Haise glared at her, repeating his command a second time. "You are not going after Young Jack. He will kill you."
"I can handle myself." Christy was fixing her hair and make up, ignoring his commands as usual.
Haise grabbed her shoulders and turned her to face him. "Like you did with Enishi? And Tsukiyama?"
Christy pulled away from him, repeating, "I can handle myself."
"Are you trying to prove something?!"
Christy sighed. "What do you want from me Haise? You…don't trust me…and I want you to. That's all."
Haise stared at her incredulously, mouth opening and closing in shock.
"You look like a fish, Sassan." Shirazu laughed, confirming that the Quinxes were listening in.
"Stop fighting." Urie said firmly. "If she wants to help, let her."
Haise recognized that tone. Urie wanted to use her as bait! He put his fist down. "I won't allow you to go, Christy."
"But—"
"Not alone." Haise began fixing himself up.
"He is the one of us that looks the most feminine…" Shirazu muttered.
Mutsuki laughed under his breath.
Christy stared at Haise, shocked that he would go this far.
Haise looked into her eyes. "I do trust you. But I also want to keep you safe. I will not allow you to be harmed or killed, Christy."
"But I…"
"You'd better do as he says, Christy." Mutsuki smiled a little bit. "Sassan's always like this."
Christy snickered a bit. "Just like someone else I know…Alright Sassan, we'll do this together then. Just like always."
She shot him a wink and and he blushed, causing all the Quinxes to stifle their laughter.
