Snow let the man lead her, "Whaths your name?" she asked with a smile.

The man answered most of the basic questions Snow asked. According to what Blaze knew, he was probably being truthful.

Raven handled himself alright when Snow left. He started asking fewer helpful questions to keep a low profile now that his bodyguard was gone.

Snow giggled again, "You're muth better than my ex!" she decided, rubbing herself on his arm.

It was soon apparent that the girls in his company were getting too drunk to be of much use anyway. They started asking Raven questions though.

After a few blocks, their destination came into sight. Immediately, Blaze indicated it as Yin Long territory.

--

Raven answered some questions, but managed to dodge and get rid of them. He was finishing up a light drink before moving on when a bit of an odd ball sat near him at the bar. He was fully decked out in mostly black including gloves and a mask that covered the majority of the face which had recently become a popular fashion accessory. He was immediately cautious, but Blaze couldn't tell if he was a threat or not.

Snow ignored her, proceeded onward.

--

Frei knew nothing either, she didn't seem to like the look of him.

Blaze sighed a little. She didn't bother marking anyone when Snow went inside. They pretty much all looked like they were in Yin Long. Once they were inside, the flirter split up from the rest of the men and started leading Snow off to the side.

--

After a little while, the mystery man initiated a conversation with Raven. And after a few exchanges, Blaze rolled her eyes. The man appeared to be no threat at all. Just a shy, timid man with a small crush on Raven. Raven seemed to take a little pity on the socially awkward man and stayed a little longer to talk with him a bit. It wasn't like he'd get much more done on his own anyway, right?

Snow followed again, still appearing tipsy as she clutched the ring in one hand and pressed her chest into the man's arm with her other arm.

The man got some more drinks before bringing Snow to a more private area.

--

Raven and the man's conversation was rather bland. And since Snow was in more danger, Blaze focused on her.

Frei watched calmly, "She's not as good as Rosen, but she also specializes in this," she stated after a moment.

"C'mooon~" Snow whined, "I wanna try it!" she said, flashing the ring once more.

--

Wolfe entered into the infirmary just as the nurse was checking Yue for the night. He looked right at Yue, "She went to Chicago."

The man was falling for it. He took another drink before reaching out for the ring.

--

Yue's gaze went slowly to the floor.

Snow let go a little too early and the ring dropped to the ground, "Wah~" she cried out as she tried to bend down to get it but lost her balance.

--

"Is there anything you know that Blaze doesn't that we should be aware of?" he asked. The nurse let the two talk as she checked on Nic.

The man chuckled and tried to catch her.

--

Yue thought about it a little while, but shook her head.

Snow let the man catch her, giggling up at him, "Thanks," she said with a smile as she picked up the ring with his help.

--

Wolfe nodded and turned the leave. The nurse sighed, "That could have waited," she muttered. Wolfe ignored her.

"Had a little too much to drink?" he asked.

Snow giggled again, "I dunknow..."

"Ready to try it?" he asked.

Snow grinned and nodded.

So the man got it ready and carefully handed Snow a smoke for them to share.

Snow took a long whiff and immediately started coughing.

The man laughed at Snow, waiting for her to get used to it.

Snow finally seemed to get the hang of it. "It burns... my throat," she whined a little before suddenly laughing. It seemed to be working already.

--

Frei smirked a little as she watched Snow.

"Then it's working," the man reassured her.

Snow coughed a little again before handing the paper over to the man.

The man took it. And unlike Snow, he didn't cough as he blew some smoke out his nose with a chuckle before working his way closer to Snow.

Snow giggled, "Like a..." she seemed to lose her thought for a moment before giggling, "dragon..."

The man breathed in some more and blew more smoke out his nose again before chuckling again with Snow.

Snow giggled again before leaning in a kissing the man.

He liked that, pausing after awhile to take some more and offering some more to Snow.

Snow took some more and passed it back, trying to get the 'dragon' to take more.

He did. After awhile it wasn't clear if he was more interested in Snow or the drug.

Snow continued to giggle before suddenly bursting into tears, large tear drops with loud sobs.

--

Frei yawned a little, laying down with her head in Blaze's lap.

The man started to laugh at her. "You want some more?" he asked.

--

Blaze rolled her eyes a little, looking a little disappointed at how easily the Yin Long were falling for Snow's tricks.

Snow kept sobbing but managed a large inhale. "H-He... left m-me... for a Blackie!" she exclaimed. "An... And... she did... n't...evun" she swallowed a bit, "have hair!"

"How awful," the man told her, pulling Snow closer.

Snow started crying on his shoulder, "It... it was... awful," she agreed, hugging the man and pressing closer to him, "I... think he... bought it from her..." she sobbed, pointing at the ring, "I want to... use it all!"

The man offered her some more. "There, there.." he told her. "Jthust forget 'bout tat boulder."

"Make me forget..." she said quietly as she moved in, "about that boulder and the girl... with a plant name."

The man put the paper down carefully before moving in. "I'll make you furget bout tem planet boulders," he promised her.

Snow sighed inwardly. She grinned as she suddenly kissed him... and kissed him... and kissed, not letting him slide back for air. She could hold her breath for a very long time. She intended to knock him out.

The man didn't seem to realize it until he was already starting to pass out. Snow's plan worked perfectly, and he was knocked out cold.
