Nacht Arc 5

"Who is Sister Mary Hasegawa-san?" Hisoka asked for the third time. No response. Ayumi won't open her mouth, she just stared blankly at Hisoka, but definitely Hisoka can spell sadness within those eyes.

"Her emotions, she has them but hidden." Hisoka thought feeling the presence of guilt and sadness within the depths of Ayumi's heart. "Stop reading my heart Hisoka-san!" Ayumi's mind cried out to him. Hisoka jerked his head. He was caught.

Tatsumi shook his head and said, "This is no use, she won't tell us" he then went over Chief Konoe's desk and whispered something to the Chief. Chief Konoe nod his head and said, "If you won't tell us, we'll tell you who is Sister Mary then!" everyone in the room stared at Chief Konoe. Chief Konoe took out a long white folder and handed it to Tatsumi.

Tatsumi adjusted his glasses and read, "Sister Mary Hasegawa or should I say Mika Takamiya was a former Project EVE. She was the prototype of Project EVE!"

Ayumi stood up and exclaimed, "Stop!"

Tatsumi eyed her and continued, "However, Mika Takamiya turned out imperfect, the government don't want a imperfect assassin. They tried to kill her however Mika was smarter than they thought. On the day of her assassination, she staged her death and never been seen before. But she was seen, after many years, she resurfaced as Sister Mary Hasegawa of a Catholic Church in Tokyo."

The secretary put down the folder and exclaimed, "The government found her out, saw her through that angelic face of hers they assigned an assassin to assassinate her. Tthey don't want a former Project EVE to ruin their plans do they?" he then stared at Ayumi and exclaime, "They send their Project EVE! The perfect EVE! They send you Ayumi Hasegawa or should I say Eve?"

Ayumi clasped her head and screamed, "NOOOOOOOOO!" In an instant, a strong gush of psychic energy rushed out of Ayumi's body. Then they saw it all... Ayumi's past!

AYUMI'S PAST

"Eve, I assign you to St. Joseph Catholic Church and Orphanage! I assign you to assassinate the prototype Project EVE, we thought all dead!" a guy in the shadows exclaimed. Eve stood up wearing a black matrix coat. She stared at the picture handed to her and said, "Considered it done"

ST. JOSEPH CATHOLIC CHURCH

Aiming her gun, she positioned to shoot the 5'7 ft. nun dressed in all white who was playing with orphans. When she was about to pull the trigger, the nun disappeared and appeared behind her. "Guns are not allow here!" the nun exclaimed her voice stern. Ayumi turned around pointing the gun at her, however the nun grabbed the gun and twisted it out of her hand. Ayumi then twirled around hurling a dagger at her. The nun caught it easily.

"You must be the new Eve" the nun replied, she then took the bullets out the gun and said, "My name is Sister Mary Hasegawa and I know the government sent you to kill me."

Ayumi's eyes widened and thought, "She knew"

Sister Mary smiled and said, "I'm no longer a threat to the government but I see that they won't believe that." she then extended her hand towards her and said, "I leave you a deal. If I don't succeed on brining you to believe that you're human, you can kill me but if I do, you will stop from killing and live with me"

Ayumi took out a dagger and threw it at her, the dagger grazed through the nun's cheek and stuck into the tree trunk. "I'll take that as a yes." Sister Mary replied wiping away the blood on her cheek.

THE NEXT DAY

"Eve, Eve is my name." Eve replied monotonously. Sister Mary sighed and said, "That is not a name! That's the name of the project." she then stood up and replied, "I know! I'll give you name, a new name!"

Eve looked at her and said, "New name..." Sister Mary nods her head and said, "Yes! From now on you're now Hasegawa! Hasegawa Ayumi! You'll be my younger sister!"

2 MONTHS HAVE PAST

"Sister Mary! Sister Mary!" Ayumi called out cheerfully.

Sister Mary turned around and saw Ayumi running towards her. She embraced the young girl and asked, "How is Ayumi-chan?"

"Healthy and okay Sister Mary!" Ayumi answered smiling at the nun. "That is good!" Sister Mary replied. The angelic faced nun then stood up and replied, "Saa! Ikou!"

Ayumi nod her head and said, "Ikou!" then a gunsot was heard

"Deadlink!" Ayumi exclaimed at a man dressed all in white. "Tsk, tsk, tsk! What a waste Eve! You're supposed to assassinate the prototype Eve!" Deadlink exclaimed evilly.

Ayumi shook her head and said, "I made a deal Deadlink! Sister Mary proved I'm human and because of that I shall give up killing and live with her!" Deadlink shook his head and exclaimed, "Wrong move Eve!" With that an army of men charged inside. Ayumi was engaged into battle.

"Sister Mary! Protect the children!" Ayumi cried. Sister Mary nod her head and left. Deadlink then jumped to his feet and followed the nun. Ayumi shot the last guy and followed Deadlink. There was a gunshot, Deadlink halted to and shot Ayumi however, a figure blocked Ayumi and got hit instead.

"SISTER MARY!" Ayumi cried

"Anata wa ningen! Remember that!" Sister Mary exclaimed as she gave Ayumi a necklace with cross as a pendant.

"Sister Mary!" Ayumi exclaimed. She shook the nun but the angelic nun was already dead. "Why? Why can't I cry? Common tears fall down!" Ayumi's mind screamed. Deadlink shook his head and pointed the gun at him and said, "Too bad Eve! You traitor!"

Before Deadlink could pull the trigger, Ayumi gripped the cross pendant and jabbed it into Deadlink's leg. Ayumi shook her head, her eyes filled with fury and said, "I have a name, it's Ayumi!"

BACK AT THE HQ

"You know the orders, kill Sister Mary not Eve!" the man in the shadows exclaimed. Deadlink bang his fist on the table and exclaimed, "She's a traitor! A traitor! She's imperfect like that nun!" the man in the shadows shook his head and said, "No! She's perfect!"

With that she flicked his fingers. Ayumi appeared, her face emotionless, she pointed her gun at Deadlink. The man in the shadows exclaimed, "Kill him!" Ayumi pulled the trigger and Deadlink dropped dead.

"Very good Eve, oh sorry, you wanted to be called Ayumi... very good Ayumi! Remember you are not a human being!" the man in the shadows exclaimed.

"But Sister Mary..." Ayumi replied, "No! Remember you didn't shed a tear when she died, you're still a weapon, you are not human! Not human!" the man in the shadows replied haunting.

END OF AYUMI'S PAST

Ayumi slumped to the floor panting. "I knew it, she did have emotions before however, she was brainwashed again in order for those emotions to be compressed." Hisoka replied looking at Ayumi.

Terazuma frowned and said, "I wonder, if Deadlink died, why is he alive today?" Chief Konoe sighed and said, "I received the answers from above. Deadlink didn't really died at once, his subconscious prayed to the underworld to give him new life and he'll be serving them for the rest of life."

"And with that, he received the Night Shader from Gen. Ashitalore" Tatsumi exclaimed. Tsuzuki then banged his fist on the wall crying, "DAMNED! How a human like them do this to Ayumi-chan? How could they? How heartless!"

"Tsuzuki..." Hisoka replied reaching out to him. Tsuzuki then grabbed Ayumi by the shoulder and said, "Ayumi-chan, you'll defeat Deadlink, you will!" Watari sighed and said, "How?"

Ayumi stood up and said, "It's been a long time since I've used the Nacht."

"Nacht?" Watari asked he then looked at Tatsumi. Tatsumi nod his head. Watari beamed, "Oh so I see!" Wakaba asked, "What is the Nacht?"

Tatsumi replied, "Watari, you shall accompany Tsuzuki and Hisoka today!"

"Roger!" Watari replied saluting.Tsuzuki then asked, "For what?" Watari exclaimed, "To explain what Nacht is!"

Hisoka then demanded, "Why don't explain it here now?" Watari sighed and said; "Now boy, it is better if you can see the Nacht in action and I shall explain it!" Tsuzuki nod his head and replied, "Ayumi-chan, Deadlink is impossible with the Night Shader, distract him first so I can take the Night Shader out of his grasp for a few minutes."

Terazuma raised an eyebrow and said, "The Night Shader is inseparable from Deadlink, what are fucking hell you're saying Tsuzuki-san?"

"SohRyu! SohRyu can handle this!" Tsuzuki replied with a wink. Chief Konoe then replied, "Okay then, prepare for your leave!"

AT THE LOCKER ROOM

"Nee Hisoka..." Tsuzuki called out to the stoic teen walking ahead of him. "What?" Hisoka demanded angrily. "Why are you so grouchy Hisoka?" Tsuzuki asked with puppy dog eyes. Hisoka gritted his teeth and thought, "Because you're falling in love with that... GIRL!"

Tsuzuki drew closer to Hisoka, looking at him seriously and asked, "Is something wrong Hisoka?" Hisoka blushed. "Nandemonai!" he answered taking a step back. Tsuzuki drew even closer and said, "Liar! I may not be an empath but I can sense something is bothering you! It's Muraki isn't it?"

Hisoka shook his head and exclaimed, "No! It's not Muraki!" Tsuzuki sighed, "Then what? Who?"

"Ayumi that's who!" Hisoka blurted out, he then clasped his hands to his mouth. "Shit! You and your big mouth!" Hisoka's mind screamed. Tsuzuki eyed him slyly and said, "Ahh... you like her right?" Hisoka gritted his teeth and replied annoyingly. "Baka! You're the one who likes her!"

"Not again! That's for the 2nd time Kurosaki!" Hisoka's mind screamed again. Tsuzuki was taken a back at this comment. "Me like Ayumi?" Tsuzuki thought, he then laughed, "Hisoka, I am not in-love Ayumi!"

"Yeah right, the way you act around her, it is like you are!" Hisoka replied not looking at Tsuzuki.

The elder Shinigami raised an eyebrow and sensed something on what Hisoka had said, is the boy jealous? Tsuzuki then wrapped his arms around Hisoka and exclaimed, "Hisoka, I am just worried about Ayumi-chan! It is just she reminds me of myself."

Hisoka then felt the sadness rushing into him, it's Tsuzuki's sadness. "Saying she's not human, it's like me saying that I'm not human." replied Tsuzuki's mind. Hisoka obviously read this exclaimed, his voice stern, "You're human Tsuzuki!"

"I know that Hisoka, that's why I want to help Ayumi! She's human and I want her to realize that again of course!" Tsuzuki replied, he then whispered to Hisoka's ear, "Nee Hisoka... are you jealous?"

POW!

Tsuzuki was sent off to the air by the strong punch Hisoka gave him. Hisoka with fiery angry eyes exclaimed, "WHO SAYS I'M JEALOUS? BAKA!"

"Sorry if I asked!" Tsuzuki replied in SD form with sweat drops on his head. Hisoka sighed and said, "You're hopeless!" with that he left the locker room.

"Stupid Tsuzuki! So what if I'm jealous? Idiot" Hisoka thought. He then saw Ayumi standing under the sakura trees. "I won't lose Tsuzuki over to you Hasegawa Ayumi!" Hisoka thought making a fist.
