A red sports car skid up to the scene just in time to watch all the officers abandon it. Yayoi stepped from the car and looked around. All around her, uniformed people were passing, mumbling about how from now on they'd believe in monsters. She couldn't help but snicker inwardly. There were stories of a purple haired man and black haired boy that had been with the monster. And of a blonde that had dove off the bridge. She scribbled down some notes and slid back into the car. An officer came up.
"Hey, you're from the NOS right? You hear about the shooting?" Yayoi continued to take notes as the man described to her what he'd seen. What had been going on. She was shocked to hear the description of a man that looked a lot like the one they were working for. The one who's daughter was missing. They needed to have a talk with him. Yayoi looked over to Riho who was sitting in the passenger seat. She'd been really quiet and wistful. It was odd for the ditzy vampire. Not to say that Yayoi didn't enjoy the quiet. But it was a little creepy. She closed the door to her car and turned on the radio.
"Riho, I think we need to talk to Mr. Reficul. I think he knows something about this. And about all those killings before." she turned to see if the girl had acknowledged her. It didn't seem so. Riho's face was blnk as she stared out the window at the crime scene. Her cheek rested on her hand, her hair falling in little ringlets that were bound at the top of her head. Her brown eyes were trained ahead of her in deep thought. Even though most of the time it seemed she wasn't capable of such things.
"Riho . . . what's up? You alright in there runt?" Guni popped out of Yayoi's hair and flew back and forth in front of Riho's face. She didn't move. Sighing heavily, Yayoi started up the car and drove off down the street. Her eyes glanced to the young vampire periodically. What was on her mind? Was she that worried that Shido was going to leave them forever? Did she really doubt Shido's love for them that much? It was sad really. Thoug there was a small stab of doubt in Yayoi's mind. Shido's master seemed to be a very . . . presuasive person. It would be very hard on the three of them if Shido left to stay with his Master and the others. It would be harder for the NOS to close cases. The death rate would be higher. the esteem of the organization would go down. Everything would be lost. And if Shido complied to his vampira instincts, that could mean he'd become a suspect as well. More than he had been before.
But on the other hand, Shido had always seemed to feel out of place among them. He tried really hard to act human. And sometimes it worked. But he was always so lonely, with no one who really understood what he was going through. When Riho became a vampira, Yayoi had thought that maybe that would quell some of his loneliness. But it hadn't. Or maybe it had, but only a little. Maybe it would be good for him to be amog his own kind. To really let loose and be who and what he was. That would be good for him, though not for those around him.
And what would she do if he did become a suspect and she had to kill him. Yayoi couldn't think of how much pain she'd feel killing him. It would be too much.
As she sped down the street, she remained lost in her thoughts of Shido. Then they faded to the case. The man they were working for, who was he? Who was his daughter? What had happened to her? Who was the black haired boy with Shido at the bridge? Why were Shido, Cain and the bot there at all? So many questions. And no answers.
