The Adventure Begins! [private]

Mission stuff:

Same old, same old. Leona Tau was hunched over on a bar stool she frequented so often that it might as well have had her name on it. Two empty shot glasses were lying on their sides on the wooden counter top in front of her. Traces of a bitter smelling liquid lingered within. If one were to look Leona into her eyes, they would notice a slight lack of focus; either the two shots she had consumed were insanely alcoholic or she was just a lightweight. "Bartender!" she shouted, before blinking. When did her voice get so loud...?

"You've only had two shots, how the hell are you already this drunk?!" he exclaimed. "Don't buy any more- actually, you know what, DO go ahead and buy more. I make money based off of people's bad decisions, after all. That will be 3 ryo." the brown-haired man replied, sliding over yet another shot glass. She took a whiff- strong and bitter. She had no idea what is was, but she drank it anyway. Pale hands fumbled inside of a pocket before three ryo were flung out onto the counter. They made little clattering sounds as they made contact with the wooden surface. Suddenly, however, the world went pitch black. Her drunken mind was whirring to find a possibility. Too much alcohol? LSDs? A particularly odd hallucination?

"Hey, jackass," a voice echoed in her head. It simultaneously came from all directions and left a horrible ringing feeling in her temples. "Remember that time you stabbed me in the hand with a fork? Well, now it's MY turn to make you pay!" A moment passed in utter silence.

"...Who are you again?" she asked in as coherent a tone as she could manage. An exasperated yell echoed around her. He sounded pissed... Now THERE was a strategy. Piss off the unknown dude until he made a mistake.

"You stabbed me in the hand with a fork, kicked me in the junk, and then poured whiskey all over my head!" the voice shouted. She scratched the back of her neck awkwardly. How was this guy doing this? There's no way he could ACTUALLY make the world disappear around her. If there was, she'd already be dead at his hands. She was willing to bet he was stalling for something... Perhaps this was a genjutsu? She started to slow her chakra down by a near unnoticeable amount. After a few seconds, the flow had stalled almost completely.

"...Sorry?" she replied. Evidently, this was the wrong answer. She started to feel the little pinpricks of hundreds of mites, spiders, and fleas crawling up her legs... And then she spiked her chakra as high as it would go. With a loud cracking sound, the illusion dispersed, leaving her back in the bar. She turned around. There was a strange man sitting a few tables away... No, there were three strange men there. And one of them had his hands hidden. Their eyes met for a moment before Leona lunged forward. She jumped over the stool, bounced off a chair that was in the way, and aimed a vicious punch at his head. The blow connected, but didn't seem to do much damage. Oh, damn. Would she have to use her threads for this?

Not a moment later, the feeling of darkness enveloped her, this time more complete. She could feel anything, hear anything, or see anything. But at least this time she knew it was a genjutsu... She had to get out quickly before they managed to do something irreparable. She gathered as much chakra as she could and made it spike violently while she made the necessary hand seal. Once again, the vision shattered, landing a very pissed Tau back in reality. Before anyone else could see, she darted a small black thread between her fingers and into the chests of one of the men who were harassing her. Not a moment later, she drew it back. He yelped and fell over, clutching the wound. A strong pair of hands grabbed her from behind around the waist. She struggled and tried to fight back against his grip, but it was no use. Would she have to...? Something glimmered in front of her eyes. The second man was holding a knife! She had forgotten about him... She braced herself for discovery and shot out another thread, which wrapped around his hand. Then, Leona used the sheer strength of her threads to throw the asshole into the shoulder of the person who held her. A fierce scream echoed throughout the building as the sharpened knife made contact with human flesh. Those close to the source of the noise managed to pick up a sickening squelch. Ew, disgusting, she thought.

Leona was dropped suddenly, and she tumbled onto the floor. Quickly she stood up and accidentally kicked the man on the floor. A light groan came from past his lips. Knife still embedded in the first man's shoulder, he didn't look too eager to fight anymore. That just left one target left- the genjutsu user. The two look each other in the eyes for a moment before she looked away. What if his genjutsu were occular based? The world started to fade into blackness again, but she dismissed the illusion with a simple hand sign. Was that... Was that the only jutsu he had? Damn. Leona kind of felt bad for him now. She cracked her knucles and took one step forward.

"Listen, buddy, sorry I did all that. Really. But unless you want to end up worse than your buddies on the ground, I'd highly suggest leaving me alone." she stated before going quiet, as if thinking of an additional term. "...And you're going to pay my tab for this month." The man blinked and stepped back.

"I... How much ryo is that?" he stuttered out. His eyes darted towards the door nervously.

"Not that much. 500." Leona said, inspecting her nails.

"Y-yeah, sure, whatever..." He dropped a wallet on the floor, held his hands up, before nudging his friends. Then he left or whatever.
