Hehe, please don't kill me for the very, very, very long wait for an update. I would give excuses but they'd probably sound really pathetic on screen so I'm going to try and avoid any patheticness on my part (I don't think it's working...) But anyway, lucky for you, my lovely readers, I was hit by some inspiration and so here I am, on my bed, listening to Linkin Park while writing this chapter.

Oh, and if you haven't already, I'd suggest checking out the updated chap 5 otherwise this won't make much sense. As always, read and review!

And once again, italics are flashbacks.

Don't Pretend You Know Me

Chapter Six

Answers, Decisions and Revelations

Train blinked groggily as he opened his eyes, and wondered how he managed to get back into his bed. The last thing he remembered was vomiting on the stairs. He sat up and groaned as his headache came back with a vengeance. Looking off to his left he noticed Eve was sitting on a chair by his bed, asleep. Confused, he looked at the clock on the bedside table and was startled by the fact that it was 10 at night.

"Ah, you're awake." Train looked up to see Sven in the doorway.

"Yea, sorry for worrying you." Train rubbed the back of his head sheepishly and chuckled before quieting as Eve stirred.

"You should be." Sven scolded a scowl on his face. "Nearly gave me a heart attack when I found you passed out on the stairs. Care to explain what happened yesterday? I know this has something to do with it Train." Sven pulled up another chair on the opposite side of the bed to Eve and sat in it.

Train sighed; normally he didn't mind sharing things he never used to, especially after the whole Creed thing. But this was something very personal, maybe be even more personal than Saya, it was after all, someone he knew before everything about assassinations and guns came into his life, when he was normal. This was something he didn't want to ruin his memories of, Annalise reminded him of a time when his life was peaceful.

"I just didn't expect her to use poisons." He said offhandedly, trying to avoid the subject. But Sven didn't react the way Train thought he would.

"Poisons! Why didn't you say anything Train! You could die from this!" He had stood up rapidly, sending his chair to the floor and Eve jolted awake.

"What's happening?" She asked groggily, rubbing at one of her eyes.

"Nothing, I'm not dying Sven. She said I wouldn't and I don't think that the dosage would be large enough to kill me anyway." Train said, annoyed, showing them a small scratch on his arm as if it was proof.

Sven scowled and picked up his chair and sat on it.

"Explain." Was all he said and Eve nodded her agreement, having guessed at what they were talking about.

Sighing softly in defeat, Train leaned forward and began to retell the events of the day before.

"Hello Choo Choo." Annalise's eyes flickered warily to Eve before returning to Train. "It's been a long time, hasn't it?"

"Yea, it has." Train agreed after getting over his shock of seeing her in person again. "I never thought that you of all people would get into showbiz."

Annalise smiled lightly. "And I never thought that you would do something like become the famed 'Black Cat.'" The reply was smooth and Train and Eve frowned, wondering how she knew something that no one outside of the underground knew about famous assassins. Annalise laughed at their faces.

"Give me some credit Train. Just because I changed my career plans doesn't mean that I changed completely, fame is just my day job. Although I must admit that I never thought that I'd be working on your old side of the law." She chuckled again Train's expression changed to one of shock and he stood up from the bench, Eve followed suit.

"What does she mean Train?" Eve had an idea, but she wanted to hear it from Train.

"Eve, you have to go." Train's statement startled her, he had never ordered her to leave like that, only with Creed was she told to stay away.

She tried to voice those thoughts. "But-"

"GO!" His forcefulness startled her and it was only until she saw the look in his eyes did she understand, this was deeply personal to him. And so she left, but something in Annalise's eyes made her hide in the bushes a few metres away.

"She's cute. Where'd you find her?" Annalise asked, seemingly amused, as Eve disappeared from view.

Train had to grin at that. "It's a long story. She's going to be a sweeper."

Annalise smiled lightly. "But she's not very good at spying, is she?" A rustle in the bushes signified Eve's quick departure.

"True, but Eve isn't why you're here, right?" Train cocked his head to the side as he studied her.

"Good point, I'm here to remind you of something." Annalise then pulled out something that Train certainly did not expect.

"After that we argued, we fought and when she got that scratch on me she said that I should go to her when I wanted the answers I've wanted since I left her and then she left and I came back here." Train finished his story and leaned against the headboard of the bed and yawned. "Hey Sven, since I'm still sick and all could you get me some milk?" Sven nearly face vaulted.

"If you're not dying go get it yourself!" He yelled angrily before putting his head into his hands and muttered. "Bastard, making me worry, leaving out details in something as important as the fact that he was poisoned and then he has the gall to ask for milk. I wonder why I work with him some days."

Sighing he stood up and walked over to Eve and took her hand, pulling her up until she stood. "Come on Eve, it's time we both went to bed." Eve nodded and left with him.

Train scowled in mock anger as he also stood up, although a little shakily, and headed towards the fridge in the kitchen. "How rude, not getting me milk when I'm sick."

Annalise stared at the folder in front of her as though it could give her the answers she needed. Of course it didn't tell her anything but she still pondered whether she should give it to him or let him seek her out for it. She had only briefly read it once, it was mainly for him so she just made sure that the information was correct and all there. She looked outside the window of her trailer, she was currently on the set of her new movie and she wished she could be anywhere but where she was at the moment, but for some reason she felt the need to try and repay the White's for all they had done for her and Tracey seemed to want her in this business and so Annalise would work even if she wanted nothing more than to be outside of the spotlight. It of course didn't help that the murder at the dinner party she was at had made it to every news outlet in the country, she was just glad that no one knew that it was her who had killed the diplomat.

Shaking herself out of her thoughts Annalise stepped outside her trailer for a walk around the sets, she was needed on set soon so she was headed towards the set where they were shooting, all thoughts of Train out of her head as she focused on the part she was about to play.

Rins was ecstatic at her new source of information, whoever it was who had sent her that file seemed to have more resources than her, and for once she didn't care. She was currently writing up her report on Annalise to be sent to Sephiria, she had come to that conclusion that it was Sephiria who had given her this assignment as she knew no one else who had the codename I.

Rins had to admit that she was shocked by what she had discovered. Not only the fact that Annalise was one of the Chronos numbers but her incredible use of her botanic knowledge in her work was incredible. She could calculate the exact time of death by manipulating both the type and mix of toxins as well as the dosage, a single cut from Annalise could result in sudden heart failure 12 hours later.

But there was one thing that had shocked Rins more than anything was what she had found on Annalise's biological parents.

And that's the end of that chapter. I hope I didn't disappoint or made things even more confusing (it was supposed to clear a couple of things but I don't know if it did...) On another note I need to ask something. If I could have some suggestions on what Annalise's weapon should be that would be amazing, I'm having trouble coming up with anything good that's also original (meaning nothing like what's already there, taking into account that all the other Number's have very different weapons)

You just have to take into her fighting style into account, seeing as she's graceful, fast and not physical powerful and she only needs to make small wounds to defeat her opponents, as shown in this chapter. So just put your suggestions in your review or pm me or whatever, I really need to figure this out or I probably won't be able to finish this story the way I want to. Hopefully the next chap won't take this long to update.
