She had been summoned to talk to Shigeru, and they sat there together over a large dinner. She was evasive with her answers when he asked her why she had left Geezerville, merely stating that she had to get away from there.
The older man noted how she was barely eating, and how her one hand was constantly on the knife.
"Katana, may I see that knife you seem to be so fond of?"
Her eyes widened and darted around the room. "Why? It's my knife...you can't take my knife away from me, I need it! gonk "
His eyes widened at her outburst, which was the polar opposite of the woman he knew before. "I merely want to see the craftsmanship. If it will make you feel better, you may just hold it up so that I can see it." He gave her a reassuring smile and she relaxed slightly.
She pulled the knife from its sheath and held the blade up so that Shigeru could see it. He merely nodded and motioned that she could put it away.
"I wonder, Katana, why you have such a affection for that knife. Where did you acquire it?" He went back to eating his dinner, hoping his questions would give him more information. Her behavior was alarming, but he wanted to keep her at his compound until he knew what was going on with her.
"It was a gift, from my...well, I guess you could call him my brother." She held the knife up and gazed at it, an odd smile on her face. "Isn't it just a thing of beauty? " She lightly drug the tip of the knife down across her palm before sheathing it again. Her eyes were almost glittering when she looked back up at Shigeru. "And it's mine. I'll be damned if anyone will take it from me."
The man nodded, "Your knife is yours, Katana...no one will take it from you." At least not yet, he thought. He would have one of his people do research and see if they could find out anything about that knife before he decided on anything.
Their meal finished, she excused herself back to her room.
