Outside the building where Flora was being kept, a lone figure paced a bit, the heavy exoframe he wore emitting a low, pneumatic hiss with each step. After a few minutes of pacing, he finally sighed, shaking his head and leaning back against a column.
"Of course. Hire me to bodyguard some little starlet princess, and then they don't even let me in the fucking door. Tch. Typical."
He muttered to himself, shutting his eyes for a moment. Just as he began to relax, a soft ping alerted him to an incoming call. Flicking a cover on his left wrist open, he pressed a few buttons, and a youthful face popped up in the upper-right corner of his display visor.
"Hey, Kintoki. How's the new suit working?"
He chuckled at the female's question a bit, rolling his shoulder as he flicked a glance at a set of small diagnostics.
"Raiko, for the dozenth time, it's working fine. You know I'd contact you if something was wrong."
He said coolly, closing one eye for a moment. The girl on the other end of the line nodded a bit, adjusting her glasses as they slipped down her nose. Collecting herself, she gave Kintoki a small nod, disconnecting with a little salute. Kintoki returned the gesture, then leaned his head back against the column again.
And now...we wait He thought to himself...
