Thanks so much you guys for your support-hope you guys enjoy the next chappie! Well, without further ado, here's chap 9 of 'Rebellious 2'

Chap9: commentaries, loss of memory and a whole lot of crap.

"Midnight." Van spat. The man smirked even wider.

"How lovely to see you on this bright, sunny Sunday afternoon. How are you these days? Well, I hope…as for me, well I couldn't possibly be better. No, Van I am not here to fight…no, I was just merely picking up something that is mine…do say hello to Hitomi for me, would you…" he said as he began to walk past van. "….that is…if she's still there…" he said in a soft voice. Van's eyes widened again.

"What the fuck do you mean-

But Midnight was gone.

"Shit." Van cursed as he sped to his house. 'Hitomi…please be safe…' he sped down the block, ran across the street even though it was a green light, and jumped over the gate that led to his house. Running up the staircase, Van slammed the door open.

"HITOMI?!" Van screamed. No answer. "HITOMI?!" he called again, running inside, checking random rooms. Varie came out of the kitchen, a look of worry on her face.

"Van? What's wrong?" she asked.

"Ma, where's Hitomi?" Van asked breathlessly. Varie frowned.

"'Hitomi'? Whose that dear?" Van froze.

"Ma…this isn't the time for jokes. Where is Hitomi?"

"Sweetie, I have no idea whom you are talking about. Now, would you like a gingerbread cookie?" Van shook his head. This couldn't be happening.

"Ma…you remember Hitomi…you know, the girl I'm engaged to?"

"E-engaged to? Van! When did you decide to go and get engaged without my consent?" Varie demanded, hands on her hips. Van could only stare blankly at his mother.

"You've gotta be shitting me." He said bluntly.

"Language! What have I said about using that tone of voice in front of me young man?" Van sighed. This wasn't getting him anywhere.

"Sorry ma…look, I'm gonna go out now and look for my fiancé. Whatever happens don't answer the door to strangers, please? There's a mad gang leader on the loose, 'k?" he said. Varie nodded as if this was normal.

"Ok, sweetheart…bring a sweater with you, it may get chilly." Van obliged and ran out of the house, dumping the present on the couch. As soon as the door clicked, Vaire wobbled a bit. Regaining her posture, she held her head.

"Oh dear…what I headache...this is the last time I buy cookies from teenage boys…I can't remember a thing that happened. Hmm…where did Hitomi go?" she said as she scanned the vacant living room.

X...X

Van ran down the street, not exactly sure of where he was going. 'Hitomi…' he thought helplessly.

'yes?' a groggy voice replied in his head. Van stopped suddenly.

'Hitomi!? Is that you?" he asked in his mind.

'of course it is baka! Who else can communicate with you like this?' she asked.

'where are you?" van asked, getting straight to the point.

'um…not really sure…I think I was drugged or something cuz I was knocked out for a while and now I can't move my body…hell, I can't even talk for that matter…but from what I can tell….old…abandoned…smell of-hang on…is that the smell of bread? I know that scent anywhere! Van, I know where I am! I'm in the alley behind Tom's Bakery. Not exactly sure where in the alley, but I'm sure you'll figure it out…speed it up a notch will ya Van. I'm itching to beat a certain ass' ass…oh…before I hang up on ya, your mom was also drugged.'

'yeah, I figured seeing that she had no clue as to who you were.' Van said as he ran across a street, heading towards the bakery.

"you close yet?" Hitomi asked as she tried to wiggle her fingers.

''k Hitomi…I'm right across from the bakery…can you move yet? Or have the drugs still got to ya?'

'um…it's beginning to wear off but I can do much…most I can do is move my fingertips, and that alone is hard….'

'ok…well, crossing the street now….walking towards alley…inside alley…looking for where you may be…ah…well, well, well…isn't that convenient?'

'what is?'

'somebody must have been expecting me cuz the door is wide open…and I can see you in fetal position, your back to me.' Van said.

'oh…well…that's good…..you'd better be prepared to kick some ass…cuz I think I hear movements coming from that area.'

'me too. Ah, here's buddy #1.' Van said as he punched a guy who was trying to sneak up from behind.

'ouch…that sounded painful' Hitomi joked.

'hope it was.' Van said. 'and here we have buddies 2 and 3…and they are down for the count. Hitomi, if you would do the honors?'

'1…2…3!! Ding! Ding! Ding! And the new champion at ass-kicking is…Van Salazar de Fanel!! And the crowd goes wild!!' van suppressed a laugh. He always enjoyed Hitomi's versions of commentators. His personal favorite was when she acted as a Spanish soccer commentator…her "GOAL!!" s were quite accurate.

'thank you Ms. Kanzaki. That was absolutely brilliant commentary. Oh, and here are buddies 4 and 5!'

'any time…sheesh, how many ass-wipes are there?'

'dunno but this is getting quite boring if you ask me…' van said after kicking buddy #8 down.

" MIDNIGHT!! WHERE THE FUCK ARE YOU?!" van hollered.

"my, my…temper, temper…" a voice taunted from the shadows. Van spun around.

"WHERE ARE YOU MIDNIGHT!?" van hollered again.

"do you miss me that much? Well, since you're so eager…" suddenly a figure appeared from behind Van. With a swift whack on the back of his neck, van was sent stumbling forward. He spun around eyes blood red.

"Bastard…" midnight just smiled.

"nice to see you too, van. Now…shall we settle this?"

"heh….ready when you are…"
