Oliver had been pulled aside one day, by a rather desperate girl at that. Now some might think of this as a good thing, with all of the jobs he had been doing around Kou lately, he was developing at least some sort of name for himself. But the downside was when people came to him thinking he was utterly altruistic. He wanted to just see how people reacted when things were done for them, not out of some perfect nature gene in his heart. But when the red haired girl asked him for his help, who was he to refuse?
Well he probably should have before hand. Or at least heard the details of what he had to do before this whole debacle. See he agreed to the details and then was given that he needed to tail her grandpa and keep an eye on his gambling ways. Easy enough right? Well it would be were he not heading off to see what the old geezer was up to when he was getting too much money from a loan shark, one who wanted to start collecting some returns or 'send a message' the old guy's way.
That's where we land in this story now: The brown hoodie wearing assassin faced off in the back alleys of the gambling den of the fair town he was in, faced up against three goons and a loan shark. He was told that he was a kid with a good heart, and that was gonna get him hurt. Oliver could only sigh and rub the back of his neck, making sure that he had The Satellites knives with him, Big Dipper the cane hanging from his right hand with all sections bunched up in his hand.
No way he could take all four of them on his own. Better cause enough of a ruckus to get someone to possibly notice. The three goons approached Oliver, snapping their fingers which got a raised eyebrow from Oliver, who looked at them as if they were nutters. Though when they got close? The three surrounded him and sought to stab him!
Acting quickly, Oliver moved his weight from one side of his feet to the other, moving his stomach just out of the way! But the third blade sliced along his stomach. He responded by swiftly spinning his three section cane upwards and overhead which sent the goons tumbling backwards and knocking over enough pottery to get some noise loud enough to attract someone's attention, probably.
