The Breed

Episode 3- The Hunt (2)

Ken only glanced at her. She was definitely not a detective anymore. She was now a criminal. But sometimes the difference between a detective and criminal was just a badge. He was not sure why this moment made him so happy. This girl would be interesting.

"You are one of us now, Detective." She turned towards abruptly. There were still traces of blood on her face. She turned back to the body.

"Don't just fucking stand there."

"Uta-san." Touka called. 'Damnitt,' he thought. She would yell at him if she figured out he was sleeping in here. He liked sleeping in the shop it was comfortable being surrounded by all of his paintings. His brother Amon didn't really want them in the family home since they scared him. Uta did everything from tattoos to masks.

He was not fully woken up yet but he was in a good enough mood to humor his favorite girl.

"Hai." He answered. Touka placed her hands on her hips while she tapped her foot. She looked angry but he could see the happy glint in her dark grey eyes. She ran up to him and hugged him.

"I need you to do me a favor." She spoke into his chest, tickling him with her warm breath. He pushed her back slightly wondering what the hell she was doing. She was acting all sweet with him, Uta could feel the migraine coming any minute now.

"I'm not going to kiss Ken." He deadpanned. Touka pinched his nipple making him yelp. He back up until he almost tripped over a stool near his work desk.

"Not that, dumbass. I need you to pretend to be my boyfriend." She said with malice in her voice. Her mood quickly brightened. The unnaturally cheerful façade unnerved Uta slightly but she did look cute while doing it.

"Can't you just confess to Yuuichi-chan you damn wimp?" He said. Touka loved how Uta would sound so kind when he threw insults at people. She sat down on one of the tattoo chairs. It reminded her of a weird dentist chair. Images of Uta dressed in lab coat made her uneasy. Who would trust a dentist with tattoos?

"I have to wait until I'm of age to confess to him." She said haughtily. Uta closed his eyes before he rushed Touka. Within seconds she was pinned beneath him.

"Touka-chan, you're too-"

"Uta what the fuck are you doing?" Touka and Uta turned their attention to Ken. Hide was beside him. Immediately Uta's attention was drawn toward the bag of food Hide held. He ignored Ken completely. Releasing himself from Touka ,his hand went for the food. Ken grabbed his wrist forcing the eccentric young man to look at him.

"I'll tell your mother you tried to do hentai stuff to an underage girl." Ken said lowering his voice. He smiled at the comical look on Uta's face. He looked as if he was frozen in time. His euphoria at the thought of eating was now ramen gone.

"Touka-chan." Hide said to the young girl. She smirked before punching his shoulder, Hide was sure something cracked. He kept a smile on his face. A was a rule of his to never show the ladies his 'weak' side.

"What were you two doing?" Ken asked. Touka looked confused. "Hmm. Maybe he was trying to do hentai stuff." Uta was shocked.

"Touka-cha-" Uta tried to interrupt but was unheard.

"What a perv." Ken said. He placed the food down at a nearby table. Uta stood speechless watching as e everyone pulled up chairs to the table. Ken and Hide started to pass out the delicious ramen, eggrolls and drinks.

"I didn't do hen-" Uta was once again unheard.

"Touka-chan how's school?" Ken asked. Hide slurped noodles. Uta was still being ignored. He sighed before moving sluggishly to the table to get his portion. Ken glanced at Uta.

"I heard there was raid of Tsukiyama so you and I are going there later tonight." Uta did not really feel like going to see Tsukiyama. Uta was sure the man was gay and he be damned but he was a bit scared of being hit on by a man. But he nodded. Tsukiyama was a thorn in Ken's side, one that he would gladly get rid of.

Tsukiyama was sure that asking the cute detective to dine with him would be shot down. But as soon as he said he would pay she joined him. She seemed to be quite the odd little thing. She ignored him for the most part. She didn't necessarily read a lot of literature, but she enjoyed historical literature and facts.

She was quite childish in his opinion. But she seemed to have another motive for meeting with him. He wasn't sure what it was. Maybe she was the type to 'fuck' with people. If that was the case he would just have to annoy her more.

She ate ungracefully, like a foreigner.

"Shuu-san, how have you been? I hope Mado didn't scare you. He's scary isn't he? That fucker could easily get the part in a horror movie. Like Jason?" Bingo. She was here to ask him about Yamori.

"Is that so?" He asked waiting for her to comment about Yamori.

She wiped her mouth with a napkin. She smiled. Shuu heard something click. 'Great the bitch had a gun. How annoying.' Sure enough she had one.

"This is a bit hostile." He said calmly. She shrugged.

"Not really, you're creepy and too fucking flashy." She answered. He noticed something. He smile, the gun did not have any bullets. Cops were always careful in aiming, he had stalked and killed an officer.

"I think I like you even more." She cocked her head to the side before cracking a smile.

"Don't joke about your life. Didn't your mother ever tell you not to gamble?"

"Don't be foolish. You are being threatened as well. Just ask me about Yamori." She started to laugh but sat down. She must have been one hell of an actress. He had researched her. She was a model academy student from some less than desirable circumstances.

Mado did not like that she had been in the restaurant with this man. The owner of the restaurant had been paid a hefty sum by Tsukimiya to not allow anyone in. But as soon as the owner saw Mado he let him in the security room.

"There have been robberies around here." The young man said. His name was Amon Koutaro, he had the look of a stoic man but upon further inspection he seemed very polite. Mado watched as his partner pulled a gun on Tsukiyama. He was on edge when this happened but as luck would have it, he guessed that she just wanted to shake Tsukiyama up. Rather it worked or not would be an entirely different story.

"Yamori and I are not really that close." He said. Mado could tell he was telling the truth or at least by all of his body movements he was.

"Both of you should be." His partner commented. She was eating her food sloppily. And she looked bored. Her mannerisms were something she'd never get used to.

"Ah, excuse me sir." Amon said holding his ringing phone. Mado nodded, focusing more on the conversation.

Amon walked out of the security room and into the hallway which was above the dining area of the resteraunt. The lights were dimmed, making the white walls look slightly darker.

"Uta?" Amon asked.

"Wrong. It's me. I had my cousin tap into the security feed."

"Ken-san." He heard a crunch in the background.

"Are you looking for Tsukiyama?"

"Yep, I'll be there soon. He's not here, so you go home Uta."

"The police are here." Amon protested. He heard Ken chuckle and Uta saying goodbye.

"I know, but I want to watch the interrogation."

"There is a detective in the security room."

"Hahh, I guess he'll have to go. Don't worry about it, it'll be fine. Don't tell him anyone is coming."

"What do you have in mind? You can beat the shit out of anybody as long as it's not in my restaurant. Why do you have Uta's phone?"

"It was close by," was Ken's answer. Amon did not know how to respond to his statement. It was ridiculous.

Amon sighed, rubbing his temples. He was not too sure of how Ken would deal with a detective. He was too unstable at times. It's almost as if he had a switch in his head that turned him from lazy, aloof, caring Ken to the cold-hearted murder Ken. He reentered the room to see his detective guest standing up.

"It's over. Thank you Koutaro-san." Amon nodded shaking hands with the man. He looked tired.

On the monitor he could see that both Tsukiyama and the female were gone.

"Goddamnit. I knew I should have just told that bastard to get the hell out of here."

Mado stared at his partner. She had not said a word. Most likely she was trying to think of why Yamori was uncatchable. He commited his crimes brazenly.

"He was handsome, in that serial killer kind of way, Shuu-san I mean." Mado stared.

"Oh dear God.." He sighed. He should have known better. These genius types were always too fucking weird for him.

"But, this guy Yamori is probably feeling like he won. We didn't catch him and we have bodies of people who are not connected to him but each other. But then again maybe it is a different criminal we're talking about it."

"It's a possibility." Mado agreed. The Sangiin, the missing runaways, and the junkie they were all in each other's lives. The Sangiin was a customer of the runaways, and the junkie was also a dealer who supplied the girls their drugs. But according to some people, this territory belonged to Ken Kenaki. In the past years Yamori has only killed the wealthy and working class. He and his gang the Aogori Tree killed the wealthy and middle-class. The junkie and the runaways made no sense. Maybe he killed the senator but Kenaki killed the girls and the junkie.

But Ken Kenaki didn't have a face.

Rin looked up at the feeling of another presence. There was strong boy from before. He was alone and wearing classes. He seemed docile. He caught her staring at him and blushed.

"Good evening, where are going this late, son?" Mado questioned. The boy was fiddling with his fucking fingers.

"Ah, I-I have to see a f-friend o-of mine. Gomen." He bowed deeply before running away. Rin was confused. Did that guy back at the restaurant have a twin?

Touka had decided to sleep over at Ken's house. She reasoned with herself that she needed to do this for Hinami, since her mother was working at the hospital. Touka knew that Ken and Ryouko had a sexual relationship and that he helped her with finances. She was glad that Ryouko decided to go get a nursing degree . But she wondered if Hinami was okay with her mother working so much? She was not there for Yuuichi. She was not there for Yuuichi.

She was happy that she had caught of glance of his slender body shirtless She was even happier when his face turned red and he ran away from her. He had yet to come out of his room.

She brushed her teeth, spitting out the toothpaste in the sink she rinsed her mouth with water. She begin to check out her figure and face. 'I'm kind of cute.' She thought. Walking back into the living room where Hinami was she was surprised the see that the girl was waiting on her. She was hoping she was asleep so she could go (leer at) check on Yuuichi.

"Sis, let's watch a horror movie." This was something Touka was afraid of.

"Ah, s-sure." She did pick some bad habits up from Ken after all.

Ken looked behind him watching the female detective's hips sway. She was not as thin as Ryouko, not as Rize either. But she recognize him which was bad. Still she seemed to believe his disguise. He hadn't played like this in a while but it was all in vain since the detectives were leaving.

He was having fun though, just like every other day.
