Chapter2: Reopened Case and Dangerous Emails
1 Week later
Sakaki and Robin had continuous dates with each other, but no matter how many dates they went on, Robin couldn't forget about Amon. She tried so hard, but things pulled her back to him. She was falling deeper in love with Amon and falling in love with Sakaki.
" Thanks for the movie," Robin said
Sakaki kissed her and then she got out. She walked to her apartment, there she prepared for bed.
" Amon, why have you been ignoring me?" she thought
Robin pulled out her phone and called Amon, to her surprise he picked up this time.
" Amon," she said
" Robin, please I can't have you keep calling," Amon said
" I need to see you," she said
" Why?" Amon said
Robin paused for a minuet and said, " I need to know something."
Amon was silent and then he sighed.
" I'll pick you up," Amon said
" Alright," Robin replied
She hung up and held the phone close to her. She sighed and then quickly dressed and waited for Amon down stairs. Amon pulled up and she got in and he pulled out.
" What do you need to know?" Amon asked
" Everything that happened about a year ago," Robin said
Amon sighed and looked ahead then pulled into an abandoned parking lot. He turned to Robin, seeing she had felt that he was hiding something from her.
" A year ago after the factory fell and we escaped," Amon said stopping
Robin looked at Amon and grabbed his hand. Amon turned away and breathed deep. He stared out trying to figure out how he could word what he wanted to say to Robin.
" Robin, you will feel differently after I tell you this," he said
" It can't be any worse then what I'm feeling now Robin said
" What are you feeling?" Amon asked
Robin gave his hand a squeeze and said, " I'm going insane being apart from you, being ignored by the man that I have fallen deeper in love with. I feel hurt that you would hide something from me that might help me understand why your pulling away from me."
Amon nodded and turned too her and saw sadness in her eyes, she wanted to believe that what Amon was going to tell her was only a simple thing.
" Robin your feelings for me, It's hard for me to accept them," Amon said
" Why?" Robin said, " You care for me don't you?"
" Yes, I care for you more than just my partner," Amon said
Robin smiled and knew it was true he cared, but she knew he did since he kissed her the way he did at his apartment. It wasn't because he was sick, it was because he cared. Amon leaned to her and gently stroked her cheek, he looked at her.
" I never want to harm you Robin, I told you I would watch out for you, protect you from danger," Amon said
Robin pressed his hand to her cheek and closed her eyes feeling the warmth from his hand.
" Amon, please tell me," she whispered
" I was foolish what I did, it was my fault allowing it to happen. Since then I have been trying to protect you from myself," Amon said, " The month prior to our return to Tokyo, I had told you how I felt about you, but that was all I expected to say or do. I was wrong, we did more than what I wished to happen. We slept together, but I blamed myself for letting it happened. You were young and still are."
Amon pushed her hair back from her face and stared at her. She stared at him feeling as though the air had been knocked out of her. She wasn't sure how to respond to Amon's confession, but she was glad he did tell her. She still had the same feelings for him and she wouldn't let him go.
" Amon," she said
" Hm," he said
" Do you still feel the same for me?" she asked
Amon nodded and said, " I will, but I can understand if you don't feel the same for me."
Robin didn't say anything, she reached over and kissed him. Amon kissed her back and gently pulled her to him. He pulled away and ran his thumb over her lips.
" Robin, I will wait for you, but don't let this effect your relationship with Sakaki," Amon said
" Does, Sakaki know what happened?" Robin asked
" No, Only Karasuma does," Amon said
Robin nodded and kissed him again.
" Amon, would you ever sleep with me again?" Robin asked
" Only if you wanted me too, I pushed you into sleeping with me last time, but I will never do that again," Amon said
Robin nodded and grabbed his hand and entwined her fingers between his.
" I won't ever let you go Amon," Robin said, " I'm glad you told me what happened."
Later Amon took Robin home and he kissed her, then looked at her.
" Don't let any of this effect you tomorrow," Amon said
" I won't, good night Amon," she said
She walked up and Amon watched her go into the apartment building before driving off.
Two days later Robin was online and she received an email from someone strange. The email read, You must chose one and stick with him, or the other will find out. Hope your ready to make a decision cause I'm going to show you the truth through the past. Ever wondered what your lovers were like in high school. You'll find out soon. Robin deleted the email and breathed deep. Sakaki tapped her and she jumped and Sakaki looked at her.
" What's wrong?" he said, " You seem jumpy."
" Nothing," she said covering up her fear
She grabbed the cup he handed to her and her hand began to shake. Sakaki looked at her then sat down. Robin sipped the hot coffee and sat it down.
" Are your sure your ok?" Sakaki said
" I'm fine," Robin said assuring him
She placed her hand on his face and smiled. Amon watched from the back and Karasuma looked at him.
" So, why do you keeping staring at them?" Karasuma asked, " Jealous?"
" No," Amon said, " I'm looking out for Robin."
Karasuma nodded and said, " Her little watch dog strikes again. Release the watch dog."
" Your not amusing," Amon said
" Relax Amon, it's not like Sakaki is trying to seduce her," Karasuma said
Amon sighed and sat down and looked at some files. He dropped one and then reached down for it. He saw a picture clipped onto it and he picked up.
" Who is this?" Amon asked
" Oh, that's an old case one that never really got investigated into. The witch supposedly dead so, we closed the case," Karasuma replied
Amon looked at the picture and then sat it down.
" Or perhaps vanished," Amon said
" What do you mean?" Karasuma asked
" When we were hiding out there was a woman, that looked exactly like this. She hasn't aged either, she looks like she's 20 or maybe 25," Amon said, " She seemed to be watching Robin and I everywhere we would go."
" Maybe she has a twin sister," Karasuma said
" No, even twins have a way of telling the difference," Amon said
Karasuma sighed and then looked at the file.
" Then do you think we should reopen the case?" Karasuma asked
" Yes," Amon said
Karasuma nodded and then headed to the front and handed the file to Michael.
" We're reopening the case, get me all you can," Karasuma said
" Alright got ya," Michael said
Robin looked over and saw Michael typing up something. Sakaki stood up and read over Michael's shoulder.
" Hey why are we looking at this one?" Sakaki asked
" We have a new lead," Michael said, " I guess."
Amon walked out and walked over to Robin's desk and knelt down to her level. She turned and looked at him with a smile.
" I need your help," he said
" Alright," Robin said
" Come with me," he said
Robin got up and they walked out the office. Amon looked at her and she looked up at him.
" Amon, what's this case about?" Robin asked
" That's what I need you for," Amon said
" Oh, alright," Robin said
He led her downstairs and to the garage, they got in Amon's car and he pulled out. He drove down to a building in town and both got out. They headed up to the top floor where a restate business was. A woman greeted them and Amon walked over.
" I'm looking for Kyra, Reiko," Amon said
" I'm afraid she's not here anymore, she's in our northern branch, but I can email her and tell her your looking for her or perhaps I can help," the woman said
" We'll make the trip, but please tell her that she will have some clients," Amon said
" Should I give her your names?" the woman asked
" No, just do that for me," Amon said
The woman nodded and Amon and Robin walked downstairs.
" So, she's the witch that we're hunting?" Robin asked
" Yes, though she has cause no harm yet we must hunt her before she harms anyone," Amon said
Robin nodded and Amon grabbed her hand.
" Tomorrow, we will head up north," Amon said, " It's a long day and we'll stay there for awhile," Amon said
" Are the others coming?" Robin asked
" Later, we will notify them when we're ready," Amon said
Robin nodded and Amon and Robin got in his car. Amon contacted Michael.
" Any word?" Amon asked
" Well I hacked into her computer, she looks like she's had contact with several people already, her power is strange she can transport you anywhere, and I mean even out of this world. You become someone else," Michael said, " You two be careful."
" We will, send word that we'll head up there tomorrow," Amon said
" Try leaving now, it looks like she's going to make an attack or connection with someone," Michael said
" Alright then we'll go now," Amon said
Amon looked at Robin and grabbed her hand.
" I'll bring you home and you pack what you need, have Touko bring you over to my place," Amon said, " I need you to dress as casual as you can."
" Alright," Robin said
Amon reached into his pocket and handed her something.
" I think we'll need these," Amon said
Robin opened her hand and revealed a ring, she smiled and slipped it on her left finger. Amon slipped his on and kissed her cheek. He dropped her off at her apartment and Robin packed quickly and showered then had Touko bring her over to Amon's.
" You two stay safe," Touko said
" Thanks Touko," Robin said
Robin got out and grabbed her bag then walked upstairs to Amon's apartment. There she knocked on the door and Amon let her in. His casual clothing suddenly didn't seem strange anymore to her, though she chuckled slightly at the sight. Amon pulled his black hair back and grabbed his bag.
" Alright let's go," Amon said
They walked downstairs and Amon took Robin's bag and loaded it. He loaded other equipment and stuck it in the back. Robin got in and Amon got in and started the car.
" Alright Karasuma we're on our way up," Amon said
" Alright you two resume the identity of a married couple," Karasuma said
" We'll be in contact," Amon said
Amon pulled out and drove off and their trip up to northern Japan began. Amon drove straight through without any stops, he made reservations for the hotel. Once they got there it was late, but they had their things brought up to the room. Amon paid the bell boy and shut the door. He and Robin set up the equipment and got it online. Robin looked at Amon as he entered a code that Michael gave him to hack the restate agency's computers for information. Robin set some coffee on his desk and he looked up at her. He smiled and grabbed her hand.
" Your not missing an important date today?" Amon asked
" Sakaki and I were suppose to go get some coffee and walk in the park, but he understands work," Robin replied
Amon nodded and took a sip of the coffee and Robin sat down next to him. He showed her what he was looking for and let her take over while he went and took a shower. While she was watching she attached the laptop and checked her email. She saw an email from the same person who emailed her before. She hesitated to open the email and then clicked it. This time the email read, So, you have chosen who you wish to be with, are you married? Do you love him or do you love the other one? Sounds like a drama that a teenager goes through everyday in life. Let me take one of them off your hands. Two is a crowd so why not invite a friend?." Robin breathed deep and closed the email then sighed. She looked at the monitors to see any activity, but found it quiet. Amon walked out the shower and he had wet hair totally pulled back. She looked at him and smiled. He wore some black pants and a button down shirt, which wasn't buttoned. She got up and walked over to him, she wrapped her arms around him and he looked at her.
" Robin what's wrong?" he asked
" I feel, like someone's watching me," Robin whispered
Amon looked at her and lifted her chin up so their gazes met.
" Why do you feel that way?" Amon said
She took his hand and led him to the laptop and opened her mail. She showed him the emails that she received. He then sent the emails to Michael to analyze, and Amon placed a locator on the email address to find out where the emails were coming from. He looked at Robin as she watched him, he placed his hand on her shoulder and gave it a squeeze.
" Alright your safe now," Amon said
Robin nodded and Amon kissed her head, she got up and went to take a shower. Amon sat down and watched for a little while.
Back at the STN-J
Sakaki looked at the computer screen and found some information on the witch. He found that her power was more of a special illusion. He sent the email to Robin and then sent her a message. Sakaki got up and walked in the back to find what Karasuma found.
" So, we're going up there tomorrow?" he asked
" No, we're waiting on Amon to tell us what to do," Karasuma said
" Why do we have to wait for him, he's not the only one in charge," Sakaki blurted out
Karasuma looked at Sakaki and said, " Amon is the senior hunter, we do listen to him. Sakaki how can you say something like that?"
" I don't know, I just have a bad feeling," Sakaki said, " I feel like something's going to happen up there. Like the witch may already know they're up there."
" Alright it's your bad feeling, but if I get in trouble for it. I blame you," Karasuma said
" I can go?" he said
" Be careful Sakaki," Karasuma said
Sakaki nodded and ran down to the elevator and stood there. Once it opened he got in and looked at his watch.
" I'll have to drive tomorrow," Sakaki said
He got out and ran right into Doujima.
" Hey, Sakaki," Doujima said
" Sorry," Sakaki said running out
She sighed and went upstairs and sat things down.
" What's wrong with Sakaki?" she asked
" I gave him his first big assignment. Actually he's just adding to the help," Karasuma said
" I guess that's good," she siad, " But knowing him he'll cause trouble."
" Maybe he's a good distraction," Karasuma said
" Who Sakaki, yeah right?" Doujima said
Karasuma looked at the other files for victims that the witch had killed or attacked.
Hotel where Amon and Robin are
Amon ordered room service and Robin walked out the bathroom. Amon looked at Robin as she did so. She wore jeans and a pink sweater shirt, Amon got up after ordering.
" I order some room service, so it should be here soon," Amon said
Robin nodded and brushed out her long hair, then tied it back into a pony tail. Amon walked over to her and she smiled sweetly as he did.
" Don't worry about the email, it's not going to harm you?" Amon said, " It's probably a prank."
" It knows about us," Robin said
Amon wrapped his arms around her and she laid her head on his chest. He embraced her as though he feared for her too and he had failed to protect her from these emails. Robin looked up at him and pushed back a fallen strand of his hair.
" Your so different with your hair pulled back," Robin said, " You give off this tough guy image. I don't know why, you just don't seem like the mysterious Amon, but some one who can handle business."
" Interesting," he said
The room service came and Amon got it in and Robin made room for it at the table. She looked at the well prepared warm Japanese dishes and Amon got sake for after dinner. Robin looked at him and shook her head not seeing him as the type of guy to drink sake. Amon and Robin split each dish and Robin poured a glass of water for both.
" Thank you Amon," she said
" Your welcome," he said
They both dinned with satisfaction. After dinner Amon poured a small glass of sake for Robin.
" I don't want any," Robin said
" A little taste," he said
Robin looked at him and said, " It doesn't smell really good."
Amon smiled and took a sip and he nodded.
" It's actually ok," Amon said, " Try just a sip."
Robin looked at him and took the glass and pinched her nose. Amon reached over and moved her hand from her nose.
" It won't taste good if you do that," Amon said
Robin smiled and took a sip, she made a face and Amon smiled. She licked her lips and shook her head.
" Nasty," she said
" It an acquired taste," Amon said
Amon put the glass down and he kissed her cheek.
" A least you tried it," Amon said
Robin looked at Amon and nodded.
" How can you drink that stuff though?" Robin said
" Like I said it's an acquired taste," Amon said
Robin got up and got a cloth to clean off the table and Amon looked at the clock. It was nearly 10 and he was tiered, but he put an alert on the computer for anything strange that might happen. Robin changed into her night clothes and brushed out her hair then walked to one of the double beds. She pulled down the covers and then the sheets. Amon was finishing up putting alarms on the computer and he walked over to the other double bed. He pulled down the heavy blanket, removed his shirt and slid into bed.
" We'll wake up early tomorrow," Amon said, " We start our undercover work."
Robin smiled and cuddled into the blankets. She closed her eyes and Amon looked at her then turned off the lights.
By 1 the alarm sounded and Amon got up and Robin opened her eyes. She saw Amon get up and head to the computer. He opened the email and read the email
I know your tracking this email, but I'll keep it short since you can't locate me. Prepare yourselves if your going to wake my sleeping power. One that will teach you a lesson about how life really is back in the day.
Amon did a trace on it and found out the location anyway. He smiled and printed the address out.
" We'll see," Amon whispered
He put the laptop down and walked over to the bed. He saw Robin sitting up and looking at him.
" Everything's ok," he said
" I hope so," she said
Amon walked over and sat down beside her. He leaned over and kissed her trying to lay her fears aside. This would be only the second time they've been away from the STN-J for a hunt. Robin kissed him back and laid her head down on his chest. He stroked her arms and then lifted her chin up. Robin stared at him and Amon gently kissed her, then she kissed him back. Amon put his arm behind her and gently laid her down as they kissed. Amon kissed her and he leaned over her, as they kissed passionately Amon's hands trailed down her body. He stroked her body gently, then reached under her night shirt and touched her bare body. Robin moaned escaped her lips, she ran her hands over his bare chest. She sat up and Amon looked at her and she kissed him again. He kissed her deeper and she wrapped her arms around him. He kissed her and kissed her neck and ran his hand up her shirt again. She ran her hands through his hair as Amon gently kissed up her neck and back to her lips. He again laid her down and did the same as he did before. Robin moan and kissed him every time he touched her the way he did.
" Amon," she whispered
He looked at her and she stared at him. He kissed her neck and she gasped as he did.
" I love you," she whispered
He met her lips and pulled away. She stared at him and he then sat up, she did too and leaned her head on his chest. Amon embraced her and then kissed her head.
" Get some sleep," he whispered
" stay with me," she said
Amon nodded and walked on the other side then slid in. He kissed the back of her neck and ran his finger up her back. She turned around and smiled, she stared at him and kissed him.
"Sleep," he said
Amon pulled her closer and Robin laid her head by his. He wrapped his arms around her and kissed her forehead. Robin closed her eyes and Amon covered them both. He sighed and closed his eyes.
By the next morning Amon had ordered room service for them while Robin continued to sleep. Amon checked the emails and found there was two, but neither one were alerted. He opened the letter and saw it was just a letter to Robin from Sakaki and the second was just a notice from Karasuma letting them know that Sakaki was on his way up to help out. When the room service came and brought it in quietly and then sat beside Robin. He leaned over and kissed her head and stroked her cheek. Robin slightly moaned and pulled the covers over her face.
" It's too early," Robin moan
" It's quarter of 9," Amon said, " There's work to be done."
Robin pushed the covers down and looked up at him. She sat up and Amon gently stroked her cheek.
" You got a letter from Sakaki," He said, " And he's coming up to help out."
" Oh, ok," Robin said
Robin looked around and Amon brought over something warm.
" This looks good," Robin said, " Did you eat?"
" No, I was waiting for you," Amon said
Robin smiled and pushed his fallen hair from his face. She took a few bites of the eggs and hash browns with pancakes. Amon ate his and kissed her cheek.
" I'm going to run and get some ice," Amon said, " Go ahead and get ready."
Robin nodded and Amon got up and walked out the room. Robin got up and grabbed some clothes and took a shower. Robin cleaned up and then dressed. Amon came in and Robin was putting her hair up. Amon walked over to her and looked at her in the mirror.
" I guess you got the ice," Robin said
" Yeah," Amon said
Amon stood beside her and she turned around and faced him.
" Amon, how long are we going to be here?" she asked
" Hopefully only three days," Amon said, " That's all."
Robin nodded and said, " I already feel home sick."
Amon gave a small smile and kissed her cheek. He walked off and Robin finished her hair. She then got up and grabbed her coat and walked out with Amon into the hall. Amon called Michael for information.
" So, it's time to visit our witch," Amon said
