Chapter 8: Suspicions and Interrogations
~Reader's POV~
'Oh crap, oh crap!'
I grabbed a second magazine from the counter in front of me, opening it, hiding my face behind it. I peeked through the brim, watching them speak to the workers until they eventually came towards us. I clutched the magazine nervously, my hands began to shake, my heart thumped loudly in my chest.
"Miss I would like to ask you, have you seen this girl around here?"
I closed my eyes, begging he'd leave soon as I anxiously waiting for her answer.
"Oh will you look at that. I was discussing her with the little miss here."
I could feel the detective's eyes glancing at me as I tried acting normal. Problem was, my hands wouldn't stop shaking.
"Miss, are you alright?"
He stood next to me, his question forcing me to look up.
"Yes yes I-I'm quite f-fine."
I watched his eyes skim my face, slowly glancing at the picture he was holding, the picture of the old me he was using to show people if they knew who I was. I gulped as I watched his eyebrow raise a bit, quickly I turned back to my magazine, Maybe too quickly.
"Miss? Could I perhaps ask for your name."
"Shit!"
Without hesitating I blurted out the first name that came into mind.
"Nana Izawa!"
"Miss Izawa, if you don't mindI'd like to ask you a couple of questions, now that i can see your hair is done, I suppose you can come with me."
"I'm afraid that's not possible sir!"
The new voice surprised us, causing us to turn to it, just for my eyes to see Liz. She had a nicely manicured hand on the detective's shoulder, pushing him back a bit. She grabbed my arm, pulling me off the seat, Patty gigling next to her.
"The Thompson Sister's?!"
The detective mumbled as Liz checked over her nails.
"You're done with the dyeing correct? All she needs is to let it set?"
The lady nodded, frowning a bit for intterupting her work.
"We''l be leaving then."
Without another word we left the salon, the detective calling us to come back. Patty stuck out her tongue out at them all on the way out. Once we stepped onto the pavement we ran and didnt stop until we reached the manor. Out of breath we went in.
"That was so close...so close..."
I turned to hug both Liz and Patty.
"Thanks guys...they were suspecting me, you guys came just in time. How can I ever repay you?"
~Narrator's POV~
Liz had an idea. When the words "How could I ever repay you" slipped out of _'s mouth she quickly responded.
"Well you could perhaps talk to Kid...well after your hair is ready."
You patted the top of your head, frowning slightly.
"I don't think he'd want to see me..."
"Well if we fix you up to look symmetrical again since your hair is once again a solid color, maybe a different one than oringinally but its one solid color. Maybe after that you might convince him to come out of his damn room again. Before you go _...who knows when your new partner will arrive and you'll be leaving this "silent fight" still going on between you and him."
You sighed, considering it. With yet another sigh you smiled at them, nodding.
"You're right. But first something must be done about my a-symmetrical hair!"
Laughing, you all headed to Liz's room to get you ready, symmetrical wise. They washed out your hair, revealing a lovely shade of (color). As Liz brushed your hair as symmetrical as she could, Patty painted your nails for fun (making them giraffe print). You started feeling excitement bubbling inside you.
'Finally Kid won't flinch when he sees me! Why hadn't I thought of this before? He might even consider me pretty if I'm symmetrical enough!'
A light pink blush scattered across your cheeks but you didn't give it much thought. While Liz added some light make-up as extra (what is this a DATE!? O.o) Patty rumaged through the closet for symmetrical clothes for you to change from your jeans, white top and black cardigan the thought of Kid's bandages went through your mind.
'Should I ask them...but Kid made me promise...'
You bit your lip making Liz fuss over the thin layer of lipstick she had put.
'But I'm worried...its for his own good.'
"Ummm Liz...can I ask you something."
"Huh? Oh sure."
"Well have you noticed that Ki-"
DING-DONG (stupid doorbell ruins everything .-.) You jumped from your seat, scaring Liz , Patty who yelled from the closet.
"DOORBELL! THE DOORBELL IS RINGING!"
You began to panic. What if it was the detectives and the policemen.
'They recognized Liz and Patty...they might've figured out by now where they liveand considered I'd be with them.'
Liz was having the same thoughts.
"I'll get it. I doubt Kid will...Let's go Patty...weapon form." .
"Riiiiiight!"
You watched Liz leave the room holding onto Patty's weapon form, rushing down the stairs. You waited anxiously, afraid to hear gunshots but the sound was never heard. Instead, rushing footsteps came back up, crashing through the door.
"_! It's Maka! She came with a message from Lord Death! Your partner, Night has arrived!"
