Choice of BloodClose Call (set the two nights ago)
I'm on duty tonight at club Tai; my supervisor has informed me that several vampires have targeted Club Tai in the last few weeks. Tonight I hope to find the vampires responsible. Five dead, two transformed and one fighting for life, are the only victims I am aware of. It seems that they are coming here to feed not create. Which, in a way, sounds strange to me. Every vampire I have come across they have always been trying to create but I've stopped them. Vampires' coming to a nightclub just to feed sounds a little weird comparing it to my past experience.
I sigh as I continue to memorise the notes I have, as I get dressed. Club Tai isn't the friendliest places to go to, especially since it is a stripper's bar. I shudder at the thought of having to walk through a nightclub with men groping you all the time, whether straight or gay. Grabbing my brush, I stroke it through my hair and placing it back down once I'm finished. Checking myself in the mirror I smile. I have a simple blood red polo shirt on, leather pants, black boots and a knee length black leather jacket. Walking over to my closet I open it and shove all f my clothes to the side, revealing a small blue button and a number pad next to it. Typing in a four-digit code I press the button. The back of my wardrobe opens and reveals everything a vampire hunter needs – weapons. I quickly grab three boxes of premium silver bullets, my Stainless steel shot gun, one cross and three stakes. I prefer to stick with the guns as they work quicker.
Placing them in hidden pockets inside my jacket, I fasten it up and go back to fix my hair roughly. Several minutes later my hair is done in a high Chinese bun, with the needles to add. Smirking at my reflection I grab my keys from the kitchen bench and go down to the garage, after locking the main houses door. I will be meeting a friend there to help me out; she's got an attitude to match her style sometimes. I can't help but laugh at that. Hopping into my midnight blue corvette I start towards my destination: Club Tai.

Goku/Kakarott
I grab more off the lean red meat on the table and stuff in into my mouth eating whole-heartedly. People, the living, believe that Vampires don't eat. I snort in amusement. Vampires do eat, red meat – and lots of it – minor vegetables and blood – though not very often. My stomach growls in impatience as my thoughts drift yet again as I do not concentrate at the task at hand. Food. I grab hands fulls of meat and sallow it ignoring the fellow vampire entering the kitchen. I feel his eyes boring at what I'm stuffing into my mouth at once. Suddenly I hear a sickly groan. Turning in my chair I face him as he holds his stomach, my mouth over flowing with food.
"Whas brong? Brungry?" I ask innocently, not realising that the groan he made was because of how much I eat. He frowns at me and shakes his head in amusement. I tilt my head slightly in confusion.
"No, I'm not hungry, Goku" I see him frown, "I actually came here to tell you that Vegeta said," I hear him clear his voice and put on a deep gruff voice, "Get that mother fucking arsehole down here this minute!!! (AN: I warned you it was foul didn't I?) And if he is stuffing his face tell him if he doesn't leave that fucking kitchen, when we come back I'll personally tear it apart!!" I see the short man smile and bow slightly, "The message: From 'Vegeta,'" I sallow what food I had in my mouth and grumble a curse.
"Fine. Go tell shit head, Kuririn, I'll be down once I get dressed," with that I stand up and stalk past the small man, leaving the confused vampire behind with my attitude. Usually I would of told him to tell Vegeta to go and find a whore. But if he threatens the kitchen, I can't help but obey his orders. I turn sharply and open the door to my quarters. Walking over to my wardrobe I open it to reveal, a dark blue cape, several dark orange clothes (which almost looked red) and some blue wristbands. I strip off the clothes I have and place those on roughly cursing as I trip over the small stool next to me. Standing back up I kick the stool out the window in my room. I stand their lessening in til I hear a loud thump and a very loud curse. I smirk in success as it hit my target.
Grabbing my dark blue and orange boots from the side of my bed, I scurry down the staircase while hopping on one foot to put my boots on. Quickly running through the hallways I hear yelling further ahead, "That no good for nothing dumb arse," I heard Vegeta yell furiously, "aw c'mon he probably didn't know you'll down here," I hear Kuririn toss back. I frown, I did know he was down there I just don't like the kitchen threatened. I step out into the cool nights air and Vegeta turns to snarls at me. I know I will cop it later. Turning on his heel Vegeta lead the way down the staircase from the house (actually more like a 3 story mansion) down to two vehicles. A midnight blue Mercedes (AN: I like those cars ^^) and a black Suzuki motorbike (AN: Like those too…), I automatically turned to the Mercedes with Kuririn following behind. As usual, Vegeta takes the motorcycle as he takes off I follow in the Mercedes.
"Are you alright tonight?" I hear Kuririn ask with a bit of curiosity in his voice.
"Of course I am. Why shouldn't I be?" I asked innocently, I sneak a peak at Kuririn from the corner of my eye. He is wringing his hands around his cape, which isn't like him.
"It's just that well you've never done anything to anger 'him'," he jerked his head towards the red lights a head of us, "before. And well, it's just weird," he trails off as uncertain as to what to say. I frown.
"I don't like the kitchen being threatened," My friend laughs out loud, and I turn fully to face him, "What?" I think I have a ridiculous expression upon my face as he laughs even harder.
"Nothing, nothing," he snorts, "you can never think with your head can you?" he laughs, I frown. We went silent after that but it only lasted for about 10 minutes as we stopped outside a club: Club Tai. After parking the car I hop out and follow Vegeta towards the start of the que. One of the bodyguards standing there stops us and he frowns as the cue yells and curses at us to get at the back of the line. I start to lean down to whisper something in Kuririn's ear when Vegeta pulls something out of his jacket and leans forward to whisper something. The Bodyguard nods and allows us in. My friend and myself follow in confusion.
"What did you say to him?" I ask Vegeta he smirks and continues walking.
"I didn't say anything, Kakarott. I just gave him a 100 dollar bill that's all," he shrugged, "Humans, they believe anything you give them," I shake my head in amusement, but I look up as someone hurries past me ushering an excuse me after. Moments later a flash of blue nearly knocks me to the wall the female ushered an apology she didn't watch where she was going and bumped right into him, Vegeta. I straighten quickly as he rounds on the female but she says sorry and runs after the previous girl. I stand there in confusion after Vegeta growls and continues further into the club.

B/Buruma/Bulma (which ever way my mind veers to write it)
The man I just bumped had an intoxicating scent about him, his onyx eyes I would of have melted in if I hadn't been here on such important matters. I grumble as I sit down by my best friend waiting for another one of our people to come. I can tell that she senses that I'm pissed for some reason but I am thankful she doesn't bring it up in the matter. I slouch back into the comfy half moon chair and sigh. I wish I wasn't here to deal with vampires in fact I wish I wasn't here at all. All of these men think you're a free and easy lay that is in til they see what's inside our jackets. Guns, bullets, crosses, steaks I smirk which earns a curious looks from Chichi. I turn to her and frown.
"What?" I ask innocently. She smiled and shakes her head.
"Nothing, you had that smirk on your face again," she said and sat back into the chair. I smiled.
"Yeah I was just thinking about what a man's reaction will be when they see the weapons on us!" This earns a chuckle from her, and I close my eyes but too soon as some one calls my name. I look up and another female runs over towards Chichi and I. Wearing leather pants, a pale yellow polo shirt, black boots and her jacket in her hand (which looked very bulky) she came over and plopped down next to me. I smiled, as did Chichi.
"Long time no see?" I say pleased that we are all together, the Blonde smiles.
"Yeah I know," She smiles and looks over the bar railings down at the dancing adults and older teenagers. I watch her carefully and suddenly her eyes squint. I turn in my seat and looks over the railings as well, Chichi gets the idea and follows suit.
"What is it Juu?" I ask not taking my eyes of the moving crowd. A strand of hair falls out of place and Juu purposely pushes it back using her elbow to point (not making it obvious) to the man I bumped into earlier. He was dancing with once of the many females of the club and was leading her out of the place. I squinted my eyes trying to get a better look in til I saw him smirk. That smirk showed more than I like. Sharp canine teeth glistened and it was plainly obvious what he was. I curse inwardly as I turn around and climbing roughly over the table, my friend's look back at me with a quizzical expression upon their faces.
"That man has two other men with him. Find them and deal with them," and with that I turn around and run off but I'm soon stopped by yelling, "What?" I turn back irritated to my friends.
"What do they look like?" Juu asks like it as the most obvious thing in the world. I looked at her dumbfounded in til it actually dawned on me. I couldn't help but laugh at my stupidity.
"Oh! Sorry. Well I didn't really get a look at them but I know one's short with black hair, and the other is really tall with his hair going out in every direction," I pause as in confusion, I shrug, "I think," Chichi groans and I hear Juu chuckle as they catch up to me. Juu places a slender hand on my shoulder.
"Your really hopeless some times B, you know that don't you?" she chuckles as she slips her jacket back on, "Oh well lets go and find us some vampires!! I bag the midget!" Chichi turns sharply on Juu and I stand there in amusement.
"Juuhachigou!! You know this is not a game," Chichi was saying this through clenched teeth and was going to continue when Juuhachigou held up her hand to silence her.
"I know, I know," she smirks suddenly and opened her mouth to speak, but I think quickly and clip her over the head. Juu winches as my hand collides and stares at me.
"We are not hear to argue," I frown as time is passing and that, that, Vampire most likely is sucking out that girls blood by now, "Chichi go after the tall one, Juu go after your midget!" and with that I turn around and slide down the railings of the spiral staircase to the ground floor. I groan as I see all the males yelling and cheering on the stripers and all the while groping the very few females in the club. I take a deep breath and push my way through the crowd, while all the while keeping my arms folded over my chest. At least I could save some of my modesty. I see the door that the man led that poor girl through. Almost there. 10 metres, 6 metres, 4 metres… and I shriek as someone groped my rear. I turn around and automatically punch the guy straight in the face. He falls back on the floor knocked unconscious; no one around seemed to notice what I did. Shuddering in disgust I run towards the door trying to get my mind of the man groping me. Pushing it open I run outside into the back of the club, I look around and all I see are boxes and another door to the right. Suddenly I hear a screech and I run towards the sound, rounding the corner of the alley I come across something wagging in the air. I skid to a halt and stare at it in til I hear a sob, cursing I run towards the wagging appendix and grab it, there is a startled yell and the owner of the wagging thing turned around and pushed me off of him.
He glared at me through onyx eyes and snarled, turning on the girl he snapped her neck. I gasp. I have never seen a vampire kill its meal before unless all the blood was drained, and I know all of the blood wasn't drained, the man chuckles.
"What's wrong wrench?" He smirks, "see something you don't like?" I get up and stare at him. Swallowing a lump that had formed in my throat I spoke.
"I thought vampires didn't kill their meal unless all blood was drained," it wasn't a question; it was more like a statement. The man frowns.
"You know what I am? Smart little wrench aren't we," I decide to ignore that comment, and he realises that once I'm not going to say anything he continues, "Vampires don't finish a meal if their interrupted," it was as simple as that, a simple answer to a confused statement. I was going to ask something else but two forms came skidding to a halt around the corner. I turned and jumped back automatically. It was the tall and short one.
"Vegeta!" the short man breathed heavily as he tried to get out what he wanted to say, while the other man was looking back the way they came – as if keeping an eye out, "there… there are vampire hunters here!" he finally gets up and Vegeta stiffens.
"Where? Who?" he snapped but the tall man made a noise that made Vegeta forget his question and get into a fighting position. I find this entertaining as Vampires aren't usually like this but then again, I usually don't suss out the vampires I just go a head and kill them!! I quickly get my gun out and some bullets, I will not load it yet. I watch the other two vampires as they slowly inch away from the corner and towards the one they call Vegeta. Soon I see Juu and Chichi come into view holding their guns out in front of them and they're cross necklace in view. Vegeta snarled and got further down into his fighting position. The twitching appendix that I saw earlier had wrapped itself around his waist – I knew that because I could see his jacket twitch every now and again. Chichi caught my eye and smiled.
"They were easier than we thought," she smiled and I returned it loading my gun and pointing it out in front of me towards Vegeta. Vegeta turned around and snarled as he got back in fighting position facing me. I smirked.
"Didn't think I was a vampire hunter now did you?" I forcefully made my smirk into a cruel smile, "And like all vampire hunters they kill their prime suspects – vampires!" and with that said I shot my gun at the same time as Juu and Chichi did. I didn't have time to react as two silver bullets came hurtling towards me, but I did manage to twist sideways and both bullets caught the back and front of me. I cried out in pain as I felt the deep cut after the bullets went past me. I collapsed to the ground but soon two figures were beside me.
"Shit! Buruma we're so sorry," I heard Chichi usher, "When we shot our guns they… they just disappeared. Disappeared!!" My eyes shot open at the news of that, quickly I gathered my strength and stood again. I looked down at my chest. It has ripped my midnight blue polo shirt (AN: I like my polo shirts don't I??) right across my chest. The cut was deep and bleeding a lot, I cursed loudly. I didn't want to know what my back looked like. I grumbled and got the rest of my bullets out of my jacket and stuffed them in a pocket of my mini black leather skirt. I looked at Juu and Chichi.
"We underestimated them," I stated the obvious, "There still around here some where all we need to do know is…" I stop short as the ground shakes slightly. After the ground stops shaking I swallowed another lump in my throat. Opening my mouth I began to speak again but I was cut short as the wall on our right sort of exploded and a figure came straight at us – no sorry straight at me!! The figure hit me on my shoulder squarely and I went through the opposite wall. I groaned and got out of the rubble just in time to hear and figure yell.
"Kakarott!! Kuririn!! Get the other two wrenches!!" I curse as the figure came at me again. He stopped in front of me and smirked. I frowned but just as I did that I heard yells and a couple of crashes behind Vegeta. I snarl at him lift my knee to his groan. But he stops it and smirks.
"I am not like those other dim-witted vampires you face," his smirk suddenly turned into a sneer, "I am one of the rarest!!" And with those words said he punched me in my stomach, which caused me to go through another wall – back into Club Tai.

Juu/Juuhachigou
I curse as I pull myself out of the rubbish bin and dusted my self off. Looking around I lost site of the man that attacked me. Unlike Chichi and Buruma this vampire through me in the bin. I curse again, I think I rather be thrown threw a wall!! Thinking quickly I reload my gun and put my senses up to full so I could sense the bastard. I look around frantically tarrying to locate him but to no anvil. I sigh slagging my shoulders; its no use Vampires had a way of hiding their power. Suddenly I felt the air shift behind me and I automatically duck, missing the small man's foot by at least an inch. Thinking quickly I do a ground round house kick and aim it at his stomach, but he catches my foot. Slowly I can feel him putting pressure on my foot as I struggled, looking up at his face I saw that he was looking at me – not even realising that he was putting pressure on my foot.
I yelp unexpectedly as he puts more pressure on my foot but I also notice that my sound of alarm made him blink. It took a few seconds but he let go of my foot and I automatically stood, but I stumbled towards him. Shit, shit, shit, shit Juu this is a good way to get bitten!! I cursed myself in my mind as I connected with his chest. I pulled back but his arms caught me around my waist bringing me to my knees so we were face to face. I gulped as I tried to feel for my gun on the ground, but the small man chuckled.
"It's no use trying to find it," I looked up at his eyes, and I could see a hint of amusement in them, "I have your precious gun right here," I looked at him dumbfounded as his arms didn't move but something silver caught my eye and I looked over his shoulder, there was my gun hanging by a furry appendix that happened to be joined to the man. He chuckled again. Frowning I decided the only thing I can do will be to try to get my gun back, so I tried. Struggling against the small vampire seemed a lot harder than what I thought, he had an excellent grip on me and I could hardly move my arms. He chuckled.
"There's no use trying to get away from me! I might be small but I am a lot stronger than you," for some reason this scent a shiver down my spine. Those words just seemed so alluring to me that if I didn't know any better I would of thought I knew this man personally. I shook my head violently and tried to struggle again but his grip tightened, "Tsk, tsk, tsk now what did I say about trying to get away from me?" this time the man whispered it in my ear I shivered involuntary. Suddenly he licked my ear lobe and I yelped in surprise and again tried to get out of his grip but he only tightened it.
"Let me go," I snarled but I think it turned out more like a whimper. The man chuckled.
"Not just yet," he said still next to my ear, I looked past him at his tail still holding my gun. I had to get it – wait!! I smirked suddenly and balled my hands together (they were positioned in front of her but between Kuririn's and her body) and slammed them into the vampire's groin. I grinned as I heard a harsh breath of air sucked in and I take advantage of it and fall back out of his grip. Falling on the ground I swing around to kick him in the face. I grin wickedly as I make contact and force the vampire back a couple of feet. I frown. I don't get it! That kick should of have least knocked him further away! I thought as confusion muddles my mind and he comes back at me. Suddenly I remember his name being called out earlier and I yell it to my surprise and complete shock.
"KURIRIN!!" I close my eyes as I yell it – for some reason I fell scared yelling this out. Maybe it's because he might attack me or it's not his name possibly. I open my eyes to find Kuririn standing they're looking at me with a look of surprise, and anger. I gulp unconsciously as he scowls.
"Don't," he voice was harsh this time, and not the seductive voice that he was using before, "Use, my name human," he spat the word human out as if it was dirt. I scrambled back on my backside, trying to get away. Again confusion was muddling in my mind as he rounded on me. I blink a few times trying to clear my mind in til I can see straight. My Gun!! He still has my gun on his tail. I growl and stand up, Kuririn only coming below my breasts. He frowns as I stare at his tail; he suddenly smirks and holds his tail in front of him, my gun still clasped in it. He chuckles.
"I presume this is yours?" his voice, I can tell, is full of amusement. My eyes widen suddenly as I can see his tail squeezing the gun. I run towards him hoping I can just grab it, but I was too late. His tail crushes my gun right in half, the bullets turning to dust as his tail crushes those as well. My gun falls to the ground in pieces. I stop dead in my tracks starring, "What's wrong? Did I render the blonde speechless?" He sneered at me. Growling I take of my jacket off and go into fighting stance. Unlike Chichi and Buruma I have an excellent talent of fighting skills. Kuririn's eyebrow rose.
"You've got to be kidding?" he chuckled but I didn't get out of my stance. He shrugged and jumped, next thing I knew his foot came right into my face. I went through a wall and back into the club!! I groan as I get up but I hear a yell.
"Juu!! Get down!!" I recognise the voice as Chichi's and I fall back into the rubble as a bullet zooms straight over me. Chichi and Buruma must have gotten knocked into the bar as well because the next thing I knew Buruma came hurtling towards me. The breath was drawn out of me when Buruma was knocked right into me. I heard a painful groan and I look at her beaten up body. These vampires were the strongest we've ever faced. Suddenly my breath is once again drawn out of me as Chichi joins the pile!! Her neck was fully in my line of vision and I frown, there were teeth scrapes there. I struggle to get up but it seems that Chichi had been knocked out and Buruma was in too much pain to move.
"SHIT!!!" I curse loudly as I can't even budge. Kuririn suddenly appears and is looking down at my face. His smirking and I can hear the chuckles of the other two not to far away.
"Tsk, tsk what have you gotten your self into wrench??" He reaches down and grabs my face, my eyes widen as he lifts me out from underneath my friends and throws me on a turned over table. I groan as I get up slowly excepted Kuririn to be there, but he wasn't. He and the other two were standing over Buruma and Chichi I growled and got up on unsteady feet but feel back down. They started to talk.
"Teeth scrape Kakarott?"
"I honestly thought you were more responsible Goku,"
"Marking a Vampire hunter – how sad,"
"I didn't exactly mark her, more like threatened her,"
"And you had to scrap your teeth against her neck?"
"Aw c'mon Kuririn. She wasn't buying it so I had to make it real!"
"You didn't suck her blood did you?" there was a pause as the one named Goku was swirling his tongue around in his mouth, testing for blood.
"Nope. Can't taste any, Vegeta"
"Good. You know the rumour about Vampire Hunters and Vampires…"
"But Vegeta that's only for 'normal' vampires…"
"Kuririn's right Vegeta, were not normal vampires we are the rare type,"
"Too true but I don't want to take any chances! There aren't much of us left and I don't want any contaminated blood in our home!" I heard a snort from Vegeta. My mind was running in circles: Rare type? Not normal vampires? What were they talking about? My thoughts at the precise moment were scrambled and it hurt to think. I let out a groan but I quickly shut my mouth and looked up. I couldn't make my mind up! Were they ignoring me or did they hear me?
"Right Vegeta. I can understand your concern about not wanting contaminated blood in our home, but what about those other vampires that have bitten hunters?"
"Yeah Veg' they have contaminated blood now…" I heard Vegeta growl and his fists clenched together in anger.
"If you remember Kakarott," he spat, " After a year they died because they couldn't survive with the two bloods in their system! And don't call me Veg!" I looked on at the three vampires trying to decide what to do. Their conversation was interesting to listen but it made no sense if I didn't know what they were talking about. Deciding my decision I stand up using the table leg on the turned over table as support. My ankle throbbed and I suspected it was broken – other wise sprained. Either way it hurt like hell. I looked around for a weapon of any kind but nothing seemed reasonable enough. I run my hand over my chain around my neck, my cross still hung there, but Kuririn was still able to touch me. Without getting affected. I curse mentally in frustration, I had no weapons and I couldn't just break one of the table legs!! It's not the right wood. Cursing in my stupidity I look at the three of them and cleared my throat. 'Great Juu! Just great. A great way to get your self killed!' Three heads turned my way and Vegeta scowled.
"What wrench?" he growled at me. I blinked a couple of times but I managed to find my voice through the pain running throughout my body.
"I couldn't help but over hear…"
"Couldn't help?" Kuririn laughed, "That's a good one human!" I glared at him but choice not to comment.
"What do you mean by Rare Type?" I blurted out not bothering to buy some time. I snort. Buy some time? Time for what, the police? I laugh mentally at my own stupidity.
"You don't know?" Goku asked confused, I also catch a surprised look on Vegeta's face and a stunned one on Kuririn's. I shake my head no slowly. Vegeta frowned, as did the other two.
"Lets go," Vegeta, said clearly an order. I open my mouth but Goku beats me to speaking.
"Go? Why?" it almost sounded like a whine, like he didn't want to leave.
"Because I said so," Vegeta growled, "And don't say anything otherwise. We leave now!" And with that I watch stunned as Vegeta turns away and walks of towards one of the broken walls, Goku and Kuririn following in suit. I stood there for a couple of minutes looking stunned and confused that was in til I heard a groan. Turning my head sharply towards the source I see Buruma struggling to move under Chichi. I run over as fast as I can with my ankle and fall next to my friends. Lifting Chichi carefully I swing her over my shoulder as I help Buruma to sit up. She was in worse shape than what I knew of. The wounds at the front and back of her caused by the bullets earlier had drenched her whole shirt in crimson blood, and she had other serious wounds on her body. I curse loudly as I see a deep gash in her right shoulder, and several on her exposed stomach, which I presume was torn through the fight.
I stand dodgy and I nearly fell over if Buruma hadn't caught my elbow. I don't smile for a thanks, I don't even acknowledge her as she wraps an arm around my shoulders to help walk towards the back of the club. This fight the three of us lost and there was no room for talking, no room for concern, there was only room for fleeing. I look up suddenly as I hear sirens and I fell Buruma softly tugging on me to keep moving. I do so and slowly we reach the very back of the club. We were both breathing heavily as our wounds slow our progress greatly and carrying Chichi isn't much help. Buruma stops and slowly moves me down to the ground, I put chichi beside me making her head rest on my knee. I look at Buruma in confusion.
"You know what the police think of us," Buruma spoke softly as the wounds she had were making her dizzy, "I'll bring the vehicles here and we'll drive from here back home," when she said home, I knew she meant the home we regularly went to when ever a situation was getting out of hand.
"What about your motor bike?" I asked. Buruma thought for a moment then spoke.
"I'll try and put what I can with it in the boot," (AN: it's possible to put about half a motor bike in ones car boot, it just might fall out that's all…) Buruma stated and slowly started off towards the parking lot. I leaned back onto the cold wall, trying to ease my breathing. I knew Chichi had brought her corvette with her because I saw a red Suzuki motorbike parked next to it which could only belong to Buruma. My vehicle was trashed thus I had to rely on public transport, which I can't help but feel disgusted. A vampire hunter catching public transport is just hilarious but my thoughts soon get interrupted as a soft rumbling comes towards me. I groan and grab Chichi's arm, winging it over my neck while I'm still sitting on the ground I slowly get up but my ankle give way and I stumble a couple of feet before hitting someone cold but slowly warming up.
I look to my side as Buruma takes Chichi from my grasp and walks to the back seat. I watch her lay her down and walk back over towards me. The first question that pops into my head is the first I blurt out.
"Are you going to be alright to drive?" I ask worried that her injuries will affect her driving but to my surprise Buruma smiled.
"Unlike you I'm not hurt much from my knees and below so I think I can drive," I chuckle as she grabs my arm and we both hobble over to the passengers' side of the car. She eases me in and I can't help but feel guilty as she limps over to the driver's side. I sigh as Buruma reverses out onto the main road and the site that welcomes us is not a shock. Police are everywhere inspecting the place for any evidence what's so ever. People were getting questioned and the club's strippers were all wearing police jackets for protection. We drive slowly past looking at the devastation we caused along with a certain three vampires. I hear Buruma sigh and put her foot down. Continuing down a stretch of road my eyelids begin to droop and I could feel Buruma looking at me every now and again. Finally she spoken, breaking the silence which I longed for to go!
"Have a rest Juu," I hear, she says softly, "You're injured badly and need rest," I snort in amusement.
"I'm not as injured than what you are Buruma," I mumble, my voice quavering. I could almost see Buruma smile.
"True but we hadn't had to fight like that for a long time," she sighs, "Take some rest Juu. Out of all of us, you used your muscles the most, Chichi relied on her weapons than the martial arts she knows, and I," she paused, I didn't look her way as I knew what she was thinking, "I relied on what little skills I have – no Juu let me finish – Intelligence, and technology is my expertise Juu, not fighting. I would of have died if Chichi hadn't stopped Vegeta snapping my neck…" I frown; Chichi stuck her neck out for Buruma without myself knowing. I sigh and close my eyes, taking Buruma's earlier advice. Soon my conscious falls away slowly, my mind becoming blank and my wounds becoming numb. I heard a murmur a faint murmur that told me Buruma will wake me up when we arrive at our home. I welcome the darkness that has engulfed my mind to my whole body. I fall into a painless sleep.
Unbeknown to Juuhachigou though Buruma sat there at the steering wheel driving towards there home thinking of what she could of have lost today, what she would of have lost if it happened to be for Chichi. Tears slightly slid down Buruma's face as she realised how closely she became loosing two things that night: her life and her child hood friend.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
AN: Okay we that took… how long to get out?? Well I hope it was worth the wait. There is going to be another chapter titled Close Call 2, that is the second day before the prologue that'll explain why Chichi hadn't been hunting etc. Also after the next chapter most of the PoV's will be Buruma and Vegeta though I will change to the others every now and again. Please R&R all of them are appreciated.
The person's POV in the Prologue was Chichi – as it was in the first paragraph here.
