Chapter 1: Orient Town Restaurant

The chinese restaurant in the middle of Orient town... Ragna`s favorite place to be.

It was quiet, peaceful, just like the rest of the town, but what was the best about it was the waitress, who apperantly had short time memory loss. He ran off without paying for the meal once, he had avoided capture three times, destroyed the interior twice over... and yet she served him food with a smile.

Today was different though.. today, the quiet part was gone.

"Oooooh! Ragna, look... there are like, fishes in that pond and some junk! Nu likes that!"

Nu was close to jumping into the koi pond, but Ragna dragged her along on her braid.

"Stay close until you had diving lessons. Now, do you cyborgs even eat and all that...?"

Nu nodded, smileing despite the rude act Ragna had done by pulling her hair like that.

"Oh, yes! Nu likes eating food! Its like, a heavenly pleasure, you know!"

Well at least thats something we have in common... but this is still a forced kind of date.

"...Uhuh. Now then..." Ragna sat down at a table near the middle of the restaurant, trying to blend into the crowd and avoiding nosey looks from outside. "..what do ya wanna eat, you swordhaired oddball?"

"Hmmmmmmmmmmm~" Nu looked at the menus, studying them throughly for a good five minutes, then handing it to Ragna. "Nu can`t read and all that. Nu will just eat what Ragna likes to eat."

Grumbleing, a sweatdrop appeared on his forehead as Ragna realized what a horrible idea this whole thing was. "Rrright..."

Well, lets see here.. i can`t order a peking duck, those things can be lethal projectiles.. i barely survived the Kagutsuchi puffer fish, the Azure Seafood Special outta give her bad, bad ideas... and the kids menu probably would insult her... damnit, what do i do... Ah, thats it... the plate of seven wonders... i ordered five of those for this Sena bastard back then..

"Allright then! Waitress, I`m gonna take one number 32, a soda for me and.. something without sugar for my 'friend' here..."

Nu looked suprised. "Like, why no sugar for Nu?"

Ragna grumbled in response. "Because god knows you`re hyperactive enough as you are, little fellow. Its free for you, stop complaining."

Like always, it didn`t take long for the meal to be served as since it was kind of a fast-food fashioned restaurant, and Nu dived right into it as if she never ate anything before. The first dish was soon empty and so was the second, third, fourth... out of seven, they made it to the sixth before Nu was anywhere near full, and Ragna at least satisfied his general appetite. At least the soda helped him there, drinking it filled him up just for a short time, but as soon as he`d be hungry again Nu was probably already gone.

Speaking of her, she`s really quiet when she`s eating. Thats a good sign, i think.

"Mhh, Ragna! That was like, delicious! And this sugar free stuff was tastey too!"

Ragna forced himself into a smile. "Glad you liked it... now, uhm, Nu..could you do me a favor..?"

The little girl looked at the man with a blank expression. "...what?"

"Could you just... i dunno, hold your stomatch and squeal and all that and pretend to be sick from the food..?"

Nu blinked, then smiled brightly. "Okay! Nu can do that!" She started immidiantly after saying that, gripping her stomatch in visible argony. "GWAHAA! Aahh.. Aaahh!" She fell off the chair and twisted on the ground. "GHAAAAHA! That hurrrrrrttts! Ragnaaa!"

Ragna twitched. "Don`t say my name so loud, damn you!"

The waitress appeared on the scene, tapping her chin as she heard the name. "Oooooh! You be Ragna the Bloodedge, yes! You come here often, yes! Ragna the pedophile! Me remembers!"

Nu looked up with a twisted face. "He`s not... he`s no pedophile.. Nu loves him! She loves him lots and lots! Nu wants to make new Prime Field Unit`s with Ragna all by herself!"

Ragna`s face fell apart even more. "...you want to WHAT?"

The waitress cared little for that.

"Somebody! This is Ragna the Pedoedge! Someone call the Liberary!"

"Ooh, fuck."

"And some junk. :3"

Ragna grabbed Nu`s hand, pulling her onto his back, then dashed to the exit, but was blocked by Iron Tager, who just entered the restaurant.. and god knows there was no way around him.

Changeing his plans, he jumped over one of the used tables and crashed through the window to get outside.. a convient peking duck fell off the table and near Tagers feet, causeing him to slip and create a more than suitable distraction for Ragna and Nu to escape.
