"What do you mean you don't think I can handle it?!" A girl's voice shouted waking me. I got up and pulled on my kimono, brushing my hair, and slipped on my shoes. I walked down the stairs and stopped dead. There stood Saya Minatsuki. My sister. The man whom she was arguing with looked up at me.

"Lucy, this girl says she can take on this guy." He held up a wanted poster. I stepped over and took it from him, then I looked at my sister who was staring at me.

"Saya Minatsuki. Yes, you can take him on, but you will need help. From me." I said causing the entire bar to gasp.

"Who said I needed help?" Saya said viciously causing me to jerk back.

"I did. I know this man. I tried to go up against him a few nights ago. He ruined my favorite kimono. Saya, you really should listen to family."

"You're not family Lucy! You left!"

"I was sent away! I left our home because my best friend was murdered!" This stopped Saya dead.

"I'm sorry Lucy, but I must ask that you don't interfere. I won't get enough money to share!"

"I'm not asking you to share. I want to see your skills." Saya sighed heavily.

"Fine. You can come. Come stay with me. We have much to talk about." I ran upstairs quickly packing my things and I paid Anita for letting me stay. Then I left with Saya.
