Cold Ice Burning in the Heart
Chapter 5: What is going on?
HOUSE
"That should have killed them. Let's go look through the remains of the house," a tall muscular man said. He had dark black ragged hair and a scar going down his left eye to his chin. He had scars all over his arms as well. He began to walk towards the burning house.
"You heard the boss lets fined the girl so we can get the reward!" a shorter man yelled standing next to the house. He was bald and boney looking. "Not only are we going to get a lot of money but we also got to kill the top gang in the process." He said smirking.
BANG! BANG! BANG!
"AHHH! There alive! Shoot them! Watch out!" different voices started to yell from the back of the house. Quickly all of the men in front of the house ran to the back. They were greeted by the site of twelve men dead and two injured. Five were unharmed.
"What happened here? I demand one of you tell me now!" the leader of the group yelled as he walked up to one of the living men. He was shaking as he stared up at his leader.
"Well Kuzo, Ferw… we came around to the back and there they were just standing there. When they saw us we quickly attacked but this blonde chick and blue haired guy started to beat the shit out of everyone and then..."
"Wait there were only two of them?" Kuzo asked looking at the man before him. The man looked nervous and started shaking even more than before. "Well? Were there only two or not?" he asked again.
"Well only two were fighting there were nine in all… while the two were fighting us the other seven ran off that way," the man said pointing in the direction of a back street. He was starting to calm down somewhat.
"Hurry up and find them! Were not about to let 500,000 dollars get away from us!" Ferw yelled angrily as he began his way towards the street rubbing his bald head.
'Damn that was fucking close!' I thought as I led the way through the alleys. Everyone was close behind. I clutched the bag I was holding even tighter than before. 'This is going to be one long day.' I thought as I looked at the bag.
"I think were far enough from them." Talina panted as she leaned against a nearby wall to catch her breath. I looked at her for a brief moment then shook my head.
"They've probably already started looking for us again, after all they are being told were we are, aren't I right Kit?" I asked looking at her. Everyone's eyes widened as I said that.
"Kai what are you talking about now? I thought we decided she's are friend yesterday!" Nilus yelled at me with a serious look on his face. I looked at him and then turned back to Kit.
"If that's true then why did she have these? There documents on Kierra Kitsune, and there in better detail then the ones we have. It makes sense now, Tala was right you were lying about who you were." I said glaring at her as I showed the folders to everyone.
"You're a spy for them sent to gather what information we had on the girl and to eliminate us as well probably. That's why you kept leaving and why you were hurt. It was all so you could get taken in by us," Tala said coldly as he looked at Kit. I glared as well.
"You guys can't just say that because she has some documents on someone, I mean she's are friend she wouldn't do that to us," Talina started to explain.
"No. There right. I am a spy trying to gather information. My job was to kill you after I got all the information," Kit said meekly. I only saw a glimpse of it but it looked like it hurt her to say what she just said, but I quickly dismissed it as fear of what we were going to do to her.
"Kit who are you rea-," Akari was cut off by the sound of wheels screeching to a stop. It was followed by the sounds of guns shooting. We all quickly ran and turned different directions.
I watched Nilus, Max, Ray, Masika, and Akari all quickly ran down an alley way to their left sticking close to each other so they didn't get separated. Me and Talina quickly dashed to our right and ran to the end and turned left. Tala and Kit were forced to run straight before turning left then going straight again.
"Shit they found us fast. Were all in different places now it's going to be harder," Talina growled as she leaned against a wall frustrated. I smirked at her then looked around for a different path that might not end up where the people chasing us were.
"We have to find the others fast. Especially Tala and Kit. We can't let her get away, now that we know what she really does," I said in a cold voice. Talina shook her head in agreement with me. We started walking down the path again with me in the lead.
"Don't worry Kai! Were the BBA the best gang in Asia. No one can hide from us forever," Talina said laughing as we walked along.
We ducked into one of the abandoned buildings after running for a while. Once we were inside I quickly pulled out a long blade and aimed it at Kit who just stood there silently. I glared at her for not being scared and for also not saying anything.
"Well you sure are a piece of work. You definitely know how to lie and manipulate people," I said coldly staring at her. It was pissing me off how she was just looking around without a saying a word.
"So what was your job? Find out where we were then get any information about us then any information on the jobs we are doing. Oh and then after that kill us along with yourself? Or did they not tell you about the bomb to guarantee that we got killed in the explosion?" I yelled in anger at her. Her eyes still reflected no emotions about what I was saying to her. She seemed like she had been shot and was no longer alive.
"Sure," she said in a flat tone as she looked at me. Her face showed a bored, sad expression while in her eyes I could see friendly eyes that looked broken somehow.
'Damn it! Just looking at her is pissing me off right now! Why? It's not only because of what we've found out today its something else too, but what?' I yelled in my mind.
Kit sat down on the floor propping her back on the wall and resting her head on her hands. My grip tightened on the blade that was in my hand.
"Damn it you piss me off!" I yelled as I quickly moved towards Kit. I knew what I was about to do and I didn't care. Her eyes widened in fear as I almost reached her, the blade tightening even more in my grip.
Nilus disappeared yelling to us that he was going to go get information. So we knew where he was going. The hide out. After running for about half an hour Akari suggested a great idea.
"You know this idea of yours was pretty smart. It's the best idea ever; I don't know why I didn't think of it!" Max said happily as he licked his chocolate coated ice cream. I nodded in agreement with him.
"The idea of hiding in an ice cream store is so stupid that it's brilliant!" I said with a grin. Ray smiled too in agreement with all of us.
"Yup! I was hungry and it was getting hot from all the running we were doing so I guess ice cream was the first thing to come to my mind!" Akari said proudly as she ate her ice cream.
"I wonder how the others are doing. I can't believe Kit would lie to us like that. She seemed so trusting but at the same time she didn't seem trusting," Ray said as he bit into his cone. I looked at him sadly.
We all walked outside, Max and Akari still not done with their ice creams, they ordered extra large and double scooped there's. We started to walk down the street when eight men jumped out of nowhere.
"Nooooo! My ice cream! You made me drop my ice cream!" Akari yelled as she looked at the mess on the ground in front of her. Quickly I grabbed her as the four of us ran into the alley with all eight of them right behind us.
We turned a corner and came to a dead end. I let go of Akari and turned around to see the snickering faces of the eight goons who were chasing us. I smirked.
"What are you smirking about brat! You're trapped and outnumbered four to eight!" one of them yelled with a laugh. Still I stood there with a smirk and so did Ray who was now leaning against a wall.
"You made me drop my ice cream!" Akari yelled. I watched Max stand right next to her with an empty cone as well. She looked at him then glared harder at the eight men. "And you made him lose all of his ice cream!"
"So? You little babies gonna cry cause you dropped your ice cream? Boo who get over it brats," they laughed again, which I knew was a big mistake on their account. Akari and Max were touchy when it came to video games and sweets.
"You're about to pay for what you did," Max said in a low threatening growl. I leaned next to Ray knowing it was rare for Max to show anger like this, but the two younger members always were strange in my opinion.
Within seconds Akari had a man on his back and another by the arm. Max had knocked two against a nearby wall and was flipping another one into a wall. Akari dropped kicked another one who was running straight for her. Then did a back flip and landed behind the man she had been holding onto. With a swift kick Max kicked him in the chest then brought a blade to his heart.
"Wow you two sure get mad when someone drops your ice cream. I think you both over reacted just a bit, don't you think?" Ray said looking at them. I giggled in agreement with him. They looked at what they had done.
"Uh, maybe just a little bit," Akari said putting her hand behind her head. Max laughed and gave her a hug before looking at me and Ray.
"What now? Do we look for the others or go to our gang hideout? Are break is almost over you know," Max said as he pulled out blades from the dead bodies. I looked at him then thought for a second. I turned to Ray not knowing what to say.
"Well I think we should go there the others might so we'll all probably just meet up there, let's go," he said with a calm smile. I looked at him and enjoyed his smile before following him out of the alley with Max and Akari right behind.
I pulled out my knifes and started cleaning them on an already blood stained cloth. I watched as Kai did the same with his knifes. It was the third group of cronies we had run into so far.
It was getting quite boring too. There was no challenge in it for me or Kai. I could see his bored expression as he pulled out yet another blade. I smirked at him as he stepped in a pile of dog shit.
"Nice Kai, way to watch were you're going," I laughed as I watched his facial expression. I found it quite entertaining to watch him try and get dog shit off his shoes. He glared at me and then continued what he was doing.
"You know you could stop laughing now. I stepped in it ten minutes ago and I cleaned it off already. What do you find so amusing right now, Talina!" Kai growled frustrated with me. I smirked holding my nose.
"It. Still. Smells." I said with a laugh and a huge grin. He just glared harder at me and we kept on walking. Once again we ran into a group of six which we quickly finished off and began collected our blades again. "Don't step in dog shit again."
"That is not funny!" he growled. I looked at him seriously no hint that I was joking.
"I'm being dead serious," I said sternly. "The first one smelled like hell! I don't want it to get any worse!" I said bursting out with laughter.
He was on the verge of killing me and I could see it in his eyes which only made me laugh harder as we started walking again. He was silent the rest of the time before we decided we would go to the hideout.
