Chapter 5: Planning
"Will you help me now to find the meeting room?"
"Follow me"
There was a silence that seemed to go on for a while, Van could not help himself. He just wanted to hold her, it was driving him mad threw out the hall that she lightened up on him with the advice. The way this girl seemed to drawl him to her. The way her hair laid on her face, the way she walked so light as if she was on clouds. Just like the night she chased him, he hardly heard her. She was driving him mad, he could not think of anything else.
"Here it is."
Hitomi stopped near the meeting room door and giving him a profile views of her. Van's body seem to reach out and pull her close warping her in his arms, Hitomi went to break from him. He bent down near her ear and whisper.
"Merci, moi un rossignol." She froze hearing him whisper in her ear. It seemed to melt her. She was about to turn to him and ask him what he said to make sure it was not her mind playing tricks on her. (Translation: Thank you, my nightingale.)
He pulled back confused as to why that had come from his mouth. He turned away from her and moved to walk in the room. He caught out the corner of his eyes a faint smile creep around the profile view he had of her and a softer look to her features. He felt his heart skip. She was radiant to him, an angel. He wished to cage her and keep her for him self. He shook the thoughts knowing well that would not happen.
"Ton bienvenu." She started to walk away from him.
"Bonjour!" Came a voice from the opposite side of the hall. A long haired blond man came walking towards them. Hitomi went back to her cold self. Van could of cured, this guy ruined the atmosphere. "Hello." Van said rude and anger hinted in his voice. "Ah, good you speak English." Van walked in to the meeting room in a burst of anger. The blond looked a little confused. But it went just as fast as it came. He two continued to the meeting room. Hitomi noticed a few others and walked in after the blond. The cat girl from earlier barreled down the hall knocking Hitomi over. She was caught by a pair of strong arms. He set her up right walking past her looking out the corner of his eye his hair creating part of a shadow over his eyes. She followed the rest in closing the door behind her. There were a total of 4 others excluding herself. Van, the blond one, Merle the cat girl, and the other mysterious man. Hitomi caught the tension between them and decided to break it.
"I hope both of you don't act like this on the mission." Hitomi walked forward away from the door, not but a second she did a man came bursting him please with his entrance. Hitomi moved away from him and into a corner of the room.
"Well well, two vampires, a scientist, a cat girl, and." the man who came in turned to Hitomi. "And the French governments tool. Other wise know as Somebre Ange de Mort."
"Dark Angel of Death?" The blond questioned. "But I thought they did not go threw with the project."
"Ah but they did. She is it. You know why she is called tool." The blond shook his head. "Cause they made her only for killing us and the dirty vamps she has no other proposes but that."
Hitomi was getting angry they were talking about her. But remained silent looking away from them all.
"Your kind is really sick. If we were not having to work together I would cut that bitch's throat for killing my brother."
"Enough!"
Merle grabbed the enraged Van that slammed his fist on the table. "Lord Van."
"We did not come to talk about others. We came to stop a monster from being set loose. Now do any of you know what this meeting is about?" All of the others but Hitomi shook there head no. "Hitomi do you know?"
"We are to stay in this room and plan out what we are to do and how to split up to work this operation. In the process try and get along. We will be in Costa Rica in the morning and will be examining the abandoned lab. It was very recently occupied by the escaped scientist. We have to find finger prints and anything that can identify him. His records with the company disappeared and no one really knows his face. Once we know who he is we track him, hunt him, kill him and his creation leaving no trace it ever happened."
"Sounds simple" Merle spoke up.
"Not as simple as you think. He knows his fighting tactics. He has other followers which managed to damage me pretty badly. We were able to get a good shot of his creation but the camera was soon damaged beyond repair by them. He has been hidden for a good time now and found a good specimen for his experiments."
"I concur. He has managed to slip by and to my knowledge of the experiment he has been doing it needs a specific blood type and physical attributes to work. It took him a year to find the perfect specimen." The blond said.
"Alright, now that we know more about what the meeting is about and extra information on the mission why don't we introduce ourselves?" Van spoke calmly to the others sitting back down. Hitomi nodded in an agreement. The blond stood.
"I am Allen Schezar. I am a forensic science specialist. I have access to many DNA labs over the world if needed for specific occasions. I am very well known in the world of forensic science." Allen sat down.
"I am Draken. I may seem like a jackass but I am not all that bad. Piss me off and I will get angry. I am a werewolf." The man standing near the door still.
"I am Folken older brother of Van and resigned position of Lord of the Vampires."
"I am Van Fanel, Lord of the Vampires."
Merle shot up. "I am Merle. Lord Van's assistant in some matters." She looked at the werewolf named Draken.
All heads soon turned to Hitomi. She remained silent. She knew all eyes were on her waiting for her to speak up.
"I am Hitomi. I have no last name. My station number is 19586SZ, Classification Weapons specialist against." She paused, before continuing. "Against vampires and werewolves. I am nicked named Somebre Ange de Mort, other wise known as Dark Angel of Death. My job is to kill those who go after the commander. Failure to respond is at 20% chance."
She looked to the others. Van didn't look at her and it hurt for some reason it felt like she was stabbed.
"I strongly suggest not getting attached to me."
She knew this was not going to be an easy mission. She did not move from her spot while the others argued they turned to her and she remained silent. She got tired of the arguments and left. She needed peace from the tension that was bouncing off the scales. She walked back in after a few minutes with an idea.
"That won't work its to messy not only that you can damage evidence." "But perimeters need to be set up. What if they still have people cleaning this place out?"
"Quiet!!" Everyone turned to the annoyed Hitomi. "Why not have some of us split up in to groups. Three can set up a perimeter. The other two stand guard while Allen dose his job. If back up is needed we will have a head set for communication. If other supplies are need I am sure Dryden has them. He is out weapons and tech specialist."
Everyone soaked it in. Most ideas just breaking in beat up and leave. But Allen needed time and nothing messed up or it might become a harder task. The all had fine ways and it would work but information was needed more than trouble. Everyone agreed to her plan and thought it best to leave it at that and get some rest. They all started to pile out Folken alone, Van with Merle handing on his arm, Draken with a threatening glare at Hitomi, and Allen exhausted taking his time. Hitomi waited a while till they left wanting to be alone. Her room was not the place she wanted to go, Van would be near and with her earlier comment it did not set the atmosphere at a good mood. She walked a while around the ship it made her feel better soon wondering back to her room. She closed her eyes and breathed in and then out with heavy heave.
Part of her wanted to see Van part of her wanted to walk away afraid the organization would take him away too. She felt silly she never got attached to someone in such a short time. She liked him when she met him but maintained her cold appearance for she was being watched. She did not know if she believed in love at first sight but she guessed this was it.
Her body turned towards the door to her room grabbing the handle. Something about the way he spoke to her earlier made her want to relax knowing she was safe. She felt safe as if nothing could cause her pain. She had never felt like that. She just wanted to stay like that forever. But forever for her was a just a dream. A distant dream, she mainly had nightmares of horrific events. She was always waking up from them screaming and sweating which soon leads to crying. No one was there to tell her what was going on or to hold her and tell her it's ok. She would sit alone till it passed and cry her self to sleep. She moved turned the knob to open the door.
"About time you came back." Hitomi span around facing a shirtless Van. A few strands of hair fell over her eyes, Van smirked. "I know you warned me but it might be too late of a warning." He moved closer and towered over her eyes traveled to his deep brown-red eyes. She felt herself drown in them. They were endless, a hint of sadness appeared and left and came again shortly leaving again as well. He took his hand and moved the strands away from her eyes.
"Would you mind if we talked?"
She nodded, as he turned to walk back to his room and she followed stopping near the door. Vampires were seductive creatures, then she began to worry. He turned to her and smiled as if knew what she was thinking.
"I am not planning to hurt you. Just talk, now please come in."
An: Well there if your long chapter I promised I hope you enjoy. I will post a small one tomorrow if possible if not then that's leaves me to write a long one Sunday. Hope you all have a great week-end. I hope you like the little cliff hanger.
