Day 1

Just a normal day as always, chilling in a rental house as always. Finding work in my peculiar occupation is pretty hard these days, a mercanaries life is pretty much never needed anymore. Today I wanted to start the day off with a nice plate of Eggs, bacon and rice. No matter what that combination would be the best breakfast anyone could ask for. Maybe there would be something on the paper today...

Opening up the door, the man dressed in a simple white t-shirt and blue pants walked outside when he noticed a present at his doorstep. Okay...he lived in a not so public area. It was very cheap to buy thats why! A good way to conserve your funds.

Once he opened up the present he noticed a small metallic toy made of some rather strong skilk. Maybe high quality. This would be great exept for one question. "Who? Why? And why?" The man spoke to himself. Okay, so he was a famous mercanary back in the days which people basically forgot about him. He was a fan on building plenty of machines. Mechs most importantly...But still. Most of the time someone who actually comes for him usually gives him a gift in lead. Pretty fun gifts... But right now, he just scratched his head and after examining it himself for free. He noted it was made of some very strong silk...but of course he was no expert on Mamano. Hell, he just recently heard the term. Monster Girls, supposidly all Mamano gave men unconditional love. Love at first sight was a true word to them or so he heard. But he just shrugged. The toy in his hands was of high quality, probally sold for a lot.

Week 1

At first, presents left on his doorstep every day was alright. But now this was gettin gonto stalker level territory now. Alright, now he wanted to get to the bottom of this. Using some newly aquired funds he began to instal cameras around his decently not very humble abode. Some aimed right for the doorstep. "Lets see you stay hidden now..." The man spoke to himself as he ate a plate of burgers and fries. And following the day after that there was a present left at his doorstep, and no evidence of anyone appearing. "Ok...now you have challanged the best..." He narrowed his eyes.

Month 2

Two months...And he had aquired quite a stack of metal toys made of fine silk...the problem is who was being ellusive enough to avoid the greatest mercanary around! Cameras were not working! Heck, even homemade robots failed to catch anything! It was like why? He was given presents for what sole reason!? This was burning his curiosity! And some of his pride to not being able to catch whoever is doing all this! Whoever is doing this was good at using other machines...Or avoiding them at the very least...He thought over what he should do after a nice dinner of steak. Following a week after the second month, he just raised his arms into the air as he had fortified teh area around his house with wires, cameras and drones. And tehre was a small little teddy bear which was soft...But there was no culprit caught!Closing the door shut and about to toss it on a pile, a sudden crash happened outside and he opened his font door like it contained gold right behind it. There! It was some sort of humanoid mantis! Using golden string to avoid one of his most cleverly set traps. "You aint getting away! You aint outwitting me!" The Mercanary called out now dressed in a red uniform and stormed out of his house with weapon slung around his shoulder.

The chase was on, she was quick to dodge his shots. Stun shots that was, little rounds that was like a tazer and a bullet had a kid. Perfect for catching someone unharmed, but still...it would work it he hit the blasted thing anyways and it was qquick. He had hated fighting superhumans, or anything that was much more stronger. It was a pain, why cant it be some regular army or spy or whatever! Had to be the weird ones he had to get. Soon the chase led into some sort of hidden hideout, spider webs adorn the place. And it was made out of scrap and stuff. This was a prime example of a makeshift house. He was being quiet, slowly wandering though this 'bulding?' or more akin to some sort of private den. All around him was projects all in various stages of development. Like some sort of toymakers hidout gone creepy...actually regular toyshops were creepy to start off with so this was like a weirder toyshop. He was not sure where the strange mantis humanoid went, but he soon heard some very familiar sounds he was used to. Building, someone or something was working on something. Carfully making his was over he noticed the mantis he had just saw outside his house. And it seemed that it appaered that she thought she lost him. He was not self proclaimed number one for nothing. Of course he was not taking chances. Carfully walking forward, making sure there was no invisible trap he used his weapon to wave around the air and the ground. Things seemed well until his wifle suddenly got stuck on something with triggered teh woman to turn around as it was caught and grabbed his weapon. He got her now! Rushing forward to grab her he got her in a firm bear hug and thats when his foot caught on something and the two would be suspended into the air upside down. Him stuck in her trap, and her stuck in his grip.

"Well played Mantis...thing..." The mercanary spoke as he looked her in her normal eyes and the purple eyes on her head. Eh...one set of eyes was all he needed to look at to get the point straight. "And same to you...Clever trap, and clever plan." The 'Mantis' replied with a smirk.

"I got some questions for you...What is the most resiliant animal in this world?"

"The tardigrade water bear or Milnesium tardigradum for the scientific name."

"Whats Tachyon Particles?"

"A hypothetical particle that always moves faster than light."

"Why the hell are you just sending me gifts and remaining hidden?"

"Because you are a smart man that enjoys creating things as well so I wanted to show my affection with gifts."

"You are smart for some sort of 'Mantis' like humanoid."

"I'm an Atoraru, we are the rare cousion to the Mantis."

After the rapid fire question and answer question was coomplete. The two still remained suspended in the air and stuck together with a certai nman still holding her in a bear hug. "Glad to see my hobbies attracted someone but I am not looking for romance. I'm a merc, I have jobs to do no matter how slow it appears. I ain't number one for nothing." The man spoke making his point clear. "Then I want to hire you, your a mercanary right? You take a job, or at least most jobs." The Atoraru replied with a smirk.

The mercanary narrowed his eyes in relization. "100,000 dollars."

"200,000, I get to use you as I please for the night. Wrapped up and any way I want."

"You drive one hard bargin monster...Damn...Hard to say no to those numbers...And I accept almost all jobs...You win this round then Atoraru."

"Names Bel'han. I want you to know the person who is gonna be leading the night."

"Yeah, and I'm Russian. Yes, silly name, based off an already existing country yes. But I had no name so I picked the first name that I saw. So it stuck with me."

"It is indeed very silly."

"We are gonna be the best of freinds this night..."

"I am gonna am enjoy every second of this night...All nine hours..."

"More like eight hours and fortyfive minutes. I keep track of time."

"Always this stubborn?"

"Nah. Born that way."

After the mercanary 'Russian' released the Atoraru. The two would gather in her bedroom for a long...exghausting and tied up night. The man could only retain his pride and a bit of arrogence the entire night to match with his lover for the night. And it was a long night of back and fourth talking and romance...
