"Any comment?"
She paused and looked at the crowd around them, typical for a bar.
"Later." She told him and finished her drink. "Tell me about the girl in the meantime."
"Tall, pushing six feet, pretty bust-"
Reiko smacked him and growled. "Personality, Character Type, Personal History, things that would make her..." She paused again. "One of us."
Tomonari smiled a bit. "Very headstrong, not likely to back down from a challenge." His face fell. "There's a reason that Tarvos chose her..."
"Really? What is it?"
"She's trying to 'Avenge' her father, if you know what I mean." He took another drink and looked at Reiko.
"Really now?...that makes sense." She murmured.
"Yeah, definetly." Tomonari finished his drink and stood. "Let's go and talk to her."
Reiko nodded and both of them walked out. As soon as they were out in the crisp night air, she was able to say what she really needed to.
"None of the Epitaph Users besides you and Kuhn have been able to summon our Avatars, or even detect them for that matter." She told him.
"That's odd...both Haseo and I were able to summon."
"That's just it. I've done some research, Tomonari. Just after you three entered the US Server, it expirienced a system malfunction of sorts. Six large pieces of Data left the Japan server and entered the US Server, joining your already present Epitaphs."
"So you're saying that the Epitaphs transfered in the malfunction."
"Yes." Reiko murmured and pushed her glasses up slightly. "I believe so."
"What could've caused it then?" He asked.
"What caused the creation of Epitaphs?" She asked him rhetorically and then murmured. "I honestly don't know."
He nodded and gestured for Reiko to get in his car, which she did. As soon as she was in, he shut the door and ran to his side. She smiled at him and looked at the sky.
"You like her, don't you?" Reiko asked, her voice lofty.
"Yeah, I guess so." He responded
"But she's like every other girl."
"No...not quite...there's something different about her.." He said, his eyes on the road.
"What? Her eighteen-year-old body?" She asked.
"You wish. She's legal by the way." He pointed out. "But no... I don't know how to describe it."
"Whatever. You were probably just drunk." She growled.
"I don't continually drink, Reiko."
"Sure you don't." She muttered as they pulled up to Katie's apartment
"Try not to scare her, hag." He told her.
"Screw you too."
