I wrote this chapter with a suggestion in mind. Boko asked for a chapter
about Ash, and I decided to write this. I hope you all like it.

BREATH OF FIRE 3: Up in Smoke!
Chapter Ten: Something a little Different.
Ash walked down through the stone halls of the Tower and came into the lab. He walked over and picked up the coffee he was making over the Bunsen- Burner. He took a drink from it and spit it out into a trashcan that he had on the floor, near by his feet. "Better than yesterday."
He then noticed that radio on the countertop was blinking, so he turned it on and held it up. "Yes, this is Ash?" He spoke through the radio.
"Hello Ash, this is Nina." Came the voice.
"Oh, hello Nina." Ash said as he turned on his microscope.
"Is Momo there?" She asked.
"Sorry, but her and Rei are busy right now." He replied.
"Really?" She asked.
"Yeah, can I take a message?" Ash asked.
"Thanks, that would be great." Nina replied.
Ash took out a notepad and pen. "Okay?" He asked.
"Just tell Momo that I'm going to be a little late for our lunch at the café." She stated.
"Sure, okay, I'll go tell her that when she comes back." He replied and then put the radio down and finished writing the note and put down the pad.
At this point, Jessie walked in- carrying a small crate- and sat down next to him. She set down the crate on the counter. "Hello Ash." She spoke in a very cheerful tone of voice and gave a cute smile.
"Hello, Jessie." Ash replied, brushing a stray strand of pale hair out of his face.
"Have you seen Momo or Rei recently?" Jessie asked.
"They're resting right now, they ran into some trouble on the way here and ended up in a confrontation." Ash replied. "So, they're a little tired right now." He added.
"Oh, did they say what happened?" Jessie then asked him.
Ash crossed his arms and leaned back in his chair. "The men who attacked them were wearing masks. At moment, they just assumed that they were bandits." Ash replied.
"Do you have a different idea?" Jessie asked, showing interest in where the conversation was going.
Ash smiled. "Actually, yes I do." He replied. "They were too well armed for simple bandits. I think that we're dealing with something a bit more complicated then that." Ash went on.
"Really, then why do you think they hadn't realized that?" Jessie asked him inquisitively.
"They probably will, once the adrenaline surge in their bodies wares off." He answered. "And when they come back down from their little high that they're most likely enjoying right now." He added with a wicked smile.
"Huh, what do mean?" Jessie asked, confused.
"They borrowed some of the samples from the plant and took it up stair with them. so, they've probably used it already." Ash replied calmly.
"Oh." Jessie replied, blushing slightly at the thought.
"I see you're blushing." Ash inserted suddenly.
Jessie jumped slightly in surprise. She then watched as Ash stood up and looked her with a smile. Jessie was starting to feel a little nervous.
"You must be thinking the same thing as me." He replied. He then looked her in the eyes. "Don't be afraid of blushing, it makes you look cute." He added and then walked off.
Jessie looked down at the ground for a moment and wondered why she suddenly felt so self-conscious in front of him. "Oh my." Jessie thought to herself.
Biggs watched as Ash walked by and frowned when he was sure that the man wasn't looking. "Damnit!" He thought to himself. "He's smooth!" Biggs thought to himself and kicked the floor with his boot.

Marcellus hit the wall and fell to the ground.
Ginorelli stepped forward. "You idiots!" He exclaimed. "I can't believe that you two couldn't kill those two freaks!" He screamed.
He stepped forward and looked down at Marcellus. "You were the one I trusted to take care of those two upstarts, so it is you who bares the responsibility for this disaster." He remarked and turned his back on him. "Get out of this office and out my sight!" Ginorelli screamed, his voice unsteady as he spoke.
Marcellus got to his feet and ran out of the office.
Ginorelli took out a cigar and lit it frantically and took a long drag off of it. He then turned to Bernardo. "No more playing around, make them dead, find them and make dead!" He instructed.
"Yes sir." Bernardo replied.
Ginorelli looked out the window. "We can't move our operations ahead until we have those two chumps out of the way."
~End of Chapter Ten~
Well, I finely got around to writing this chapter, and I'd just like to thing everyone who has reviewed this so far. Special thanks go out to Boko (for the idea) and to Tio for the incredible amount of support she has given me.
Also, I just wanted to say that I'm working on some other projects right now that have been forcing me to divide my time between them- working on 5+ fanfics concurrently is a lot of work. But, I'll try to maintain this story and update regularly.
I am working on a couple of other stories which I'll update before this story's next chapter is available. My "Gunslinger" story (a FF7 fic) and "The Cell" (an alternate BoF3 fic) are my two other major projects at the moment, and any feedback for them would be great. (The easiest way to find them would be on my Bio page)
