Gunslinger Girls - Paths Intertwined

[Director of Music]

Giorgia looked down, murmuring quietly to herself.  Uncomfortable?  That would probably be the understatement of the century.  That man is bad.  Has to be...

However, seeing that Ryoshine's eye line was somewhere else, she looked up to see what he saw.  Just a couple, after all, it was a hotel, there couldn't be anything wrong, could there be?

His eyes were fixated on the couple, the woman was glancing about nervously, while the man appeared to be fidgetting with something in his coat pocket. With a slight smile on his face, Ryoshine leaned back in his chair and glanced over at Guiseppe, then made a hand motion toward the couple.

Just then the man got up and walked over to the table that Giorgia and Ryoshine were sitting at. "Excuse me, but you wouldn't by chance be-" he said while dipping his hand into the inside of his coat, as if reaching for something inside.

Giorgia tensed, ready to spring if necessary.  All thoughts about Hillshire were forgotten for the moment as she thought of another immediate danger.  However, Ryoshine looked relaxed, and smiled to her pointedly so that she loosened her tension and watched with growing curiosity.

"We are," Ryoshine said and waved a dismissive hand at Guiseppe and the others. The man nervously looked at him and the two other groups in the lobby, then handed Ryoshine a note. He waited until the man was gone, along with who he assumed was his wife, before unfolding the note. "A route..." he muttered. "Interesting..."

[Director of Music]

Giorgia kept a trained eye on the couple, while still watching Ryoshine read the note, and mumble to himself.  After he put the note away, she remained unnaturally still, waiting.  The couple were sweating bullets, and kept on fidgeting.  They didn't even smile, as people usually did when they saw the cyborgs, well, at least to them, they looked like regular young girls.

"We live in thirty minutes," he finally said and got up. "Giorgia, make sure everything of ours is in the van ok? Including our weapons and such, once you've done that stay with the van please until I get there," he said and turned toward Guiseppe and then looked over at Jean and gestured for them to come over to him.
