Chapter 3





Nina and Anna walked along the side walk early in the morning. Anna had a smile on her face as she drank her slushy. She had a light brown jacket on and blue jeans with brown high hill boots. Nina with out a smile fallowed behind Anna. She had dark sunglasses on, a whit shirt that stopped just above her belly button, and dark tan paints with black shows.

"Do you think Jin will be okay at home?" Nina asked.

"Oh would you quit worrying about it Nina. I swear that man is all you ever talk about. Jin this and Jin that. What do you like him or something."

"We'll I just don't want to see anything happen to him. I mean we've been threw so much and, well I don't think I just want to let it all go because of some psychotic bozo."

Anna and Nina walked into a magazine store. Nina followed Anna as she walked over and picked up the latest addition of "What you MUST were." Anna began to walk to the check out line. Nina continued to talk as they went up.

"And you know we can't beat some one like that. Last time she attacked Jin no one could stop her. She left when she saw Kazuya but what if that doesn't work this time. I mean.." Anna seemed to be ignoring her. Nina picked up an issue on the latest guns. "And we don't even know what that girl is up to and-"

"Nina!" Anna said suddenly looking at her. "Don't you have to be some were. Like bugging some one else."

Nina looked at her watch. "Oh Sh_t your right. I got a music gig in thirty minuets. I've got to get down their." Nina turned around and began to walk out the door.

"Thank the lord." Anna said.

Anna began to walk out of the store looking at her new magazine. She could see Nina dash off threw the window. Then suddenly as she took one step onto the side walk when she looked up to see Xashi standing before her. Xashi looked drily upon her and punched Anna strait in the stomach. Nina froze suddenly as she heard her sister scream. Nina turned around. Anna lay on the ground coughing blood. Xashi walked towards Nina. People ran to Anna's aid. Nina wanted to help her sister but now she was the one in danger. Nina looked sadly at the emotionless monster. Nina ran at Xashi in raged. Nina tried to punch her in the face. Xashi barley moved. Nina stepped back and span around jumping in the air trying to kick Xashi in the face. When Nina's foot touched Xashi's face she was instantly dropped to the ground. It was like kicking a hard surface. Nina noticed her hand felt numb from the punch she had tried to deliver. Xashi grasped Nina's ankle and lifted her up into the air. Nina was stiff. She was swung into the air and then suddenly slammed into the cement. Nina's back had a long trail of blood going down it. Nina slowly stood up. She felt like she was about to collapse.

"You should be dead." Xashi said. However she did not seem to be socked in any way.

"Sorry... to disappoint you." Nina said struggling to keep conscious. "Why... are you... trying to hurt... us?"

Xashi stood still for a moment staring Nina in the eyes. She then slapped Nina in the face with the back of her hand. Nina dropped to the ground and did not move. Xashi walked across Nina and left her lying on the ground. Nina and Anna lay motionless on the ground.



Julia sat in the window seat holding her knees as she looked across the lawn.

"What are you up to?" Jin asked as he came over and sat next to her.

"Oh, just wondering what happened to Nina and Anna. They've been out for about five hours."

"We'll Nina had that music thing and Anna... I don't know something might of come up."

Julia stood up and stretched her back as she began to slowly walk away. "Something like Xashi?" She said looking back at Jin.

"What!"

"I don't know, but I have a bad feeling about all this."

"Were's my dad?"

"He left."

"When?"

"I don't know. I haven't seen him all day."

"Do you know what he was going to do?"

"No, not really."



"I took care of two of them. The sisters." Xashi said.

"Yes, I know. I saw you." the Hybrid replied.

"The blond one. She asked me a question. She wanted to know why I was hurting them."

"Don't worry about that."

"But, why are we? Why do you want my brother."

"I told you! Don't worry about it!"

The Hybrid stopped and stared Xashi straight in the eyes angrily.

"You claim that we are one and the same." Xashi said. "But why is it that you can feel emotion yet I can not."

"Because."

"I am human, am I not."

"Yes."

"And if a human can feel pain, happiness, anger... why can't I?"

"I..."

"You stole these emotions from me. Didn't you."

"Xashi! Leave me."



Nina sat up in a bed. She was in the hospital. She had bandages on her back and one on her left cheek. She felt no pain though. A nurse walked into the room.

"Sir." Nina said.

"Oh you're finally up."

"What day is it?"

"Tuesday the 27th. You've been out for about two days."

"Another woman. Is she hear? She was hurt like me. Red hair-"

"Yes she is here too. For how long is questionable."

"Why? Is she ok?"

"We'll actually we couldn't get her to wake up. Her heart isn't beating ether. I'm so sorry."

"Anna." Nina said looking at the ground.

"Actually you are quiet lucky. You shouldn't be alive now. Some how you survived the happenings. If what our eye witness says is true your quiet an amazingly strong person."

"Who?"

"Me." Kazuya said stepping into the room.

"This man has been waiting for you to wake up. He's been here this hole time. Also you are good to go after you sign these papers. All of your wounds healed up very quickly."

"I will be waiting for you in the lobby Nina." Kazuya said as he seat some close down on her bed.

Nina nodded her head not entirely sure of what was happening. The thought of Anna pained her deeply, but what about- "Jin?"
