Recap:
"Touzoku!" Ginji said running over, his leg numb.
I forced a smile on which took all of my energy.
"Ginji…. I'm…" But my body failed me, and I began to fall. If I hit the ground, or if Ginji caught me, I didn't know. Boy was my life a mess!
I Touzoku Ginou, a blonde haired, blue eyes, a Get Backers lover, awoke to the familiar sound of the chirping of birds. Slowly I opened my eyes, and looked up at the warm white ceiling above me. Reluctantly, I looked to my left and saw a large window. Through the curtains I could see a tree and could make out the outline of a bird.
I smiled weakly, letting a tear roll down my face. Just like own room.
"looks like it was just dream." I said quietly, sleep began to take over again.
"I'm home." I only was able to get out, along with another tear, as I went back to sleep.
I awoke what seemed to be seconds later to another sound. Reluctantly I opened my eyes and saw, through blurred vision, large, spike brown hair, and purple glass.
Excitement built in my heart, faster than a jet breaking the sound barrier.
"Ban!" I yelled jumping up instantly, giving him a giant hug. But as soon as I sat up, a sharp pain stuck my brain, forcing me to huddle back under the covers.
"The side effects." He said standing up, popping out another cigarette.
"Of what?" " I said. As soon as the pain had come, it was gone. I made a mental note not to move so quickly.
"Of stealing someone's traits of course." Ban said, looking at me, smiling.
I was in awe. All I could remember from last night was being ambushed, a punch, and then lying here is bed.
"Don't you remember?" Ginji said as he walked up the stairs, holding a tray of food.
"Remember what?" I said, blinking innocently.
"That lightning storm you made happen." Ginji said, placing the tray down by my bed.
"That storm of yours knocked out power in this block o Tokyo for about five minutes." Ban said, slightly aggravated.
"how…How could I… how could I do that?" I said, shakking from fear and excitement.
"All I can say, is that there is more to your name being "Skill Theif", appearing in our world through a movie, and the strange things that have been happing, then a coincidence. Ban said puffing a smoke.
"What strange things have been happening?" I asked, carefully swinging my body over the bed, as Ginji brought me some muffins and milk.
"I think.." He said, looking at the ceiling, as if he did not hear my question.
"That when you and Ginji shook hands, you stole his power." Bans aid.
Ginji stopped dead in his tracks, and I stopped eating the delicious muffin.
"Stole his power?" I said in awe.
"Yeah." Ban said pulled out a watch.
"Touzoku, I want you to jumpstart this watch." He said, holding it out in front of me.
"Why?" I asked.
"Just do it." Ban said gritting his teeth.
Shrugging my shoulders, I stuck out my hand and grabbed the watch. Focusing all the enrgy inside of me, I tried to muster up some type of electricity, but nothing came.
"Alright now Ginji, your turn." Ban said taking the watch from me.
Ginji smiled, put the tip of his finger on the watch, and gave a small jolt. The watch restarted.
"It seems that you, Touzoku, can steal powers by touching the person. Though the duration of the stolen power seems to be unknown." Ban said placing the watch back in his pocket.
"So when ever I touch someone, I take their powers?" I said, trying to think this through."
"From what I have seen, yeah." Ban said, nodding his head back at me.
"And that's not all." Ban said pulled a chair over.
"Since you came here, strange things happened." Ban said avoiding my gaze.
"Like?" I said, debating if I should ask that question.
"Jubeei getting his sight back, MakubeX deciding he wants to be a more active part of Ginji's life and…" Ban said not finishing his sentence.
"And what?" I asked. Wasn't those two things enough? Jubeei getting his sight back? And MakubeX? Wanting to become a more active part?
"…Jubeei proposed to Kazuki!" Ginji said, flashing a great big smile.
"Wow." I said. I knew that they cared for each other, but I never thought that they would propose.
"When did this happen?" I asked, going back to eating my muffin.
"Five days ago. Along with all the others events." Ban said, looking up at me.
I went back to staring in awe. That was when I I have something to do with this?" I asked, the air round me feeling hot and sticky.
"Could be." Ban said standing up.
"Anyway, we have to get ready." He said walking out the door.
"For what?" I asked.
"For Jubeei's birthday!" Ginji said, smiling once again.
"Today? What day is today?" I said standing up. The room suddenly began to spin and turn. I closed my eyes and gathered my strength. A second later, when I opened my eyes, the room was back to being normal.
"December 2." Ginji said.
I stopped slipping on my shoes and looked up.
"What's wrong?" Ginji said, about to walk out of the door.
"Today is my birthday." I said, brushing it off.
"Really?" Ginji said running over, about to hug me.
"Happy birthday!" He yelled jumping up and turning into his chibi form.
He was about to hug me, when a hand stuck out and grabbed his, throwing him into a chair.
"You can touch him." Ban said, his eyes closed, looking down at the ground.
"Yeah." I said, sadness filling my. No one could touch me in this world.
"Oh." Ginji said, looking at me and feeling my sadness.
"I don't care!' Ginji yelled, jumping on Ban's shoulder in his chibi form, using him as a diving board.
"Ginji no!" I yelled stick out my hand. I don't know why I stuck out my hand, by maybe I could do something.
But the only thing I did was slip on a blanket, and almost fall of Ban, if he hadn't side stepped out of my way.
I fee face first on the floor, face buried in the ground.
Then, I felt a weight on my back and I flipped over. There on top of me, sat chibi Ginji.
"Happy birthday!" He said smiling.
I couldn't help but smile. It was very nice of him.
"Hey Ginji!' Ban said pulling him off and throwing him against the wall.
"What if we get attacked or something! I cant defend both of you!" Ban said yelling.
"But we have Touzoku, who has my power!" Ginji said complaining as he rubbed his head. "Did you see what he can do with it?"
"If he does that type of display again, who knows what could happen to his body!" Ban yelled, getting closer to Ginji.
"I'm sorry Ban. Don't yell at Ginji. If I hadn't said it was my birthday, non of this would have happened." I said looking up at him.
"Shut up, you!" Ban spat back at me.
Right at that moment, everything was shatter, my pride, and my emotions. I was now just an empty carcass.
"Ban that was not nice!" Ginji said, turning back into his regular form. "He was just trying to apologize."
"Ginji…" Ban said gritting his teeth.
Ginji then bared his fist, small jolts of lightning coming from them.
"Ginji your lightning!" Ban said, pointing to his fist.
Ginji glance down and saw that he still had it.
"Your right Ban!" Ginnji looked behind him and stared at me.
"Well, well Ban, looks like you owe someone an apology." Ginji said, snickering.
Ban grumbled and walked over to me.
"I'm… I'm sorry." Ban said looking the other way.
Knowing that that was the best of an apology I was going to get from Ban Midou, I smiled and accepted it.
"Lets go!' Ginji said running down stairs.
Ban stuck out his hand to help me up. I hesitated.
"What? You don't want to take the hand of a jagan user?" He said, joking. "For some strange reason, you didn't take Ginji's lightning, probably, because you truly didn't want to." He said, his hand still extended.
"I think, that if you don't want to take the person's power, you can cancel out that technique. Only when you truly don't want to though." Ban said.
"So we should train you. Who knows how long you will be here." He said, giving me a slight smile. "And this is a good time to start."
I looked up, smiled and nodded. Focusing all my energy on not taking Ban's Snake Bite and Jagan, I slowly took his hand. The tingling sensation began to come back, but I pull more energy, enough to make a sweat, and pushed it out of my brain.
With a heave Ban pulled me up and escorted me out of the door, his lady bug, which would transport up to Jubeei's party. What would happen next was a mystery to us all.
Chapter 3: Complete!
Ok, in my opinion, not as interesting as chapter two, but more interesting then chapter one. It was basically to explain about Touzoku and what his powers basically were. Umm… - huddles in the corner to think-. There will be more action defiantly, and romance. I do not know how long this series will go for…could be a hundred chapters…. But if you would review that would be great. And if you don't, and you did read it, thanks for at least reading. Since I am writing this, before the chapter was put on the web, I would like to thank all the people who read, and I would like to give a great thanks to all the people who reviewed. Thanks! – Touzoku turns into chibi form and waves.-
Thread-Sage: I hated that chapter…. Not enough blood
Touzoku: O.O
Akabane: I second that.
Ginji, Touzoku, and Ban: O.O
Preview of Chapter four:
Let out a whimper as the man in front of me raised his emerald sword high, ready to strike. Waiting for my death, the only thing I regretted was really nothing. And so I loosened my muscles, and waited for the slash.
The sword was brought down.
