Kiko was meditating for the second time today. She was planning to do it for a maximum of a hour.
It was about six at night. Kiko was interrupted again, but this time by her stomach growling.
Kiko sighed and opened her eyes. It was time for dinner, but she didn't want to go out nor want to eat in the kitchen.
"Why haven't I ever bought a mini fridge in here?" She asked herself.
She could just wait in the room for a couple of hours. The guys should be out of there after dinner. But she was too hungry to wait. She decided its better to be full and get some dirty looks than stay hungry and not get some dirty looks.
She got up and left her room. She walked in the corridor and into the kitchen there was nobody there.
'They probably went out to eat.' Kiko thought. "So, I was about to starve myself when nobody was here. I'm glad I decided to leave my room."
Kiko walked over to the fridge to and got some apples, strawberries, blue berries, bananas, and oranges. She was planning to make a fruit salad. She got a bowl, board, and knife.
She chopped up the fruit and put it in the bowl. She went back in the fridge to get some syrup and put it on her salad. Lastly she got a fork and was about to dig in at the table until the door opened.
"Great." Kiko said to herself.
The person that had walked through the door was Tech.
"Hey Kiko." He said not stopping.
Kiko just looked at him knowing something went wrong. Kiko looked at her food.
"Eh, he can wait." She said before eating her salad.

Four more weeks later and Kiko had about a month more of her torture. When she started getting bored in her room she went a head to see what was Tech doing. When she walked in Tech was building something. She walked up to him.
"Whatcha building?" She asked.
"It's the Time Celerity (bad name)." Tech said with some pride. "Try to guess what it do."
Kiko rolled her eyes. "Celerity means swiftness of movement. So let me guess," Kiko said hardly thinking hard. "It's suppose to speed up time in the days."
"Your right." He said not smiling.
"And why exactly didn't you build this is the beginning? More importantly, why didn't you ask me to help?" Kiko wondering.
"Well first, this just came up in my head four weeks ago." Tech explained. "And I didn't tell you because... well, this was more of a personal project."
Kiko frowned at him. She meditated a lot and was trained as a ninja by her dad, but even with that stuff she still had a pretty nasty temper. She was the 'hot-head' in her old team.
"Don't look at me like that." Tech said, more of a nervous tone.
Kiko just shook her head and left him controlling her anger. When she left out the lab her phone started to ring.
"Hello?" She said in her usual monotone. She was walking to her room.

"Hey Kiko, how ya doing?" Ming asked.
"Terrible." Kiko said back. "Are you calling to tell me your coming back?"
"Well no." Ming responded.
"What do you mean no?" Kiko asked both confused and angry.
"Well during my skiing trip I had broke my leg trying to do a flip in the air. Skiing is harder than I thought." She answered.
"Look Ming I'm going to be busy for the next three weeks," Kiko actually lied, but that could happen since she is a superhero and all. "Can you get somebody else to take charge of the dojo?"
"Why do think your in charge?" Ming asked, "Your pretty much the only expert martial artist that's over 20 I know. Oh I gotta go. Talk to you later." Ming hung up the phone.
Kiko just stood there, her ear beside the phone.
"Fuck," She said out loud. "I wish I never joined that job."
It's not like she didn't like it, but that class was just pathetic. No matter how much practice she did with them or showed them the moves over they still couldn't get it right. And don't get her wrong; she had patients but when they didn't listen she started getting more stress about it. And that's the last thing she needed, more stress.
She started to think and left out her room again. She walked back into the lab seeing Tech still working on 'his' ivention.
"Alright, speed up time and do it now." She said in a impatient tone.
"I can't until I'm finish." He said. "Come back in ten."
"Okay." She said leaving back out.
(Ten minutes later)
"Ya finished now?" Kiko asked.
"Not yet." Tech answered.
"Fuck it, how much of it you have to do now?" Kiko was getting more impatient by the second.
"Ya know you sound like Duck right now." He said before facing her. He looked at her to see a annoyed face with her bare teeth showing, growling. "You wouldn't harm your cousin, would you?"
"It all depends on my patients. And I'm no longer patient." She grunted.
"I'm almost done just give me... at least a three hours, okay." Tech said.
Kiko started to do a loud growl before leaving out the lab. When she left Tech sighed in relief.
"That was close," He whispered to himself. "Better hurry up."

Kiko was in her room listening to her music. It was about nine at night. She was listening to Three Days Grace's song, World so Cold. She was listening to the chorus:
Living in a world so cooold, wasted a awaaay.
Living in a shell with no soooul, since you gone awaaay.
Living a world so cooold, I'm counting the daaays.
Since you gone awaaay you gone awaaay from me.
She was getting a bit tired and decided it was time to sleep. She turned her iPod off and got in her bed. When she laid down she started thinking. She was tired of her life. She didn't want to go through this pain and stress anymore. Before she could think more of this she got up and left out her room. She walked into the kitchen avoiding the team in the living room. Without them noticing she got a knife out the cutlery drawer and went back to her room.
When she made it back to her room she went to her desk and got a piece of paper and a pen.
What was Kiko thinking? This will not end well.
