Food shopping was always the easiest part of her job. Yoi looked down at the receipt in her hand. It had a number on it. All she had to do was walk into the store, receipt in hand, and give it to the lady at the counter. The lady would then give Yoi bags of food and she would be on her way. She believed this form of shopping was called 'pre-order.'
The only different thing was Yoi gave the lady money upon arrival. She wondered why she gave money and the others just took the bags. Shouldn't they give money, too? Maybe there was another way that just let them take the bags, or maybe those people just didn't have to give money?
It was better in Tokyo than in America. This world was a peculiar place for Yoi. Her assimilation into modern society was going slowly, but surely. At least in Tokyo she understood the people. Yoi was trying to learn English, but it'd only been a year since her escape from her past. So far she could recite the alphabet and speak very basic English. It was enough to pick up food in America, though the lady there always wanted to talk. Yoi could never keep up with her.
The stay in Tokyo was temporary. Soon, she'd be back in America. It was kind of depressing.

Shopping, one of the hardest things Harmony hated. Her band mates, Flora, Gretel and Roxy kept on bugging Harmony until she gave up and went with them. Right now they are at the supermarket. Flora, the brunette kept on bragging about how annoying her last boyfriend was as Roxy, the blonde remained quiet. Harmony sometimes wondered what was going on with Roxy, Roxy seemed like the one who only speaks whenever she has permission. They were in Tokyo because another tour for the Flaming Chicks was arranged for tomorrow night.
"So what should we do Gretel? Should we check out the latest fashion trend?" Flora asked her friend. "I don't know Flora. Maybe we should ask Harmony!" Gretel replied, lightened up at the idea. Harmony rolled eyes at the raven-head and continued walking. She hated how her friends could get this annoying, but she loved company with them. They always made her laugh and most of the time had fun! Harmony took the lolli-pop that was in her mouth, out and smirked.
"I was wondering, where are you going to get a new boyfriend?" Harmony asked Flora. Flora stopped dead and smirked back. "Easy. I'll just charm someone with my looks!" Flora sneakily answered. Harmony snickered along with Gretel and Roxy. "Like you will ever have looks." Harmony teased quietly, but loud enough so they can hear. Now three of them were laughing. "Be careful Flora, you may end up on the top of the 'Murder List' if you make a move on me." Harmony thought in her mind, poking her tongue out at her in a joking way.
"Hey! Isn't that the Flaming Chicks?!" A female cried out from the crowd. "Oh crap." Was the only sentence that came to Harmony's mind. She didn't like being the centre of the attention, but she had to deal with it. "Umm.." Gretel started until a crowd came rushing towards them. The poor band was now surrounded by fans, congratulating them and begging for autograph pictures, even in the middle of the supermarket.
Harmony sighed, this was going to be a long day...

Things were going smoothly. Yoi handed over the money and had her bag. She was all ready to go when someone started screaming. Yoi tensed up and was set on edge. She began to look for the source of the sudden yelling, noticing a crowd building in front of the door. Her only exit was now cut off.
At first, she thought something bad was happening. A robbery or something. It took her a few moments to realize the crowd was crowding a group of females. They didn't look to be hurting them. Instead, the crowd was...pleased... to see them. Yoi wondered if this was a common thing to happen, and if it'd happen to her as well. She wouldn't enjoy it.
Yoi stayed back from the crowd. She didn't really like them. They made her feel so...enclosed. She wondered if the poor girls were feeling the same way.
So many people...I wonder why they're doing that to them... Yoi frowned.
She recalled the first yell..Flaming Chicks. It confused her to hear. They were obviously referring to the group, but the girls weren't on fire.

>Sorry for the late reply, next time you can annoy the heck out of me until I give up.<
Harmony widened her eyes as the crowd grew bigger, she hated how her band was this popular. Harmony thought of a plan, she didn't want to keep her adopted brother waiting. After a few seconds, Harmony eventually used her friends as a distraction and sneaked out of the populated area.
Once she was out of the blue, Flora shouted for her missing friend who was slyly smirking at their stupidity. Harmony smiled and walked along the streets, passing by a girl who was looking at them, confused.
Her cellphone rang, and Harmony quickly picked it up. "What?" Harmony greeted through the line. "Harmony, your mission was to kidnap a girl, have you found her?" Fallen asked throughout the line. Harmony scanned the area carefully, her eyes catching a certain girl who just came out of the food store.
"I have my brother. Do not worry, for I will succeed." Harmony answered, an evil smile tugging at her lips. "Very well done my sister, take all the time you need." Fallen finally replied, before hanging up on her.
Harmony secretly sneaked to a dark alleyway, close to where the girl was. Harmony loved her job, she loved kidnapping people and jumping around places. Once Harmony saw she was clear, she climbed on a rooftop, and leaned forward. The girl was now directly below her.
Finally, flashbacks of the past hit her. And Harmony was back in the Mafia. "Traitor, how dare you oppose us?" The leader boomed, the smell of blood echoed throughout the room. As a little girl, Harmony shivered slightly and knocked him off his feet. Using this as a distraction, she slipped away as the others rushed forward to his aid.
Back in the modern time, Harmony blinked once, she blinked twice. Now all the Mafia organisations will be looking for her, the Russians. the LA, and the Japan. Focusing on her mission, Harmony used this opportunity to drop down a rock and strike.
