"Oh, I'm sorry you think this is so funny," Fumi stood with her arms crossed and one eye brow raised. "But don't you see what this could mean? This could mean freedom from the inept rulers of Xerxes, better lives for everyone and new chances to make something of this world. Besides," She softened and sat back down, "I don't know what's out there but, I think, taking a chance and going to see where we really are... that's something worth the risk. I know you don't want to do anything that might put yourself in harms way; but this is your chance to get out and truely live your life the way you want without any limitations of the dome, or threats from the street or our corrupt government. What could be more important than that?"

He grinned after her slight lecture, almost breaking into laughter again; she had spunk along with her looks. Staking a step closer to her he stood over her, his face a calm mask, his arms uncrossed and his arm snapped forward. Dominic brought his hand inches from her face, his index-finger waving back and forth in protest.
"Oy-yo; you missunderstand me completely. I laughed because you came off as rather enthusiastic; even when we don't have any proof of even a map. Second I already have freedom of the inept rulers of Xerxas, as well as the people I assoucaite with." Dominic explained, pulling his finger away, "I am not concerned for my life, were I, then I would not be in the business of grifting, fencing, and stealing from theives."
After a moments silence, for his words to sink in, he continued; "I am concerned that a reporter who is concerned more for a story then her own life. Either way you think we don't have the luxury of time right now, grab something to keep you warm and keep you concealed."

Fumi quickly stood up from the couch. She was but perhaps an inch away from him. "You have me all wrong, but I think I've got you pinned." She piveted and pushed past him to pick up one of the random hoodies she had thrown against the floor. She put it on and grabbed her wallet, then walked to the door. "Well, aren't you comeing?"

Dominic gave a shake of his head and a sigh as he moved past her and out of the apartment. Leading her down the stairs and out the building, holding her lightly by the wrist to keep her close he brought her through the darker parts of the city. Less then an hour later the sun was setting and they stood before the back-door of a small square building. Reaching up he rapped once, paused, rapped twice, then once more; obviously a code.
There was a long pause before a hidden slit in the door opened at about eye-level, Dominic took a quick step to the side. The eyes behind the opening were squinted and seething with anger. After a moment there was some disscussion between a pair of men behind the door. The slit closed and the door opened, two large men gesturing for Dominic and Fumi to enter.

Fumi was glad that Dominic had he by the wrist and she kept as close as possible. The people in this distric scared her. When they came to the door Fumi unlatched Dominic's hand from her wrist and threaded her arm through his, keeping very close as they entered the house with the two big men stareing down at them.

{{Well right now there are two split stories. One is involving Dominic and Fumi inside the city, which seems more advanced then the outside world. On the outside there is a conflict going on between two factions [I'm remaining ignorant of it so that I can't use any of their posts later and screw up the roleplay] And one person has managed to stumble outside of the city's shell and was discovered by a fleeing group of the loosing faction. That's atleast my understanding of it all.}}

{{Mid-day outside sunsetting inside. I assume there is something akin to a fake sun within the city [think the Truman Show] so the days are set to a different time zone.}}

"What the hell do you want this time?" Came a coughing voice from behind the two large men.
The pair of body-gaurds parted and revealed a small tabel and a pair of chairs. Sitting in one of these chairs was a frame looking man, a bald spot shown on the top of his head, a greesy halo of long grey hair circled his head. He coughedand gestured for Dominic to move forward. Dominic kept Fumi close as they walked the short distance to the table. He slid the chair out and took a seat across from the old man.
"I'm here for abit of trade." Dominic said, finally breaking the tense-silence of the room.
"Of course you are, that's all you ever come here for. You won't stop till you get every last bill from my pocket." The man responded, ending with a wad of spit to the floor.
"Come now Marcik; I'm actaully here to buy something off you." Dominic announced with a grin.
"And what would that be, your not into half the stuff I sell and the rest isn't as good as the stuff your carrying." Marcik pointed out, raising an eyebrow and leaning forward.
"I'm here for the map." Dominic explained, cutting through the banter.
Marcik began to laugh, a low weezing noise that sent a shudder up the spine of everyone in the room. He slid his chair back and made for the door behind him, he pulled forth a key and opened the lock. The door swung open on well oiled hinges, making not a sound, and the old man shuffled inside. A few moments later he came out with a metal tube and rested it on the table.
"So you want this now do you." He said grinning, showing, oddle enough, a perfect set of white teeth, "And how much you planning on pay for it."
"First let me see the map." Dominic said through gritted teeth.
With a twist and a snap the old-man pulled open the container and unfurled the map, displaying old letters and landmarks, some were familiar to the youth others were not. The striking fact was the map showed the city in the center and numerous arrows and marking indicated exits to the outside world. This was the real deal and Dominic couldn't help but get a chill at the thought of what might be outside this dome.
With a nod the young man reached down and pulled out a small folded piece of leather, he slapped it on the table and slid it near to Marcik. The old-man opened it and began to count the bills inside, his grinning growing as he added up the numbers. He nodded and slid the map to the youth and waved his hand for them to leave. In an instant Dominic was standing straight and ushering Fumi out the door from witch they came; carrying the metal cylander of the map to the outside world.

Fumi plastered a calm exspression on her face and stood close the Dominic the whole time; fearing that if she let loose for only a moment one of those big figures would take her for randsome. And Fumi didn't put it past Dominic to walk away. She stood solidly beside Dominic's chair as he talked to the strange old man. She lightly placed her hand on his shoulder as the old man sauntered off to retrieve the map. As he opened it her eyes widened in excitement, It is true! There is hope yet, she thought. She put some pressure on Dominic's shoulder as he paid the man. Once he stood she link her arm through his once again, quietly sliding past the looming body gaurds out into the street. Once securly outside Fumi smiled up at Dominic and said softly, "Your place or mine?"

"I would like to think the innuendo of that statement is leading to were my mind had already gone, however." Dominic slipped behind her quick and scooped her up into his arms, "I fear you might have to wait just a moment."
At that instant there was a loud rattle from behind them and a bang as the door flew open and the two large men came bursting out. They spotted the couple and began to give chase, pulling forth some rather nasty looking weaponry.
"Grab that little b*****d so I kin gut 'im myself!" Screamed the voice of Marcik from beyond the dark threshold, his guards lurched forward and gave chase.
The young man broke into a run, turning the corner in a skid, not breaking his step even a stride. He rushed along the street and turned left once again, hoping to get behind the pair and away.
One of the guards had thought the same as the youth though and cut him off, a large chain in his hand, a thin whipping blade on the end. He twirled it about his head in a swift arc then let fly at about chest level to the young man.
Dominic's leg muscles twinged as he lept onto the a near by stoop. Not slowing he lept a second time and heard the woosh of the chain below his feet and felt granite chipping free of the stoop he had just occupied. As the chase continued he glanced down to the woman in his arms and gave he a sight shrug of his shoulder's.
"As I told you before I steal from thieves."He explained with a devil-may-care smile, "As you can see they did not taking it in stride."

Fumi began to reply to Dominic when she suddenly felt her feet lifted quickly from under her. Before she realized what she was doing her arms were securly wrapped around Dominic's neck. She let her head fall to his warm comforting chest, closing her eyes when she heard the car door slam. She clung to Dominic as they raced through the streets and did not open her eyes; she just let his strong arms carry her to safety.
Oh how quickly Fumi gave her trust! Her life was literaly in the hands of this man, and yet she had no fear. Fumi opened her eyes when Dominic had explained the situation and looked to their pursuer. He was nearing them with his blade and chain. He lashed out at them and Fumi stuck out her leg; the chain quickly wraped around it and the blade sunk into her calf between to rows of chain. It didn't go far; but it hurt enough. She clentched her teeth and as she released Dominic's neck she flipped back onto another stoop, her powerful leg jerking the guard with her. She gasped in pain as the blade dug further into her. The guard picked him self up and ran to Fumi tackling her to the ground. He smiled with his decaded teeth and said,
"Looks like I got a little prize for meself!" As started to pick her up, Fumi reached down and pulled the blade out of her calf screaming in pain. But she quickly stood, cutting the guard's throught and he fell quickly and heavily to the ground. Fumi's leg was covered in her own blood; the pain was so great that her leg quickly gave out and she too fell to the ground. Her sight was blurried with tears, but her face was smiling. Her hoodie fell back revealing her long black hair wildly strune about the ground. She was glistening with sweat and covered in blood; but at least, for now, they were safe.
