Black is the first one to step inside the carriage. Sitting next to him is Meat.
White looks at the horse's legs, now infused with the external suction.
"Looks like the horse isn't struggling a bit carrying that much weight.."
He looks inside the carriage.
Black says otherwise.
Black is sitting close to the edge — most of the seat space is taken by Meat's massive body.
"Ah, are you alright, Brother?" Meat asked.
"Yeah," he replied, annoyed.
White climbs up onto the carriage roof and sits down, then tosses the controller towards Silent, who's already sitting at the front.
"..."
"It's a controller. Hina said you could just control it since the horse will be dead in a few days," White said.
"..." Silent stayed silent.
"At least reply."
"..."
"Tsk."
After half an hour, they arrived at their destination.
[The Pop Girl's Territory]
The entire territory is covered by a barbed wire fence with different lights on it.
The Bringers get out of their carriage and approach a man standing outside the gate. White walks up to him. "hey~" he said in a casual tone. The man's expression quickly changes from neutral to annoyed — he makes a sign towards a tower next to the gate.
"Hey, what's with the expression?~" White asked.
The man remained silent. The gate started to slowly open.
"Just get in and don't cause any trouble," the man said.
"Of course we won't start any trouble~"
"You're friend in the back says otherwise."
"Just go on," Black said nonchalantly.
White nods. "Oh, by the way, have you guys see-" Before White could finish his words, Black grabbed his mouth and made a sign.
"Shh."
White shrugged, disappointed. As they enter the territory, they're met with buildings made of used metals but with different lights.
"This place is still lively huh~" White said with a tease in his tone.
"How about we go for a ride on one of these Mechanic's!" White said, his hands on Black's shoulder.
"No thanks."
"Me! Me! Brother, let's ride a few!" Meat raised his hand.
"Alright let's go!"
Both of them quickly left the group — Silent and Black remained.
"..." Silent looked at Black.
"Why did I let them? I trust White enough that he'll find our target," Black said casually.
Meanwhile, Meat and White are casually walking towards a lively crowd — everyone's having their own time in their own little world.
"WHAT THE FUCK THAT'S CLEARLY A JOKER?!" a man yelled.
Another man fixed his glasses. "Clearly the card says otherwise."
Then behind the raging man, two tall muscular dudes arrived.
"Huh, who the fuck are y-" The man's mouth quickly shut as he got beaten down.
"Don't mind them, Meat," White said.
Meat nodded. "But Brother, we've passed around 2 rides now..." Meat slouched his posture.
White used his elbow to hit Meat lightly. "Hehe, come on — a week ago you needed reference for writing fighting scenes, right?~"
"I did... But what has that got to do-"
White stopped Meat from talking.
"Shhh"
"We're here"
Meat and White are standing in front of a door in an alley.
"Watch me~" he said, grinning.
White kicked the metal door, and it swung open aggressively. The only thing they saw were 2 hairy men — one bent over with his pants undone, the other standing about to put his sausage in a black hole.
The four of them stared at each other for quite a few seconds before White broke the silence.
"I think it's the next door. Let's go," he said awkwardly.
Meat nodded and followed him.
Another metal door appeared — but instead of kicking it aggressively, White slowly opened it. Both of them entered, though Meat struggled a bit with the size of the door's opening.
White scanned the surroundings.
"Hm? It's just a foodery?" Meat asked.
Their surroundings were just people eating at their tables, with lights like the ones surrounding the territory — and in the middle, 2 girls wearing black lingerie dancing on a pole.
White grins behind his mask.
"Follow me," he commanded.
They approached a certain table loaded with food. Sitting there was a bald man wearing a sleeveless shirt — he's quite built.
"Watch carefully, Meat."
White pulled out a bounty paper.
Wanted Dead or Alive
100,000
(Prepared Alive)
Ali Alduv
He placed it down on the man's table and pulled out a knife, stabbing the bounty paper exactly at "Dead".
"Did you enjoy your meal?~" he said teasingly.
The place went silent. The two women dancing on the pole began to run. The bald man raised his right fist — it was flaming. White quickly dodged it. The bald man stood up, both his fists beginning to exert flames, then grabbed the table and threw it to the side.
The bald man had muscular features on his face — most noticeable was the scar right through his left forehead.
"Who dares interrupt my meal!" he yelled.
