Kuro didn't answer to the male until she padded her pocket, seeing that it was gone. "Oh! Thank you very much." She took the pocket knife back, fliping it open to make sure the ingravings were there. She had the Japanese side facing her as she read it over before closing it and putting the weapon back in her fornt pocket. "Thank you again, it means alot to me." She gave a small smile, it was the best she could do with how crazy this morning had been. She knew that she wished she didn't have so much pride in her quick reflexs and strenght so she didn't pretty much so everyone in the bank ealier today that she had more than enough fighting expience.

"It's okay, I'm Dean by the way, You are?"His short silky brown hair slightly matched his light Hazel coloured eyes.

"Kuro, but I go by Jessica." Kuro's bangs hid her right eye so that she looked like she only had black hair and blue eyes, a normal woman, she wished. Sometimes her bangs would slip up on her and show the red eye, making people question her as to how it was like that.

"Jessica...?" that name was his daughter's, Dean was about 125 years of age, after the experiment he was left in a cooling chamber and froze for 100 years just out of pure curiosity as to weather he would survive or not? The scientists had't taken into account what would happen to his life. "It's nice to meet you Jessica, beautiful name By the way"

"It's my middle name and thank you." She smiled, but it didn't seem like it was her true smile, just a polite one. Kuro's full name was Kuro Jessica Sakuranbo, she was planning to have her last name changed because she didn't like it but she didn't know what to change it too. Kuro was only seventeen, her master didn't want to test how long she could live, but had no problem testing how long she would go before totally losing her mind.

"does anybody harass you any more? at the strip club i mean?" Dean Was a mysterious man, He would never talk about himself. The rain patted on the window down at the end of the corridor.

Kuro shrugged, she hated the way the people at the strip club treated her but she dealt with it until she was done with college. "From what you did last night, they didn't touch me for the rest of the night but who knows for tonight." She sighed, wishing there was a better paying job she could take where she would get a little more respect.

The military pays Dean tremendous amounts of money for his service to the army "Well i guess i'll have to drop by again tonight. I'll be taking my leave now Jess, please take care" He smiled before turning and made his way towards his door

Kuro nodded. "See ya Dean." She said before unlocking her door and walking into her apartment. It was small but for her it was better than sleeping outside. It had a bar to seprate the kichten from the living room. One bedroom and bathroom, both on a hallway.

The sound of chatter moved down the hall and passed the entrance to her little home. She sang sweet lyrics to the sound of music that played in the background as she cleaned. Her kitchen was a mess from the constant working and lack of time home. The dishes had since piled up to a small tower in the sink. Her voice carried on the walls of the building. They were slightly thinner than normal and the doors weren't at all sound proof. Her finger tips glowed slightly as they touched the water, the gross stain of food melting from the plates and bowls and silver. As one song stopped and another faded on, she continued this for a good 20 minutes until the kitchen became completely clean. Unknowing of the voices still going about outside in the hall, she put on her headphones and carried a bag of trash out to the bins outside. When she entered once again, the Tenant at the desk waved and smiled a cheesy grin, complimenting her voice as she passed. She smiled a kind smile, that lit up her entire face, illuminating the look of her usual sad eyes.

Kuro had finished clean up a little around her apartment before going to get ready for work. She heard the new girl singing and had to admit that she was pretty good.

Kuro changed into a black tanktop and a pair of shorts. She hated the outfit she had to wear but she did like getting paid about a hundered dollars a week. She put on her white sneakers and went to her door. She opened her door and grabbed her pruse. She locked the back as she left. She saw the new girl in the lobby and smiled at her. "You have a beatiful singing voice." She said to the new girl as she held her hand out for a hand shake. "I am Kuro Sakuranbo, but everyone calls me Jessica."

Dean had just finished doing what he always did, kill a hired gun who was sneaking around in his room. His room had holes in the walls and doors. He was going to head out and hire someone to patch it up. He made his way downstairs to the lobby, this time using the stairs, he saw Kuro and Claudia.

"good evening ladies" he nodded his head once "how are both of you?" he smiled softly at both of them, the street lights flickered in his light hazel eyes. He smiled as looked to Kuro "you're going to work right?" his smile grew as he looked over at Claudia "how do you find strip clubs? There's one just around the corner and it's the closest place to grab a beef or two" he chuckled after hearing what he said

"My name is Claudia." She didnt bother giving a last name from precaution for herself. She extended her hand to Jessica and smiled in return. As she let go she was greeted by another familiar face. "I just want to thank you for what you did for the coffee shop I work for. Really took a lot of stress off our backs to figure out the damage costs and avoiding claims with insurance and raised prices." She smiled at him, cocking her eyebrow at his questions. "I've been to a few where I used to live, not too bad. Definitely interesting." She winked at him, turning off her phone and wrapping the headphones around it. "Why were you offering or something?" She asked him, curiosity on the edge of her voice. "Because I'm clearly a mess right now." She gestured towards her 'laundry day' outfit and the mess tied to the top of her head.

Kuro sighed. "I work as a bartender at a strip club, that's why he is asking." She said. It was clear that she worked somewhere that wasn't for kids, with her outfit. A simple pair of shorts and a tanktop. Nothing special but it is what her boss wanted her to where. "Also, Dean. This time don't come. I can handle myself and if what happened last night happens again my boss is going to be firing people left and right." Kuro didn't mind that Dean came to the club but with the scene he caused yesterday, there was no telling what her boss would do if something like that happened again.

"Shame..." He looked down then up at Claudia "How about we go out for dinner" He looked over to Kuro "the three of us, since we are acquainted somewhat" He gave them both a soft smile, his light Hazel eyes felt warm and welcoming "so goodbye Jessica, Claudia would you mind if i joined you?" He didn't have anywhere to be, he had no family that he knew of.

"You can definitely join me. I'm only running errands after I'm finished cleaning." She waved goodbye to Jessica and headed up the stairs to her apartment. Dean at her heal as she moved quickly through the stair case without losing her breath.

Dean smiled watching her move so fast, she wasn't looking back so he decided to speed things up. He jumped out the window and grabbed the window from the outside making him hang off the side of the building, he then made his way up the side of their building until he reached their floor. He stood by her door and waited with his arms crossed.

Kuro shrugged. "I guess I'll see you two after work. Goodbye." She did an about-face and headed for the door. Once out in the cool of the falling day headed for her work. Her black hair brushing her neck slightly as the wind blew it gently.

She moved quiet quickly, hurrying to work. "The sooner I get to work the sooner I can get all over with." she though as she walked through the doors of the strip club.
"Ah, there is our beautiful bartender, Mrs. Jessica." Kuro raised an eyebrow to her boss, knowing something was up.
"What's up?" She said in a flat tone.
Her boss frowned and walked over to Kuro. "C'mon, Jessica. What could possibly wrong. Everyone is glad to see that you survived the robbery at the bank today." Kuro was unfazed by her boss who gave in and aid "Someone from last night had came in and requested that you spend the night with him for a large price."
Kuro shook her head. "I am not a stripper so tell him no. I am not going to be with someone that I don't know just because he is paying me." With those words in the air, Kuro went to the bar and bag to work.

(OMG CASEY! Your back!)

Dean waited for her for a while, his hands slid into his inside jacket pocket and pulled out a rose. Dean placed it by Claudia's door then jumped out the window of their building. "Time for my daily rounds" He said sprinting down ally ways and over moving vehicles, his speed was in match able and his reflexes were outstanding. Dean's adrenalin started to pump and his veins started to show as they went a light blue.

He stopped outside Kuro's work place "I really want a drink, I guess it won't hurt if I just pop in for a sec" he said taking deep breaths between each word then walked in. He was wearing a dark grey vest and black joggers, beads of sweat rolled down his chest and the pink neon lights gave him a faint glow. All the strippers couldn't take their eyes off him

(Only for the night.)

Kuro looked over at Dean smiled at him. Her boss was still at the bar as well, trying to talk her into the whole deal with the guy he was talking about.
"Jessica, please just do it. It is the only time I will ask you to do this. It is alot of money and it can help the club alot." Kuro's smile disappeared and she glared at her boss.
"I said no. I'm not any of those girls. I'm just the bartender so I don't do what they do." She said as the strippers left to get ready for the coming customers.
