Chapter 2 : Suspicious

"What do you mean you just found her in the middle of no where!? We can't accept anymore people! We're overfilled already!!!"
"What was I supposed to do? Leave her?"
"C'mon already... next time I won't send you out. You always end up bringing someone back... mostly women. Sometimes I wouldn't be surprised if you set traps to hurt them yourself."
"Shut up already. I'm not that kind."
"Riiight..."
"Hey, I think she's coming back to herself..."
I could hear voices, but still, everything was black. Was I dead???
A cold, but soft hand stroked my cheek.
I tried to gather my voice, and once I had enough strength to speak, I stuttered, "W-w-where am I? W-who are y-you? What ha-happened?"
"Shhhhh..."
I could tell it was a male. The voice had a deep, yet sensitive tone. A chill rolled throughout my body. I opened my eyes... and beside me stood a man. He looked young, maybe 20 or so. He had shaggy, chin-length, dark brown hair, and gray eyes. I had never seen anyone with gray eyes before.
"Who are you?" Finally, I could speak normally. I checked out my surroundings... gray walls, stone floor, black leather chairs and the bed that I was on was made of leather, too.
"Kenji Tamuro. No need to be afraid. I work for the Sakura Pirate Agency."
He smirked and continued. "You are Ryoko, if I'm right."
How did he know my name...?
I sprung up from the bed that I had been in, and looked him straight in the eye.
"What exactly do you want from me... ?"
"What do you mean by that?" Kenji stroked the side of my face. I immediately slapped away his hand.
"Kenji, stop with your ever uncharming attitude. You're scaring her." A female voice from behind me spoke.
I spun around to see a woman, who also looked about 20. She had blonde hair that fell to her waist, crystal blue eyes, rosy cheeks, and pale ivory skin. She looked too nice to be a pirate. I was already suspicious.
She looked at me and smiled. "Don't mind him. I'm Maya Fujikage. I'm sure we can be friends."
Everything was somehow... different.
"Where am I!? What happened!?"
Kenji opened his mouth but Maya was the first to answer. "You're in an underground building in Tokyo, especially made for pirates, thieves, or robbers. What happened? You fell into a trap set by pirate hunters. They're everywhere in the woods. That's the most expected place for a pirate or thief to hide."
Kenji was the next to speak.
"There was some boy calling after you. I've seen him before... Tenchi Masaki. You know him?"
That name... was familiar... but I still had no idea who it was.
"Not that I know of..."
Kenji patted me on the head and walked out of the room.
"Perfect..."
*******
Waaa... I know it was short and not so good. Sorry! I kind of rushed. Next chapter will be better. And I'll try to get it up tomorrow = ).
