Jack examined the small pin badge he'd been given. It was like some kind of weird red windmill with a dress on. He looked at the small child smiling up at him. "Um? What is that ... this?" Jack said, he wasn't as good at Japanese as he used to be but he could still get by. "That's Futo-kun!" The little girl replied with a huge smile. "I see, ah ... What is Futo-kun?" He asked again. The girl's smile seemed to get bigger "It's our mascot!" She told him. "Oh, I see, thankyou very much," Jack said patting the girl on the head.
Jack patted the girl on the head and then walked down the street, apparently it was some kind of big event, the anniversary of Futo-city or something? It might be a fun event but it wasn't why Jack was here. He was here to see if he could procure a Gaia Memory, apparently they could change people's bodies, might he be able to reverse engineer a couple? Use them to stabilise Orphnoch DNA?
Jack rounded the corner and smiled, a large parade was going down the street, Futo-kun balloons, massive floats with idol singers and school children on them. Jack smiled, what the hey, he was here for a few weeks. He took the Pin Badge and placed it above the Smart Brain one on his lapel before mingling into the crowd.

"Mou..." Kurohi sighed as he stumbled around the carnival. He wore bright white gloves and a business suit despite the sweltering weather. The usual attire of the dealers did not help his position. He had a heavy silver briefcase that he had on a sling hit into his leg again as people all around gave him odd stares.
How the heck was he meant to sell these? Those wish-granting Kaijin that were rumoured wouldn't even do that.
Maybe... If he just took one and injected it...
Yeah. That would be fun. His managers would be furious so he'd choose the biggest one there was.
He sat down on the ground and opened up his case. The many different coloured metals gleamed at him. The gun-shaped tool was fitted into the corner of the top section. It was tucked in beside a large stack of brochures.
"Arms, Money, Rocket, Death, Camera, Explosive... Gene, Noise, Ocean, Tree(What?), Queen, Hammer... " He muttered as he read the small silver plates underneath the Memories. They were in English, which was a bother. He decided to use the Explosive Memory.
He slid it into the injector and aimed it at his arm.
With a smile on his face, he pulled the trigger and injected it into his body.
[Mind if he goes on a rampage? We could make it so that he's about to attack Jack but gets peeved off when he's not afraid.]

[Okay, I've set it before Just Another Day in the timeline so Jack still has his Orga powers]
Jack was trying to explain what "Fish And Chips" were to a bunch of high-school boys who had asked where he was from in surprisingly good English (One of them wanted to teach Japanese in America so he'd been practising extra hard).
"Well it's, um ... like Takoyaki," "I thought you didn't get octopus in England," One of them pointed out in Japanese. "No, not squid um, it's sort of ..." "Cheap and easy to buy?" The wannabe teacher asked. "Yes, like that," Jack chuckled, trying his hand at Japanese.

Kurohi watched as he transformed into a Kaijin. He had wrinked navy skin and had strings of dynamite strung all over him. There was a crate marked 'TNT' molded into his shoulders and his head was rather round and black with a multitude of fuses stringing out. The only armour he had was a few plates of grey armour molded into his body. A weapon much like the injector was in his hands only it was black with translucent red windows. He pulled a stick of dynamite out of the small grey-green-brown(It's like a muddy colour) bag connected to a string of explosives and fired it.
He shot at the ferris wheel, he shot at the merry-go-round, he stopped to eat some chicken drumsticks, then he continued on his rampage. He gleefully targeted individuals as he walked.
He spotted a small group of people, mostly Japanese but with one foreigner.
He shot.

Jack pushed at the nearest boy, letting himself fall back due to the law of equal and opposite reactions. The Lion Orphnoch hit the ground hard and stood up rubbing his back. "Oh, finally," He said, noticing the kids running away "I was hoping I'd run into a Dopant eventually,"

"What the hell are you supposed to be?" Kurohi shouted at the grey figure. He charged foward and fired several more shots, all of which missed. He stopped a few meters away from the man.
"Run, you idiot!" He huffed.

Jack just stood there and put his Driver on. He opened up the phone and pressed "0" three times followed by ENTER. "You have one chance," He declared "Give me your memory or I take it from you by force,"

Kurohi paused and considered it for a moment.
"I'll sell you a whole breifcase of Memories and an injector for 30,000 Yen." He offered as he returned to his human form. His Memory slid out of his shirt sleeve and fell into his hand. "Either that, or..." He shrugged his jacket off and slid up his sleeve. He held the Memory back by the living port. "I'll blow them all up."

"Go ahead," Jack said with a fairly apathetic shrug "Anyone willing to blow up his product is clearly a shoddy businessman."
He stroked his chin and looked at the case. "I'll buy the lot off you for 100,000 yen, no, 150,000." He offered.

"Deal." The seller replied with a grin. He would only have to give whatever 12 times 5,300 Yen was to the company, and the rest would be his... That would be about 88,000 Yen to himself. Kurohi gave a laugh and slid the case over to the old man. He threw his Explosive Memory over.
"Don't do anything funny with that one." He warned. "It could kill me."

Jack examined the device in his left hand. And then looked up at the man he'd bought it from. "How do I use it?" He asked, pushing the activation button and causing it to shout "Explosive!"

"No. Wait for the lights to die down. Then, stick it into the injector, press it to your skin and pull the trigger. Depending on your compatability with the Memory it might change locations." Kurohi instructed. "By the way, if you want to make your own Memory, you'll have to speak to our Manager. Those things explode if you try to get into them."

Jack did as instructed but nothing happened. He looked up at the person who sold him the equipment, an angry lion Orphnoch fazing around him despite his face appearing merely disappointed, if that. "Well," He growled "I suppose I'll have to talk to your boss then, would you be as so kind to refund me and take me to him?"

"Awww." Kurohi sighed. "Well, try another one, at least. That one probably doesn't work because it's my Memory."

"I think I know a more likely reason," Jack told him, with a burst of blue flame and white heat his body turned into that of the Lion Orphnoch and he took a step forward.
