Fics like it's in my nature

Tangerine maybe feels a bit responsible for the civilian he inadvertantly got killed back in New York, but he doesn't feel guilt. And yeah, she was targeted because he'd used her for information, among other things, and gotten noticeably close to her, and perhaps he'd chosen her simply for her charmingly ironic name - Clementine - much to Lemon's chagrin, however whatever that feeling is, it evaporates less than an hour after he boards the Bullet Train bound for Morioka, and it's like seeing a ghost. He's not the only one surprised. The absolute last person disgraced mercenary, 'The Scorpion', expected to see was the hitman she had been hired to get close to for an intelligence gathering sting several months ago on the other side of the world. She even faked her own death, that bow was meant to be tied and in the past! Now here he was, on the same goddamn train as her client, and he's effectively babysitting the bastard who was responsible for disgracing her in the first place! This was meant to be an easy job, watch over The Prince until the train arrived at Morioka, but unlike her boss's daughter, The Scorpion never had any such luck.
