Hi, I'm Burakku Aisu. Sorry about now saying anything before, its my first time and I'm pretty much a noob. But so far Kisa shot Haru, one of the nicest cousins to her. Well, this is my first fanfic ever, so yea…DON'T BE EVIL!

Chapter 2

Hiro woke up with a groan. Hinata was singing "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" again in her overly high voice. He let out another groan and covered his head with the pillow. It was so damn loud. Hinata was now five and could talk. At first her voice was really adorable, but then it got so annoying when she started singing. Finally, he realized after her fifth repetition, she wasn't going to stop until breakfast. So he got up and pulled on some clothes. They were finally back in Japan. He got back last night, or rather morning, at 2:30 and he didn't get to see Kisa yet. He yawned and walked into the living room. Hinata was sitting in the living room cross legged, singing with a little smile on her face. He smiled slightly and hit her slightly on the head when he passed by her. He decided to go to Kisa's house to say hi. She probably knew he was coming back anyway-he did send a letter to his house in any case. He smiled. He wondered if Kisa looked any different. If her hair in the front was still longer in the front and shorter in the back, if she still had her little stuffed tiger, all of those things. He knocked on Kisa's house, only to see her mother answer it. (A/N: omg I can't remember her name 0.0)

"Oh, Hiro-san!" she said, smiling. Hiro thought the smile seemed kind of nervous, but he put that thought aside. "How are you?"

"I'm fine," Hiro said, returning the smile half-heartedly. "Is Kisa-chan here?"

"…No actually she just left…" she said hesitantly, her smile gone from her face. Then, as though she remembered something she said, "Oh, I'm sorry. Would you like to come in?"

"No, it's okay," he said, wondering why she seemed so reluctant about saying where Kisa was. It was a normal question, wasn't it? "I was thinking of going to town anyway."

"Oh alright then," she said and her strained smile returned to her face. "Be sure to stay away from downtown, though, Hiro-san. There has been quite a lot of…casualties, for lack of a better word." She said dully.

"I'll remember that, thanks," he said. "See you later than."

He thought that since Kisa had left, she was probably in town. Either that, or that stupid girl's place. But he'd like to save Tohru's house as a last resort. He put his hands in his pockets and decided to walk around the town he used to walk in all the time. But the same time he thought, Casualties? All downtowns are dangerous, but why would it be so bad now? He shrugged it off and decided to ignore it for now. He walked toward a store where a tall blonde girl worked there, but he found it closed for the day. However, the convenience store was on the borderline of downtown and the town. And he heard yelling.

--Kisa's part now—

"YOU FUCKIN' MURDERED HIM! WHAT'S GOTTEN INTO YOU!" Rin was yelling at the top of her lungs.

"What makes you think it was me?" Kisa said coldly. "Everyone in this gang carries guns. And you blame it on me?"

"YOU COULD'VE STOPPED IT! BUT YOU DECIDED TO LET HIM DIE!" Rin's face was flushed with rage. "YOU THINK YOU'RE ALL THAT, DON'T YOU! OH YEAH, YOU'RE PART OF A GANG NOW, BUT WHO CARES?"

"I do," Kisa replied calmly in the same icy tone. "Again, how could I have stopped Haru's murder? Do you expect me to be able to predict every one of my friends' act—"

"HA! FRIENDS, YOU CALL THEM? FRIENDS! THAT'S THE FUNNIEST THING I'VE HEARD FROM YOU!" Rin grabbed Kisa by her shirt. Kisa made no move to fight back.

"Yes, my friends," Kisa said coolly. "As if you can say that to me though. What friend's do you have?"

Rin didn't answer. She shoved Kisa against the alley wall and said, "You better get your act straight Kisa. If Haru were to forgive you, you better get out of this life." Rin turned on her heel and walked away, her jet black hair moving weightlessly behind her. Kisa glared at her and took out the dagger she had put in her belt when Rin came and hid it back in her boot.

--Back to Hiro—

"Ah…! Rin!" Hiro went over to Rin. But a couple of yards away he noticed that her eyes were narrowed and her hands were in tight fists. "Rin, what happened?"

"Your stupid girlfriend…!" she said in a low, angry voice. "She has no fuckin' idea what's she's been causing the last couple of years!" Rin walked past Hiro without looking back.

"Wait, Rin!" Hiro ran back over to her. "My girlfriend? You don't mean Kisa, do you?"

"WHO ELSE!" she turned abruptly toward him. "DO YOU EVEN KNOW WHAT'S SHE'S BEEN DOING? DO YOU EVEN KNOW WHAT'S BEEN GOING ON!"

"Rin, what's wrong? You're acting…well normal…but why are you yelling at me!"

"Go talk to her yourself!" she yelled and ran down the street at breakneck speed, leaving Hiro half dazed. What has been going on with Kisa the last couple of years?

He started to walk downtown. It was sketchy and even during the day it seemed formidable. Then he heard shouts.

"You're so damn stupid, you know? What made you think you'd come here and leave without getting hurt!"

There was silence than Hiro heard the sound of someone getting hit. He ran toward the skirmish.

"Tell your leader that we didn't attack your stupid hideout. It's a waste of time."

"A waste of time?" the other voice laughed. Hiro turned a corner. He saw a guy with a bruise on his cheekbone looking at a girl with long, red hair, whose back was turned to Hiro. "Waste of time? Yet you decide to kill someone who can't even fight back?" his voice was mocking.

"SHUT UP!" she gave him a shower of hard blows. When she stopped, the body was on the floor and motionless.

"Hide the body," the girl said, looking at her fist, which was full of blood.

"Is he dead?" a tall guy with sunglasses asked.

"No, Keith, though it was dust on her hand instead of someone's blood.

"Yeah, but wh--? HEY YOU!" the guy named Keith noticed Hiro. Hiro froze—dang, I'm here at the wrong time. "What're you doing here!" He walked swiftly toward Hiro, along with a couple of other guys. The girl didn't turn around.

"I'm…just passing by," Hiro said, hoping it was buyable.

"Just passing by…sorry, but you won't be going back. What should we do to him, Kisa-sama?"

"Whatever you want, just make sure he won't tell anyone what happened," Kisa said smoothly and started walking away down the ally.

Kisa…sama? "KISA-CHAN!" Hiro shouted. "KISA! IT'S HI—"

He felt a blow to his cheek. "You dared to call Kisa-sama like she was your friend? That will be your last mis—"

Hiro punched the guy right under the diaphragm before he could say anything else. He raised his fists—could handle gangsters like this. Shishou fought much better than these guys, and he was the one who taught Hiro and everyone else.

"Why you—!"

"Hiro-chan?"

Hiro looked at Kisa. She had actually stopped dead, looking pale as a ghost.
