Thief in the night (Open)

[JIN DANIELS]

* Ring Ring Ring* groaning Jin felt around for his phone which had an absurdly loud and annoying ringtone all the while cursing whoever changed his ringtone, which of course was obviously Morgana his now long time girlfriend.  As he grabbed his phone he answered the call before looking at the time displayed on the screen, glaring at the screen he saw it was five am in the morning which caused annoyance to swell up inside of him as thoughts of robbing the person who disturbed his amazing sleep as he was wrapped in the loving embrace of his girlfriend.

"Yeah who is it" he said into the phone waiting for an answer, before hearing a familiar voice answer him on the other end. Scrunching up his face in confusion as he heard his adopted father's voice answer his question he briefly wondered what could be so important that he was calling and at this ungodly hour of the day aswell.  "Hey kid, sorry for calling at what I assume is an early hour. I just learned some interesting news and was wondering if you would be interested" his adopted father said to him.
"Yeah well what's the news old man" he responded feeling annoyed as he heard Morgana call for him to come back to bed, telling her he would be back to bed soon he got up waiting for his father to explain.  "Young people no respect for the elderly, I'll explain it right now no need to be grouchy." he grumbled before continuing. "Okay so anyways I heard from a contact of mine that's in the Thief's guild in New Orleans that there is festival called the Mardi Gras, and they're inviting other thief's for around the world to celebrate with them. I thought this would be a great oppurtunity for you to make new connections of your won and maybe you could learn a few things more from a few masters I rolled with back in the day."  He explained to Jin before apologising again for calling at such an early hour and hung up.  As Jin proccessed the information he had just learned from Jase, the only noise that penetrated the silent room was the dial tone of the phone before he ended the call.

Later on in the morning...
Yawning he stretched his weary limbs, before starting his early morning exercises which consisted of 1K pushups and sit ups, before practicing his aim with his throwing knives using a training dummy with the vital and vulnerable points highlighted on it. Just as he finished he heard the tell tale signs of someone knocking on his apartment door, opening the door he wiped the sweat dripping into his eyes with his shirt displaying his rock hard abs to whomever was in view. Dropping his shirt from his face he smiled at the form of his girlfriend before stepping aside allowing her access into the apartment. while helping her with the various grocery bags she had with her.
"Hey darling, how are ya?" He asked dropping down on the sofa beside her as she rested her head on his shoulders seemingly tired from shopping.
"I'm good thanks, just tired anyways what was the call about last night". She asked curious of what was so important that someone had to call so late or early depending how you want to put it. "Oh that well it was my father, Jase I told you 'bout him right"? He answered before questioning her determining wether or not he needed to explain who his father was or not. "Oh no you don't need to I know who he is, remember we visited a month ago. So what did he want or rather what did he want you to steal this time"? She asked fully aware of his extra-curricular activities.
"Well you should be glad he doesn't want me to steal anything" *This time, * he added in his mind. Knowing how she felt as his extra-curricular activity as she calls it, which has been the instigator of many arguments between them. "Okay then what did he want"? she asked stressing the word want.
"Aight so basically according to my father there is a job offer he thought I would be interested in and it's completely legal. He told her not at all feeling guilty for lying which would eventually come back to him.

Later that night...
*Ring Ring*Ring Ring* was what he heard as he waited for his father to pick up the phone. After waiting a few minutes he ended the attempted call before hearing the sound of an incoming message coming from his phone,*PING* opening the text message it revealed to Jin's shock and annoyance his apparent hotel bookings and plane tickets that are scheduled for him to leave in two hours and that he apologises for not letting him know sooner and as compensation he has given him money to buy all he needs when he arrives in New Orleans.
Throwing the phone on the bed Jin grabs his suitcase from the closet in the hallway before heading back into his bedroom and packing all his necessary items in to the suitcase. Once he was done he received another message which he knew from the loud *PING* sound that emitted from his phone. Opening up the message it read. Leave ur weapons I got a contact who can sell u your throwing knives with a discount as a favour from me
Sighing to himself at the immaturity of his father, he left the apartment but not before leaving a note on his door letting whoever came to it know he was away and would be back soon.

Hotel...

Arriving at the prestigious hotel Jin strolled across the main lobby with swan-like grace as he made his way to the reception in order to
check in.
"Hi my name is Jin Daniels and I have a reservation and would like to check in please" he said to the receptionist with a grin. Waiting for the receptionist to check him into a room he used, this time to look around the hotel finding it worthy of it's reputation.After a while the receptionist came back but kinda glared at Jin it was kind of strange to have someone his age look ten years younger than he should.
"Mr.Daniels your room is on the third floor the last room down the hall. Here is your key and if you need anything please call we would be glad
to help, enjoy your stay."
Entering his hotel room he dropped onto the bed unceremoniously. *I'll unpack tomorrow he thought as he stripped down to his underwear before falling asleep*.

Yawning as he got out of the comfy bed, he made his way towards the bathroom in order to perform his morning rituals, just as he had just about finished he heard his phone begin to ring in the other room. Quickly rinsing the paste out of his mouth and placing the toothbrush in the cup he hastily made his way back to the bedroom where he left his phone, entering the room Jin spotted his phone vibrating on the shelf by the bed which was where he had put most of his valuables such as his wrist watch and wallet.
As he reached out to pick up his phone the vibration stopped meaning the caller had hung up, feeling curious about who could have called him and fustrated at not being able to reach the call on time Jin checked his caller id in order to determine how had called. Looking at the screen of his phone what stared back at him wasnt a number he recongnised and it seemed to be a number with a different area code than New York, which lead him to believe it was either from his father on a different phone or possibly and most llikely the weapons dealer his father had told him about earlier on yesterday.

Getting dressed Jin decided to head out for breakfast and see what New Orleans was all aboout seeing as he didnt travel much apart from when on a few heist with his father but they were never in one place long enough to appreciate the city they were in, such as the time he went to Paris or Italy. Shaking the thoughts from his head, Jin looked at himself in the full sized mirror that had been in the room and had to smile at how well he looked in his Outfit.
Stepping outside his room, he walked down the corridors into the lobby where he waved at the receptionist on his way out. Looking eft and right in the bustling streets of New Orleans where there was a street act on every corner he made his way down the footwalk careful not to bump into anyone as he didnt want to cause any unneccesary scene, as he continued walking his stomach rumbled leaving him aware of long ago he had last eaten a good meal.
Deciding to head for a cafe for some breakfast seemed like a good idea to Jin, as he wandered the streets in search of one, turning a corner to his left he spotted a cafe on the other side of the street when his stomach decided to make its presence known again which this time was noticably louder than before drawing in strange looks from surounding people close enough to hear the rumbling sounds coming from him.
Entering the cafe he was awarded looks from everyone in the building as he walked up to the counter with such grace befitting a dancer or well trained fighter. "Hi I would like to order a large cup of coffee and your finest breakfast meal" Jin said to the women behind the counter before handing the appropriate amount of money and sitting down on an empty chair by the window.
