"It is a good way to get killed. If you're unlucky enough to get mixed up with them, they'll stab you in the gut and leave you to bleed to death in a gutter somewhere. Even I wouldn't be any help against them." Haine turned and watched Misami turn to leave. "You'd better watch out, girl, if your friend Leon here gets mixed up with the mafia hes going to bring trouble. And if he gets ME mixed up in it I'll make trouble." He called after her. Turning back to Kiyoshi, he gritted his teeth and clenched his fists, looking down at the beaten and worn roof. "People think the mafia's a myth, but they're real enough, you too, stay away from that crap."

Haine was tempted to try jumping and using the tree to reach the ground faster like Devin had, but to do that safely he'd have to use his control over lightning to give himself some upward force and soften his fall, and he still wasn't sure if his power was strong enough to do that, it would take a LOT of lightning. Frowning, he walked quickly into the building, heading for the slums to go beat up some thugs and ease his temper.

"Stupid boy doesn't know where he's sticking his nose. He's going to get a lot of people killed too," he muttered.
