4~ I think I Lost myself in the Purple

What was I thinking? More importantly, why did I bring him with me to a Diner? I could get him caught in something that won't be pretty in the end or even that he might something about me. But…the way he was wolfing down the streak; my paranoia dwindled. I ordered a booth for two and sat down. He tried to sit down next to me, but one look at me and he sat down across from me; smart boy… I did not know why I invited him…Maybe I just was looking for some human contact. The only one I get is from teachers, bullies, or people that I am close to killing… Oh well…

"You have an bottomless stomach." I told him, looking at my ONE plate and his…many plate sand his 5th one.

"I have a serious metabolism." He said with a shrug; I don't think its normal for…nevermind; it won't matter, "Where are you from?"

"…Far away." I said as he gave me a look, "…Michigan." Red lights went into my head; is he going to stalk me?

"I'm from somewhere too! But I kind of live here too." He said as I nodded; two houses? Nice, "What do you like?"

"Why do you need to know; it's not like we are going to see each other again after this." I told him as he smirked and winked.

"Not unless I got Lady Luck on my side, Gorgeous." He said as I rolled my eyes and smiled a little. I felt my phone vibrate and got it from my back pocket and picked it up.

"Hello-"

"You have a mission." The voice said as I narrowed my eyes and looked out of the window, "Do you comply? It will be in Tennessee. You will be briefed once you are there. Your flight is taken care of and your partner-"

"I don't think I can comply." I said in a hushed tone as Wally didn't notice it; I think, "I'm in a certain situation-"

"Listen here, Wolf. When I said, 'Do you comply?' there is no choice in that matter; you're taking this assignment, kill the target, and leave; that's it…There will be punishment issued and penalties. We wouldn't want anyone involve in this result" I snarled and sighed…am I willing to make that mista-

"You can take this 'punishment' and 'penalties' then stick it up your fat ass; understood? If you threatened my friends, family, me, I will personally go after you; like it or not." I said as I glared.

"We will be in contact, whether you like it or not." The line went dead as I sighed and put my hands in my face and took a deep breath…I didn't like that last comment.

"Hey, are you okay, that sounded like an angry boyfriend." He said, and then ordered chilly hot fries.

"Huh? Oh, no. That's not a boyfriend; I would have kicked their butts." I said as he chuckled, "Just my boss…being a jerk as usual…"

"But didn't he threaten your family and such?" He asked, raising an eyebrow as I raised an eyebrow also; did he hear the whole conversation? I am getting suspicious, "I-I don't mean to pry-"

"Nah, you're just curious…my boss can be a…jerk and a real narcissist …also a psycho, but…well, I have no buts…I just get paid well." I asked with a short laugh as he chuckled.

"What do you do?" He asked as I looked at him… waitress? Drug Dealer? Mistress, or Chef? So many choic-

"I'm an assistant for the…Co-CEO of a company in Michigan…" I said, my heart just laughing at my pathetic lie, "I get bonuses if I work on Sundays…"

"Nice job…you're 15, right?" He asked as I nodded, "Wow, that's such a big job…how'd you get it?" What is this, 20 questions?

"My…sister…has contacts…she is a secretary for another company and…stuff after that's gets confusing." I said and forced the strawberry milkshake through my throat, avoiding eye contact… This is getting awkward…I should end this now and saw a waiter pass by, "Can I get the bill, please?"

"I'm almost done." He said as he called for another plate as I gave him a subtle glare, "What?"

"Well, uh, Wally. It was nice having…breakfast, lunch, AND dinner with you, but I'm going now; see ya." I said and waved goodbye before walking away.

"…Hey, wait up!" He called out as I saw his ginger hair right next to me.

"What is it?" I asked in an annoyed tone, but he kept on smiling.

"Since you are new to the city, and I know some pretty good places here, I could show you around?" He asked in a bashful tone that made me surprised. I didn't see him as that type, "N-not like a date anything, no…! If you want to?" What was I going to do when I leave here? Go back to the hotel? With those people again?

"…What…will you show me? I questioned as he grinned and winked.

"Arcades, the best people, the beach, and…uh…other stuff." He said with a mild blush… I shrug and walked next to him.

"Lead the way, tour guide…I haven't been on a date for a while now." I said as I saw from the corner of my eyes that he was pumping his fist in the air.

"All right then, let's go!" He said and grabbed my hand before pointing at different stores. I wasn't paying attention to that, but his hand, clasped onto mind…Why am I so relaxed about this? I'm not having the feeling of…revenge or…hatred… I silently groan; this feeling feels so…weak…so…nauséeux(queasy)…but…I'll make an exception for one day.

"What do you do in your free time?" He asked, snapping me out of my thoughts.

"I…tune up my bike, train, watch TV-"

"Wait, wait, wait! You're a mechanic?" He asked as I shrugged and rubbed my cheek with my other hand.

"Just a daily thing…it's an old fashion bike, I got to keep it up to date." I said as he nodded and pointed up at something.

"That place has the best chips ever!"

"But…it's a convenient store; it can be found everywhere…"

"I know, that's the best part!"

"Shoot it!" I said as I aimed my gun and shot the zombie, "You suck at shooting!"

"No I don't; you probably play this game too many times!" The timer went out as he groaned. The score was 133 to 105; me, "You don't play fair…"

"What do you mean? I offered you a free head-start. Get at me when you're on my level, duckling." I said with a slight chuckle and collected my tickets, "Uh…what game now?"

"Racing. I have the need for speed." He said as I raised an eyebrow.

"That sounded so cheesy, you don't even know." I said and looked around, "Fine, lets go racing and then cash in your tickets."

"You read my mind, beautiful." He said as I rolled my eyes and carefully folded the number of tickets and fit them inside my pocket. I planted myself on the bike and smiled; I feel like speeding again. I put my last quarter in the slot and pressed the blinking start button. I heard Wally cheer, but I ignored it. I got a black dirt-bike and he gotten a racing motorcycle.

"You are so going down." He taunted as I blew a raspberry at him.

"In your dreams, tough guy." I said and revved the engine…I'm going to massacre this guy.

"Whoo-hoo! I won!"

"You- you cheated!"

"Who's the duckling now?" I glared at him and crossed my arms… this game was a piece of crap anyways, "I thought I was about to lose-"

"And you would've, but there are limitations on this plastic game. Psh, how the hell does someone bump you and you immediately spin around like you're in a tornado; not true!" I said as chuckled a little. The frown on my face cease into a smile, "All right, but I'll give you SOME props...let's go get our prizes." He nodded as he both walked up to the large booth in the back of the arcade room. I went into the corner and put all my tickets into the slider… I waited as the tickets went into the machine until a little piece of paper popped out and read, "1546 tickets." We were here for a while… I gave the ticket person, owner, thing, the ticket as he scanned it and waited for me… I looked up and saw a white medium size bunny and it made me smile.

"I want that bunny-"

"You only have 1546…that is 1600…"

"Really…? You can't be serious." I said and sighed and looked around.

"I'll get it for you." Wally said, showing his ticket to the man, "Under one condition."

"…Which is?"

"I get to show you around more." He said as I gave him a fake shock look.

"Wow, wasting probably 3 hours of my life and get a bunny or go back to my all-you-can-eat buffet at my hotel with my motorcycle…you better get that bunny then…" I said as he grinned and got the bunny with the rest of my tickets and some of his, well…most of his, then he just got candy and such. We both walked out of the arcade with candy and a little cute bunny in my arms.

"Let's see… I could show you the beach-"

"Wally, there you are!" A cheerful voice said as I looked over my shoulder and raised an eyebrow. There was a girl that looked Caucasian; she had a light pink T-shirt under a short-sleeved crop top sweater, skirt, knee-high socks with brown shoes, and a headband to keep her hair back, auburn eyes, and shoulder-length red hair. She has freckles on her cheeks, "I've been looking all over for you- uh…Hello there!"

"Hey." Was all I said before looking at the two, "I se sentir mal à l'aise(feel awkward).Are you two…together?"

"Oh! I'm sorry that you feel awkward. I'm… Megan Morse! A-and, no! We're no together, just good friends." She said with a smile as I nodded.

"I'm Viktorya Fáire; nice to meet you." I said, shaking her hand as she grinned and shook my hand quickly and for an amount of time.

"Hello, Megan!" Is she talking to herself? "I almost forgot why I was here. There's something…wrong with the fridge and you…did it last time, can you help. It's an emergency." She said as I felt there was a deeper meaning to that.

"Aw man, I never get to have fun…I got to go, Viktorya-"

"No worries, I should probably get home and make sure the bunny is safe." I joked as he grinned.

"Will I see you again?" He asked as I walked backwards and shrugged.

"Maybe next weekend; who knows? Maybe even before that. That was a fun date; bye!" I said and turned around and walked down the street to the hotel.

Wally's Pov~

I stared at Viktorya's retreating form and sighed. I'm going to miss her purple eyes; never saw anything like it…she was a beaut-

"Wally, are you okay?" Megan asked as I smirked and nodded.

"Of course I am; now that you're here." I said as she gave me a blank stare, "So, what's the mission this time?"

"I'm not sure. Batman is about to brief us about it; everyone's waiting." She said as I nodded and walked down the street with her, "…Was the date fun? You seem really happy so that mean it gone well, right?"

"Yeah, she was all over me!" I gloated as she gave me an amused smile, "O-okay…she was…resistant…and so sarcastic, but cute…she also had some problems with her job, but I don't think she's the one to cause problem."

Viktorya's Pov~

I slammed my foot into the man's chest as he stumbled back a little. He straighted himself out before putting his hands out in front of him. I growled and took off my jacket and carefully put my bunny on the dresser.

"I'm going to ask you again…tell me who you are and you won't have to die." I said as he spit on the ground, "Hey, you ass…! That is a very clean carpet!" He rolled his shoulders before grabbing a dagger from his pocket; how did it fit in…never mind. I looked around and grabbed the weapon from the floor; a pen.

"That's your weapon of choice?" He cackled as I smirked.

"Anything is a weapon…bring it." He tossed the knife up and down as I stared at him. He ran at him and I tensed and waited. His movements were…SO léthargique(lethargic) and so easy to predict; why do I even leave him alive? He swung left and right, up down; all so pathetic…I ducked under his blade, swiveled left and right. As he thrusted forward with his blade. I used his knee for a place for my foot and put my hands on his shoulder and flipped over him. I then quickly spun around and the heel of foot made contact with his ribcage. The man went onto his knees. I twisted his arm with the knife behind his body and squeezed his hand. I pointed the knife behind his head.

"Maintenant, comment vous appelez-vous?(Now, what's your name ?)" I demanded as he hissed and said nothing. I made the knife touch the back of his neck, making small driplets of blood all on the back of his head, "Are you testing me? Tell me your damn name! Who in their right mind hired you?"

"All he told me was to find this girl and kill her; he told me to call himself 'Hearth'…" That guy, "I'm just a local contract killer-"

"Which you suck at…I will advise you to get another job that isn't so complex… You will stay flat on the floor for 5 minutes and wait for the police to save you. It's better than letting me 'finish' the job. You will count and keep your eyes closed. Now start counting or I will break your arm." I threatened as he nodded and followed my directions. I started to pack up all of my stuff as quickly as possible and looked around, they might find evidence about me- I opened my phone and tapped in a quick phone call.

"My, my, I was wondering when you would call-"

"Ryan, I do not have the damn time for you taquiner(teasing), I need you to erase any evidence on the internet on the following card and I want you erase ANY information that happened the past 6 hours; every single thing. Can you do that?" I asked, putting on my jacket, putting my bag over my shoulder and carrying the bunny.

"Not calling me Hacker anymore; that's an improvement…Can a dog learn new tricks?"

"You're acting like one and I think you can learn a few tricks."

"…You're full of problems and troubles…"

I opened the door to the house and yawned; that was too much fun for one weekend. It's 6 in the morning on Sunday and I was in no mood for church. I really don't care what Veronica says-…she's usually awake at this time and would start yelling at me. I heard small chatter and narrowed my eyes; who's in my house? I took off my boots as silently as possible and went over to the brown vase on the living room table. I put my hand inside and took out a small knife. I then crouched a little and went into stealth mode. I walked into each room carefully; bedroom, dining room, the bathroom even! I then heard a loud laugh! I tighten my grip on my knife and slowly went downstairs to where the large TV was. I jumped down the steps since they made a lot of noise and looked around. The TV is off and I see two shadows from the kitchen. I slowly walked over and pressed my back to the wall. Who the hell was he? He had black hair slicked back what looked like an expensive suit. I looked on the table and snarled; FBI…I'm going to kill you, Ryan.

"Hey, Viktorya!" Veronica said, making me startled; I guess she saw my shadow. I flashed a quick smile towards her and dropped the knife into the ground as it implanted itself behind my back. The guy had gray eyes and a sly smile…I don't like him, "I was just talking to and he's from the F-"

"FBI; I know…I see the badge." I told her and looked at him, "What is he doing here?"

"Well, Viktorya; can I call you that-"

"No you can't." I answered quickly, crossing my arms. He gave out a small chuckled and out his hands in his pockets.

"Right…Uh, Ms. Fáire… There have been many leads and tips from the neighborhood that they saw the Silent Wolf-"

"It's Silencieux Loup. Even the news reporters say that." I said as I saw from the corner of my eye that Veronica was giving me warning looks.

"Well, I'm sorry to say that we are not in France; it's America." He said and stood up… He was taller than I expected, "Sorry to interrupt your fantasy."

"Oh, don't worry. Payback can be a bitc-"

"OKAY! I think that's enough talk for today. Viky, he's going to be here tomorrow to ask us questions-"

"You mean interrogation; fine." I said as I heard her sigh.

"It won't feel like an interrogation if you have nothing to hide; do you Ms. Fáire?" He asked as I felt my hands clenching.

"I don't know, Mr. Hanning because it's really none of your business. I'm not a 'suspected' criminal or anything." I said with a glare.

"So, you are refusing to cooperate?"

"Lets see until tomorrow." I said with a smile as he walked right past me and budge my shoulder. Veronica quickly followed to make sure he got out okay, "Make sure the door doesn't hit you on the way out!"

"Ooh, Viktorya, what are you doing; evoking him like that. I know this is going to be hard, but you will have to deal with tomor-…do you realize that you were holding that bunny for the whole time?" Veronica asked as I looked down as chuckled. The white furry friend was still in my arms from the moment I got in, "Did you buy it?"

"No…I went on a date with-"

"Oh my god! You're serious!" Veronica shouted as she ran into the living room and sat across from me, "You better tell me EVERYTHING that happened on that trip!" She ordered as I raised an eyebrow.

"…All right, it's no big deal-"

"No big deal, my little baby is growing up!" She said as I sunk lower into my seat; it was a bad idea to tell her.

"Well… I said good morning to you, which you completely refused and I went into a hotel and got a room for a day and night…for a lot of money…BUT! I manage to get your money back thanks to a friend of mine-"

"An criminal friend?" She asked, crossing her arms as I rolled my eyes.

"No, he's not doing anything illegal…yeah, he is." I said with a small smile, "Anyways, I changed my clothes and walked around Happy Harbor until I bumped into the guy…who brought me on a date and got me this…His name was Wally; a ginger." She glared, giving me a disapproving look, "Don't give me that look. He was persistent though…and we went out to eat…He had some appetite; larger than mine…I gave him my name, blah, blah, blah, we went to the arcade, got me this, he showed me around, then something happened then he had to do something so I bid my goodbye and left…That's when the trouble started. A contract killer was trying to kill me because I told my boss I practically quit…The end of my weekend." I got up and walked out of the room…

"Was the date fun?"

"Out of all of that information; you'll still on the date?"

"Yeah…"

"It was fun…"
