A bar at the end of the universe.

Hiding in the protective shadow of a Bar.

"Pssst. Hey. Frak."

"Uh...me?"

"Yup. Wanna do me a favor?"

"That depends...who and where are you?"

"Not important. Just like....turn around and tell me if the funky-haired girl over by the window still looks pissed."

"Uh. Holy crap is that....is that Mel Fray?"

"Maaaaybe."

"Wow...just....wow."

"Yeah yeah, I know. Trust me I know. Does she look pissed?"

"Kinda, yeah."

"Do me a favor? Bring this to her."

A hand reaches up from behind the Bar and places a bright gerbera daisy on the bartop.

"Dude, to be honest...I don't think that's such a good idea."

"Why's that?"

"Have you seen what she can do? I mean...she's a SLAYER."

"Well yeah, of course I have, which is why YOU'RE going to go over there."

"Oh yeah? What makes you think I'm crazy enough to do that?"

Mike peeks over Bar's top and looks deeply into eyes that just so happen to look exactly like his.

"Because to be quite honest, you'd be crazy not to. Sorry dude, you're caught between a ninja and a slayer place."
