After the mission has gone south, patrols have arrived and start searching around the area. Kenny retreats in a local tavern and spends the night until the heat goes down. He then hears footsteps coming from the back.
Kenny grabs a pistol, cocks it and hides behind a wall, he aims
"Ahhh, por favor no me dispares!! (Please don't shoot me) " - woman
"Who are you!?" - Kenny
"I work here this is my shop!" - woman
"Who else is here!?" - Kenny
"It's just me, I was just about to close up!" - woman
"...You can't leave" - Kenny as he checks he back
"What, why not?" - woman
"...Cause I'm in trouble, aaargh" - Kenny as he groans
He starts bleeding behind his head off the impact from the handrail. Suddenly a couple of officers start knocking on the door and ask who's in here. Kenny takes his gun pointing it at the woman signaling her to open it and not tell them about him.
"Hello officer" - woman
"Evening mam. We saw your lights are still on and figured someone was here." - officer
"Yes, I own the place" - woman
"Mam we have some questions if you don't mind. Have you seen anyone in the neighborhood recently or seen anything suspicious lately?" - officer
"No I haven't sorry" - woman
"You sure, we thought we heard something back there." - officer
"Sorry it was just me, I was stocking up some crates for tomorrow." - woman
Kenny puts his hand the trigger
"..."
"Well thank you mam, call us if anything happens tonight alright, have a nice evening." - officer
"Gracias (thank you)" - woman
"Get in and lock the door" - Kenny
She locks the door and gives Kenny the keys
"Are you gonna kill me?" - woman
"... I only kill bad people, argh" - Kenny as he puts his gun away
"You're hurt. I can help you" - woman
"I'm fine it's just a scratch!" - Kenny
Woman goes to get a first aid kit
"Sit down" - woman
"Look I said-" - Kenny
"Sentarse!! (Sit down)" - woman
Kenny eventually sits down and the woman starts to treat him.
"What's your name?" - Kenny
"Connie...Connie Rodriguez. What's yours" - Connie
"..."
"What are you even doing in Mexico?" - Connie
"I can't disclose that" - Kenny
"Alright then" - Connie
"...Kenny, Kenny Kazuma" - Kenny
"So Kenny, what can you tell me about yourself?" - Connie
"There's...really nothing I can tell you about me, hehe." - Kenny
"All done. Since you're a boring person I'll tell you bout myself-." - Connie
Kenny's phone rings
"Kazuma here hello!" - Kenny promptly answers it
"Kenny...what the hell happened over there we lost contact with you guys!" - male voice
"The mission's been cleared our targets are dead." - Kenny
"Oh great, we'll send a-" - male voice
"Juuzou's dead!" - Kenny
"...Dammit Kenny what happened?" - male voice
"Got caught in the explosion" - Kenny
"Explosion!? You know what it doesn't matter, listen we got a problem. Your informative's tracker has disappeared so we presume his K.I.A., and so is your transport back. We'll try to get you another plane to Mexico but it'll take some time, so for the time being just be ghost and stay under the radar till we get you." - male voice
"..."
"Hello...Kenny you there-" - male voice
Kenny smashes his phone into a wall
"DAMMIT!!" - Kenny
Connie looks at him
Kenny sits down
"My brother's gone, I have no way back, all my shit is gone, FUCK ME!" - Kenny bursts
Connie sits next to him
"Y'know, this isn't really my tavern, it's my abuela's. She gave it to me before she died. I never made it to college and my parents thought I was incompetent, that I had to make sacrifices for my dreams. So I thought by having this place I could make those dreams happen without any sacrifices." - Connie
"What's your point" - Kenny
"There is no point, I don't know how to comfort people with words." - Connie
"Hmph" - Kenny chuckles
He passes out on
Connie lays his head on her legs as a pillow
They both sleep
Morning comes and we see Connie preparing outfits for both of them.
"Hey, wake up" - Connie
"What... what's wrong?" - Kenny
"Since it's a Saturday and you've fuck-all to do, you're coming with me." - Connie
"To where exactly, and did you just swear?" - Kenny
"...Look, I just wanna take your mind off things, give you the Mexican experience before you leave, that's how I comfort people!" - Connie
"...Okay, but I can't go out looking like this." - Kenny
"We'll go shopping, my treat." - Connie
They both head out and Connie starts showing Kenny the beauties of Mexico City, from the city's culture to amazing street food. They even go street shopping for new clothes and eventually visit historical museums. The day ends and they head back to the tavern.
"You were right, Mexico really is a nice city. I had fun." - Kenny
"I'm glad you did. Also there's a difference in what you just said ok, there's Mexico and there's Mexico City alright people are gonna-" - Connie
Kenny kisses her
"Mhmm...wanna do it in the guest room?" - Connie
They both laugh
They end the night by making out and the next morning Kenny receives a call from KNJ telling him a plane is coming to get him. He feels relieved and is happy that he's going home, but then looks at Connie
"Wanna come with me?" - Kenny
"...But who's gonna take care of the tavern" - Connie
"You can start a new life in Japan, with me" - Kenny
"...You know what, fuck it let's go." - Connie
They board their plane and finally leave Mexico City and Connie stares down on her home country leaving it for the first time.
They arrive in Shinjuku, Tokyo and Kenny goes to pay a visit to Akari.
Knock knock
"Coming-" - Akari
She freezes
"Hey Akari" - Kenny
Kenny steps in
"Where were you guys I was worried sick!" - Akari
"Akari listen there's something-" - Kenny
Baby starts crying
"I'll get that" - Akari
Kenny looks at the baby shockingly
"Yeah, he's a premature, must've missed his father so much." - Akari
"Where is Juuzou anyway?" - Akari
"..."
"Kenny where's Juuzou?" - Akari
"Put him down first" - Kenny
"Did something happen Mexico?" - Akari as she puts the baby down
"... Juuzou's dead" - Kenny
"...What" - Akari
"Akari I know it's a lot to take in-" - Kenny
"No no no no wait, I just talked with him 2 days ago what do you mean he's dead?" - Akari starts sobbing
Kenny hugs Akari
"No you're lying, you're lying!!" - Akari in tears
"I shouldn't have let him come I told him he has a family now." - Kenny
"What!!" - Akari as she pushes him back
"It's that all you did, told him he has a family?" - Akari
"What kind of brother are you!?" - Akari
"Hey listen-" - Akari
"What kind of brother let's his own sibling leave his girlfriend and son for a job!?" - Akari
"Hey! He knew that this was gonna get ugly and he got himself killed, and it costed him his family, this isn't my fault you hear me!" - Kenny as he grabs her arm
Baby starts crying
"Get out, don't ever come back here again. Nothing brings us together anymore now that he's gone so I guess this is it. Now get out!" - Akari
"Sniffles, fine" - Kenny
Akari comforts her baby
Kenny's about to leave
"His name's Jin. Juuzou wanted us to name him Jin, after your grandfather." - Akari
"...Thank you, sniffles. Wish he could see this." - Kenny
He leaves
