Chapter 5 - Kagami's Transporter Job
"You didn't even do the job?" Hevn whined as she glared at Ban, Ginji sleeping in the bed behind them peacefully. His roommate Kazuki insisting to a nurse that he wasn't a nurse here with a slight frown.
Juubei sitting nearby with a larger frown. Likely feeling as though he should have been there to protect his childhood friend.
Ban regarded Hevn with serious blue eyes from over his sunglasses, waiting until she calmed slightly before responding to her.
"We'll get the job done," Ban said finally, " this new assistant of his is nastier than you even thought. Ginji wouldn't fight her back properly but still her skill with firearms is exceptional. We need more information on her Hevn."
Hevn sobered up a little, watching between Ginji and Ban before nodding with understanding and relenting," All right. I'll see what I can find, and ask Paul too."
Ban sighed a bit as he watched Ginji. "How could he be that stupid! Dammit, Ginji!"
"Always told Ginji he shouldn't stick around you Snake for Brains," Shido muttered as he came up to look at his friends in the hospital. "Akabane did this huh?"
"Yeah," Ban said, then added with a smirk as he pushed his sunglasses up his face, "but I wouldn't recommend going after him Monkey Boy. Less you plan to end up like Threadmaster over there."
"He's attacked two of my own," Shido answered seriously, "I can't just stand by and watch them recoup like you."
"What?" Ban muttered after the Beastmaster as he left, cursing under his breath and making fists with his hands.
Scene Switch
Constantina caught herself before she sighed in longing at her boss as he walked away from the job after recieving payment. Her cellphone casting her cheek in a light glow as it let a soft ring in her ear, waiting for the next job she'd lined up for him to answer as she opened the car door for him then headed around to drive him.
Finally there was the 'click' followed by a low voiced "Hello"
"Greetings," Constantina offered sweetly, a smile edging onto her lips, "you ready for us?"
"Yes, come to the agreed meeting place within an hour," the voice responded cooly before another click echoed in her ear.
She flipped her phone shut and then started the Hummer, enjoying the roar of the engine as she pulled off. They didn't speak much of anything but she was just happy she could be so close to him for this job. Hoping she would get to see him at his art again.
They arrived at the dock and waited. The job had been a specific request for Akabane which meant it could likely be a trap. Best be early or on time for the game. They waited calmly for a while. Akabane gazing at the rising moon, the sunset behind him, while beautiful, didn't fit him at all. He deserved to do his work under the moonlight.
"You can't have everything though," Constantina thought as several dozen men with guns stepped forward. At their head a fairly handsome man with short spiky blond hair, a single mirrored earing, and a white suit. She didn't recognize them but at Akabane's smile she figured he did and was all the more proud she'd taken this job.
"Kagami wasn't it?" Akabane asked as he smiled lightly, "you offered me some fun. Why is it we're here? And with all the guns. Constantina dear, you wouldn't mind taking out the extra's so you don't miss the show? I don't want to deny you your entertainment after all."
He hadn't finished the last word before several of the dozen men were already down. By the time any caught up with what was happening by her shots in nearly inhuman succession they were down to 2. Each missed the one shot they had to take out the threat to them before bullets entered their heads as well. The first that had been hit in the head hadn't even all hit the ground before she'd finished the last. A burst of deadly cold talent with her weapons that she rarely chose to show. Reloading each clip and putting the weapons away so she could pull her camera.
"I see," Kagami said with a lazy interest, watching the girl and Akabane, "you've found yourself a girlfriend sense our last encounter. How...quaint..."
"Are you going to get to why you called me here or shall I skip to the interesting part?" Akabane asked easily, amused by his assistant's prowess.
"I have a job for you." Kagami answered with a slight shrug, keeping his superior aire. "Something I want you to transfer to Bablyon City."
"Why not take it yourself?" Akabane asked, not frightened, more engergized by the idea, given he'd been kicked out of Bablyon City years ago.
"I have things to observe out here. Never enough eyes after all." Another slight shrug. "Yes or no, it won't be easy even for someone of your calibur Dr. Jackal."
"Oh, if you say it like that then I am definetly interested, hopefully there will be more of a challenge than your useless parlor tricks." he mocked with a light laugh, raising one hand to hold his hat and twist it where he could regard the white suited man with one violet eye.
Kagami tensed with annoyance a moment, still remembering that he could do almost litterally nothing to the infamous Dr. Jackal. But then, he wasn't being serious. He forced a thin lipped smile. "If you accept your job is the transfer of Ginji Amano the former leader of the Volts, Lightning Emperor and ruler of the lower floors of the Limitless Fortress. He's in his hospital room and will not wake up from the sleep one of our contacts have put him in. If Midou bothers you give him this."
He tosses a disc in a case to Akabane, who easily catches it and hands it off to a aptly listening Constantina.
"Though," Kagami answers with a smirk, "I wouldn't recommend having your fan girl tag along. She hasn't the skill to survive even with your help."
Kagami turned and walked away. Akabane laughed lightly again after him.
"He does say such interesting things..." he agreed with his old statement, "shall we then Constantina? I'm a bit peckish, it seems I let you have all the fun and I promised to treat you."
Constantina only through force of will keeps the grin from forming on her features. It's seen easily enough in her eyes. Following the doctor without worry for the white suited mans insults...
