fish, because it was a light food, and she loved to eat fish. The waiter took their order and left to give it to a cook. Then Vingir started the conversation with saying they haven’t talked much together, which was obvious because they didn’t even knew each other for such a long time. It was funny to notice that she knew from him that he was a Weapon, but she never showed or told him. Not that she can show it, as she is not able to do a partial transformation. “I’m here for.. a month now.” She said after thinking, and counting of how long she was here. “I’m going to Shibusen, yes. I’m learning to control my powers as a Weapon.” She explained. “I noticed you are a Weapon too, and that you are able to do a partial transformation. That’s interesting.” For her it was at least interesting, because she simply wasn’t able to do anything like that, and she could only change when she team up with a Meister that has the same soul wave. “I’m a weapon with a Shield form. I already have seen yours, but I can’t show mine. Not being able to do a partial transformation.” She said with a grin, also she looked around and made a movement with her hand. As if she wanted to scare away a fly. “Also this maybe not be the right place for that.” She sure was talking allot more then she normally would do to a stranger, but for already the short time she knew him, he did not felt a stranger at all. “So what about you? Why are you here? “She said to give him the chance to explain why he was here, probably the same reason as her, but she at least wanted to give him the chance to tell his reasons. As a weapon it is obvious to go to that school, to pair up with a Meister and to save the world from any danger, to reclaim the kishin eggs and get stronger. For a moment she felt disappointed that he was also a weapon and not a Meister, she sure would not mind to team up with him.

[cloudman]

“I’m here for.. a month now.” said Kate as she sat down, answering Vingnir's question. The demon weapon gave his companion a smile. Being with Kate made him feel kind of warm...which was odd, since the only warm thing he'd been near recently was the hot metal of his sculptures. Kate continued.

“I’m going to Shibusen, yes. I’m learning to control my powers as a Weapon. I noticed you are a Weapon too, and that you are able to do a partial transformation. That’s interesting.” At this point she paused, clearly taking an interest in Vingnir's ability to partially transform. This perplexed the demon weapon - he thought all demon weapons could do a partial transformation? He was proved wrong by Kate's next few words.

“I’m a weapon with a Shield form. I already have seen yours, but I can’t show mine. Not being able to do a partial transformation.” She explained, obviously reacting to the confused expression upon Vinny's face. Wordlessly he gestured that he understood.

The waiter came over with a selection of drinks, and Vingnir took the glass of lemonade. He loved lemonade; the slight tang and the bubbles just worked on so many levels for him. Vinny sipped, and the ever-present smile on his face grew at the taste. The demon weapon could detect a hint of pulp - another selling point; this restaurant used real lemons. Kate asked a question, but Vinny hesitated to answer. He was a little reluctant to leave his drink, truth be told. After a pause, he put down the glass - savouring each rivulet of the tangy yellow liquid on his lips - and said;

"Uhm, well my parents were both students at Shibusen, so I guess that's one reason. I'm not too sure why they sent me though...although it's not like I didn't want to come - people back home would dream of coming here! I come from Iceland, by the way. I reckon that the places are better here for forging anyway...I kinda wanna get into golem making." Vingnir's mind wandered as he talked. He said what he meant though; the demon weapon truly hadn't thought too much about why he came.

The waiter came back, insistent on procuring an order from Vingnir's companion.

"So..what would you like, little miss?"

[atrb=style, font-family: Tahoma; word-spacing: 1px; text-align: justify; background: #ffffff; opacity:0.7; border: 3px solid #fd813b; color: #000000] She was not quite proud about the fact that she could not do any partial transformation. The shocked emotion on his face was revealing that it was not normal for a weapon not to be able to do that. Which means she was again just an extraordinary person which surely wasn’t meant as a positive thing. It made her feel uncomfortable and she looked at him for a moment before looking away from him, not quite sure what to say about it. His reaction already was enough for her to explain everything. She was a failure. The waiter was there for the drinks and he gave Vignir a glass of lemonade and she also took a glass of lemonade. It was a sweet taste and it was nice and refreshing. However she changed the subject and now he was the one to talk. The reason why he was at Shibusen, was basically the same like her. His parents where a team just like hers. For him the reason was maybe not clear but for her it was. It was part of a family, like a tradition. Well for hers at least, so maybe also for his family. It also was her dream and biggest wish to get to this school. She had expected everyone would have dreamed of it because the whole job to do was amazing and exciting. Vignir however did not dreamed about it at all, he even sounded like he disliked to be here. He was more interested into forging items. He was quite good at it that was for sure. She just wanted to make a comment about it when a waiter came back with trying to get an order out of her. She smiled at him and gave her order. “I want the fish salad please.” The one she had seen on the menu. After taking the scents in for a while it had made her hungry so now she sure would like to eat something. The waiter wrote it down and disappeared again so Kate turned to Vignir again. “You sure are good at forging, and your weapon form helps allot.” She reached at the bag next to her and picked her sketch book out of it. “I’m not good at forging, but I prefer drawing more.” She said, opening it at the image she had drawn the moment before Vignir talked to her, but then turned the page to a new, blank page. “You made a forged model of me, I should make a drawing of you later for sure.” She said with a grin as her eyes sparkled in enjoyment. “If you like it or not.” After all she did not had asked for it either, and he made it while she did not knew. She sure would do the same of him. Draw him on a moment he did not expected it. The idea of it made a red blush appear on her face. Now she was thinking of it, how she said it and now that she was blushing everything was just.. So wrong. It sounded way too much on a way she did not want it to sound. “Never mind… Forget that.” She said as she waved with her hand as if she could rmove it all just what she had said.

[cloudman]

“I’m not good at forging, but I prefer drawing more.” Said Kate after ordering. Vingnir shrugged; he didn't expect everyone to be good at metalwork. Still, Kate's skill in drawing was something the demon weapon didn't doubt for a second.

“You made a forged model of me, I should make a drawing of you later for sure...If you like it or not.” At this Vingnir's face formed a blank expression. Of all the times he'd dished out lavish gifts on others, not once had he received anything in return. As he thought about it, that weird warm feeling grew stronger, causing the demon weapon to blush. He smiled, both because he really liked the girl sat across from him, and also because his steak arrived. Vinny dived in, attacking the meat with abandon. He was so enthusiastic about his eating, that he forgot all that was said beforehand.

“Never mind… Forget that.” Therefore, it was a surprise to Vingnir that he had been told to forgot something. How could he forget something he didn't remember? It was puzzling. Deciding to go with the flow, Vingnir played along.

"Forget what?" He grinned. Kate's food arrived too, and conversation started to flow more freely. Vingnir finished his food in record time, and decided to just sit and observe the demon shield before him.

"Wow..you're beautiful..." He would have said under his breath, had he any idea of tact and secrecy. Rather, Vinny said this at conversational volume, and as such it wasn't too hard to hear him. Some eyes flickered towards their table as he said it, but returned to what they were doing.

He sure knew how to attract attention.

[atrb=style, width: 200px; height: 150px;]
[atrb=style, font-family: Tahoma; word-spacing: 1px; text-align: justify; background: #ffffff; opacity:0.7; border: 3px solid #fd813b; color: #000000] He did not knew what to forget? Wait.. Did he even listened at all? Kate felt a bit annoyed by the fact he did not seem to listen at all since the food was there, but maybe now it was a good thing because she would sure feel embarrassed if he had noticed what she just had said. It wasn’t a good idea to repeat it. Plus she had no idea how to make it sound like she would not go hide into bushes or closets to be able to make a sketch of him on a unexpected moment. She would not even dare too.. Plus.. Hide in a closet? They don’t even life together. A bright red blush was covering her cheeks and she could feel the heat of it on her face. Embarrassed about her own thoughts she took a nip of her drink and started at her salad. Different then Vingir who basically seem to dig into the food, she eat more slower, really enjoying the taste of the food. Vingir however finished his food quite faster than her and she smiled at him, as she looked back at her plate, which was now more than half full. Then she noticed what he had said. That she was beautiful and again she turned red, shy of the comment. She knew she wasn’t an ugly person, but she never really saw herself as a beautiful female, and never really know how to deal with compliments. “Uhm.. Thanks.” She whispered with a shy smile. She was noticing the sound of his comment and a few persons had turned their faces to them to look who was made the comment. She felt shy, but she really liked him and she felt like she could be herself without being ashamed. “You are quite handsome too.” Kate said with a smile. “You know what is a pity, that we both are Meisters. I sure would like to team up as Meister and Weapon.” It secretly had been her dream, and sadly this male was just like her: a Weapon, and for as much she knew two Weapons could not team up. “Do you have a Meister?” She asked, curious if this amazing person also was having a Meister, while she who could not be able to any partial transformation did not even had a Meister. Meanwhile she finished her food. The taste was delicious and it sure was just amazing as this whole moment. Kate only knew him for a short time, but she sure is glad she met him.

[cloudman]

She heard his statement, and returned the compliment. Vingnir smiled. That was all agreed then. They were both good looking. Still, she seemed slightly taken aback; her cheeks turning a shade of rosy red. Chuckling to himself at how timid Kate seemed to be, Vingnir listened intently as to what she had to say next. After all, the demon shield appeared to be ever so slightly miffed at the fact that the rocket hammer hadn't been listening.

“You know what is a pity, that we both are Weapons. I sure would like to team up as Meister and Weapon.” Yeah...that didn't sound too bad an idea; team up with Kate. He sure would have done it. Vinny nodded his head in agreement. Kate continued the thought, inquiring;

“Do you have a Meister?” Vingnir's face lit up. Talking about himself was one of his talents.

"Sure I do! My partner's name is Inverno Costa; white hair, a little shorter than I am. He's pretty cool. We haven't started training or anything yet - it's early days." He said. The demon rocket hammer smiled as he thought about his shy meister.

"You know, we met in a graveyard. Wanna hear the story?"

[atrb=style, width: 200px; height: 150px;]
[atrb=style, font-family: Tahoma; word-spacing: 1px; text-align: justify; background: #ffffff; opacity:0.7; border: 3px solid #fd813b; color: #000000] It surprised Kate that he mentioned that he and his Meister had met on a Graveyard. Not the most common place to meet up with your partner, and it more sounded like some secret clan meeting then a first time meeting between a Meister and Weapon. Also Vignir did not really seem to be quite a dark person. Not even close to that. He more was a bright and breezy person that would deal with depressed and dark persons like a tornado, making sure they would get a smile on their face. It also made her more disappointed, because he already had a Meister, just as he was able to do a partial transformation and overall seemed to be quite good in control of his powers. He was like an example Kate wanted to become, but she still had a long way to go. She had no Meister, and could not do any partial transformation. There where so many things she still needed to learn, no wonder she would get the feeling she was a total failure sometimes. But, now she just had to listen to Vingir, as he had offered to tell the story about the meet up between the two and how they became a team. Forgetting her own troubles, she was always interested in the stories of others. They were so cool, powerful and everything was just perfect. Kate always liked to listen to those kinds of stories, because she had the feeling she could learn of them. Just like she had done with the stories from her parents. “Sure.” She said as she answered on his question if she wanted to hear the story. “A graveyard is not the most common place, so it makes me curious why you exactly meet on such a place, while there are so many other more fitting places.”

[cloudman]

"Sure" Her willingness to let him divulge the story only served to make him happier. Vingnir smiled, coughed, and began the story; only stopping to take sips of his lemonade.

"Okay, so I was in the graveyard, and at the time I didn't know why -- Inverno told me later that it was to meet him, but still -- so I just busied myself and uhm, read the paper. There wasn't any places to sit down so I sat on this table-looking-gravestone-thing, that was for a guy who was killed by a table or something." He said, pausing to let his preamble sink in. It was also a good idea to take a breath at this point, for he talked with a child's enthusiasm and a sprinter's pace.

"Anyway, I didn't know I was waiting for Inverno, so I just played around. I had this rad monster truck thing that I made for class, and I drove it around. It exploded though; the water gun's pressure was too high. I've got tons more at home, so there's no rush in fixing it. At this point, Inverno comes in, all shy like. It's pretty funny 'cause at first I thought I was sitting on his friend's grave or something, and had a mini-freak out, but it was cool 'cause he introduced himself. And, as they say, the rest is history..." He trailed off, leaving plenty gap for Kate to ask questions about his story. It wasn't anything too fancy, and there was no real reason it should have been; two people meeting in a cemetery was nothing to baulk at. At least, in Vinny's mind it wasn't.

But then again, this was the guy who was oblivious to all social faux pas.

[atrb=style, font-family: Tahoma; word-spacing: 1px; text-align: justify; background: #ffffff; opacity:0.7; border: 3px solid #fd813b; color: #000000] It maybe still did not explained why someone would meet up in a Graveyard and Kate wondered who this Inverno person was. The name sure was awesome, as it had something special and original. It was a name that was filled with power. Her name, which was just Kate, was totally unoriginal with that. But she was happy with it, and maybe this person was only an arrogant guy, just because he was having such a cool name and knew it. Not that she would go and hate on someone she did not knew yet, so her whole impression of him was quite blank. But again, it was weird. She smiled as she listened to the rest of his short story. It was a short story and she had expected it to be longer with more details, but probably Vignir was not the type of person to talk like that and was direct and straight to the point. Because it was so short she was having many questions, but she just did not wanted to ask too much, so she stayed quiet. A long silence followed but suddenly interrupted with loud voices that came closer, and eventually a small group entered the café. A group of four young adults, one female and three male where talking loud and it was easy to see they were not here for just a visit. Kate, who always preferred to stay out of trouble kept an eye on the group. If she was able to see that they would cause real problem she would find a way to get out as fast as possible. Automatically she grabbed the bag and hold it closer to her in a reflex, without losing them out of her sight. “Look.” She said more in a whisper as she tried to make Vignir notice them without too much sound or movement. “They are not here for some quiet and friendly visit.” As if he could not notice them himself. It is not that they are sneaky or anything. She just wanted to say something because it would hide her emotions. Or at least she tried, because she was getting worried about the whole situation. Kate could not really fight them, but maybe Vignir could. If of course it was needed, she did not wanted to cause any problem. “I wonder what they want.” Maybe they would get away when they would just sit quiet and don’t do anything stupid.

[cloudman]

“Look...They are not here for some quiet and friendly visit.” Vinny's head whipped around to look at what Kate was referring to. His eyes locked on four people around a table, who didn't seem to be eating anything. Rather, they seemed to busy themselves by staring around the restaurant; almost as if they were surveyors. They looked suspicious, and Vinny didn't like them.

"I've got a bad feeling about those guys." He said to Kate, turning back momentarily to put a reassuring hand on hers. The demon weapon looked back again, not wanting to miss a minute of what the four dubious fellows were doing.

“I wonder what they want.” Said Kate. Vingnir nodded in agreement, accompanying the action with a "Hmm". Deciding to find out with his trusty sense of tact as the spearhead of the investigation, the rocket hammer said;

"HEY! TABLE OVER THERE, WITH THE FOUR! YEAH, YOU! WHAT DO YA WANT?" That seemed to set them off. The group of four instantly stood up, two of the men brandishing knives, the other man a baseball bat and the woman a bag. It wouldn't have been Vingnir's choice of weapon, but he couldn't really complain that the people with malicious intent weren't well-equipped. One of the men, who had burning brown eyes and a slightly crazy air about him, seemed to be the leader. He spoke, holding a knife out menacingly to the rest of the restaurant.

"Everyone can go apart from those two! I want that dress! I shall have that dress! My fashion store will be the best in Nevada!" The other restaurant goers didn't leave however, rather choosing to stick to the walls and watch what was going on. It seems that the saturation of Shibusen students in Death City gave the civilians a sense of security; any 'bad eggs' would be dealt with soon enough, there was always one or two meisters or weapons around. Sure enough, in this case Kate and Vingnir happened to fit the bill. The demon rocket hammer jumped from his seat and into the middle of the space, which had been cleared somehow.

"Leave Kate alone! No one, and I mean NO ONE threatens my girlfriend!" He cried throwing a punch. He didn't catch the man off guard, however, whom subsequently blocked with his elbow.

REVERSAL!

[atrb=width,240] He wanted what? She needed a moment to realize what the man had said: That he wanted her dress and automatically she folded her arms for her chest, as if it would protect her from everything. No way he would get her dress. It did not even was that special? Shocked she looked from Vingnir to the small group. Okay things where getting problematic because they were with more and she did not even really counted herself as a fighter, as she was not that strong. She was fast but clumsy, and it could end up differently. It could end up she wins a challenge or it ends up losing foolishly. However this time failing was not an option. Because well… It would not be something she wanted to think about. “You can’t” She said with a voice that was nothing more than a whisper and she stood up, ready to get away from the group. Yet before she even tried of running away Vingnir had jumped in the middle of the action, leaving her there standing stunned by the amount of courage the other weapon was having. She realized she could not just stand back and watch. She could not let him do all the hard work. She placed her bag back on the seat and made her way next to Vingnir, looking a bit insecure at the group, not really sure what to do but when Vingnir made his way to the person who seemed to be the leader she had to avoid an attack of one of the other gang members. As fast as she could she moved out of the way, almost tripping over her own shoes, but she at least had avoided that one move. “Vingnir, I can’t do any partial transformation.” She said loud, with a voice that almost was at the point of getting hysterical. She could not fight at all. She needed a Meister, it always have been like that and still will be like that until she would learn more. Again she avoided an attack, running through the restaurant from one side to the other and to dive under a table fast enough, only causing her attacker to tumble on the table. This avoiding move was at least successful and as she saw how the table felt over the attacker she smiled. She could at least use everything around her to fight. Maybe a chair or a few glasses would do the job.

[cloudman]

Vingnir stumbled backwards, only slightly dazed from the consequences of his failed attack. Being at Shibusen had only helped his natural durability, and as such he hardly even felt the subsequent punch after the elbow-block. Vingnir righted himself, and cast a glance over to Kate. With any luck, she wouldn't have seen that. As it happened, his girlfriend was being pursued, but had managed to get herself to safety for the time being. Sighing a sigh of relief, Vingnir turned back to the man he was currently figthing.

"Hey! Come back here!" It turned out that he had decided to go after Kate as well; the dress she wore being more important to them than anything at the moment. Vingnir dived at the man's feet, tackling him to the ground before moving onto his chest and pinning him. A red light surrounded his right hand, which soon disappeared, only to be replaced by a red hammer. It was adorned with white wings. Not too threatening, one would think, until one factors in the fact that it just came out of a guy's arm and was being waved in one's face. Besides, it was on the large size, and stored within was a powerful rocket thruster.

"Leave her alone or this guy gets it!" Yelled Vingnir, his voice keeping all his secrets. The secret was, of course, that he was scared out of his skin. What did they want with Kate? What if they kidnapped her?

He'd probably need backup...

[Rocton]

As the fight erupted, Rocton sat half dazed on his table near the back corner of the shop. He'd been sleepy all day from having to put up with droning teachers in school and he had hoped the coffee would wake him up long enough to walk home without collapsing and falling asleep on the streets.

It had been quite interesting to watch the commotion as the rest of the patrons of the small shop backed up against the wall and crowded Rocton's once solitary and peaceful area. He grunted a bit but knew it was best not to stir anyone or call any attention to himself till he was ready.

His arm slipped down to find his holster and next his gun. The .45 1911, Sally, was ready now and all it needed was a signal. The big guy who seemed to have a penchant for dresses began fighting the demon something kid who seemed to be a weapon with a type of thrust ability. The other was just running, ducking under tables, and trying to avoid the attacker with knives. She yelled something out about not being able to do a partial transformation which either meant she was a meister or a demon weapon with some lack of training. He started picking targets in his mind and began to grip his pistol tighter.

"Leave her alone or this guy gets it!"

The little demon kid shouted as he held the leader hostage. It was doubtful that such a tactic would work. The others either cared little for him or would only capture the girl within the next few seconds and threaten to do the same.

This was the moment that Roc was waiting for. The 4 troublemakers seemed stunned for a single moment as they watched their boss inches from a gory death and it would make it easy for Roc to jump up from his seat and over his table, pull out Sally with his right arm and aim to take one shot at the man threatening the non combative girl. It hit the hand brandishing the knife and caused him to drop it and let out a yell of pain.

Rocton didn't even stop to notice though as he jumped the top of a chair in his way to get to other two delinquents, the other knife wielder and the oh so menacing girl with a purse.

Midair, he swung his left leg in a circle at the face of the second knife wielder, knocking him down to the ground with a broken nose. Rocton then landed, almost tripping over himself due to lack of balance after the kick but managed to recover quick enough to stand in front of the girl with his arm outstretched, pistol in hand aimed right at the purse girl's face.

His face, scarred and a menacing stare bringing itself to light, simply looked at her eyes and said a simple little

"Boo"

The silver haired kid with a pistol and black tux just had the most fun he'd had in a long time.
