AU: One Freaky Family

[Patrick "Puff" Ramshire]

Tekka stooped to let Jazz off of her back, keeping her eyes locked onto Hana to make sure there wasn't any fast ones being pulled. Jazz ducked behind his mother's leg, peeking out from behind her. The blond woman was fine with this, Jazz was out of direct harm if he stayed RIGHT THERE. He was her priority right now, even as he let out a squeaked and confused 'thank you' at the compliment Hana had paid him. The upside to this situation was that Hana was a known variable, Tekka could handle this if she played it right.

On the downside, Puff was now a confirmed survivor as well... Fuck, they'd really screwed up the mission all those years ago...

"Can't say it was mutual, you know, after you kidnapped my sister-in-law and you tried to kill me." Repeatedly, if she remembered right. Her stance was defensive, she hadn't carried a weapon since getting back to the city and Hana was a reputable murderer, defense would be her focus if it came down to a fight.

Meanwhile, Puff was sulking in the shadow of a building. There hadn't been a single pretty lady in the direction he'd picked, and he was gonna disappoint Hana SO BAD if he came back empty handed and he didn't WANT to make her disappointed. He whined quietly, unhappy with the circumstances.

[Hana Chizuko]

Hana rolled her eyes. "You got her back, didn't you? And I wasn't aiming to kill you, just… severely injure." Why would she want to KILL her after all? She was fun, it would have been such a waste to get rid of her. "If it makes you happy, your friends gave the two of us some rather memorable injuries." Her hand reach for the spot on her head that the Russian woman had hit her at. To this day she honestly couldn't tell you how she survived that, her theory was Hell itself didn't want her just yet.

"Oh! Maybe this will cheer you up some." She dug into her bag real quick and pulled out what remained of a lighter and tossed it to the blond. "That was Archer's. We took out the traitor years ago, you're welcome." It was messed up from the explosion, but after Puff had been fixed up Hana went back to the scene to find SOMETHING to keep as a trophy. She grinned. "Go ahead, keep it. Show it to Ruru and Jackie-boy, I'm sure they'll get a kick out of it."

It hadn't taken long for Hunter to locate Puff, especially once he heard the baby whining. "Puff," the boy called. "Momma said to get you. I found someone but she doesn't wanna kill her, they're just talking. Said they knew each other." It still didn't make any sense to him, he FOUND HER for a REASON.
