Worlds Collide, Mashyuu and Yuki in: The Watering Hole!

Job Details:

"Oi! Ya like that beer huh? Well drink up now cause it might not be here in a week." A bartender shouted, disturbing Mashyuu's drink. The brown haired Wizard from Sabertooth sat hunched over a tall, cold glass of beer. His blue eyes focused on the foam at the top of the glass and the bitter taste on his tongue. He couldn't remember what number he was on or how long he had been in the bar but the beer he was drinking had a taste he had never sampled before. It would have been perfect had the bartender not started rambling about how the beer might not be there in a week. With an almost deadly glare Mashyuu looked up from his drink while running a hand over the stubble on his face and looked at the bartender. "If you're asking me for help you're doing a piss poor job at it. Get to the point." Mashyuu called out. This wasn't like him but after losing two members of his team, having to deal with a girl who was afraid of her shadow, face a massive Dragon and it's series of challenges, and finding out he was having a baby a few drinks to wash away the stress of the week was justified.

The bartender thought for a moment then slipped up to stand in front of the Sabertooth Wizard who was still wearing his grey leather one sleeved jacket and nothing under it. "Yep. I'm asking you to keep my beer safe. Few weeks ago there were some guys who got hooked on the stuff. Decided they wanted more and have been trying to rob the place. I offered the job to a pretty little number in a short skirt. Said she was a Wizard but it can't hurt to have an extra hand. You look capable enough. You're that Mashyuu fella right?" Mashyuu raised the glass and nodded then downed his drink. That he was, still the Rising Star wasn't happy about being known this well. He normally did less than needed so that people didn't ask him for help but at this point it seemed it couldn't be avoided any longer. "Alright... What's it pay?" The bartender smiled wide, brimming ear to ear and cleared his throat. "Fifteen thousand." The Bartender exclaimed.

Mashyuu's left brow quirked and he extended his hand. He would have done it for free but if the bartender could throw thirty K around like it was a drop in a bucket then Mashyuu would gladly take the money. It would be rude not to wouldn't it? The Bartender walked Mashyuu to the back of the bar where the man's barrels of beer were being cooled and opened the door to introduce Mashyuu to his partner for the job, Yuki. When the door opened and the bartender left Mashyuu balled up his fist, ready to attack the woman until he reminded himself they were both there for the same reason. "Ughh you would be here."

Yuki spoke and Mashyuu could hear her sultry voice ringing in his ears. Why were the attractive ones usually evil? His nose flared and took in her scent while the brown haired Wizard cleared his throat and spoke. "Lamia Scale! Ha, don't make me laugh. I have spent time with many members of that guild, I know the smell of Lamia Scale very well. You don't smell like them. But you do smell like a few Dark Wizard's I have had run in's with. You are a little cleaner though. Haven't been in the secret guild long have you?" Mashyuu asked while walking around the woman in the dark cloak. Mashyuu glared at the way she loaded her gun and snapped it into place. At least she seemed like the type to do her job before making an enemy out of someone, that was good since Mashyuu didn't want to have to fight her and a bunch of thugs that likely wouldn't pose much of a challenge unless there were just a lot of them to over run the Wizard.

Together the Wizards were walked over across the street to a brewery where the Wizards were let inside and shown around. Mashyuu stopped in the center of the room and looked around. Four large tubs held the brew, letting the beer bubble and work properly. Barrels lined the walls and a metal cat walk ran around the inside of the building, allowing for access to the tanks from above. Mashyuu pointed to the metal walk ways and a tall ladder. "Why don't you take up a position up there, sweep around and wing targets. No killing. I don't want blood on my hands over people just being drunk and stupid." Mashyuu almost ordered Yuki, knowing she would likely protest to some point. Mashyuu stalked over to stand between the four tanks of beer and made sure there was only one exit. It was the same way they came in. Unless someone managed to get up to the skylight and climb out from there. Once he was in position Mashyuu tapped his foot on the floor, making sure it was a solid stone he stood on. "Yeah I can work with this. Nothing I won't be able to handle. So long as these guys aren't actually a bunch of drunk Wizards."
