Lions in Paradise

"War is everywhere, right now I imagine your heart and kindeys are at war with all of the fat and alchohol that you have put into your body. Just because you are having fun in a tavern doesn't mean the world is at peace." Brak said to the fat man with a slight scowl on his face. He didn't like being blunt with people, but he had had his share of rude tavern patrons. He hoped that a little intimidation would shut the loaf up so that he could continue on with his day and leave Estrella and himself alone. 

 Brak wasn't to keen on the whole bar scene here, he knew that places like these often spawned needless conflict between strangers. He hoped that Divina would be satisfied with the winde that she had found and they could go on about their own business, but knowing her, this simple mission would be far from over.

Ooc: (Annie? LOL )

"Just get me the wine please." She ordered the tavern keeper who no longer asked questions.

She took a double take at Brak's response. She had not expected the serious soldier to get annoyed by the comment that the overweight man made. After she heard Brak's remark to the man, she laughed. Her hands covered her mouth as if she were a teenage girl again. The fact that she giggled out loud caused the big man to get offended. He was probably not used to being dissed in his tavern.

"What did you say to me military bitch?" The bearded man slammed his beer mug on the table. The other men stopped laughing because the situation had gotten out of hand.

"You think this is funny wench?" He was not in a good mood anymore.

Upon hearing the man's insult, she would have snapped and attacked him, but Brak's reaction made her calm.

"Yes, I do. I am laughing at how pathetic your comebacks are." The bartender left the scene to get fetch the wine. In the meantime, her attention was

 Brak was tempted to vaporize the fat man where he stood, but he held back to try to avoid any more trouble. He put his armored hand on Estrella's shoulder and attempted to move the way she was facing away from the crowd. He then did something charismatic of himself.

 "Barkeep, get a round to everyone here on the house on me." Brak said and put a large chunk of money onto the counter. Brak rarely had time to spend his money anyways, and if he could diffuse the situation a little he would. He regretted attacking the fat man with his words earlier, he let a rare emotion of anger slip out and it might have started up some trouble for himself and Estrella.

Estrella turned to Brak when his hand rested on her shoulder to calm her since the bearded man was not part of their mission. She exhaled profoundly and let it slide. The bearded man was not through with them yet though. Once she turned to ignore the bearded man and waited for the wine, he rose to his feet. His eyes were set on the new duo who thought they were welcomed.

They were indeed welcomed especially after Brak's bold ove. Brak tried his best to defuse the situation. He ordered drinks for the entire tavern.

"Are you sure you'll be able to afford that Brak?" She smirked at his attempt to keep everyone at peace. His move of ordering drinks for all was a smart move. There was not one person who could resist a paid drink except for maybe one.

The entire tavern, except for the fat man, cheered for Brak's generous gesture.

The bearded man glared around at his comrades who were no longer on his side. He felt a tinge of jealousy and anger towards Brak for taking his spotlight.

"I don't need no damn handouts military man." The bearded man approached the two because he was bent on making them know that the tavern was his.

The bartender walked out from back with the wine in his hand. It was the last bottle of wine that he had of the special kind that the woman wanted.

She ignored the fat man's attitude when she saw the bottle of wine she requested. A smile framed her face because her mission would soon be complete. Once the bottle was in her hands, she was ready to leave the hell hole that was infested with an overweight rat.

 "Then don't drink it fool, I am sure your friends here will." Brak said as he began walking with his back towards the door. He didn't have much else to say here unless the fat man wanted to make a move.
"Shall we ma'am?" He said to Estrella.

[Estrella Divina]

"I will be right out Brak." She replied after he instructed about leaving. Uncaringly, she tossed a bag of gil on the table and took the wine from the bartender. The bartender's eyes widened in amazement at the amount of gil she paid for the wine. Taking notice to the keeper's expression, she smirked.

"Keep the change...pleasure doing business with you." She said with a cool tone. Once she thanked the keeper, she walked towards the door.

The big man glared at the bag of gil that was tossed on the tavern. It was obvious the woman was part of a larger scheme if she was that loaded. As the woman made her way towards the exit, he put his oversized arm in her path to keep her from leaving.

"Where ya going with the soldier? You two just got here." He chuckled. The rest of the customers fell silent amd observed the escalating theme.

She was stopped from leaving the tavern. Glaring up at the towering, overweight behemoth, she be as mean as possible.

"Get the hell out of my way fat ass or I will...." She looked over at Brak before finishing her statement. The freak in front of her finished it for her though.

"You'll what? Huh? Beat me up? PUHHHLEASE! That soldier boy won't even look at me. I'm too big to be scared by a brat." He started laughing loudly once again.
