Mayhem...and a little dinner.
Joey and Rose arrived at the sushi restaurant, and he let Rose take the lead since this were her territory and all. They spent most of the taxi ride talking about small things and laughing at each other's jokes. He was still pretty new to the Big Apple, so he asked questions about the different places they passed on the way.

Walking inside, Joey finds himself drawn to the quiet, private atmosphere of the restaurant, and wishes more eateries were like this. It's not Xavier's, but it's cool in its own way, and having Rose as company makes it perfect.

The pair are seated and provided menus and get set up with their drinks. Joey looks over the menu and realizes that he doesn't know what half the stuff on it is, so he learns in to whisper to Rose.

"Okay, what's good here?" he asks.

	Only one thing put people out like that: being drugged. Rose popped her claws. "What the flamin' heck is going on here?" she demanded. "Start talkin', Missy, or I start gettin' stabby!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Joey was not having a good time of it. The world was spinning and he wanted to puke something awful, which he hated because he'd wanted Rose to have a good time.

Meanwhile, the waitress looked at Rose as other people began to stare at them. The waitress stepped forward and whispered.

"Listen, chicky. Sheathe the pig stickers and help me get Johnny to the back if you want him to live. I don't know who you are, and I don't really care, but I'm supposed to be watching his back. This is part of it.

He'll be fine if we get him out of here before the rest of your friend's friends show up." she says. Rose will immediately notice that the waitresses accent is gone.

	Rose reluctantly sheathed her claws. "So help me," she snarled under breath, "if you're lying, you won't live to regret it." She didn't like what was going on, not one bit. But she also wasn't going to gamble with Joey's life. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

The handsome man is momentarily distracted from his food as the scene unfolds, but he doesn't pay it very much attention. He enjoys his hot saki, finishes his shrimp roll and places a small bit of cash on his table.

As he does so, he is carries on a mental conversation with his teammates.

The girl cannot be unnecessarily harmed, people. Kill the boy and any bystanders if needed, but Miss Logan is not to be permanently damaged. We want no mistakes. he thinks to himself.

Ruckus, Slab, are we clear?

	CLEAR GEORGIE! Ruckus thinks to herself. A klazomaniac, Ruckus is motivated to scream when speaking. This even applies to her mental conversations. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Ugh. Fine. I get to kill the fun boy, though, if I can't kill the wild child. Slab says, waiting across the street from the sushi house. George...can I get an eggroll while you're in there? he asks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Slab, shut up. Vertigo says. She has no idea why they get saddled with Slab's idiocy, but the Boss finds him useful for some reason. She snorts under her breath, and reaches down to pat Bloodhound's head. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Bloodhound merely growls at the side entrance to the Sushi bar, waiting for someone to appear. Then he can do what the Boss told him, to do, and take the girl. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Despite being short, Rose was an extremely fit young woman, deceptively stronger than she looked. Getting Joey toward the back was not an issue. Trying to figure out just what was going on here was. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Her estimation of the smaller woman went up a couple of notches as she watched her carry Johnny to the back of the restaurant. She was still trying to figure out exactly what kind of scheme her pal was running on this one, but she hadn't placed it yet.

The moment they hit the back area, the waitress rolls her neck and gets several loud pops in response, before resuming her "normal" form. Her skin pales, and her hair becomes a shade of electric blue that looks too natural to be a dye job. Her revert from brown to a deep yellow-gold, and her work uniform is replaced by skin-tight leather pants and coat, with a skimpy tube top underneath.

"Girlie, I don't know how you pissed off who you pissed off, but bringing Johnny into it was a bad idea. Normally, I'd leave you to whoever wants your head on a stick, but Johnny might take offense to that, so I'm gonna help you a little." she says, reaching into a slits on either of her thighs and producing to Desert Eagle handguns.

"You and me are gonna drive these bastards off, and then I'm gonna take Johnny and get the hell out of Dodge. We clear?" she asks, cocking the gun and locking at Rose meaningfully.

Shapeshifter. Of course. Well, Rose had your scene now, lady, if you ever came prowling around again. She didn't know what Joey was involved with or how he rated what might have been a guardian angel, but if he'd gotten hurt because of her...

And just who the hell could be after her? This wasn't even her universe!

No. Couldn't think like that. Focus on protecting him, doing the job, then worry if you live.

"Crystal," Rose snarled. Not that she was letting anybody take Joey with them on her watch. Not without her anyway.

"Okay. There was one guy out there, tall, brown hair, British accent, black coat who was watching you and Johnny. He showed a few minutes after you walked in, and paid more attention to you than me when I went to his table. I tried to slip him the same thing I slipped Johnny, but he got wise to it." she said, a note of distaste in her tone.

"There was also a guy in the alley across the street. Hispanic, by the looks of him. My car is parked a couple of blocks over. It's a Black Dodge Charger, no plates.

All we've got to do is get over there alive and in mostly one piece. Which means--" she pauses and leans down, pulling a couple of pungent smelling salts from inside her coat and waving them under Joey's nose, "--that everyone has to pull their weight.

Get up, Aussie. We're leaving now." she says.

Joey grunts at the scent of the smelling salts and groans in protest, slapping the hand away. When he looks up, he sees Rose...and Foxx.

"Foxx? What are...you doin' here?" he asked.

"Savin' your cute little Aussie as. I can't leave you alone anywhere, can I? You just turn around and start messin' with the natives." she says, nodding in Rose's direction.

"Chill, Foxx." Joey says, a little more forcefully than intended. Foxx's head rocked back as if slapped.

"Oh, you're kidding me. This...isn't a con, is it?" she asks.

	"This was a date," Rose growled. She popped her claws. "But apparently, it had to turn into stabby time." Her looks softened for a minute. "Joey, I... this is 'cause of me. Don't know how or why, but... I'm sorry." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Hey, you stop that right now." Joey says, looking her in the eyes.

"You didn't set out to get jumped by a bunch of crazies while you were out havin' fun, so there's no reason to apologize, since I don't blame you at all.

But if these guys think I'm gonna sit by while they come after you, they're in for a rude awakening." he says, feeling his strength come back to him bit by bit.

"I'm ready to move when you two are. Don't worry. I'll keep up." he says, getting unsteadily to his feet.

Foxx watched the back-and-forth and rolled her eyes.

"Do two want to declare your undying love start making out on the counter now? I can go outside and tell our friends that you two are having a moment and ask if they're willing to wait." she says, pointing at the door.

"Johnny, fry the first thing you see when we walk out there. Claws, stab something until it doesn't move anymore.

I'll handle the rest." she says, and turns to go for the door, a wave of agitation rolling off her.

	"I'll make this up to you," Rose told Joey. "I promise." Rolling her eyes at Foxx's comments, she followed after as she headed for the door. "Let's go mess some people up." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Hit 'em hard, hit 'em fast and let's move," Rose said. She gave the door a good kick for surprise and let out a roar as she charged. (Reply to this)(Parent)
