Trouble Begins

"Okay Robin, all you have to do it light all the candels in the least amount of time, in the least amount of trys. Good luck." Michael said over the headset to Robin who nodded. She was being tested and trained almost daily since she arrived in Japan. It's been three weeks and nothing had changed. She wrote two letteres to Italy, but all came back to her saying the address is wrong. Calling is not an option due to the high price of the long distance bill. She called once, got an answering machine, and when the bill came in that month, Touko got all pissed.
"Go!" Michael said as Robin focused on the tunnel ahead of her which was full of tall white candel sticks. Amon held a stopwatch and started it the minute Michael said 'go'. Within seconds, Robin had started lighting the candles. At first, one at a time, then two at a time, then all the candles were lit. "Done." Michael said and amon stoped the clock. "3.4 seconds." Amon said into his headset which Robin smiled. She felt proud. She had beaten her own record by four seconds. "Better, but still needs work." We're done for today. Close it up robin." Amon erased the clock, wrote the data down on a clip board and walked away. Everyone else had gone home. He had to work over time to test and train Robin. "I'm heading home. Make sure she cleans up down there." Amon said to Michael as he left the room.
Robin knew where the camara was and she turned and smiled. "Nice job Robin." Michael said. "Amon says to clean up." Robin blew out all the flames with one try. "Where is Amon?" Robin asked. "Just left. Said he was heading home. But knowing him, he's gonna top at Harry's for his usual late night Coffee and whiskey." Michael chuckled. "And to think, he drives me to and from hunts." Robin made a scared face whihc made michael laugh. "I'm gonna log off now Robin. I've been up late for the past three nights. I think I'm gonna get to bed early tonight." Michael said as he shut off the monitor. "You? Bed early? Yeah right." Robin laughed. "Good night robin, see you tomorrow. Walk safely." Michael said. "G'night Michael." Robin said then Michael took off his headset and locked down Raven's flat.
"Evening Miss Sena." The doorman at the appartment said as Robin reached her appartment. She flashed her ID card and he opened the door. "Good evening. Is Touko home yet?" Robin asked. "No. But she left you a message at the desk." The doorman smiled and pointed to the desk. "Thank you." Robin walked over to the desk and retreved her message.
'Robin. Gone out. Be back late. Don't wait up. Will eat while out, probably. Make yourself something. Leftover pizza in frige. See you in the morning. Ignore the phone tonight. Touko. PS I'm not with Amon. So don't bother asking tomorrow'
Robin smiled then headed upstairs. She knew touko was with amon. And she didn't care. All she did was ask a simple question and Touko blew up. When she asked Amon, he blew up too. Acculy, she did care. She had a thing for Amon but refused to say anything. Robin blushed at the tought of her with Amon. She locked the door, took off her coat and boots and went into the kitchen. She pulled out the leftover pizza and heated it up using her power. She knew Touko hated that, but Touko wasn't there. After eating, robin turned the TV on and watched some news. The news woman was rambling about some lawer who had just won his seventh case in a row. Something about him being a lawyer for ten years and winning just about all his cases. The laywer came on and talked a bit. Robin yawned and made fun of the jacket he was wearing. It was a very gotty white fur coat what went down to his knees. Robin kept laughing saying to herslef how Kat would hve a feild day if she saw that 'thing'. Next was weather, rainy for the next week. When sports came on, robin went to bed. She undressed and put her phone on the night stand. Within minutes she was asleep. She never even heard Touko enter the appartment at around 12am.
The next day, the hunters were given a stange mission. They needed to act like employees at Harry's to catch a witch. The witch was none other then Harry's son. When Robin and Dojima were picked to be waitresses, Amon was set up outsie to sit in his car as lookout. Robin liked the outfit she was given to wear. It was a black skirt with a black halter top. She felt home in an outfit that let her show some skin. Outside, Amon wasn't paying attention to the misson and was busy talking on his phone to...Touko. He was saying something on the lines of how he felt it safe is they didn't see each other again. When Touko asked if he was leaving her for Robin, Amon hesitated then defensivly denyied it. When he hung up. He got out of his car and dojima and robin were walking twaords him. "Whats wrong?" He asked. "Nothing. We're done. It's over. Sakaki caught him and we're done." Dojima said as she headed for her car then drove off home. Amon watched Dojima then turned to look at Robin. The streetlights were just starting to come on and it was starting to get chilly. Luckily, it stoped raining only an hour ago. "Can...can I get a lift?" Robin asked then her cheaks blushed slightly. "Get in." Amon said then drove her home.
The following week, the hunters were in Raven's Flat just sitting around. "SHQ has a read out on a witch in Tokyo park." Michael said, scaring everyone half to death. "Dojima, Amon and Robin." Takie it." Zaizen said. "Yes sir." Amon said as he and the two girls exited. On the way, Robin stared out the window. Amon watched her. He'd been noticing something different about her. The last few hunts, her powers have gotten stronger. Tests and training sessions have gotten over with quicker. Zaizen orders then to stop because it now only takes Robin .5 seconds to light all 15347 candels. Amon asked her if she's doing something different, but she says she isn't and claims she doesn't notice a difference.
"Dojima, take him by surpirze from behind." Amon said as Dojima got out of her car and too off running. "Robin you try a full frontal fire attack." Amon pointed in the dirrection in which he and she would run. He pulled out his gun and they started running. The three of then cornered the witch and Dojima fired a warning shot. The witch paniced and attacked her. Amon fired and hit the witch in the leg. Again, the witch paniced and came at Amon and Robin. "Robin, now." Amon yelled. Robin pulled out her glasses and put them on. She quickly focused her power on the witch and fithin less then a second, the witch was burning in a blaze less then five feet from Amon. "Yes!
Dojima exclaimed and headed over to Robin and Amon. "Robin?" Dojima ran over to Robin who had just mystirusly passed out. "Don't stop." Amon put up his hand and Dojima stoped. What he feared might happen, happened. "She's not one of us anymore." Amon closed his eyes then backed away twoards his car, Dojima followed him. "She's a witch"
The next day, Robin awoke in Raven's flat with Michael standing over her. "Hey, welcome back." Michael smiled nd handed her a cup of water. She sat up and drank. "You've been out for quite a while." Karasuma said as she looked to Dojima and Sakaki. They just shrugged. "Wha..what happened?" Robin asked confused. "Don't know. Wish we did, but seems the only person who does know is MIA." Dojima looked down at her magazine. "Who?" Robin asked. "Amon." Sakaki replied. "He dissappered shortly after you passed out. Droped you off then vanised"
Robin looked over at Dojima. "You were there." Robin pointed at her. "But I stoped at Harry's on my way back from Tokyo park." Dojima defended. Micheal walked away fom robin and back over to his computer. "Amon came striaght here, droped you off, then claimed he had someplace to go." Michael stated. "I wonder where..." Karasuma said in a saracstic voice. "Who knows. He's so strange. He's probably behind all of this." Sakaki replied. "Why would Amon...?" Robin began. "I mean come on, you passed out mysteriously, Amon vanised without a trace. What else should we suspect?" Michael said. "Your wrong." Robin protested. "Oh please Robin. We all know you like him. But it's time to face the facts." Karasuma strted yelling. "Now lets not get hasty." Sakaki said. "Your on his side?" Dojima asked. "I'm on no one's side. I just want to know the facts." Sakaki argued. "Well whatever is going on, at least Robin is wake." Michael said. "Robin, do you feel okay?" Karasuma asked. "Yes, I'm fine. Just a little tired." Robin said, still defensive. "Good, I'll take her home." Dojima said, then grabed Robin coat and handed it to her. "Let's go robin. Touko's waiting"
Dojima drove Robin back to her appartment then headed back to Raven's Flat. upstairs, Touko was just getting up. "Oh, Robin. Hi. Um...how you feeling?" Touko asked, unconcerned. "Fine." Robin replied. "Just tired." Touko smiled slightly, then went into the kitchen. Robin headed straight into her room. She was tired, andscared. "Where is Amon?" She thought to herself. "What happened to me? What is going on?" Robin thought herself to sleep.
