Chapter 16 : Full moon #1
Slowly she put her hands in the air. This was it. No one was going to believe her , no one was going to believeit when she would claim it was Yaten who the real killer was. No , this was one of those moments in which she was sure she had ro surrender to win. And she did. Yaten had won , she had made herself look like a criminal and he was going to get away with murder. This was what the serial killer had meant with the last words on the note he had left for her and Kenji.
She was shaken out of her thoughts when she suddenly heard someone pull the triger. But much to her suprise it wasn't her who got shot , nobody got shot. Haruka just looked around in shock trying to find the person who had pulled the trigger. It seemed all other cops were just as suprised as she was since they weren't focussing on her anymore but were now looking around too.
Then The blonde saw what she was looking for. In the opening of the door that led to this floor stood Kenji aiming his gun at the cops who were treathening Haruka just a few minutes before. Haruka mouthed a silent thanks to her partner who just nodded and looked back at the police men who were now aiming their guns at him. He knew he had just dug his own grave but he knew this was what fate had in store for him.'' Put your hands in the air !'' Mamoru yelled causing Kenji to flinch. He couldn't be serious , you wouldn't ask a criminal who was robbing a bank to just put his hands in the air too ? Actually everything suddenly seemed stupid to Kenji. All the things he had to go through as being a police man suddenly seemed so stupid. All those times he had yelled towards criminals to drop their gun and to put their hands in the air. What had he been thinking , ofcourse a criminal won't drop his gun and listen to a cop , every idiot knew he was going to jail for a long time for what they had done. All those rights they had to point the person on who they arrested , why would a criminal even listen to that shit ? Kenji didn't know why this thought suddenly came to his mind. Maybe it was because he was now in the shoes of a criminal , atleast that was what these men in front of him thought. Or maybe it was because he knew he wasn't going to be a police officer after this , maybe he was just looking for a good reason to stop being what he was now.
Haruka who had just been staring at the scene in front of her suddenly realised she had to do something to help her partner now. Then again the police men were now all too busy with making Kenji drop his gun it would be easy for her to run away or steal someone else's gun. She decided to go for the second option and waited for the perfect moment to attack one of the men she had once been working with and steal a gun from them.
Just when she was about to jump fowards to steal the gun of a blonde man suddenly the whole room was filled with smoke causing her to back down again. She wanted to know what was going on here , who had caused this smoke ? But much to her dismay she couldn't find much. She couldn't even see anymore by cause of the thick smoke. The she felt someone take her by her wrist and pull her away from the hall. Haruka decided to trust whoever was holding her arm and run along to a place which she hoped to be far away from the police men , but what would happen to Kenji now ? Would he be saved to ? But most important , was she save now or could it be she was just taken away from safety...
What happened next she hadn't expected. She was pushed onto a chair as she heard someone call her name. Slowly the blonde's vision returned to her making it possible for her to see who had just saved her. It was Ami who looked at her with a concerned look on her face. Also Kenji was there , he stood against the wall looking rather amused. Why was he laughing ? Wasn't he aware of the situation they were in. Now she also could see Ami blush. What was so damn funny ?
'' You're still wearing a skirt remember honey ?'' Kenji said earning a confused look from his blonde partner. Then when she looked down she saw what he had meant and fastly pulled the skirt down. Kenji started to laugh as Ami shook her head slightly amused.
Haruka decided to ignore their behaviour.'' What had just happened ? Where did all that smoke come from ?'' Ami gazed up turning her head towards Kenji making it clear he had to explain what was going on.
'' Well after you bumped into Ami by the elevator she came to me to see if Michiru and I were really where you told us to be and I explained to her what was going on. Ofcourse we both knew you were going to screw up so we made up a back-up plan , and you see , as ussual we were right and you needed some back-up. Ami was the one who came up with that little smoke bomb , it was made out of sugar powder mixed with some explosive water..something. Ah who cares what the exact words were , you are saved.'' He drifted off.
'' Michiru..?'' The blonde now asked.
'' She's okay , I called a cab who took her to the hospital , not even this crazed killer will follow her there. But now we only got two problems left.'' He paused for a moment.''We still have no idea who the killer is and since Ami is here with us..what is he going to do next ?''
Haruka looked down at the ground.'' I know who it is...And he's still after Ami but not on this very moment. I believe there is someone else who he wants to kill first. I just don't know who it is or when he's going to strike.''
'' Then who is it ?'' Ami asked curious. She was almost sure it would be Taiki herself since he just popped out after Seiya's death. But when Haruka answered her question her eyes went wide. Did she hear that right ?
'' Yaten !'' Kenji yelled pushing his own hand against his mouth. He had to stay silent before the other cops would eventually find them here. It wouldn't take long before the smoke would clear up and the others would start to look for them. His partner just nodded at his outburst.
'' But why ?'' The blue haired girl now asked.'' Why would he kill his own brother and kill all those people while he is a cop and a good one too. I mean he didn't seem like a troubled person to me.''
'' To me he did , I mean just look at that silver haired bastard , he's ugly and isn't able to get a girlfriend.'' Kenji muttered causing the blonde tomboy to smirk.
'' Just like you can't get a girlfriend , even I as a girl...Hey I beat you again !'' Haruka started earning a cold glare from Kenji and a questioning look from the blue haired genius who decided not to ask. Haruka took a deep breath looking serious again.'' Two hours to go before it will turn night and then half an hour before the moon will be completely visible , then he'll strike.'' She was really upset by this. Here she was wearing a skirt , being locked up in her own office chased by the police she once was part of herself. What could they do next ? There wasn't much to do actually , except for sitting here and waiting to be found. Then suddenly she looked up at her partner in shock. She knew who the killer was after , how stupid she hadn't realised this earlier.
'' What ?'' Both Ami and Kenji asked in unison.
Haruka shook off her shock before answering it was Setsuna who Yaten was after and he probably had her already too.'' It has to be her he wanted. I'm sure Yaten wasn't involved in that accident two years ago but Seiya was and Setsuna was responisble for all of that , he's taking revenge on her.''
'' But Yaten , if I understood correcly , killed Seiya.'' Ami now said earning a nod from Kenji who also was confused but he knew not to doubt Haruka anymore. The chance she was right again was very large , after all she was the one who found out about the patern the killer followed for his victems.
'' Yes he did but...maybe he didn't have another choice , It was Seiya who wrote those letters to me. I think they were working together , I don't know why but i'm sure of the fact they were a team in this case. Maybe Seiya wanted to confess and Yaten didn't know what else to do so he killed him. But that's just guessing and my assumptions talking , i'm not sure but i'm sure if we don't get away from this place we'll be screwed even more.'' Haruka replied.
Ami nodded. Somehow that theory made sence.'' They still don't know it was me who helped you two earlier , maybe i could get you two out of here.'' She now suggested.
'' No that's too dangerous , they don't suspect you now , it's better for you to not get involved any more than you already are.'' Haruka said as she heard Kenji agree. Then her partner stepped away from the wall he was standing against. Because it was dark in the room and the lights weren't turned on Haruka hadn't seen it before but Kenji was wearing a bag.'' What's in it ?'' She asked pointing at the bag in his hands. Haruka could see him smile before he threw the bag towards the blonde who catched it.
'' That's my input to this case.'' He said as Haruka opened the bag. What was in there was more than she could ever wish for. Inside were her clothes , her pants , shirt and jacket , plus gun and badge. She looked up at her partner again with a thankful look on her face.
'' How can I ever thank you !'' She asked.
'' Well..'' He paused a moment before he continued.'' Now you are still in those clothes...what about a kiss..on the lips ?'' He joked after he saw the look on the tomboy's face.'' Nah just kidding , I still go with what I said before , you look to much like a guy and i'm not gay plus you can't fight against an idiotic murderer while wearing those clothes.''
'' Your clothes..'' Haruka corrected him earning another questioning look from Ami.
'' That's between you and me Tenoh , if you ever talk about you would wish that factory had actually explode !'' Kenji yelled while turning red. Haruka just nodded in reply letting him know she wouldn't tell anyone about it. With that she stood up from the chair she was sitting on looking serious once more.
'' First we'll get outta here and then we'll find Yaten , if I recall he is driving in a silver car. It doesn't have a number plate so we can't track it down but i'm sure I can reconize it when i see it.'' The tomboy spoke.
'' But what do you want to do , drive around town in hope to find him ?''
Haruka turned to look at Ami who had a point there. Yaten was smart enough to hide his car somewhere , besides driving around would make it easy for the police who was still after them to find them. But , what if Yaten was still in this building ? He had to be in Setsuna's office in that case , there was no way for Yaten to escape with Setsuna while the cops where really careful now and weren't going to let anybody leave this building.'' We have to get to Setsuna's office unseen.''
But how ? That question will be answered in the next chapter , also will I reveal why Yaten is doing all these things and what his part was in the accident that happened two years ago ! Ah I know I promised I would reveal that in this chapter but like I already said , the plans changed !
Let me know what you think so far !
