Chapter 12 Two Assassins
Shikaku Kana's black eyes roamed the scenery constantly, preparing to attack at any moment, may it be a group of ninjas or an innocent kid.
"Calm down Kana," Mizuchi Kuina said for the hundredth time.
Kana relaxed, but only by one percent. Kuina sighed, knowing that Kana would never relax entirely, whether resting or sleeping. They were best friends since they were born practically and they were also the top assassins in the world. Shikaku Kana being the best out of the two. Kana was also Kuina's bodyguard. Well, partially, it was their mission. Kuina closed her eyes and remembered when Kana first became her bodyguard. They were separated during a mission and hadn't seen each other for years. They were forbidden to. It would have given their positions away. That would have been devastating.
Flashback
"I'm whose bodyguard?" Kana raised an eyebrow at the government official one cool, Sunday morning.
The government official ignored her question and continued, "I also will give you two a fake ID and a place to stay." He pressed a button on his table and spoke on the intercom. "Yoshikuno Kumiya, bring her with you."
"I'm sorry sir, but I can't find her. She disappeared all of a sudden," a voice answered nervously from the intercom.
"What? Kumiya, I told you to stay with her at all times!"
"I did sir. I only blinked and she disappeared."
Kuina had managed to sneak away from the watchful eyes of the woman who was called Kumiya. Right now, she was hiding behind the door, watching her new bodyguard. Kuina couldn't see the bodyguard's face but her/his posture looked familiar... Kuina jumped backwards and dodged as the bodyguard leapt and kicked down the door that Kuina was hiding behind. Kuina landed gracefully on her feet and raised her head to meet her bodyguard's eyes. Again, she saw a pair of eyes that looked incredibly familiar...
"KANA!" Kuina nearly ran over Kana, trying to hug her. Kuina squeezed Kana so hard that Kana began to choke, and that was saying a lot.
End of Flashback
Kuina walked through the doors of her "school". Her mission: act like a middle school student for the time being. Kana followed her in, her hand on the hilt of her wakizashi. She never went anywhere without it. Kuina was suddenly shoved aside as a group of boys pushed past her. They stuck their middle fingers at Kuina's face and walked past them, laughing hysterically. Kana prepared to slash them with her wakizashi but Kuina quickly grabbed the hem of Kana's cloak, stopping her in her tracks.
"It is all right, Kana. I'm fine," Kuina let go of Kana's cloak slowly. Kana glared at the boys' backs, angry that they had hurt her best friend, then followed Kuina as they threaded through knots of people. Kuina soon found and entered her homeroom, Kana tailing behind.
"Quiet!" the homeroom teacher shouted. Kuina flinched, rubbing her ears. Kana's expression never changed although Kuina could see that Kana's sensitive ears were in pain. Stupid teacher, we both can hear just fine! What's he trying to do, make us go deaf? Kuina asked herself angrily. Of course she kept her comments to herself. She was too well brought up. She was usually quiet about those things.
BRIIIIIING!
Stupid bell, Kuina and Kana both thought at the same time. A few people snickered at them as they walked by. They were snickering at the pained expressions on Kuina's and Kana's face. Only when they saw Kana's wakizashi did they shut their mouth. Kana started to twitch, the beginning stage of her anger. Kuina patted her shoulder, trying to coax her from getting mad. Kuina began to sweat a little, half expecting to see Kana bouncing around, slaying everything in sight because a group of people made her mad. When they leaned against the wall, a red-haired boy walked up to them.
"Hi, my name's Daisuke. Are you new here?" the red-haired boy said smiling cheerfully.
"And my name's Aya," another person said, this time a girl with indigo hair.
"Are they new?" another girl said coming over.
Kuina smiled. Such nice people, she thought. Kana thumbed her wakizashi. Kuina glared at Kana, daring her to execute a murder. "It's just a habit," Kana muttered under her breath but loud enough that only Kuina could hear. Then, they all heard the bell for class ring. All the students sat in their seats while Kana and Kuina leaned against the wall, trying their best to ignore the bell and not destroy it. They heard the teacher's footsteps and then his loud voice bellow, "QUIET!"
"Class, we have some new students," the teacher said.
"Again? Is our school popular or what?" one kid joked. As murmurs issued from the class, the teacher scanned the class
calmly, a nerve throbbing on his forehead.
"Please get to the front of the class if you are talking or maybe I'll just send you to detention!"
It became so silent you could hear a pin drop.
"Thank you. You two, my name is Mr. Nonobito,"
Kuina choked and covered her mouth. Kana looked away, trying to hide the laughter in her eyes. The name sounded funny and weird.
"You guys alright?" Mr. Nonobito asked them, looking worried.
Kuina nodded, still choking. Mr. Nonobito smiled anxiously and asked Kuina," Why don't you say your name and tell the class a little about yourself?"
Kuina headed for the front of the class. She faced the class and spoke loudly and clearly.
"Hi! My name's Fubayashi Tsuki! Nice to meet you all!" Kuina said brightly. She jumped when she heard Kana speak behind her. Kuina didn't hear her at all.
"My name is Ishimaru Ayumi," Kana lazily said. They were using fake names so no one would suspect that they were assassins.
Many guys whistled at them. I mean who could blame them? Kana and Kuina had nearly perfect bodies. Some girls looked jealously at them. Kana looked startled for a moment and slowly, her hand started reaching for her...
"Kana!" Kuina said sharply for the millionth time.
"What? I wasn't doing anything," Kana grinned mischievously.
Kuina shook her head again. Although they were alike in some ways they were also different. They were different as day and night. Yin and Yang.
"Well that's all I can say I guess," Kuina waited patiently.
Mr. Nonobito pointed to a table beside a brown-haired boy.
"Kobarouta Hiro," he snapped.
"Yes sensei?" the boy answered obediently.
"Is that table empty?"
"Yes."
"Ok, then. Tsuki and Ayumi sit at that table."
Kuina led Kana to their seat and sat down.
"Now who has the same schedule as these two? Somebody needs to help them find their classes." Mr. Nonobito read their schedule off of a little piece of paper.
About five people raised their hands. Kuina spoke up quickly, "I can find my classes myself Mr. Nonobito,"
Mr. Nonobito smiled. "That settled then?"
"Yes."
Mr. Nonobito resumed class as usual. The day went by slowly for Kana and Kuina. What a day for them.
