As it turned out, Goientiz wasn't the only party interested in Ami's awakening Orochi blood. Geese Howard, the "Immortal" Shadow Boss of South Town also was taking a healthy intrest in the illigitmate daughter of Iori Yagami. It was by rather ood conquicidence that one of his Japanese contacts keeping tabs on his half-brother reported that the Emperor of Darkness prevented a high-school girl from being raped only to later state that Krauser clamed she had the same power as Yagami. A through background check soon produced a name: Ami Mizuno.
Like Rugal Bernstin, the Kobojutsu master was tempted by the power of the fallen Earth God embodied in those of its blood line, but unlike the Modren Day Pirate, Geese had enough common sense to know that attempting to directly seize the Orochi's power would have fatal conqusences that not even his knowledge of the Strolheim Scroll would remedy. So for now, he kept detailed observation on all of the current living Hakkeshu, their activites, location, family and the like in order to find a way to bring them under his control.
Riuji Yakazami, Hakkeshu of Mountain and Yakuza hitman was currently on Geese's personal retainer, providing the benefits of not only information but in having one of the most notorious assassians on his payroll, plus the side benefit of watching Billy Kane looking like he's about to have a stroke every five minutes.
Vice and Mature, the two Orochi Whores and former secretaries to Rugal were currently residing in the southren part of Tokyo. The two mainly worked as basic Jills of all Trades, though not as unscruplous as Yakazami, although Mature's main job was tring to keep Vice away from her "Iori-sama", due to a heavy restraining order.
Iori and Leona eventually married and settled in northeren Tokyo, where Iori is currently managing/preforming his own cafe. Geese took a moment to chuckle at remebering Commander Heidern's reaction to Iori and Leona's reationship, even moblizing the entire Ikari Warriors Mercany Company for the mother of all shotgun weddings, although he would have to try and find out where Heidern procuered those M.O.A.B.s he used.
As for the Three Heavenly Kings of Orochi; Yashrio, Chris, and Shermie, they were still continuing their preformances, despite how the "Iori-clone" articles had begun to resurface. That and the fact that they still sucked. The fourth, Leopold Goienitz, was dead and could rot in Hell for all Geese cared for.
Geese knew that the possibablity of Iori having a daughter with possibably all of her father's abilites at her disposal as well as being in a situation ripe for manipualtion warrented a close observation, but the question was who to send? He need somebody who was dilligant, loyal, unabtrousive, familiar with Yagami, and above all, highly expendable.
Within seconds, Geese knew the perfect person.
