"Welcome!" A young woman with long sunny blonde hair and brown eyes greeted them. She was a classic American beauty. "Thank you for coming," she sighed. "I'm Amanda. The girl is in here," she lead them to a small hospital like room.
On the pristine white-sheeted bed lay a girl no older than eighteen with short dirty-blonde hair. She was still asleep and at the moment looked a lot like Hisoka.
"She's been asleep since yesterday," Amanda told them "The attack left her exhausted. Luckily we arrived before he did anything to her, but we only just barely got away,"
"Describe her attacker," Hisoka said.
"Well, I didn't get a good look at him, but he wore completely white," Amanda responded. The girl moaned in her sleep.
"What's her name?" Tsuzuki asked looking at the sleeping girl.
"She said Liz when we asked her," Amanda sighed. "Come I'll have Kristin fill you in on the other details," She lead them out into the hall.
"Would it be alright if I stayed with her?" Hisoka asked.
"Yes, that's fine," Amanda smiled "You look a lot like her, you know," she added before turning and leading the others down the hall. Hisoka went back into the room and sat in a chair next to the bed. She was the girl from his dream and Muraki had already gone after her. He wondered what she was like.
Meanwhile…
"I was the first one to arrive at the scene," Kristin, a pretty little brunette with hazel eyes said "It looked like he was going to rape her. Here, I found a picture of her attacker,"
a picture of Muraki popped up on the screen. They all tensed slightly.
"I take it you know him?" Amanda asked seeing the look on their faces.
"Yes, we've had a lot of problems with him," Tatsumi replied after a moment.
"So, what are we going to do?" Amanda asked "Her parents have been notified and said that she's eighteen now and they are waiting to hear her decision. They only want her to be safe,"
"We should probably take her back to Japan with us. She'd be safer," Watari commented.
"Yes, well, it is her decision remember," Tsuzuki said.
"We'll just have to wait till she wakes up," Tatsumi said seriously.
Back in Liz's room…
Liz opened her blue eyes and let out a soft moan. She looked around her and sat up.
"Good morning," Hisoka said making her jump in surprise. She looked at him and her eyes widened.
"Who are you?" She asked "And why do you look like me?" she asked bewildered.
"I had a dream. It started a week ago and you were in it," Hisoka said.
"A dream, about a man in white?" She asked. He nodded, "I've been having the same dream he always says 'I'm going to find out if your twin sister screams too'," She stated. "So does that mean we're twins?" She cocked her head curiously.
Suddenly a red-head with forest green eyes looked in the room.
"O good you're awake. I'll go get Amanda and the others," She said and left the room.
"How is that possible?" Liz asked "I was born here and I'm sure my parents would've told me if I had a twin," She sighed.
"Mine didn't," He said matter-of-factly "You were adopted by your parents a few days after being born,"
"But why would any parents split up twins?" She asked.
"That's a good question," He sighed again as the others entered.
"So, Liz, how are you feeling?" Amanda asked.
"I'm ok," Liz replied with a slight smile.
"Let me introduce Tatsumi, Tsuzuki, and Watari from the judgment bureau in Japan," Amanda introduced them "And I see you've already met Hisoka," She smiled.
"We have a question to ask you," Tatsumi said approaching the bed "We need you to come to Japan with us,"
"What?" Liz asked very surprised "Why?"
"The man who came after you is not going to leave you alone," Tsuzuki said "You'd be safer in Japan with us,"
"We're more experienced at dealing with him," Watari added. Liz blushed slightly.
"May I think about it for a moment?" She asked.
"Of course," Tatsumi said. They waited as she thought.
"Ok. I think I'm happy with my decision," she sighed and looked at them "I will go," she said.
"Good," Amanda sighed. Liz looked at her.
"Did you know?" Liz asked "That I had a twin?"
"I became suspicious when you started calling out to him in your sleep," Amanda replied.
"We better get going," Hisoka said helping Liz out of the bed.
"Thank you very much, Amanda," Liz shook her hand and left with them.
