Ooc: You don't have to have perfect spelling and grammar (cause I don't XD) but please be a little descriptive and try for no one-liners. :)
Ace

Ace sat on top of a city building, looking down into the slightly crowded streets. It took him a few moments to find the girl who was his target. When he did, he blinked in surprise. Funny. She doesn't look at all dangerous or threatening to me, Ace thought before he shrugged. An order's an order. He continued watching her.
Eriko yawned, her hair a bit frizzed. She had been studying too long and now she was tired. She tried to walk fast but her fatigue slowed her down.
She stopped for a moment to check her phone. No messages? Weird.
She looked around.
"Is it just me," she mumbled. "Or is it strangely quiet out here...?"
Ooc: I love FMA!
Ace scanned the area around her before leaping down just a few feet in front of Eriko. "Hmm, it might just be you," he said with a small smile.
((IKR!))
Eriko jumped a bit, dropping her phone. She stared at the stranger.
"W-Wha..?" she said.
Ace chuckled when she droped her phone. "Jumpy?" "I said, it might just be you,"he replied.
After a moment of looking her over, he tilted his head slightly to the side. "I'm curious. Do you have any idea why a whealthy man would want you dead?"he asked, casually.
She stared at him and shook her head slowly.
What's this all about?! she thougt.
After a few moments of silence, Ace sighed. "Well, I was hopping I could learn something tonight,"he muttered before a slight smirk crossed his lips. "Guess life is full of disappoitments." He pulled a pistol from behind his back.
Her eyes widened.
"W-what're you doing?"
She glanced at her phone on thee ground. 1 new message...
Still smirking, Ace leaned against the wall of a building. "You can answer one last message, if you wish. It won't make a difference,"he said, looking at the gun in his hand thoughtfully.
She was shaking a little. She decided not to pick up her phone yet.
"W-What do you want?" she asked.
Ace looked slightly annoyed. "I don't want anything,"he replied, simply. "My employer, however, wants you gone."
"Oh, I see..." she said. She thought to herself for a moment. "Okay then if he really wants me dead then go ahead...."
Her eyes looked very troubled and distant. She rubbed the side of her arm silently.
Ace blinked, frowning. "Why so eager?"he asked, still looking over the pistol in his hand.
"Well," she said sadly looking at the ground. "I guess maybe... it would be better off if I was gone anyway."
"Huh. Why do you say that?" Ace asked, looking at her curiously. He absently put the gun in it's holster.
"Nobody's going to miss me... I don't really have any real friends or family..." she said quietly. She looked up and wiped her eyes quickly. "Oh, don't mind me, I'm just babbling I guess.."
Ace frowned again before sighing. "Well, in that case, we're alike,"he muttered and shrugged. "What's your name?"he asked.
"Eriko..." she said, looking at her phone on the ground.
He nodded. "I'm Ace,"he said, glancing down at the phone. "You can answer that. I wont kill you. At least not tonight,"he muttered before a yawn.
She nodded and reached down to pick it up. She stood back up with a sigh and read the message.
You better get back home right now! You're late! You're going to have consequences!
She clicked her phone off and stared at the black screen blankly. Her eyes were faded and distant again.
