Night's Silver Kiss

Chapter 3

 

 

“…Cause I don't know, if I can trust you. I don't understand what you want from me…” That song. I've heard it five times already since I came to this town. They call it Incubus. It's December 23, 2007. I'm now 18 years old. Another birthday gone in a town I barley know.

When I got here, I saw an ad for a bar somewhere in the city. Since I haven't had a drink in a while, I decided to check it out. On my way to the bar, kids laughed and played about in the streets. One even made fun of me for carrying around a sword. The Knight sword, but I didn't think much of him. But I thought, maybe I could find a place to live here, and finally settle down. Start a new life.

*Slap!* I heard a loud slap from inside an alleyway. Then as I came closer and closer. I could hear a man talking angrily to a girl.

“Listen bitch! You know you have to pay up; it's the end of the month. Now, where's my money?!”

“I-I don't know. I don't have much this month. The guys here don't seem to be interested in me that much anymore…”

“You don't have the money? Bullshit!”*Slap! Slap!* “If you don't get the money, I'm going to turn you over to Tsu…” I decided to step in.

“Sir, I don't think she likes being hit and yelled at. So please, step away from the girl.”

“Who the hell are you to butt into other people's business? Back the fuck off Fag! I got some business with this slut to settle with.”*Slap Slap*

“Hey! I said stop!” just then I pulled out my sword. *Shwing* A glare flashed in his eye, which made him back away from the girl. Just then he took out a gun hidden in his jacket, and aimed it at me.

*Bang! Bang!* Two shots were fired at me. And with speed I have only seen in cartoons, *Shwing! Shwing!*, both shots stopped with the swift of my sword.

“It's my turn now!” I ran towards him. “Ahhh!!!” *Shwing!* One slash stunned him. Although I did not hit him, his gun broke into two.

“What-What happened? Ah! You're freaking me out man!” he sped off into the alley. *Click…*, the sound of my sword going into its case echoed through the streets.

“Ma'am, are you ok? The man left, everything's ok now. You don't have to be afraid.”

*Sniff Sniff*, “You shouldn't have done that. Now my master is going to punish me. Just leave and never come here again!!” With that she shoved me and ran off. As confused as I was, I followed her with my eyes and saw the bar that was advertised on the flier that I saw when I first came into this city. With nothing else to do, I went in and ordered a Martini.

I let out a sigh*Why do I help people when they don't ever want it, even though they need it? Why must I do the right thing? **Sip* Just as I was enjoying my drink, I over heard a group of men talking to some girls. About 17 or 18, around my age. They were talking about a…whorehouse?!

“So you ladies interested? You work for Tsumaru, he'll make it worth you while.”

“Well, since you put it that way, we'll check it out and see if we like it or not.” *Can it be?! Is it really him they mentioned?!* As the thought continued to run through my mind, I saw the two guys with the two girls leave the bar. I had to find out if it was who I feared. If it was truly Fai Tsumaru, then I feared for us all.
