1Chapter 2

Stubborn Antics

"When it began... there was nothing... no feeling. I remember the times I was told my mother was killed and that she left me here. I believed them then." Anubis said to herself. "But after that fateful day I feel into the waters of Rokkaku-dai heights cleared my memory of any such delusions and I pursued the truth... that was my past, is my present and my future. I must end what still remains of the Jenova Project." She said slipping into the streets , her trench coat blowing in the wind. "When this is over I shall be rid of myself. This pain I feel will be gone. I will find out my destiny and, know my mother... Jenova... that is her name...hmm when I die I will take her memory with me." She disappeared into the crowed to begin her quest.

"Ammit,... it won't be long now."

" That was weird." Beat stated.

"Yeah but she spoke the truth." K. said.

" What the hell do you mean! She made no sense at all!"

" But she said that Ammit's way was the same as her's used to be. That means we're all in trouble now. If Rokkaku gets a hold of her and manages to place back in that skull of her's that mission... and don't forget she's the best version of herself... we're as good as dead!" D.J. K. said as he looked at Beat who stood there dumbfounded at the whole thing. He stood there watching the door where she just exited and sighed.

" What the hell does this all mean? Why tell us? This is giving me a god damn headache!" Beat shook his head vigorously trying to un-confuse himself.

" and that's not? Listen we ought to take her advise. That girl has experience in battle and will be able to aid us, but that may not be enough." DJ. paused. " And with her after Ammit she already has her hands full. She doesn't need us slowing her down."

" But DJ. K... this is crazy she's up against far to many obstacles for her own good! Why do you want to leave her abandoned, and to do things on her own. This makes things harder for her couldn't we just work it out so that we can work as a team instead of alone."

" No. that won't work. You see Anubis has her own way of doing things and that way is to do this alone. That's how she was trained, and that's the way she's going to do this." DJ hung his head. " Keep out of her business, and let her do her own job and her own work" DJ said while glancing at the door "Anyway, I'd best be off, got a station to save and all." DJ K. turned and left the Garage in one swift motion.

Anubis began her walk down Shibuya Terminal towards Chuo Street, to where Ammit would be striking next. As she was walking she was stopped by a green blur that flashed in front of her.

"What the hell!" she grabbed the blur by the throat and lifted him up by two feet. "You cut me off!"

"S-s-s-s-orry, I didn't mean to. It's just that Poison Ja-" The boy was dropped.

"Here I'll get rid of them." Anubis pulled out a long sword about 7 feet long and Poison Jam took off the other way screaming like girls.

"Th-th-thanks." Yo-yo said as he stood up brushing himself off.

"What are you doing here anyway? I told you I work alone." She said sheathing the long sword.

"Ju-us-s-st-t-t to warn you that there is a police traps waiting for you at Chuo."

"How would you know?" Yo-yo turned around to revel several grazes on his back. "I see... here let me tend to them. Come with me we'll go to my place." She turned around and started towards Hikage Street. Yo-yo just stood there. "Well are you coming, or not?" she asked impatiently.

"Yeah." Yo-yo said catching up with her. "Why would you help me though?"

"Only the guilty need be punished, you have done nothing wrong in this time and place. Ammit is trying to get to me and your team to weaken defenses which for me will not happen that easily. But if I am forced to I will work with you. In other words you don't deserve to be slaughtered, you're only 17 right?" He nodded. "Yeah, you don't need to die yet you'll have plenty of time before you before you die." They entered a building. Anubis disappeared for awhile and reappeared with a bowl of water, a cloth, and some bandages. She removed his shirt and set it aside. Slowly dampening the cloth, she pressed it against the wounds cleaning them as yo-yo gave small hisses of pain. "There, you go. She said as she finished bandaging the wounds.

"Thanks." Yo-yo said as he put his shirt back on.

"You're welcome." She sat down and yawned. "I suppose it was for the better that I didn't go today, I'm exhausted." she looked at him "Why would you even tell me about the trap any way?"

"I'm not stupid you know, I'm not going to let you walk straight into a trap. I'm not that kind of person."

"You're right, your not." She stood up and walked over to him. "Thanks" she leaned in and kissed him on the cheek and yawned again. "Do you want something to eat 'cause I'm starved?"

"Yeah, let me help." The two left the room to the kitchen.
