For a moment I closed my eyes waiting for my impending doom but after a while I found my brains were still intact and before long I sighed remember she had not reload the ammo.
"Damnit!" Cussing I opened my eyes and stared resentful at the woman now laughing her ass of as she retracted the gun from my face and twirled it around.
"Hehehehe..you should have seen you face. You also pissed yourself."
"Yeah..yeah.. it's not funny."
In a grumpy manner I crossed my arms looking at her with a bleak and unforgiving look..I never realized Aria was a trickster but now that I knew, I promise myself to never fall for her pranks again.
That woman, what did she expect when she pointed the gun at me. I wasn't some actions movie Hero whom will remain unfazed by a gun in the face. That kind of situation was scary almost as scary as being eaten alive by a Cpytic, which trust me I had experience way more time than I needed to.
"Let just get this over with."
With a sigh I gave a curious look to the handgun she was twirling around. They were two of a pair with one still nested within it's case while Aria played with the other.
"The one with the blue strip....Jet as Lucas had named it fires of a custom made electric infuse bullets potent enough to stun a D class cryptic and wound a C class."
Passing the gun to me to examine it, I was left bewildered by how soft it was to touch. It surface were undoubtedly metallic but it has a sleek sensation to it as it I was carass the surface of polished solidified clay.
As far as shapes go, it was designed like a normal handgun with a blue strip lining across from it's barrel to it's trigger.
"How many rounds does it fire?"
"A maximum of eight with the final bullet amplified enough to fatal wound a C-class."
"Sweat."
Firmly positioning the gun within my grasp, I placed my finger on the trigger and pointed it as Aria whom shook her head and retrieved the other twin.
"This one is called Set, like it's twin it fires eight shot with the final an amplifier one but unlike it's twin it's bullets are raw energy based. Hot enough to melt through mid Mechanical type cyptics and powerful enough to overload their systems."
"So Jet and Set."
Taking the other twin and taking a twin gun stance, I found myself smirking at my new upgrade until I remember the fucking cost.
"In case you thinking of that no they can't be loaned."
Reading my mind, she shook her head in disbain preparing to take the guns of me.
Suddenly my mind began to ran, I wasn't going to lose to this arsenal. They were too cool and powerful but if I took them, I'll be broke for months but if I also left them, then it could been taken by one of those random Demiurges.
"Think... think... think."
Overloading my mind to come to a conclusion I pulled my arms back just before Aria could take them.
"Can I divert payment." I smirk a sinister plan taking root in my mind.
"Oh!" Aria blinked a bit surprise before bringing forth the most professional and scheming smile as possible.
"Ofcourse."
I would probably pay for what I was about to do but alas I wasn't visionary thinker, I thought in the present so good luck to future me.

"So two techno handgun,. some smoke grenades, a new tactical jacket...."
Ignoring Aria rummbing, I took my purchase and began walking out the building, the professional secretary too engrossed in reading my list of purchases didn't so much as notice as I sipped away and soon found myself back in the streets towards my home.
Along the way a trio of teenager whom were surprisely Demiurges could be seen roaming about with much care.
"Mio...Mio...look...look it's a cat girl."
Hopping up and down the energetic one exclaimed.
"Sky what have I told you about pointing unnecessary at others. Girl come on can't you let it be more discreet." The cool one slapping the energetic one's hand's yelled.
"Hey...no hitting." The oldest and mature intervene trying to stop the abuse.
Watching the go about their antics, I could tell they were probably fresh blood. They had just arrive without knowing much about the horros that awaited. I use to be like them four week ago but now....
"I just hope they wouldn't change too much by the time I'm assigned to them."
Sighing softy I turn my gaze of them and continue watching home, taking in the soft atmosphere that hardly lasted long in this place.

"Commander you're back!"
Arriving at the door leading to my apartment, I found Isis waiting for me with a worried look in her eyes.
"What wrong?"
At first I panic thinking that something had happened to one of my other teammates and quickly approached her but soon I just realized she was worried about me which I decipher quite easily because just as I noticed her expression she kill it and gave a nonchalant one.
"Nothing."
Grabbing the goods in my hands without my permission, she lightly kicked the door to my apartment gesturing for me to open it.
"Why is it so hard to be honest."
Thinking to myself, I took out my key, inserted it into the door and open it.
Isis was the first to enter my humble home, treaking through the living room and placing most of my newly purchased gear on the living room table.
"I'll be leaving then."
Believing her assistance was no longer needed to turn to leave but .....
"Wouldn't you stay for dinner."
"Tch...I'm not as easy to entice with food like AI."
Walking away before I could respond she close the door and left leaving me hanging with a blank look.
"Why is it so hard for her to be honest."
Thinking such one's more, I resigned myself to my fate and collapsed onto the only couch in the living room.
