Chapter: 12: The Motorcyclists!
After I had my little flashback, I remembered that the police came a day later…I was basically missing, I couldn't just tell Chase (My black-haired, brown eyed Crush from America) that I was the missing girl from back in eighth grade.
"Um, no…I don't know what you're talking about….and your accent gives it away!" I said with a little wink, then running on impulse I tip-toed up and quickly kissed him on the cheek.
"Uh…" he said warily, as I ran off to find the park.
Phew, that felt heart - wrenchingly good. I thought as I collapsed beneath a tree.

OK so this weeks winner was….*drum roll*….J.d.y.!!! she guessed correctly,(the song was 'Goody Two Shoes' by Adam and the Ants) and the lyrics she choose for this chpt.'s music knowledge Is:
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me
And just forget the world?
Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden
That's bursting into life
OK, so I think I'm going give the second place winner a 'prize'(?) so I know it's not much, but hey, I can't give out candy over the internet! So the runner-up get's too get a shout-out about whatever you like! Wether it be about your stories or a really good book your read last week! I don't really care what it's about!
Now…thank god I came prepared! I thought too myself as I dug in my back pack and pulled out a plastic bag, then ran to the public restrooms.
Uh, this stinks! I thought now changing in one of the stalls, into a black tee with black Capri's.
After I had finished I went outside and sat criss-crossed on top of one of the picnic tables and pulled out the contents in my plastic bag, my switchblade, $50 (from Yusuke…Hey, I was going to give it back!), I emptied the bag into my cloth bag then threw it in the trash.
I wonder what time it is? I thought, now wishing I had a watch. "Hey, excuse me, lady?" I asked.
Then the brunette turned to me and said : "9:30."
"Arigato." I said then turning away I thought Yeah! I almost have the whole day to do what I want….with a limit of $50!! Yeah…..
So, let's see….I might be able to get a tattoo! I thought happily as I suddenly realized that mainly people in the Yakuza get tattoo's so it may be hard to get one….
***Later down a 'shady' street***
Let's see….tattoos, tattoos.. I thought to myself as I looked all around me, and into the black-tinted windows of little shops, and in almost every alley-way there were either people trading little bags of stuff, or someone was getting beat up… what a lovely side of Japan, they should put this on the tour guide!
I wonder why they don't! I thought sarcastically to myself.
Then I saw it : a guy in a shop getting a tattoo, I instantly ran into the shop….just to get creepy stare's and someone said "WTF?!" (but the actual words).
I was just to damned curios….I walked right over to where the guy was getting his tattoo done.
"Cool." I said as I looked down at the katana on his arm.
"What do you want?" The tattoo-er, guy asked stopping what he was doing and looking up.
"Well, jeez I want a tattoo!" I said crossing my arm's in front of me.
"I could give you a tattoo." One of the weirdo-s said.
"Yea, and I could put my fist in your face." I said backing up.
"OK, it'll be $49.95 and I could round it off to $50.00 and I'll get everyone out of the shop.
"Deal!" I said as he started to change the needle, and got up.
"Alright, everyone who doesn't get out of this shop on the next 5 seconds, is gonna get hit!" he said as he pulled a revolver out of the top drawer.
"Yaa!" and everyone was flooding to the doors.
"OK, now, what do you want?" he asked sitting on one of the 2 chairs.
"Well, I would like a fairy doing a pirouette with a rose around her and flower petals, oh and have it black-in-white with the flowers blue, please?" I asked him sitting in the chair with my back to him.
"Yea, but ain't you young for this?" he asked as I swiveled around to look at him.
"No." I answered simply then added "Do it on the small of my back." I said as I lifted up my shirt a little.
"Got it." he said.
"Yee." I said as he stabbed into me with the ink-filled syringe.
"Better get used to it." He said calmly.
Him and his every-day words…! I thought as I fought back the increasing pain.
"Wow, you're handling the pain a lot better than most 40yr. Olds!" he said pausing a little bit…just to light up….
You son of a bitch. I thought as he got back to work.
"Hey, do you know how long after this is over it will still hurt?" (Authors note: I've never really gotten a tattoo *but I hope to!!*, so, me being that way, I have no frickin' clue how much something like that costs, or how long it takes for the pain to go away…. So just play along with me, OK? Thank-you!, oh and if you do happen too know please contact me ^^)
"Oh, about 2 weeks…" he said calculating it in his head.
"OK." I said, as he speared another ink-filled needle into me.
I thought in my head for awhile and decided, that if I stayed demon for a couple days then that would lessen the number to 5 days!
I smiled as I looked out the window, just as I did that my smile faded into an ice-cold death-glare. Because outside the window were the perverts the guy had kicked out earlier!
Then I did the only logical thing, I flipped them all off!
"Those hounds still there?"
"All wide-eyed." I answered.
"Yeah, those creeps are here every day…even though they know no one like you are ever gonna come around….until now." he said.
"Thanks…." I said sarcastically, tilting my head.
"No, prob." he added.
***There by followed a long awkward silence***
"OK, it's all done!" he said getting off the stool and putting the needle tip in the garbage.
"Thanks!" I said happily as I jumped off the chair and slapped all $50.00 on his desk.
"Yeah, yeah.." He said as I started walking back to the store…..but not before I swiped a $10.00 off the desk, then I started skipping towards the front door.
Haha and the guy doesn't even know it! I snickered to myself as I left the store.
Which turned out to be a horrible idea… it was just as I was skipping out of the shop and into the store that I realized I jumped into a snake pit.
"Heh heh heh…" I could hear the demented noises of men driving themselves mad…
Oh, shit. I bluntly thought as I remembered what my mom told me..:
Now, remember you can't use your body unless you know you're stronger than them!
"Goddangit!!" I angrily whispered to myself as I remembered all the perverts….and that I didn't have my necklace.
Quickly before the circle they were trying to knit around me closed I ran out of it as quickly, trying to hide the fear pounding at my door…though I'm sure some of it made it's way to my face I was pretty confident that I kept it under control…
"Don't show fear! *Huff, huff*" I started breathing hard as I ran down the long street.
Then some of them started catching up to me! So I made a sharp turn as one of them swiped my hair.
"Hey!- come back here, girly!" one of them said in a disgusting voice.
"*Huff, hu-ff, hu-ff….*" My breath started getting more ragged by the second, I took one glance behind me to find that only a couple out of the 9 that started chasing me had fallen back.
Just…great!! I thought. Then I heard it…the sound of a motorcycle!
No, not just one motorcycle, but a bunch!! I thought happily as I blacked on why I was running for a split second….
Gotta stay focused!…gotta find a way to escape! I thought looking around me…
Druggies, beaters, garbage cans… I thought to my dismay that there was no hope of screaming for someone on the other side of Tokyo!, most unlikely anyone would help me out here…
Goshdangit!…*silence*…..Wait..what if I run out into the street while the motorcycles are coming! I thought as I was nearing the end of the alley, trying to block out the cat-calls from behind me.. Yeah!, and they probably won't stop!…so the perv.'s will be on the opposite side of the road!! I put a smile on my face, as I started to pour on the speed, but like that did any significant good..-.-
With me in the lead, we all went running across the street, I looked to the right and there they were!: the motorcyclists, all heading down the road at speeds over 40 M.P.H.!
"What the hell?!" I heard some of the perv.'s say, I chanced a glance behind me as I saw most of the perv.'s staying on the opposite side of the road.
But there was still just one following me…God, why did this road have to be so wide?! I thought worriedly as I was about to reach the other side of the road, with the motorcyclists racing towards us.
"Ha!" and with a crazed laugh something caught me around my ankle which sent me sprawling on the ground! Now I didn't care, fear was pounding through my veins. The fear of getting run-over, was nowhere close to the fear I felt as I was flipped over and got a glimpse of the motorcycle's one last time before I saw the hungry eye's of the perv. Who had threw himself on top of me in the middle of the frickin' road!!
"Vroom,vrooooom..!" the motorcycle's were getting closer know…a little too close….
"Aaagh--!!" I screamed, as the bastard kissed me!
Sh**, Sh**, Sh**!!!! My mind was racing those two words, at this point I was hoping that one of the motorcycle's would hit us both so that he would stop hurting me!!!!!!
All of a sudden I started crying…All I wanted to do was see my father one more time… know what I actually am!…the motorcycle's getting closer, but they didn't seem to be slowing down.
"Thunk!--shwiff!!" It all happened so fast!, but here's what I saw happen…:
After I started crying, the motorcyclists never wavered under a mile, but once they reached me 'n' him, the first two cyclists moved like lightening, and one knocked the guy in the side of his body, then as he rolled off me the other guy grabbed my arm and threw me over the bike and I landed with a 'thunk' behind him.
"Hang on!" he ordered behind his visor, as I quickly realized that, that was the best option! I was just too shook up to enjoy my ride, as we drove down another street and parked in front of a little pawn shop.
"Th-thank-y-you!" I sputtered as I almost fell off the bike, which thankfully he caught my arm before I crashed into the biker next to him.
"What were you doing out there anyway? You know that's dangerous territory!.. don't you….?" He asked me as I looked down at the ground quietly crying.
He started to take off his visor as I raised my eye's to look at him.
Well, there you have it! Chpt. 12! OK, I know I left you guys on a hanger, and it did take a while to post this but….well, I don't know! And for those of you who read 'Lark That Deviant Little Thief' I updated today! ^-~
