Infiltrating the school was effortless for Saiyo. She gracefully slipped through a window she had unlocked with a pin and dropped to the floor of the main office. Once she got into the student database, she found the entry wait list and replaced the number one name with the one Izaya had given her. "Ryuugamine Mikado..." she whispered as she typed it in. I guess that's it, she thought to herself. It was easy enough, though she wondered how a freshman could run an online gang in Tokyo from a suburb. Then again, Kida was the leader of the yellow scarves, and that was nothing to scoff at. she remembered the day he hired Saiyo and her sister. Karia immediately had issues from taking orders from someone so much younger than herself. Kida is even a few years younger than Saiyo.

'One more favor, lure out my short fused old friend for me.' a text she had just received from Izaya. "Shizuo..?" Saiyo sighed, deciding she should get out of the school. As she walked to the bar Shizuo works at, she couldn't help but laugh. Gang violence was so common these days that no one even questioned the large quantity of blood on her clothing. As soon as she swung the door to the seedy bar open, Shizuo's eyes darted to her. He left from behind the counter and came outside. "You're just walking around with all this blood on you? You're gonna get challenged if you aren't careful."

"That's got nothing to do with why I'm here, but thanks for the concern."

"What are you doing here, then?" He lit another cigarette as he eyed her.

"Well...look, don't get mad or anything, but Izaya wanted me to lure you out."

"Than-" CLANG

A stop sign was bashed over Shizuo's head, however he did not falter. He just took a deep inhale from his recently lit cigarette and closed his eyes. "How do you like your own weapon being used against you, hm?" Izaya chuckled sadistically. "I...za...ya...DAMN YOU!" Shizuo spun around and snatched the stop sign from him, swiping first at his feet, then at his neck. "BASTARD!" He roared as Izaya backflipped out of the stop sign's reach. "I haven't seen one of these in too long," Saiyo snickered, sitting on a rail to watch the events unfold.

After a block or so of Ikebukuro was wrecked by mostly Shizuo, Izaya decided it was his cue to disappear into the shadows. "I remember the first time I ever saw the two of you fight, I was horrified."

"You and Karia were with Celty then."

"She was beating up some thugs when the two of us walked by her. That was right after meeting Izaya, he wanted to hire us for our very first job. Then, Celty noticed us. When the three of us began talking after a year of not seeing her, you and Izaya started all the commotion just around the corner. Your display of strength was the most impressive thing I had ever seen other than Celty."

"Things were different then."

"What is that supposed to mean?"

"You and Karia hadn't killed anyone. These stupid gang wars were non existent and now you're playing right into them."

"If you want to know the truth, I don't think the Blue Squares or Yellow Scarves are going to be around much longer after what Izaya did what I suspect he did."

"What did that bastard do now?"

"So, Kida has that Rin girl you know? Well the Blue Squares apparently wanted to get some leverage and went to Izaya. He practically handed her over on a silver platter. She's in the hospital right now and it seemed to me like she was in a coma. Could be medically induced depending on how much pain she was in."

"They're all just kids...even you and Karia are too young for this."

"It doesn't matter how old any of us are. If you're in a gang, you're in."

"You're not in a gang, so get the hell out of all this before you get killed."

"I couldn't get out now, too many people would still come knocking on our door, you know that. Besides, nee-san and I are capable of protecting ourselves."

"You should have more protection, dammit! You both should."

"Don't get angry, Shizuo, please? If you think I should be protected, why don't you protect me yourself?"

"Hmph."

Saiyo snorted and shook her head. Like he would ever actually care enough to protect me all the time...

"Maybe I will."

"Maybe you'll what?"

"Protect you. A-and Karia." He cleared his throat. "Shizuo are you offering to devote your time to protecting me?"

"There's gotta be a lot of targets on your back, so yeah, don't get all sappy."

"I won't get sappy, but I will thank you," She leapt off the rail and forced a hug. The top of Saiyo's head hardly reached his collar bone.

Shizuo took another puff from his cigarette and patted the top of her head. She pulled away when her phone rang. It was Karia, so she answered it right away. "Nee-san?"

"Where are you?"

"I'm with Shizuo, he's decided to protect me-um, us."

"Uh...o-okay? Should I get dinner for him too then?"

Saiyo looked up at Shizuo for an answer, but he shrugged. "Yeah, get him something."

Shizuo followed her home in silence. They rounded a corner into an alley where a dark figure was taking out some thug trash. "Celty?!" Saiyo beamed, skipping excitedly over to her. After she was done, Celty pulled out her phone and began clicking away. 'Hello, Saiyo. Why are you and Shizuo walking around at this time?'

"He just left a street brawl with Izaya and wanted to make sure I was safe walking home."

'I heard what happened to that girl, what all do you know?'

"Only what I picked up from a little eavesdropping. Izaya practically gave her to the blue squares and they did some damage from what I could tell. I don't know what'll happen now. Either Kida retires or the war will get even worse."

Celty crossed her arms and turned away from Saiyo for a moment. "I should probably get home though, and I'm sure you have to do something with these guys. So, I'll see you around, tell Shinra hello for me," Saiyo smiled and waved as her and Shizuo left the alley. I'd better leave them here, I need to see what Izaya is planning now. This could be troublesome, Celty thought as she leapt gracefully onto her black bike and sped off with a low hum of her engine blazing through Ikebukuro.

"Its about time you guys are back, I got some sushi since its close," Karia told them upon their arrival. Saiyo heard simon endorsing their sushi from below them and chuckled. "Yeah, its close all right."

"So, Shizuo, thanks for looking after Saiyo while she walks home. You can eat something, but I think we'll be just fine on our own."

"A lot of shit is gonna go down after this, I don't want you guys getting mixed up in it."

"We won't be. Since we don't have permanent ties to anyone, we're safe."

"I wouldn't be so sure..." Shizuo reached for his lighter. "You're not smoking in our house!" Karia insisted. He sighed and turned towards the door, "I'll catch you later, Saiyo. Don't be stupid and get killed or something."

"Oh. Okay, well bye. Thanks..."

Shizuo stopped at the bottom of the stairs leading from their front door. He clenched his fists, looking for something to hit or throw. The dumpster near him was soon careening into the street, frightening pedestrians who weren't aware of his monstrous strength. "Dammit!" He cursed at nothing and no one in particular.

The sisters were both awakened early the next morning by a phone ringing. It was Saiyo's cell. The caller ID displayed the last person she wanted to talk to: Izaya Orihara. "What do you want?"

"Meet me at my office so we can chat,"

"Is it an emergency?"

"Hm, it could be."

"Oh fine."

Karia glared at her phone, bangs falling in her eyes from her extreme bedhead. "What does whoever that bastard was want?!"

"Izaya needs us to go to his office."

A petite, meek woman let them inside. "Since when do you have a receptionist?"

"She's fun to play with."

"I wouldn't have expected any other answer," Karia huffed.

"So what is this about?" Saiyo asked as the two sat at his desk. Izaya held up a finger, "wait."

Five agonizing minutes later, someone else knocked at the door. The secretary rushed to the door as Izaya held up a whip. Saiyo and Karia shook their heads at Izaya's torturous attitude. "Come in," he invited with a sadistic smile. The man who entered was wearing an excess of blue, which automatically made the sisters nervous. After the job with the yellow squares, they had hoped to be out of this gang war. "My friend here is the leader of the Blue Squares."

"Oh, hello," Karia said cautiously. "You did some pretty heavy damage to my guys, Masamune is for sure gonna live with that for the rest of his life. After we took the girl, Kida is gonna be pretty steamed and I want some insurance that I'm not gonna get killed," he explained. "We were looking to get out of the crossfire when hell breaks out, so-"

"I'll pay you no less than a small fortune."

"How small a fortune are we talking?"

"2 mill."

"Mill as in...two million yen?"

"I'm tryin' to put a price on my life here,"

"Nee-san..." Saiyo looked intently at her sister. Their money problems would be nonexistent, they could move to a nice place further in the city. "We just have to protect you, correct? No gang fights unless they come for you?"

"It'll be easy."

"I guess we'll do it then," Saiyo and Karia shook his hand, then turned back to Izaya. "Is this the only reason you wanted to talk to us?"

"I thought I'd help with the business transaction. You'll get the money upfront, correct?" Izaya looked to the gang leader. He waved in another man holding a suitcase. "Kyohei, on the desk."

He had a solemn face with a blue hat hiding most of his hair. As soon as he did what he was told, Kyohei left the room without a word. Izaya opened the case and, as they assumed, it contained an immense amount of money. "Wow..." They both said in unison. "We should get going."

The sisters stood, Saiyo waved goodbye to Izaya as they followed the gang leader out. "My name is Streak."

"Streak? Because of speed, or skill or what?" Karia asked. "I ran naked through a baseball game once. Earned my title as Streak."

"Uh huh...well, I'm Karia, this is Saiyo."

"Hey kid, they took the deal. What do you wanna do?"

"That's harsh, but if that's the case, I've already done what I gotta do."

Izaya hung up the phone and leaned back in his chair. "This should be fun, hm?" He asked the receptionist. "You're evil." She whispered.

The two sat awkwardly in the Blue Squares base, looking around at the members they had fought and injured. Nohime was particularly feisty with her sharp glares towards Saiyo. Masamune, however, was awfully friendly with Karia. A pair named Erika and Walker had tried being social with Saiyo as well. "You guys are pretty badass," Walker complimented. "Yeah, Nohime will probably hate you for the rest of eternity. She holds grudges."

"I didn't think I'd ever be working with you guys..." Saiyo laughed awkwardly.

"Listen up!" Streak shouted to his followers. "We got the extra security set up so I don't want any holes for that brat to crawl through, got it?!"

Izaya roamed the streets as the sun began setting, looking for a bear to poke. Luckily Shizuo crossed his path. He found the perfect opportunity to lite a fire in him and threw a pebble at his head. Shizuo turned to him and growled, throwing his cigarette aside and preparing to charge. He lifted a conveniently placed vending machine. "IZAYA!"

"Can't we ever have a nice conversation? There's so much juicy news to share!"

"Shut up so I can kill you!"

"You don't even want to hear what I have to say about some little red heads who are getting into a sticky situation?"

"What about Saiyo?!"

"Just Saiyo that you're worried about, hm? Well, you've made my decision for me then, HAHA!" Izaya belted out his deranged laughter before dodging the machine and racing off.

"You hear something?" Yukimura asked. "Nah," Sasuke shook his head and leaned back on the barrel he was sitting against. "I dunno, maybe we should check."

"If you want to, go ahead."

Yukimura peered around the area, and thought there was nothing there until he was hit from behind. Sasuke heard him croak, and leapt up. A flash of yellow warned him, so instead of warning the others, he ran to check on Yukimura leaving an opening for the enemy.

Magoichi and Keiji discretely maneuvered through the base. No one saw it coming, except Izaya, who sat on the roof of the neighboring building to watch his masterpiece unfold. "Okay, we're close enough let's look at the target." Magoichi pulled out the envelope and slid the picture into her hand. "Are you kidding?" she gasped. "We have no choice," She clenched the picture and put it back in her pocket.

They looked at the map of the base and snuck behind the barrier near the leader's 'throne'. Saiyo and Karia were on either side of it, not thinking there was anything to worry about. Suddenly, a shot from Magoichi's gun sent the base into alert and Karia scrambled to her feet in order to get Streak out of the building. Since she was taking care of Streak, Saiyo went looking for the source of the shot. "Keiji, Magoichi?"

"What are you doing here, Saiyo you can't be working with them," Keiji patted her shoulder. "I'm sorry, we were offered a lot of money to protect the leader after what happened to Rin. We couldn't turn it down."

"I guess that explains it," Magoichi whispered. She pulled the cloth out from her belt loop and sprung at Saiyo. They fell to the ground as Saiyo struggled to get away. Magoichi got the cloth tied around her mouth so her calls for help were pointless over the panic. More yellow scarves flooded inside the base at the sign of the gunfire. Keiji was hesitant, but he knew what he had to do. He bound Saiyo and slung her over his shoulder. "I'm sorry," he said as she began to tear up.

Karia lead Streak out of the building through a back entrance. "Are okay from here?" Karia asked. "Yea I should be" Karia looked back over her shoulder. "Im going back to make sure my sister's alright." With a nod from Streak she ran back into the building. By this point most of the Yellow Scarves had infiltrated the building and Karia found herself fighting against the people she had fought with against the Blue Squares only a couple days prior. She had only a moment to scan the area for her sister before a yellow and black fist came flying towards her face. She ducked under the fist and pushed herself off the ground in order to headbutt her opponent in the chest. Ieyasu landed on the ground hard and Karia leapt over him and disappeared into the mass of gang members. "Masamune!" She called as she worked her way to him. He had one of the other Blue Squares, Kojuro at his side helping him fight a guy with a white hat and a chick with long blond hair. "Have you seen Saiyo?" She asked and she side stepped to avoid the blond haired girls knives. "Last time I saw her she was looking around for whoever fired the gun," Masamune told her as he ducked to avoid Kenshin's right hook. "Shit, this is chaos," she growled, running to a corner away from the fighting and pulling out her phone. When she was about to dial her sister's number, she glanced around at the concrete and saw Saiyo's phone smashed to pieces. "Oh great." The next best person to call seemed like Shizuo, so she held the phone up to her ear and waited for a response. "Saiyo wasn't picking up her phone, what's going on?" He said gruffly as he answered. "Her cell is trashed, I don't know where she is that's why I called you."

"What's that noise?"

"Gang war, that's why I'm worried."

"Shit, get out of there, I'll get Celty." He hung up and Karia looked for the easiest route to an exit.

Saiyo felt herself being thrown into a van, but the doors had not locked her in yet. She took the opportunity to gnaw at the bracelet around her wrist that Celty made for her as a young girl. It was thin plastic woven together, so with desperate vigor, it fell off and she flung it with her teeth out of the van. Magoichi had noticed, however she didn't pick it up. Honestly, she was hoping someone would take the hint and find her. Just because she was carrying out orders didn't mean she wanted Saiyo to get hurt. However, considering the damage done to Rin, that was a slim possibility.

When the blindfold was taken off, Saiyo couldn't see anything more than she could before. It was cold and, she guessed, damp due to the continuous dripping all around her. The rope securing her to a metal chair wouldn't were heavy footsteps coming towards her now, and she frantically peered through the darkness to see who. The only hint she got was a backhand across her left cheek. Finally, a dim lightbulb was clicked on. This mature Yellow Scarf was new to her. His face was contorted into a strange smirk, almost black beady eyes scanning her. "That was from the boss."

"Who are you? One of the street thugs he uses for manpower?"

"Yeah, I'm an outside guy, just 'cause I don't have fancy martial arts or weapon skills like you brats."

"What are you doing here, then? Where is here?"

"Can't tell you that sweet cheeks. All you gotta know is that I'm Donzo and I'm gonna be takin' care of you for a little while."

"Taking care of me? What's going on, please?"

"You're cute when you're scared. The boss said I could do what I want with you, but that I have to keep you at least barely alive." He slid off his yellow jacket and came closer. Saiyo cringed as he ran his filthy hands through her hair, then yanking it up to bring her eyes to his. "Don't worry, I'll make you like it."

"NO, HELP!"

Karia had to knock out a couple of guys before getting out. She raced around the perimeter of the hideout, looking for a signs of a struggle. "Karia!" Shizuo shouted from behind her. He got off of Celty's bike, clutching something in his hand. Celty began typing on her phone. 'Its the one I made her,' it read. "What?"

Shizuo dangled the bracelet from his fingers. "She left us a sign, you can tell she chewed it off," Karia murmured as she examined it. "I'm gonna fucking kill whoever did this."

"We all are," Karia growled as Celty nodded with her. 'Where are we going to start?' Celty's screen read. "I don't know, dammit."

"Skid marks?" Karia asked. "I didn't see any."

"Well we can assume the yellow scarves got her."

'Not necessarily, from all the jobs you two did, there are a lot of enemies that could have done it,' Celty explained. "But, during a gang war, it wouldn't be too far fetched for it to be them."

"Let's search the hideouts," Shizuo suggested. It sounded like a good place to start.

How many days has it been? Probably not even one. It feels like an eternity in hell the more that disgusting man breathes.

"The boss told me not to give you any food, so I got you somethin' to drink."

"Is it drugged?"

"Nah,"

Saiyo let him pour the liquid down her throat. It didn't taste off to her, but there are plenty of drugs and poisons undetected by senses.

"Boss thinks I'm gettin' too attached to you, so he's gonna be comin' around every so often to make sure I'm doin' some damage. We can't just keep havin' fun anymore. Sorry about this, sweet cheeks," Donzo said as he stood and encroached on her with fists drawn.

When it was over, she had lost count of the broken bones and bruises. The metal chair she'd been strapped to was tipped over after a kick to the ribs, the right side of her face numb from constant contact with the cold concrete. She'd been like that for days, or possibly weeks, since Donzo had stayed away for some reason. Maybe she was supposed to lay here and finally die, alone. If I hadn't been so weak, I could've avoided all of this...I'm sorry Karia. I'm sorry Shizuo, and Celty and Shinra and everyone...

I never got to tell you, Shizuo...I...

There was sudden light piercing her eyes. The sun reigned down warm rays on her for the first time in what seemed like forever. A tall figure was coming toward her hastily, their identity blocked by the blinding light. She assumed it was just another thug, since different ones came every once in a while. The ropes were cut, raising suspicion in her. Familiar arms scooped her up and she finally saw their face. Shizuo...

"You're safe, Saiyo," he cooed.

A familiar scent filled her nostrils, and it was no question that Saiyo was home. The scent was of her sister's favorite tea. Karia was murmuring to someone at the far side of the room from her, and from the excessive swearing and gruff tone she knew it was Shizuo. Saiyo sensed another presence, but this one did not speak, which gave away the fact that it was Celty.

As she stretched her arms, a sharp pain stabbed her ribs and she cringed, curling her arms back in to a position that was safe. The three darted their eyes to her, and Karia was the first at her side. "Hey, sis. Are you alright?"

"I think so."

"You have a lot of injuries to recover from. Shizuo and I are going to take care of you though, so there's nothing to worry about. But there's one thing I have to ask of you."

"What?"

"Do you know who did this to you?"

"Kida made the decisions."

"I know and I'll deal with him, but do you know who actually did all of this to you?"

"Oh...his name is Donzo. He's one of the street thugs..."

"Okay, I'll be back. Will you both stay with her?"

"There is no way you're killing this bastard without me," Shizuo protested. "I really don't think Saiyo wants to be alone right now."

"Celty can stay wi-" A smack upside the head let him know Celty wasn't staying either. "Okay, someone has to compromise here," Karia glared at the two. Celty suddenly began typing on her phone. Shizuo and Karia agreed to what she said, so she dialed a number and held it up to Karia's ear. "Hey, its been awhile,"

"Yeah, I know, Celty and I have a favor to ask. Could you come over and stay with Saiyo while we take care of something?"

"Okay, thank you," Karia hung up and handed the phone back to Celty.

Saiyo was dying to know who was coming to babysit her.

"Hey, everyone!" Shinra beamed as he crossed through their front door. "Shinra," Saiyo smiled. Of course, they wouldn't trust anyone but him right now. He settled on the mat next to Saiyo's, telling the group they could go on and that he would take care of her.

"Call me if you need anything," Karia smiled at her sister, then patting her on the head before she and the others left.

It only took five seconds of silence until Shinra couldn't stand it anymore. "Okay, what is going on, I must know."

"You know what happened to me, I'm guessing."

"Of course, I just want to know what those three are so fired up about."

"There was one specific thug that was in charge of me the whole time, he was the one who...did all of this to me. They are going to find him."

"I almost feel sorry for that guy, but then, I really don't."

Saiyo nodded, disturbing memories infiltrating her mind again. Luckily, her phone rang to disrupt them. She gasped, wondering what he wanted. "Why are you calling me?"

"I heard you were rescued, I'm so glad. I know I'll never be able to apologized enough."

"Keiji, there is a certain point in which you should question your orders instead of blindly following them." She said, hanging up before he got the chance to respond. "May I ask who that was?"

"One of the Yellow Scarves that threw me in a van."

"Well, tell Celty about him, he could be wiped off the planet in three seconds flat."

"He isn't that bad, honestly. He's a good guy, just with the wrong crowd."

"Sounds like you."

Saiyo shrugged, looking back at her phone and wondering if she should call Keiji back. Just then, she got her answer; he sent her a text saying, 'I wanted to talk not only to apologize, but to warn you.'

She considered it might just be another trap, but she also had the gut feeling this could be penance for kidnapping her. 'I assume you know where my apartment is, come on up,' she replied.

In an incomprehensibly short amount of time, there was a soft rap on the door and Shinra tensed. "I know who it is, you can let them in."

"Can you trust them?"

"I think so."

Shinra wearily opened the door just a crack to see a towering, muscular brunette.

"Uhm..."

"Come in, Keiji."

"Wait, Keiji? The kidnapper, Keiji? I don't think so, you can just get out right now," Shinra shouted, pointing to the door. "He just wants to talk, it's okay."

"I know you can't trust me right now, I don't blame you, but I just want to convey my sincerest apologies and tell you that I'm not up to anything by coming here."

"Okay. Well, what did you want to warn me about?"

"You look horrible, I can't believe they did this to you, I'm so sorry, If I had known..."

"I know you didn't know, but what did you want to warn me about?"

Keiji sighed, taking a seat near Saiyo. "Some people aren't very happy that you got away and they might try to capture you again. A lot of us who got to know you, and even some blue squares that listened to me, decided to become sort of double agents. Still in our gangs, but with our true purpose to protect you."

"That's so dangerous, you'll be killed if you're discovered!"

"It's worth it. Magoichi and I came up with the idea, and a few other members from each gang decided to join us."

"Thank you for doing that for me..."

"Seeing you like this makes me even more determined." Keiji looked at the floor, ashamed of himself. Saiyo put a hand on the side of his face, tilting his head up. "You may have put me in danger then, but you're risking your life for me now, so don't feel bad anymore. I'll heal, Keiji."

He looked into her and, despite the bandages and scars, her beauty and kindness shown through and at that instant Keiji desired nothing more in the world than to save this girl. He put a hand on hers while she still cradled his jaw. "I will make sure nothing like this happens to you again."

"Okay, thank you..."

"You might wanna get out of here before some people who want to kill you get back," Shinra interrupted.

"No, no, stay. I want us to explain it to them together," Saiyo said, giving a soft smile and a nod to Shinra. "Okay, but don't look at me if they kill him."

"Don't kill me PLEASE! THEY WERE JUST ORDERS!"

"I heard you weren't too upset about it, you piece of shit, you raped my sister!" Karia screamed in Donzo's face as he cowered in a corner between a dumpster and ally wall. Shizuo lifted a sturdy lead pipe over his head, then pausing. "Maybe this bastard deserves to be killed with our bare hands," he suggested. "Nah, this'll hurt more," Karia said, wielding a sleek knife. Celty had removed her helmet so that the black smoke emanated from her neck.

"Maybe I got a little carried away, but it wasn't that bad!"

"She can hardly move! I don't give a shit if you got carried away, that's no excuse for what you did!"

"You don't deserve to breathe," Shizuo growled, clutching Donzo's throat and squeezing gradually tighter until he began gasping.

Keiji, Shinra, and Saiyo anxiously awaited the other's arrival, not sure how they would react to all this. You could hear a pin drop in that room; not one of them dared to talk, they wanted to hear them coming up the stairs. Keiji got up to use the bathroom, hoping he wouldn't be in their vision when they came in.

When the moment finally arrived, Shinra sprung up to greet them. The three seemed just as angry as they were when they left. "A couple of cops drove by, we had to scram before we could kill the bastard," Karia sighed, sitting down on a mat next to her sister. "It's okay, nee-chan."

"No it isn't. Everyone involved should suffer." Shizuo spat, just as Keiji inched into view. "What the hell is he doing here?" Karia stood and looked directly at Shinra. "You allowed this? For him to even be around her?"

"Just hear them out," he said. Celty crossed her arms and, though she didn't have eyes, managed to glare at Shinra with the wrath of a thousand daggers. "Karia, he and some others from both the Blue Squares and Yellow Scarves have decided to become double agents of sorts. To protect me and keep tabs on what each gang is up to."

"Gee this doesn't sound like a trap at all."

"I thought of that, but I'm going with my gut. When has it been wrong?"

"You've trusted Izaya before." Shizuo mentioned.

"That hasn't really backfired on me yet."

"Actually...he was the one that led Kida to you. I thought you knew that."

"No but we should have. That bastard," Karia clenched her fists and her jaw. "We can kick the shit out of him too."

"I'd rather his punishment fit his crime. Beating him up wouldn't be enough." Saiyo said. Shizuo flashed a smirk at her.

Keiji's phone began ringing and it was his partner in the gang, magoichi, calling. She told him the Yellow Squares were having a meeting and that he needed to get to the base right away.

Shinra and Celty took off shortly after Keiji, leaving Saiyo, Karia, and Shizuo in the apartment. "I ain't leaving, so don't throw a fit for nothing," Shizuo told karia as she opened her mouth to speak, most likely to kick him out. "Fine. You can go get us some food then."

Kida sat on his platform overlooking all of his minions. "Our revenge won't be fulfilled until someone precious to those blue squares feels the torment my Rin felt. Saiyo got away from us once, but it won't happen again. I wouldn't put some irresponsible idiot in charge again. So, I intend on sending someone I know I can trust. Someone who didn't or wouldn't have any compassion for this girl despite the fact that she worked for us."

Everyone looked around at each other, wondering who it would be. "I think Motonari will get the job done."

Kida waved his hand and Mori Motonari came forth, wearing predominantly green with only hints of yellow. "Don't screw me over." Kida instructed. Before he walked off to carry out the task, Kida pulled him back, leaning in close and lowering his voice. "If you need to take care of her sister, or anyone else for that matter, do it." Motonari nodded and swiftly bounded out of the headquarters. Keiji narrowed his eyebrows, wishing he knew what Kida just told Mori; it could be dangerous. Nudging Magoichi, Keiji started making his way through the crowd to the exit of the warehouse.
