Chapter 4

"When can I see him?" It was a day later, she wasn't able to sleep when women, former beaten women kept stopping by and giving her cakes and muffins. She shouted he didn't mean to hurt her. But they all figured she was in denial, even the sheriff. They even locked her in her room, thinking she'd do anything to get her `lover' out. She would too, but it was driving her nuts. She didn't wanna hurt anyone, but decided enough was enough.

"That's it," She growled, and then with a swift move, she kicked the door down, sending two men onto their stomachs, and an early sleep. She looked at them, and rolled her eyes in complete frustration. She ran down the hall, and then realized she needed a disguise. She reached in a room, and grabbed a hooded green robe. Flipping it over her body, she went outside.

"But I didn't do ANYTHING!" Tasuki screamed at the sheriff who was playing cards a few feet from his cell. Tasuki leaning from his bared cage, then sighed after hours of pleading. He told them why they fought, and how she kicked his ass. But they didn't believe him, said they had witnesses and that he'd never touch another female in his lifetime. It had been at least 19 hours of this steaming, stinky cell. Filled with only him.

Tasuki spent most of his time thinking Talia left him for dead, being that he was suppose to be killed in 2 hours. Many men and women, throwing vegetables and such visited him. But only to yell and shout, after the third person, he stopped caring.

Talia walked over the street, and saw a huge line, she by passed most of the line, and noticed it was a protest to kill the jailed one now.

"Tasuki," She muttered, and then ran in front of the line. She saw him, in a cell, alone with people shouting at him. She pushed her way in, and turned to the sheriff. "Let me speak to my brother please," She pretended to be crying and begged him. He nodded his head and waved the others out. She walked over to the cell, and Tasuki sighed heavily believing she was another protester. She leaned in and looked up. His face lighted up as he ran to the bars. "Hello brother," She told him.

"Oh sister!" He gave a fake shout in hope. She leaned in.

"I'm so sorry,"

"You'd better be." He whispered.

"Not my fault, you asked for it." He gave her a crossed look, and she understood it was a bad time to argue. He leaned towards her and spoke.

"They're planning to hang me in about, umm 10 minutes. The protestors want me killed ASAP." He said in a small cheerful tone. She rolled her eyes then nodded her head. She'd get him out.

"Their gunna kill me Talia!" He tried to make her seem more urgent about it. She leaned into the bar and began.

"No they're not Tasuki. Just calm down, relax, be a good prisoner." Be he wasn't smiling. His face was concerning, Talia had to get him out, there was no question.

Talia watched him lower his head slightly while gripping the bars, which her head was between. She took her hand, lifted his solemn face. Their eyes caught one another's gaze. It was hard to resist, so they didn't, Tasuki's normal attitude was waning, and Talia was troubled. She turned her head slightly, as he leaned in and kissed her. A real kiss. The undying substance Tasuki and Talia had been fighting ever since she entered the Suzuki's family. After moments of pure passion, Tasuki pulled back slightly then saw the sweet promising tone Talia had, but before she walked away, she kissed him again. She didn't want too, but she did release his lips, his face seemed confused as to why she walked away. He didn't want it to end, though he'd never admit it.

Dashing out of the jail, she kept her face covered when she heard a scream.

"SHE'S GONE!"

"Great they noticed." Talia mumbled while trying to figure out what to do. She lifted her hood brief moment, and saw a weaponry shop. She knew what to do now.
