Well, here I am with the next chapter of "Up In Smoke!". I hope you all
will enjoy it. I certainly liked writing it.
Chapter Twelve: Jail Bird
Bernardo looked over at the target that Francisco was aiming at.
"What happened with the men that we sent out to deal with those two creatures?" Francisco asked as he set down the large rifle down on a table.
"They're dead." Bernardo replied simply.
"That's too bad, do you want a cigarette?" The other man offered without showing any emotion.
"Yes, thank you." Bernardo replied softly.
Francisco handed him a cigarette and lit it for him. "What's going to happen now?" He asked.
"We're not going to use your guns just yet, we want to hold off on using it until the prototype is fully tested." Bernardo replied. "I've called in the heavy arms team to take care of them." He added.
"Suit yourself." Francisco remarked.

Momo looked up at the ceiling; she was counting the panels in the wood- work. She smiled and laughed to herself. She rolled over, the bed sheets clinging to her body.
Rei looked up as Momo nudged him. "What is it?" He asked calmly.
Momo rolled onto her back and laughed. ".I see. a snail crawling across the edge of a strait razor." She spoke in a very serious manner. ".Crawling across the edge. of a _straight razor_... and surviving." She finished and then laughed.
"You really are weird." Rei muttered and then closed his eyes again.

Smith looked up at the door and squinted. "Is this the right place?" He asked his partner as he looked up at the massive tower.
"It has to be, it's the only 'Tower' out here." Johnson replied.
"Alright then." Smith replied and pressed the com button to the door.
"Hello?" replied a decidedly female voice, a certain amount of uncertainty audible in the voice. "Who's there?" It then went on.
Smith smiled and looked at the speaker. "Hello, I am Agent Smith" he announced. "And this is Agent Johnson." He added.
"We're here on behalf of the Windian Bureau of Affair." Johnson added.
At this point, a smaller door- within the larger ones- opened up and Momo stepped out.
The two men looked at the strange woman and then exchanged a glance between them. Smith looked back at Momo. "I'm sorry, but I wasn't aware that there were any Grass Runners in the area." He remarked.
"As far as I know of, I'm the only one." She replied uneasily.
"Alright then." Johnson replied.
"Anyway, we are in the area investigating reports of unusual activities." Smith announced. "We have reason to believe that a large-scale criminal organization is at work here, with possible ties to drug distribution." He explained.
"They're recently moved down here. reasons that we do not yet know." Johnson added.
"So, we'd just like to know if you've seen anything unusual, anything at all." Smith asked.
"Well, no not that I've seen, nothing at all." Momo replied rapidly.
"Well, alright then, we'll see you later." Smith replied.
"We'll be in the area if you do see anything." Johnson added.
Momo watched as the two men walked away, she then closed the door and slid down onto the floor and held her head in her hands. "Oh my god, what's going to happen to me. I'm too young and cute to go to jail!" She exclaimed as she imagined a little chibi version of herself being dragged off in handcuffs and thrown in jail.
"No!" she exclaimed. "Things like this shouldn't happen to beautiful geniuses like me!"

Smith and Johnson walked away from the tower and turned to look at one another.
"She's hiding something." Smith remarked.
"She has to be, we'd better keep an eye on her." Johnson replied.
"Do you think she knows about Ginorelli?" Smith asked.
"No, and I think she doesn't know about the other Grass Runners, either." Johnson replied.
"I wonder what one of them is doing this far away from their homeland." Smith remarked.
"Who knows..." Johnson replied with a shake of his head.

Raven, the Dark Knight watched as the two men walked back down the rode. "Drug distribution, criminals, I don't think I like the sound of this, master Lore." He said, out loud.
"This news is troubling to me. I think that it would be best for you to keep on eye on this tower. I may need to reveal myself, if things get out of hand, but for now I want you to try and keep things under control." Replied a voice, telepathically.
"Yes, master Lore." Raven replied.
~End of Chapter Eleven~
Well, did you like the chapter? I sure liked writing it! Anyway, I hope you'll leave me a review and let mw know what you think of it.
And, I hope that Tio updates "Untouchable" soon, seeing as how she's such a great writer, and it would be a crime if she didn't update it again.
Also, my other fics- "The Cell" and "Jenova" and "The Gunslinger"- are coming along well and I'd love any feedback you guys could give me on them.
Later, thanks,
Bojack
