"Kiyoko's been gone for a while now.." Crystal sighed. "I'll go see what she's up to."
The bluenette placed down the black controller and sat up from the carpeted ground. Crystal pushed up her glasses and walked off. Natsu and Yukiko faced each other, smirking evilly.
"It's just me and you, Natsu..."
"I'm gonna send you home crying after I whoop your ass at Call of Duty!"
"You wish! Third time's the charm!"
...
The black haired woman there in the spot, shock and filled with fear. the started shaking as she started walking backwards, stepping on a piece of broken glass. Kiyoko hissed in pain as she pulled out the piece of glass from her socked foot, tipped with her crimson blood and threw it on the floor. Her heart was beating out of her chest. Her breathing was hitched.
"W...W...What... the hell is... all this...?" She breathed. Kiyoko heard footsteps coming into the kitchen, she gasped and hastily ran up the concrete flight of stairs. The blackette slammed the door behind her when she reached the kitchen. Just in time, Crystal had arrived.
"Kiyoko, what are you doing? Are you feeling okay? You look pale..." Crystal questioned. Kiyoko calmed down little by little, staring at the bluenette. Her breathing came back to regular speed and she calmed down enough to give a straight answer.
"T-this door was open... I closed it.." Kiyoko forced a smile. Crystal raised an eyebrow, glared but then smiled.
"Oh silly me! I forgot to lock the door." Crystal smiled warmly, grabbing Kiyoko by her hand and pulling her away from the kitchen. The two returned to the living room, seeing the blonde sulking in a corner as Natsu grinned triumphantly.
"What happened?" The bluenette and blackette asked in union.
"Natsu, you dense little idiot. What the hell did you do to Yukiko?"
Natsu laughed.
"I beat her, 3 times in a row bitch! Suck on ittttt!" Natsu cockly told the two women. They both sweatdropped. Crystal giggled.
"Told you that Natsu was good at Call of Duty." Crystal smirked. "But you didn't listen..."
"Shut up Crystal." Animated tears flowed down Yukiko's face. Natsu's face turned red.
"You talk about me in school?" He pointed at himself. Seeing her blush fifty shades of red, his lips curled into a smirk.
"Psssh! We were on the topic of games! It's not like I boasted about you or anything!" She pouted, folding her arms.
"Anyways. Yukiko, time for us to go home but you go wait outside. I need to talk to our dear friend Crystal..." Kiyoko's voice had auch seriousness, not like her regular voice. It sent chills up Crystal's spine, Natsu sent her a concered look but she shook her head at the pink haired assassin.
Natsu nodded.
"Yukiko, I'll wait with you outside." Natsu walked to the door but not without a second glance, he threw Kiyoko a glare and walked out. Yukiko shortly following behind.
Crystal took a seat on the couch, Kiyoko sat opposite of her. On the glass table, it had empty cups and a teapot filled with matcha tea. Crystal poured both of them a cup and she brought hers up to her pink pair of lips.
"Crystal."
Crystal placed the warm cup of tea down, crossing her legs and placing her hands on top. She smiled.
"Something on your mind?"
Kiyoko narrowed her eyes.
"Yes."
"Care to tell?"
"Oh, you know what I'm talking about."
The bluenette raised an eyebrow. "Ummm... I don't..."
"Why didn't you tell me sooner?"
"Kiyo-"
"WHY?!" Kiyoko raised her voice, standing up with her fists clenched.
"WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME?! YOU HID THIS FROM ME, YUKIKO AND ALL THE OTHER PEOPLE AT SCHOOL! WHY?! WHY DID YOU KEEP SUCH A BIG PART OF YOUR LIFE AWAY FROM ME?! FROM US! ANSWER ME, CRYSTALA!"
Crystal stared at the girl in awe, her eyes slightly widened as her mouth was open a bit. Her lip trembled as she got up, her bangs covering her tear stained eyes.
"It's too early for this..."
"E-eh?"
"I didn't want it to happen so quickly..." Crystal raised her head, her teeth slightly gritted as tears wielded up in the corners of her eyes.
"You just had to find out didn't you..." Tears streamed down the bluenette's chin, dropping unto the floor below.
"You just had to go snooping around..." Crystal walked up to her.
"It..."
"-WAS NONE OF YOUR FUCKING BUSINESS!"
Kiyoko stepped back a bit at her sudden outburst.
"I...I..." Crystal looked up at her, a sad and depressed look in her eyes. "I didn't want to be rejected! I didn't want you to know because I thought you both would stop being by friends!"
More tears came down. "I didn't want to lose such close friends to me, just because... I was an assassin..."
"Who said I was gonna leave you...?"
Kiyoko smiled softly, reaching over and embracing the bluenette in a warm hug. Crystal didn't hug back, she was in shock. All the time, whenever people would find out, they would all run and cower in fear. Bullying her. Calling her a monster. A person that shouldn't belong in this world.
Her mother was the captain of the Fiore Army. A strong leader who led her comrades into battle with faith. And bravery. She ruled the army with a iron fist, everyone respected and loved her. She never led her soldiers with fear and fright. She loved them all.
Her father, a top rank assassin. He was part of the dark side, working for dark guilds. Killing innocent people if they job required it. He was just in it for the money. Didn't care about anyone else.
But the both retired from their work when they met each other. Left all of it behind and settled down with their children they loved ever so much.
Crystal thought back to all of the times she was bullied and called names. All the times when she would arrive home, with nobody to take care of her or comfort her. She was alone in junior high school, high school and college. Until she met the twins. She was so grateful to have friends in school beside people at the guild.
The bluenette let her tears stream down her cheeks.
"I was never going to leave you..."
Kiyoko pulled away, wiping away the bluenette's tears from her face. She smiled.
"Never. Friends stick with each other, no?"
"B-but... You're... not rejecting me...?" Crystal hicupped. Kiyoko shook her head with a giggle.
"Of course not. You're my friend. Assassin or not." Kiyoko sat back down, Crystal sitting down with her.
"I thought you'd be scared of me..."
"Nah, you're too adorable for me to be scared of you. All that made me panic was the blood on some of swords-"
"Oh!" Crystal laughed. "That? Me and Natsu went hunting after a mission I did. That damn idiot saw a deer running around and decided to go kill it. Poor thing." Crystal sighed.
"Natsu's an assassin? Hmm, makes sense." She thought.
"And... the dry blood? Was it from the deer as well?" The black haired woman asked.
"As you know..." Crystal narrowed here eyes. "An assassin's job is to eliminate people that are required for the job. Some people do it for fun."
Kiyoko looked to the side. "O-oh..."
"But, you must've heard on the news about a man named, Blaze Kirishima? I eliminated him." She simply said, keeping her memories in check along with that crazy voice in the back of her head.
"Isn't he one of the most wanted people in Fiore?"
"Yes, he is. I don't want to get into detail about how I found him and such. I'll tell you someday." Crystal got up and so did Kiyoko.
"You know I would never hurt you or Yukiko, right?"
Kiyoko swallowed the lump in her throat and smiled. Trying her best not to think about it.
"I know."
Crystal grinned. "Great. Now I have to warn you, you finding this information out can be dangerous so I suggest you don't tell Yukiko or anyone about this."
"Why not?"
"When you're an assassin, alot of people from past jobs or someone you haven't killed could be still after you. Tracking your location or the last place you've been which is why it is important for you to keep your mouth shut." Crystal explained. Kiyoko frowned.
"Well, aren't you in danger as well?" Crystal smiled.
"That's why they're weapons all around the house, especially in my bedroom. If I don't have a weapon, I could always used hand to hand combat." The bluenette walked to the double doors that led outside on the cobblestone pathway. Kiyoko followed her as she opened the doors.
Once they were outside, Natsu and Yukiko were talking. Stuff about school and such. Other things.
"You should totally do it! I bet she'd love it!" Yukiko cheered with a smile. Natsu blushed, rubbing the back of his head.
"Well, I'm still thinking about it..." Natsu turned his head to see that Crystal and Kiyoko were coming out of the doors. Natsu smiled at them both.
"We're done talking." Kiyoko said.
"Yep! So, see you guys at school tomorrow?" Crystal asked, they both nodded and said their goodbyes.
"Do it, she will love it." Yukiko mouthed to Natsu. They both walked inside. Crystal closed the doors and fell to the ground, laying against the door and sighing deeply.
"Kiyoko's a good friend.."
"Huh?" Natsu chuckled.
"I have really good hearing, remember? Heard everything you guys talked about." Natsu stooped down to her level, rubbing her sky blue hair with a smile. Making her pout.
"I'm glad to see you've made good friends, Crystal." He placed his forehead on hers, making her look up at him in confusion.
"Remember I'm always here for you, even when everyone else forsakes you." Natsu felt her face heat up from his forehead being on hers, he laughed softly.
"Come on. You've a another day of school tomorrow, let's go take a shower together!"
"In your dreams, pervert!"
"Come onnnn~"
"Besides, I don't wanna see your 1cm dick."
"Fine then, be a bitch."
"What was that? Couldn't hear you over the sound of me roasting you."
Natsu pouted cutely making the bluenette give in.
"Fine. We can take a shower together, but no perverted stuff!"

...
A few weeks had past, it was now October. Crystal had taught Kiyoko more about assassins and how to use a gun and swords. Teaching her what to do in different scenarios if there was no chance of escape. Cheat death, just like she did many, many times. October was the month of Halloween. The month of her Graduation Prom. But little did she know, it would be the worst month of her life.
It was 2:00am. The sounds of loud snores from the beast next to Crystal but she still slept through it. A loud ring of her phone woke her and Natsu up, she groaned as she reached over to the bedside table and grabbed her vibrating phone. She looked at the caller, the bright light from her phone maked her squint her eyes as she placed on her glasses.
"The hell? Kiyoko? Why is she calling me at this hour of the morning?" Crystal looked and saw 20 missed calls from her.
"Better be important." She touched the green button on the screen and put it on loud speaker.
"Yes, Kiyoko? What's the matter?" Crystal groggily asked. A loud scream was heard making the bluenette jump in alarm, so did Natsu.
"Kiyoko? Kiyoko! What's going on?!"
"C-crystal?! You there?! Oh God- Oh God its been terrible! Our school... Some people attacked it early in the morning and now parts of the building's on fire! People are inside with large guns and-and more! Crystal I'm scared! I'm hiding underneath my desk in my dorm and I have no idea where Yukiko is!" Kiyoko whispered loudly.
Natsu already was downstairs, Crystal got her twin Katanas from above her vanity. Her guns as well. Natsu was downstairs in the basement where all her equipment was. He got her assassin suit and rushed back upstairs to give it to her.
"Kiyoko. Calm down and take deep breaths, don't make a sound. I'll be there and deal with whoever did this." Crystal tried to calm the woman down.
"I-I-I-I-I can't! I-I don't know what to do! Crystal-" She went silent for a moment. Crystal was zipping up the zipper underneath her bust.
"What's happening?!"
"Someone's inside our dorm...!"
Crystal growled as she placed her twin Katanas in the holders on her back, her guns at her hips. Crystal placed on her black biker gloves with fishnet material at the front.
"Don't worry. I'll be there, just stay p-"
"CRYSTALA! THEY FOUND ME! CRYSTAL! CRYS-!" The call hung up.
"KIYOKO?!" Crystal yelled. She threw her phone on the bed, grabbing her black Fairytail mask from inside of a drawer and tied the dark blue ropes at the end of the mask to secure it on. Crystal grabbed her boots from inside her closet and hastily put them on. She rushed to the bathroom and quickly put in her contacts as fast as she can.
The bluenette ran downstairs and met Natsu, all ready to go. They both nodded as they ran out the double doors, locking it and going unto her motorcycle. Crystal stepped on the gas pedal and bolted for her school with the speed of lightning.
