Chapter 8:

Assumed Criminal

Hwoarang's eyes opened slowly to the darkness of the early morning. He heard water running in the bathroom. 'Must be Kazi. Hmm..... maybe I'll go scare her.' Hwoarang got up and silently and carefully without a sound, stepped towards the bathroom door. Then he suddenly busted open the door,

"HA!" he screamed, only to find the shower running empty, "Huh-"

He suddenly hit the other wall and started to turn around expecting an enemy....

"BOO!" Hwoarang jumped and hit his head on the low ceiling. He turned around cursing,

"Fucking piece of-" Hwoarang turned around and sweat dropped.

"Hahahahahahahahahahaha," Kazi grabbed her stomach and cackled.

"........."

"Gotcha." Kazi smirked holding back her laughter.

"........." Hwoarang pounced on Kazi and they began to roughhouse. They wrestled for about fifteen minutes.

"Heh heh heh...." Hwoarang laughed as whole-heartedly as he could through his heavy breathing. They both were lying on their backs breathing heavily. A few scratches were all that came from their scuffle.

"I still got ya good" Kazi gave him a mischievous smirk, the one she was so good at, that one and the chaotic evil one. They lied there looking at the ceiling for a while and finally Hwoarang got up and took advantage of the running shower.

The midday sun beat down upon the streets and was mildly warm being cooled every few minutes by a breeze. Kazi walked unaware down the bustling streets. Her baggy army pants scraping the ground and ruffling a bit around her Hunters Green tennis shoes. Her gray jacket barely stood out at all. The afternoon came and the streets were fairly normal, a few people here and there. Kazi was still wandering around, getting the feel of the city when she suddenly heard a voice,

"FWEEZE!" Kazi held in her laughter.

"Sup, Denise?" She turned around after she said that and realized it was Denise with Lei.

"How'd you-" She started.

"I'm sickick." Kazi said smirking.

"What?" Denise was confused.

"PSYCHIC. P-S-Y-C-H-I-C. " Kazi said sounding it out.

"Yeah, right...." Denise rolled her eyes.

"Um, so, you're gonna capture me?" Kazi said casually.

"ENOUGH TALK! LET'S GET HER!" Denise yelled out of frustration. Lei and Denise ran after Kazi.

The young Japanese youth walked silently down the street. He stopped at the corner when he suddenly heard gunfire coming towards him. He saw a young boy, or was it? No, a girl? 'A girl?!' The man thought. The young girl was dressed like a military boy and was running from two cops with a grin on her face. As she came closer his eyes widened, 'Is it? The same, girl? Has to be.' She yelled back at them,

"HAHAHAHA.... You have to be quicker than that!" Kazi yelled. The man suddenly realized that this girl, was messing with, Lei, 'Super Cop', as he's so called. 'Crazy, why did she look so different....' He thought. Kazi ran out into the traffic and jumped in the hood of a car. Denise and Lei skidded around the corner and jumped out of the way onto the sidewalk. Kazi ran across the tops of the cars as they sped the opposite way. Kazi was grinning all the way. Denise, Lei, and the mysterious man could only watch in annoyance. Kazi suddenly jumped atop an eighteen-wheeler, and grasped the sidebars of a bridge going across the street, and swung herself up onto the platform. They could all still see her clearly. Kazi pulled the skin under her left eye down and stuck out her tongue in a childish manner, laughed, and ran off into the distance.

"DAMMIT!" Denise yelled. As she and Lei took of after Kazi, trying to trace her. 'Wow.' The guy stood there in shock, 'That girl.... A criminal? What a side show.' he ended his thought sarcastically and took off to find her.

"Hahahahahahahahahahahaha," Kazi kept laughing as she ran down the winding streets of downtown Tokyo, Japan. Suddenly she bumped into someone. "Whoa..." She said stumbling backwards a few steps and dusting herself off. She looked up, "Hwoarang?"

"Huh? Oh, Hey!" He said.

"Um, I gotta go," She replied and just when he was about to ask her why she was in such a hurry, she said, "On the run."

"Kazi tell me you're not a criminal!" he yelled after her.

"No! I'm not! Not exactly!" She yelled back as she disappeared into the street.

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

"Alright, so, that's everything. Can ya do it?" Denise asked. The dark mysterious man nodded. "Great." She replied.

"Remember my request." The man said as he got up and headed out of the door. It wasn't a question, it was a command.

The mysterious man walked outside and with amazing speed he ran through the shadows of the approaching night as the blood red sun fell unto and below the earth. Making haste to complete the task ahead, 'Criminal, huh? Her? I would have never thought.' his mind wandered as he headed for the docks.......
