"Ah, I see. Then out we go." he said, opening the door.
"Oh, and the reason she went red is uh...Well...It's a reaction, to an emotion universally shared through all of us." he said, holding the door open for her.
"That emotion is called love. To have affection for someone, greater than that of sibling, in most cases." he added to his previous statement.
He then nodded to her statement of the gun store.
"I believe it isn't that far from here, so that will be our first stop."

Amnity walked out of the door absently, snapping the revolving cylinder in her revolver back into place. "Love, I've read about that numerous times in some of the books I've read." She was glad she could relate it to something. "I haven't read up on it much though. But I don't see how it's possibly stronger then it's greater than a sibling relationship."
She lead Zahzi to the gun store. He might have seen it some times before, but it was a bit...Exclusive. The soldier entered, inhaling the beautiful smell of gunpowder and metal.
The man in the counter was big and rather burly. If possible, it actually looked bigger then Zudah or Ventra. He gave Amnity a curious look. Not many women enter the store just to shop around...There was only one female he knows that comes to the store...."Amnity?..."
Amnity looked at him with a shocked expression. Then she smiled and extended her arms. "Aww, is it really that obvious? You know I worked hard for the disguise Porter..."
The man named Porter smiled broadly. He got up from behind the counter and shook her hand. "Amnity! I miss ya little lass! How's life been treating you? What do you need."
The soldier frowned, then took out her broken revolver and showed him. "My baby broke..."

Zahzi just stood inside the store, leaning against the wall near the entrence.
He looked around at the store, with an eyebrow raised.
"Now I'm sure this is what Amnity's mind would look like..." he said with a sigh.

Luckily, Amnity didn't hear him. Porter told her that he would fix it right away and sent it as quickly as possible back to her. "But I need you to look over a few things Am, alright? It's been torture trying to find another employee that could replace you." He came back into the room with an AK-74U assault rifle and handed it to the soldier.
Amnity looked it over, then her eyes suddenly lit with fire. "Hmm...And AK-74U...Very nice...5.45×39 mm caliber, an accurate and deadly weapon from short to long ranges, up to around 500 m. It has a curved magazine like the AK-47 and a magazine capacity of 30 rounds which can be fired in full-auto, and semi-auto modes. Gas operated, rotating bolts..." The knowledge of artillery was, like she said before, automatic, and she new everything she was talking about. "Wow, you even have a folding stock fitted with a red-dot scope, very effective. What you have here is a powerful Gun Porter." She smiled and handed it back to him. He offered her her job back, but she refused. "I have to go on a mission today Port, very important."
She walked back to the door and waved at Zahzi. "Sorry about that. Shall we go now?"

A shiver ran down his spine, watching her look at the rifle with psychotic affection...
"No, no...No problem...At...All..." he said, an anime-bead of sweat running down the back of his head.
He opened the door for her, and held his hand out, pointing it outside, letting her walk out first.

Amnity holstered her other revolver as she walked out of the store. She was curious to why he opened the door for her though, she was more then capable of opening it herself. Before she could ask, something across the street caught her eye. An ice cream truck. "Zahzi....Why are little children gathering around that vehicle?" She asked, pointing at the man and the group of kids gathering around to buy ice cream. "Are they rioting?"

He looked over at the truck. And shook his head.
"That's a truck, that gives frozen treats for money. A common favorite for kids." he said with a grin.
He then laughed to himself.
"This is going to be an interesting day..." he mumbled to himself.

Amnity looked at the truck...Then to Zahzi....Then to the truck...Then back to Zahzi. "...I want one. Is that alright? Or do they only sell to children?'

"Oh, it's quite alright." he said with a smile.
He walked up to the truck, and began to talk to the owner of the truck. He placed a few dollars on the trucks counter, and the owner took it. In exchange, he handed Zahzi two medium-sized cups filled with what probabally looked to Amnity like some strange white liquid.
He walked back over to her, and handed one to her.
"Don't eat it too fast...Even if you don't feel pain, you'll feel like shooting yourself in the head..."

Amnity looked at the cup of 'ice cream' Zahzi gave her, a bit hesitant to eat it really. She took the spoon and scooped just a small bit of it. "Looks....Toxic..." She shrugged and went on ahead and ate it. There was silence...She blinked a few times, then took another spoonful and ate it. "This is...Cold...But it tastes delicious." Amnity smiled, then began walking down the street. Something about just walking outside in the daylight without fearing anyone would catch or notice her made her feel...More free. She didn't feel the pressure of having to watch her back encase someone was following, and she didn't really feel like she was obligated to go outside.

Zahzi walked behind Amnity, looking around, when he saw the news crew.
They were searching for 'Lightning Man' and a women they called 'The Human Weapon'.
He let out a sigh, and looked over at Amnity.
"Well, their persistant, arn't they?"

Amnity watched the news crew as they began interviewing people in the streets, asking them if they had seen or heard of the huge battle that happened in the city last night. She just stood there...Watching...Eating ice cream..."Well..I think it's got to stop." Boldly, she walked to the news reporter and asked if she could give her take on the whole ordeal.
With the 'ice cream' in one hand and the microphone on the other, she looked rather casual even with the 3 cameras pointed directly at her. "I personally think that these so called 'super heroes' aren't real. It's just a ruse that the children of the city are playing. If I have...Ow.." Amnity gripped her head. She ate the ice cream too quickly and is now suffering the consequences. "OW!!...Mother f***er..." She walked away, wanting to shoot herself in the head.

Zahzi did his best not to laugh, before the cameras set their views on him.
He suddenly stopped, and looked at them.
"Uhhhh...Well...I think it was just some publicity stunt...Or some action scene in some movie..." he said, before slowly following after Amnity.

"GOD DAMNIT IT HURTS!!!" Amnity screamed as she stumbled a bit. Finally, the pain began to ease away. She rubbed her temples and groaned. "Mmm...The ice cream is very tasty....But I would have liked it better without the pain..." The soldier opened her eyes and sighed, then looked to Zahzi. "What do we do now? This is your mission after all. What are you going to teach me teacher?"

"Well, you choose where to go, Amnity. I want you to look around, and find things that seem odd to you." he said, with a grin.
"And I told you about not eating the ice cream too fast, didn't I..?"
