The Last Avenger and The World of Omni: Raincheck

[Mami Tomoe]

Mami liked what she heard. Sasuke would help her on her with finding Harry! Two pairs of eyes were always better than one, and Mami liked how Sasuke handled himself, so he would probably be a good partner in this strange place. Maybe she wouldn't have much trouble making her way around here after all. However, three pairs of eyes would be still better than two - Perhaps the green-haired man would join her as well? But how would she handle fighting, searching, and generally functioning as a group? She wasn't used to it, as she was almost always fighting alone. And fighting alone, only having one back to watch over, was always easier - Having to look over your shoulder and make sure your allies are unharmed was no doubt a worrying prospect. But Mami didn't want to worry about that now, as it had been long since she had any sort of long-term company. Perhaps she would be able to have them properly sometime, ideally without interruption from serpents.

Mami suddenly realized her face was bloody - Well, not only her face, but dots of blood here and there (And everywhere) on her outfit were noticeable. Since Mami wasn't used to fighting enemies that bled, this was more than a bit unnerving. Instinctively she looked around for something to clean her face with, so at the very least she would look presentable, though as she found nothing she deemed it unnecessary - The only people nearby would understand. Then again, there was the Fountain. Mami took her hat off, splashed some water onto her face and wiped off the blood. With a glance of her reflection in the water, she noticed there was still a little circle of the crimson liquid on her cheek, which she tried not to think about while putting on her hat as she stood up, feeling queasier than she had earlier.

She was greeted not only by Sasuke and the green man's backs, but by a number of (Possibly) men in armor of white, splattered in what she had just cleaned off. While Mami wasn't one to speak of impracticality in combat - She herself liked to be flashy in fighting style and elegant in dress, she knew wearing white to battle was incredibly silly, and it showed. Unfortunately, Mami was a little distracted by the fact that they were splattered in a snake's blood, and put a fist to her mouth, as if she were holding a barf bag to her mouth. Now, tell me son, why is it you are looking for a high profile, wanted criminal? That question echoed in her mind as it was spoken.

This in itself seemed a peculiar question. While she and Sasuke clearly did not look the most qualified for such things, they both were hunting someone down. As she opened her mouth to speak, she saw Sasuke shift to what she concluded was a fighting stance. Such things were alien to Mami, as in battle she was almost always moving. She was then going to try talking Sasuke out of fighting when she was interrupted by “Now, now. No need for all of that". Mami thanked her lucky stars and allowed the situation to continue silently.

The man spoke of some sort of Empire, led by an Emperor Palpatine. That name rung a bell, but it seemed very much like an overseas name from many years past. This seemed like some sort of armed-to-the-teeth housewarming party, substitute house for Fountain, which Mami found a bit concerning. He explained things that Omni had explained to her when she first arrived - Maybe it was assumed that she was a newcomer here. While she was, she already knew what this place was (Sort of). But then Mami realized something. Maybe this was necessary because Omni didn't contact everyone, and instead only contacted a select few, and that was where this information came from. Maybe Primes were summoned here frequently with no instruction of what this place was, and groups such as these were necessary to educate them.

In other words, maybe Mami was special, as she was told they (Collectively) were. She considered it a possibility, but a very unlikely one, and continued listening. But then it was confirmed she was important, though likely in a very different way. The ability to use Omnilium apparently did that.

Mami's heart nearly skipped a beat as they mentioned the possibility to assist in her bounty-hunting endeavours, though the mannerisms and ways of speaking this man employed seemed... Fishy, for lack of a better word. Something was off - Like it was rehearsed, or he was made of plastic. While he certainly wasn't forcing any of the three, he seemed to be trying to tempt them with short-term desires, which Mami disapproved of. However, something seemed to scream 'necessary' about following him... Especially since she got the feeling her new allies would likely be going as well. And while Mami was rarely the girl who went with the grain, she wanted to avoid loneliness again above all else, at least for the moment.

"While I don't think taking detours will get us any closer to finding who we're looking for," she responded, "It would be rude to turn down such a polite offer, wouldn't it?" Mami offered her best smile while attempting to hide the fact that the blood on their armor made her feel nauseated. "My name is Mami Tomoe. It's wonderful to meet you, Mr. Hammond, and I extend the same to those under your command," she chimed. Though something interested the girl, someone, more specifically: Someone who certainly hadn't made themselves hidden, who seemed to have approached Sasuke. Hopefully Sasuke knew this boy, who called himself Obito - She wondered if she would perhaps encounter someone she knew in the Omniverse as well if given some time... Though what were the odds?

Longer post than usual! Ohmuhgahd!
