And we're here

Matsuo and Nia would finally arrive at Slade's. After their fight He would carry her From the downtown area back to the house.

And here we are. Slade should be inside

He said as he sat her down.

Even when Matsuo put her down, she would simply cling onto one of his arms and press herself against him. She still held her neutral, almost bored look as they would go inside. She had a feeling she would be seeing that house a lot more in the future too.

As he turned to walk away he would feel the young girl hold on to his arm. He would sigh before he spoke to her

The person you want to speak to lives here. Just go in and talk to him.

"This house is big. Take me to him." Nia responded bluntly, silghtly tightening her grip on Matsuo. To make matters worse, she would invoke a kawaii women's most dangerous technique; The puppy dog eyes jutsu. Although, Nia didn't pout and simply looked up into Matsuo's eyes with the same look she always had on her face. The difference was the moonlike size and shine of her eyes. The fail safe jutsu whenever women needed to get what they wanted and it had a 99% success rate, the 1% fail rate being too serious of a situation and/or using it on a villain.

Matsuo would growl as he felt his annoyance grow, but it would gradually shift to a groan of acceptance as he saw the overly adorable look in her eyes.

Alright, alright! Just let go of my arm.

As he spoke he would begin moving towards the door while rambling through his pocket for his keys.

I knew this was going to be annoying..

He mumbled under his breath before finding his keys to go inside.

Slade would be in the basement working on some prototype robots he had been drawing up for a while.

Even with these modifications I still need an adequate power source to make them run.

A bit disgruntled he would head back upstairs with the blueprints on hand. As he made it upstairs he would make it to the kitchen as they made it inside.

Welcome back Matsuo. Is that your girlfriend? It's not often you bring a girl home.

Slade would say jokingly. But it was rare for Matsuo to bring anybody home with him.

"He's my husband." Nia stated matter of factly to Slade as she nuzzled into Matsuo's side. "And I need money." She called while holding up the mission flier with one hand. Her other hand was laced in Matsuo's own.

A look of shock would plaster Matsuo's face. He would swiftly yank his arm from Nia's grasp as he looked at her with a horrified look on his face.

Who are you to decide this yourself?

Slade would begin laughing hysterically. Sleeping his hand on the table. As he called down he would try to calmly speak to the young lady.

Ah, so you took the mission I posted. I believe that's 600g.

Slade would pull a small pouch out and counted the coins in it before handing it over to her.

Nia would not care about Matsuo's reaction and would simply walk over to Slade and accept the money. She would bow respectfully, acknowledging his power. He must have been one of the Kage's she had learned about with her mother. "Thank you very much." After counting out the money, she would turn without a word to either and leave.
