Chapter 2
By Dream Goddess00
"Four orders of french onion soup Billy, and make it
snappy!" Makoto Kino said as she picked up an order of hamburgers.
It was a busy Saturday night and the place was packed.
All around her people were shouting, babies were crying, and she was
in heaven. For the first time in a long time, she was happy. Humming
softly to herself, she gracefully walked over to the table and gave her
customers their order. Her customers, God it felt good to say that.
"Ms. Chiba? Makoto Chiba?" called someone behind her.
Makoto froze, nobody called her by that name. She turned
cautiously around to see a man staring at her. "I'm sorry sir. Nobody
calls me by that name... They never have."
He smiled, a handsome smile, as he looked down at the neat
notebook he held in his hand. "Sorry, Ms. Kino. Will you please step
outside with me for a moment?"
She looked at him cautiously as she watched him pull out
a detective's badge. Sighing, she nodded as she ordered the Assistant
Manager to cover for her.
"May I have the privilege of a name before you interrogate me?"
Makoto asked as she stared up at the tall man.
"Nathan Rawlings." he said as he stuffed his hands into his pockets.
"I need to ask you some questions about your brother and his organization."
**
"Mmmm, there's your problem." Ami said as she as she pointed
her ice cream spoon at the computer screen, licking the drip of strawberry
ice cream from her lips. "You have too much stuff on this hard drive. You
need to get a better one... Or a better computer for that matter."
Usagi shrugged as she stared into the swirling pool of melting
neopolitan icecream. "I'll just have the company pay for it." she said as
she looked at an old issue of Vanity Fair. "Ohhhh, Ami-chan! This would
look so good on you! This ice blue is just your color and..." Usagi stopped
as she heard someone knock on the door. Sighing, Usagi stood up to get
the door. It was Rei.
"Usa. How is your friend?" Rei said as she impatiently tucked
a loose strand of hair behind you ear.
"Oh Ami? She's fine... who's he?" Usagi asked as she looked
up at the tall man who seemed to dwarf both Rei and Usagi.
Rei smiled as she caught the look of "love" in Usagi's eyes, "Oh,
this is Kevin McCoy. Our undercover agent."
"Undercover agent?" she said as Rei and Kevin entered the room.
"Yeah, he'll be working on this project with us... Only he'll be
on the inside checking things out."
Usagi blinked, "And you're going to make him blend in?" she
asked as she stared at his platinum blonde hair and his soft gray eyes. His
looks alone made him stand out, let alone his height.
The man laughed at her comment, a rich dark laugh as he shook
his head at her. "Oh don't worry about me... As long as you make my
background right, I'll be fine."
"Background?" she asked as she stared up at him.
Rei sighed as she looked at Usagi, "Yeah, you know... his
background information for when he applies for the job..."
Usagi smiled and nodded, "Oh, yeah."
"You gonna let us in or are we going to carry on this conversation
outside." Rei asked.
Usagi shrugged as she picked up the tattered magazine once more,
"Yeah, yeah, come in."
Rei smiled inspite herself as she entered the room.
Ami looked up and blushed at the sight of the tall man. She bowed
slightly as she whispered, "Greetings, I am Mizuno Ami... I mean Ami Mizuno.
Sorry, I'm still getting used to your American customs."
Kevin nodded, "Your doing a fine... In fact I think you speak better
English then I do."
Ami blushed as Usagi laughed softly, "You should stop complimenting
her Kevin... she already looks like she's about to die of embarrassment."
"Usagi!" Ami said as she blushed some more.
Usagi looked up at Kevin and saw the ends of his mouth turn up in what
couldn't be called a smile... but a smirk. It suited him.
Shaking her head, Rei looked at the computer and back a Usagi. Usagi
blinked, then shook her head.
"Oh, right!" she claimed as she sat down in her soft computer chair and
began to type.
"Let's see... Kevin McCoy." she paused and looked the man up and
down. "About 6'3?" she smiled once more as she recieved a nod from Kevin.
"Got a college degree?"
"Bachelors."
Usagi bit her lip, "Let's make it a Masters. Not too prestigious, but
enough to make you stand out. We're here to get you the job remember? And we'll
just make up some references and..."
Kevin sighed, another undercover case. Hopefully this one will be better
than the last...
**
"What?!" Makoto said as she stared at the man in shock. "You can't
just order me to come help you put my adopted brother in jail! He's done a lotta
stupid shit but my God, I still love him."
Nathan bit the inside of his lip. "Now Miss. Kino, we know you know
things that can put your brother in jail... and if you with hold this information, you
could be arrested as an accessory. Please, don't make me arrest you."
"You would do that???" she asked, shocked.
He simply nodded, sad to put what seemed to be an extremely nice,
exceedingly good looking, woman at odds.
"Fine, I'll go with you. I'll tell you all that I know, but I don't like you or
this! Now, if you would excuse me I must tell my Assistant that I will not be returning
today."
Clearing his throat, he nodded, "Of course."
Glaring, she nodded curtly. "Thank you."
**
Minako paced the floor as she looked at the clock on the wall. Five
o'clock, she thought. Now would be the perfect time to call. She looked over at
the phone and cursed herself for a cowered. She couldn't do it. She didn't have
the guts to tell the police what was going on. She laughed harshly. HE probably
owned the police. Shaking her head, she turned and started to walk away. The
phone began to ring.
"Hello, Minako Anio speaking."
"I know who you are Mina." the voice on the other line said softly.
"You." she gasped, horror struck.
"That's right, baby. I'm working for a freind of yours now, a Mamoru
Chiba. And in order for him to make the... business arrangements, he had to give me
something."
Minako narrowed her eyes, "The kinda business you do is dirty."
"Aww, don't you want to know what he gave me." he said seductively.
"Fine, I'll bite. What?" she said.
"You."
Without saying anything Minako slammed the phone down. Eyes wide in
a mixture of fear and anger, Minako grabbed her purse and keys. How dare Chiba
SELL her... and to him. She thought as she headed to the door. She was going to
give that man a piece of her mind and if he doesn't straighten this whole thing up she'd,
she'd.... Minako paused, what could she do? Closing her eyes, Minako shook her head.
She'd go to the police. Even if Mamoru hunted her down and killed her it would be
better than even seeing him again.
**
Mamoru sighed as he looked up from his paper work at the man in front of him.
Tiredly he ran his hands through his hair, "You sure you should have done that?" he questioned
as he watched the man hang his phone.
The man laughed sinisterly, "Sure... If I know Minako, she'll be here any minute.
I've wanted to see her for the longest time. I miss those sexy legs." he finished, smiling at
the thought.
Mamoru frowned. He didn't like the idea of giving anyone to anybody.... But
he needed this man. "You sure you can do this job?"
The man snickered, his face distorted by shadows, "Bring Usagi Tuskino to
you? Just as long as I get my prize... no problem."
