After having lost her Ranking Match against Travis Touchdown, Shinobu had been admitted into the local Santa Destroy hospital. During her time there, many of the other assassins (except for Destroyman and Bad Girl, because he's a jerk and because she's too drunk to find her way there) came to visit her. Yet...not once did she ever smile or show any emotion other than a soured frown on her face. Not even finding out she'd still be able to have that arm Travis sliced off get reattached cheered her up.

Then Harvey Moiseiwitsch Volodarskii canceled a big-scale performance to visit poor Shinobu.

However, when she first saw him come through the door, she rolled her eyes and grumbled, "Go away, Harvey. I'm not in the mood for you or your...unique sense of humor...OR YOUR MAGIC TRICKS!"

Harvey shook his head. "Sorry, but it is my job...nay, my destiny to entertain the masses with my wondrous tricks of magic and mystery! Plus...I would hate to leave such a lovely lady as yourself looking so sad..."

"I told you...I'M NOT IN THE MOOD!" Shinobu snarled, her voice rising in anger.

Leaning in close, Harvey studied Shinobu for a moment, causing the girl to move back nervously.

"W-W-What are you d-doing...?"

"You know...you don't look like an assassin..."

"...Then what do I look like, Harvey?"

"...YOU LOOK LIKE SOMEONE WHO NEEDS A HUG!"

Before Harvey could even wrap his arms around her, Shinobu landed a swift kick to his face, sending him reeling backwards into his chair.

"I'm really sorry I had to do that, Harvey" Shinobu said, not sounding as sorry as she proclaimed to be, "But I'm really upset right now and I don't need to really interact with anyone; I mean, all the others just chatted for a bit and then left! You, on the other hand...you just keep causing me trouble..."

"Huh...?"

"JUST GO THE FUCK AWAY!!" Shinobu snapped.

Harvey's eyes fell and he stumbled to form words in his thick Russian accent. "I...I'm so s-sorry. I didn't think...I mean...I didn't mean to upset you. I just...I just came over to visit you and...and-"

Seeing the poor magician man break down like this made Shinobu feel terribly guilty. So, she said as quickly as she could, "Harvey...fine, I'm sorry for what I said. You can stay for as long as you want!"

When he heard this, Harvey immediately cheered up and stuffed a chocolate muffin in Shinobu's mouth. "Eat it all up!" he exclaimed, "I got alot more to give you!"

As Shinobu ate, she rolled her eyes and thought, 'Man...that guy can be so fruity sometimes...'

"We can give you a haircut while you're eating this bran muffin I made for you, too!" Harvey suggested as he tossed another muffin in Shinobu's hands and pulled out a pair of scissors and comb from his pockets. For some reason, Shinobu wasn't too surprised when she figured he always carried those accessories around with him.

He ended up giving her a mohawk...which was quickly fixed. "IT'S CALLED A FOHAWK, NOT A MOHAWK!"

After all was said and done, Harvey bid farewell to Shinobu and snatched one of the muffins that were left over on his way out. When she laid down in her hospital bed to rest, Shinobu was smiling a bit...which meant Harvey had accomplished his mission.
