 The Bounty Hunter Time to work again " "Power: 32'124 || Current Power: 10"Heavy Metal Katana, Dual Pistols and Weights.Rose enters her average Hunter’s Office. Today, she was planning on taking at least three missions. Her expression was more between averages to a poker face. She made sure that her weights were on and her power was suppressed. The attire she was currently wearing was completely different than her normal gears. First of off, her hair was neatly tidy and curvy. She was in a black sleeveless turtle neck shirt and straight yet baggy jet black pants. Her clothes had a rose like scent emulating from them however her skin had a vanilla scent difference. Surely her weapons were resting on her thick dark brown belt. Her pistols were in their holster facing each other above her rear and her Black Heavy Metal Katana rests diagonally below them. She steps forward as her eyes scan the large room. Around were a lot of aliens from all different species. The room's layout was like a large bar. It was filled however. There were bartenders, different tables to fit their needs and different areas. If they wanted to play a game, they had the square table and the game area. If they wanted to drink and talk, they had the round table and the bar area. Beside the bar was the bounty board whereas you could have collected jobs. West from the board was the payout and registration area for hunters. Strangely enough, today everyone inside the bar were getting along with each other. Playing games like Poker, drinking alcoholic drinks and even sharing stories about their hunts. This was rather new to Rose. This might have been the first time she had seen something like that. Of course the area the area was still filled with noises such as moans, groans, hissing and talking of all volume. The mix odor in the air was enough to upside her stomach. The scent of alcohol, sweat, death, even intercourse lingers in the air around.
Her eyes quickly lock onto the bounty board. She was trying her best to ignore the scent and sounds. She proceeds to bury her hands into her pant pockets. She slowly drifts mindlessly to the board. Today she was planning to accept at least three or four jobs. Two or three which could be easy and the other which would more or less will take a day or two. Once she arrives to the board, she crossed her arms. She scans the board from top to bottom. She was looking for the set with a lot of bodyguards but low power. She had standards too so of course they had to have a decent bounty upon their heads and has to be ‘Wanted dead or alive’. She wanted such a mission since she didn’t want to spend all day looking for one person.
“Jesus...If they’re not too strong, they don’t have much bounty…”
So far, all the bounty she was spotting had too much power than she can handle or was overall too low of a reward. If this was the case, she might just accept all the low reward ‘dead/alive’ bounties and hunt them. It might be a little better than just staying her training or doing nothing. She might be able to obtain a good sum after adding all the rewards today into one big total, “I guess I’ll do that…Better than nothing at all. Beside I’ve been away from work too long now...”, she mutters slowly to herself. Even though she was reading from the board, her guard was still up and she was still scouting around the area with her Ki Sense just in case.

Every now and again, Pin liked to visit his old haunts. Ever since installing the White List's office directly onto his ship, he didn't have much reason to visit public bounty boards. The list received jobs directly, and Pin would delegate that work accordingly. Still, he knew he'd need to be active in recruiting, and so he needed to see what sort of blood was available.
Today, there hadn't been much of any real hunters. A couple of greenhorns who wouldn't make it a month, a couple of grizzled washouts who never had the ambition to take any risky jobs, and some chick who smelled of flowers and vanilla. He was getting ready to settle his tab, but decided to watch the flower-and-vanilla scented woman just a minute longer. She was carefully considering the jobs on the board, but not out of a sense of caution. She was guarded, to be sure, but she wasn't ignoring the jobs that might really require getting one's hands dirty.
"All those jobs are shit, girl," he called out, leaning back in his chair. "Low profile work won't get you anywhere in this life, and all these gutless lapdogs have to offer is gutter jobs. Bail bondsman's work at best. You want some interesting work?"

 The Bounty Hunter 'Excuse me?' "Power: 32'124 || Current Power: 10"Heavy Metal Katana, Dual Pistols and Weights.
Rose normally ignores the hissing from others around her. Surely she was annoyed by the male creatures calling out to her. She steps back a bit and sighs. Within her hearing range was a fellow commenting on the jobs. To be honest, if she could have taken a few better ones, she would have. At this point, she had no other choice but to take what she was given or have available to her at the time. She remains silent though she was listening to him. Her eyes shut as she basically moves her left leg back to tilt her body towards him and the board. She turns her head towards with a small tilt to the back. Her pink ponytail slightly bounced about on her shoulders during the turn of her head. Even though she was facing him, her eyes were still close. Just by her body and looks, she seems nothing like a hunter. She lacks scars, she lacks the blood strain on her hands even if she had only killed a few before and her face lacks the sinful body language. The only things that looked out of place on her were her guns and Katana. Though they look out of place, they also match her appearance quite well. She sighs again afore crossing her arms lightly. The eye where her hair was absent opens half way as she stares down the fellow lazily.
What he was telling her caught her attention! This was surely a rare event. Even the other bounty hunters that know of Rose were surprised. She barely communicates or listens to the other hunters. To see that she was listening to this fellow amazed them while at the same time, they were jealous of him. The few that were jealous stares them down silently while they talk. She raised an eyebrow right after he was finished speaking. Her bright blue eyes narrow down on him as her body slowly tense. She blows gently afore parting her lips slowly then responds with, “What kind of interesting work do you have to offer? Better not be some low level mafia or something like that else I’ll have to shoot you.”. Her attribute was on a thin line. What she was displaying now was her serious yet feisty personality. She didn’t believe him! She had learned a lot her time here on Vegeta. She had learned not to listen to others whenever they’re offering something sudden. They always want something back in return and that something could be dangerous for her health or illegal. She slightly tilts her head back some more while her eyes stare him down. She was only waiting on him to answer her remarks; his answer will decide if she will call the guards or listening more.

"I ain't offering anything - not yet at least. I need to know you're up to snuff."
Pin leaned back in his seat and put his feet up on the table at which he was sat. A few of the patrons around him grimaced. He, like Rose, didn't appear to be much of a veteran. Most well-worked hunters had scuffs on their armor, scars on their skin, and rather piecemeal equipment. Pin's armor, like his gloves, boots, and helmet, was clean and white. It was glossy and well polished. His helmet's visor - oddly shaped as it was - was free of scratches. His pistol, hanging at his side, was clearly a custom piece.
"See, you don't look like the rest of these dregs. Don't smell like them either. But your power...it doesn't read as anything particularly special. I gotta know if you're all looks and perfumes, or if you actually know what you're doing with those fancy weapons of yours. Once I know you're up to it, I may have a particularly juicy offer for you."

 The Bounty Hunter "You shouldn't judge a book by its cover" "Power: 32'124 || Current Power: 10"
Heavy Metal Katana, Dual Pistols and Weights
Rose casually shrugs her shoulders lightly. She moves one of her arms towards him to reveal her full black wrist bands, “Weights, I have a pair on my legs as well. This helps with compressing my power along with my Ki control technique.”. Basically she was saying that she was effectively restricting her own power level at the moment. To be honest, her power level itself is a bit unstable to her. It will increase or it will decrease whenever. She lacks the basic knowledge about power scaling and power levels. To her, it was all just skill and emotions every time she’s fighting. Whenever she snaps in a calm rage fashion, her power leaps immensely and she’ll obtain a huge white aura. This was only one example of her power level increasing through emotions. Her arms unwrap and descent to her sides sluggishly as they sway gently. After such an action, she settles them upon her hips with her knuckles pressing against her tendering. She parts her lips as she proceeds to add on to her previous statement, “My weapons are built to support my needs and fighting style. They’re not just ‘fancy’ looking.”, she said in a rather calm tone. In the meantime she was explaining such a thing to him, she moves her right arm back slowly. She reaches for the hilt of her Katana as her fingers coils around it. How she was holding it was more an assassin style. Her pinkie finger was the one facing the guard while her thumb was facing the tip of the hilt. Within seconds, she proceeds to unsheathe the blade unhurriedly. This was just to make sure that she means no harm as yet though also to display her blade’s appearance for him. The blade of the Katana was completely midnight black. It was also a little thick comparing to a normal Katana. The visual density was enough to prove that the entire weapon was much heavier than it should be. The length of the blade and hilt seems to be a bit longer than the average but only by a few centimeters. This was only to ensure the reach of the blade and that her hands had enough space to hold sections of the hilt to execute swordsmanship techniques. She removes the whole blade to show him how it was. As far as it seems, she was handling it with ease. It was like she was holding a paper blade. Not even a single vein was insight. Whenever she was finished explaining, she twirls the blade using her fingers. The speed she was swirling it at had the resembling of a fan spinning at gear three. This performance was not to display her skills as a swordswoman but for him to examine the blade and the type of weapons she had in her arsenal. She halts the blade using her index finger to reduce the speed of its spin but she ensures that the tip was pointing towards the floor after it had stopped. Her arm was pointing straight forward with the blade in hand.
Rose tilts her head slightly to the left then loosens her grip fairly slow. As soon as the blade was free from her grasp, the weapon plummets to the ground as if gravity had only increased greatly for it alone. This effect was mainly because of the material and metals that was used to create the weapon. The different metals and materials added more endurance to the blade however add even more weight to it. Upon reaching the ground, it easily sliced a hole and digs further down until half of it was underground. The cracks around the hole were made from the impact of the weapon. This only proves that the weapon was surely heavier than it appears to be. Someone at her current power she as displaying certainly would not have been able to lift this blade. Not even wield it as how well she had performed for him today. This certified that Rose’s power level was absolutely not what it had seemed to be. She hopes that this was enough to answer his question about her power level. Rose twists her body as her legs follows behind until she was facing him completely. Now that he was able to see how she looks from the face, she crossed her arms slowly. She wished to see what other complains he had about her weapon and power. She sighs softly as the eye that she had closed slowly opens with the other. With this, she stares him down with both her eyes while one of her eye-brow rises. “You may continue and explain if you’re satisfied enough, I wouldn’t worry too much about my power, no? As long as I can hold my own and get the job down. Sure I have been slacking a bit for a while but such thing doesn’t matter at all. Now, tell me the offer so I can decide if I’ll take it or leave it be.”. She said in a slight commanding tone. Of course she didn’t want him to waste her time on this since she has better things she could be doing. One thing she knows is that time cannot be restored and will not stop for no one at all. Make use of what little time you have. This was a strange principle but it does make a much sense. Her eyes shift towards her blade. Breaking her crossed arm, she stretches her hand down. This was to grab a hold of her blade’s hilt. She rather not has her blade out this long without using it at all. She wraps her fingers around the blade the same way she did when she was able to unsheathe it. She effortlessly pulls the weapon out of the ground. She flicks her wrist allowing the blade to swirl in a clockwise style. The second the blade tip was pointing towards the roof, she stopped it right away. Now her thumb was resting under the blade’s guard and pinkie was facing the end of the hilt. She flashed it via a sharp and fast swing. This was to remove as much dirty and so on off the blade. Once that she done, she slants her body a bit so that she was able to return the Katana to its sheath. She did all of this while waiting on him to respond to her.

Pin clapped his hands lazily at her display. Sure, the weights on her wrists and the unique design of that sword belied her greater than average strength, but he wasn't in love with the theatrics. Then again, he was the one wearing a cape, with glossy white armor, and an art-deco custom pistol at his side. He couldn't begrudge her theatrics without first declaring himself a hypocrite. He decided to let her flourish slide.
"What is it with fucking hunters," he said, "That makes so many of us act like fucking big shots. I swear, more recruits have tried to tell me what's what than not, it's really getting tiresome."
He shook his head and stood from his chair.
"Listen, I don't know you, don't know your name or your rep. Still, you stand out from the crowd and I can appreciate that. So I'm gonna go out on a limb for you on this one. I run an organization of hunters and mercenaries. We take high profile jobs from private and important clients. I'm looking to add to our ranks, and you might just fit the bill. Sound like something you'd be interested in?"

 The Bounty Hunter "Deal I suppose" "Power: 32'124 || Current Power: 10"
Heavy Metal Katana, Dual Pistols and Weights.
Rose raises an eyebrow at his remarks. She never asked him for his opinion at all. She actually had all right to ignore him at this point. He asked her about her power, she displayed that she was hiding and prove that her weights and ki compressing was her current power level. Basically telling him not to judge a book by its cover. At this point, she was losing a lot of interest. She turns her body as she was going to face the bounty board once more. “This might be the last time I’m listening to a random ass stranger.”, she thought calmly to herself. As she was about to block him out, he said something that catches her attention again. Her head turns to him rather slowly afore narrowing down her eyes upon him. She listens to every word he said about his organization. She wouldn't mind joining such since she won’t have to visit this corrupted place again. Certainly she was tired of all the hissing and gossips whenever she enters the location. Her only real problem with this entire thing was that she was about to give up her freedom. She likes working on her own or any other Human. She can stop or work whenever she feels like. She hates others ordering her around and also hates mercenary type of jobs. Though a bounty hunter and a mercenary are quite similar EXCEPT the additional work a mercenary has to endure. She believed that they were surely different from each other. Her hands found their way into her pockets while she gave him her attention once more.
“You don’t know me yet you’re willing to hire me to your group? You could have at least asked for my name but whatever. I’ll accept your offer however I will not take part in any mercenary work whatsoever unless certain circumstances takes places that I’m force or have to take such a job. I’ll settle with only the bounty hunter department.”
She had her own standards as well! She will only accept a mercenary job depending on who wants to hire her and the true cause of the job. She wasn’t planning on assisting tyrants like changeling or Saiyans who often own or wipe out a planet and so on without a rather good reason. She didn’t even know who would for generally hire this group for their assistance. She hopes the hunter missions they had at their base weren’t the same as the sets here. She wanted a few missions whereas she needed to push herself hard enough. She wanted an additional drive to keep her to push herself beyond her current limit. With a sigh, she turns facing him then slowly steps towards him. By the time she arrives to the halfway point, she came to a sudden stop. Her hands emerge from her pockets as she crossed her arms. She tilts her head a little then gently wipes her hair away from her eyes. She was staring him down though throughout the entire conversation, her expression was the same with only eyebrow movements!
“Is there anything I need to do before becoming a member?”

"To be honest, unless you're on the List I couldn't care less what your name is. Until then, you're just another street-level goon scraping by on the leavings of civilized society."
When she agreed to join, but laid out her conditions, Pin nodded. He'd seen this coming - almost everyone he'd recruited had shown him some kind of attitude or given him some sort of conditions of employment. Only Zerori and Kay-El had been truly agreeable. Still, he couldn't blame her. Pin himself could be picky about the jobs he took. It was important to remember that the White List wasn't really a place of employment, but more like a prestigious hunting lodge. Each member needed to retain some autonomy otherwise it would never work.
"You'll never be obligated to take work you don't want, and you're not tied down to solely taking work from the List. When we get a job, I'll farm it out to you and the other members. Whoever wants it, claims it. Simple as that. The only time I'll require your assistance is if the List itself is in danger, but I doubt that's going to happen."
He approached her, and held out his hand to shake hers.
"Welcome aboard, Hawk. You'll need to pick up a white scarf or cape or some kind of article of clothing to wear when you're representing the list. You'll need to dye it when you represent your clients to match their individual colors if they have any. Other than that, you're cool to me you. Oh, and what's your name again?"

 The Bounty Hunter "Uh huh...Sure I suppose.." " Power: 32'124 || Current Power: 10" Heavy Metal Katana, Dual Pistols and Weights.
She listened to his second statement then nods slowly. She could accept to that one. That sounds fairly good to her. She thought it was going to be something like forcing a job on her of some sort. That or even like the bounty boards they use here. She could have actually worked with his little system. This means she can pick and refuse the type of jobs she wants. She’ll have time to train and perform her personal actions. She can avoid who she wants to avoid and even help who she likes to if the job is open to them. This was quite great for personal issues. After a long pause and thinking, Rose finally smiles. It took her a while but she had a small smirk on her face. While he was walking towards her, she slowly moves towards him to accept his little handshake. She assumes this was how they handle their contracts. “I’m assuming the other members are quite powerful as well. This should be rather interesting then.”. Speaking about other members, she just remembered Natto’s offer about his squad with him and the other few saiyans. Her dislikes for the saiyan’s mindset was still there so she surely would have denied it anyway.
“My name is Rose and I’ll take the scarf. A long one too. I’ll be able to wear it how I want to right?”
Without a doubt, Rose had plans with that Scarf. Since she’ll be wearing so many scarves at once, she might need to change her appearance and armor a bit to match her new outfit. She may be a hunter but she wanted her suit to fit her fighting style and not hold her back too much. She wasn’t going to replace her current scarf even if she wasn’t wearing it at the moment. It and her other uniform needed to be clean hence why she was in this attire. Her red scarf is relatively dear to her and her memories. It was her way of saying her family is watching over her while she works.
“If there anything else I need to know though?”

Pin ignored Rose's rising power and her apparent irritation. He'd made his offer, and simply waited for a response.
"Good to hear. Welcome aboard, Hawk Rose. Yes, you can wear the scarf however you like. It's more of a symbol than a uniform."
Pin looked to the door, getting ready to head out.
"Nothing else, really. Just don't make us look bad if you take side jobs. I keep my ship docked in the Radditsu district if you need to visit, and I'll drop you a line on the scouter network if I need you. Until then, stay frosty."
With that, he walked out without waiting for any further response.

 The Bounty Hunter "I guess I'm a White list now." "Power: 32'124 || Current Power: 10"
Heavy Metal Katana, Dual Pistols and Weights.
Rose nods at him though she gave him her number just in case. This was quite an odd day for her. Her eyes stick to him as he left the scene. Within moments after he was gone, she sighs out softly. She lacks the scouter device but she had a phone. Hopefully that makes up for it. Now that she was a new member of a bounty hunting organization. She wasn’t too sure how she was going to feel about that. She didn’t even know if she could have told her family back on earth about this. It was bad enough they didn't know about what she has been doing on Vegeta. This was rather troublesome. Around her family, she might need to make up a lie and tries her best to hide what she has become from them. This was only the least of her problems. Her head turns slowly towards the Bounty board as her eyes locks onto it. She still needed a few missions so that she could at least buy food for a few weeks. Rose turns her body along with her head shortly afore staring down the board.
“Mm...This is only one step closer now isn’t it dad...I’ll match your power sooner or later...~”
Even though her new boss had left the scene, she still had a few missions she needed to pick up. Since she was more or less expecting a few from him later on, she plans on taking as much simple and quick missions as possible just in case. She didn’t want to be busy whenever he offers the group a mission. Her hand sweeps the board as she removes up to three sheets of paper. All three were jobs base on killing. All she had to really do was kill them off and return their head. The power levels shown on their bounties were not as high as her average jobs. It also gave her their common locations meaning this wouldn’t be much of a cat and dog chase. The only thing she was expecting from them was a little bit of resistance against her assaults. Her mind was still wondering on this recent event between her and her new boss.
Rose couldn't help it but she smile. She knows all the headaches she’ll be facing whenever she’s around him. This means it might be a good enough time for her to learn how to control her anger and pride a bit just in case. She doesn’t want to wild out on her new comrades whenever they annoy her after all. She steps off shortly after and proceeds to the bounty registration desk. Might as well she finish those jobs and take the rest of the day off.
