Chapter Eight:

Hold up!

Kita cringed upon hearing Miru’s voice. Just her luck. Miru ran up to Kita, half frightening the black haired girl. Miru obviously didn’t know that less was more as far as make-up went. the blonde had cut her hair into a short style that was reminiscent of Kita’s and streaked her hair black. She was wearing quite a bit of makeup, mostly in pink and red. Kita shivered, hoping that no one saw her walking down the dark allies and mistook her for Miru.

"Hello Kita." The blonde looked around as if expecting someone else to be there. "Where’s Shuuichi?" Kita blinked. "Why would I know?" Miru flashed a false smile. "Because, you spend allot of time with him." Kita shook her head and crossed the street when the crossing signal read ‘walk.’ She hoped she’d be luckily and Miru would decide to leave her alone. Unfortunately luck wasn’t on her side. The blonde followed Kita across and down the street, talking in that preppy manner of hers. Miru stopped suddenly and pulled Kita with her. "Oh! Look at that dress!" The blonde said pointing at the window of a large shop. In it was a pale pink dress that hid nearly nothing, Kita cringed at the thought of it. She did well enough in her turtle neck shirts and slightly baggy pants.

Kita wish she’d had time to inform Miru of that, but sadly the blonde dragged Kita into the store. Kita figured there were alternate motivations for bringing her into such a store.

As they wandered the store Kita wondered why she didn’t just walk back out. Part of her told her to stay put, something was going to happen. Just as Miru had picked out dresses for the two of them to try on fate favored Kita. A loud voice yelled out commands and six men dressed in black with hand guns rushed in. Even before "Get down and no one will get hurt." Was yelled people were dropping to the ground to avoid being shot. Kita was going to rush forward and attack the men but was tripped by a young girl with platinum hair that had dropped to the ground a mere millisecond prior. At least she was away from Miru.

"Are you okay?" A sugar-sweet voice asked. Kita looked back at the girl that had accidentally tripped her. Ice blue eyes shown from behind long, platinum colored bangs that help frame a pale face with soft features. Judging by this girl’s accent and features she wasn’t Japanese at all but instead an American. Kita nodded before the gun toteing men came and rounded the two of them up with the other’s in the store, leading them to a back room.

When they arrived in the room they were directed to sit quietly and not to ‘do anything stupid.’ That was probably where they went wrong. To Kita, defense was not a stupid concept. She’d been a bandit in the Makai before her rebirth as a human. Her next moves would be smart in her mind.

Kita got up without anyone noticing, not even the people she sat between realized she’d stood up. Her next moves were a mater of speed and simple calculations. Head for the one’s farthest away from the room.

She darted out the open door, hiding in a display of tall, elegant dresses upon leaving the room. She darted from one display to the next until she reached the man farthest from the room with hostages. She tapped him on the shoulder, turning to face her was his immediate reaction. His second reaction was falling to the ground, out cold from a strong hit to his forehead. One down, five to go.

All but the last two went the same way as the first. All but the leader - a tall burly man with black hair- and who she could only guess were the brains behind the operation - a short girl with dark brown locks and a smug smile- had been alone. These two stuck together.

Kita darted into a display near them. The two turned completely the opposite direction as Kita was in. Kita was about to strike when she cursed the day the world was born. "Kita! She’s gone! Now how am I supposed to steal Shuuichi?!" Why did that annoying slug Miru have to foil everything she did? Whether it be taking a relaxing walk or trying to get out of a dress shop, Miru always in interfered.

The two remaining crooks ran to the room with the hostages, causing most of the room to scream. Kita growled. They were on guard now. How was she supposed to catch them by surprise now?

Kat Had her eyes closed as she walked down the street, right hand held out in front of her. Kat was devining for a concealed aura with quite a bit to hide. She sensed two and decided to go for the nearest one she could. This was leading her to an apartment complex that was familiar to Yuusuke. To be exact, he lived in one of the apartments.

They were soon walking up steps, getting closer and closer to Yuusuke’s apartment, making him nervous. the only person home was his cousin. He hoped she wasn’t the one they were searching for. He had a hard enough time keeping her out of danger as it was.

Kita let out a mild yelp of pain as the burly man tackled her to the ground. Miru had once again foiled her plan. Kita knocked out the woman as she went to find her, thinking Kita was a scared little girl. Never suspecting she was the reason the four others in the group didn’t respond to Miru’s shout. After taking care of the woman, Kita snuck up behind the man about to strike when Miru yelled her name.

Now Kita was being smothered by a man who was far larger than she. Kita managed to take short, shallow breaths as she struggled.

a girl of about sixteen with short, deep brown hair and eyes to match stood up. She was tall, 5’9 to be exact. "Get him!" She scrame, charging forward, followed by most of the people in the room. Kita soon found herself leaned against a wall and the buffalo that had been on top of her, he was covered in bruises from head to toe. Kita looked at the brown haired girl in street clothes and nodded her thanks, feeling queasy.

She felt a suppressed aura near by. But where from?
