Fast forward a few weeks*
Sasha couldn't believe what the man in front of her was saying. Correction what this merc in front of her was saying. He smiled at her doubtful expression. Hmmm that smiled seemed familiar somehow, but she let it go as he opened his mouth to repeat some of what he had said.
“ I said, I know who you are and I know you have a bounty on your head BUT I have a deal for you, I need your help finding someone, someone with a much higher bounty. And if you find that someone for me I’d be willing to forget I saw you, and who knows maybe you and I could be partners, it sure looks like you could use the dough.” He looked her up and down stopping at certain areas before finishing. “ I think you’d be very happy with the payday, OH and names James by the way.”
~time for a wee little flashback~
Sasha had stopped going outside during the day for awhile in fear that somehow someone knew it was her that had killed that woman, so she would venture out only at night, she always felt safer at night anyway,she could see just as well at night as she could during the day, no one else could and that gave her a very welcome advantage so when she left that night on one of her nightly “walks”, she knew someone was following her, she could smell him, and even sometimes hear him behind her, but she remained aloof and made circles around the center of the city, hoping to lose him but that sadly was in vain. She was sure he hadn't seen which way she had come from so he didn't know where her brothers were, they were safe for now. But she was still anxious, she could smell determination and purpose so she knew this man would not leave her alone till he cornered her and got what he wanted, which brought about the question what did he want? A fight? Her money? Both? Well there's only one way to find out the beast purred obviously delighted by the prospect of a fight. Hungry arnt you Sasha whispered aloud, always it breathlessly replied. And with that she stopped walking and looked in the direction she knew the man to be and shouted loudly “ I know you're there, come down here and tell me what you want before you piss me off and I come up there to you.”
A tall blonde haired man walked out with what he would have thought was a pleasant smile but all she saw was the predatory gleam to it. He had on camo cargo pants and a leather jacket, she could see a gun peeking out. Merc she decided. Which would mean he could only be after one thing. The bounty on her head. She rushed at him faster then any human could and knocked him to the ground, straddling him and put a knife to his throat.
“How did you find me?!” she whispered angrily. She pushed the knife closer so he could feel the bite of the blade but not so close that he was bleeding. Yet. He looked at her with a lazy expression before answering.
“How does anyone find anyone. You just look, but I can sense you want a better answer so lets make a deal, you let me up and I’ll tell you what you want to know.” He finished with an annoyingly fake smile.
She stared at him for a second and then stood up, not bothering to extend a hand to help the man up.
“ Fine speak, and im warning you, you try anything stupid, move in a way I don’t like, anything, and I promise you you wont live to regret it.” She stared at him hard as he got up.
“ Okay I can handle that I guess, you sure do drive a hard bargain though.” He paused to laugh at his own joke before continuing. “I know who you are miss Sasha and I know what you done but don’t go getting your panties all in a twist I aint after you I got a bigger a fish that needs frying.” She noticed the slight southern accent to his speech when he talks, but just stares at him. Then he cocks his eyebrow before speaking again.
*back to present time*
She thinks a moment before answering James. Going after the bounty with this merc would mean she would have to leave her brothers, but it would also mean that she would have enough money to get them out of this place, maybe she could even get them back to New Mecca and they could live there in safety, after all it wasn't them that had a bounty on their head. She couldn't live there with them as much as it pained her, no they needed to be safe,and they wouldn't be truly safe while mercs were always after her, she couldn't keep ruining their life, but she could visit them in secret and that was enough, she would give them, all the money she made so that the twins could go to a good school and Altos wouldn't have to work and he could just watch Krit and Koven like he does now. They could live a semi perfect life without her. It wouldn’t be a goodbye though she told her self. It would just mean she couldn't see them for awhile. Its decided then she thought, I’ll agree to go, but not without a little insurance.
“ Okay I with help you find who ever it is you need to find but before I do I need some money up front, you know for some supplies and what not.” She gave him a small smile, she didn't trust him but she needed him to trust her.
“ Uhh okay well how much were you looking to get?” his eyes widened a little at the number she gave him “ Whoa alotta supplies you gotta get, alright I can do that, that number aint nothing but change compared to what im going to make with your help.” He said with another smile. All she did was nod then stalk off, “ HEY WAIT!” she turned just as he asked where they will meet up, she walked closer to him so he could hear and will a sweet smile she told him she would find him.
