AN: Lots of people wanted this sequel, so I hope it turns out ok. I don't want it to be like most movies, where the sequel is worse than the first movie. But hey, I'm giving it my best shot. Ballerina Homework is doing really bad a far as people reading it goes, so it's going off the list soon. sigh No one liked my homework! haha
Disclaimer: If I owned Cyborg 009I wouldn't be writing fanfictions. Simple logic people COME ON! (lol)
009 woke up to find himself lying on the couch in the Kazumi Beach House. 003 was against him, curled up into a delicate ball. She still slept silently. For the longest time he just stared at the beautiful form that was Françoise. He brushed some loose strands of golden hair away from her eyes. She stirred a little and opened them.
"I'm sorry, did I wake you?" he asked softly. She shook her head slightly and smiled. He smiled back and hugged her close. "Good." He could feel her chest rise and fall as she breathed. Content was the only thing she could feel right now besides happiness. 009 kissed the top of her head and stroked her back, thinking on what he had heard a few weeks ago:
"Hey guys come quickly!" 004 called from the living room. Most everyone in the house came and crowded around the television. A large headline scrolled across the screen as the reporter spoke.
"A strange thing has been discovered today, and a sad discovery it is. Scientist Dr. Brock Keller has gone missing. No one knows what could have happened to him. Everyone in association with the doctor has been questioned, and all his dwelling and work places searched. No evidence can be found, not even a single fingerprint that is not his own. Police and investigators are at a loss as to how they are going continue their search, with no clues, or anything to go off of. Chief Dillan Vincent told reporters that 'The clues have gone cold before they were even found.' Back to you Wane."
"Do you think it's him?" 008 asked no one in particular.
"Well who else could it be. No many people can take someone with out leaving any evidence or sign of struggle." 004 replied.
"Maybe there wasn't a struggle." 003 suggested. Dr. Gilmore walked closer to the television.
"No I don't think he would have gone willingly if it was Black Ghost. I knew him. In fact when Black Ghost hired me I tried to get him to come with me, thinking that it was a marvelous opportunity. He refused saying that 'I have a feeling that it's not a good idea. Go ahead Isaac. I'm fine where I am.' I found out too late that he was right.' The team sat in silence for a while.
"I say we just wait until something else out of the ordinary happens. For all we know it was just a regular psychopath who kidnaps people and that person just happened to be a scientist." 002 sighed. Some of them nodded and left the room, to continue whatever they had been doing before the odd announcement appeared. 004, 009, and 003 all stayed and stared intently into the screen, just waiting for something else to point in the direction of Black Ghost…
009 sighed and closed his eyes again. He couldn't help but dwell on that headline. It had been a few weeks ago, but still. It was all different because he knew that Scarl had gotten away. It wasn't like all the other times where he thought he was dead, but just came back somehow. No, he had watched him escape with his own eyes. At least no major damage had been done to his friends. He opened his eyes and looked at 003 once more. She still breathed steadily and calmly. He didn't know why, but somehow that gave him confidence and sureness that everything would be ok. 'Scarl I know you're out there. I promise you that I will hunt you down at the very first sign you give me.'
"I promise." 003 looked up at him.
"Promise what?" 009 drew her even closer and kissed her.
"That I'll never let you go."
Yes, yes It's short. But if you've read some of my other stories, you know I like to test the waters. Anyways, I'm so happy because I now own every manga from 1-10 of Cyborg 009. I won't spoil the ending for you (though you most likely already know it) lol.
