(bump)

Enzo sighed then he said to her, "They'll never get along or cooperate. They're in a war to gain territory from the other, and we're all just pawns in their little games." He said to her and then he closed his eyes, "And this war has been going on since before I was sent here, so I don't know anything except that I have to follow orders." He said to her then he stood up, "We should get going now." He said to her then he walked out of the room towards the bath house.

"The bathhouses here have seperate sections for the men and women??? How odd!" She said to him. "In my fathers city everything is combined. Men and women do things together. It is like a family unit.". To Enzo that may have sounded strange but to Lei it was normal. "Oh....I am sorry...." She said to him about his situation. "You and I are not so different....". She carefully folded the black kimono in her arms and began to follow behind Enzo. "My mother was a geisha as well. I do not even know who my real father is. She traded me to the man I call father for her freedom." Lei looked up at Enzo, "My father is a good man. I am proud to be called his daughter.". Lei wished she could talk to her father and enzos boss to try to convince them to stop their war. It was pointless. "How did this war even get started? Why are we fighting? Our families should work together."

Enzo sighed then he sat down on the bed, "After I answer your question I'll take you over to the baths, "And the darker one looks a little better on you than the brighter one, dark has always been my taste anyway." He said to her then he rubbed the back of his neck, "I was sold into it. Like I said, my father had a gambling debt when I was younger and he gave me and my mother up to repay the boss. My mother is a geisha, you can tell what happened to me." He said to her then he looked up at the ceiling, "Well, whenever you're ready to head out to the bath house. Just be away that there will be peeping toms since the men's bath and the women's bath are so close together."

To be honest Lei did not mind. She was raised in a house full of men where nudity was somethíng to be proud of. "Honestly I am use to people looking at me." She said to him she slipped out of her old kimono. She let out a sigh of frustration as she examined it, "These stains will not come out.". Lei actually like the kimono she was originally wearing. The design of it was simple and it did not have a bunch of bright colors. She turned her back to him and began to go through the clothes. She noticed the suit that he had worn earlier. Lei laughed a little. "Whoever designed this suit did an excellent job.". The craftsmenship on it was amazing. Lei continued on going through the closet until she pulled out two kimonos she actually liked. one was dark while the other was bright. "Which one?" She asked him. Lei smiled, "My mother was actually one of my father's favorite geishas....heh its kind of ironic....I swore I would never be like her...but here I am....". She put on the kimono he picked out. "You never answered my question. How did you get involved with the yakuza? I can tell by the way you look that you are not related to your boss so you were not born in to it......". She examined herself then looked up at him for his opinion. "Is there a bath house some where around here?"

(as long as you get away with it)

Enzo couldn't help but to give her a small smirk then he said to her, "Actually, I was a payment for a debt my father had. And this was the only real talent that I had." He said to her walking along side of her, "I don't mind helping you finding something, I had to make myself look like a woman just so I could do a job, so finding the right kimono is easy for me anymore." He said o her before they got in his room the three severed head removed from the wall by someone else, "Well. Everything is in here." He said opening up a wardrobe showing a variety of kimonos and disguises like the one that he used to fool Lei into thinking that he was the boss, "If you feel that you need me to turn around then I can at least give you that."

(Is it bad I am rp'ing during class??? Im booooooooored o_o)

“You???” Lei Took a step back and looked at Enzo. “I cannot imagine you dressed up as a woman.” The thought of it made her giggle. “Did you wear a wig?” He must had worn a wig. Lei continued to laugh. “You poor thing I am so sorry.” In those days it was unheard of for a man to dress up as a woman unless he was gay or in theatre. Finally she got a hold of herself and stopped laughing. “Really? You will let me stay outside? May I walk around?” She asked him. When he complimented her looks she blushed. Lei looked down and tried to hide her face behind her hair. “No one has ever said that to me before….thank you…..” Her comrads treated her like one of the guys and her father treated her more like a son than a daughter. Lei had always wanted to wear pretty kimonos and do things a normal noble woman would do. But because she was the heir to the yakuza clan she had to act masculine. “How did you dragged in to all of this? I mean….” Lei sighed. “You do not act like you belong in the Yakuza. “ Lei began to walk away. She wanted to explore the grounds. “I want to get to know this place…..I will be here for a while. “ This place was her new temporary. The moment she had a chance to escape she would. “Just to let you know….you are not bad looking….” Lei smiled at him and continued to walk. “I need to change first.” She thought to herself. “Would you mind helping me pick something out?” Even though they were sworn enemies, and she was suppose to hate him, she was beginning to like him. “This is bad……” She thought to herself. “I cannot treat him like a friend. I cannot have feelings for him. He is my enemy not my friend.” Lei sighed and looked at the ground as they walked back to his room.

Enzo looked at her then he nodded, "There are kimonos in my room. I've had to do assassinations in drag due to situational matters. They should be about your size." He said to her then he closed his eyes, "Enjoy your time outside. Since you want it so bad." He said to her crossing his arms before looking back at her, "Since I'm seeing you as less of an enemy at the moment, I just realized how beautiful you look." He said to her.

Once again her captor had left her speechless as well as dumbfounded. “What….did you just say?” Lei had heard him perfectly fine. “An assassin with a conscious…..how odd.” Lei thought to herself. “Just because he has one does not mean I owe him anything or I have to be nice.” Enzo was not the only one who had a conscious. Lei had one, but most of the time she ignored it. “I swear to god I am going soft.” Lei said out loud as she released his wrist. “I will probably regret this later.” Lei could see that it took a lot of strength for him to admit such a thing. “If your master found out he would probably kill you. You should probably keep all of that stuff about saving me to yourself.” Lei could keep a secret. This did not mean that they were friends or allies, she still hated Enzo, but now she had a sense of respect for him. “This does not change a thing I still plan on finishing my mission!” She said to him with a smirk. “Now…..would you PLEASE allow me a little bit of time outside. Also…..” She looked down at her scrubby clothing, “Maybe a change of clothes? I do not care what it is I just need to get out of this Kimono.” The kimono was covered with dirt from earlier when she was drug across the ground.

(It's fine. It's not too much)

Enzo was calm when she grabbed him and nearly cut his wrist, "You really think that I care. This is the first thing that I've ever really had control over, you think I'm not going to use it in some way?" He asked her then he looked into her eyes, "The only reason that I even have you here is because I have no choice, if I were to say no I don't want you then you'd end up dead. You think I really want to live with that on my conscience. That I could have chosen to keep a woman alive and the way to keep her alive was to keep her as this. What would you do in my situation?" He asked her staring her down with emotionless eyes like he had to constantly do even though his face gave so much.

enzo had gone to far this time. She had been nearly raped by the guards, traded from one owner to another, picked on, tossed around and now he was dragging her along like she was nothing more thatn dirty laundry. "YOU SON OF A BITCH!! I HAVE HAD IT!!!!" With all of her strength she pulled away from him until she broke free from his grasp. "I have put up with your shit for the very last time!" lei's voice was probably loud enough to hear across the entire household. She did not care. "If I am going to die I will take you with me! You sorry excuse for a man you have no honor!". Lei was wrong about him. She thought that his weakness was his soft spot for women. He was nothing but a monster. She reach out and pressed her razor sharp nails against his throat. "You think your so strong...you think you can treat me like trash YOU ARE WRONG! If you wish to keep me than fine I will stay! But if you EVER treat me like this I will kill you in your sleep!!!!!". Her nails came closer and closer to breaking his skin. "All I asked for was air! I am human I have needs just like you! Now....you either back down or I will kill you where you stand!" Lei held her other nails right to her wrist. If she cut either him or herself the poison would release in to their blood stream. Lei would have rather killed herself then be treated like an animal anymore.

"Oh...go ahead and try to move my hand. You know as well as I do that my nails are deep enough to scratch you if you flinch......" Now the ball was in his court. "Well....are you going to change your attitude a little or do I have to take you down with me?".


(I hope I did not control your character to much. I tried not to injure him or anything like that. I will not do it again -_-)

Enzo chuckled and then he said to her, "Now now. My whore wants to go out?" He asked with his wicked grin and then he said to her, "I don't see why not, I can sell you easier that way so that I'm not the first one you'll attempt to kill" He said to her then he grabbed her by the back of her collar, "I can do whatever I want with you after all." He said now dragging her along to the exit opening up the door to let the cool air into the building.
