PRE CHAPTER TO THE READERS: Gomen nesai for the horrible chapter before this. Trust, me hang with me and you'll see! This one is much better.
Chapter 2: The Testing of Kaname
Kaname stepped back, the realization of her actions suddenly made so clear to her. "Oh, Sosuke." She murmured, regretfully.
Later:
Ring Ring "Hello? This is Chidori."
"Hey Kana! It's Kyoko. We are supposed to go to the aquarium, tomorrow, right?"
"Uh...yeah."
"Well, I think you should invite Xiera."
"Why? I mean she is a friend but, why?"
"Well, just invite her. I think she would enjoy the aquarium. And with her nursing exams coming up, she could probably really use the break."
"Yeah, you are right. Let me check her calendar. Nope, nothing planned."
"Good. So, what are you gonna wear, Kana?"
"I dunno. Probably just a pair of jeans and a tee. Why?"
"I think you should look nice. Perhaps we can go to a fancy restaurant. Don't overdress!"
"Um..right."
"Yeah. See you tomorrow, Kana!"
Click
Kaname set the handset down feeling slightly winded. Although she normally got this feeling from Kyoko's rants, this was different. Something felt odd to her. HELP!! PLEASE!!! SOMEBODY!! Kaname fell to her knees. Screams ran through her head. HELP PLEASE!!! PLEASE!!! "These aren't..my...thoughts." Kaname groaned. HELP!!!
Ring Ring
The ringing of her phone broke the trance the voice had caused. Kaname struggled up and clutched her head. The ringing was so loud. What is it with my phone today? Kaname thought, frustrated as she picked up the phone for the fifth time that day.
"Hello? This is Chidori." Kaname answered, trying to hide her irritation.
"Kaname? Can you hear me?"
"Tessa? Are you ok?"
"No. Help! Please! They have injured Melissa"
"What? How can I help?"
"I'm not sure who, but someone has locked me in the captian's quarters of the sub. For a week! I can't get out of here! I looked around and I remembered I had my cell phone. Oh no. They are coming again. Ka...me.....ple....help...64 ..by..120..Sos...Mith....mis...its her!!"
Click Kaname set the phone down, adrenaline and terror surging through her. Earlier that day, Sosuke and her had talked it through. Sure, he apologized and the marriage was on again and no one was the wiser but...but... when Sosuke mentioned how Tessa acted strange...it just wasn't right. Sosuke wouldn't reply to her that way. Even he admitted it. Something in him..just..snapped. That is what he told her but something worse was under the surface. Kaname stood.
"I have to do something." Dating Sosuke for so long had taught her that she couldn't stand by while someone was in trouble. Dating him also taught her enough karate to hold her own against some of the better fighters and enough about weapons, war, and all other Mithril related subjects. Kaname crawled under her bed and retrieved the large black suitcase that held her training items. She opened the latches with a distinct click and pulled out her Codec radio. She clicked the frequency to 143.8 and said into the silence,
"Urzu 7? Urzu 7? This is Angel speaking. Over." Kaname waited with baited breath, praying, hoping he would answer.
"Urzu 7? Urzu 7? This is Angel speaking. Are you there? Over." Kaname set the Codec down, frustrated. Then, the crackling of the radio brought her attention back in focus.
"Affirmative. This is Urzu 7 speaking. Report situation, over."
"Urzu 2 is down. I repeat, Urzu 2 is down. Unidentified enemy forces have detained Delta 6(see footnote1) in the HQ bunk. Over."
"What are the coordinates? Over"
"Unknown, over."
"Angel? Rendezvous at point Papa Echo November Tango 145 in full gear."
"Roger and out."
Kaname clicked her Codec off. She fumbled with the buttons on her blouse and almost tore a hole in her skirt trying to unzip it. She pulled on the BDU's (see footnote 2 all you'all civilans) that she had stuffed in the suitcase. She pulled up her hair and tucked into the squarish cap of the uniform.
"I still can't get this." She murmured trying to clip her utility belt on.
What weapons should she bring? To heck with it, Kaname thought, I will bring them all. After looking at her map that Sosuke made her, she found that point PENT 145 was an empty penthouse apartment two levels down from hers. Kaname stood on her desk chair and pushed the ceiling tile up and out of the way. She jumped and pulled herself into the ceiling. After replacing the tile and moving several yards, military crawl, Kaname was out of breath. She scooted a little farther and decided to rest and listen to the noises of people below her.
"Yeah. Seriously, man. Chocolate and beer do NOT mix."
"Yeah, dude." Soon the slurred speech of the two drunks below her got quite irritating. Kaname crawled more and decided to just listen to the conversations below instead of concentrating on the physical exertion the crawling was costing her.
"Hakama way overprices things"
"C'mon we're gonna be late for the movie!"
Kaname crawled further, panting heavily.
"Unnnngh. MMMMMMM."
"Uh uh uh UHHHHH."
"Harder, baby, harder!"
Suddenly, adrenaline rushed through Kaname and she was able to crawl faster. She could have sworn there was enough blood in her cheeks to fill a million gallon jugs. Abruptly, the tunnel stopped. It forked. One way went down and the other went up. Kaname chose the way that went down and found that it stopped, again, three yards into it.
The elevator shaft.
6 is usually the number that ends the leading officer's code name in the military. THANKS PAPA FOR ALL THE HELP WITH THE MILITARY TERMS!!
BDU's are those camouflaged uniforms you see in all the movies.
CAMMIES!!
