Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending.

Revealing my parents lives lead to a whole bunch of equipment weighing down Koga's poor car, which had to lug everything around. I never knew my parents did such serious stuff and it seemed that any evidence of a journal had been removed, perhaps stolen. The equipment only urged my search for the destroyers deeper, fueling my initial hate towards the killers – I was positive that just one person could not pull this stunt off by themselves.
"Who made those police reports about my parents being on drugs?" I questioned as my mind wondered. I forgot to check the source, I was too enraged to think properly. I promptly whipped out my cell phone and dialed the police stations number.
"Officer Roberts here, how may I help you miss?" a half-hearted voice asked tiredly on the other line, probably bored out of his mind.
"I'm interested in the Wind case. I'm their daughter and I was wondering who filed the claim about the drug deals and my parents?" I questioned.
More alert, the officer replied. "I'm sorry miss but relative or not I'm not allowed to give out that kind of information. That case is specifically enclosed to anybody who might have any questions upon it. No other information may be leaked."
"Your system is corrupt! I have a right to know!" I growled angrily into the phone.
"Sorry miss, have a good day now." The man replied before he hung up on me and left the dial tone echoing in my ear. How could somebody do that to an innocent daughter of victims?
"We have no lead Koga, what do you suggest we do?" I asked desperately. "I lost my parents, my best friend… I almost even lost my sister."
"Ayame… everything will be okay." Koga whispered as he stopped the car and hugged my head to his chest and lightly stroked my hair. "I won't let anything bad happen to you. No more parties or anything, I promise. I know this is kind of weird to say, Ayame, but I really do think I love you. You're incredible and I can't stand having any other guys around you."
"Koga… I really think I love you too. Between all the stuff we've been through together, every night of having you by my side, having somebody care for me beyond all belief… it was kind of hard not to believe I was in love with you." I admitted back. Emotions were let out.

I opened my eyes and yawned as I looked at the figure beside me. It hadn't been early when we got home, but it wasn't late either. After our feelings were out in the open we both kind of physically reacted too, and it was the best experience I ever had. I closed my eyes again and ran my hand on his wonderfully soft but muscular body.
A vibrating noise came from the night table and Koga shot straight up in bed and picked it up. "Hello? Who is this? There's no way I'm putting her in danger like that! How the fuck do you know all of this shit? Leave me the fuck alone!" Koga screamed into the phone and wouldn't go to sleep for the rest of the night as he looked around and cradled his gun tight.

"I'm glad you guys are finally awake and down here because I have something really serious to tell you but I didn't get the chance yesterday," Bankotsu started as soon as he saw us, "there's fucking cameras set up all around this house. You tell me how that's possible! Nobody ever comes in this house! There are people fucking watching us and God only knows where from."
"You can't be serious." Koga whispered.
"I'm dead serious." Bankotsu nodded.
"That explains how this killer happens to know everything about us… he called me last night. He was watching me and he wanted to meet, face-to-face, with Ayame and I but I'm not willing to risk her life like that." Koga replied.
"Koga, we have to." I sighed. "We don't really have any options and I don't want to spend my entire life running away from some source we don't know. Even if it costs my life it could take down the killer and his team and that's a chance worth taking. I never was a very rational person to most people but I think it's our only choice."
"Ayame…" Koga looked at me sadly.
"We have to." I pushed.
The decision was made and we sorted through my parents spy gear to see what would be useful and what would be useless. By the next morning we had a slip of paper that had an address and time printed neatly on it.
This was the moment I had been waiting for: a face-to-face confrontation with the main mastermind. I was prepared, in black athletic pants with white strips and a tight white belly shirt. Even though I didn't need glasses I popped in some contacts and realized that they hooked up to a microscopic camera that would record everything on a wireless television hookup.
"Are you ready to go?" I turned to Koga. I would finally be able to bring justice to the deaths of my parents, my friend, and the near death of my sister. Koga didn't say anything, just nodded.
