"I understand, though that's a bit of an irony," she laughs. "Violence seems to follow me where'er I go."

"Really now?" Darin opens the door for Pandora and leads her inside the building. Waiting for the hostess to seat them he continues talking with her. "So if I may guess, your line of work isn't an office job is it?"

"No," Pandora laughed. "I'll give you three guesses though," she offered, figuring he'd never guess right. "And if you get it correct, you have to tell me what you do."

"Fair enough Pandora. Let's see..are you a cop or in some sort of law enforcement field?"

Pandora pondered, tapping her cheek. Naw, only when I'm lucky am I doing the law a favor. "Nope," she remarked.

Darin chuckles to himself at the thought that had crossed his mind, but he said it outloud to her anyway. "Don't tell me you're some type of sexy female assassin? Couldn't be, that kind of thing only happens in the movies."

Pandora blinks in surprise, for a moment going icy cold before she realized it had just been a lucky guess. "Well, not only in the movies it would appear. Now you have to tell me what you do."

"Whoa are you kidding?" Darin was more surprised that his guess was right than the fact that she was an assassin. "Well fair is fair. I'd like to think of myself as a private investigator, but sometimes I cross the line to mercenary for hire."
Darin smirks and shakes his head. "What are the odds of that huh? A merc meeting an assassin."

"Personally," she mused, "I don't see the difference between the two of us. We both take money to kill people. It's just that I employ... pre-emptive strikes."

"True enough. How about a topic that doesn't involve our occupations?"

"Very well, where do you suggest I go next?" Pandora inquired as she looked at the food selection, eventually settling on a couple hotdogs.

"Well you've had a taste of American food. What else do you want to do while you're here?" Darin asks, while finally deciding on a steak.

"See the sights, make some friends, plan where to go next if I want to go anywhere else," she remarked mildly, leaning back in her booth. "I like America a lot, though your immigration laws are a bitch. Though, I can't blame you; if Egypt were the last standing testimony to the Pre-War Age, we'd hoard our resources as well. Set knows we guard the Nile like a river of molten gold."

"Immigration laws have always been a bitch here. Eygpt doesn't sound like it is that bad off anyway." Darin shuffles in his pocket and pulls out a cigarette and a lighter, "Set? So you're a religious woman are you?"

"You could say that," she said diffidently. "I'd certainly rather have a god in my corner than not. Set seems to be right up my ally. What about you?"
