He looked up and raised an eyebrow to find a fit looking woman leaning over his tarp, eyeing him and his gear. After a moment, he removed an earbud and said with a smile "[color=0072bc]Yep, that's a Marine Corps radio alright. I got it from my dad's big pile of old Corps stuff, he was in the Marines so he has a lot of it. Figured I could splice it together with this phone, try to make a long rage one.[/color]" Jane Kelly took note of the man's words and the fact that he acklowledged her English without fail. His smile was friendly enough, but now her curiosity was piqued as he confirmed that was indeed a Marine Corps radio. This man did not sound like a Marine himself, but his claim of how he got the equipment seemed valid at least. Furthermore, it seemed his technological skill was not lacking at the very least. [i]Already he is an interesting man.[/i] [color=00aeef]"Your father was a Marine? What unit did he serve in?"[/color] Danny gave a slightly embarassed chuckle at her question, saying [color=0072bc]"I uh...I don't actually know. He didn't like to talk about his time in the Marines, as I understand it didn't go too well...y'seem mighty interested in the Corps, were you a Marine too? If you don't mind my noticing, you do seem American.[/color]" Jane smiled and could not help but feel that Corps pride as she stated [color=00aeef]"That is because I am American. Sergeant Jane Kelly, 1st Marine Regiment. Served in the Middle East as infantry and as an assaultman."[/color] "[color=0072bc]Ah...cool.[/color]" Danny replied and rubbed the back of his head, thinking to himself "[i][color=0072bc]Aw man, I don't actually know what any of that means...[/color][/i]" After a moment longer, he asked "[color=0072bc]So, what're you doing here in Japan[/color]?" Jane replied promptly with [color=00aeef]"I am travelling to see the different places in the world without being shot at."[/color] It was the truth. She was merely a tourist here, though this did not mean that Jane was not staying. Far from it, in fact. [color=00aeef]"Have a few buddies stationed at Camp Hansen one time that suggested to start here, so I did."[/color] "[color=0072bc]Ah, that's cool. I work for a welding company stateside that sent me here to work on some big project. It's sure an interesting country, ain't it?[/color]" [color=00aeef]"I barely even arrived and I have to agree with you. A lot more to do here than back at my home in the states."[/color] Kelly thought a moment, [color=00aeef]"By the way, you didn't say your name. And while you're at it what company do you work for?"[/color] "[color=0072bc]Ah, right, my name is Daniel Williams, but you can call me Danny. I work for a little company called DynaMetal, you've probably never heard of us. Anywho, what brings you here this fine morning?[/color]" [color=00aeef]"I am out for a walk. Heard there was a nature trail a bit past that building right over there."[/color] Jane pointed to the office building. She thought for a second, [color=00aeef]"And you have guessed right, I have not heard of that company before."[/color] Danny chuckled and said with a shake of his head "[color=0072bc]Ah don't worry, you will soon. We're on the rise, especially in these parts. I didn't know there was a trail over this way, and I've been here plenty, but I guess I don't get off roads much so I'd probably've missed it...[/color]" Danny trailed off and his eyes returned to the half-formed contraption in his hands as he returned to working on it. [color=00aeef]"Oh I have no doubt I will hear more of you soon."[/color] Jane replied with a slight smirk. She will see if this becomes true or not. As she watched Danny return to work on his device she looked around, mainly toward the office building. She had a funny feeling about that place for some unknown reason, but right now there was no reason to concern herself. [color=00aeef]"You know, sitting there on the street and fiddling with that thing is only going to make you look more and more like a hobo, right?"[/color] Jane said off-handedly, though there was no harmful intent involved in the way she said those words. "[color=0072bc]A hobo huh? That's fine, working on this stuff out here in the sun is more fun than my workshop anyway. Is that why you came over here, though I was some random hobo who stole a radio from the Marines?[/color]" Jane giggled slightly before replying with a smile [color=00aeef]"Maybe. It is not that hard to get a Marine radio."[/color] She stepped toward where the trail was presumed to be as she said [color=00aeef]"Better at least get a table to work on."[/color] Sensing the conversation was near its end, Daniel was already looking back down at the radio/phone combo and tinkering, absently replying "[color=0072bc]Too heavy to carry around. A tarp is better.[/color]" Jane shrugged at this response, looking at her watch. [color=00aeef]"Suit yourself. I'm going. Maybe we will see each other again."[/color] With that, Jane gave a final nod before moving onto the trail.
