"Looks like I'm not just some little girl, after all, huh?" Xiaoyu said after relaxing into a normal posture.
"...I will allow you to join me... We will find your beloved together..."
"Yatta!" She shouted a little as she jumped for joy.
However, Sorin arrived at the scene, as she noticed that Claudio was accompanied by another man. A quite handsome one at that. "Did you get beat up by a little girl..?"
"Hey! I'm not just a little girl!" Xiaoyu shouted, taking offense to that comment.
"What is your name..?"
"I'm Ling Xiaoyu. But you can just call me Xiao for short, if my given name is too difficult for you to pronounce."

Sorin and Claudio simply looked at her when she said she wasn't a little girl. Claudio then nodded when she finally gave her name. "Xiaoyu.... I am going to Italy... You can accompany me if you wish, I have an urgent matter at hand... I can train you..." He said, before walking towards the stairs.
Sorin smiled a little bit at Xiaoyu. He waved. "Sorin... I'm his... Well, I don't know what I am to him..." He pondered a little, but his mind was already on overload. This girl, however, was seemingly nice. "His name is Claudio, he's.. not really into introducing himself, I guess..." He tilted his head. "What happened..?" He asked her.

"Xiaoyu.... I am going to Italy... You can accompany me if you wish, I have an urgent matter at hand... I can train you..."
"Ahh, yes. I'm never too old to learn new tricks." Xiaoyu said. "If it will help me find Jin and save him, I will do it."
"Sorin... I'm his... Well, I don't know what I am to him... His name is Claudio, he's.. not really into introducing himself, I guess... What happened..?"
"Nice to meet you two. I believe Claudio was testing my resolve. And I supposed I showed him, I am the real deal."

Sorin smiled. "Well, it's nice to meet you..." He said, as he turned to go catch up with Claudio before he lost him. "Claudio..!" He called out. The Exorcist didn't turn, but he did slow his pace. "Do you really think it's a good idea to take on an apprentice..?" He asked. Claudio laughed a little. "I can do more than one thing at a time, my little lightning bolt..." He said, grinning. Sorin pursed his lips. "Well, I need to go get my mother... She's probably bored out of her mind..." He said.
Claudio nodded. "I will make the preparations with your father..." He looked to Xiaoyu. "...You can either come with me, or go with him. It is up to you..." He said. "There is work to be shared.."

Xiaoyu walked with Claudio and Sorin as they were now headed away from the Mishima Zaibatsu. Travelling to Italy is exciting. She knows finding Jin won't be an easy feat, but hopefully whatever Claudio teaches her, she can help Jin. After all, it would be cool if she could like have this cool glowing energy on her hands.
"...You can either come with me, or go with him. It is up to you..."
"I think I'll go with you! I should go grab my stuff."

Claudio nodded. "Be quick, Or I may leave you behind..." He said with a grin. Sorin shook his head. "Go... Find your mother..." Claudio said. Sorin nodded, and was about to leave Claudio, when he grabbed Sorin's arm. He laid a soft kiss on Sorin's forehead, which made Sorin smile. "Thankyou..." He said, before taking his leave.
"Xiaoyu..." Claudio said before she could leave. "I just have one question for you.." He narrowed his eyes. "Have you seen anything... Strange... lately..?" He asked. He noticed a small crack in her energy.

"Xiaoyu... I just have one question for you.. Have you seen anything... Strange... lately..?"
"Yes. It might sound weird... but I think I had a vision. It was of Jin... completely consumed by the curse that he was born with. Killing me. Or at least trying to. I took that as a sign that Jin was in trouble. I've never been a believer of a higher power... but I just felt that this was a sign... Jin is struggling. He needs his friends to remind him of who he is.

Claudio listened as she told him what had happened to her. He has his theories, but he would keep them to himself. "Well, I shall teach you how to defend yourself... If ever you come across his... cursed side..." He said, "Now, go gather your things... Meet me at this address..." he quickly jotted his hotel address and handed it to her. "I will then accompany you to Italy with Sorin and Antonio..." He said, flashing a smile.

"Well, I shall teach you how to defend yourself... If ever you come across his... cursed side..."
"That's great..." Xiaoyu said, remembering how helpless and scared she felt during her vision. She hoped that if she saw Jin, she wouldn't be helpless and be killed by his cursed form.
"Now, go gather your things... Meet me at this address... I will then accompany you to Italy with Sorin and Antonio..."
"I'll meet you guys there then. See you later. And Claudio." She bowed. "Thanks for everything!"

He smirked. "It is my pleasure..." He said, as he took his leave...

"I'll be seeing you soon, Claudio and Sorin. Bye."
Xiaoyu waved as she then left the Mishima Zaibatsu and made her way back to her apartment as she had to get ready for a trip to Rome.
