I found myself asking around where I can find Slico. I didn't get much information, everyone at that bar kept eyeing someone or repeated the name "Sevika ''. To my surprise she was sitting right there, on a couch right at the corner of the bar. I sat done in front of her, crossing my legs and finally taking my kitsune gas mask. I stared at her, trying to figure out if she really was "Sevika".

I was broken from my thoughts when her voice came about,

"What's your problem?" she borrowed, looking a bit annoyed.

"I've been told by many people you know Silco" I say seriously and hoping she was the right person.

"And what if I did, everyone knows who he is"

She is a bit confused.

"Yes I can tell, but I was hoping you could help me get some time to see him. I've been meaning to talk to him." I finally say.

Please don't ask for any more details, I

thought to myself.

"And why would you want to see him, what do you need, shimmer or something" she says still not fully convinced.

"No, no of course not" I say now leaning back on the chair and placing both my hands on the arm rests.

"Hmm so what are you going to give me to ask for him to see you, beautiful?" She asked

"What am I going to give you..? Let's see what you want?" I ask curious to know

"What are you willing to give?" she states with a smirk.

"Money is what you want, or is it a special recognition from your Boss. You'd be "employee of the month". " I say sarcastically.

She became annoyed with a more disgusted look.

" Stop playing sweetheart" she says. A

Anger running through those words.

"Who said I was? After all, I am just having a bit of fun." I say with a smirk.

"You want to see Silco or not," she says. She was done playing this game.

"Fine, yes I do actually. I am willing to give you this bag of coins, take it or leave it" I finally get serious.

I toss the bag full of coins on the small table in front of me. A few coins roll onto the table. She raises a brow, now looking at the money and then at me.

"So are you going to show me the way?" I asked.

She grabs the money and stands up. I place the mask on, and follow. She was definitely much taller when standing. It was even intimidating.

No words were said by both of us. I just followed behind her as we made it through a long hallway in the bar. The music was long gone. Only our footsteps to be heard and a few dim lights to be seen.

"We've arrived," she says, looking at the door right in front of both of us. We were just a few feet away from the door.

I look at her from the side and say,

"Do I just go in or"

"Do you want me to join you with your little talk with the boss, doll?" she says in a laughter tone.

"I mean if you'd like you can, I think it'd be very enjoyable...after all three is better than two" I say trying to keep the joke going.

Which wasn't funny, but it seemed to annoy both of us and that was the point.

"You can figure it out from here" were her final words before she left and walked away. Her figure slowly fading.
