Chapter 8: Ignoring Truths
After dinner Amon and Robin had talked about the next few days.
" Your surgery should be ok," Robin said, " Are you nervous?"
" No, I know what the procedure is. This will be my second surgery," Amon replied
Robin looked at him and reached over and pushed his hair back. She turned his head towards hers and she studied his eyes.
" Amon, why are you running?" Robin asked
" I'm not running," Amon said
Robin nodded and said, " You've been running all your life, but now you can't run unless it's in a circle."
Amon grabbed his cane and looked at her.
" Why would I run?" Amon asked, " What ever it is that you have to say, just say it."
Robin stood up and did what her heart told her. She kissed Amon on his lips and did not break. Amon for once felt shock as the teen kissed him. She pulled away and looked at him.
" I'm going," she said, " Maybe you can think about what your running from."
She walked off and Amon stared at her as she left. He turned away and went to the bedroom in the suite.
" I'm not running," Amon said
He dropped his cane onto the floor as he walked on his injured leg.
" I never run," Amon said
Amon sat down and removed his shirt and tossed it to the ground. He slid into bed and turned off the lights.
Past
Amon pulled up files to get the replacement started, it was a little different now. He was on his own for now on, he had to learn the system all over through his own eyes.
" Amon, shouldn't we check out this murder?" Karasuma asked
" Yeah, three men dead, looks like they were torn apart," Kate said
Amon nodded and then looked into the information of the cases that were bizarre to the police. The door opened and Amon looked up from his work station to see Zaizen standing next to a young boy about 15.
" Can I have your attention," Zaizen said
Karasuma and Kate looked over at Amon and he shrugged.
" This is our replacement, Sakaki Haruto," Zaizen said
Amon slightly turned away and went to work, there was no need to greet the past.
" Hello Sakaki," Karasuma's voice said
Amon looked over and saw Karasuma standing in front of Sakaki.
" I'm going to be your partner, I hope that's ok?" she said
Sakaki nodded and Amon shook his head at the sighed.
" Kate and Amon are the other two your going be working with," Karasuma said, " But I'm your partner."
Zaizen walked off and Amon stood up and turned around. Sakaki looked at him slightly intimidated by Amon's dark appearance, but Karasuma just smiled.
" Amon's really not that bad he's just putting on an act," Karasuma said
" He's an asshole though," Kate said
Amon narrowed his eyes at his partner and Kate smiled. Amon walked off and poured a cup coffee and sat down.
" You really don't have to be an asshole you know," Karasuma said
Amon looked up at her as she poured a cup of coffee. He didn't say anything and looked at her. She jumped up on the counter and Amon looked at her.
" Sit in a chair that's what they're made for," Amon said
" I prefer to be higher than my boss," Karasuma said
" I don't have time for this, we have three murders," Amon said
" You can say hi to him a least make him have a reason to think something good," Karasuma said
" Get off the counter," Amon said
" Nope, not until you say hi to our replacement," Karasuma said
" Get off the counter," Amon said, " I don't have time for games."
" Ah, but you have time to be serious and grumpy," Karasuma said
Amon drank his coffee and said, " It's personal stop prying into it."
He set his cup down and pushed Karasuma off the counter. She gave him a look and put her hands on her hips.
" Your acting like a spoiled kid who didn't get his way," Karasuma said
Amon didn't reply he simply turned on his heals and grabbed his coat.
" Kate sends those files to my phone," Amon said
" Right away," she said
Amon walked downstairs and started his car, then took off and headed to the crime scenes. He looked at the victims and looked around for any clues to what the witches may have wanted. He looked at the ids and scanned them.
" Kate, get me information on these three men, and look into something called SWO," Amon said
" Right away," Kate said
He walked under the tape and walked into the alley and touched the walls seeing blood. He scrapped it off the wall and stuck the sample into his pocket.
" Amon the SWO is an organization for witches that are hiding from Solomon," Kate said, " It started back 6 years ago."
" Who started?" Amon said
" Shige, Ray," Kate said
Amon's eyes widen hearing that name and his hand balled up into a fist.
" He worked for the STN-J for years until he was killed in a hunt," Kate said
" Damn it," Amon thought
" Unlike you Amon, I can live forever," Ray's voice echoed
" We'll see," Amon thought
" Get me all you on the SWO I bet we'll find someone else too," Amon said
He turned off his phone and head back to his car and sat there, when someone taped on his window. He turned and saw Touko and he rolled down his window.
" How about lunch?" she asked
" I'm working," he said
" Looks to me your sulking," Touko said
Amon opened his door and got out. She smiled and reached up and hugged him.
" Come on, I'll fix you something at my place," she said, " It's not to far."
" I'll meet you there, I have one more thing to do," Amon said
" Alright," she said
She kissed his cheek and then he got in his car, he drove off. He stopped at a research lab that Solomon owned and gave it to a contact he had.
" It's not like you Amon to come into this place with dried up blood," his contact said
" Just see who's it is," Amon said
" Alright," this contact said, " You owe me."
Amon walked off and then droved to Touko's. He walked up to her apartment and knocked. She opened the door and smiled at him.
" I thought you weren't coming," she said
" I had something to do that took longer than I expected," Amon said
" Well, lunch is ready," Touko said
He slipped off his shoes and took his coat off. She pulled the blinds up to let some sunlight in and Amon sat down. She served up two dishes and came and sat by him. She poured him a glass of wine, then herself.
" Are you done your classes?" Amon asked
" Yes, I just finished for this semester, I'll be graduating soon," Touko said
" I hope your happy," Amon said
Touko looked at Amon and smiled and said, " I am very happy."
They finished and she pulled her legs up onto the couch and got close to Amon. He put his arm around her and leaned his head on her head.
" Amon, why don't you come with me," Touko said, " I don't want to go to a foreign country for a year alone. That's too long."
" My work ishere I can't," Amon said
She looked up at him and kissed him on his lips.
" Then you have to come visit me, I'll tell my father your needed over there," she said, " Just for some relaxing time."
Amon ran his hands through her hair and kissed her.
" I'll see," Amon said
Touko looked at him and asked, " Amon, what's wrong?"
" Nothing," Amon replied
She looked at him and then kissed him and Amon kissed her back. Small intimate kisses turned into passionate and free. He laid her down on the couch and kissed her more as he trailed his hands under her shirt. Her hands undid his top shirt and she slid it off his shoulders. Amon lifted her shirt over her head and kissed her again, she slowly raised his black under shirt, feeling his well built upper body. Amon looked at her as she sat up and pulled it over his head. She looked at him, then gently kissed him and ran her hands over his chest. He captured her lips with a deep passionate kiss as he trailed his hands behind her to unhitch her bra. Touko look at Amon and stroked his cheek.
" To my bedroom down the hall," she said between kisses
Amon stood up and lifted Touko into his arms and then walked down the hall as she told him. He shut the door and locked it and laid her down on the soft bed. He leaned over her and kissed her as he slipped his hand to her skirt and unzipped her skirt and undid the button. He slipped it off and kissed her, then trailed his kisses down her body and slipped the last article of clothing off. His hands gently rubbed her thighs and looked at her as she laid there.
" What's the matter?" Touko said
Amon looked at her and shook his head. She smiled and sat up and undressed him the rest of the way. She looked at him and smiled, then stood up and kissed him.
" Amon, you think to much," she said, " Don't think."
Amon kissed her and pulled her close to him and then gently laid her down, then over looked her. She looked at him so anxious to be taken, into his arms.
" Don't think," she whispered
Amon looked at her and placed himself over her and took her lips with his. There the two made love together, one rare moment Amon expressed himself.
After hours of pleasures both laid in her bed and Amon looked at her. She wrapped her arms around him. Her long hair over her shoulders as she laid on his chest. Amon stroked her bare body.
" Don't you feel relaxed?" Touko asked
" Yes," he whispered
Touko smiled and kissed him and Amon kissed her back. He then leaned over her and kissed her. She looked at him as he did so feeling his strong hands feeling on her as they once more shared pleasure for a little bit longer.
By 5 Amon kissed Touko and left and headed back to the research lab. He walked in and his contact handed in the information.
" Thank you," Amon said
He left and turned on his phone and saw that he had missed calls. He headed to the office and walked in seeing everyone at work.
" Amon, we've been trying to call you," Kate said, " Where have you been?"
" Out," Amon replied
Karasuma looked at him and folded her arms. Amon walked to the back and of course his shadow followed him.
" Had fun?" Karasuma asked
" I was working," Amon said
" It's 5:30and you left at 11:30. You last contacted Kate at about 12:30 and then that's when connection went out," Karasuma said
Amon handed her the paper and she looked at them.
" Familiar with this man?" Amon questioned
Karasuma looked at the picture and nodded and Amon grabbed the papers. He turned to another page.
" What about him?" Amon asked
" Yes, what's your point?" Karasuma questioned
" My work has me doing this while you and my damn partner sit on your asses trying to train the replacement," Amon said
" You ran out," Karasuma said
" That's not the point," Amon said, " Your suppose to take your partner and train him on the field like I have you."
Karasuma bit her lip and looked at Amon. He poured a cup of coffee and some spilt on the results.
" Damn it," Amon thought
Karasuma grabbed them and dabbed the papers.
" See what anger does to you?" Karasuma pointed out
Amon sipped his coffee and Karasuma looked at him. She looked at his shirt, and reached up seeing a piece of fuzz. She grabbed it and as she did, she smelt a sweet smell.
" You men don't know how to get rid of evidence," Karasuma said
She reached up and wiped some lip stick off his neck as well.
" I guess you saw Touko….or should I say did her," Karasuma said
" That's not your concern," Amon said
" It is if it effects your work," Karasuma said
" Get off my case," Amon said, " I know what I'm doing."
Karasuma narrowed her eyes at her boss and grabbed his coffee.
" You need this, so I won't apologize for doing this," Karasuma said
She threw the coffee on Amon.
" Wake up and smell the coffee Amon," she said and stormed out
Amon sighed and dabbed his face with a wet cloth, and cleaned his shirt off.
" What happen to Karasuma? She looks pissed," Kate questioned
" It doesn't concern me," Amon simply said
3 weeks later
Amon fired at a witch and Karasuma chased after him.
" Damn!" Karasuma shouted chasing after him, " Amon's going in alone Sakaki Kate get ready to back him up!"
" Got ya," Sakaki said
Amon kicked in a door and walked in prepared to fire.
" Amon, come in," Sakaki called
" I got him, you stay back Rookie," Amon said
" It's too dangerous!" Karasuma shouted
" Shut up and let me do my job," Amon said
Suddenly, lights came on and Amon looked around.
" Witch Hunter Amon, my what a surprise," a voice said, " I almost didn't recognize you. You've grown."
" Amon stand down," Karasuma radioed
" Your not my superior," Amon growled
" That's orders from your damn Superior, you stubborn ass!" Kate shouted
" Do you think I listen?" Amon questioned
Amon empty his orbo and replaced it with more orbo.
" I'm going to kill you, just as I promised 6 years ago," the voice said
" Come out here and fight you coward, I know everything about you, I know you betrayed the STN-J so you could be free. I know you are responsible for those witches' deaths," Amon said, " So, Ray it's time we meet face to face."
" Very well," Ray said, " Orbo won't kill me, nothing will….I am immortal."
Ray walked out of the shadows and looked at Ray. Amon released the orbo and reloaded with something different.
" What are you going to do, shoot me?" Ray sarcastically questioned
" That's exactly what I'm going to do," Amon said
Ray smiled and drew a gun and looked at Amon.
" Let me tell you Amon, you won't last a second, you are half and half is not worth living….I was already given the order to kill you by Mr. Zaizen that day. The witch hunt that put you undercover to baby-sit that brat Haruto was just away so I can hunt you. Yumi and Keishi were just in the way, Yumi actually saved you, but didn't save herself. So, I'm here to finish you off and the STN-J," Ray said
Amon narrowed his eyes and came at Ray and fired a shot. Amon took it in the shoulder and continued. Amon fired at shot and missed and Ray laughed he shot Amon in his thigh.
" Don't worry Amon, I'll take care of Touko, and your new partner…oh and Yumi's niece," Ray said, " I bet she screams just like her aunt."
Amon looked at him and fired at Ray's weapon, Amon breathed deep. The doors opened and Karasuma, Sakaki, and Kate came in.
" Amon!" Karasuma shouted
" Stay back," Amon growled
" She's beautiful Amon, she is an exact copy of her Aunt," Ray said
" Miho Run!" Amon shouted
" What?" Karasuma said
Ray threw Amon to the ground, Ray put his foot on Amon's head.
" I want you to watch as I kill your hunters Amon, saving her for last, I have special plans for her," Ray said
" Amon," Kate said
Amon struggled and lifted the gun pressed the gun on Ray's ankle.
" Your going to have to kill me first," Amon said
He pulled the trigger and shot Ray in his ankle. Amon got up and fired another shot in Ray's arm.
" What kind of bullets are those?" Ray growled
" Titanium Orbo," Amon said
Ray looked at Amon and fired a shot hitting Amon right side. Karasuma ran towards Amon. Amon breathed deep and kicked Ray in the face. Karasuma pulled her gun out.
" Stay back!" Amon shouted, " That's an order."
Ray looked at Amon and laughed and Amon looked at him. Ray stood up and looked at Amon.
" Look at you, full of bullet holes," he said, " Save yourself."
" No," Amon said, " I have hunted many to finally come to the one who has killed three to get to me."
Amon shot Ray in his chest and Ray looked at him.
" I killed her," Ray said, " Because I wanted you to kill yourself."
" I didn't," Amon said
Ray fell to the ground and Amon stuck his gun into his holster. He fell to the ground and Karasuma looked at Amon. She knelt down next to Amon and laid his head on her lap. Amon looked at her as he fell into an unconscious state
Present
Amon opened his eyes and sat up, he looked out the window feeling the cool air enter his room. He laid down and fell asleep once more.
" Memories to many," he whispered, " Why?"
