"Since the appearance of that woman, all of our plans are falling into shit!" Taichi fumed as he handed a picture of a woman in her twenties with long chestnut hair and hazel-brown eyes. He sighed haughtily and positioned his hands behind his head and leaned back against his chair for support.
Opposite of his desk, a man, unknown in the dimness of the room, watched the picture intensely before replying one single word.
"Beautiful..."
Taichi glanced at him from his position and groaned in disbelief. This was the last thing he wanted from someone he collaborates - falling in love with the enemy. A few minutes past and he sighed, mentioning that he was getting enough of it. Taichi blinked a few times before he was even aware that the man was drooling over the picture.
"Stop that!" Taichi ordered him in disgust where the man looked up with a fierce stare.
Taichi exhale noisily, but was confused why the man gave him that look, but still he continued.
"You're here for the task and I can't tolerate if someone's already going gaga over her!" he said, before searching his pack of cigarettes in his pockets.
The man nodded irritably and grunted. He was angry that Taichi interrupted him from his dream with the woman on the picture. Satisfying the man that was being wanted the most in all the countries; he placed the picture back on the desk, but tried to peek if he had the chance when Taichi wasn't looking.
Once Taichi found his cigarette, he lit it up and started smoking it. He felt much better when he did that. It was like all the weight on his shoulders was disappearing, leaving him in a reverie… But he snapped when he saw the man staring at him warily.
"You look tired," the man alleged.
"Sorry, I haven't slept for days now…" Taichi told him as he yawned after that.
"It's not only that girl that's disturbing you, isn't it?" the man asked, folding his arms in front of his chest.
"Yeah… The girl cannot be compared to what I hate yet panic the most right now. Tachikawa's just a little challenge for me that I can wipe out any time. Unlike her, there's another one that's been threatening me from the beginning when I started this entire damn operation." Taichi grumbled when he slammed his fist on the desk, leaving the man with a smirk.
'And that leaves only to one single man that's been my rival ever since too. Yamato Ishida.' Taichi thought when he frowned.
"Yamura, I assume?" the man replied like he could read his mind.
Taichi glanced at him. Although he couldn't see his face, he knew he was smirking. "How'd you now?" Taichi asked as he placed his cigarette on the side of his lips so he could speak.
"It figures…" the man said matter-of-factly, giving him a hint of anger in his voice. "He has already put dozens of my men in jail plus ruining my life."
"How?" Taichi wondered.
"You sure want to know?" the man asked.
Taichi only nodded. The man crooked forward from his chair and that's when Taichi wished he'd never agreed on the first place. The man that's been in darkness for hours has now revealed his face to him.
The first thing that Taichi noticed was a large cut that started from his skull, through his closed eye till it reached the end of his cold blue lips. His red-brown hair was so long that he tied it up in a ponytail from not getting it in his way. Because of the large cut, he only managed to look through one eye and that's when Taichi saw the twinkle in his eye. Revenge - hatred. Just like him.
From the sight of this, Taichi saw him like a kind of pirate, but only his malformed face made him think as a slaughterer in horror pictures. Besides, that's what he is anyway.
"He… did that?" Taichi was left with no words.
He was scared, yet excited at the same time. He could only whisper out his name in disbelief. His cigarette had already fallen from his mouth on his desk. A trail of smoke emerged afterwards, dimming it down.
"Scared?" The man called Koushiro, said.
"H-How… How did it happen?" Taichi wanted to know.
At this, Koushiro sat back in his chair, back in the dimness of the room.
"As much as I like to make it clear to you, I can't inform you how I got this mark." Koushiro replied. "It brings me back memories I wish to forget."
"I understand." Taichi nodded thoughtfully, regaining his strength to look at him in the eye.
"Now, what was my mission again?"
XxXxX
"YOU DID WHAT!" Mimi's voice was loud and clear causing the whole building to hear her.
"Like it told you before, I was racing against them and I after that I challenged them to drive into each other. That's when I hit them first and well your car exploded after that…. But I still had the time to get away from it…" Yamato explained, while scratching the back of his head uneasily.
"I don't care if you escaped! I care about my car!" Mimi yelled.
"Miss Tachikawa, would you please calm down a minute?" Jyou asked her gently, yet with a hint of irritation. He was scared that his boss would come to see all the commotion that one single woman was making towards on of his agents.
"How can I be calm?" Mimi spat. "He destroyed my car!" she said, while pointing towards Yamato.
"Look, I'm very sorry for you car…" Yamato apologized, slowly losing patience.
"Shut up!"
Yamato sighed while gritting his teeth. He knew this had to come sooner or later, but he never expected to be so soon. Suddenly he was got off guard and felt a heavy punch on the left side of his cheek. He didn't saw that coming.
"What the hell is wrong with you?!" Yamato shouted when he looked down at the one who punched him.
"There's nothing wrong with me! It's you who's putting me into this!" Mimi exclaimed.
"I already said sorry so what do you want me to do?!"
"How about paying me back first? That's sounds reasonable!"
"What! I won't pay you for that shit! It's not even worth it!"
"It is to ME! Now hand over the money!" Mimi yelled while opening her palm.
Yamato looked away from her hand and stared at Jyou. "I didn't do it on purpose." he groaned at him furiously.
Jyou didn't give any comment, but sighed instead. Yamato groaned. He took his wallet from his pockets and handed her a handful of money, not caring how much he had given to her.
"Here." he spat. "Hope you pick a better colors than pink." he replied amusingly.
Mimi glanced at him fiercely and ripped the money from him on purpose to cut him in his hand.
"Watch it!"
"Oops, sorry. It slipped." Mimi smirked.
Yamato send her a furious glance before mumbling something underneath his breath which she didn't catch it.
"Now, could we please get to the point here?" Jyou pleaded to the two. "We already lost half of our precious time with this bickering and we need to get this over quickly."
Yamato and Mimi nodded and each of them took a seat on the table. Hours have passed and Yamato saw the sundown outside the window. He wished this meeting would be over soon so that he could dash in his room and jump in bed to relax, but no… he had to stay here, hearing all of Jyou's nagging when he finally came to a conclusion which took hours of explanation.
"…since the Frontiers know you will have a party tomorrow, you can count on that they will come and assassin you." Jyou told her.
Mimi had a blanked expression on her face, but she knew this was coming. "I wished I had never made that remedy…" she whispered "…but as doctor… It's my duty to risk my life for others…"
"Hey, it's me who's risking my life here to save your butt unless you didn't figure it out yet." Yamato reminded her.
"And I appreciate it…" Mimi whispered, full with sincerity.
"Don't cheer yet, princess, I didn't say I was going to do this." Yamato sneered. "You assumed I was." he trailed off with a smirk.
"WHY YOU!"
Mimi was ready to stand up, but Jyou was on time to hold her back with a sweat drop.
"Please you two…stop fighting…" Jyou pleaded. "We already have enough to worry about and with you two already disputing from the beginning will not solve anything. Now, please stop and listen carefully to what I've got to say." Jyou ordered them.
Yamato sighed from frustration and Mimi sat back in her chair.
"Miss Tachikawa I will make sure that Agent Yamato will come to your party and protect you from any harm even if he doesn't want to." he said as he eyed towards Yamato.
Yamato made a sound but only kept his cool and closed his eyelids.
"Don't worry, I promise." Jyou finally told her. Mimi nodded.
"Good." Jyou said when he stood up. "I think it's better to leave the rest for tomorrow and jump into our beds." he proposed when he saw Mimi yawning. "I will gladly escort you to your house Miss Tachikawa, but unfortunately I have some arrangements to complete. Yamato!"
"Huh - What?" Yamato startled by hearing his name. He was already dozing off when someone rudely yelled at him. "What is it this time?" he fumed when he set an elbow on the table while his head rested in his hand for support.
"Would you be kind and escort Miss Tachikawa back to her house safely." Jyou informed him.
"What!" Yamato's hand slipped, making his shin hit the table slightly hard than he had expected. "Why do I have to do that?" he protested. "I'm tired too, you know."
"Well, I wouldn't be asking for it if I still had my car, but since a stupid moron wrecked it in pieces I guess you have no choice then." Mimi reminded him smugly.
"Why do you always have to put your car into this conversation?" Yamato growled.
"Well, let me remind you that it is you who stole it, wrecked it and yet will pay for it!" Mimi replied joyfully, showing once again the money he had handed to her earlier.
"Stop already!" Yamato shouted.
"What's with all that yelling?" a voice asked.
"Yeah man… I can't even hear myself arguing with the redhead anymore…" another voice followed.
"Shut up, Daisuke!" Jun growled.
"Hey, it's true!" a boy with dark-brown hair said.
"Whatever…"
The girl with red-spiky hair entered the common room only to see Jyou, Yamato and one girl she never saw before. Ignoring the fact that the girl was even there, Jun went directly to where her heart was leading; Yamato. Much to his dismay of course.
'This day keeps getting better and better…' Yamato thought when he saw her coming up to him.
"Yamato! You're back!"
Within a second, Jun took Yamato's arm and dragged him around in circles. "Why didn't you tell me you arrived?" she asked. "I was so worried about you! Its' been hours the last time I heard you on the phone!"
"Oh, yeah that. It led me straight into danger. Thank you for that by the ways." Yamato muttered sarcastically.
Jun heard his reply, but decided to ignore it and started hugging him tightly. "Please forgive me from what I did earlier." she said when she looked at him with her puppy-dog eyes. "I will make it up to you!"
"I'd rather not." Yamato groaned as he tried to break free from her tight hug.
Once released, he glanced at the brunette that was behind Jun. He saw how Mimi was trying hard to keep herself from laughing. Yamato frowned and sat back in his chair, mumbling about something how he will pay back at her. Jun saw this too and walked up to the giggling woman.
"And who might you be?" she asked to Mimi.
Mimi stopped and stared at her before putting on a smile. "Oh, I'm sorry. My name's Mimi. Mimi Tachikawa." she introduced herself while bowing down.
"Mimi eh? I hope you're not planning on taking my Yamato, 'cause he's mine!" Jun firmly said, ignoring her totally.
"Quit it, Jun…" Daisuke said teasingly. "How on earth will he ever fall in love with someone as ugly as you?"
"Shut up, bro!"
"Just joking."
"Trust me; if I ever want to have a relationship, it's definitely not with him." Mimi spoke up to assure her.
"Is that so? Good. But if you are lying then you will regret it." Jun said menacingly before going away from her.
'What's her problem?' Mimi thought when she saw Jun walking away from the common room. 'How could she ever think I would fall for him…? Hello! He was the one who destroyed my car!'
"I'm sorry for all the sudden commotion." Jyou suddenly said to Mimi. "But let me introduce you to Agent 1056 as known as Daisuke Motomiya."
"Pleased to meet you, Miss." Daisuke bowed. "Oh, and don't mind my sister though. She's just pissed off every time she sees a girl next to Yamato."
"I see…" Mimi sighed.
"Well, I think you should head back now." Jyou thought out loud to Mimi when he saw her yawning again.
"I think its better too…" Mimi said, now rubbing her eyelid.
"Come on, Yamato. It's your task to bring her back." Jyou reminded him.
Yamato groaned frustratingly and closed his eyes. "You know…" he started, catching everyone's attention. "Now that the princess has met Daisuke, he can bring her back. No reason for me to move my butt from here."
"Yamato! Daisuke is not fit to do this kind of thing yet and Miss Tachikawa can't walk by herself in the streets!" Jyou scolded furiously. "With all those famous perverts wandering around and Team Frontier behind her back is dangerous for her!"
"So what, I don't care…"
"Yamura! I'm losing my temper here you know!" Jyou warned him.
"Hey, I can do it in his place!" a voice yelled out making everyone's gaze turning towards the entrance of the common room. Yamato opened one eye, but closed it right away when he knew who it was.
"Hey, Mike! Where have you been?" Daisuke asked while making a high-five in the air with him.
"Cleaning out the mess Yamato made this afternoon." Michael replied at him.
He then turned towards Mimi, making his eyes stare from her feet across her body to her face. Mimi shuddered from where he had set his eyes on her. She knew without delay he was someone she didn't trust at the first place.
"You sure you want to bring her back?" Jyou asked sighing, breaking Michael's attention.
"Of course. I'd be glad to do this for a beautiful woman like her." Michael said, glancing back at her.
Turning back, he walked up to her and bowed on a polite way. "May I introduce myself?" He said. "My name's Michael but I'm also known as Mike or just Agent 1016." He explained.
"H-Hi, I'm Mimi. Mimi Tachikawa." she said, feeling uneasy.
"The name suits you." Michael replied seductively, making Mimi shiver down her spine.
She only nodded by this, but she was feeling insecure of herself if she really wanted to have him along the way. Without even having the chance to speak, Mimi felt herself drag outside the common room with Michael around her.
"I can't wait to show you my new Mercedes I have bought a week ago." he told her.
"Um…yeah…that sounds… nice…" Mimi said slowly.
Even though Yamato had his eyes closed, he opened them instantly when he saw how Michael was dragging her like some kind of doll. Suddenly something hit him inside. Without further ado, he sighed and spoke up on a cold tone.
"And where do you think you're going? Bring your butt back here. I changed my mind…"
Everyone turned around and looked at him.
"What makes you change all of a sudden?" Daisuke asked him skeptically.
Yamato didn't reply, but he only stood up and walked towards the two at the front door. He forgot how Michael could have perverted imaginations whenever he was alone with a girl. Much as he disliked admitting it to himself, he didn't want her to be caught up too and getting her involved with that messed-up Casanova.
"I'll do this." Yamato said coldly, standing in front of him.
"But I thought you didn't want to?" Michael reminded him.
"Yea, I know, but I have to pick up something before it's closed." he replied, still holding the coldness in it.
"Oh, Okay then…" Michael turned over to Mimi and took her hand to give it a kiss. "Looks like I can't show you my car then…"
"That's okay…" Mimi said, keeping her relief inside of her. "There's still tomorrow."
She wished she had never said that, but she was content that he wasn't coming along. Though she didn't really like him, it was much better than the other.
"Are you coming?" Yamato asked her, not showing any emotions.
Mimi nodded and waved the others goodbye before she followed him behind towards the parking lot. The parking lot was huge when she arrived and she never imagined seeing thousands of expensive cars all at once. She was almost drooling when she passed a car after another, but none of them were as cool as that from Yamato's. She gasped.
Mimi stood in awe when they stopped in front of a Viper. It was so cool that Mimi didn't even consider seeing such car in front of her. The color was black and there were two silver stripes that started from the front and ended on the back. She hated to admit it, but he had a taste for cars, she thought.
'Maybe he can pick me a new car… Since he's the one who paying for…' she smirked at the thought.
"What are you smirking at?" Yamato asked.
"Nothing…" Mimi replied dreamily before stepping inside.
She was greeted by a nice perfumed scent and once she was seated she trailed her fingers on the fabric, noticing it was leather that she touched. Staring around her, she noticed everything was black inside. A small television screen was set on the front, meaning that he could communicate with the HQ without using a cell phone.
Lost in the amazement of the car, she didn't notice that the passenger beside her was staring at her amusingly.
"You know… all of that drool coming out of your mouth will cost me a fortune to wipe it off someday," he said teasingly.
Mimi turned to him and blushed for a moment. "Sorry…"
"Now where do you live anyways?" he asked, starting on the engine.
"Its a few blocks away from the hospital. You can't miss it though. It's the only house who's been surrounded by trees." Mimi said.
"Okay then…"
Yamato first drove backwards and exited the parking lot under the Digimon HQ. The way was long and quiet, but Mimi tried to stay awake by staring outside the window. The pink-orange color that the sky was giving a few hours ago has now turned into dark-blue with a full moon above surrounded by endless stars. She yawned. Turning to Yamato, she decided to make up a conversation. But where to start? She glanced around; hoping to find an object to start with, but there was not a single one that took her interest.
"Searching for something?" Yamato asked, still focusing on the road.
"N-No… Not really… It's just that…"
"Hm?" Yamato was now looking at her confused.
"Nothing… Never mind…"
"Whatever." Yamato sighed annoyingly.
He looked back to the road again before he took another glance at the girl beside him. She was in deep thought.
"What are you thinking?" Yamato enquired.
"I was thinking when Mr. Kido had said Yamura to you… is it your codename?" Mimi suddenly asked him.
"Sort of…" Yamato replied coldly.
"Care to explain?"
Yamato looked at her like she was insane. "Why that question? Haven't you heard of someone's privacy before? And it's rude to ask you know." he told her.
Mimi looked down from disappointment. "Sorry… I just wanted to start a conversation with you…"
Yamato sighed and traced his fingers in his blond hair. 'This girl can be annoying some times' he thought. 'But then again…'
"I will explain it to you one day… Not now… I'm not in the mood for it…" Yamato said firmly, yet there was a tint of kindness in it.
Mimi nodded understandingly and decided not to ask anything anymore.
She saw the hospital building and she knew she was almost arriving. Yawning, she glanced at the passenger beside her. He was focusing on the road, but when she looked back outside, Yamato gave a small smile.
"Do you think I will survive this?" Mimi asked abruptly, still looking outside.
Yamato glanced at her with a confused expression. "Why are you asking this?"
"I don't know… I just sense it won't be a happy end… How would you feel when you know that there is a bunch of criminals after your heels just because you're disturbing their operation?" Mimi enquired, staring at him for an answer.
Yamato blinked a few times. "Scared maybe, but I would be more thrilled to know I have become their centre of attention." he replied with a grin on his face.
Mimi chuckled but sighed. "I knew you would say something like that…"
"And how do you feel about it?"
"Scared… alone, and..."
He couldn't hear the last part, but Yamato was certain what it was. He wanted to say something, anything to cheer her up, when he suddenly noticed the house she had spoken before with trees around. Stopping the car in front of it, he took the key from the keyhole and turned her way, but was shocked when the moonlight reflected something.
A tear.
Mimi felt the car stop and glanced to her side. Her house. Wanting to wipe her tear from her eye, she sensed a hand resting on her shoulder. Looking up, she saw a concerned look behind a pair of blue eyes. Yamato. Without knowing what he was doing next, he took his free hand and wiped her tear. Mimi saw him approaching closer and whispered something in her ear that made her blush for a second.
"Don't worry… I'll protect you," he whispered softly before retreating. With that, he stepped out of his Viper and Mimi was left in a daze.
Surprised by his actions and his words, she didn't know what to say back. Noticing that he opened the door for her, she stepped out as well. Mimi bowed him a thank you and walked up to her house, leaving him standing there. When she arrived at her front door, she turned around and saw that Yamato was still there, but this time near the oak tree that was placed a few meters from her house.
Mimi saw that he was looking at it intensely like he never saw one before. Deciding to break the silence she stepped up to him.
"What is it?" she asked.
Yamato didn't reply. Instead, he took a piece of the fallen leaf that was on the ground and stared at it carefully. Taking some in his hand to smell at it, Mimi watched him in puzzlement.
"Is anything wrong?" she asked with concern.
Yamato stood up and glanced back at her oak tree. It was just like any oak tree, Mimi thought; however this one was different for Yamato. The branches were large and the height was as big as the house itself. There was something that troubled him, but he was not quit sure if he was right. Ignoring the feeling, he walked away toward his Viper not before Mimi stopped him.
"What was wrong with the tree?" Mimi asked.
"Nothing." Yamato replied.
Mimi pouted, "What?" she exclaimed, not believing him. "First you hang around my tree like it was something special and then you say nothing?"
Yamato nodded.
"Ugh…good night." Mimi snorted and turned around with heavy steps towards her house. Unlocking it, she turned roughly taking her tong out before closing the door hard in front of him. Yamato only smirked, but it faded away when he glanced back at the oak tree.
There was one thing he knew for sure. This night wasn't over yet….
XxXxX
Mimi took off all of her clothes, leaving her totally naked. She was ready to step inside the large bathtub when she heard a noise in the living room. First she thought it might be, Domino, her Siamese cat, but hearing it again was making her nervous. Taking a towel, she covered her body.
Leaving the bathroom, she paced on the stairs and walked into the living room. Everything was shut tight along with the door that was made out of glass. Her wide-screened television was off, her cup of coffee was still on the table like a few moments ago, but still she felt a shiver coming down her spine.
"Domino, where are you?" Mimi called out her cat.
Out of the dark came a brown Siamese cat. Mimi opened her arms wide open and carried her in her arms, but right after that, a pair of black boots revealed from the moonlight. Looking up, she was ready to scream, but a dark gloved hand prevented her from doing so.
Letting go of her cat, who was already running away, Mimi struggled herself free from him. He had her pinned against the wall and that's when Mimi saw something horrible that only in nightmares could exists. His face was malformed and there was a large cut that scared the hell out of her.
"You know… I never thought you would be so beautiful…" he whispered, licking his lips seductively. "I could play a little game with you before doing my job…"
Mimi's eyes widened. She didn't like what he was saying. Totally panicked, she struggled harder to break free, but it was no use. His grip was too strong for her. Mimi did what came in her mind. Hitting him hard on his sacred place. A groan escaped from his mouth when Mimi broke herself free and ran towards the door, but was caught by her wrist before she had the chance to reach it.
"You bitch!" he cursed, slapping her hard on the face. "You will pay for it! I will make sure of that!" he yelled.
Mimi could only cry herself out when she hit the solid wall again. He was coming closer, still holding her wrist very firmly. He was now licking her neck.
"Getting feisty huh?" he smirked. "I think I like it better when we're on the ground!" he spat, throwing her on the floor.
Mimi saw him coming, although her eyes were blurry from all the tears she had shed. She wanted to escape, but he caught her ankle and dragged her back to the place. He took off his jacket and tossed it aside, not minding where it landed and before Mimi could retort, he was already on top of her.
"Please…don't…" Mimi pleaded. Tears were flowing non-stop down her cheeks, making it puffy and red.
But the man ignored her pleas and started savoring her neck.
"Is this how you treat a lady, Koushiro? My, my, I thought you were better than that." a voice said all of a sudden.
Koushiro stopped his actions and smirked. "Yamura. Tell me, how long have you been watching us?"
"Long enough." Yamato answered. "Now, get off her before you get a hole in your head." he ordered coldly.
Koushiro did as he was told and got off her with a grin. He still had the taste of her and he licked it playfully in front of Yamato. Mimi still lay on the floor, but was happy to have someone who was familiar to her. Yamato walked up to girl as he held a gun in his hand that followed Koushiro wherever he went.
"Hey, you okay." Yamato asked when he was next of her.
Mimi only nodded. He helped her get up and gave her his black jacket. Yamato took her by her chin to see her face, and though it was only the moon that gave light, he could see something blue against her soft cheek. A temper was rising inside of him. Swiftly he turned around and saw Koushiro smirking.
"What do you think if we solve this out now, huh?" Yamato challenged him when he handed Mimi the gun where she took it with shaking hands.
"It would my pleasure, Yamura…" Koushiro smiled falsely as he blew a long lock of red-brown hair out of his face.
Yamato grimaced, as his hands were fold into a fist. Glancing outside, he saw the moon hidden behind a big cloud.
"We start when the moon comes out from that cloud." Yamato told him.
Koushiro looked outside and nodded before smiling mischievously.
Yamato knew it and he was right too.
The night wasn't over yet…
