Hey all.
Dom here with the new chapter. Now, things are starting to get serious with us. Me and Violet are now in year 12, the final year of high school, so we can try and update once a month or something like that from now on, sorry. :(
I'll let you guys read on while I finish planning how to make a double bass for my D.T major work.

27.
It had been three weeks since Azusa had come out of hospital. She had been a lot more jumpy and uneasy ever since the incident, but nothing to serious. The cuts was still on her arm, and every-time she looked at it, she flipped out. Her parents kept her home for most of the time, and she was rarely ever let outside, except for the occasional walk to the park and back.
One day, as she was lying in bed, the doorbell rang, giving her a fright. A few minutes later, as the ringing in her ears died down, the door to her room gently opened, and in the door way stood Mio. She looked a real mess, her eyes were blotchy and swollen, like she had been crying, and her hair was matted.
"Mio Senpai" Azusa whispered, her lips apart as she stared at the bassist.
"Azusa."
Grey stared into ruby as the atmosphere got slightly heavy. Mio dragged her lifeless feet over to the bed and hugged Azusa tightly. The younger girl hugged back, and both of them cried silently.
They regained their composures as Mio explained to Azusa what had happened while she was in hospital. She used her deep, smooth voice like ages hands that picked the lock on the past, and Azusa was entraced at how much detail her senior was putting into her words.
When she told Azusa about Yui snapping, her hands clasped her mouth and she squeaked in shock.
"Azusa, you need to know this," Mio said, placing a light hand on top of Azusa's leg. She bored her angled eyes into the terrified rubies and continued telling the young girl about the events that had happened only a week ago, yet it felt like a lifetime. She took a deep breath, and continued to talk.
Mio spoke her two hours, and Azusa absorbed all the information. She didn't say anything, and let her eyes do the talking. They were shinning in fear and disbelif, and Mio noticed this. She stopped speaking, allowing the air to flow back into her lungs, then hugged Azusa. She started sobbing again, and Azusa burst into tears.
(^0^)
Mio left the Nanako residence with a lump in her throat. Her shoes scuffed the concrete ground as she walked down the pathway. Her hands were stuffed in her black trench-coat pockets and the cold air stung against her face. her raven hair whipped and whirled around her, but she didn't both to try and control it. She hadn't seen Mugi in a week, and she was extremely worried.
"Mugi…"Just thinking of the blonde made the lump in her throat grow larger. She tightened her hands inside her pockets and chocked back on the tears. She waited at the bus stop for a while, her thoughts in a shrouded mist of Mugi.
The bus rolled up, it's breaks screeching as it halted directly in front of the depressed bassist. Mio got to her marshmallow legs and dragged herself onto the bus, payed, then scuffed her feet to the very back of the bus and huffed into the seat. The bus continued it's journey, and Mio noticed that she was the only occupant on the bus. She took out her headphones and got lost in the music. She continued to weep silently as her throat constricted.
She didn't have any particular destination in mind, just everywhere and anywhere the bus took her. The depression and thoughts of Mugi being murdered followed her like a dark cloud, and the only way to ease it off was with long and empty bus trips. Looking out the window, she noticed that light splatter of rain were hitting the window. Mio sighed and watched the dropplets hit the window. She imagined that they were bullets that were hitting her heart. Bullets of depressing thoughts about Mugi. She continued to stare out the window as the bus stopped and picked up a hooded passenger.
She continued to be depressed and stared out the window while the bus rolled placed her right leg over her left and watched the traffic flow by in a jerky motion. The rain continued to hit the window, and Mio was growing immune to the pain it was giving her.
The rest of the trip was quiet, until a strange figure came onto the bus. Mio continued to stare out the window and let the misery detroy her as the figure sat opposite her. The bassist didn't care, she just continued to let the depression sink into her mind.
However, as the rain hit the window harder than before, the figure pounced on Mio.
Her head hit against the window with a "thud" as water blurred her vision. The figure pinned Mio to the side of the bus by her shoulders, grasping fistfuls of hair and jacket, making Mio wince slightly. She could now get a better lok at her attacker as the water in her eyes cleared. The figure was a woman, and her her hooded jacket was up, shrowding her face with fake fur. Mio made a square kick into the woman's chest, sending her toppling back onto the dirty floor of the bus.
"What the fuck are you doing!" She panted through heavy breaths, pushing her raven hair behind her and standing on the woman's hands. She looked up, her dull eyes wide.
"Orders from Yamanaka. She wants anyone associated with Kotobuki to be killed," she croaked, her chapped lips were shaking as she stood up. Her jacket slipped slightly, to reveal a dirty tattoo that said "DEATH DEVIl."
"No way," Mio whispered, but then she was taken by surprise and shrieked when the woman grabbed her ankle, tripping her. Mio's head whacked against the ground as the woman pounced on her, revealing a knife in her hand. Mio's eyes widened in shcok, then she took immediate action and shoved her foot into the woman's face, who shrieked and clawed at her boot. Mio shook herself free and managed to get to her feet, then pushed her boot down on the woman's neck.
"Why is Yamanaka doing this?" She asked as the woman breathed heavily. With a scowl, she pushed down, causing the woman to groan.
"Answer me!" she snarled, not in the mood to play games. The woman gulped, then started to speak.
"She asked us 'devils' to go after anyone associated with Kotobuki to be eliminated. We would get rewarded with pleasures. She said something about revenge..."
Mio spat in the woman's face, the shoved her foot down, knocking her out.
She had heard enough.
She pulled out her phone and sat down in her seat, dialling a number. She waited a bit, until the person she needed picked up.
"Hello?"
"Ritsu, I need you to come to my place ASAP. I just got attacked."
"You too? Same! Some crazy bitch just threatened me with a knife."
"This is getting serious. We need to find Mugi, so come to my place tonight and we'll discuss it, okay?"
"Sure. See ya."
Mio ended the call and ran a hand through her hair. If Yamanka wanted to play dirty, then so would she.
Okay, I promise that all will make sense in the future, but this story is no where near finished :)
See you in the next chapter!
