I get out of the shower, put my clothes back on, then go over to the girl, she still isn't awake, so I start searching her for more needles, then I find the heart shaped box, and the little gem is blinking...
AI - I open my eyes slightly, and look down at you, then I open my eyes in shock and kick you away. 'WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!' I bring my legs in. -Was he just searching me?!- 'Don't touch my box...! My box... wait...' I look at it and it is blinking, then I look over at you and blush. 'Wait, your not hurt? Didn't you touch it? How are you still conscious?!' I look at it again and it stops blinking but is solid red, I look over at you in shock. I open my mouth, but then fall down with a knife in my back, and a bat like woman walks over to you and grabs your face. 'So cute, so you know of our little princess Ai, now do you? You better hope we don't meet again...!' She grabs my body getting ready to set flight with me in her possession.
FANG - I fly over to the woman, punch her lights out, and then pick up the body, I use my amazing healing powers to heal her, then put her box in my backpack with my laptop, I also stick the knife in my shoe, feeling it could come in handy. -so her name is Ai and she is a princess, why did she react that way over a heart shaped box, she thought it would hurt me, how it is just a box, why did that bat woman try to steal her body, gaaaaaah so many questions-
AI - I open my eyes and stand up some, then fall on top of you. 'Hey... Im sleepy...'
FANG - I put you down, and cover you with my only blanket 'go ahead, I'll take first watch.'
AI - I wake up an hour later, then jump out of bed frantically. 'AW MAN IM LATE IM LATE IM LATE!!' I grab my shoes, throw them on, run past you, run out the door and down the street, and into Club Cupid. 'Sorry im late...!' I say to the manager. he smiles and says no problem, and introduces me to the others. 'Hi Im Jen...!' One of the girls says to me, I smile back, quickly fixing the rip in my dress to look better. 'So, boss-- A girl with ripped clothes? Your picking up dregs nowadays. What are you going to do next, raid the orphanage?' One of the girls sitting in a chair smoking says back to me, and i turn around and smile to her. 'Oh my mistake I didnt know you had a seniority system here!' I say back to her. 'What?!' She put out her cig. 'You better watch that scummy mouth of yours!' She said in my face, I gritted my teeth. 'Clearly your maturity level doesnt match your age...!' Just then a younge man walks through the walk-in door. 'There you are.' He says to the girl I had to fight with. 'Oh hi Takeshi, sorry to keep you waiting!' She said, blushing. -Skank...- 'Tonight Id perfer a different hostess. Mika send your new one over to my tabel.' I looked at him. 'Me?' 'yes you...' he put his arm around me, and I fought my way out of his grip. 'DONT TOUCH ME!' I looked at him evily. 'HEY PUT THOSE EYES BACK IN THEIR SOCKETS!' then the manager, Mika, whispered something to me. 'Ai, club cupid rule number one: be kind to the clients. Never insult a client--if they're not satisfied, we'll all lose our jobs!' I went to his tabel, and drank away my anger with some ginger ale. 'Wow you can really drink!' Takeshi said to me. Mika told me to smile, so I did. I went over to him. 'I thought my job was to sing, remember?' He replied by telling me to be pactient, and that he was a VIP. 'Im Takeshi, so whats your name, Princess?' I looked over at him. 'Ai...' 'So... Your not from Japan "princess Ai." He said back to me. 'Where are you from? Lemme guess...! "Ai-Land"!' He laughed some at his own little joke. 'Lets make a toast, to club cupids newest... Angel.' I coughed from out of no-where from the word, and then came to my senses, afterwards, I toke a club cupid heart shaped unbrella, and walked back to the hotel in the rain... -I have to let him go... I cant put him in anymore danger... I dont even know his name...! Why would I care... I shouldnt...- I started to cry when I looked up from staring at the ground, right at you. I rubbed one of my eyes.
FANG - I waited outside of the club for ... Ai... I still couldn't get used to knowing her name. When she walked out she was crying, and she looked at me. 'Hi, you have no idea how many questions I have, and if you are afraid of danger, let me tell you, I deal with scientists experimenting, half wolf half humans with wings, robot half wolf half humans with wings on a daily basis, plus you never got your thing back.' She looked like she had a bad time, I need to go talk to her boss. I walked into the club, found the manager, pulled out the knife, and slit his throat. 'That is for how Ai is treated here' I said and was out of there before the body hit the ground, I had cleaned the blood off the knife and stuck it back in my boots, then went and bought some warm clothes, an umbrella -all black of course- and took off looking for Ai.
AI - My little heart shaped box started blinking again, I ran and found myself in a library. -So this is a library here? Theres so many books... I dont remember anything, where Im from, who I really am, anything, even why I am here, is just what I guess...- I walked over and was stoped and asked for a student I.D. My eyes glazed over with my clear looking lips and tilted my head. 'I.D...?' He held up a little card. 'See this? Have one? You have to be a student to get in...!' I looked at him and got closer. 'Can I get in, pretty please?' I smiled some, and his mouth dropped. 'In exchange for a date...!' I ran off and waved back to him. 'THANKS A TON!' I went to the picture book section without a choice, grabbed a old looking book, opened it, and saw nothing on the pages. 'Cmon its blank?! Wait whats this?' I looked at the faded crest. And then had a image flash in my mind. -My... Father? Ai-land? The kingdoms... princess ai?- I looked back to the book and saw the crest clearly. A heart with wings on it. I hugged the book closely. -Princess Ai...-
FANG - I went to find the girl, and looked in my backpack, to make sure everything was there, her heart shaped box was gone so I knew it would be hard to find her, I went to the library and flashed my student ID that I made, then I kept going to the Fantasy books and looked at some, when I heard someone yell 'Cmon its blank?! Wait whats this?' and it sounded like Ai, I found her and saw her hugging a book to her chest, I then walked over and asked her 'what book is that?'
AI - I kept staring down at the ground, I smiled and hugged the book tighter, then looked up at you from the spot I was sitting at. 'My book...' I stood up and took the book with me out of the library. I picked up my heart shaped box from my thigh chain, flattened out my dress, and then kept walking onward, then tripped over something, and disappeared out of no-where. -Everything's black, whats happening?! whos that...?- I looked up and saw a strange man wearing a black mask over his face. 'WHO ARE YOU LET ME GO WHAT ARE YOU DOING DONT TOUCH MY BOX!!!'
FANG - She just left and I went and returned the book I had, then I saw her disappear, and I followed her, I disappeared too, and saw someone trying to touch her box, I killed the guy with a well aimed punch at the base between his spine and his skull, then picked up her box and handed it to her. 'I have some questions that I need answered'
AI - I swipped back my box with a sour face and fixed my dress. 'That perv... And what questions?' I gave you a princess look again as I sat myself down.
FANG - 'Question one: Where are you from?, Question two: What is up with that heart shaped box?, Question three: Why did you seem amazed that I wasn't hurt by touching the box?, Question four: Why do you think I am a stalker, Question five: What happened at Club Cupid?, answer those then I have more questions.' -Wow she looks great as she puts that princess look on again I really want to just kiss those lips NO BAD FANG BAD FANG BAD FANG-
AI - I puckered my lips closed one eye and tapped my lips thinking. 'Hmm... Not too sure yet, its my only connection to my home, wherever that is... Because it has powers that are beyond your wildest dreams, touch it and if your not fit with my emotions or something then you go down unconscious or dead, I wanted to sing but got stuck hosting for this weird guy...' I switched my crossed legs and said in a babyish voice: 'Anything else?' -I wonder if he knows something I dont... I feel so warm now... and I dont know why...-
FANG - 'Two more, One: How did you get into the library without a student ID, Two: Why are people trying to kill you and take your box. Don't talk to me in a babyish tone, I don't care if you are the Queen of Egypt, I will not be treated that way. Do you have any questions to ask me?' -I wonder if she is telliing me everything-
AI - 'Well, I was real nice to the guy at the front desk... He thinks he has a date with me, which is funny...!' I started to laugh some then I stopped to answer the next question. 'Im not sure, Im not even sure how or why I am on this planet... Dont ask, its very confusing, all I know is this book is mine and I need to keep it...' I hugged the book. 'I have two questions, Whats your name?' I looked away blushing and my eyes glazed some. 'And why do you care so much...?'
FANG - 'My name is Fang, and I care so much because you just seem so much like...' I started to cry then which I rarely do, unless I am thinking of her she was perfect and then... and then...
AI - 'FANG!' I stand up and catch you. 'Whats wrong? Who? Please dont cry...!' I look at you with another different worried princess face. I lay your head on my lap while I sit on the ground. 'Are you alright now...?'
FANG - I stop crying 'Sorry, just... thinking of her always makes me upset... because of what happened... she was willing to be my girlfriend... on the run... then the erasers attacked... one of them knocked... knocked... knocked...' I start to cry again, damn, I couldn't believe how emotional I was now.
AI - I set your head down, my face shadowed over by my hair and the breeze. I stood up and look forward, avoiding your glance. 'Im sorry...' Then I walked off, then jogged, then tears ran down my face silently as I ran. -I dont know where Im running, but anywhere is better than no where...-
Is this the end of Fang and Ai's Blooming relationship?! And who is this mystirious girl of which Fang wont speak of?! FIND OUT NEXT TIME!
