CHAPTER 4
"Sir we have arrived" a gruff, deep voice called silently out at the young teen. Sitting half asleep. He blinked thrice before his vision viewed to point. Two men was in front of him, wearing dark tux and wired earphones hanged from one ear.
Looking pass through his bangs covering one of his eyes, he felt a yawn coming. He needed sleep. God knows he needed sleep. Standing up, as he heard the audible rustle of his clothe, he patted away some imaginary dust above his shoulders and shook the remaining sleep in his eyes.
Being a leader of a very important company isn't really all that troublesome. Owning a number of private vehicles, his most favourite is his jet and his bullet train.
Mainly for it's comfortable space and security but the memories the train carried. The door opened in front of where he stood, still yawning as his tired eyes drooped.
" Eeey ! Welcome Back !" greeted a young man about his age, beside him was another young man with silver hair wearing a grin.
Minato stepped out of the train, Eyes half close unable to shake off the final feeling of sleepiness, followed by the two men who awoke him, they stood in a respective distance. Minato approached them.
"How's our young leader doin' " Yosuke greeted. Placing his head phones around his neck.
"I'm doing well... thank you "
Yususke whistled, as if impressed. "Very professional now, are we ?" He gave a care free laugh, Yu joined in to further tease the blue-head who just smiled in response.
"So ... Is there anyone with you " Yu asked, His eyes travelling behind Minato, Yosuke did the same as searching for something or someone. "Besides your guards there ?" he added.
"No. She's not with me this time."
Minako sat on her room, staring at the camera. Having placed the cube back in its proper. She knows they are watching her. She saw the videos before, and it she felt mix emotions about them too. She did not do much to it. Just placed a timer when it would malfunction on the given time. Her experience today was quite different. Meeting Takaya.
She shivered.
He did not do anything though, after that reply he walked away like a normal person would. She couldn't help but smile at the thought. That was pretty mean of her. It's not like he isn't really a normal person though, he is still, beyond all odds, a person.
She returned to the dorm at sunset, and climbed to her room. After an earful from Mitsuru about school.
Though she could see something else, Mr. Ikutski's smiling face who was sitting on the chair, speaking to Yukari as she watched me, not paying full attention to the man. She could see her face, apologizing.
She sat back up, her elbows prompt on her knees as she leaned her chin on the palm of her hands. Eyeing the clock with a glare.
The time was 9:00, 3 more hours and the time will soon come again. That eerie night of fear. Where it all begun. She looked up from her door, then at some parts of her small room, she spotted her phone lying untouched on her desk, it was blinking.
She stood up and walked towards it, flipping it open. The screen indicated 10 miss calls and 22 messages from her brother. The only contact in her contact list. She opened one message after another, viewing and reading it briefly then deleting them. How long was she gone ? It's only been 2 days before she arrived, but her messages made it seemed like she was gone for 3 months considering the numbers of worried texts and drowned missed calls from her brother.
You broke your promise Onii-chan she whispered.
Flipping her phone close as she reached the final message . Closed her eyes as she lay herself down. Her hair spread on her pillow, her hands placed on top of her chest, her phone inside.
Closing her eyes for a minute. There was still 3 hours left. And the camera will turn off on itself when the Dark Hour returns. She could rest while she waits.
Minato walked around the garden of the Seven sister's court yard. The school was rumoured to have a curse turning the students into freaks. Of course that was yesterday's history. Their uncle was the one who told him that, His sister would often get scared for those stories. He can't blame her, they were after all still young when he told that.
He heard the grass rustle behind him, He turned and shifted into his defensive position, eyeing the moving figure behind the all shrubs. His left hand placed beside his pistol ready to grab and shoot.
"Chill ... It's me" Yu held his hands over his head. Minato relaxed and gave a soft chuckle. "My apologies..." He said.
Yu laughed. "A bit jumpy now are we ? Relax it's still early. You worried ?" Minato gave him a weak smile as he stared at the moon. Yu walked closer to him patting him on the shoulder. "Me too"
They heard another shuffle on the bushes Minato tensed again, Yu glared at the direction , getting ready for anything.
"Hey ! Where are you Guys ?" Yosuke's voice cleared. Yu called back. A moment later he came into view. "What are you guys up to ?"
"Nothin' just discussin' " Minato joked. Yosuke laughed "Hey what happened to the all professional talk ?" Minato chuckled.
"Discussin' what ?" Yu shook his head. "Just normal older brother stuff."
Minato chatted with the other teens for awhile, as time passed. He waited until the cost was clear.
Yosuke would throw teases and jokes at him, but failed when he laughed for himself then looking at his poker face, He complained about his mono-expressions. Some subjects they would talk about always rotated about around Minato's younger sister.
"So ... I heard you've met someone from the kirijo group." Yu mused.
Minato nodded. "A very straight forward man." Yosuke chuckled " Have you met her daughter ?" Minato added.
Yu grinned "Hey, my parents may have been rich and all work. That doesn't mean I should follow their footsteps and work my ass off, besides ... I already got my eye on someone ... "
"Red eyes, Light Brownish Hair... sweet smile, Un-natural appetite for Food." Yosuke recited happily making familiar face patterns of the said person. Minato glared at both teens.
"whoa, I guess we struck a nerve" Yu teased
Yosuke laughed in approval. Somewhere Minato was hearing voiced inside his head. though he ignored it with a low almost growling chuckle. Dark Aura rose around him, those low dark chuckles emitted with icy pricks pieced them as it touched their ears.
He does not want any drama to start. But a little warning would not hurt, would it ?
Walking out of the Seven's Garden to the front gate where Minato's Limousine was waiting. Two men in black suits watching them.
