AUTHOR'S NOTE: I'll be able to devote more time to this, since Peter Parker's Precious Little Life is done and Ultimate Batman chapters are usually really short.
Five reviews already? Wow. You guys rock.
PRESENT DAY
DEATH CITY
Death The Kid walked out of Dunkin' Donuts over to his squad car.
He was an honorary officer of the DCPD, and proud to be.
In the car was a fellow officer, Crona Makenshi. Kid walked over and sat in the driver's seat. "Got the donuts."
"What type did you get, Kid?"
"I got myself a vanilla frosted donut, and you a jelly donut."
"NO! Jelly donut leak all over me! I can't deal with leaking!"
"Fine, we'll trade, then."
They never got the chance.
At that moment, a car was speeding right toward them. Kid looked out the window. "What on-"
The car slammed into Crona's side of the car, knocking him unconscious. Kid leapt out of the car immediately. "My God! No! No! If you're going to drunkenly ram a police car, hit it straight in the middle! Good lord, the dent is asymmetrical!"
In the other car, a girl not much older than Kid got out. This was, of course, our little Tsubaki grown up. "Jeez, sorry, officer... I don't even drink, really..." Then took a swig from the bottle of Sangre Negro in her hand.
Kid immediately took out his twin pistols and pointed them at Tsubaki. "Hands in the air!"
Tsubaki waved her hands in the air. "Wahoo! What, are we partying?"
Kid said nothing; he simply ran over to her, handcuffed her, and put in the back of the squad car. Kid drove over to the police station, then put Tsubaki into a holding cell.
Tsubaki lay on her cell bunk peacefully. Soon, she was all alone in the cell block.
She woke up.
Tsubaki stood up and slipped out of the sleazy dress she was wearing, and put on the ninja uniform she hid in her purse. Her right hand turned into a ninja sword blade. Tsubaki stuck the sword's blade into the lock to her cell door. The lock went ka-chunk.
She was free. Tsubaki ran over to the cell block which held the cell she was looking for. Earlier in the week, she heard a member of the Star Clan was being held here for attempted murder and robbery. As far as she was concerned, if you were a member of the Star Clan, you were dead if she found you. And so far, she'd taken out 21 other Star Clan members.
Tsubaki turned into a shuriken and took out all of the security cams in the block. They hadn't caught her before, anyway, so no one could pin this one on her. She ran over to the cell she was looking for.
In it was the legendary Red*Star. He was a right-hand man to White*Star. Everyone guessed he got sloppy. Tsubaki picked the lock to his cell door and opened it. "Get up," She commanded.
Red*Star slowly awakened from his slumber. When he saw Tsubaki, he paled. "A Nakatsusaka!"
"Correction, scum: The Nakatsusaka. You killed my clan, you son of a b***h." She turned her arm into a sword blade. "Now I'm killing yours."
Five minutes later, a bunch of guards huddled around the dirtied soul of the assassin. It had some sort of flower design etched into it, undoubtedly by a sword. The guards checked on all of the prisoners. Kid personally went to look in on Tsubaki. She was in her cell, sleeping in a sleazy dress.
The next morning, Tsubaki was freed from her cell and given a court order. "You're to come back here in eight days exactly," Kid told her. Tsubaki exited the station and went to her apartment. Her roommates for over a decade, Soul and Maka, held up a newspaper article about "Another Flower Killing" in Death City.
Maka glared daggers at Tsubaki. "What time does this make it? Number 22? The reason why we haven't kicked you out for this is because you're our friend, and you have nowhere else to go."
Soul gave Tsubaki a dirty look. "What's that in your hand?" He snatched the paper out of her grasp. "DUI? Auto theft? Destruction of DCPD property? Not cool, Tsubaki. Not cool."
Tsubaki walked past them over to her room. "I couldn't give a damn if I tried, Soul." She slammed the door to her room.
"What is her deal, Soul? I'm having trouble putting up with it. I love this girl like a sister, but it's too much."
"I hear you. But make sure she doesn't. If she did, she might get mad. And you've seen her get mad before."
"I need some air. I'm going to hook up with Blair at Chupa Cabra's."
"Good idea. When stressed, grab a drink. I'll hit Uncle Joe's."
The two went their ways, leaving Tsubaki alone in the house.
A very bad move.
Tsubaki walked out of her room and into Maka's. She planted a trip-wire grenade in her closet. Then she walked into Soul's and planted a trip-wire machine gun. (She looted these from the DCPD station after she killed Red*Star.)
"It's official. These two are getting in my way."
AUTHOR'S NOTE: Now we're straying from the inspiration (Columbiana) and going off into something else entirely. Should I kill Soul and Maka, or just mutilate them? Tell me what you think.
I got Crona's last name from Welnakia. And Crona's a boy in this, BTW.
R & R!
