I Got You
Chapter 4: Ready? Fight!

Not long after arriving at the station, Natsuki was called to the chief's office for a lecture about proper police conduct. Needless to say, she lost count how many times she received the chief's 'You are a police officer. The citizens turn to you when they need help. You must be a good role model and set an example for the people of Fuuka.' speech. While Natsuki was being lectured, Nao processed the jail papers for Natsuki's 'free arrest'.

"Hey hey. You, the red head."

Trying to ignore the call for her attention, she plugged a pair of earphones and started to listen to music. Unfortunately, she didn't charge the batteries on her mp3 so it died after a song.

"Hey!"

"God! What the hell do you want?!"

Throwing the mp3 into one of the dressers, Nao sat up and faced the man sitting in front of her desk.

"Who was that girl that arrested me?"

"Why do you wanna know?"

"Because I'm curious."

"Why are you curious?"

"Because I wanna know."

Leaning back into her chair, Nao examined the person in front of her. Not sure if he's serious or not, Nao looked through the papers she just processed to check if he was checked into any mental hospitals or not. Seeing a clean record, she went to read the name she wrote not too long ago.

"Look here...Masashi. You're going after something you can't get. It's best if you'd give up."

"Why?"

"Because she already has someone" Nao said with a grin

"You're lying."

"I would never lie."

A girl named Aoi passed by, sharing an office with Nao, she knew the girl's habits. "That's a lie right there."

A certain chestnut haired officer knocked on the door and came in the office. She smiled at all the occupants of the room except for the guy in handcuffs. I have a feeling I won't be liking you very much.

"Fujino-san, what can I do for you?" Aoi asked

"I'm actually looking for Natsuki. Do you know where she is?"

Nao started to laugh "Yeah, she's at the chief's office getting scolded."

The sounds of the chief's yelling can be heard even if the doors to his office was closed. Since the blinds of the window on the door wasn't closed, said chief was waving his finger in the air giving Natsuki a proper scolding. The girl just sat in the hair nodding her head. Everyone else knew better, everything the chief says goes though one ear and out the other.

Leaving Nao and Aoi's office, Shizuru turned on her heels and made her way out the door.

"Oi! Fujino! Take this thing to a cell until someone bails him out."

"I believe that's your job, Yuuki-san."

"Yeah, well. Your partner arrested him, I just did the paper work."

Takeda sat there observing the conversation between the two. Hey! Did this cop just called me 'thing'? Shizuru was approaching him with a poker face. Wait, she's that officer's partner. Maybe I can get a name from her.

Not soon after, Takeda was lead to the holding cell. Being the only occupant, he found the stare of a certain officer a bit disturbing. She didn't look horrible, in fact, she had a smile on. Somehow he couldn't figure out why he's feeling a noticeable amount of hostility from the chestnut haired woman.

"Um, excuse me. You're that officer's partner, right?"

"Ara, why do you want to know?"

"I would like to know her name."

"And why is that?"

"Because, I just do."

Not too far from the cell, the door to the chief's office opened and Natsuki walked out. The station has an unspoken rule about not talking to the blue haired wonder after being scolded about proper conduct. It was always best to let her shoot her anger away at the shooting range before having a proper safe conversation with said officer. Unfortunately for Takeda, he doesn't know about the unspoken rules.

"Excuse me! Hey, officer!"

Natsuki stopped dead in her tracks upon hearing the voice. Turning to the origin of the sound, she found the man had been locked in a cell by her partner.

"Can I get you name?"

"..."

"No? Ok. How about when I get out of here we can go on a date?"

Natsuki was cracking her knuckles making her way slowly towards the boy. Lucky for him, Nao heard the whole thing and decided to step in.

"Hey Natsuki, wouldn't you love to set that new record down at the shooting range?"

Turning to the red head, Natsuki slumped her shoulders and gave a small smile. If she did went and beat the poor soul out of the boy then she'd get another scolding. Shooting her frustration on a dummy at the shooting gallery was better. No scolding. Turning back to the direction of the cell, she found that the boy was now on the floor sleeping. Why the hell did he just fell asleep on the floor? Not giving a second thought, she made her way to the shooting gallery in the basement.

Once Natsuki was out of sight, Shizuru turned around to face the cell. Indeed Takeda was on the floor but he wasn't sleeping. What Natsuki didn't see, being distracted by Nao, was when Shizuru pulled out the taser gun she shot Takeda with. Involuntary spasms and dilated pupils were the obvious effects. Affecting the senses and peripheral nervous system were the ones less obvious. Detaching the wires from the gun, she plucked the two probes from the twitching body and threw them away. Loading another cartridge into the taser gun, the woman let out a small grin. No one but me gets to date my Natsuki.

Turning around, the chestnut haired woman saw Nao with a surprised look on her face. From her expression it's obvious she saw the whole scene. Shizuru just bowed to the woman then smiled walking away from the cell. Nao's eyes followed the Shizuru until she was out of sight.

"Ok. Unspoken rule number 3. Don't ask Natsuki on a date while Fujino is armed."

-

Down at the shooting gallery, Natsuki was shooting her fustriations away. Every shot made her more relaxed and a step closer to having a safe conversation with. Consintrated on firing her gun, only taking a break to reload, she didn't notice the stall next to hers was not being occupied. Only after she depleted another clip, did she notice the extra gun shots. Looking at the stranger's target, most of the shots were dead on. Leaning over to see who it was, she was a bit suprised that it was her partner.

"Nice shot."

"Ara, did I impress Natsuki?"

"A bit..."

After several shots, Natsuki emptied the final magazine into the target and called it a day. Glancing at the stall next to her is empty, she wondered why she never noticed when the other girl left. Upon arriving at the office level, Nao was packing up and ready to go home.

"Leaving early?"

"Done shooting?"

As if looking around for any possible signs of danger and finding none, Nao decided to ask.

"Wanna go out for a bite to eat before heading home?"

"I still have papers to file. Plus I just got here."

"Oh, that's right. Have fun with your graveyard shift tonight."

"Shut it. You know it's never fun."

"I had a little bit of fun." a smirked appeared on the red head's face

"What'd you do?"

Nao kept the smirk on her face while walking away. Natsuki was left to ponder. Aoi entered the office also packing up to head home. Being Nao's partner, she must know what that fool was up to.

"Hey, what did Nao do?"

"Huh? Well, she wasn't in the office very much so I guess she was just walking around. She's hard to keep an eye on you know."

"Tell me about it."

Making her way out the office, the blue haired wonder didn't have anything to do. She had office duty so no patrol. Arriving at her office, she sat in her desk looking at the pile of paper work that was placed there. There was no question that the paper work increased to further as an extension of the chief's scolding. Hours passed by and the mountain tall pile of paper work never seemed to decrease. It's been a while since she saw any signs of her partner either. Stupid uncomfortable skirt. Still wondering what happened to her pants, Natsuki kept pulling down the skirt to keep it from riding up. A knock came on the door, it opened a second later to reveal Natsuki's visitor.

"Tate?"

"Kuga?!"

The boy entered the office and sat in front of her desk. Putting the pen down, she crossed her arms and leaned back into her chair.

"What can I do for you?"

"They told me a friend of mine was arrested. Didn't think he was arrested by you."

Looking through a different stack of paper, she found the file that was filled out by Nao earlier.

"Oh, that guy earlier. Hmm, Takeda or something. Right?"

"Yeah."

"Came to pay bail?"

"That's right."

Sighing, she scanned over the file and shrugged. Standing up she motioned the boy to follow her. It took a while for Tate to register that Natsuki was wearing a skirt. When he did notice, the girl already had an explanation and a threat ready.

"Kuga, never thought you'd be wearing the skirt."

"Shut up. I had no choice today."

"Mai would probably die in shock seeing you like that."

"I bet she would."

It was silent until they reached the front desk. Natsuki processed some more papers for the bail and asked another officer to get the boy.

"Oi Kuga, how's Mai?"

"Why do you want to know?"

"I can't know?"

"Should you even be allowed to know?"

"..."

Moments passed by and Takeda emerged. Being dragged by two other officers since, for some unknown reason, his legs kept twitching. Tate signed the paper and was given Takeda. Sensing that Takeda was about to open his mouth, Natsuki gave a small glare to the boy as if to say keep your mouth shut if you'd like to be released unscathed. Successfully, it worked. Turning on her heels, Natsuki was about to walk back to her office.

"Oi, Kuga. C-can you tell Mai to call me?"

"Sure."

"Can you convince her to call me?"

"No."

"Why not?"

She started walking away stopping a few moments later. Turning her head back towards him she saw the a hint of desperation in his eyes. Staying faithful to her friend's request she gave him the only answer she could.

"I'm not the one who cheated on her."

Natsuki walked away leaving the boy with his friend. When Takeda was finally able to move, the two left the police station and made their way to Tate's car.

"Hey, Yuuichi. You know that girl?"

"Yeah, the best friend of an ex. Why you ask?"

"Can you hook me up with her?"

"I think you have a better chance having your nose broken by her then going out with her."

Back inside the station, much of the officers were packing up since it was already time to go home. There were only a handful of officers who also had the night duty. maneuvering herself between the desk, Natsuki once again arrived in her office. This time, she finds her partner filing the paperwork she had finished earlier.

"Where were you?"

"Hm, was my cute little partner worried about me?"

Turning her head in all directions suddenly finding the floor interesting. Natsuki hesitantly looked up at the other girl who was obviously enjoying the moment.

"A bit..."

"Natsuki shouldn't have to worry. I was just running a small errand."

Finally sitting down at her chair, she felt the skirt ride up again and pulled the helm of the skirt down once more.

"Natsuki in a skirt. I hear such a thing is a rare sight."

"Of course it is!"

Moving closer to the raven haired girl's desk, Shizuru sat down on the edge. Her own skirt riding up at the movement instantly revealing her smooth as porcelain thigh. Obviously Natsuki became aware of this and suddenly looked down at the file she was holding. Even if her head was looking down, her eyes kept going back to the woman's thigh.

"Is Natsuki wearing the skirt because of me?"

"What?"

"As I remember, Natsuki was focused on staring at my legs the other day."

"No I wasn't."

"Does Natsuki want me to check her out too? I certainly wouldn't mind."

"No thank you."

Shizuru's smile never left her face, after all, it was fun to tease her partner.

"Hm, well I'll have all night to check out Natsuki."

"All night?"

"Yes, I have the night shift too."

Leaning closer to Natsuki's face, she stopped as soon as their nose touched. As if an electric circuit was complete, once their noses made contact, Natsuki's face lit up with a bright shade of red. Seconds passed and the chestnut haired woman opted to kiss the girl on the forehead instead. Not being able to think, Natsuki's senses went blank. Only able to feel the slight heat of the kiss on her forehead and smell the sweet sent of the perfume the other woman wore. Pulling back, Shizuru stood up to stare at the girl before her who was still red.

"Uhh..."

"A good luck kiss for Natsuki."

"Good luck?"

"Yes."

Resigning herself to just let things be, Natsuki tried her best to return back to her normal facial complexion. Various tries only made a small progress. She sighed again and leaned back in her chair.

"It's gonna be a long night."

The other woman stood up from her spot on Natsuki's desk and started to walk towards the door. Natsuki's eyes followed her there until she stopped in front of the door. Shizuru turned around giving the other girl a wink.

"Long night, indeed."
