I stumbled back to my feet and wiped away the tears on my cheeks in frustration, my fists clenched by themselves and I rushed outside of the room. I ran past a guard, it seemed that he was waiting for me ; I didn't care, I wouldn't play along anymore and let them drag from a room to an other as if I was a toy. I didn't really knew what I was though, but finally I had orders even if they weren't official it was still orders. I was out for the hunt, strangely I really did feel as if I was hunting down a prey and I had to say it was one that was particularly annoying.
I stuffed myself in between two staff members when the elevator's doors slid open, they closed back before the guard could reach me. I put of my best fake smile and acted as if I never noticed. I asked the man on which level was the nearest exit.
"On the 22nd." He replied not even bothering to ask any questions about it. In fact the door open on the right level so I stepped out of the elevator and I made my through the corridors until I saw a sign lit in red marking "Exit". I pushed the steel doors open to reveal a wide hangar. Air crafts flew in and out constantly and everyone seemed too busy to notice, I tried myself at it and I climbed on a craft that was about to leave the station. The pilot noticed my presence but he took off anyway. The wind wiped my hair against my cheeks and the dress' flaps floated behind me as we flew in the opposite direction of the Mikado building.
"Where to m'am?" he finally asked after a few minutes of flight, the only problem was that I didn't know where to begin at all. I crossed my arms and thought for a short while before making my mind. I pointed over in the direction of the closest city. At least if I didn't find Dominique there I could have the chance to see someone special.
I stepped down onto the street and thanked the pilot as he flew back into the air. I jogged out of the small alley and stepped on the sidewalk on the 7th avenue, the streets were crowded that day. I started off in a random direction, simply enjoying being outside at last. Gentle snow slowly fell down from the sky but no Christmas items were displayed into the stores. I stopped in front of an electronic store and searched for something which indicated the date. Seeing nothing that could help in display I entered the small boutique. I finally found what I wanted behind the corner. May 17th, It was completely abnormal that it snowed in May. I thought that maybe the calendar was wrong but I heard to men talking behind my back, they talked about the weather, it really was May 17th. It had been three years and a half that I "died".
When I exited the place and mixed in the street's crowd, my feet led me in no particular direction until I saw an half worn out sign "Bar Fate". Maybe I could make myself drunk and then I would thinking. I jogged up the stairs and walked inside. The first that caught my attention was an old red car that rested to the left of the door and then a bald mid-aged man that waited on the other side of the bar. I walked up to him and sat at a corner of the bar. I ordered a gin tonic, then an other and an other. I had no money but I found a credit card in the dress, the dead lady would have some bill to pay soon enough, or maybe now it was Dauragon's money, I didn't care.
I drank at least a full bottle of gin when I finally stopped, an other odd fact was that I was that drunk, just a little light headed, I would have to concentrate to walk straight but I would make it. Suddenly an huge wreckage started behind me, I looked over my shoulder and saw two brown haired men grabbing an obviously drunk client by the shoulders. The first bouncer had his hair cut at his shoulder level and it seemed that all of his body was covered by tattoos, the second one was much younger and shorter than the other one, his hair was done in spikes and he wore a red 'D.O.G S.T.R.E.E.T' coat, he had beautiful blue eyes. He reminded me of someone but I couldn't put a finger on it, probably the alcohol's effect. The two men swung the drunk one outside of the bar, making sure that he would land hard on the street outside.
I slowly stood up and held onto the bar to secure myself on my feet before starting to walk toward the exit. The younger bouncer stared at me for a moment as I passed next to him but all my focus was now in use to walk straight and to avoid tripping on my face. I pushed the doors open finally after what seemed to be an eternity, the drift of fresh air that suddenly surrounded me seemed to cease the gin's effect a bit. I restarted to walk down the street more confidently.
I would start searching for the blond girl tomorrow, it was getting late, too late for my own taste. After a short while I noticed that the streets grew desert. I fastened my pace a little, glancing at the various signs. I needed to find a bank and then an hotel.
The sound of a rolling came from behind me, I turned around sharply. A black cat ran away from a container, nothing to worry about. The feline looked at me and it's eyes seemed to glow in a strange way. I shook my head, it was probably an illusion, I put it as an other effect of the gin glasses.
I continued my way, the only sound that was breaking the silence was my own heels hitting the sidewalk. Suddenly some other noises came from behind the container. At first I though it would an other cat but the rustling of chains proved me wrong. I spun around my heels and faced the gang that slowly circled me. The one I thought that would be their leader had acid green hair, it was him who held the chain, the others simply cracked their knuckles and adjusted their sleeves.
"What a pretty lady like you as to do in a low place like this?" asked the green hair guy, his followers simply laughed viciously behind him. I plastered an other fake smile on my face and slowly walked up to him, making sure swing my hips as much as I could. He grinned at me and moved closer. When we became so close that I could smell his awful breath I let my smile drop. I quickly hit him under the nose with the palm of my hand, breaking it in doing so before bringing up my knee in his crotch.
"Bastard." I spat the words before even thinking, it was enough to trigger the rage of the whole gang. I kicked the first man that attacked me under the chin before performing an other circular kick to send him flying in a second man. Three down, two to go. I hit the third attacker in the stomach with both of my fists causing him to spit some blood. After, I patched a strong side kick into his side sending him down as well. After what, I crouched down and kicked the last one standing in the knees making them bend on the wrong side, a loud crack followed with a flood of curses as the last tug dropped on the street.
I still heard their whimpers as I walked out of the alley. An other smile appeared on my limps when I saw the Bank's sign displayed a little further down to the right of the main street I emerged onto. I walked up to it and checked out the sold of my credit card, 50 000$ were available and the card was at Corporation's name, I would surely have no money problem with this. I put back the card in my pocket and went straight to the nearest hotel.
An old man was leaning against the counter, he turned the pages of the latest newspaper and seemed to read them only half-heartedly. I waved at him as I carefully shut the old-styled wooden door behind me. I asked him about the available rooms and finally I ended up with a casual and comfy green colored one on the second floor. There was a balcony as well and it lead out to the street. After over looking the place I just let myself fall onto the bed and I immediately fell asleep.
In my dream, I heard a boy laughter and a man's voice, it was the first time I dreamed since the accident. These voices were so familiar, it seemed that I just had to push a small bit harder and that everything would come back but instead nothing. A strong light greeted me when I woke up and it succeeded to blind me completely, one ray of the morning sun was falling straight in my face, no need to wonder about what woke me up...
I was around 1 p.m. when I stepped onto the sidewalk, some snow from yesterday was still there forming a few white spots. I started to ask people around if they say an girl that could fit Dominique's description lately, the answers were all the same: Nothing. After an hour or so of wandering I ended in front of the train station. A man in uniform greeted me and asked if I needed something. Once again I blathered out Dominique's description and for once I got an affirmative response. He saw the merry girl pass a few hours earlier. I was satisfied from that simple answer and went outside. The sun still shone brightly in the sky as I searched the area around the station, I didn't see nor heard any sign from the girl.
I gathered information on the girl where about for the next 2 weeks, never able to catch her and it seemed that I always missed from only a few hours. In the end, I got an approximate schedule of her days, she seemed to work in the square town of the city but I didn't have a clue of where she lived.
On some other snowy day, my feet unconsciously led me back to the 'Fate' bar. I walked past the tattooed bouncer and smiled softly at him before pushing the door open. The atmosphere was yet again smooth and there wasn't many clients, my eyes went up to the second level, the staff section. What I felt was more than shock when I saw the PDG's little sister discussing with the blue eyed bouncer. I couldn't believe it, there she was, in front of me like that after 2 weeks of research.
