Black stared at the wild landscape that was Treasure Town... his town.
"This is a great place to spot the bad guys; they'll never see us coming from here."
He grinned as he listened to White's senseless babble, turning to look at his younger brother. How he could live in his own little world in a place like this was anyone's guess, but Black was used to it by now. Besides, White still paid attention when it was important.
He turned away again, looking at the torn and beaten display before him.
This town became rougher and more run-down by the day; it was amazing that it had survived this long. And no matter how long it survived, Treasure Town would always play host to battles. Yakuza, cops, any local wise-guys... they all fought to own Treasure Town.
And he would strike them all down where they stood.
Nobody could take his town.
Nobody would.
Nobody.
Feel the darkness...
"Why did she give you money?"
Black blinked, looking back at White.
"Who?"
"Agent Yuki. I saw her give you money." White had his head on one side, looking at Black curiously. "Why did she do that?"
Black sighed slightly, leaning back against the sign they were stood in front of.
"It's nothing, she was just saying thanks."
"I think she wants to come."
"Excuse me?" Black raised an eyebrow.
White gave him a conspiratorial smile.
"I think she wants to leave with us. Remember how when the piggy gets fat we'll ride in an aeroplane? Agent White thinks she wants to come too."
"I don't think that's what she meant by it."
"But Black, she knows what it's for!" White grinned again. "Methinks Agent Yuki is a very smart girl, she's being very sneaky."
"White," Black looked seriously at his brother. "If Miyuki really wanted to come she knows all she has to do is ask. She wouldn't pay us to take her." He smirked, giving his brother a playful punch on the shoulder. "Anyway, she wouldn't be too happy if you were slacking on your watch now would she?"
"Agent White is doing his job, roger that! We is gonna get those bad guys!"
Black laughed at this, shaking his head slightly as he started watching the town again.
"Black?"
"Hmm?"
"Would you want her to come?"
Black hesitated a moment before responding.
"I wouldn't say no. Why? Do you want her to?"
"Agent Yuki likes Agent White, he helps her defeat the bad guys."
"I'll take that as a yes then."
The two stood in silence for a long time. While White searched for signs of trouble, Black thought about what he had said.
Truth be told, he wouldn't have minded if Miyuki came with them. He quite liked having her around. There was only one problem, something he couldn't tell White.
Black wasn't even sure he wanted to leave Treasure Town.
