I think I might have screwed this one up. I sometimes do that.


"Why are we doing this captain?" Sara asked me. I grinned stupidly and opened Mikami's door to his office.

"It's good for missions and I heard there's a new guy in the first brigade." I answered still grinning.

"You're one crazy chick." Jake answered. I stuck my tongue out at him. I peeked around the corner of the door. Sara and Jake followed my lead.

"Usagi?" vice-captain Shikibu's voice said. It was hard to see anyone without getting caught.

"No, Usaki." A blond said. There was no emotion on his face, a true 'doll' if you ask me. I started to crumble under the weight on top of me. The door slammed open even more due to that idiot Jake.

"Hello Spring!" Mikoshiba said to me. He was bent half way so he stood just a bit over us. I live in the same apartment building as him. So, no way I can avoid him.

"Ah, hello Mikoshiba-san." I said raising my head a bit.

"You three okay?" Shikibu asked us. Sara and Jake got off me and helped me stand.

"Yep!" Sara answered for us. I was going to say 'no not really' but to late now.

"So, this is the new guy. Mind if we borrow him one of these days?" I asked. Said person only tilted his head and stared at me.

"NO!!!" Shikibu yelled grabbing the new guy and pulling him farther away from us. I smiled and kind of laughed.

"It depends on how well your mission is going." Mikami told me. I sighed in regret; our case wasn't ending so well.

"Are they the 47th brigade?" the new guy asked. Sara, Jake and I turned towards him.

"DON'T LUMP US WITH THOSE GUYS USAGI!!!" We yelled. Shock flashed in his eyes for a second.

"Maybe you should introduce yourself." Mikami told me.

"Oh, right. My name's Sakura Spring (First name: Spring, Last name: Sakura) I'm in charge of who goes where in other parts of the Tokkei. Example had you entered not as an executioner you would have been put in my bureau." I said. Mikami sighed and shook his head.

"The bureau that she is in charge of is hunting Doll Hunters and finding out where the really dangerous condemned criminals are. Those criminals are then handed to the third, second and first brigades." Mikami explained even further.

"So you're the intelligence department for the Tokkei." Usaki said. His teammates laughed a little and I was forced to think he is an idiot despite his top grades at the Tokkei Academy.

"Nope, we work directly under the Minister of Justice." Sara said. Saving me the trouble of talking.

"We answer only to the Minister of Justice and no one else. Well, except Spring's God-father." Jake added. I proceeded to strangle him until Igarashi walked in.

"Oh? I see that the first brigade's little hole has finally been filled…" He said. The new guy nodded. My grip on Jake's neck grew tighter when I saw Igarashi. It only took one word from Mikoshiba to set off an argument. In the end they punched each other.

"Just get on with your report. Jeez, you piss me off." I said.

"Yes almighty eighteen year old captain." Igarashi said. I smiled with satisfaction knowing I managed to piss him off even more. The condemned criminal number1632, Kunikida Kouhei missed his hearing. I remember that case; my team was the first to investigate it. Said criminal killed everybody in a club and is missing now.

"I remember now!" Jake said out loud. Sara started to look a bit green. The first brigade looked at us in surprise.

"Two of the officers guarding the crime scene have been murdered. The murder weapon was the same type of knife used in the other killings." Igarashi added. My theory just shot through the roof when I heard this.

"Spring how about you join the first brigade on this one." Mikami said. I nodded; going with them meant I was visiting the crime scene again. Just the thought made my stomach flip in several directions.

"If I lose my lunch you owe me dinner Shouta." I said walking out. Said person sighed, whenever I called him Shouta it meant I was serious about the whole dinner thing. I waited outside for them with the car. I just turned eighteen and because I'm always busy I haven't had time to go get my drivers license.

"It smells like someone's stuffy basement…" someone said when we were in the club. I stood by the doorway and noticed that something seemed off about this place. I noticed the door in the back it was slightly open. I took the gun I had on me off safe. I knew Mikoshiba noticed it too. Same with Shikibu, the only one not to notice it was the newbie.

Then again he was probably trying to keep his own lunch down or he it was because he was now reading the report. They proceeded back to the place where the numbers 1100 were written on the wall. If the newbie had good eyes he could tell that it was Doll written backwards. Mikoshiba shouted that they were pulling out. I watched as the back door opened even more. I smiled just a bit; the newbie had no idea what was coming.

Toudou Usaki ranked first in everything. I guess they no longer teach how to spot out of place things at the academy. Cause if they did then the guy would have noticed a doll hunter behind them. One got behind Shikibu, lucky us there are four people here. Even though the Doll Hunters out number us.

"Looks like a Doll Cleaner is here too." One of them said. I dodged the knife he swung at me. I landed my palm under his chin hoping I broke his jaw or at least fractured it. It's so hard to tell because they were those goddamn masks all the fuckin time!! I shot him in the chest and his partner in the arm. Mikoshiba managed to get a sort of confession out of one of them.

"Damn them! And they call you guys the Dolls. As far as I'm concerned they are more like dolls than anything else. Plus they're fuckin crimes are becoming more and more easier to figure out! Damn them!" I shouted when I was outside. Being covered in blood didn't help me at all. Another jacket goes into the fireplace. I sighed; I really need to stop wearing normal clothes to work. Mikoshiba was pouting and told the newbie something but I could tell he wasn't listening.

"I must apologize." Usaki said bowing. Mikoshiba and Shikibu stared at him in confusion. Even I had to stare at him, the guy had no reason to apologize for anything. Well, maybe not catching the whole Doll Hunter thing maybe back at the office. Mikoshiba didn't catch it either until the very end. No wonder he was pouting like a child.

"I'm sorry for all the impertinent things I said to you when I didn't even understand the situation." Usaki said. I bit my bottom lip to hold back a laugh. Eventually Mikoshiba gave him his first brigade badge and they shook hands. I started to get the feeling someone was watching us. Eventually I shrugged it off as nothing.

I also got the feeling that something bad was going to happen. You know when a cup breaks before you touch it. So, you think it was from the heat or something. It was that type of feeling. The feeling like everything that I knew was going to end in split moment.


This is a failure! Review if you don't think it is. Still review if it is.
