Minarika sat up awake at dawn the next day the pain subsided to a throb. Slowly she slid from the bed and stood picking up her mask. Slowly she walked away from the bed the mask at hand and retraced her steps to the main room. Stopping as she looked around and moved over to the man who helped her the night before. Standing beside him she spoke quietly. "Sleep well?" 

She did not intend to wake him if he was asleep but she wanted to talk to him before heading out. To see if she could be accompanied by him. She spoke quietly again. "I am sorry for not telling you why I wear the mask."

Conall stirred as he heard footsteps moving towards him. Looking up he sees Minarika coming to stand by his chair and smiles slightly at her. He nods his head and then rubs the sleepies from his eyes to her question and then listens as she continues to talk. He smiles again at her kindness but shakes his head, "You don't owe me an apology, or a reason for the mask. However I am curious about it if you are interested in talking" Conall gets up and drags another chair close to his and offers it to Minarika as a seat before returning to his chair and giving her his full attention.

She listened and watched. Waiting until she was offered the seat before accepting it and sitting down. She took a small breath before speaking and smiled. "My mother had sent me over seas. But what happened was while I was there I had the chance of learning a few things. When I returned I had brought this mask with me." She looked down at the mask and smiled. "I had fun making this mask, but what I use it for. I dont take it off unless I plan to hide from someone." She laughed slightly and looked up with ruby red eyes and smiled. "You know. I find it easy to duck the police when I take it off. The mask is what they search for first." 

She sat quietly and smiled holding the black mask in her lap while rubbing her index finger on its horn.

Conall smilled as he listed to Minarika talk, when she was all done he sat in silence for a few moments before responding. "Tell me more about your time over seas" he said looking over at her and wondering what else she had done over there. And what it had been like for her. He looks Minarika in the face as she talks admiring her beauty, even knowing the reason she used the mask, he couldn't help but wonder why she hid her face in a mask instead of using the mask to hide when she needed to but otherwise showing off her beauty.

She looked at him and smiled though she continued to run her finger along the edge of the mask. She sat back in her chair and rethought about what had happened up till now. She looked at him and spoke quietly, "Well... overseas I was doing some self studies in culture.... I spent time in japan and worked with Yakuza.... it took time before they sent me here due to the note on my mothers death."

She looked at the mask and smiled. "It wasn't all that different when there you know... Just.. the language barrier was a struggle. But you learned to get around it. I spent some extra time learning about the different masks and doing odd jobs but I wasn't that bad to me."

Minarika looked at him and sighed softly. "I was not expecting to be put in a family here so quickly. Though I do walk around and explore after being gone so long." She waited to see if he had anything to say.

Conall smiled at Minarika as she talked, she had a very sweet voice and he enjoyed her talks. However he also knew he needed to do some earnings for his new crew. Perhaps their run in could be turned to profit for both of them, "Hey, let's catch some fresh air. This place smells kinda funny anyhow since no one lives here." Conall gets up from his chair and heads for the door, once there he opens it up and holds it open for Minarika.

She stood up from the chair and put the mask ontop of her head feeling the bandages she followed him to the door and spoke quietly. "Does smell a bit funny in here huh." 

She stretched once outside enjoying the sun and looking around quickly. "What should we do today?"

"I figure we'd walk along and see what comes our way" Conall smiles at Minarika and starts walking down the sidewalk. As he walks along with his new found friend they make small chat getting to know each other. Finally after about half an hour Conall stops and leans up against a wall, he hopes Minarika will take the hint and casually lean with him. He nods his head down the way indicating a target out to her. It's an old man in a well dressed suit. He figures the man's got a fair bit of cash in his jacket by the way it is bouncing off his chest. It's just a mater of distracting him while the dead is done.

She smiled and nodded quietly following until they stopped at the end of the street. Watching the target her friend had appointed she went ahead with the task. Pulling her mask down she ran up to the man and lazily ran into him. When the man turned around she gently pushed the mask up and stared with a faint smile. "Sorry sir I didn't see you there." They sat and had a quick chat as Conall tried to take the chance for the pickpocket. 

Everything after that was a blur. The sudden spin the man had before sending his fist into Conall's chest and drawing a gun. The sudden sound of a bullet being fired. She was shocked and pulled her own gun and shot the man from behind before quickly moving over and dragging conall out off the streets and to the alley. She knew it was too late but she could only sit and speak to the lifeless body. "I am sorry you lost your life today. I wish I could make it up to you. If your kin finds me... I will make sure to let them know you were a kind soul. Thank you" She turned and left  quickly unable to do anything else but leave her mask on his chest.
