***************
Chizaru hid in the shadows watching a man in a black business suit and trench coat. He was Ryotaku Kouichi, according to Kritiker he was an associate of Masafumi's, but whether he was involved in Masafumi's activities was up in the air. He was a young man, mid twenties, good looking with short straw blonde hair and blue green eyes that held kindness in their depths.
He started walking through a park, taking a short cut to where his supposed meeting place with Masafumi. There Chizaru would get him and end this whole thing with one swift movement.
The sun was sitting making the park shadowy in its light. Ryotaku stopped and without turning he spoke to Chizaru. "You know, it would be nice if you would stop following me."
Chizaru jumped out of the tree she was in face him. "How did you know?"
"That's not important, what matter is you're trying to kill Masafumi-sama and I'm going to make sure you don't." Shot guns slipped out of his trench's sleeves and into his hands, he spun to fire at Chizaru who dodged just in time.
He's fast, she thought. She pulled out some of her shuriken and threw them at the business man. He evaded them easily and fired again.
"Perhaps I should introduce myself; I am Sünder of Schatten, Masafumi's new assassin group." He put one of his guns in his pocket and held out his hand, the skin split down the center and pulled back revealing a red dome like thing inside his hand. "I'll be seeing you." The thing in Sünder's hand glowed and fired a laser stream a little to the left of her. "Damn, contact."
Chizaru fled as quickly as possible.
*********
Ouka, Michiru and Sakura were sitting on the couch of the Schwarz apartment. Since their abduction three days ago they had been talked at, leered at and made of (Crawford Farfarello and Schuldig respectfully), all three of them were tired and humiliated.
Ouka looked towards the kitchen where Omi and Nagi were cooking dinner. Well, she thought, at least they feed us.
'Why wouldn't we?' Schuldig asked mentally, Ouka hated not being able to see who she was talking too, 'If we wanted you dead I would have done it when we caught you.'
Omi raced put of the kitchen, giggling as Nagi threw rice at him, also laughing.
'Well, I got to make sure we actually get dinner.'
And Schuldig left her mind.
************
Somewhere in Europe three elderly people sat in front of a TV monitor, on it was Crawford.
The first elder, the oldest and baldest as Schuldig like to say, sat with his hands in front of him fingers crossed. The second, the only woman, was sipping some tea, and the third, the youngest out of the three of them, watched the screen.
"So," First said, not looking at the screen but at his hands, "You have got us replacements for after the ceremony, I can assume?"
"Yes sir," said Crawford without missing a beat.
"Good," Second said putting her tea down, how are you coming along with finding a host for our leader?"
"We have found the perfect host madam," Crawford smiled at her.
"Oh wonderful!" she said clapping her hands together, "We have not seen Lord Zero for several centuries, and the time of resurrection is near, it makes me feel young again!"
"Soon we will be young again," Third smiled.
"However," Crawford broke in, "There is the matter of collecting her. And the replacement bodies are also all female."
"Do not worry yourself about that. We have existed in many different forms, as long as the body meets the minimum requirements it will do fine," First said.
"Of course."
***************
Omi was back in the kitchen, this time with Farfarello and Schuldig between him and Nagi. Of course this didn't stop them from throwing things at each, seeing that the adults found it amusing to watch.
Farfarello turned his eye to the girls on the couch. They were able to move around as they wished, but they still seemed too scared to. He shrugged and went back to watching Nagi and Omi throw water and bubbles at each other. It was nice seeing Nagi acting more like a child then an adult. Insane killer he may be but Farfarello wasn't heartless. If you could say anything good about him you could say he was a trustworthy friend.
A slash of cold water hit in the face, breaking his train of thought. He blinked then grabbed a sponge that just so happened to be nearby, soaked up the water on the floor, and poured it onto the laughing Schuldig's head. Thus starting a water war between all four of them.
Crawford walked in the apartment, looked in the kitchen, said, "If you let dinner burn I'll kill you," half heartedly, sat down in his chair, pulled out the newspaper and started to read.
Sometime during the water war Schu got a hold of Omi and they were now making out on the floor."
The three girls stared as Nagi and Farf continued the battle.
Ah, the daily life of Schwarz.
***********
Sünder walked into Masafumi's laboratory and was attacked by his fellow Schatten member Sense and Geist. He smiled at the two younger assassins and gently shoved them of him. "So what have you two been up today?"
Geist answered, "Masafumi-sama had us help him observe the effect the serum thing had on regular human cells from different hosts, apparently it has a different affect on each person, depending on their biological make up." The sixteen year old yawned, "He also spy on Weiß and Schreient some more."
Sense held out her wrist and the flesh moved to form a blade. "Masafumi- sama also upped our abilities. My wrist blades are now 6cm longer."
Black claws extended from Geist's fingertips where nails should have been. "He claws stronger so I won't break them as much."
"Well that's good," Sünder said running a hand through the boy's silky black hair and smiling. "Have you guys seen Rettung anywhere?"
Sense nodded, "Masafumi-sama's probably upping her powers as we speak."
Masafumi walked in the room fooled by a beautiful woman with waist length hair the color of white sand, and deep violet eyes.
Geist rushed towards her, "Rettung, what's up? Did you try out your new powers yet?" he continued to babble out questions making the others in the room smile.
Masafumi looked to Sünder, "Anything interesting happen today?"
"Yes. I met one of those Schreient girls today. She seemed to think I would lead her right to you."
Masafumi frowned, "Did you get rid of her?"
Sünder shook his head, "No. My contact decided it didn't want to be in my eye and I missed."
Masafumi was silent for a moment. "Well then let us fix that problem."
*********
Ken sat with Shun working on math. Math had become a daily torture since the first day Shun attended school, and that was only three days ago.
"OK, last problem," Ken said "y=2x-5, graph. Sounds simple enough."
"Says you."
Ken sighed, "Come on."
Chizaru walked in looking disheveled. "I need a drink, now."
Shun and Ken looked up at her, "You look like shit." Ken commented, "Did you get him?"
Chizaru rummaged around in the fridge and pulled out a can of beer, opened it and drained it in a couple gulps. "I didn't even get near him. That contact of his, Ryotaku, works for him."
"What do you mean?"
"He was our replacement," she said quietly.
Ken was silent for a moment, letting Chizaru clam down before she went on. "He's some sort of weapon, when I attacked he fired a plasma pulse at me."
"A what?"
"A plasma pulse, Masafumi theorized that humans could become weapons, using biological lasers he called plasma pulse."
Ken stared at her wide eyed, "You're joking!"
Chizaru shook her head, "He called himself Sünder of Schatten. That probably means he put together a new team of assassins."
Aya entered the room while taking off his apron. He took a look at the other's faces and went straight to the heart of the matter. "I take it you didn't take care of him."
After explaining what happened Aya sat at the table, his poker face in place. "This is not good."
"No kidding," Ken said under his breath.
"We need to tell Kritiker about this."
Chizaru got up and headed to the basement, "I'll take of that. Shun when I get back up were going to start weapons training."
"Hai."
************
Crawford sat in the middle of his bed, eyes rolled back into his head as he saw into the future. He snapped out of trance and lurched foreword. He crawled across the bed to empty his stomach into his trash can.
"Damn, Bradley, it's been awhile since you had such a vision that powerful," Schuldig said from the door way. "Don't worry about the others they're cleaning up from dinner."
Crawford was silent, he felt sick.
"So what was it about? Is it the end of the world again?"
Crawford opened his mouth to say something, felt another wave of nausea and closed it again.
"When your better then. Guten Nacht."
He left closing the door softly behind him. "Nicht gut. Dies ist sehr
schlechte."
Omi walked up to Schuldig. "Everything alright? You look worried."
"Nein, ich OK."
"You sure?"
"Ja."
Omi looked doubtful, but Schuldig brought him into a hug. "I stole a pair of Farfie's handcuffs; you want to go try 'em out?"
Omi face turned a little pink, but he nodded and the two of them walked of to their room.
*************
In the bushes outside the entrance of an office building Ken, Shun, and Nanami waited for Sünder to come out. It was dark and somehow Kritiker managed to figure out that Sünder stayed overtime on Fridays.
"Hello," said a clam tenor voice from behind them, "If you're waiting for Sünder I'm afraid to say that you aren't going to get to see him."
Ken turned around to see a youth with a pleasant smile on his face.
"You're a member of Schatten." Ken stated.
"Yes, I'm Geist," he extended his claws and went into a fighting stance, his crystal blue eyes filled with excitement. "Let's get this shit on."
He sprung forward with amazing speed and tackled Ken. Ken went down with a loud thump, got his feet under his attacker's stomach and sent him flying over his head. Geist did a flip and disappeared.
Nanami held her umbrella at the ready with Shun at her back, his tomahawks prepared to fly.
"Over here." Geist suddenly reappeared in front of Shun and swiped at the younger boy with his claws. Shun ducked and tried to drive one of his tomahawks into the other assassin, missed and got kicked in the stomach. Nanami turned around and created a small cut on Geist's arm. She threw a jab at him causing him to back into a tree. She threw rapid attacks at him; while he dodged most of them she did get a few good ones on him.
He smirked at her as he dodged another one and then only shadows were where he once was.
"Nani?" she whispered, the shadows moved, just enough for her to make out the direction of Geist's attack. She did a back flip, narrowly missing a fatal blow.
Ken rushed foreword, both hands with bugnuks drawn, and slashed at the shadows.
Geist reappeared in a tree, "Not bad."
"We're just getting started."
***********
Meanwhile Karen and Juri were going up Rettung.
"That can't be all you got." Rettung said with a smirk. So far she had managed to dodge all of the other women's attacks. She gave Karen a sideways look, "I'll show you how to use whips correctly."
She held out her arms and let her hands fall limply in front of her, from the top of her wrist joints a pair of fleshly whips appeared.
Karen grimaced and looked away, it was kinda freaky.
"Are you ready?" She drew back her left hand and her biological whip followed, she then brought it down and struck Karen with it, it then wrapped around her neck, chocking her.
"Karen!" Juri cried and raced for her fellow assassin.
"You want her? Take her!" Rettung said with a nasty smile, lifting Karen in the air and causing her to crash into Juri, sending them both into the building wall.
"Not what you expected is it?"
*************
Asuka and Yoji weren't fairing any better against Sense. No matter how many wires he threw at her she just cut them with her wrist blades. Asuka couldn't even get close to her.
"Ok," Yoji whispered, "I'll distract her, you go in from behind."
Asuka nodded, and when Yoji shot his wires at the girl she ran as fast as she could to get a good hold on her.
"Nice try," Sense said as she jumped in the air and did several three-sixty turns, blocking all of Yoji's wires with the wind force and catching Asuka in the chest. Blood started blossoming from the chest wound. Sense landed with a soft thud and looked at the woman, her face blank.
"ASUKA!" Yoji hollered.
*************
End chapter twelve. Along with this chapter I have also revised all my other chapters, so that it will be easier to read. A couple of you said it was getting confusing jumping from one paragraph to one that was completely different, so I hope this makes things better.
