Itachi Uchiha

Itachi was dressed in his Akatsukie cloths as he etered the cafe. He of course took a seat in the far back corner whee it slightly concealed him. He ordered a beer and then just sat back and waited.

Matt Longstead

He had tried to have a pleasant evening at the NIght Club, but that hadn't turned out too well. His cheek still throbbed where Lanny had landed his punch. That'd be a nice bruise tomorrow.

After ordering a beer himself, Matt took a moment to look around the room. At that time, he saw Itachi entered and seat himself in the back. Right away, Matt got nervous. Much like Mikhail was the 'computer guru' for ATHA, Matt was a whiz on the computer. He knew all there was to know about the new gang. At least, any information that had been logged online about them; especially criminal records. Groaning to himself, Matt hunched down in his seat and tried to look inconspicious. "I always pick the worst places..."

Itachi

He took his beer and took a sip of it and then looked around.He didn't know anyone here yet. He cracked his neck then his eyes landed on the man that looked like he was trying to look inconspicuous.He watched him carefully.

Matt Longstead

After a moment, Matt cast a side-look and spotted Itachi staring at him. Shit! Does he know who I am...? Why's he looking at me? The young man sipped nervously at his beer, trying his best to pretend he hadn't seen Itachi. If it wasn't the CS Gang coming after him, it was always somebody else.

Itachi

He watched him carefully.He finished his beer and stood up.He moved over towards the man.Whats yuor problem you look like someone is about to bite your head off

Matt Longstead

"Huh? Wh- oh, me?" Matt replied, acting as if he didn't expect anyone to be talking to him. "No problem." He added quickly, setting down the menu as he prepared to get himself out of this situation. "You're part of the new gang in town, the Akatsuki's, right? Good luck with that, I'll be cheering for ya." Matt remarked with a touch of sarcasm, as he was want to do. But in all honesty, he hated the CrypticSilvers, and would love nothing more than to see them ousted by another gang.

Itachi

He watched this man and listened. He heard the sarcasm and slightly glared.How pathetic is everyone else in this city?He question.

Matt Longstead

"Well, on a scale of 1 to 10... oh, wait, you're not joking?" He copped back, with a grin tugging at the corner of his mouth. The joking smile faded away though as he took a sip of beer and looked back up at Itachi, "But seriously, you guys plan to go up against the CrypticSilvers or something?" Despite being fearful of the gangs, Matt was a quick talker, even when he was terribly nervous.

Itachi

He watched him and rolled his eyes.What it to you if we do or if we don't?He said with a raised brow.

Matt Longstead

Matt waved a hand in the air, as if pysically dismissing his last question, "You're right, it's none of my business. Asshole..." He coughed under his breath, picking up the menu again as he began to absently look over the meals.

Itachi

He glared at him as he just barely heard his last word.s He grabbed him quickly by the scruff of his shirt and pulled him upWhat did you call me punk?He hissed.

Matt Longstead

Not again... he just had to let his mouth run again. "N-nothing! I swear! I just said it was none of my business!" Matt quickly stammered, gulping loudly. "You don't want to bother with me, you know... you, you'd have more fun beating up on some CrypticSilvers, right?" He hedged, trying to draw the fire off himself.

Itachi

He glared at him his eye twitched.His hand keeping a hold of him. His red eyes glaring in at him.I have fun beating up any one i want toHe hissed .

Matt Longstead

"Is that so? That's a... great hobby..." Matt mumbled meekly, his own dark-brown eyes looking at Itachi. "That's never a good sign..." He commented next, seeing the twitch, "...but really, you don't want to beat me up. I don't fight back, I'm just your 'average joe', no fun to pick on."

Itachi

He kept a tight hold of the guy.True, But you see you pick with the wrong people ad they'll kill you right off the bat

Matt Longstead

"Ah - I see, I see! I get your point, man!" Matt replied hurriedly, realizing he may have pushed Itachi a touch too far. "I think we got off on the wrong foot, lets start over... my name's Duke..." Matt said, forcing an obviously feigned, sheepish smile.

Itachi

He glared at him.Start over oh please.NO I don't think i willhe hissed and then threw a fist for the guys face also letting him go.

Matt Longstead

With a cry, Matt fell backwards, tripping over the chair and falling to the ground. With a hand to his face, he inched back a few paces, "What the hell, man? What'd I do to you?" He accused, this time lacking the sarcasm in his voice.

Itachi

He glared at him and moved forward every time he went back.What did you do? Lets see Sarcasim oh yah you called me a asshole...He said glaring.

Matt Longstead

Slowly, Matt stood up. He grimaced when he saw a bit of blood on his hand that had been smeared from his mouth. Great, another bruise to add to his collection. "Fair enough, I'm sorry I called you an 'asshole'." He replied, though his voice was far from sincere. More like angered that he had to appologize, with a touch of sarcasm coming back, "Beating me up isn't going to get you anything, you know..." He hedged, not liking how Itachi was closing in on him still.

Itachi

He glared.Sure you areHe said and now through a kick at him.It will get my anger out

Matt Longstead

Just like he said, Matt didn't fight back. Instead, he crossed his arms in front of himself, hunching down as the kick was thrown. "Ok, ok! Stop already!" Matt pleaded, as the kick sent him stumbling back against a nearby table. "Hey, listen! I- I can be of help to you!" The kid said, deciding his best option to save from an ass-kicking was to make himself useful to the gang.

Itachi

He moved forward and raised a brow and then grined.Oh and how would you a coward chicken bay be of help to my gang?He hissed.

Matt Longstead

With no fist or foot coming his way, Matt eased his arms down a litte, though he was prepared for another attack. "I can do anything with computers, anything you can think of." He breathed out, speaking rapidly as he tried to get his point across before Itachi might decide it was a waste of time, "I can get an information you want, set up survalence, shut down any store... if something is run by technowledgy, I can control it." He looked to the gang member hopefully, wondering if his proposition would be considered helpful or not.

Itachi

He watched him. That would be good to have a roundProof itHe said.

Matt Longstead

He relaxed a little more now, "Uh, sure... well..." Matt looked around quickly, fingers flexing as he tried to think of a way to show his computer prowess, "I need access to a computer first. What do you want me to do? Just name it, and I'll be done."

Itachi

I want you to set up a security thing at my gang's baseHe said waiting

Matt Longstead

The kid nodded slowly, "I could do that... sure." Matt glanced to the door, wondering if he shouldn't just try to run out and get away from Itachi, rather than commit himself to the gang. But, given how quick the other was, Matt decided that would only make things worse for himself.

"If I do this, I need to get paid. I'm not exactly rich, and I don't have the means to buy the equiptment...." It was a dangerous thing to pose, but it was true.

Itachi

He glared.Proof yourself first then maybe ill pay youhe hissed.

Matt Longstead

"Maybe?" Matt complained, throwing his hands up. But before he was to complain more, he thought about the previous beating and stopped. "Fine, you drive a hard bargain... but fine. I'll need to see where you live." Damnit, this is a horrible idea...

Itachi

He glared slightly.His eyes threatening him to complain more.We live at 174 Division StreetHe hissed.I will meet you there. If your not there in a max time of 3 hours then i will come and hunt you downHeh issed turning to leave.OH and when you get there i'd becareful. Tehre are dogs running around that will bite yuor head offHe hissed ow moving towards his motorcycle out side.

Matt Longstead

"Three hours, ok." Matt assured, sliding a hand to the back of his head in a nervous manner. "Dogs? Oh, fun... that sounds great..." As Itachi left, Matt crumpled down into a chair, head burried in his hands as he mulled over the whole encounter.

After a few minutes of composing himself, Matt slowly got up and headed outside. He'd need to go get some equiptment now.
