Cray saw Krane standing outside his apartment building. Walking up to him he stopped. " You're never away from, Karla."
" I had to see how big brother was doing."
Cray sighed. Krane was his younger brother. But only the Headmaster knew that. Being from a family of assassions wasn't something you really wanted people to know. Or talk about.
Cray gestured to his apartment " Figure anything out?"
" There was an odd dusty substance on the floor."
" Odd? Odd how?" Cray asked.
Krane crossed his arms, leaning back against the wall. " The feel. It felt as if something scalely was in it."
Scalely? What was that about? Dust was just dust. Cray stood still. His hands in his pockets.
" Your girl okay?" Kran asked.
" Yes. A nasty bump on the head is all. Thankfully all she has is that and a bad headache." Cray said. " Her mother freaked."
" Not like you. You were out for blood, bro."
Krane was right. He had followed after Riane when she had left the room. He felt the bad for sayign what he did. Well- okay no he didn't. What he said was the truth. But, he could have been kinder about it.
When he got to the top floor, and explosion had rocked the building. He rushed in and found her laying half way off her bed. She wasn't moving. Krane came in after him. He had been the one to call the ambulance. Cray had then got his brother to call her parents, while he had called Rave to tell him to get to the hospital.
" You should tell her."
Cray looked at his brother. Was he out of his mind? Riane was never going to know. He couldn't tell her. Part of himself wanted too tell her but... how?
Shaking his head. Cray moved to the doors to enter the building. " Do you love , Karla?"
" Well, yes. But more like a sister. " Krane said. " Cray. Just tell her. For once in your life. Be happy." Krane pushed away from the wall and begain to walk to his apartment a few blocks away.
Man. The day had been long. And nothing seemed to be going well. Cray sighed. Realizing his brother and rave were right. But how do you tell someone you love them?
Same Night...
Soul held Maka as they watched tv. She hadn't even really ate her dinner. " Maka. Talk to me. You okay?"
" Our baby girl is in the hospital. No I am not okay. " Maka said crying, holding her husband's arm close to her.
" Sh. Hey we didn't know this was going to happen. Rave called when you were talking a shower. She woke up, but went right back to sleep. He will meet us there in the morning." Soul said. Trying to comfort his wife. " Did you call your dad?"
" Yes. he is coming tomorrow morning. He wants to know what happened as well." Maka said.
Soul just held her. He was worried as much as she was. But he had to be strong for her.
Next Morning...
Trai sat with her father and grandfather.
" The test wont be finished till the week. But, I want you and your friends to investigate this." Kid said.
" Are you sure, dad?"
" Yes. Your dad and his friends fought off Asura himself. And they were younger then you." said Shinigami. He sipped his tea and sat next to his son.
Trai dropped her mouth open. her father had helped in taking down such a strong dangrous being? Well dad seemed you left that out about youself. " As long as you are sure about this."
" Yes." Kid said, eating a small cake. " How is Riane?"
" I'm gogint o go check on her after school." Trai said.
" All right. Be safe." Kid said, getting up to hug his daughter.
As she hugged her dad, sheknew he was trying really hard to not fix her uneven shirt. She smiled and waved to her grandfather. metting Raphel in the Guilotine Hallway.
" Mission?" Raphel asked.
" Yeah. Find out whats going on and hope it aint goin to happen again." Trai said, holding Raphel's hand with hers. Hoping that nothing seriously bad was going to happen.
