I WON'T BECOME YOU!

This felt good..it felt really good, relaxing even. The notion takes him out of his sense of self at least for a moment. No inner turmoil, no planning or scheming just this moment shared with Sachiko. Ugh, he’s found a new weakness of his. He’s practically humming..or if her were a cat he’d be purring. “Don’t…stop.”

This girl..there’s an uneasiness to her stare. In fact..was she always staring at him?? Ugh, it might be best to deal with this before returning to his grandfather. The last thing he needed was a stalker. So, Jin turned to face her, holding his bag over his shoulder as he looked at her with curious eyes. “Can I help you?” It appears his mother’s influence was still somewhat alive in him despite his grandfather’s ramblings about people around him only serving to either be a foot stool to get him to the top or servants.

He’s the strong silent type sure..but sulky? He’s more of a brood type if he wanted to get a little technical but…really?? Sulky?  That actually made him pout a little before he’d turn his gaze towards the side. It must have been one of her friends. “I am not sulky.” Oh yeah, he’s hurt..just a little. Probably more so over the fact that the sister-figure he loved so much seemed confused and not even at the ready to defend his honor.

He smiles at the sight of the bat, there was a little bead of sweat falling down the side of his face. It's great to see her at the very least considering ways to deal with dangerous threats and well..he's sure the spiked bat would get rid of most of the little grunts they tend to bump into every now and then. "That's good Sachiko..just..try not to hurt yourself." Hmmm..there was something..attractive about her swinging that bat around.

“Hold on..I doubt Shinjuku can afford you going on a road rage right now.” Not to mention this was his bike that she plopped herself onto. He loves Sachiko to death but he’ll never make the mistake of letting her ride his motorbike ever again. (not like he never crashed his in a helicopter) “How about this…you let me ride and we’ll go out and get you one right now. Just like that.”

"Not sure what to tell you Hitomi-obasan, but we might just have hit a snag in the plans. Maybe instead of a nunnery she can just join a church and practice a little bit of abstinence until after they're in court."

“Yeah bu-..” No she wasn’t done..not in the slightest. Karin continues to let him have it. She was soo forward..maybe Nina’s the one who would need the protectio and he’ll have to end up paying Karin instead. But..hold on..there’s a spot of sweat developing at the corner of his face. “Who told you about th-? Why does everyone even know about this?” Jin’s a man who stood up to the likes of both his father and grandfather Kazuya and Heihachi..and it’s this girl who’s managed to get the better of him in a conversation. “Fine, I’ll call off Nina..” He’s gotten enough data regarding their routines and schedules for at least a month, for the most part there can be a few Zaibatsu agents at their spots posing as civillians.

Hmmmm, he didn't know it would have been a problem..then again Nina often love letting her presence be known. "They are your sisters, two of the most important people to you. Your safety already means so much to hanamaru and by that extent I also see them as family. This is the only way I know to keep them safe." As long as Jin wasn't anywhere near them physically then at the very least the incident that had occur years ago with his mother won't be repeated. He'll be damned if his devil gene becomes the reason a loved one is hurt or stolen away from him. "This is a predicament; maybe it was easier with the cameras." And just MAYBE he can just tell Nina to be better at being stealthy.

"Of course I do, I'm a man of my word. As we speak Nina is already making arrangements. Yusuke told me that Sakura is 'the saver' so I'm to put it onto her account. By the end of the day she should have over 100.000Y. Along with the deed to the Mishima Zaibatsu handed over to Sachiko in the case of my..sudden disappearance."

And just like that, the entire room had gotten cold. He could practically feel the wrath coming off of Hanamaru at this point..a familiar rage that he knows all too well. If anyone ever had their doubts about them being related then this moment would silence the doubters. "Hey, when I heard an unstoppable force is pitting them against one another..the same one who pitted me against Ryu mind you was back..well I had to put in an investment in my friend's future. They're a middle-class couple ..and one of them likes to bite off more than he could chew, so think of it as a donation towards them.

"Socially speaking my polar opposite. Where I'm quiet and reserved, she's outspoken and bold, and it's what I like about her. Blows my mind to think that once upon a time, she was my sister's best friend who had a crush on me."

"You have a great judge of character, you allowing me to stay in your life gives me hope...for my future. So, you're an incredible person."

He shook his head to decline his involvement. “I didn’t tell them anything, if I have to assume anything is that they made an educated guess.” After all, the results of that scandal made top news online..to the amusement park’s chagrin..and now they’re even facing larger backlash with the ordeal repeating itself. “As for doing it again…I don’t see why not.” One foot was already in hell..might as well cast his entirebody into the abyss. “I’d recommend we try it at the theater, we’ll see how long you can keep quiet.” ( just like that he forgot he has to set an example )
