Chapter 3

//\\ thinking

Yay chapter three -does little dance- hope you enjoy.

It took a while to find Lt. Gruss's office, no thanks to the personnel. Once there the two pilots got a long briefing on the new kid. The important facts are as follows:

1)He was four years old

2)He had already killed several people including hardened criminals and police officers.

3)His exact description.

4)Every last detail they had on record about his past.

5)Everything they knew about the two girls he protects.

6)He was to be trained in one of Quatre's mansions, which was conveniently located on the out skirts of town.

-After hearing what he wanted Duo got up and left-

Duo: -eyebrows nit and his voice is serious- I gotta do this alone

//-Duo- Okay now if I when I was bein' chased by the cops, where did I hide with the crew. Alley's umm well no that wouldn't work to well here the alley's are kinda shallow, umm I know here they have sewers. That must be where he is. Crap! This city is huge, means lots of sewers, maybe even a buncha different systems. Damn this is hard\\

Duo was about this far along in his thoughts when he herd a cop yell.

Cop: Stop kid get back here with that.



Duo had tuned as soon as he herd an out of the ordinary sound, and saw a police officer, and a store owner chasing a kid who was running his way. Actually the kid ran right into him.

*switch to Kenshin*

//-Kenshin- Fuck Fuck Fuck how could I be so oblivious, I'm gunna get caught now.\\

Kenshin had run right into some guy he had never seen before, and this wasn't exactly a tourist area. So immediately he was very suspicious of him.

Cop: Thank you for catching this street trash -eyes narrowed when he referred to Kenshin-

Duo: How much?

Cop: Huh?

Duo: How much does what he stole cost?

Cop: umm $12.50

Duo:-hands him the cash, and the cop walks away-



Kenshin was really suspicious now. It showed too, because the "good Samaritan" asked the next question.

Duo: hey kid can't a guy do somethin' nice?

Kenshin: -arms cross-

Duo: Guess not, what's your name kid?

Kenshin: K-k-kenshin -nervous-

Duo: I'm Duo

//-kenshin- why don't I leave… cause he saved your ass that's why… but what if he tries to hurt me… he won't he's a good guy… why does he look so familiar\\

Kenshin: h-h-hi -very nervous-

Duo: Hey you wanna come with me and get some food, don't worry, I'm doin' this 'cause I was in your spot once, I wanna help.

Kenshin:-Knows he's not lying- o-o-okay.

Duo:-small smile, and holds out his hand-

Kenshin:-grabs his hand, he wanted help so bad he was desperate, he was even ready to take help from a stranger-

Duo strapped Kenshin into the back seat of the car and pulled the child lock into place, just in case. The car ride was silent, but Duo was enjoying Kenshin's look of awe and wonderment.



Duo had agreed to take him to Quatre's mansion, he would be trained there. The other pilots would be waiting for him to come back.

Duo: Hey buddy were here, -no response-

So he looked back to see Kenshin passed out in the back seat.
