On the eighth day of Christmas Kitty gave to you! A second chapter of Vegas!
I decided to make this a mini-series because to get all the detail I want into the story and into a two shot would make the one-shot too long to finish and post in time so I will be posting short daily updates and making them as detailed as I can...I also seem to be catching a cold so focusing in writing is getting very hard, I will continue though! You have my word. On with the story!
3 days later
It took the gang three days to prepare for the trip. They had to book the tickets, first class of course, and pack up enough to last for 2 weeks just in case they don't get it solved quickly. The gang arrived at the airport and boarded their plane. Masako attempted to sneak into the seat next to Naru when she noticed no one had sat there but Naru saw the gleam in her desperate eyes and grabbed the sleeve of the first person he could to sit next to him, this was of course…Yasu.
Mai had already sat down between Monk and Ayako who were both fussing over her as it was her first flight and they were worried she might get nervous, Mai was actually calmer than her parent figures.
Naru looked at the pouting face of Masako who had resigned to sit next to John, he then looked at the grinning a slightly devilish face of Yasu….Yeah he made the right choice. Yasu opened his mouth as if he was about to say something very annoying so Naru acted fast, he threw a piece of toffee in Yasu's open mouth and turned to his reading material.
Yasu's mouth immediately closed around the sticky treat and he found it hard to open his mouth again, damn sticky toffee! Makes it impossible to bother Naru.
The flight when on in peace as Yasu still couldn't open his mouth, Naru and Lin were both reading , Masako was still pouting while John tried to talk to her and Mai fell asleep between Ayako and Monk effectively silencing them as they didn't want to wake their cute daughter figure.
It took many hours but finally the plane landed in Las Vegas and the gang couldn't be happier they all wanted to stretch their legs.
Once the plane landed the gang had collected their luggage and headed for the exit.
"Where are we going Naru?" Yasu asked now that he could finally speak again.
"We are meeting the owner of the Casino we will be investigating outside where he will give us a ride to the casino," Naru answered while his eyes scanned the crowd. "How many of you can speak English?" He added in an almost distracted voice, of course Naru wasn't distracted, it was simple task for him to search for someone and have a conversation.
"I can speak some small phrases but nothing much," Masako spoke up first fluttering her eyelashes and trying to make Naru look at her in any way possible.
"I can speak English I was the one who taught-"Yasu started but Mai clamped her hand over his mouth before he could finish.
"He taught me when I was in high school but I didn't take to it too well," Mai said smiling brightly at the group.
"I'm not surprised, some people just can't learn other languages," Masako said behind the sleeve of her normal long sleeved shirt, on Naru's advice she ditched the kimono for this trip.
"That's fine Mai, I didn't expect you to understand English," Naru said though he wasn't trying to agree with Masako.
Mai was silently fuming and Yasu couldn't help but smirk at what he knew she was hiding.
"Well, I guess it's fairly obvious that I can speak English, it's my first language after all," John said while smiling nicely trying to calm down Mai by moving the subject along.
"I see our client," Naru said pointing to a man who looked around 25 with light brown hair and blue eyes "Mr Sanders!" Naru yelled in English waving to get the attention of the man who waved back.
"You must be Mr Shibuya, who I spoke with on the phone," Mr Sanders said in a friendly voice.
"Yes and this is my team that I brought with me," Naru said gesturing at the group behind him.
"Ok, shall we head to the casino?" Mr Sanders asked and Naru nodded following the man out with the group behind him.
That's all for today, sorry I couldn't make it longer but I just can't focus too well. Tomorrow after some rest I should be able to write a kick-ass chapter!
