"Okay well that was weird" Giga said casually as he scratched the back of his head through his armour, peering back over his shoulder at the closing Guild Hall doors, "So what are you gonna' do?"

                "Ey? What do you mean?"

                "You actually gonna' do this...? The Guild Master knows I'm not ballsy enough to disobey an order like this, but you, on the other hand..."

                "What's that supposed to mean?" Fenrir smirked, the amusement evident in his tone as the pair started to descend the stone stairs back to chaos that was now the morning's trade and Hunter Contracts. Giga laughed softly to himself as they walked, peering at Fenrir from the corner of his eye as their combined presence parted the crowd.

                "Remember that one time you were meant to Kill a Barioth, but instead you trapped it, brought it back alive and set it loose in the Jaggi Pen because one of them bit you the week before?"

                "Yeah, well, little fucker had it coming didn't he" Fenrir replied with a smirk and Giga simply shook his head.

                "My point is, I don't think it would surprise the Guild Master if you drop out from this"

                "Yeah well, if he didn't need two of us, he wouldn't have called for two, right? Maybe I'm the back up to save you from getting your ass handed to you by a girl"

                "Well she is an Elite's Daughter" Giga shrugged as they rounded another corner, the main Market Square in sight down the length of stalls they walked through, "I'm getting the feeling we won't be surprised when we see her"

                "Apparently not, since we'll 'Know her when we see her'" Fenrir quoted with a sigh as he looked skyward, the morning sun already so intense and burning up the red stone beneath their boots, "After this I am so hitting a bar, you up for a--". A sudden, strong and abrupt impact against Fenrir's chest made him stop and catch his footing, "HEY! Watch it!", the person running however, was now flat on their rear in front of him staring up at him in not only shock, but fright.

                "I-! I'm so sorry!" she whimpered from under her half masked face, hazel eyes staring up at the heavily armour clad Hunter that leered over her, the sun blinding down behind his head, making his dark and jagged armour even more terrifying, "I-I was just--"

                "Hey there you are girly". She gasped as her head snapped back over her shoulder to a pair of men, Hunters, now making their way over through the crowded market.

                "Uh-oh.." Giga breathed quietly as he felt Fenrir frown behind his visor.

                "Get up..." Fenrir said calmly but angrily, his eyes locked on the two still struggling to advance through the crowded street. When the girl looked to him and hesitated, Fenrir growled, "On your feet, now, and get behind me". Giga offered her his hand and didn't give her much time to second guess about taking it, hauling her to her feet and calmly shoved her behind Fenrir.

                "Ey? What's this then... You didn't tell us you were meeting anyone, who you supposed to be?" one of the men asked as they approached, hands to his hips as he eyed both Giga and Fenrir from head to toe.

                "That's none of your concern. Leave" Fenrir said flatly, his tone dark and blunt, wanting to avoid a fight if possible, but if these two were too stupid to realize what they were going up against, he'd have no choice.

                "You her boyfriend or something? Don't look like lovers to me" The other man spoke up, Giga's brow furrowing on him in an instant as Fenrir sneered.

                "What's it to you, if we are or aren't..."

                "If she's your girlfriend then I'm about to fight you, if she ain't then get out of my way!" the first Hunter spat, only making Fenrir cock his head slightly to the right, Lyger now retreating to the safety of Giga's shoulder.

                "Charming". With a single heavy lunge forward, Fenrir's right fist shot forward in a strong and devastating short punch. The opposing Hunter's low ranking Volvidon armour cracking instantly on impact, winding its wearer as he doubled over into Fenrir, the crowds around them for meters now silent and still as they stared. "Now I'm going to tell you one more time, Leave".

                "You-.. You bastard-?!" The other began before Giga's outstretched arm made him freeze on the spot.

                "I wouldn't, if I were you..." Giga glared as the poised to pounce Felyne waited angrily on his shoulder, growling ferociously before hissing loudly, Lyger's fur on end as his intense dark eyes narrowed into slits.

                "Yargo- c'mon.. let's go" the second man, still locking eyes with the angry Lyger urged as Fenrir shoved Yargo off and away towards his friend.

                "A hell spawn of Alatreons won't even come to your aid should I see either of you bother this, or any girl, again... Understand!" Fenrir roared as the two vanished into the crowds. After a while of continued stares and murmurs, once Fenrir's gaze shifted over the crowds, people averted their eyes and returned to business.

                "That was su-puurrrrb Meow-ster!" Lyger chimed, jumping back upon his master's shoulders with deep purrs of affection, Giga sighing dramatically.

                "Did you have to punch him?" Giga smiled only making Fenrir shrug, "Well, at least you sorta' ended it before it began... As for you though" Giga continued as they both turned and looked at the timid woman, still standing frozen where she'd been shoved to stay, "You shouldn't be wandering, let alone left by yourself for a while... Are you here with anyone?". She shook her head, no. "Hmm, problematic... You meant to meet up with anyone?". She thought, but then slowly nodded, yes.

                "Girl you've got a mouth, use it"

                "Fenrir..."

                "You..." she said so quietly but so suddenly both men had to stop.

                "Excuse me? 'Me' what?" Fenrir asked a little more bitter than he intended.

                "I'm to meet, you..." She said almost in disbelief, staring up at him under the snow white bangs of her Barioth armour, the black mask built in to the neck of the armour used to help protect against the blizzard winds of the mountains still pulled up over her mouth and nose.

                "You've gotta' be kidding me..." Fenrir sighed as she slipped the mask down, tucking it back into the neck of the armour, Giga smirking alluringly at what he saw.

                "I'm Keida... The Grand Master's daughter..."

~

                The bard's were loud, the tavern was packed, the food was hot, the drinks were ice cold, and Fenrir was annoyed. He sat slouched in his seat, arm draped up over the back of it, tankard in the other hand and a bemused glare on his features that remained well hidden under his helmet, for now. Lyger sat proudly as a proper cat would on the table beside his master's hand and stared at the girl opposite him, Giga awkwardly sitting in the middle of the half moon booth. Keida sat with her hands in her lap, eyes fixed on the small glass of water in front of her, feeling Fenrir's eyes constantly on her.

                "So..." Giga began, finally breaking the silence, "How many hours do you need us to help tag?". A good question, one that made Fenrir's brow raise, not that anyone could see it.

                "At least five hundred" She replied quietly, eyes still fixed on the glass.

                "Are you kidding me? What for!" Fenrir barked lurching forward, both hands slamming against the wood making her jump.

                "To- be able to register for Elite Hunter training, then once I complete that, to apply to take over for my father"

                "You don't clock hours to become an Elite Hunter..." Fenrir sighed, Keida looking up at him with a confused glare creasing her features.

                "What are you talking about.. of course you-"

                "No, princess, you don't..." Fenrir repeated before sighing irritably and removed his helmet, setting it beside him on the seat. He ran his gloved hand back through his sweaty fringe and brushed it aside, loose lines falling to just meet the outer edge of his brow, "You can clock a thousand hours in the field, or more- but if you suck, you suck"

                "Fenrir--"

                "No, Giga, she needs to hear this..." Fenrir hissed as he looked to his friend, Giga sighing in defeat and scratched his cheek looking to his lap, Fenrir continuing "We will help you- I will only continue to help if you continue to show promise that you can potentially be one of us... I'm not risking my, or my best friend's life over some Guild Request- no matter who you are... If father dearest wants you to succeed so bad, he can get on the front lines and show you how to tackle a Diablos... Got me? You work, train and hunt hard then I have no reason not to help you..."

                Keida sat, stared and was silent. She nodded only once when Fenrir was done speaking before he nodded slightly himself, recognizing she understood.

                "Now that that's over- Hi! I'm Giga, this handsome little guy is Lyger, the poor unfortunate critter partnered to this asshole you've just met, Fenrir" Giga smiled from his seat gesturing around the table with his introductions, Fenrir shooting him a glare before letting out a noise of disgust as he stood.

                "I'm getting another drink..."

                "Better make it two! We've got a long day of hunting ahead!" Giga grinned as Fenrir waved mindlessly, squeezing his way to the bar as Keida sat in confused horror.

                "What? You intend to take me on my first hunt after you've been drinking?"

                "Of course?" Giga shrugged back just as confused, his tankard to his lips, "Makes the Hunt more.. Exciting" he smiled, sculling the rest of his drink. Keida shivered slightly before jumping as a team of boisterous Hunters made their way past, one bumping her on his way through, not enough to injure, purely startling her. Giga watched discretely but said nothing, his gaze pretending to be fixed elsewhere before he noticed a guildie pin a few notices to the message board outside, his interest peeking when several lesser equipped Hunters inspected the notices but turned away in annoyance; looked like their kind of game, "Hey, I'll be right back, a few new contracts just got put up, I'm gonna' check them out, Fenrir will be back in a sec okay? Just tell him where I've gone".

                "B-But--!". Before she could properly reply, he was up and out from the table, and just like that vanished amongst the people in the tavern. Lyger sat where he remained for a few minutes, but as the anxiety of the situation grew on her it became more evident in her features as she cupped the glass silently, making him rise from his spot and cross the table to sit in front of her.

                "Don't wo-rrrry, the Meow-ster will be back soon" he purred, placing his paw on her hand gently, his tail flicking happily. She tried to smile at the Felyne's attempt to comfort her, but it quickly shyed away when Fenrir's shadow crossed the table from behind her and she looked up to meet his unimpressed stare, setting four tankards down in front of one person.

                "Where's Giga..." he asked flatly setting a tankard of cider in front of her, one of a dark ale where Giga was sitting and handed a smaller tankard of warm milk and rum to Lyger as Fenrir returned his rump to his seat.

                "He's just outside... A new set of Contracts was just put out... He went to take a look..." Keida replied softly as she glanced to the tankard he put before her nervously. He watched her curiously as he sipped from his own mug, ignoring the happy lapping noises Lyger was making beside him.

                "That drink is for you... It's not poisoned..." Fenrir added with a smirk making her glare slightly.

                "I never thought it was.."

                "Then why are you looking at it like its rat poison, afraid you'll lose yourself around us if you get a little spirits into you?" he teased swirling his mug before taking another sip. That struck a nerve and it showed. Keida pushed the mug of water aside and took hold of the tankard firmly and pulled it in front of her, her eyes not once breaking from is aqua stare.

                "No, I'm not afraid. I found it stupid and immature to get drunk before going Hunting, but it looks like I've no choice but to follow your lead if I'm to get anywhere in this cesspool of a city and with the lowly ranks of a Hunter like you-" She sneered taking a deep breath and began to chug mouthful after mouthful of the tankard half her torso size. Fenrir blinked in surprise for a moment but simply watched, admitting with a growing level of impression and arousal when she continued to scull, and didn't break for air. Soon the tankard was tipped completely vertical to the roof and she stood as she slammed it down, all eyes suddenly on her as her face instantly flushed red with the alcohol and lack of air, "- But if this is the Bullshit it takes for you to accept me then fine! Another round on Fenrir!"

                The blonde said nothing as she yelled at him, he sat calmly with only the simple smirk etching his lips upward before he chuckled softly, understanding her annoyed confusion. Fenrir reached across the table and gently grabbed her wrist and pulled her to sit back down in her seat before resting his hand against the top of her head, smiling as she glared at him in embarrassment around his arm, "I think were actually gonna' get along just fine..."

                "Well, well... Leave you two alone with a little alcohol and you get kinda chummy huh? What happens if I put you in a dark room alone? Gonna' come out married?" Giga teased as he wrapped an arm around Fenrir's neck and squeezed a little, the blonde growling and elbowing him hard in the thigh, missing his target by a few inches.

                "Shut it, asshole... You're the one who left her alone"

                "Excuse you! Lyger was right here with her, I'd be offended if I were you..." Giga said folding his arms nodding in Lyger's direction, who too folded his arms and looked at Fenrir in irritation.

                "Don't you turn him against me" Fenrir glared before turning his attention to the Felyne and patted him fondly, making sure to scratch well behind the ears, "Still a good Meow-ster?"

                "Still a good Meow-ster!" Lyger agreed as he purred loudly making Fenrir smile, that smile however faded when he caught Keida also smiling from across the table and looked at her instantly.

                "What? What are you smiling at like that?". She went to speak but Giga interjected, slamming one of the notices onto the table, "And this is?"

                "Her first Contract! A one thousand Z cost fee, but look at the reward for completion!" Giga beamed, almost literally being able to see the dollar signs in his eyes.

                "Fifty Thousand!? No way... What's the catch" Fenrir glared as he instantly began to read the notice. He shook his head no and shoved it away, "No. We are not taking this contract"

                "What!? Are you kidding? It will be easy!"

                "For us maybe, but now we've got Keida"

                "Hey..." She groaned looking up from trying to read the contract, Fenrir roughly gesturing an apology but instantly turned his attention back to Giga.

                "Look I'm sorry but no... I won't risk her on a Contract like this.. We start small, the money will take care of itself, it's not like either of us are out of pocket anyway"

                "You won't risk her huh...?" Giga smirked making both Keida and Fenrir shoot crimson, both getting to their feet, screaming in unison;

                "It's not like that!"

                "You don't clock hours to become an Elite Hunter..." Fenrir sighed, Keida looking up at him with a confused glare creasing her features.

She tried to smile at the Felyne's attempt to comfort her, but it quickly shyed away when Fenrir's shadow crossed the table from behind her and she looked up to meet his unimpressed stare, setting four tankards down in front of one person.

                "Where's Giga..." he asked flatly setting a tankard of cider in front of her, one of a dark ale where Giga was sitting and handed a smaller tankard of warm milk and rum to Lyger as Fenrir returned his rump to his seat.

                "He's just outside... A new set of Contracts was just put out... He went to take a look..." Keida replied softly as she glanced to the tankard he put before her nervously. He watched her curiously as he sipped from his own mug, ignoring the happy lapping noises Lyger was making beside him.

                "That drink is for you... It's not poisoned..." Fenrir added with a smirk making her glare slightly.

                "I never thought it was.."

                "Then why are you looking at it like its rat poison, afraid you'll lose yourself around us if you get a little spirits into you?" he teased swirling his mug before taking another sip. That struck a nerve and it showed. Keida pushed the mug of water aside and took hold of the tankard firmly and pulled it in front of her, her eyes not once breaking from is aqua stare.

                "No, I'm not afraid. I found it stupid and immature to get drunk before going Hunting, but it looks like I've no choice but to follow your lead if I'm to get anywhere in this cesspool of a city and with the lowly ranks of a Hunter like you-" She sneered taking a deep breath and began to chug mouthful after mouthful of the tankard half her torso size. Fenrir blinked in surprise for a moment but simply watched, admitting with a growing level of impression and arousal when she continued to scull, and didn't break for air. Soon the tankard was tipped completely vertical to the roof and she stood as she slammed it down, all eyes suddenly on her as her face instantly flushed red with the alcohol and lack of air, "- But if this is the Bullshit it takes for you to accept me then fine! Another round on Fenrir!"

                The blonde said nothing as she yelled at him, he sat calmly with only the simple smirk etching his lips upward before he chuckled softly, understanding her annoyed confusion. Fenrir reached across the table and gently grabbed her wrist and pulled her to sit back down in her seat before resting his hand against the top of her head, smiling as she glared at him in embarrassment around his arm, "I think were actually gonna' get along just fine..."

                "Well, well... Leave you two alone with a little alcohol and you get kinda chummy huh? What happens if I put you in a dark room alone? Gonna' come out married?" Giga teased as he wrapped an arm around Fenrir's neck and squeezed a little, the blonde growling and elbowing him hard in the thigh, missing his target by a few inches.

                "Shut it, asshole... You're the one who left her alone"

                "Excuse you! Lyger was right here with her, I'd be offended if I were you..." Giga said folding his arms nodding in Lyger's direction, who too folded his arms and looked at Fenrir in irritation.

                "Don't you turn him against me" Fenrir glared before turning his attention to the Felyne and patted him fondly, making sure to scratch well behind the ears, "Still a good Meow-ster?"

                "Still a good Meow-ster!" Lyger agreed as he purred loudly making Fenrir smile, that smile however faded when he caught Keida also smiling from across the table and looked at her instantly.

                "What? What are you smiling at like that?". She went to speak but Giga interjected, slamming one of the notices onto the table, "And this is?"

                "Her first Contract! A one thousand Z cost fee, but look at the reward for completion!" Giga beamed, almost literally being able to see the dollar signs in his eyes.

                "Fifty Thousand!? No way... What's the catch" Fenrir glared as he instantly began to read the notice. He shook his head no and shoved it away, "No. We are not taking this contract"

                "What!? Are you kidding? It will be easy!"

                "For us maybe, but now we've got Keida"

                "Hey..." She groaned looking up from trying to read the contract, Fenrir roughly gesturing an apology but instantly turned his attention back to Giga.

                "Look I'm sorry but no... I won't risk her on a Contract like this.. We start small, the money will take care of itself, it's not like either of us are out of pocket anyway"

                "You won't risk her huh...?" Giga smirked making both Keida and Fenrir shoot crimson, both getting to their feet, screaming in unison;

                "It's not like that!"
