Noir Story: The Ring (Part 1)

Age 855

Conton City

"It's raining...it hardly ever rains in Conton" a small beautiful girl with pitch black hair and red eyes as she smoked a cigarette outside of small cafe in Conton City's business district. "Noir...if you could cut the whole mysterious detective act for now, that would great" asked a tall black Earthling as he leaned on the wall towering over her and a short purple warrior-Namekian whom simply stared at the rain before realizing something peculiar about the situation.

"Noir...you smoke? Isn't smoking bad for Earthlings?" asked the purple Namek while hearing the sounds of growling stomachs go off next to him.

"It's not really a cigarette Timpani...it's Senzu Vapor...I have a sinus infection" explained Noir as the growls of hunger grow louder "ALRIGHT THAT'S ENOUGH! Michael how much money do you got?" demanded Noir to her colleague.

"About 46 Zeni" replied Michael Banks, the tall Earthling, as he emptied his wallet. "What about you Timpani?" Banks asked as the Namekian pulled out a bag from his pockets "67 Zeni...but it's not like I eat" replied Timpani.

"And I've got 20 Zeni on me" Noir said as she sadly stared into her purse "DAMN IT WHY ARE WE SO BROKE?"

"Because you have a gambling problem Noir and we haven't had a client in weeks" Timpani replied as Noir continued her fit before a small Majin female approached the ragtag trio.

"Excuse me...are you three the Noir & Associates Retrieval Company?" asked the petite female Majin name Keechan disrupting Noir's hissy fit "WHAT THE HELL DO YOU WAN-why...yes honey, we are Noir & Associates Retrieval Company specializing in everything from item retrievals to MIA cases and everything in between...how may I help you?" Noir said with a complete 180 turn in attitude.

"I lost something precious to me while on my last assignment...it was my engagement ring" explained the female Majin to the trio "it was during a Parallel Mission in Age 461 the time of the King Piccolo Wars. My fiance and I were ambushed by Time Breakers and while we managed to escape...I couldn't stop feeling guilty over the loss of my ring...he worked so hard to buy that ring" Keechan began to sob while explaining "Say no more Keechan, you'll have your ring back in no time!" Noir declared without hesitation.

"Oh thank you! You don't know how much this means to me!" Keechan thanked in glee as she payed the bill for the trio's lunch and raced off to her fiance.

"Well you two...get to work" Noir ordered to the surprise of Michael and Timpani.

"WHAT ABOUT YOU?" Michael asked in anger.

"I believe the company's name is Noir & Associates... as in I'm the owner and boss while you two lackeys are the employees. Plus I'm sick and in no condition to fight off Time Breakers so get to it!" Noir said quickly skipping away from the dual before turning around and saying "FIGHTO!" before flying off.

"We hate you Noir" Michael and Timpani said simultaneously.
