Hello nya~! This is my first story posted here so be nice!
"Ne~. How long have we been here?" One of three small girls asked from inside the darkness.
"Let's see…." Another says, clicking on a blackberry, all wincing at the new bright light. The light illuminated their faces as they leaned in to see the time. The left girl, the one who asked, had long, wavy, brunette hair that pooled around her shoulders and ended mid-back. Her pumpkin orange eyes showed tiny curiosity under the bordom. A black hooded jacket and jeans could be seen slightly in the puny light.
"About three hours." Mumbled the middle girl, the one holding the phone. She had short, chin length, dishwater blond hair and sleepy red eyes that glowed like a cats reflective eyes. Her dark red hoody and jeans were easier seen than the ones on the left or right.
"Really? Wow… time sure flies when you're bored." Droned the third. Her shaggy, shorter, ashen white hair gleamed in the dim light. Her obsidian eyes were bored and uncaring. She pulled the hood of her oversized over her eyes to block out the light and fiddled with the end of her jeans until the light faded out by itself, returning them to darkness.
"Here's a good question. Why the hell are we even in here? I mean, it's a safe. I understand everything else in here, but us? What the fuck!" The middle ranted.
"Neko, calm down. They obviously are stupid and probably thought of us as some kind of threat." Stated the third.
"The hell could we have done though Mizuki?" The first argued.
"You know what we could have done Tobi." The third, now Mizuki, argued back. The first, Tobi, dropped the subject and silence returned. A bit of time passes when Neko, the middle girl's, ears twitched in the dark, picking up a faint sound.
"Hey, you guys hear that?" she asked quietly.
"Neko, what ever you hear we-" began Tobi.
"SHH! Listen!" Neko cut off demandingly.
"Yes, Sir Integra." The other two deadpanned while the blond rolled her unseen eyes. They sat in silence once more, ears straining to hear what the middle had heard. Nothing at first, but then, voices were heard. Voices, then shouting and screaming, and after, gunfire.
"Holy shit! We're listening to a robbery/murder in progress! SWEET!" Mizuki cheered. But as soon as she said that, there was no more sound outside the safe. They blindly crawled over to the door and pressed their ears to it, listening intently.
CLANG!
Suddenly the door swung open loudly and the three toppled out unceremonally, squinting as the light hit their eyes.
"I liked the dark better." Mizuki said, hiding under her hood as her eyes adjusted to the light. The presence next to her made her look up at a tall man. He had a long black coat and a wide rimmed hat that failed to tame his messy black hair. His eyes were blue-violet and surprised at the children's sudden appearance, but it quickly turned into a smile.
"Now what do we have here?" He said bending down to Mizuki's level. "What are children doing in a safe?"
"The hell we know. They just picked us up and threw us in there like we were ragdolls!" Tobi ranted. He smiled on amusement.
"That's not language a child should be using." He stated. The girls gave him a blank look.
"You really think we care?" Neko inquired. The man chuckled and shook his head.
"I see dead people." Tobi mused, staring at the obviously dead men littering the warehouse like area. Mizuki smacked her upside the head earning an 'ow!' from her.
"Wow. How'd you do it?" Neko asked excitedly. He gave the smallest girl a curious look.
"Usually one would be afraid after seeing dead bodies. Not ask how it was done." He said, now slightly intrigued. The three glanced at each other before turning back to him.
"We're not normal." Came a chorus reply. He chuckled again and held out his hand to Mizuki.
"I'm Akabane Kuroudo or Dr. Jackle." Kuroudo introduced.
"Itachi Mizuki." She said shaking his much larger hand.
"Yoru Tobi." She nodded at him.
"And I'm Hikari Neko nya~!" The small girl jumped up. "Can I wear your hat?" Kuroudo looked at her in confusion.
"You better give it to her, or she'll just end up stealing it." Mizuki piped in. "It's like a weird fetish of hers."
"HEY!"
"Neko, you have a collection of paperboy hats, beanies, and any other hats you've thought were cool in your room." Tobi blurted out. Any cheer left Neko immediately, leaving her looking like she had just been scolded. Kuroudo watched this little exchange of words. Maybe this job wasn't so bad.
"Well little ones, I'm on a bit of a schedule." Kuroudo sighed standing up. "I'm going to grab something and then take you to a place I know you'll be safe."
"An asylum? No, wait, wrong way around." Neko questioned. Kuroudo simply plopped his hat on her head, earning him a small squeal of delight. He quickly entered the safe to retrieve the item he needed ad left.
"Come along now." He called to the girls, who in turn scurried after him like ducklings.
After a stop somewhere to deposit the item, Kuroudo led the girl to a slightly more rundown part of town.
"The 'Honky Tonk'? Sounds more like a strip club than a café." Mizuki said looking over the empty café.
"I don't think the owner would appreciate that comment." Kuroudo smiled. They walked into the café catching the attention of its occupants.
"Ah! Akabane-san, hello. Oh! Who are they?" Asked the young waitress. He turned and smiled at the black haired girl.
"Hello Natsumi-san. I found these girls locked in a safe on my last job. They are quite interesting, despite their young age." He explained.
"Since when can you handle kids?" Grumbled a man with circular sunglasses.
"Ban! Be nice. The kids don't appear to be hurt, so he must have taken care of them." Argued a blond in a green vest.
"Physically they look fine. But what about mentally, Ginji? Did you think about that?" Ban snapped back.
"What about mentally?" Mizuki instigated. Everyone stared at the ash haired girl.
"We don't even have a mental state to begin with!" Tobi stated. "And neko's the only one who's been clinically dubbed to have a mental problem!" She pointed to the blond who had wandered to a barstool and was now swinging her legs like it was the most fun thing in the world.
"The ADD does things to me…" She sighed, smiling like the 5 year old she looked to be. They gazed at the blond confusedly.
"So, why'd you bring them here?" Ban finally asked.
"I was hoping you could take them in, at least until there is a missing notice or something." Kuroudo smiled, glancing at the man behind the counter. "If you don't mind that is Paul."
"As long as they don't mess up the café, I'm fine with it. There's a spare room up the stairs." Paul pointed to the stairs next to the counter.
"Well, looks like we're stuck here until they come find us, huh?" Mizuki whispered to the other two.
"Yup." They stated in unison.
Well, there's Chapter 1~! I have 2-4 written on paper so you'll be seeing those within the week. I hope everyone liked it! =^.^=
Ciao nya~!
