"Reaper wake up." I had opened my eyes to Brendan pinching my cheek gently.

"I don't want to." I said playfully as I hit him.

"Fine I'll just tell Blue that." He said raising himself up to the side of the bed.

"Ok, ok I'm up you asshole." I had hugged him and he had turned to kiss me. "I'm going to go take a shower." I had ran to the bathroom and jumped into the shower.

'I want to know if you want leave this dump because your still the same little kid I found at the river that's to scared to face his own problems.' I had sighed at what Brendan had said.

Why was I born into this life I didn't ask for this. If we try to escape we'll be hunted like deer. If we don't leave I could just keep wishing on stars that will fade away. I need to make the right decision. I had turned off the shower and headed towards Brendan who was sitting at the table cleaning his guns.

"Can we talk?" I had asked him, he looked at me as I was speaking another language.

"Wow do you usually walk around naked like that around here." My eyes had widen to see Amethyst looking at me.

"What are you doing here!" I grabbed the gun from the table and aimed it at him.

"Crimson if your going to bare your fangs you better bite down hard." Brendan just sat patiently waiting for me to give him the gun. I gave him the gun and glared at Amethyst."Crimson put your clothes on."

"Crimson put them on …slowly." Amethyst licked his lips crookedly at me.

"How about I rip your dick off …slowly." I winked at him.

"I bet you would like touching my dick wouldn't you, you fucking slut-." A bullet went right pass him.

"What did I say about calling him a slut." Brendan had said while sitting the gun back down.

"You still didn't answer my question, why are you here?" I glared at him, while putting on my cloths.

"Is this how you treat all your guests?"

"Answer the damn question Amethyst?" Brendan had told him.

"I'm here because I wanted you to know that I will be covering you from a distance when you approach the target." Amethyst had explained.

"Under who's orders." Please don't say Blue.

"Blue' s and we both know there's no getting around her. And by the way I tried to talk her out of it because I don't babysit."

"Good because I can take care of myself you as-."

"Crimson, shut up." Brendan had commanded me.

"What!?"

"I said shut up, just because you killed a guy doesn't mean your invulnerable and like it or not Amethyst is more than capable of protecting you." I remained silent.

"Damn Ruby you always make him feel like stupid bitch." Amethyst had whistled.

"Crimson-"

"Don't. I'm going for a walk I'll see you when I get to the park." I grabbed my scarf and headed out.

As I walked out of the building I could see the sky begin to darken and small flakes of snow begin to fall.

'I want to know if you want leave this dump because your still the same little kid I found at the river that's to scared to face his own problems.' No I'm not the same kid he met at the river. I felt a tear slide down my face

'I said shut up, just because you killed a guy doesn't mean your invulnerable.' My pace began to speed up until I was running with tears in my eyes. I bumped into someone.

"I'm sorry." I had told the stranger.

"It's okay don't worry about it." she offered her hand to me and I took it. I had looked to the stranger I noticed that she had long blonde hair and grey eyes and a pleasant voice.

"May I ask you a question?" she asked me.

"Sure."

"Why are you out here don't you know that the city past a curfew?" She asked.

"I do it's just that-" I felt her put her hand on my heart.

"Hmm your heart it seems overwhelmed, your eyes they're a faded pink, your soul seems shattered too."

"Wow am I that readable that a stranger can see that." Another tear fell from my face but was quickly wiped away by her.

"Hey don't cry that's not going to help that heavy heart of yours now is it." I shook my head no."My name is Cynthia by the way." she smiled warmly at me.

"Reaper."

"Reaper? I heard that name somewhere before?" She put her finger to her lip."Anyway you look sad why is that?"

"My boyfriend if he is even that is always right about me." I had explained to her.

"Right about what exactly?"

"That I'm a child that needs protection from the big bad wolf known as this city." As the sun went down, the light of the streets had lit themselves up.

"Well maybe he's trying to protect you the best way he knows how." Cynthia had said with a hint of saddness.

"Cynthia you seem lonely out here by yourself." She had sighed at me.

"Well my friend is out here and he thinks he can stop the gangs out here, I'm sure you heard of him the news gave him the name 'The vigilante'." I was astonished she knows the vigilante.

"Come in Chief Shirona come in." Cynthia had pulled out a radio and began to speak into it.

"Chief Shirona what's the situation?"

"The Mayor is at the station and demands your presents at this moment." The police officer had said.

"Okay Chief Shirona out." She put the radio back into her jacket.

"So your the Chief of police?" I asked her.

"Yup I actually just got the promotion." She had smiled."Well I have to go here's my card incase you get your self in trouble." She handed me a card with here job's number on it. She had walked off waving me goodbye.

Damn it not only is she the Chief of police but she's also friend of the vigilante as well. This can't end well especially with me having to lure him in to his death. I pulled out my phone and called Brendan.

"Crimson you better get down here now." His voice was solemn.

"Ruby tell Blue to cancel the mission unless she wants the Chief of police on our trail." I had told him.

"Crimson get your ass down here now." I heard Blue' s voice at phone now she sounded more than pissed .

"Blue list-" She had hung up before I got the chance to explain anything to her.

God damn it why is it always me.

So guys what do you think of the chapter.
