He listened to the man quietly at first, keeping an unwavering and menacing gaze on him. This guy was definitely a professional to some degree but it had also made him uneasy that he had taken him so easily. If he said that he had taken the man off guard, perhaps he would be giving him the benefit of the doubt, and that was not usually something he did. While he listened to the man, it was obvious that he had wanted to get caught and he couldnâ€™t help but snort in amusement and pistol whip him again to prove that he was not letting Shizu go. The man had called her a monster but from what he gathered she was not; monsters were not what you were but how you acted. Monsters were manipulators, rapists, anyone that was a true criminal and had no feelings of remorse or regret, showing that they were sorry for their crimes. Monsters were those who enjoyed making people feel weak and who pushed others around for whatever reason. Those people in that village, hearing their remarks towards Shizu, they were the monsters.<br/><br/>Shizu was his responsibility now and there was no way in hell he was letting her go back to that place. So what if he was doing it for money, and perhaps he was a bit in over his head and might be involved with something he shouldnâ€™t be, but as she said he was a man of his word and damnit he was going to stick to his word. He had promised to teach her about the modern world. That promise would be kept, regardless if she was a monster or not. All his life he has made a living out of this sort of life, in a sense this was just another assignment to him and in the end this manâ€™s little warning to him would mean absolutely nothing. He wasnâ€™t worried. If they wanted to come after him then so be it; they were powerless once he and Shizu reached Israel. He was hell bent on getting her there more now than he had been before. He even decided to confirm that he was serious about his mission: â€œI am willing to take my chances, I assure you.â€ Azrai was also a man who was prepared to die before he even thought of giving her up.<br/><br/>With a cold smile, Azrai then pressed his pistol against the manâ€™s head again as hard as he could and pulled the trigger. Throwing the dead manâ€™s limp body to the ground, spitting on it, he looked back to Shizu. There was something very different in his eyes then. It wasnâ€™t like the vigilant, intense gaze from earlier; in fact this time it was one that further showed his violent tendencies. It was almost like he was detached for a moment and he made keeping her safe his only reason for living at this moment. The professional in him was becoming something else, realizing that this task was definitely not going to be an easy one. Maybe he was biting off more than he could chewâ€¦ What if he did face death in the eyes and would not survive? He was not a man who was easily frightened but he was still uneasy about dying even if his profession has placed him in a good many near death experiences before. He always managed to get out of themâ€¦<br/><br/>Why did this feel so different? Was it because in the back of his mind, he did have a feeling Shizu was different than most people he has met? She seemed to be a bit nervous while the man was speaking, even glaring at him like she would rip his throat out of he said another word or something she was not pleased with. He was not the kind of person who made judgments based on the words of others, liking to experience things for himself, but he just had a gut feelingâ€¦ Well what he did know was that nobody deserved to be locked away unless they really did prove to be one of those monsters in prison.<br/><br/>Running a hand through his hair, he sighed and holstered his weapon safely under his jacket. Straightening his posture, he relaxed a bit though it was obvious his mood had changed from his calm mood before to someone that was indeed fully alert. However despite his now tense mood he still managed to speak softly like he always did, â€œAs much as I would love to walk around the city more, if you wish to head back to the hotel I will have no objections. I should probablyâ€¦ try to reach my contacts again to see if we can get out of here as quickly as possible.â€ He was rather pissed that their morning had been ruined and he knew that was not the last he would see of those men. His entire body was still rather tense and he as feeling extremely restless, sort like how he feels whenever his insomnia kicks in or he goes a long period of time without a drink.<br/><br/>He supposed he should get in touch with his contacts again or at least try. Hopefully some of them would answer him. Absently, he checked his phone, frowning a bit when he noticed there were no messages.<br/><br/>Looking to Shizu again, â€œIt is up to you what you want to do. As I have said already, I am fine with whatever.â€ Honestly he would rather stay outdoors and continue this little walk as if that man had no interrupted them. If only it were that easy, since it was obvious that they could not enjoy a walk without trouble happening again. Perhaps it was somewhat selfish to want to stay outdoors and put her in dangers, but at the same time he was really not fond of being inside. This was why he was giving her the choice. As he said he was not going to object to whichever she chose to do.
