Chapter 2

She was dreaming again. He or rather she, since she was seeing it through the man's eyes, was walking with the same spiky haired man as always toward the same restaurant named, "Honky Tonk". The man with the sunglasses and curly red hair greeted spiky and her with a wave of his hand. Then all of a sudden she turns around and two men walk through the door,one looking like a ruffian and the other with beautiful long hair. She sees her hand or rather his hand wave to the newcomers. Right behind the two men, two women enter, one with an extremely voluptuous figure and the other with a mark on her face. She suddenly felt so happy and warm inside, it was such a good feeling. They're all here. Please, she whispered. Wait for me...

I don't want to be alone anymore...

"Missy."

Natsumi slowly came awake at the sound of a voice.

"Missy," called the taxi driver again.

"Hm...?" she said, still not fully awake yet.

"We arrived in Shinjuku Missy. Was there a place you wanted to get dropped off?"

Natsumi looked out of the window and was amazed to see such a different scenery that seemed so familiar yet she has never visited. Well, that's not entirely true, she has been here, in her dreams. She smiled and turned to the driver. "Would it be possible to drop me off at a place called the Honky Tonk?"

The driver scratched his head, "Well, you see missy, I don't know my way around this city. But," he added when he saw her crestfallen face, "I can stop and ask for directions."

Natsumi's smile was back on her face and she thanked him as the nice driver stopped on the side of the road to ask directions in a nearby mini mart.

Ginji Amano waved to Hevn and Himiko as they both came through the door. He sat on the bar stool, leaned his elbows on the counter and held his face in his hands. He looked around the restaurant where all his friends are and smiled. Ban and Shido are as always, fighting again. He couldn't understand why they couldn't get along. Though he knew in his heart that they weren't truly enemies and that makes him relax when they're bickering. Himiko and Hevn were sitting in one of the booths drinking and talking casually, ignoring all the noise. Kazuki was off to the side looking calm as ever. Ginji sighed. He felt the happiest with all his friends nearby.

Just then Ginji felt a warm swoosh of air brush his face. "Please... Wait for me..." He turned around so fast to the voice that he fell off the chair bumping into Ban who was just about to take a sip of his coffee. Though unfortunately it splattered all over him.

"What the hell!" he roared as the hot beverage burned his skin. Ginji had already turned into his chibi mode, looking innocent as ever. Ban stomped a foot on Ginji, squishing him to the floor. "What is wrong with you! That hurt!"

"B-but I thought I heard something!" Ginji said, wiggling his hands and legs from under Ban's foot.

"Hear what?"

"That voice..." Ginji whispered.

Ban finally lifted his foot off from him and Ginji turned back to normal. Though he did have a frown on his face.

"Are you alright Ginji?" asked Kazuki, wondering what was wrong for Ginji kept looking around the restaurant with a scared and confused look on his face.

"Didn't you hear it?" he asked still looking but there was only the seven of them there. It definitely sounded like a girl's voice but where's the girl. He knew it didn't belong to Hevn or Himiko.

"Hear what?"

"That voice..." Ginji said.

Ban, who finally looked serious and asked again, "Eh Ginji? What did you hear?"

Ginji just shook his head and smiled. "Ah, never mind. I think it was just my imagination. Forget it." He sat back on his stool, but kept thinking about the voice. Maybe it was just the wind? Maybe it was... He felt the hairs on the back of his neck rise. A ghost? Now, he started to get scared. He looked around the restaurant once more, then again and again until he finally just kept his head down, alert. Making sure that nothing would attack him.

Ban and the others were a little worried about Ginji, he seemed fine up until now. What could he have heard, they thought.

Hevn hating uncomfortable silences decided to break it. "Recently, I've been hearing rumors about a strange man called Takashi."

"Yea heard 'bout him too," said Shido. "If you ask me, he's not a man to be trusted. My instincts tell me he's a very dangerous man, one not to be confronted with."

"You met him?" asked Kazuki.

"No, but I saw him from afar, asking the officials something. There's just something that I don't like about his aura."

"Heh. He must be a dangerous person if you're scared,"

Shido gritted his teeth. "Who said I was scared snakeboy!"

Outside, a taxi slowly pulls up to the sidewalk in front of the restaurant.

Ban stood up from his stool. "Who you calling a snake, monkey trainer?"

A girl steps out from the cab, hesitant to move.

"That's it, let's get this done already," Shido shouted, rolling the sleeves up his arms.

She paid and thanked the driver. She moved toward the cafe. Her shaky hand touched the knob of the door and slowly pushed it open.

"Fine!" Ban yelled, getting into a stance.

They all heard the bell on the door jingle and everyone turned toward it. Ginji who was so intent to hear the voice again, heard the bell and turned his head toward the door, thinking it a client.

Ban and Shido were frozen in their as they heard the bell.

Natsumi stepped inside the restaurant and looked at the occupants. Recognized everyone except one... She turned her eyes to Ginji who looked at her with his brown eyes. "You," she said softly.

Ginji's eyes widened at the sound of her voice for it sounded just like the one he had heard.

Natsumi's body weaved a little bit as she took another step forward. "All of you..." Her sentence drifted off as the overwhelming darkness came to claim her. She felt herself falling...into a warm pair of arms. She distinctly heard voices but slowly they seemed further and further away, until there was nothing but darkness.

Ah! I almost forgot. Didn't think I'd get much reviews, so I was a little suprised when I checked my mail the other day. So Iwant to thank all those who had reviewed. I'm very happy. Thank you all so much!
