Read and review. Or don't. I don't care-.-

It was the dead of night in Tokyo. Where you could hear traffic with its endless noise making. Where small neighborhoods are quiet and they could hear the sound of traffic from a distance.

Somewhere around Shinjuku, a small apartment complex had its lights bright from inside each room it had. A middle aged man came walking up to his apartment room number when he suddenly spotted something. Or in this case, someone.

A young girl in her teens was lying across the ground in front of the door next to his room unconscious. She wore dark clothing, but had on grey converse. Her hair was a dark chocolate brown and her skin was lightly tanned.

The man gasped and ran over to the girl to shake her awake. "Hey, kid! Are you alright!" When she didn't stir, he shook her harder. "Kid! Kid!"

His yelling had apparently woken up one of his neighbors, which was a young woman. She glared at him drowsily and asked, "What's going on?"

The man turned to his neighbor in distress. "Call an ambulance! And be quick about it! This girl needs help!"

Upon seeing the girl in his arms, the woman became alarmed and went inside to call 911. The man lightly smacked the girls face to wake her up, but to no avail. She looked deathly pale in her condition. Her rose colored cheeks were fading, making her seem like she was close to death. The woman came out with her phone in her hand and looked worriedly at the girl.

"We have an emergency. There's an unconscious girl here in the Shinjuku apartment complex... Her condition? Well, she's looking pale and she's close to dying! Thank you, please hurry!" The woman hung up and walked to her neighbor. "The ambulance will be here shortly." The man didn't seem to pay attention to her as he kept his eyes focused on the girl. "What's wrong?"

"This girl," he said. "I've seen her before. She was walking near an alley in the city and some guy came out from the shadows and shoved some cloth in her face. She started struggling until she passed out and he took her away. I ran to the alley to see if I could help her, but they were already gone."

"And he just left her here?" the woman asked in astonishment.

"Probably..."

The woman looked down at the girl in pity. Why would anyone want to kidnap a young girl like her? If she heard correctly, this girl had just arrived here in Japan from America. She had such a small body, it made her look no older than sixteen.

"Chief, we got a report saying that a girl was found lying on the ground unconscious in front of one of the rooms of the Shinjuku apartment complex," Saitou said. "She was last seen being kidnapped by a man in the shadows of an alley. Her neighbor tried to help her out, but they were already gone. It wasn't until after midnight that he had found her on her doorstep and got another one of his neighbors to call an ambulance. He also saw the man shove some cloth in her face and the doctors believed that it was filled with chloroform."

Kirihara paid attention to the report with concern. "Did the girls neighbor describe the man who kidnapped her?"

"He said he looked like a man in his mid-thirties with a green army jacket and grey khakis with brown combat boots."

"And the girl?"

"Dark brown hair, lightly tanned skin, dark clothes, and in her teens. The doctors did some examination onto her body, and they found no signs of her ever being molested while she was unconscious."

"Do you have any more information about her?"

Saitou took out a file and handed it to Kirihara, who opened it to see the picture of the girl.

"Katelyn Miranda Mier. Age: eighteen. She's an exchange student from the U.S., and she just arrived here this morning. She was offered a scholarship here in Tokyo and was trying to settle down in the Shinjuku apartment complex. It's a special school for students with autism. She was diagnosed with it at the age of two, but she's seems to be good at taking care of herself."

"Was she ever accompanied by anyone?"

"No, not that I know of. We've also got another witness saying that they saw her being carried around by her abductor. They saw him glowing and he walked through the walls. I think she was kidnapped by a contractor."

Kirihara clenched her hands. "Did they find any other signs of physical assault?"

"No, however, they did find a small bruise onto her right arm. They say it was from a needle. I'm not sure what they did to that girl, but whatever it is, it could be bad."

"Does her family know about this?"

"The CIA is trying to keep this case a secret, Chief. I don't think her family's going to find out any time soon..."

Kirihara looked down at Katelyn's picture, and she couldn't help but think that she looked a little too young to be eighteen. "She looks a little younger, don't you think?"

"She had just turned eighteen a month ago. But other than that, yeah..."

"Kidnapped?"

"Yeah, intel says that this kid got abducted last night and was left at her doorstep," Huang said. "Apparently, they're trying to find a new way to make a contractor."

"Make a new contractor?" Mao said. "Why would they want to make a new contractor?"

"See the way they were trying to make this work is that if a contractor gives a human being their blood, they could develop their powers without having any problems. They probably thought that this kid would be a perfect test subject, but she probably would've tried to fight back, so they had to knock her out to do it. Poor kid."

"Since when did you ever give anybody any sympathy?" Hei asked.

"I'm only taking pity on her because she might end up like one of you freaks!"

Hei didn't seem phased by his reply and just ignored it. "So what do they want us to do?"

"Just keep an eye on her and see if anything happens. If what those contractors did to her was successful, than the Syndicate won't have any choice but to put her on lock down."

Katelyn walked out of the hospital and waved to the nurses and thanked them for helping her before putting her black sweater on and walking to her apartment. As she walked down the streets, she was trying to register what had happened last night. She remembered being caught from behind, but other than that, the rest was a blur. Next thing she knew, she was at the hospital, having been told that her neighbor, Satoshi, had found her unconscious. That was oddly nice of her neighbor, even if she didn't really know him.

The teen sighed in anguish. Great, she had only been in Japan for a day, and something like this had to happen? I bet her dad will be really happy to know that coming here for a scholarship by herself wasn't a good idea.

As she walked up to her room, her other neighbor, Kyoko, opened her door and gave the girl a concerned look.

"How are you feeling?" she asked.

"Better," Katelyn replied. "Thanks for calling 911. If you guys hadn't have found me, I probably would've been dead."

Kyoko smiled at the teen. "I'm glad you're feeling alright. Would you like some company?"

The teen shook her head. "Nah, I think I need to be alone for a bit. I'm trying to register all of this, and I think it might stress me out. Thanks anyway."

"Alright..."

Katelyn unlocked her door and waved at her neighbor before walking inside. She exhales a deep, exhausted sigh as she pulled off her sweater, threw on the coat rack and fell on top of the couch. Today was not her day.

"Sir, I'd like your permission to ask Katelyn Miranda Mier about her abduction," Kirihara said to her father.

Her dad was a little surprised, but he frowned. "Misaki, that girl is trying to recover from all of it, and you want to ask her questions now of all times? Did you forget about her-"

"I'm well aware of that, Dad, but she was kidnapped by a contractor! I doubt she's even aware of their existence. Whatever they did to her was obviously meant for something serious. What if they injected her with some type of poisoning?"

"The doctors say she's fine, Misaki. If she was injected with poison, they would've performed an operation on her immediately."

"Sir, if a contractor kidnapped her, then that means that they are up to something, and I'm afraid it might endanger her life..."

Her stared at her long and hard before he sighed. "Alright, but try not to be so rash with her. She's a very fragile child."

Katelyn sat down in the chair with her eyes trained to the table and rubbing her hands together underneath in anxiousness. This was a habit of hers when she was young, and she still did this today. Kono and Saitou sat on her opposite and gave her looks of concern.

"Miss Mier, do you know why we called you here?" Saitou asked, clearing his throat.

Katelyn looked up for a short second before looking back. "To... to investigate?"

Saitou nodded. "Yes, to investigate. It concerns the night of your abduction, and we want to ask you a few questions. Is that alright with you?"

"I... guess..."

Saitou cleared his throat again before continuing. "Alright, let's start from the beginning. When did you first leave the United States?"

Katelyn thought about it for a second. "Three days ago. I've never been on a plane for that long before, really. It still kinda feels like I had just left yesterday. I arrived here at about nine in the morning. It's funny how I even remember that, I don't usually keep track of time."

"Yeah, I can imagine. When did you first try to settle down once you finally came here?"

"Hmmm... Like somewhere around noon. They said that they found an apartment I can settle into once I came here. After I had gotten all of my stuff unpacked, I took a tour around the city."

Saitou nodded. "Do you think you can tell us what happened throughout your abduction?"

Katelyns breathing had stopped and her hands started to sweat as she continued to rub them together.

"Miss Mier...?"

Kono looked down underneath the table and saw her fondling with her hands before he let out a small smile. "Looks like someone's a little nervous..."

Katelyn flinched and squeezed her hands together in fear. Saitou glared at the cop.

"C'mon, Kono, we're supposed to be helping her, not scaring her!"

"Sorry, man..."

The teen trembled as she felt vulnerable under their care. "Can I leave...?"

They looked at the teen before Saitou replied. "No, I'm sorry, but we still have more questions about last ni-"

"Look, I don't remember shit from last night, alright!" the teen shouted. She soon calmed down when she realized her tone of words, but did not apologize.

Kirihara watched this from another room and decided to intervene.

"Alright, I need you two to get out," she said as she opened the door. "I'll speak with her myself." She grabbed the two men and threw them out of the room before they had a chance to say anything. As she closed the door, she looked at the teen, who still kept her gaze down at the table, before walking over to her. "How are you feeling today, Miss Mier?"

Katelyn began to relax as she knew that she was with another woman. "I'm doing okay, I guess..."

Kirihara nodded before taking a seat. "My apologies for the way my coworkers acted towards you."

"It's okay. Look, I know you're trying to help me, but..."

"But what?"

Katelyns hands began to tremble, not knowing exactly what to say. "I just..."

Kirihara leaned forward and touched the teens hands. "I know you're scared right now, Katelyn, but there's no need to be afraid of anybody here. You didn't do anything wrong. All we want you to do is tell us what you remember from last night, okay?"

Katelyns trembling hands loosened their grip on each other as she couldn't help but ask, "Does my family know about this?"

Kirihara shook her head. "No. The CIA is trying to keep this case under raps."

Katelyn sighed in relief. "Good..."

The older woman smiled. "You think you can tell me what happened last night?"

The teen nodded. "I remember struggling to get out of this mans iron grip he had on me. The smell from that cloth made me pass out before I could continue to struggle..." She thought long and hard about what she had saw throughout her abduction. "And I remember waking up maybe three or four hours later, but my eyelids were barely opening and everything was a blur. I could tell that I was lying on a soft bed when I felt my back laying down. I looked around the blurry place and it was dark. When I looked down at my arm, there was this red line attached to my arm and it hurt. My eyes started to follow where the red line would end, and it looked like a bag with some red liquid. I only stayed awake for like a minute before I passed out again. Then the next thing I knew, I woke up in the hospital..."

Kirihara stared long and hard as she had listened to the teens story. "Can you remember anything else after that?"

Katelyn shook her head.

"Tell me, Katelyn, are you aware of the existence of contractors?"

The teen looked at the older woman in confusion. "What's a contractor?"

Kirihara shook her head. "Never mind. That's all we wanted to know."

"So can I leave now?"

"Yes, you can leave."

Katelyn smiled as she gathered her things and got up from the chair she sat in.

"Would you like us to escort you home?"

"That would be nice. Thank you."

Kirihara smiled as she lead the teen out of the room.

"Sorry for the scare we gave you back there, Katelyn," Saitou said as they drove to her apartment.

Katelyn shook her head. "It's no big deal. I just have some anxiety issues."

"We could tell," Kono said before Saitou punched him in the gut. "What?"

Katelyn laughed, making the two men smile.

As they pulled up to her apartment, Katelyn grabbed her stuff as Kono asked, "So do you have a boyfriend?"

The teen gave him a look that said 'are you for real?' before opening the door and closing it. Saitou gave him a look.

"What the hell was that about?"

Kono raised his hands in defense. "I was just asking."

Saitou sighed before he started driving away.

Katelyn walked up to her door, but what she saw was something she least expected. A case was left in front of her doorstep, what was in it she didn't know. She picked it up, looked at it questioningly, before opening her door and going inside.

In the dead of midnight, Hei loomed over the girls apartment window and watched her as she sent an e-mail to her family, telling them that she was alright. The teen couldn't help but feel like she was being watched and she looked out the window behind her. Sighing, she silently decided that she needed air and got up to grab her sweater before heading out. Hei quietly followed her as she headed off towards the city.

Katelyn would turn around in alarm as she heard footsteps following her, while Hei stayed clear out of her sight. She started getting scared as she thought that the same man would come for her again and unconsciously broke into a run, making the Black Reaper run after her.

She did her best to lose him, but he was faster than her. Eventually, she was able to lose him after running into the city. Katelyn sighed in relief until she bumps into someone and she fell to the ground. She looked up to glare at someone, but she saw that it was only Saitou and got up to dust herself off.

"Katelyn, what're you doing here?" he asked.

The teen smiled sheepishly. "I just felt a little anxious and I needed to get out for a bit."

Saitou smiled at her. "How about I get you something to eat?"

"You don't have to..."

"It'll be my treat."

"Um, okay..."

The teen looked back behind her before following the cop to a fast food joint.

Hei could only watch the girl as she silently checked to see who was supposedly stalking her. He didn't know why, but some part of him thought she was cute.

"Hey, Saitou, can I just have my meal to go?" she asked, making the older male confused. "I just want to get home as quickly as possible."

He was still confused, but he nodded none the les. "Alright, get her a burger to go."

Once he paid for her dinner, she silently thanked him before stepping out and walking back to her apartment. It didn't take her long to get back, but once she made it for the door, she caught a glimpse of a man in a mask that had a supposed smile and a purple lightning bolt. She stared in silent fear before she quickly grabbed the doorknob and ran back inside.

"Seems like you gave her quite the scare," Mao said, walking up to Hei.

"How old is she?" he asked.

"She just turned eighteen a month ago. Why the sudden interest?"

"She seemed a little anxious when I started following her. It was... kinda cute."

"Have you taken a sudden liking to her?"

Hei just scoffed. "Don't be ridiculous. I don't know her well enough to like her."

Mao just watched the teens door. "You never know..."

"You ran into her last night? What was she doing out so late at night?" Kirihara asked.

"She told me she felt anxious and that she wanted to go out for a bit," Saitou responded.

"That's not good, Saitou. What if her abductors try to take her again?"

"We're keeping a good eye on her, Chief."

Kirihara didn't know why, but she couldn't help but feel worried for the girls safety. She knew a kidnapped victim wouldn't be that much of a deal, but this girl was kidnapped by a contractor. So this victim was in fact a big deal.

Katelyn figured it was high time that she told someone about who was following her last night.

"You think about going out at night again?" a stranger asked.

Katelyn was startled, but she nodded. "Yeah, but how would you know that?"

"The fear in your eyes. A lot of people are afraid to go out at night, because of the rumours..." The girl leaned forward as he leaned toward her. "Rumours of the Black Reaper..."

Katelyn blinked in confusion. "Who's the Black Reaper?"

"A tall dark man in black clothes with a smiling mask. He comes out at night hunting for contractors and criminals. They say he's a contractor as well."

"What's a contract-"

Just as she was about to ask, someone slammed down their cup.

"I think you've said enough, buddy," a short old man said.

He had brown hair that was covered by a hat, which Katelyn figured was because he was bald, khaki pants, dress shoes, and a black coat covering an orange shirt with a grey vest.

"Take my advice, kid, and don't listen to this drunken kook."

"Hey, I ain't drunk!"

With that, the old man left. Katelyn was a bit confused. What on earth was a freaking contractor!?

"Oh, and if you ever think about telling anybody about that Black Reaper following you, just forget about it. Keep it to yourself..."

The girl looked as the man walked away again, never noticing that he was still standing there. How did he know who was following her last night?

As she walked around the city at night and headed straight back to her apartment, she caught sight of the Black Reaper behind her and started running again until she got to her door. She fondled in her bag to look for her keys as the Black Reaper started slowly walking towards her. Once she found them, Katelyn quickly unlocked her door and ran inside when she opened it before slamming it shut.

"Chief, PANDORA has found frightening results of Katelyns condition when she was finally found," Otsuka said.

"What?"

Katelyn took off her sweater as she walked over to her bed and layed down and stared at the cieling.

"They say that during her abduction, she was injected with the blood of a contractor."

"A contractors blood!?"

The girl stared at the cieling fan as it spun around and she started sweating slightly.

"Yes. Apparently, they were trying to find a way to make a new contractor by injecting their blood into a human being so that they could develope their powers. They're not sure if it will work, but if it does..."

Kirihara looked down gravely. "Then Katelyn will become a contractor..."

Within the young teens eyes, her pupils began to turn red.
