Mori eyes a party of drunk men by the bar. Her eyes narrow in glee, they were like sponges, beer after beer, more and more. Mori grinned and bit her lip. 'Just a bit more...' One of the drunken men, topples over on a man who had been sitting on a stool next to him. The innocent man laughes like he was apart of the the group, and he was from the way the other drunkards laughed and patted his back.
Mori shook her head, for a moment there it looked like someone she used to know....She sighed and turned back to Zen who had asked her a question a few moments ago. Her lip was redder than it had been a few moments ago as she stopped biting it, Mori blinked. "Huh? Oh, yea I guess..." She couldn't really process the whole question because her mind was set on that man she used to know.
Mori looked outside the window of the resturant with a placid look on her face. Zen actually looked like him actually, same eye color: pine tree green, short black hair, soft facial freatures. Mori gave a happy sigh and placed some meat on the grill.

{Oops. I did it again. Waited about a week to post. Sorry about that. Anyway, NOW that I do know sure I will of course follow it.}
Zen's face went from about bright red to deep crimson. Several of the girls watching started to giggle. The guy was blushing so hard and the girl was looking off, trying not to see his face. How cute!
Zen gulped down his beverage and called for another one. Idly flipping over the meat he had, he pretended to take much care into the piece of meat in front of him. His thoughts were pretty much a mess; Mori had just called him cute. He started poking at the meat, hearing it sizzle. Ironically, that was how he pretty much felt like.
Aaah, the little boy is shy, the darker counterpart snickered. Oh get over yourself, dammit! Everyone's laughing at you so quit blushing!
The lighter side pushed him away, Oh don't listen to that bitter old voice. This is romantic. She's so obviously into you. It's only courtesy to compliment back.
Zen pondered the words and decided both of them were right. He was making a fool out of himself. So he calmed down, flushing the red from his face. Taking several gulps of water, and after placing his already done meat on his plate, he turned to Mori.
"Uhhh, thanks. I¡uhh..." he paused, silently encouraged by the lighter (and even a teeny tiny bit by the darker) side to go on. "Uhh...I think you're pretty cute too." And with that he turned to his plate, devouring the meat.
Gosh what have I done now?

Mori growled when she thought of him. Not the same man that she'd been think of before. The other man, not only did he betray Mori, but he was also obessed with her! Luckily in this city she was hopefully safe from him.
Mori looked up at Zen and blinked, she couldn't tell if he was hinting to help him with his future fan girls or if he was being serious. She blinked again and glanced at the girls, it was worse now. They were starting to gather. Mori groaned, now she knew why Zen would say that. He was a pretty good actor, Mori didn't know how he could make his face so red....maybe he was sick too.
'I'll just have to act as well!!!' In a flash she's next to Zen. She wraps her arms around his and nuzzles him affectionatly. "Really? You really think so?! She winks at him, leans up, and whispers in his ear. "Don't worry, those girls will go back to their dates in no time!! Just go with it!!!
She stole a look at the girls, they were fuming. That was normal....she was pretty sure at least. Denial was the first stage right?! Right?!?!

"Really? You really think so?!" , Mori said, probably a little louder than necessary causing about all of the girls there to start fuming. They looked like they were about to pounce on them any minute. He felt slightly elated at her response, but the fact a bunch of girls were ready to tear him apart? Not the most inviting thought. Mori leaned into him and wrapped her arms around him. He instantly froze and relaxed. A part of his brain was screaming at him for letting someone touch him. Especially if it was some sort of grapple. But the much more sensible part was screaming back. This was a hug at the very least. Nowhere near dangerous. He hoped. Don't worry; those girls will go back to their dates in no time!! Just go with it!!! Zen couldn't help but smile. Mori was so smart, intelligent, resourceful, his brain droned on for about three seconds before he snapped into reality. Ok, he thought. Calm down. Work with her so you don't screw up. He sighed, and made his face not so red. It was only barely successful. "Of course I do!," Zen said, wrapping his own arms around her and giving Mori a little nuzzle of his own. "You're the cutest one ever!" adding a little nuzzles for effect. The girls were absolutely fuming, and Zen thought they were on the verge of attack. Spinning her around, he made it look like they were kissing, but instead Zen leaned into Mori's ear. "Mori," he whispered. "I don't think its working. They are just getting madder and madder. What now?" {OOC: A. yes denial is the first of everything. B. Ugh I can't believe I wrote this }

((XD this is where writing fan fics comes in handy!!!))
Oddly enough, as Zen nuzzled her... Mori felt a little safe...well a hell of a lot safer than usual. Zen was warm, slightly socially awkward but that is extremely cute. She leaned into him a little, her ability to process thought was dimming. She forgot the rabid fan girls behind her, and the guys that were thinking: 'Lucky dog...' behind them. But it all came back once Mori bit her lip as she stole a glance at the girls. The 'warm and fuzzy' feeling in her stomach dissolved and was replaced with all adreline. They were about to rip her limb from limb....So much for that thought.
Zen leaned into her ear, so it would look like they were kissing to their oh so captive audience. "Mori, I don't think it's working. They are just getting madder and madder. What now?" Mori heard some guys laugh, at least someone was having fun right now!
Thinking quickly she patted Zen to tell her to let go. She walked out of the back door of the place, the girls followed her like hungry, rabid wolves.

{OOC: Great now we are going after fan girls of Conflict....Who actually saw this coming???}
Zen relaxed his arms and let go as Mori patted him. She headed for the back door, leaving Zen with no clue on what she was planning. Bu the most puzzling? The moment she left, Zen suddenly felt emptiness on his chest. When she walked off, it took all his self control in order not to pull her back, to keep her close to his heart forever. In those few moments he held her, that was his world.
He suddenly shook his head. Clearing the thoughts from him, he saw Mori being trailed by the now completely rabid and probably insane on more than one level girl straight into the back door. He looked around, told the waiter that he had to go off and be right back, and followed. He had no doubt that Mori could definitely fend for herself. It only slightly troubled him that there was so much more girls but she could probably handle it.
What did trouble him was how much damage she would do. It was be a little of an over do if they all had black eyes and bruises. It would probably be sufficient to simply scare them off. Crossing his fingers, he hoped Mori knew how to control herself.
Walking in, he stood a little off to the side from Mori. Every pair of eyes were on Mori now (with the occasional glance roaming over Zen's body, seemingly trying to undress him on the spot), and the glares were as sharp as daggers. He whispered to Mori, trying his best not to sound commanding in any way.
"Mori, you don't really need to hurt them. Or at least all of them. Just try to scare them away, okay?" he silently said. "Promise?"

Mori snorted. "Yeah, yeah, don't worry 'bout it!!" She put a hand on his bicep and pushed him a little. "Go make sure our meals don't burn to a crisp, I'll be back in a minute..."
Whether Zen left of not Mori stepped up and called the girls forward with an arrogant wave of her hand. She was going to give them one chance, hopefully one of them wouldn't be such a skirt-wearing pansy with way too much make up on. They charged, a flurry of claws to the face and some slaps were the best they could do though. She smirked, easily dodging all of them. She jumped into the air and did a flip. She landed in a crouching position In a flash the girls were unconscious, they wouldn't wake up for hours.
Mori walked back into the restuarant and grabbed the microphone from the hostess' desk. "Attention all dateless losers...your dates are in the back of the building. I repeat, your dates are in the back." Content Mori walked back to her's and Zen's booth and checked on the meat, her's shiskabobs were only slightly burned. She took them off the grill and took a bite.

Zen sighed. She has to be kidding me, he thought as he heard the announcements. He rushed out of the door before any of the guys rushed in, trying their best to awaken their fainted dates. You could help you know, the slightly optimistic side told him. But what fun would be in that?, snickered its dark counterpart. Sitting down at his table, he ordered two glasses of ice water. One for him cause he really was thirsty. The second one was Mori, so she could calm down a little. Looking at his plate, he began chewing away at his meat, savoring its nice taste. No sooner had he devoured it he placed another on the grill, satisfied to hear the sizzle of the meat as he poured the various sauces on top. Looking over to Mori, he saw her enjoying her own piece of meat. Wiping his mouth, he couldn't help but laugh at her. It was just too funny. In about twenty minutes, a band of Zen fan girls had appeared, to be shaken off and knocked out by Mori and then picked up by their dates. Some people started to turn their heads but he didn't care. Turning to her, he wondered what she was thinking at the moment. "Wow Mori nice job back there," he said with a foolish grin on his face. "Thanks for keeping all the fan girls away," he said with a grin and a hug, practically glomping down on Mori if she wasn't sitting down. {OOC: AHA! First to glomp IC!!! }

Zen had sat down next to her. She was on the inside now and he'd also ordered ice water. She took another bite of her meal. 'Dang this is good....!' Suddenly two arms wrapped around her, making her eyes as wide as dinner plates. Zen was hugging her. Mori tensed a little, heat exploded onto her cheeks. She allowed him -totally voluntarily actually- and then got him off of her by pushing his face. "Okay, love scene over Zen. The fan girls are gone, so we don't need to act like little love birds anymore....."
Mori swore her heart stopped beating for a second there. She took a hasty sip of her water and rubbed her temples. 'Am I the one getting sick or something....?' Her face was now only slightly red and she didn't feel normal...maybe it was all this close human contact....
Mori shook her head and twirled the skewer in her fingertips, this was oh, so confusing. She only felt like this once before, and she didn't know what it was then, and she still didn't now. She crossed her legs from under the table and leaned back in her seat, also crossing her arms. Too bad life didn't come with a manual.......

Zen almost sighed. Oh well, he thought. Sorely rejected...again! He couldn't help but laugh out loud at the thought. Looking at Mori, he simply didn't care anymore. Somehow, this girl had opened directly into him, deeper than most people would even want to go. He doubted there would be any situation where he would stand on opposing sides from her. No matter where she went, he would follow, even if he didn't consciously know it at the moment.
Turning to her, while still keeping an eye on perhaps the fifth of sixth meat he was burning on the grill, he asked her a question. "So how did you find this place?" He was trying to make some small talk, not very sure exactly whether he was saying anything right or wrong. Why must this be so hard?, he thought. God, I wish I had a manual for this.
Taking a sip of water, he didn't notice Mori acting a little nervous about his hug. Hell, he was too nervous himself to notice anything. he wondered slightly whether to keep eating or to talk when the peanut gallery exploded in his head, seemingly two sides yelling over and over again, forcing Zen to bend to either's will. He rubbed his temples a little and decided to compromise between the two.
Zen took a quick bite, swallowed, and turned to Mori. "You know any other places like these?" he asked. "Minus the rabid fan girls¡¯ part and maybe somewhere where underage drinking isn't so much allowed," he added with a wink. There, he thought. I ate, talked, and managed not to screw up.
Not yet, the duo seemed to say in unison for the first time.

Mori picked up her next skewer and bit the first piece of meat off. Soon a second piece was gone as well, that's when Zen asked his first question. "So how did you find this place?" She shrugged and bit off another piece, she swallowed and then answered. "Walkin' 'round the city." It was really the only thing she did besides train. She couldn't use her powers as well as she did 2 years ago. They had developed much more though, they'd become less bulky and became sleeker and faster.
"You know any other places like these? Minus the rabid fan girls part and maybe somewhere where underage drinking isn't so much allowed." Mori smirked in a friendly way and playfully hit Zen's bicep. "They take ID.....I think...." She raised a finger to her lips in a questioning way, after a few moments she took it away and looked at Zen with her usual bold expression. "Nah, but there are probably a lotta places like this on the other part of the city."
The bad part of course, and Mori's favorite part of the city. It wasn't the Underground, it was on the opposite side of the city. Thugs ran wildly, mugging people as if it was the end of the world. No old lady that had a shred of sense went there of course, but people looking for a fight went there. Mori had actually learned a few fighting moves there. There were also many resturants like this on those sides of the tracks.
Mori took a sip of her water as her last skewer cooked, she made a mental note to go back there later, to work off all this food.

"Nah, but there are probably a lotta places like this on the other part of the city." Mori said, before sipping from her water.
Zen nodded, aware at what part of the city she was talking about. It actually isn't a bad place, he thought. It was one of the first places he had checked out, and he easily found his place there. No one questioned him as he looked at fights, or rather, look for them. Being restricted from using his powers was always a great exercise and Zen actually started liking it there. This wasn¡¯t necessarily a bad thing until he had to move away.
Turning over his piece of meat, he once again added it to his plate and replaces it with another one. He took much time into dressing it up simply because Zen was becoming full. Mind as well make the last one go out with a bang!, he thought with a grin.
"Oh, I know where you are talking about," he said once he was done. "Never knew there were that many restaurants there. Just thought it was a good place for a nice fight," Zen continued. "Wanna go there later for a little fun?" he asked with a foolhardy grin on his face. "Or maybe just you against me...."

Mori smirked confidently. "Either way, whoever opposes me is going down." She ran her hand through her hair and watched her meal cook. Her smirk faded and she didn't notice a waiter leave a check on their table, he'd probably have been psychic or something, automatically knowing that they were done and all. Mori glanced out the window, feeling suddenly uninterested in what was going on around her. She watched her meat cook and when it was finally finished, she ate it quickly, but without looking like a total slob.
She wiped her mouth with a napkin and as she crumpled it she looked at Zen. "You ready to go yet?" She didn't wait for an answer, she just jumped over him and started walking out of the resturant, without looking back to the girls that had finally woken up and were going back to their dates. They were still angry. She knew though, for it radiated off of them like UV rays from the sun. Giving a small and uncaring 'hmph' she hooked her thumbs into her belt loops that were located in the back of her jeans, and strode out of the resturant.

{OOC: A VERY long wait. Sorry Ace it took me so long.}
Zen finished by food and took a sip of his drink, washing everything down. Looking over to the bill, he noted the money spent and decided it was a great deal. I should come here more often, Zen thought with a grin. As Mori started to leave, Zen left a small tip and paid the bill at the counter.
Looking back, he could still see the fan girls practically radiating off hate at the two of them. Shuddering, he wondered why some people could have such strong feelings. It wasn't like they knew him anyway...
Shaking away such thoughts, he went ahead to open the door for Mori and walked out of the restaurant with her. He decided some small talk would be nice, since he really didn't have all that much to say.
"So, about that fight," Zen said with a grin. "You sure you want to fight me first? A warm up before hand would be nice you know..." Zen couldn't help but smile as he said it. He left the comment like that, not really hinting anything by saying it. The fun thing was that it had multiple meanings, depending on how someone thought. He just silently hoped that Mori didn't think it was anything...inappropriate.
Yeah sure, the darker side thought. She definitely won't think of that. Idiot.

Mori nodded at Zen when he held the door open for her. She took another glance at their waiter and her eyes narrowed somewhat, so did his. The waiter's long, almost girly, eyelashes covered his red eyes a little, his dyed, spiky, neon green hair fell in front of his face. He wore the normal uniform and was currently ignoring a customer that was calling to him. She knew he couldn't do anything here, he would get into huge trouble. Smirking at the fact. she strutted out of the resturant and started to walk down the old and cracked pavement.
Mori cherished the lingering aftertaste of the meat on her tongue, she didn't have an official job, maybe an odd job here and there just to pay the rent but nothing other than that. So she didn't eat like this very often, she usually had to resort to eating at some cheap diner and then running away without paying. And then that meant she couldn't eat there again, it was hard to keep up with all the diners she could and couldn't go into.
Mori sighed and dug her cold hands into her pockets, and glanced at Zen once and then back down at the pavement. She was too busy thinking about the waiter to answer Zen's question immediately but once she processed it her hand shot out of her pocket and collided with Zen's side. "Idiot. If you keep on saying 'don't take advantage of me' then don't say something so dirty like that! You're giving me mixed signals....and all those signals make me want to hit you." Mori spat angrily.
She always knew men always wanted one thing, and that was insanely annoying. Especially when she just wanted some conversation, just to unwind, and all they were thinking of getting her. It was like their brain was in their pants....and if that was true, then why don't women rule over men?!
