[the couple made their way into town, using a translator device Dominator carried at all times, n went searching for news of recent illegal fights]
Sylvia: Anything yet?
Dominator: Ugh, no. Most of them don't even know wat I'm talking abt (dull) I'm beginning to think that human led us on a wild goose chase
Sylvia: (think) Hmmm.
Dominator: Let's go grab a drink at the computer cafe over there, maybe we can get lucky
Sylvia: (nod)
[the couple made their way to the computer cafe, where Dominator wemt to reserve a computer seat while Sylvia ordered their drinks]
Sylvia: (had ordered the drinks and was waiting) (think)
Dominator: [got a computer n took a seat, started clicking thru the keyboard at tht same super speed like before, her hands almost couldnt be seen]
Sylvia: Hm... (turned her attention for a sec to the TV screen)
[the TV screen was playing some random reality show abt two crazy scientists trying to debunk myths]
Barista: Here's ur order, ma'am [passes the drinks to Sylvia]
Sylvia: (nod) Thanks. (takes the drinks over to Dominator)
Dominator: [was done clicking n was browsing thru]
Sylvia: Got the drinks. Find anything?
Dominator: Thanks. I managed to log into the niche web to find any mentions of illegal fights, I think I might be onto something [looks at the drinks] Wat did u get me?
Sylvia: I got the peach belinni, you got the red tornado.
Dominator: Nice [sips her drink] Mmm~ A hint of spice, my kind of drink [continues to browse]
Sylvia: (sipped her drink) Anything on my brothers?
Dominator: Not yet, still searching... [scrolls thru until she sees a thumbnail tht catches her eye] Hmm, this seems promising... [clicks on the thumbnail]
Sylvia: (looks also) ?
[the thumbnail led to a website tht has a huge header saying BATTLE ROYALE n there were a list of fighters u could click on n plc ur bets]
Dominator: Huh, says here tht there's a fight going on on this plc called Yojimbo Island where fighters frm all ovr the galaxy r dumped onto the island n fight to the death till the last one standing, n we can plc bets to see who would win this thing. So u see ur brothers in tht list, doll?
Sylvia: (looked...and pointed) There.
Dominator: [sees the name n clicked on it, revealing the page of three male zbornaks with their names nxt to their pic, their biodata, attributes, etc, n the betting price] Looks like to go there to view the fight, we hv to plc our bets n get a biometric code ticket which is... [sees the price] Wow, quite expensive tho
Sylvia: :O Damn.
Dominator: [turns to her] I'm willing to help u with this, I've got tons of money, bt I need to knw, r u willing to go all the way to save ur bros? Evn if it means u might get urself killed? Coz if they're willing to dump their fighters to kill each other, they won't hesitate to kill us for interfering
Sylvia: ... (nod) I'd do anything.
Dominator: [a short pause, then] ...Alright. Lets do this [turns to the monitor, placed her bet n paid for the biometric code ticket] Done. They'll send me the ticket tomorrow. I'm going to key in our hotel address, I saw a hotel nearby we can spend the night
Sylvia: (nod) ... (hugged Dominator)
Dominator: :) [lets her hug her as she keyed in the information] Yeah, yeah, u owe me big time, doll ;p
Sylvia: (smirk) I sure do~
Dominator: (giggle) [finished typing the information] Lets go, it was a bit of a long flight, n its night time here right now, we better hit the hay so we can avoid jetlag
Sylvia: (nod)
