You Get Me
Chapter 12
"What was she doing? What's going on?!" Hotohori turned and questioned Nuriko. Yue was standing in the corner of the room, his arms crossed against his chest.
"I don't know. I don't understand any of this but with me going to work, I can't keep an eye on her. She won't talk about it at all." Yue quietly sighed. "Dammit!" He slammed his fist angrily against Table.
Hotohori winced but Nuriko held him back.
Kina leaned against the wall in the hallway. They didn't know she was listening or that she was even awake. She held back the tears and continued to listen to their conversation.
"She's broken." Yue quietly stated.
Kina gasped and put a hand over her mouth, for fear they would hear her. "H- he thinks I'm broken…" She thought to herself. Her red hair wildly ruffled as she turned and ran back into her room. She couldn't listen to it anymore. She crawled under her covers and shut her eyes.
"Want Nuriko and I to investigate a bit?" Hotohori suggested.
"I guess. It looks like the only choice." Yue stared out the window. "Why was she out there? What was she talking about when she said she was sorry for trying to leave? Why wasn't she at school?! Will somebody just tell me!!!!"
"Quiet down! She might hear you, ok? We'll find out, don't worry. Everything will be ok." Hotohori rested his hand onto Yue's shoulder.
"T-thanks." Yue smile but it quickly faded.
"We'll find out, promise!" Nuriko grinned.
~*~
"So what's the plan?" Hotohori looked at Nuriko.
Nuriko took in a deep breath, "When Kina gets home from school, she'll open the door. When she opens the door it will pull a string which will drop an iron onto Neko causing Neko to meow and hiss which will make Kina scream. Her scream will set off the sound activated alarm on the VCR which will send an electric shock through this metal wire which will then set off a mini-camera to film what happens while we're gone."
"Um…" Hotohori raised his eyebrows, "You sure it'll work?"
"Of course! I'm a genius!" Nuriko winked at Hotohori.
The chestnut bishonen smiled at Nuriko, "Ok! But can my code name be…um…Big Mama!! YEAH!!"
"OK! Then I'll be Fat Cheese puff!!!" Nuriko jumped up and down. "Here's your walkie talkie!" He handed Hotohori a black looking square.
A knock brought Yue out of his trance.
"Hello." He tiredly opened the door.
Max smirked, "Could you give this to Kina, she left it at my house yesterday." He handed Yue the jacket she had left behind.
"S-sure..." Yue shut the door as he thought to himself, "Why was she at his house? At his house yesterday instead of school...?"
~*~
"Fat Cheese Puff, this is Big Mama speaking. Kina is now leaving the house." Hotohori felt somebody tap his shoulder. He turned around, coming face to face with Nuriko.
"Big Mama, I'm right here. Let's follow her!" And with that said, the two started to follow Kina.
She felt somebody watching her and it made her shudder. Kina quickly turned her head to find nobody behind her.
Nuriko sat on top of Hotohori right around the corner from Kina, "Man! That was close!"
Hotohori gasped, "GET OFF ME!"
"Big Mama, this is Fat Cheese Puff. Kina is now entering Zion's house."
"Gotcha! I'll go around back, you take the side. Big Mama signing out." Hotohori dived behind some bushes, "Darn, window is shut!"
Nuriko looked around the backyard, hiding behind a porch wall.
"Hey Zion!" Kina waved to her friend, "Let's get right to business. Tell me anything and everything you know about Max."
Her blue haired friend gave her a worried look.
"Just tell me ok!" Kina replied.
"That guy kind of creeps me out. All I know is that he used to have a girlfriend; they had been going out for like five years. She started dating some other guy and about a year ago she just disappeared. Nobody knows what happened to her." Zion explained.
"Oh. My. Gosh." Kina's head began to pound.
"Joking! No, she didn't disappear. She ran off and eloped with some other guy. Broke Max's heart, even though he was kind of obsessive. That's all I know." Zion smiled at Kina, "Why do you ask? If you want my opinion, he's a bit messed up in the head. He witnessed his own parents get killed, pretty sad."
"WHAT?!" Kina's jaw dropped.
"It was in the paper headlines when it happened, when he was five his parents where killed in a drive by shooting. He watched his parents and brother get shot and die. Ever since that I think he's been really screwed up in the dead." Zion explained.
"I've got to go but talk to you later, let's get together and you show me your dream bishonen from before sometime, ok!" Kina stepped out of the door, wrapping her jacket around herself tightly.
Zion instantly blushed, "Fine! Bye!" She waved as her friend walked down the sidewalk.
"Could you hear anything Big Mama?"
"Negative Fat Cheese Puff!!" Hotohori wined.
Soon, Kina returned home where she just sat reading a book. The phone rang. She left it ring and ring.
"Big Mama, should I get that? Big Mama?" Nuriko turned to Hotohori who was asleep next to him. "Asleep on...the...job..." Nuriko fell next to Hotohori, asleep also.
The message machine picked up, "Kina I know you're there. It's no use hiding and not returning to school. Don't you want to graduate from high school? I guess you're not as smart as I thought." His hateful voice said. "Just remember, tell and die." The line went dead. The red head pulled her legs up on the couch, curled up in a ball and shut her eyes hoping to just make it all stop.

Yue sat at a brown desk reviewing over payments for the training center. He sighed, unable to concentrate on his work. He glanced up to stare at a framed picture of his wedding. His arm was wrapped around Kina as she laughed. A huge grin was plastered across his face. Yue was worried about Kina. He knew he shouldn't doubt her and he didn't believe she was cheating on him. But he did know something weird was going on and she wasn't about to tell him. And that scared him. What could be so bad that she couldn't tell him? They where married, weren't they suppose to tell each other everything? Didn't she trust him enough?
~*~
She was dreaming again. She was in a room and in front of Kina was Yue. But Max was behind him, they where plotting on how to get rid of Kina. She jerked up from her sleep, panting. "Now that was scary. I need to tell somebody, I have to or else this is going to eat away at me. Max won't be able to know that I told anyone if I tell them in my room, he can't know what's going on in there." Kina walked down the hallway but stopped. She saw two figures on the floor. "OH MY GOSH!" With a flash, she was beside Nuriko and Hotohori. "DON'T BE DEAD! I WON'T TELL!" She pleaded with the limp figures.
"I DIDN'T DO IT MIAKA!" Hotohori jerked awake followed by Nuriko. "Um...morning!"
"Have you guys been here the whole time?" Kina crossed her arms angrily.
"Um...Nuriko was sick! Yeah!" Hotohori ran from the hallway towards the kitchen, "Going to start dinner!!"
Nuriko stood facing Kina. The hallway filled with an eerie silence.
"I'll go help Big Ma- I mean, Hotohori." Nuriko stared at the carpet as he tried to step past Kina. He felt guilty for following her and now lying to her.
"Wait Nuri- I want to talk to you. No, I need to talk to you." She grabbed onto his sleeve gently and tugged him back. "Please." She had tears brimming on her eyes.
"O-ok..." Nuriko followed her into her room. He trembled with each footstep, afraid of what he was about to hear.
"Nuri, you see, there's this guy at school..." Kina began.

Yue: She's broken.
Nuriko: I'll call the mechanic! Quick, get the oil!
