Witch Hunter Robin Fan Fiction ❯ A new life ❯ A new morning ( Chapter 4 )

A new morning

 

Adrianna woke up the next day at 8 a.m. One look around and she remembered where she was. Still a little groggy, she got up, took her clothes and head towards the bathroom. After the shower, she was dressed in her jeans, black tank top and tennis shoes. She never understood how her sister could live by wearing that black long dress. She always used to tease her about how one night she would be confused with a black wall or how one day she would become a nun. After Adrianna left the room, she found out that the living room was empty, so she decided to put on some music and cook some breakfast. She scanned her enormous collection of music, and found the CD she was looking for: Aimee Allens, Id start a revolution if I could get up in the morning. It was her favorite music. Girl power rock. She put some really black coffee for Amon, she knew that he would have a hangover. She cooked some scrambled eggs and bacon. Se took a plate and looked for a spoon. She went through the drawers but found nothing but those ugly chopsticks. Looking a little more, she finally found what she was looking for, a spoon! She sat down in front of the table and began to eat. At 10 a.m. Amon came out his room, looking a little sleepy.

“Morning!” Anna said.

“Hi. Do you usually have the habit of putting really loud music so early?”

“Yes I do, but I have been listening to this CD and I decided to turn the music up to wake you up. In the coffee maker there is some coffee for the always fun hangover.”

“Uhm, thanks”

Adrianna went to her room, turned off the radio and took her laptop, sitting in the living room, and opening her messenger and the media player. Meanwhile Amon stood on the kitchen, drinking his coffee. Some minutes passed, when a phone began to rang.

“Amon, I think that is your phone.”

“He turned to see his cell phone ringing. He picked it up and answered.

“Yeah?”

“Amon, sorry to bother you on your day off, but we have a case and the chief said that the replacement could be useful. So he told me to call you both.”

“Ok we will be there soon.”

Amon turned around to fin Adrianna with her black coat on and standing next to the door. He went to his room, showered and changed really fast and both headed to STN-J.

----------------------------- -----------------------------------

Miho, Yurika, Haruto and Michael were sitting together next to Michaels work station.

“Please, just tell us if you found something about this new recruit!” Doujima begged

“I told ya, I just called Amon to pick her up on the airport and then I left! I dont have to stay here all night remember?”

“But you must have found out something!” Sakaki said

“Well, all I know is that the replacement is from Costa Rica, is 20 years old and is a girl.”

“So you knew something!” They all three said in unison.

Suddenly the elevator doors opened and Amon got out of it. Four heads turned to see the person standing behind him. The girl took out her sun glasses and four jaws fell to the floor. Before them there was the exact replica of the girl that was their partner 8 months ago. Adrianna stood there, feeling very uncomfortable. Finally, Amon broke the silence:

“What are you guys staring at?”

“Amon, she is just like…” Miho said.

“Yes, yes I know!” A very upset Adrianna said, “I know that I look like Robin, I am her older sister, for Gods sake! We were related and this whole “Staring-at-her-just-because-of-that is creeping me out! You guys can call me Anna, for a short. So, could we please now move over that subject?”

Four very embarrassed faces looked into the ground. Finally Miho broke the silence:

“Yes, I think we can move on. I am Miho Karasuma.”

“I am Yurika Doujima, the rookie in here is Haruto Sakaki and the computer geek is Michael Lee.”

“Hey, I am not a rookie!”

“And I am not a Geek!”

Adrianna laughed at the scene before her. Two very mad guys sending killing glares at the blondie. If looks could kill she thought. Karasuma moved over her.

“If you want I can show you your work station.”

“Yeah, thanks. And look, I am sorry for freaking out like that, its just that I miss my sister a lot and the looks you gave me made me feel like I was gonna be compared to her.”

“Its Ok. When did you arrived?”

“At midnight. Amon picked me up and then we came to meet the boss and finally we went to his place.”

“You are staying at his apartment?”

“Yeah, I dont care a lot. Back in STN-CR all the group of hunters shared one house. We were six, so the house was pretty big.”

“I think that I can help you adjust to our hunting technique. We dont kill, we capture. Now what we use is this” she said, holding a red liquid bullet, “this is a drug that knocks the witches out and lets us detain them in a secure facility, with cells designed against most of their abilities.”

Miho gave Adrianna two tranquilizer guns. Amon was calling them all to the briefing meeting before the hunt. They all sat in front of the screens.

“Akira Brahe. 39 years old. His craft is to control and levitate the earth. We found a corpse last night, crushed by two big rocks. You know the routine: Knock them before they Knock you. Doujima and Karasuma will go on the left. Sakaki will go on the right and Anna and me will go on the front. Questions?”

All of them shook their heads and left to the first hunt of the day.
