'We're all the villain in someone's story and the sooner we all accept that he sooner the world on focus on the important shit.' That's what Ryan always used to tell Maya. She was never convinced and it's debatable whether or not he believed what he was said or if he just wished to control the way she looked at the world.

She still thinks about it as she drifts to sleep. Ryan no longer controls the way she sees the word though it cost her right eye for that added perspective. She sits at her desk trying to review a case when a girl walks into her office. She'd never seen this girl but she didn't like the look of her. She looks like a 5-year-old that was allowed to dress themself and had a sneaking suspicion her intelligence may match. She's a Nihonjin girl with long purple hair and neon pink glasses.

"こんばんわ 新しい スケバン。" she say sweetly.
"no entiende señorita. No hablo Japonés." Maya says trying to speak as slowly and simply as possible so she might understand her.
"ごめんなさい。私はスペイン語を話すことはありません。" she says a smiling. Maya doesn't smile back.

"Do you speak main language?" Maya asks getting increasingly frustrated.
"Yes." She says excitedly.
"Then speak fucking main language when you're not in Nihon." Maya says banging her fist against her desk. The girl doesn't stop smiling at this.
"What do you want?"

"I'm 広島萌. I'm the new engineer, technician, investigator, forensics..."
"I get the point you're the new girl. Stop spiting meaningless titles at Me." she had been hoping this wasn't the rookie she preferred it when their hopes and prospects have already been destroyed before they got the job.

"Why do you want to work here with a list of sought after skills."
"Easy you have the best computers programs and investigatory resources... and I would probably get beaten up by bounty hunters if I became a semi-independent investigator."

"We're not the only country on this planet."
"I just moved to this country. Why would I move again?"
"I don't know I'm not you and I don't really care. I just had to ask at least once."

I rummage through a drawer and get a new badge.
"Welcome to the Lloegyr Island's Neo Mystic Police Department. I'm truly, truly sorry." She throw the badge to 萌.

Maya gets out her note pad.
"What's the mainstream spelling your name."
"well you may call me Moe Hiroshima." She notes it down trying to remember where she heard the name Hiroshima before.
