Black Thursday was a disaster, plain and simple.
We lost too many good people, too many planes.
We can't let that kind of tragedy happen again.
Melissa Mayfield


Why the hell am I in Japan again?Melissa bitterly asks herself, standing respectfully when the door opens to reveal the gentleman coming in from the electronic dings and clanks of metal balls in the parlor. She tries to relax but it can be clearly seen that she is out of her depth.

Here she is, a cougar from the East Coast having a midlife crisis stuck in the Far East doing odd bits, getting on the fight circut as the 'Number 1 kickboxer in the World' to get beaten up by the upbeat and oh God so loving annoyingly cheerful domestic talent right in the face, and seemingly pointless errands extending her visa and reducing her debt in Japan. All this so not to resort to the classical career of a foreign actress to be in the porn industry or worst.

Inhaling slowly, she wills herself to calm down so she can be ready when Minobe makes his introductions of the 'lesser' people inside.

Melissa bows slightly and respectfully, waiting to speak till Taka Jo is finished.

"My name is Melissa Mayfield and my specialty appears to be put in the spotlight while everyone in the background takes care of the important work," Melissa smiles wryly, "An actress by trade."

"Ah yes, thank you, it was fun to be in that play," Melissa nods, trying to frantic to recall the half-drunken, half-depressed hazed when and where playing that one night at something something God forsaken place in, where was that again?

"It was good that I seemed to be stretching my roles in unique and profitable ways that are unknown to traditional actresses not involved in the usual sidework," she coughs slightly over not wanting to offend anyone, but she is curious now to why she, the only apparently obvious foreigner of the group, is involved, well all in good time right?"

"Yes, yes we did see her loving sprouted like a beanpole," Melissa breaks the silence, wondering why she didn't take her family's advice to stay back home. "Ok, what are we suppose to be doing again? Pull a circus act so we can frighten them to pieces?"

She tries to relax from being agitated, inhaling and exhaling to get her thoughts in order.

"It would be easy enough to disguise her and to be fair, if none of us have heard about someone rampaging in downtown Tokyo, it shouldn't be that hard to keep it a secret if we are careful."

Melissa nods thoughtfully while hiding her glee at her chance to take the piss at someone remotely connected at her woes in this miserable country.

"After all, we are all here today to serve for the greater good."

"I hope you don't mean that literally, you know," Melissa snorts at Naomi, still unsure what to make of her. "I need to be honest with you, whatever you did in there, um, go us I guess?"

The middle-age woman shrugs her shoulders, depressed to be spending her time in such a miserable place so far from home. "We do what we need to do for our team. Anyway, if you don't need me, I'm crashing for the night unless you want to talk about the plan or have an awkward conversation regarding a bunch of foreigners."

"Soooo..."

"In the spirit of this team-building exercise, I say that we give it a go Joe," Melissa quips sardonically, "Considering all I know how to do is to take a fall, distract the eyes of your countrymen when they see a dumb blonde in a bottle, and other stuff, sure. I might has well see what I got in me."

"Remember, in America, there is no I in team but there is in teamkiller. Anyway, lead your way since we are your dates for the night."

Melissa's eyes slowly lift up to greet the sun, wondering for a moment where she is till remembering where she spent the night. Scowling, she stands up from the couch seeing Taka.

"Morning already? Great, a few more minutes till I have to justify myself to the 'respected people' I'm working for in Japan," she grouses, not really looking forward to making her illegal bread but well, fame and fortune in this rice-eating country.

"Got any tea or coffee? I need something to perk me up but not too much so I won't sound easily flustered when telling your mark the bearer of bad news."

Is out of it at the moment. Probably bad sushi + depression living in Japan. Will be active after the latest scene is done or a slap to the back of the head!

"I shall do my part to ensure that I am a functional cog by visiting the machinery of government who is responsible for delivering the mail," Melissa smiles wryly, getting out of the taxicab, then peeks back at Taka. "Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays this courier from the completion of their appointed task."

Melissa waves back at Taka before turning around to head to the post office, happy to let go of whatever was bugging her at this present moment.

"Yes yes yes," Melissa energetically replies, adding a mixture of bubbliness, friendliness, and a bit of an accent. "Oh my God, Japan, I love it! Everything about this place is efficient, courteous, and outstanding." Melissa slides forward to smile widely at the employee across the desk "Going to a different place is an adventure and the mail? Do you fine gentlemen also have the motto "Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds."?

Melissa smiles back at the worker behind the service desk before turning around and heading out of the post office.

Alright, I got a piece, now I wonder how we can make it work? Also, good thing you didn't say Waterworld or else you would have made an rear end of yourself. Heh.

Wouldn't it be all nice if they all fell down? Melissa emotionally stares at Gekido and Naomi, wondering why she brought up that thought and who she meant by they. It was hard to keep herself in focus later with all the things going on, drifting in and out till something interesting happens. Then the call to think, plan, and then action.

Until then, put out a facade till the next scene.

"So, what is the next step? What to do next? Advance the scene," Melissa sighs loudly, ignoring everyone at the moment while she tugs her hair.

Don't care what is going on, it isn't possible so might has well move forward to do what I need to do, she nods to herself, then drops her hands down while considering something.

"Do any of the tengu are involved in nihilism?"


ooc: This is to no one special. Right now, I like to consider she is lost in a self-induced daze.
