Eulailia blinked excessivelyfor a moment, “Actually no, but I have something to prove so I have no choice but to subject myself to… whatever might happen to me.” She held a drink out to the woman, “Rhee…isn’t it? I wonder if I might have you help me? I need to toughen up.” She looked at her for a moment, “No doubt you are as tough as they come. The way you took that being down. I want to learn how to do that!”

Dacascos, COO

Ree studied Laila, looked at the bartender to see if this was some sort of prank, and then looked back at Dacascos. “Why should I?” What’s it to me?”

She placed the drink on the bar, “You would be helping an otherwise defenseless human girl gain some courage and combat skills?” She showed all her teeth in a forced smile as she clasped her hands together in a pleading motion. She wasn’t ashamed either. Then she said, “You helped me before, why not help me again? But this time you will be teaching me. There is reward within that itself. If that is not a good enough reason, tell me what I can offer you so that you would seriously consider my request.”

Dacascos, COO

Rhee planted her hands on her hips and studied Dacascos at length. “By the look of you I doubt you could pay me, and frankly my job is to keep the peace in this place. I have a feeling you won’t leave me alone till I agree, so I’m going to say yes under one condition…”

Laila frowned at the comment at first, then she realized Rhee was going to help her and she didn’t have to pay or do anything in return but listen and learn.

She leaned in and fixed her gaze. “You do as I say. Don’t question, just listen. Deal?”

“Y..yes. Of course. Deal! I will follow your instructions. To the t.” She looked at the crowd in the bar, then back at Rhee, “So when do we start?”

Dacascos, COO

Rhee slipped behind the bar and crouched down, disappearing for a moment. She pulled out a small pad of paper and grabbed a pen from a cargo pocket on her pants. Scribbling, she tore off the top sheet and thrust it at Dacascos. “Be there tomorrow. 10 am. If you’re late, don’t expect me to wait.” On the paper was simply an address.

Laila took the paper. Read it. “I will be there.” She wanted to ask where this was the address to. However Rhee didn’t seem to like to be questioned. “Um…is there anything I need to do to prepare for our meeting. I don’t do well with surprises.” She was thinking back to when she first initially entered the Holosuite and things did not go as she expected.

Dacascos, COO

“No.” Rhee leaned in, her gaze intense. “You want to learn courage and combat skills? I can teach you the combat skills, but courage comes by how you react. learn to suppress your fear and channel it, or else you’ll always be a defenceless girl. You want help? Help yourself first.”
