of Chiyo
"Chiyo.. Ha-- Chiyo Matsumura, it's nice to meet you."
The crimson haired girl softly replied,"I am an enemy to the Soldats and their maidens of darkness.."
Mireille
hung her head low and replied,"So
are we, Chiyo.."
..."Mireille."
"Yes, Chiyo?"
"How much do you care about Kirika?" Chiyo asked as she glanced between the two known as Noir.
Kirika turned to look at Mireille and noticed that the blonde's eyes were closed and a smile was upon her face and after a few minutes she then spoke up.
"That is a very stupid question, Chiyo."
"How is it?" The red wolf spoke.
Mireille replied, "You might question my thoughts and my ways.. with allowing Kirika to go off with others."
"In order to have a partner, you
must trust in them and their abilities." she continued on,
"Just
as Kirika did for me, I would risk my life to save her."
"We
should arrange a flight as soon as possible." Chiyo
added.
Mireille shook her head and tried to smile as she replied, "Come back with us and I will take care of it."
"Mireille?!" Kirika questioned in surprise knowing that her partner did not like the red head.
"Thank You, Madam Bouquet." Chiyo replied and then walked over and kissed the blonde upon her cheek.
In the present, Mireille touched her cheek and remembered that her departed friend had kissed her there before. Kirika kept watching her out of concern while the blonde continued thinking.
...
She
remembered Chiyo interrupting her and Kirika over a damn soda.
The
memory of the event put a smile on her
face..
"I'm sorry about leaving.. it bothered me that someone walked into our bedroom uninvited."
Chiyo's eyes opened wide when she replied,
"I'll knock next time.. I was thirsty and it's best not
drink all of someone else's
drinks."
"Kirika is not your property or anyone else's." Chiyo pointed out.
"I KNOW THAT!" Mireille shouted angrily.
The crimson haired
girl questioned.
"Then why am I not allowed to look at her?"
"She's MY partner Chiyo!"Mireille shouted. "I'm supposed to look out for her!"
"Whatever you say.."Chiyo replied as she rolled her eyes. "Hmm.."
"Hmm?" The blonde questioned.
The Red Wold smiled brightly and
replied,
"I have your ticket in my hand still.. which means
that I can sit right beside of her instead of you!"
"DAMMIT!" Mireille fumed."I only came here..just so that Kirika would learn about her past and understand some things about herself."
"You love that girl, huh?"
Mireille began to feel furious and embarrassed with Chiyo's question,"My feelings are of nobody's business.. it's mainly because.. I feel sorry for her..Chiyo.."
A very familiar sad sounding voice interrupted their conversation, "You.. only feel sorry for me?"
Both girls turned around in surprise,"Kirika!"
Sadly Kirika looked into her partner's eyes and said her name,"Mireille.." With tears dripping down her face she runs away.
Mireille
shouted out toward the running girl,
"Kirika!" "KIRIKA!" "STOP!" "KIRIKA!!"
Angrily
she looked toward Chiyo and then pulled her up by the collar and
shook her violently and began shouting at her,"DAMN
YOU, CHIYO!" She
took a deep breath to try to calm down a little,"WHY
IN THE HELL DID YOU HAVE TO BRING THAT UP!?"
The
Red Wolf gave Mireille a look of pity and then replied,
"If
it wasn't true.. then why would you say such an awful thing..?"
... Mireille
was removed from her thoughts and memories of Chiyo.
"Alright." Mireille replied and then remained silent.
Their entire car ride was in silence.
The brunette kept looking over at Mireille and she noticed just how her focus was so intent on what was in front of her as she continued driving.
Kirika remembered that Mireille was the same way when
she was looking at flowers a few days after the blonde had killed her
uncle Claude Feyder. Kirika
worried over her partnerand when they got home she noticed that her
blonde lover had plopped down on the couch and began watching
television
Something that Mireille rarely did.
Soon the
brunette just couldn't stand it. She cried out,
"Please,
don't leave me... Mireille.. please.."
Mireille looked
over at Kirika with a dulled expression until the tears in her
lover's eyes brought her back to reality.
"Huh, What's wrong,
Kirika?"
The younger woman latched tightly around her
lover.
"I just need you.."
Mireille began
stroking her partner's cheek and then replied, "Kirika..."
The
two shared an intense kiss.
Kirika replied," I will be starting back to school tomorrow.. I have to find that girl.."
"I'm sorry, Kirika.." The blonde tried to say more but the words wouldn't come to her. "I'll try some of my contacts tomorrow..but this evening.. I want to just be with you..first we need to shower, ma cherie."
"Alright."
... Half
hour later... "Ohhhh...
Kirika..." "I'll make you pay attention to me,
Mireille!" "You are doing a good job... I love
you,Kirika.." "I love you too."
... Mireille
looks up at the ceiling and her thoughts "Her life was gone within
minutes.." "I'm sorry... Chiyo.." "I
swear.. I will find that man.." ...
began to race inside her
mind.
Soon she overheard
Kirika whimper..
It worried her even more when her lover began to
start shaking.
"KIRIKA!" " WAKE UP!" "NOW!!" Mireille shouted.
Soon she realized that Kirika had not been asleep.
"My father's Beretta.."
"Huh?"
"This gun..the one I used to murder with.. was my father's.."
"You remembered your father..?"
"I saw him kill an
enemy.. and that's part of how I lost myself.."
"How can
someone so kind be that fierce and fast as the wind."
"Maybe your mother kept him in line?"
Kirika smiled back at Mireille.
"Just like how you keep me in line, Mireille?"
Mireille smiled back.
"Get some rest, you have a busy day ahead of you."
"May I lay in your arms, Mireille?"
The blonde replied with a smile
upon her face,
"Of course, you are my girlfriend after
all."
...
The next morning Mireille woke up
to an empty bed.
She looked at the time and noticed that Kirika
had left two hours ago.
A sigh escaped her lips as she thought to
herself.
"Paulette
might be able to help." "If not I'll talk to the
more pricey informants." ...
"Valerie
keeps looking over in my direction and then goes back to
talking." "The other girls seem so..normal.." "I
miss Chiyo.. at least we talked and she was alive then..." "Mireille
seemed so devistated by her death.." "I hope that
Mireille is doing alright without me.."
"What happened to that
Chiyo girl?" Shantay asked.
Kirika lied to the other girls, "She.. umm.. she decided to stay in Japan."
"You didn't get your bag checked today.. is there a reason why, Kirika?" Her teacher replied.
Valerie covered Kirika's mouth and spoke
up for her,
"My uncle checked her bag earlier."
Kirika's eyes widened and noticed the smirk on Valerie's face.
"She's
lying...and just who exactly is her uncle?"Valerie
then whispered to Kirika, "After
this session is over, I need you to come with me...let's try not to
make a scene." ...
Mireille
was running out of options on people to go to about information on
both
Ryan Gallagher and his daughter that went by the name Code
Deck.
She cringed when she looked at the paper,
" Not
Poupé.. why does that bastard have to be my last option..?"
She
sighed and took a deep breath and called him,
"Hello, Poupé..
it's Mireille.. I--
He interrupted her, "Oh, it's been awhile my love."
"I will kick his ass after this is over.""Hello, Mireille?"
"We need to meet so we can discuss business."
"Alright, let's meet at the usual place."
..."Alright, Kirika if that is truly your name..no sudden moves."
"Where are we going?" Kirika questioned.
"You are going with me to see my uncle."
"Why are you taking me to see him?""He's looking for a certain girl that might hold the answers that he is looking for."
They
continue walking until they reach a building. Finally they reached her uncle's
office and Kirika was very surprised to see who her uncle really
was.
Valerie forces
Kirika into the elevator, normally she would have killed her
but
killing the girl wouldn't get her questions solved either.
For all
Kirika knew Valerie could have been Code Deck,
knew her or even
be related to the girl.
"We're looking for Code Deck also.. her father is the one who set up my family's murder."
"Ah.. yes, Makoto Matsumura he was one of our finest..his entire line was filled with excellence. I had forgotten that you were his daughter."
"Ryan Gallagher and his daughter are not to be taken lightly, What will you do once you get your hands on them?"
"Shoot them." Kirika replied."He knows quite a bit on your family history.. he was your father's partner after all.. Adam Gallagher his father was partner's with your grandfather Taiki Matsumura." Breffort added.
"That's all in the past.. I want to protect my remaining family from him."
"Remaining?"
"Yes."
"Hmm.." Breffort then continued," This just came in, it is a picture of Code Deck."
Kirika recongnized the face immediately.. "That's Ruby!"
Valerie ran over to look, "It is her.."
...
Mireille was becoming frustrated with her ex.
"Why would you want to know about that?" he asked.
"Poupé.. I want information.. I didn't come here for a DATE!" Mireille yelled at him.
"Shhh.. Mireille..."
Angrily she tried to look the other way and
noticed Kirika with that Valerie girl.
Jealousy and anger was
building up inside of her.
...
"Whatever you want to eat, Kirika.. I'll pay." Valerie mentioned.
"Thanks.." Kirika replied.
Valerie sighed and then replied, "I can't believe it's Ruby.."
The brunette lowered her head and then replied,
"I
don't know her too well.."
"I've known her almost my entire life.." Valerie added.
Valerie turned her head and noticed Mireille with some guy.
"Does your roommate have a boyfriend now?"
"NO!" Kirika replied angrily.
"I hate to say it but look over there.."
Mireille
and Kirika were now looking eye to eye. Mireille
held Kirika up by her shirt collar and Mireille
Jealousy, hurt, anger and
rage was taking them over.
There would be no time to talk.
Neither
were thinking of the fact that they were discussing business.
All
that filled their mind and body was betrayal.
felt the gun in
Kirika's Parka touching her.
Poupé noticed that both women were
angry with each other
and he knew when Mireille was pissed it was
best to run like hell.
Mireille proceeded towards Valerie and pulled her up by
the collar.
"Please.. I was telling her about Code Deck.."
After hearing those words Mireille immediately dropped the girl.
"Kirika wasn't cheating on me..then?"
"Correct.. however, she believes that you were cheating on her."
"DAMMIT!" Mireille shouted and then chased after her girlfriend.
As she ran for Kirika all she could do was think.
"I
don't want to end up fighting against her.." "Even
if she kills Poupé... I don't blame her.." " I was
planning on it anyway.." "We're partners and we
should be fighting together.." "Not each
other!" "Kirika.. I am not your enemy.." "I
am your girlfriend. Kirika is definitely PISSED OFF. D:
Both women were
thinking illogical when they saw their partner with another. In their
business people that come into their lives have a high death rate.
Each were alone for far too long and the thought of losing the other
is painful.
It's not wonder they are so protective towards the
other.
Right now, Mireille understands that Kirika wasn't cheating on her. She was simply gathering information just as she was trying to do.Kirika on the other hand is unaware that Poupé is just an ex of Mireille. Not a person that she is having an afair with.
Her feelings of betrayal could cause her to kill both the Poupé dude and her beloved unless she willing to listen to the truth.
The
reason I made a double update was because I was bored and want to
push myself harder to get Chapter 12 done..
If I get too weak next
week to achieve my goal, I apologize.
