Chapter
two- Assassin
A/N:
I own Sha-chan, Green-eyes & co. and the plot, meager as it be.
Ansatsusha means assassin. Kaji blaze, misuwater. Don't flame
Green-eyes, I love the random accent i gave him. If you have any idea
what country he's from, please tell me .
Uotani
Arisa stood outside Kaji Misu High. Where was he? Boys came out the
gate, talking and laughing, but Sha-chan didn't come. Finally, she
walked up to the last group of them.
"Hey."
A
tall dyed-blond who was obviously in a gang required very little in
the way of getting attention, so long as she wasn't hoping for
friends.
"Where's Ansatsusha-chan?"
The
three smaller boys looked to the tallest. "Hey, Tatsu-kun, he
aint been at school, yeah?" he said.
"ja, he bin
sick yesserday, prob'ly sick 'day too, less'n he bin hangin' out wi'
that fekkin' gang-gal- Ah, ah min-" the green-eyed one
stuttered, suddenly realising who the blond must be.
"Goddamn,
shut it, Green-eyes, can't cha see she's
that girl?" hissed the small, skinny one. Obvious leader. Got
the others as muscle, most likely.
Green-eyes didn't look
like much, but he was probably good with knives, or some sort of
fighting art. Short and slim didn't usually lend itself to the role
he seemed resigned to.
The tall one was more... lean, and
muscled. And bright enough to know when he was being too obviously
tricked.
The last? well, He was short, and big. And, by
this point, clearly none too bright. Yeah. Thug.
Well, if Sha-chan was sick... She'd have to go see him.
Arisa
eased the door open. She didn't want to wake Sha-chan if he were
asleep- and the door creaked something bloody rotten.
It
was dark. As her eyes adjusted to the lack of light she began to
notice things. The door to his room was ripped open.
Something
had happened, hadn't it? Oh, please, let him have just forgotten he'd
closed the door again. but she had a nasty feeling something was
wrong.
You've
got the Sight, girl. It's in our blood. It's why your mother left,
she couldn't stand it, the way I
saw things. Other people can't understand.
That's what her father had told her, before he deadened his abilities
with alcohol, before he totally blocked her out so he could forget he
had been hurt. Abandoning her without leaving, ignoring the fact she
hurt too.
It had helped her in the past, and now she knew
it was about to happen again. She knew Ansatsusha was in trouble.
There
were deep gouges in the wooden table in the kitchen. Ohno.
It's happened- But it
hadn't happened, it was about to happen.
"Sha-chan?"
The full moon shone in the window, falling across her face
and suddenly she saw an inhuman shape in the shadows.
"No..." br The shadow broke off and lunged towards
her, and she screamed. It wasn't Sha who was in
danger. It was her.
Arisa
awoke to the sound of vile lies manifesting in the form of her
boyfriend's voice.
"Arisa-kun's a friend. She was
staying over. She'd had a massive fight with her father, she didn't
have anywhere else to go. Someone must have broken in, or she left
the door unlocked, something like that... I heard a scream in the
night, yeah. She has nightmares, the most terrible dreams. She hates
her friends to see the state she's in when she wakes up, so I didn't
go to see... I had no idea someone else was there."
Yeah. Yeah right. The other girls in her gang had been right: You couldn't trust a guy, there'd been something weird about him, wasn't a bit strange that he was interested in her?
But she'd been thirteen, a big, bad teenager, so of course she knew best. She'd had a bad vibe from him from the beginning, but she was thirteen, so damn eager to have a boyfriend like the older girls in the gang and be able to look down on the preteens like they were kids, when in reality most were only a matter of months younger.
