Part III: Pain.Regret.Life.
A med tech sat at a desk looking over a few reports. Most were on
the health of the non-combatant staff and the forward officers. A
few were Lucifer Hawk analysis. Not that they kept any alive mind
you.
When a tech glanced over the data on Katsumi's blood samples for
signs of physiological breakdown due from stress and or psychosis..
she made a discovery that would warm -her- heart.
Kastumi's progesterone levels were up.
A sign that that the fair warrior...had life within her.
The med tech smiled and sent the data directly to Rally's E-MAIL
address. She would have to know, after all.
* * *
I went on patrol for awhile....like I was supposed to....to get my
mind off of the things that Mana and Rally said to me. But that
didn't help a thing....since I was doing my duty as an AMP officer.
I needed some time alone.
Some time to myself.....
I found that not long after when my shift ended. I was tooling down
the streets on a two wheeler....without any set destination. Hard to
do with GPS and shit.
Eh?
Oh that, I own a cycle....a friend of mine in special divison one once
said that riding bikes gave you freedom than driving a car. Y'know
what? She was right.
So....I drove around for a while...until I found myself at a familiar
haunt of ours.
'Labyrinth'. Yuki's place.
I opened the door and the bell jangled. I could hear some commotion
in the back of the place. Whatever it was it smelt good. Moments
later....Yuki popped her head out of the kitchen area and smiled.
"Ah Its you Kiddy-san!" Yuki smiled, then nodded. "Be right with you
Lum Cheng's being nice to me for once and is showing me one of her
recipes."
I blinked.
Since when was Lum Cheng ever nice to Yuki? Usually Those two would
fight and sticking their tongues at each other. I shrugged, strolled
up the the bar and sat down on one of the stools.
I look around. Labryinth was a nice place. Heck this was the spot
where we bonded with the other precincts. Where I got closer to
Ralph....and Katsumi got closer with Roy.
I kinda felt depressed after thinkin' that thought. So I threw that
one off...and focused on something that brought a smile to my face.
Like a pair of lovers walk into this well hidden dive. One was taller
than the other and had brown hair pulled into a ponytail. The other
had short blue hair and twinkling blue eyes.
Both were female. Yeah. Female. It makes no difference what sex they
were. To me, love was love. Plain and simple.
They sit down not to far away from me...and ding one of the bells on
the counter. Yuki comes on out and greeted them with a smile. I
turned away as they made their order. They needed some privacy after
all.
Yuki takes mine next, then returns to the kitchen. I look down at the
complimentary glass of water that Yuki gave us. I then sighed. I
shouldn't be here. I should be with Katsumi. Even on my off hours I
should be with her.
I then feel a strong hand on my shoulder. I look over and see the
brunette towering over me.
"You look depressed." She smiled. "Want to talk about it?"
"Err..." I uttered. "Who are you?"
"Makoto," The brunette nodded. "That's my date, Ami, over there."
Ami blushed when Makoto said that.
"Kiddy Phenil," I nodded to the couple, then suddenly felt the urge
to be polite. "Pleased to meet you."
"Like wise." Makoto nodded at my pleasantry, then sat next to me. "So
what seems to be the problem?"
* * *
"So..." Makoto Kino sighed as the two women sat on either side of
me. Both had sympathetic and compassionate expressions on their
faces. "Your best friend lost her lover...and she's pissed at
whomever or whatever took him away from her."
"Yeah," I nodded at the taller woman. "Thing is I don't know what
to do for her."
"May I make a suggestion?" Ami inquired, then smiled. "Would it be
at all possible to stay by her side...for the time being?"
"Not really....we're both police officers...." I sighed. "I...guess
I could take some time off to be with her though?"
"Oh really?" Makoto hummed, then smiled. "What branch are you two
from?"
"Precinct OO." I stated. They blinked at me, then gave me a big grin.
"What?"
"Nothing....except for the fact that you're among friends." The tall
woman nodded then thrust out a hand. "I'm Makoto Kino. You're new
team mate."
"I am Ami Mizuno!" Ami introduced herself. "I'm also a member of AMP."
"M...More?" I uttered.
Makoto and Ami nodded. I fainted after that. I woke up a short time
later in a small bedroom. Little China girl walked in before I had a
panic attack.
"Ah! You're up!" Lum Cheng grinnned. "So...why'd you faint Kiddy?"
"None of your buisness." I growled at Lum and a noisy breath escaped
my lips "Did that couple.....leave?"
"Yeah." Lum Cheng nodded at me "But not before 'Miss hercules' hauled
you all the way up here. Thank god she took the elevator. She would've
tired herself out if she went up a few flight of steps."
"She...." I murmured, then blushed "Did that....for me?"
"You're acting weird Kiddy...." Little china girl uttered.
"Shut yer yap!" I blurted at Lum, then stood up. "I'm outta here!"
A few day's later I asked to see Mana on an important matter.
"What?" Mana blinked "...you want some time off. Kiddy for all the
time I've known you you've never asked for it."
"Its for...." I began. "....Katsumi."
She thought for a moment, then nodded at my request.
"All right I'll approve of it," Mana nodded at me. "Just pay attention
to Ralph as well."
{Eh!?}
"Love is a very strong emotion...." Mana sighed. "....it makes us human.
But its often weakened when one fights for the others affection. Don't
loose Ralph while you try to woo Katsumi.....back to us."
I blinked. For a moment I thought that she was going to say "woo Katsumi
into your embrace."
But that's just silly. I like guys.
Don't I?
