Jake: right then.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

It was the next day and Kiran was out for blood. Seems her buddy Peter had skipped town, meaning she had ta sell the rock to Black Spiral from back in Cali. This was terrible because BS and Kiran had never gotten along at all. So she was taking her frustrations out on local gangs. She walked down a dark alley with her hands in her pockets and a scowl on her face.

"Stupid son of a bi-" she stopped as a group of six or seven guys blocked the exit to the alley.

"Whoa there girlie, where do you think your going?" the leader asked.

"Home, got a problem with that" she replied.

"Not so fast, you know your not half bad lookin" he said.

"Oh gee, you're too sweet" she said flatly.

"You look good enough to eat." He walked towards her and smiled. He was just inches from her face now and he whispered into her ear. "How about you and me go find a hotel?"

"How about no?" she put up her fist and punched him in the gut. He doubled over and she pulled her switch blade cutting his throat. He fell and blood poured across the ground. "Okay boys, who's next?"

"Oh shit man, she's for real" one said. Kiran smirked evilly and licked the blood off the knife.

"Come on, don't be such wimps." The tallest one ran at her but she side stepped and held out the blade which cut him across the side. He fell to the ground and screamed out in pain. The rest of the gang bolted. Kiran walked over to the injured boy and looked down at him. "Pathetic." She spat on him and walked away. She hopped onto the top of a stone wall and walked along thinking about what she'd just done.

"Theft is never far from murder. And who cares if they can id me, I'll be gone by then. Black Tide will take care of that. Damned gangs and their damned politics. Makes me wish I was dead."

"That can be arranged" she turned and saw a figured dressed in black robes pointing a gun at her. She raised her hands and smirked.

"you guys don't mess around do you?" she asked. "But what, exactly, have I done?"

"Nothing yet, but we know what you've done before."

"Mmm, you're speaking of forces that weren't under my control" she said.

"I mean the jewels" he snapped.

"Enou Kenata (I know that) do you take me a fool?! Look if you're after the rock you're barking up the wrong tree" she warned. She kicked the gun out of his hands and jumped for it. She landed on her hand with the gun in the other one. She stood and pointed it at him. "I'll let you live if you deliver a message to me."

"What message" he asked.

"Tell your bosses that if they ever try this shit on me again, I'll kill 'em" she said. He nodded and ran off. "Everyone wants to mess with me today! What is it about me that just seems to attract assholes?!" She smiled and put the gun in her pocket.

"And now I hall have to find some other source of entertainment." She muttered to herself. She turned a corner and saw Jax walking along with Yugi. "What the?! Well, so this is where Jax has been hiding. Heh, I think I just found something to do today." She sank into the shadows with an evil grin.

"So Yugi how come you've been hanging out with me" Jax asked

"We're friends and right now I thought you needed someone to talk to" he answered.

"Oh. Okay, just glad its you." She muttered. He blushed slightly. "That's not what I meant! I meant since you're so smart. And you don't give friendship speeches every other hour." Yugi laughed.

"Tea's just trying to help."

"Yeah, well, keep her away from me please. Or I might have ta kill her." She said. They both laughed and all of a sudden the sky grew dark, and cloudy.

"How did that happen, it was sunny a minute ago" Yugi asked. Jax's eyes widened, she'd seen this before.

"Its Kiran" she answered. "She's found me."

"Didn't think you could hide forever did you?" Kiran was hovering in the air above then with black feathered wings. "Why Jax I dare say your boyfriend doesn't quite measure up." She laughed while Jax cringed slightly.

"Kiran, I'm sorry but I can't hang with you anymore!" Jax said boldly. Kiran looked at her with venomous yellow eyes and a forked tongue slid out of her mouth every few seconds.

"that'sssss undersssssstandable" she hissed. "But remember Jax no one isssssss ever truly ssssssafe from the curse of the Dirant. You know that." Kiran landed on the ground in front of Jax.

"Kiran, there's no such things as curses" Yugi said.

"Yes there are" Jax whispered to him. Kiran grabbed Jax's wrist.

"You know what thissssss meanssssss, don't you?" Kiran asked.

"Yes, just get it over with." Jax said. Kiran waved her hand and a jeweled dagger appeared in the air next to her. She held it above Jax's wrist.

"Kiran stop!" Suddenly Yugi was taller and had darker eyes. This wasn't Yugi anymore, but Yami.

"So pharaoh, you of all people speak to me?! I'll bet you don't even know half what I do" Kiran snapped.

"Yugi, don't do anything" Jax hissed. Kiran took the end of the blade and cut a long gash down Jax's arm. But it didn't bleed; it just instantly became a scar. Kiran bowed and Jax nodded.

"Keep out of trouble Jax, and watch your boyfriend's temper"

"He's not my-"

"I know, but be careful anyway." She said.

"Kiran, when will you stop" Jax asked.

"Stop?" Kiran's eyes darkened and so did the sky. "Stop? I have no intentions of stopping until this world pays for all that it's done. This world is a cruel place, I'm a cruel person, it seems only fitting that I do the Earth's work. Now if you don't mind, I have several organizations after me." With that she flapped her wings and rose, disappearing over the roof of a house. The sky cleared and Yugi became normal again

"What was that about?" he asked.

"That self righteous bitch!" Jax said. "Doing the Earth's work my ass, she's on a vengeance run. Damn it! Theirs no stopping her now! She'll have this city dead in less than two days!"

"How do we stop her?" Yugi asked.

"WE don't, but I know of only one person who can stop her when she's like this."

"Then lets go get him" Yugi said.

"We can't, he's in Cali."

"No, he's not" Jax turned and saw a tall, muscled, tan guy standing behind them.

"Rint! Why are you here" Jax asked.

"To save the world."
