Berwald had seen the flash, and had just about time to realize that the (rather smelly) man had been taking pictures of the girl, obviously unwillingly, before said girl lauched herself at him. Berwald, who was entirely unprepared to deal with this development might have been physically bowled over if he'd been one bit smaller. As it was, he managed to stop her, instictively wrapping his arms around her for a moment, before he recalled the situation and let go.

"Ahum..." He harrumphed, discomfited by the sight of the strange girl's tears. After scanning her over quickly to see there was no sign of serious physical damage (he was relieved to find there was none), Berwald decided he'd rather deal with the assailant first.

That decided, he pushed her aside gently, and stepped towards the unpleasant looking man.

"Saw that camera, gimme it. Now." Berwald said in his most threatening growl, holding his hand out and hoping he wouldn't need to use actual violence. Bandit Chief hesitated, but after Berwald glared at him some more, he handed the camera over reluctantly.

Berwald gave it a disgusted look, and then threw the camera to the ground, disregarding Bandit Chief's indignant shout.

"Ya better not try that again," Berwald told him darkly. "Now scarper."

THAT ICON IS SO BADASS, PAPA. *A*

This was awesome. It was exactly like scenes she had read in manga and watched in anime. Mei had no idea that real life could imitate fiction. She clutched her hands over her chest and watched with baited breath as her hero drove the creepy and (let's not forget) smelly Bnadit Chief off.

Bandit Chief stared at his broken camera with lament before he, indeed, scampered off. Though the last look he gave Mei told her that it was not the last she would see of him.

She quickly ran over to the camera and picked it up, making sure that it was really broken. Then she opened the memory card slot and took out the memory card. No way in hell would she ever let ugly pictures of her end up on the internet.

Pocketing the card, she turned to the tall man and swallowed the dreamy sigh that was threatening to slip from her.

Timid, she said, "T-thank you. I wouldn't know what to do if you haven't come..." She brushed her hair behind her ear and looked down at her feet. Why was her heart beating so quickly? Okay, so this man was ridiculously good-looking, but it's not like Mei had never seen hot white men before.

"Oh, I-I'm Mei by the way... And you are...?" Unable to hold it in, she let out the sigh, eyelashes fluttering.

"Um...'s nothing..." Berwald mumbled. He was hesitant to leave the young woman alone, because her assailant might come back, but on the other hand...Well, to be frank the look in her eyes made him feel a bit uncomfortable. It was not that he felt threatened, as that would have been ridicilous...scared of a tiny girl who had to look up to meet his eyes? But she was standing very close. Too close.

It made his hackles rise up, in a sort of uncomfortable embarrassment.

She took a small step even closer, and Berwald backed away, one arm rising slightly out of instinct. The one with the pruning saw he'd forgotten all about, as it happened, and Berwald looked at it, half surprised. Then, in a split second decision, he held the saw out to the girl.

"Take this," Berwald said gruffly. "J'st...in case he comes back or...dunno. An'...don't use 'ny dark alleys, 'k?"

With that advice, he made a hasty escape, not even noticing he'd forgotten to introduce himself as asked, so glad was he to get away from the girl with the ominous spark in her eyes.

NUUU, COME BACK. ; A ;

Mei gasped and blushed red as a blooming rose in May. She clutched the saw to her chest. Her eyes fluttered and glistened. She was almost on the verge of tears, out of gratitude and the fact that her heart was about to jump out of her chest.

"T-thank you," she called out. "THANK YOU, SIR! Thaaaaaank yoouuuuu!"

She looked down at the present and sighed. Hugging the saw, she hurried out of the dark alley and into a future where heroes truly existed.
