Chapter Four: Oh Wow his head is on fire!

Nich, Myou, Durgil, Tobias and Maurilla all exitied the plane in the manner of royalty visiting another country. Nich and Maurilla got into the first limo in line, followed by Durgil in the second and Tobias and Myou in the third. They made the agonizingly slow journey towards the center where the ball was being held. As they pulled up, each of them put a very small earpiece in so that they would be able to keep in touch. Maurilla and Nich stepped out first. Nich whispered, barely moving his mouth, just loud enough for the sound to travel into the earpiece. "We are to find her and leave imidiatly. We've got much more important things to do." Maurilla tugged on his arm.

"How the fuck are we suppoed to get in? It says invitation only...and I never saw you hand them any invitations..."

"When you've got friends as high up as I do, you can get into anywhere..." He grinned and lead her to the door where the doorman stood straighter at the sight of Nich.

"Mr. Telkner! I was told you would be here, sir, and that I was to let you and whomever you brought inside immidiatly."

"Thank you very much Mr...?"

"Jones sir! Michael Jones, at your service!"

"Well, Mr. Jones. I don't suppose you were givin any other special orders to let others in without invitations now were you?" My. Jones looked around as if he were making sure no one was listening.

"I heard sir, that a few others were to be let in. Are you expecting someone?"

"Yes, a Miss Amaya Kaminari. I was wondering if she had arrived yet?"

"Yes. Beautiful Japanese woman. She's wearing a short gold dress with a cape. Last I saw of her, she was over by the senators table, speaking with Senator Berk Anders."

"Thank you my good man. Have a pleasent evening!"

"You too sir!" And with that Mr. Jones went on checking invitations. Maurilla rose her eyebrow and looked up at Nich. Before she could open her mouth to say anything, they both heard Durgil over their earpieces.

"Amaya Kaminari? I thought we were looking for Shizuka Takai?"

"We are, but of course she wouldn't use her real name on the job now would she?"

"On the job?" Maurilla interupted Nich before he could explain what he ment.

"There! I believe I see her..." She nodded descreatly towards a tall blacked haired woman. She wore a golden halter style dress down to her knees. She also had on a cape that was the same colour and length of the dress. She seemed to be talking animatedly with a man who looked like he spent a little too much time in the sun. She smiled as if she knew something he didn't, but the man didn't seem to notice. Nich saw Tobias and Myou speaking with someone else, another man, possibly older than the one 'Amaya' was speaking too. Durgil was smiling, surrounded by younger men, all compeating for her attention. Nich and Maurilla walked closer towards The Senator and their next recruit.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Linc Syam kept a close eye on Senator Anders. He would have to go. Too much money and power to be wasted on an old man. In fact, all of the Senators would just have to be exterminated. Linc sighed and grinned sadistically. "Poor, poor old men. They have no idea how short their lives are about to be cut." Linc caught eyes with two of his men, positioned across the room. HE nodded, they nodded, and so the chain of nodding went on. Pretty soon, everyone of Lincs men had gotten the signal. Once again, Linc smiled evily as he walked out of the door. "And so It begins..."

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Maurilla and Nich reached Senator Anders and Shizuka just as a waiter walked by. The waiter stopped, holding a tray out for them.

"Wine?" Maurilla smiled sweetly.

"Of course." She took a glass just as the others had, but stopped when it reached her nose. Sniffing it, she could tell something wasn't right. She quickly placed the glass down on the table and stopped Nich from drinking his. He looked at her, and she shook her head just slightly. When she noticed that Shizuka and the Senator were looking at her funny, she smiled. "We're going out of town tomorrow and can't aford to be the least bit intoxicated, right dear?" Nich smiled.

"You are correct as always. By the way, Senator Anders, it is, of course, a pleasure to see you once more."

"Ah, the pleasure is all mine my boy. Have you met my lovely young friend here?"

"No, no I don't believe so."

"Well, this is Amaya Kaminari. She's one of those 'Japanese Priestesses'." 'Amaya' laughed and shook hands with Nich. She smiled and looked at Maurilla.

"So, I know him. Now I must know you." Senator Anders nodded his head enthusastically.

"Yes Nich. Introduce us to your lovely companion."

"If you insist. Berk Anders, this is my wife, Maurilla Ignatus." Maurilla smiled again and shook hands with the Senator. When she went to shake hands with Shizuka, Shizuka bowed her head slightly and whispered loud enough for Maurilla to hear.

"It is a pleasure to meet you." Maurilla looked at Nich out of the corner of her eye. She opened her mouth to speak, but was interupted by gunshots and screams...

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Tobias and Myou had been trapped by an old, OLD man. They didn't know who he was, but he seemed intent on making them stay where they were. Myou tries to walk around him but out of nowhere one of his friends came. They stood out of politeness and made very idle chat. Over hear earpeice, Myou heard Maurilla and Nich talking about Shizuka, or as she calle ehrself tonight, Amaya. Myou smiled at the older men and turned to Tobias. "Excuse me, brother, but I believe I see someone I know. I must run off." His grinned and looked in the same direction as her.

"Why yes, sister, I do believe we know that man. Shall we go and say hello?"

"I think so..." The two older men tried as hard as they could to stop them. Finally one of them made a mistake. They grabbed Myou's arm and jerked her backwards. "HEY! Get off me! What the hell do you think your doing!?"

"Saving your life little girl. If you wanna live you'll stay right here."

"I don't believe you. Now...Let. Go. Of. Me." Her eyes narrowed and glinted in the moonlight streaming from the windows. "You've got exactly three seconds to release me. After that..I just don't know WHAT I'll do...Three......two......" But before she could say 'one', gunshots and screams rang out...

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

She had never seen so many boys in her life. Durgil was surrounded. They were bringing her drinks and food, begging her to dance, or begging her for her number. She just smiled sweetly and played along with it. Every now and then she would look over at Tobias and Myou and then over to Maurilla and Nich. 'They don't seem to be having much fun at all.' she thought to herself as she danced with her seventh or eight partener. The song ended and they crowded her again. "I'm sorry boys, I think I need to rest for a minute." She sat and they once again began bringing her drinks. It went on like thi from the time she arrived untill the screams began. She looked over and saw people falling from being shot. The shooters were all around the room, not really aiming at anything. Reaching down into her bodice, she pulled out a small daggar and ran over to the first shooter she saw. Sneaking up behind him, she silently slit his throat and moved on to the next one.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

As soon as the screaming and shooting had started, Tobias had pulled out the first gun on his body he could reach and began shooting as well. Myou, he noticed, hadn't even pulled out her dagger. Claws had formed on her hands and she was just slicing them, saying something in japanese everytime she did. Silver blades seemed to come out of her hands and slice the men into little peices. Her black hair had come loose and was whipping wildy around her face. Tobias watched in awe as she picked up one of the huge, very heavy, tables and smashed a few of the men with it. Turning away, he grabbed another of his guns and started shooting again. It seemed the more men they killed, the more men appeared. 'This is going to take forever!' He quickly sunk backwards into a shadow and moved behind the men as soon as they appeared. He would shoot them and then go back into the shadows so they didn't know where he was....

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Nich had taken Senator Anders and some others, then proceeded to lead them out of the building. This left Maurilla to take care of the advancing men on her own. She smiled at them as if nothing was wrong and backed towards the table. One of them rose his gun to her face.

"I hope you didn't have any plans for the rest of the day girl."

"And why should you care about my plans?"

"Because, I'm anout to kill you. I'll have to call all your friends to tell them." She walked forward until the gun was pressing into her chest.

"You know whta happened to the last guy who threatened me?"

"No. And Im, sure it wasn't anything bad. What damage could you do?" He snorted as he finished his question. SHe smiled and reached up, cupping his face.

"Well, I'll tell you....THIS HAPPENED!" With that she wrapped her hand around his neck and his entire head burst into flames. He began to run around screaming, while the others just stared. They then all seemed to come to their senses and began to fire wildly at her. She dodged the bullets untill one of them threw a knife at her. SHe knew she wouldn't be able to move in time, so she braced herself for the pain. But it never came. The next thing she knew, she was rolling across the floor with someones arms wrapped around her. She opened her eyes and saw that Shizuka had shoved ehr out of the way. "Ah, yes, er, thanks. Alot."

"It's not a problem. I'd figured they'd attack, but had no clue when...By the way, how did you do the whole setting that guys head on fire thing?"

"ah ha, I'm a demon. And you are Shizuka Takai, Japanese Assasin."

"How did you know?"

"It's my job to know these things. We actually came her looking for you. We want you to join us." Maurilla stopped for a moment and rolled her eyes. "Gods, that sounded so corny. Lemme try again. We're part of a...thing...a group so to say. The Leauge of Extrodinary Gentlemen. We were kinda wondering if you'd come and work with us."

"Doing.....?"

"Oh the usual good guy stuff. Stop the evil psycho, resuce people, save the world...all that good shit...so yeah? No? Wanna think about it?"

"You do realize we are having this conversation in the middle of a battle?"

"Eh, who cares...your not dead yet are you?" Shizuka laughed at her and helped her up.

"Yeah, okay. I've got nothing better to do. No ones hired me for any jobs in the near future."

"Alright cool." Maurilla looked around. During her and Shizuka's conversation, most of the men had run away. Tobias and Durgil walked over to her and Shizuka, while Myou was taking care of the last of them. Shizuka called out to her.

"Hey! You there! Scary looking demon person! Leave one of them alive! We might get some information out of him!" Myou looked slightly amused at being called a 'scary looking demon person'. She looked at Tobias and he nodded. Killing the one in her hands, she grabbed the last one, dragging him over to them.

"Ya know, we'd better run before the cops get here."

"Good Idea. Now how do we get out without being seen?" Everyone looked at Tobias. He looked back at them.

"WHAT!?"

"Come on, Shadow Boy. We need out and well, Im afriend your power is just what we need...."

"Don't fucking call me 'Shadow Boy'."

"So I just call you Tobias then, yes?"

"Darkwolf if you must call me something besides my fucking name. Yeah lets go..." He rose his arms up creating a cloud of darkness around them. Myou picked up the man and they made their way back to the plan. Once there they tied him up and waitied for Nich.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Most everyone was dozing off. Tobias was kicking their hostage every twenty seconds. Maurilla was going to die of boredom.

THUD

".........."

THUD

".........."

THUD

".........."

THUD

"Dude..."

"yes?" THUD

"Stop that..."

"Why?" THUD

"Because Im gonna start kicking YOU every twenty seconds...."

"Nope..." THUD Maurilla stood up and walked over to him. He just looked up at her and kicked the guy again. She pulled her leg back and kicked they guy as hard as she could. Something popped and the guys eyes went wide.

"You werent doing it right. Kick only every sixty seconds, but kick alot harder...if you do it after every twenty seconds the place you kick will just go numb."

"Ah ha...I see..." Before he said anything else, Nich walked into the plane. Myou and Shizuka looked up from their conversation, which had been in fluent japanese. Durgil merely looked over at him and continued reading her book. Maurilla put her hands n her hips and looked up at him.

"And you have been where exactly?"

"Getting information on your next recruit!"

"ANOTHER ONE!? How many people do we need to defeat this guy? Cuz if its anymore, I might as well just call my damn family!" Nich shook his head and handed them all another file.

"Her name.." Tobias interupted him.

"Gods damnit, another woman? What are you doing man, trying to fucking kill me?" Everyone of the woman looked over and glared at him. Nich laughed adn rose his eyebrow, looking down at Tobias.

"You know, any other guy would be happy...this seriously makes me doubt your sexuality...but anyway, her name is Tynstara Espisito. She's a natural born witch. Very useful to us. We will be heading back over to America, to the state of Massachusetts." With this he walked away, leaving them all to read the files as the plane took off for their next destination....
