As me and Jinx held arms we walked to a small open market, it didn't have much besides a few weapon and clothing vendors along with some decent Cyberdeck mods if your looking to cause some damage.

"So what do you like to buy here?" Jinx asks with a smile "Eh not much, maybe a gun or some meds." I say and she pouts "You need to get more than guns, get some clothes." "What you don't like my style?" I ask raising a brow "Have some variety, here lets browse here." she says as she drags me to a clothing vendor, the anthro cat looks at us as we look through the various racks.

- A few outfits later -

"You're quite picky aren't you Y/N?" Jinx asks as she lets out a sigh "I just don't get much of the fashion stuff, I wear what I find comfortable." I say as I continued to look through the rack till I find yellow jacket "What's this?" I ask pulling it off the rack "That I found in the plaza of City Center." the shop keeper says.

"Oh, well, how much for it?" I ask checking the size tag "Nine hundred

"Oh, well, how much for it?" I ask checking the size tag "Nine hundred." "What the? Fine here." I send him the money and he gives me a bag and I put it in "Thanks." he says as we leave. "Well that's a unique look, hopefully you have clothes that match it." "I'm sure I just have to dig through my closet." Jinx smiles and kisses my cheek as we kept walking. As we walk people look at us, human and anthro couples aren't a secret but I have a feeling that wasn't the issue "So where to next?" I ask "Maybe some food? I'm starving." Jinx asks pointing at a food stand and we walk over sitting down "So whats good here boss?" I ask and the chef turns around "Depends, do you like the taste of fake meat?" "Got anything... real?" I ask and the chef nods "It'll cost extra." "I can afford it." and the chef turns and begins to cook "So uhm how do we break this to your dad?" I ask looking at Jinx "We just tell him, unless being secretive is your dirty kink~." Jinx says with a toothy smile "W-well I mean I just don't wanna get in trouble." "It'll be okay, we'll tell him but until then this stays between us." Jinx says as the chef sets down bowls of dumplings "Sauce is here" he says pointing at three small bottles "Thanks" I say paying him and me and Jinx begin to eat.

- Some Time Later -

Me and Jinx finish our food, the market was oddly calming for me which isn't new since I always preferred the lightly busy spaces. As we get up and walk around some more we pass by a shop and Jinx pulls me towards it "What's the deal here?" I ask looking at the buzzing neon sign "This is where I get all my mods for my cyberdeck, I wanna see if they have anything new!" Jinx says with a smile and we go inside "Heya Jinx! My favorite customer!" the anthro tiger says as she leans against the counter spinning a pen "Hey, got anything new today?" Jinx asks while J stood next to her "No not today, my guy hasn't found anything yet" the tiger says and she looks at me "Who's the human?" "This is Y/N my bodyguard" she says with a smile and hugs me "Oh! Your Y/N! Jinx never stops talking about you when she's here!" the tiger says and Jinx blushes "Oh is that so?" I ask looking at Jinx as she buries her face into my shirt "Guess she never told you" the tiger laughs as Jinx drags me out of the shop "I-Ill come back later!" she says as we leave the shop.

We continue to walk around until we find a group of panthers around a shop, they're yelling into the open shop "GET DOWN ON THE GROUND! YOU! OPEN THE REGISTER!" one of them shouts as the people scream and some run away "Think we should go a different way" Jinx says holding my arm "And leave them to hurt whoever is in there?" I ask and Jinx looks at me "Stay here I got this" I say as I take out my pistol and Jinx lets me go "Hey pussies!" I shout and they look at me "Fuck off flesh bag! This is none of your business!" one of them says pointing their shotgun at me "Well I don't take kindly to you hurting people in our territory" I say stepping closer and I see them step back a bit "Y-your territory? Yeah right no human can own territory alone!" another says as he holds up his rifle "Razer Triads own this territory, now best you leave or else I'll kill you" I say pointing my gun at one "Yeah right, shoot this piece of shit!" one of em say but before one could get a shot sparks fly out of his head and he shouts as he falls to the floor and dies "W-what the hell?!" one asks and I begin shooting at the remaining few, people scream and run as they shoot back and I take cover behind table "Holy shit is he a net runner?!" one shouts as another sparks and dies then another has sparks shooting out of his head and then another in sequence and they fall onto the ground dead, I stand up looking at their bleeding bodies "The hell happened?" I ask and Jinx grabs my arm and holds it tightly "I-I did it" she says looking at me "Wait wait, YOU?" "Y-yes, I hacked into them and fried their systems" she says as she looks at me and her eye glow blue and I feel a small tingle in my head "H-hey stop that" I say "See? It was me, I've been practicing for awhile" she says and I look in disbelief "Does your dad know?" Jinx looks away "N-no and I'd rather he didn't" I sigh and look at the dead panthers "I'll... keep it a secret, c'mon lets go to my place" I say as we walked past the dead bodies and to the train station.

We arrive at the station and we pay for the fare, we go into the train and sit down "It's pretty empty, usually there's tons in one" I ask sitting down and Jinx sits on my lap and smile "W-whoa easy there" I say pushing Jinx off a bit "Afraid of P...

We arrive at the station and we pay for the fare, we go into the train and sit down "It's pretty empty, usually there's tons in one" I ask sitting down and Jinx sits on my lap and smile "W-whoa easy there" I say pushing Jinx off a bit "Afraid of PDA?" she says with a toothy smile "N-no just there's so much room so you can sit anywhere" "Well I wanna sit here~" she says sitting on my lap again and she moves her hips in a circular motion, grinning as she did so causing me to blush. We sat in the train until we reached the station and walked back to my place "Wow your building is smaller than mine" Jinx says as we looked up at my building, it was smaller than others and had a giant 1 on it seeing as it was the first of its kind "Yeah it was the first building, cheap and in good condition, well until the elevator doesn't work" I say with a chuckle before we walk inside and take the elevator up to my floor "This way, my apartment isn't far" I say taking her hand and we walk to my apartment the door with a holographic 101 on it with some stickers on the door, I open it and we go inside.

"Wow it's much better than mine, even the window is bigger" Jinx says as she looked around and smiled "It's not much but it has all I need really, minus a kitchen but who really cooks these days" I say sarcastically as I hung up my new jacket in m...

"Wow it's much better than mine, even the window is bigger" Jinx says as she looked around and smiled "It's not much but it has all I need really, minus a kitchen but who really cooks these days" I say sarcastically as I hung up my new jacket in my closet "Ooo whats in here?" Jinx says as she opens the door to my armory "That's where I keep all my guns and stuff" "Can I try?" Jinx says picking up a big shotgun "Whoa hey careful with that!" I say as walked over "What? I know trigger discipline" "That thing shoots grenades, please put it back" Jinx pouts and sets it back and we leave the armory and sit on the couch, the tv turns on and it plays a random show "So what's next for our day?" I ask looking at the tv "Well, maybe we could hang out?" Jinx says grabbing my hand "I think I'd like that Jinx" I say with a smile and she smiles back and leans on my shoulder as we look at the tv.
