"It's no problem at all. Actually.."
She scratched at the back of her head with a semi-sheepish look.
"I left my scavenger pack here in the chaos of that fight. I was coming back from negotiations with a freehold and wanted to see if it was still here. It probably isn't but it's worth a try. If you don't mind waiting a moment, I'll just check really quick."
The area they'd fought in was just over the pile of rubble to her left. Looking around to make sure there weren't any incoming threats, Olesya grinned and sprinted over to the rubble, skipping over the top with ease. She disappeared from view for a few minutes before returning empty handed. Well, almost empty handed.
"Found my knife! Guess that's something. Pack's gone though. Wasn't much in there but some food and a couple shiny things. Not the end of the world."
She slipped the knife into the criss-crossing ribbons around her calf once she reached Kazuya again. It would do as an impromptu holster until she got home. Straightening up, her thoughts turned to the matter at hand.
"How did you get here? Do you need a ride?"

Bowing his head slightly to Olesya, Kazuya would wait patiently while she went searching for her scavenger pack, though chances were it was long gone. In this day and age where supplies were precious, it was a free-for-all if items end up left behind. Kaori slowly emerging from her shy cocoon, she would peek out from behind her daddy's jacket as Olesya came back, having managed to find just her knife.
"... I came here on my motorcycle, so rest assured, I'll be able to keep up with you."
Gesturing to his motorcycle hidden behind the pile of rumble, he would move over to it and would lift Kaori up into the baby seat attached to his motorcycle, strapping her in securely and slip her helmet on. He would then open up the seat compartment and lift his helmet out, pulling it on and flipping the visor up, allowing him to see and speak to Olesya.

Les grabbed her own helmet, letting it hang in her hand for a moment as she watched him set Kaori into her seat. She grinned, before slipping the helmet over her head.
"Usually in that case I'd challenge you to a race but...maybe some other time."
She laughed, mounting her bike and turning the key, kicking up the kick stand. She flipped her visor down and gestured for him to take the lead. That way she could see ahead, to the side, and behind him, it'd be a safer idea for her to bring up the rear since she didn't have a baby in tow.

"... I concur. As much as Kaori would probably love the wind racing through her hair, I don't wish to put her in the middle of a high-speed race. Whenever you wish to challenge me, you can find me at one of three locations: my dojo and home, the bar I own and manage, or The Sky Force's base of operations."
Mounting his motorcycle and slipping the key into the ignition and turning his motorcycle on, he'd kick up the kick stand and giving Olesya a slight nod, would flip the visor down and slowly revving the accelerator, he would take off along the dusty road, Kazuya taking the lead and keeping an eye out not only ahead of him, but on the side Olesya was not watching.

Following behind Kazuya's bike, Olesya weaved from one side to the other to provide ample backup for their impromptu caravan. Kaleidoscope eyes were constantly scanning the area for any sign of threat. So far so good, but Olesya wouldn't relax until they were within the walls of Dragon teritory.
A couple eyes appeared from inside an abandoned building. They could be malignant or simply curious, but Olesya didn't want to stick around to find out. She revved her engine twice, a sign to Kazuya to pick up some speed. She knew that Kazuya didn't want to put Kaori in the middle of a high speed race, but depending on the intention of the bystanders, they might have to do just that.

Hearing Olesya rev her engine twice, Kazuya would rev his engine once, indicating he understood, and would accelerate. Far from being frightened by the sudden increase in speed, Kaori was having a ball, happily sitting in her baby seat, the wind blowing through her hair... well more like the ends of her hair, as she was wearing a helmet.
Regardless of the intentions of the observers, whether curious or malicious, Kazuya did not want neither him, Kaori, or Olesya to linger around to find out.

Olesya kept the bystanders in her rearview mirror, still occasionally checking left and right until they fell out of sight. It appeared as if they were safe for now, but Olesya only let her guard down from high alert to alert, as the active threat fell from her radar. They weren't out of the woods yet so to speak.
The ruined buildings fell away to an open space of land. Perfect of observing approaching parties. It also left them exposed. The gates were probably only ten clicks away at this point, Olesya could see the walls rising far ahead. They were almost in the clear.

Though the observers disappeared from view, Kazuya was still on guard, and would only relax once they were within the walls of Dragon Territory, and Kaori was out of danger. The ruined buildings along the sides of the road now giving way to open space, as the walls of Dragon Territory rapidly drew close, Kazuya would continue to stay on high alert. Only when the walls literally towered over them, the gates opening after flashing his Dragon patch, and the both of them were within the walls of Dragon Territory, did Kazuya finally breathe easy.
This was more than likely where the two of them parted ways, unless Olesya happened to be traveling in the same direction Kazuya was heading to go home.

Once they passed through the gates, the two bikes would part ways, as Olesya had to report her findings to her fellow officers involved in the freehold negotiations. Before she turned town the side route, she offered the man a quick salute, two fingers touching her helmet before extending her hand outward.
The would cross paths again, Olesya was sure of it. Afterall, there was a race to be won.

Returning Olesya's quick salute with the Dragon salute, Kaori would wave goodbye to her from her baby seat as Kazuya kicked on the acceleration and took off, heading off into the distance, to his home. They would cross paths again indeed, not only because there was a race to be had, but it was Dragon Territory. Sooner or later, you'd cross paths with a person unwittingly. And he was looking forward to racing against Olesya.
(End)
