You know, that was pretty rude. *Jack appears behind Hat Adult, shuffling a deck of cards.* Still, they attacked first. It can be justified under self defence if this mnster mash wants to take ya to court.

(It's alright) Hat Adult looks at the Jack, and just sighs as two monsters tried to attack her from both sides but a shadowy circle appeared under Hat Adult and she vanishes to let the two monsters hit each other before she repears by coming out of the circle and slash the monsters at the same time, defeating them and letting them vanish into darkness

Eh. Effective, I guess. Though... huh, how I do I explain this uh... Oh! I know! *Jack draws 5 cards from a deck in his side pocket. He then holds it out to Hat Adult.* Pick a card. I guarantee it will help your situation. Come on. Humour me.

Hat adult sighs "fine. only since I believe more monsters are coming" Hat Adult picks the fourth card

*Jack retracts his hand and looks at the card. The tattoo on his right forearm shifts from "0" to "XVI". He flashes the Tower Arcana card to Hat Adult.* Nice choice. Allow me to show you a little magic trick. *Jack licks his finger and raises it. He then looks towards the direction the monsters were approaching from.* My Arcana shows your future. Beware overconfidence, for it will often lead to destruction. Ciao. *Jack snaps his fingers, causing the ground beneath the approaching monsters to glow before exploding. While the ground beneath them would remain untouched, the monsters caught in the blast would be torn apart.* Combat 101: Suprise attacks. It's easiest to kill your enemies if they don't know your there. Combat 101: Explosives. They always work.

"Ok" Only one monster remains "Let's finish this fight, alright then. you know what to do" Hat Adult said to her shadow arm. Soon the shadowy thing vanishes from her arm and soon a bunch of shadowy spikes pierce the monster before a huge hand appears, grabs the monster and bring it underground... the monster was now defeated

And that, as they say, is that. *Jack dusts off his hands.* With that being said, hows abut a game? See... *Jack pulls out a one pence coin and a shining hourglass that Hat Adult may recognise.* Word on ole Portobello is there's a girl with a hat lookin for these. See, I'm not about to give away for free. So, if that girl is you and you still want it, heads or tails?

Hat Adult looks at the hourglass and sighs, before looking at Jack "The girl was my younger self in this universe" Hat Adult gives some cash to Jack "Heads"

Time travel is a bitch, am I right? *Jack flips the coin.* 50-50. Heh. *Jack catches the coin and peeks at it.* Wouldn't you like to believe? *Jack throws Hat Adult the hourglass before pocketing the coin.* Guess I got unlucky for once.

Hat Adult takes the hourglass and smiles "You can keep the cash and, i'm not from the future but from another universe"

Same thing, differant methods. The travel still sucks ass. *Jack puts his hand in his coat pocket.* If you wanna play again, drop by Portobello Road. It's where I do most of my business nowadays. I ain't one to fight unless I get caught up in messes like this, so don't go expecting me to rake your ass from the coals anymore, you hear?

"I get it, but i'm glad for your help" Hat Adult smiles as she puts the hourglass away, now she needed to find Hat Girl and give her the hourglass

Good. The I'll be going. Catch you around, Hatty. I wish ya luck in your endeavours. *Jack walks off, taking the coins, showing a tails, from his pocket.* I suppose being nice is good at times. Heh heh heh.
