It's funny how you think Akami-san. You made me laugh thinking that those boys were... you know... lol. Anyway, sorry if I just updated now. I know that you readers wanted me to update so soon. Here it is!


Saya called Sven and Rin to tell them about what happened to her Train. To Saya's dismay, Rin's cell phone was turned off. So she met up with Sven and Eve the following day at the diner. She woke up early and greeted her friend cat which was usually staying at the rooftops. She jumped from one rooftop to another until she had finally reached the diner. She jumped down and went in. Then, she ordered her breakfast as she waited for Train's friends to arrive."Darn! Why do we have to meet her at the diner? Couldn't we meet her somewhere else? I mean, I don't have any money to treat the three of us." Sven complained.

"Sven..." Eve mumbled, pulling Sven's clothes.

"Where is Rin when you need her? We've been searching for clues about those so-called missing people and yet we found nothing and heard nothing from Rin. Why didn't I even ask her how much award is waiting if we found whoever was causing these trouble?" Sven said as he covered his face with his hat.

"Sven..."

GRUMBLE

"My stomach's aching... We need to eat sooner or later..."

Eve took something from the trash nearby. Sven quickly removed Eve's clean hands away from the dirty trash. "Look, you're not going to eat any trash just because we don't have money. I'll find another way to..." Sven stopped. Eve was holding something familiar in her hands. As he peered at it, it was Rin's heart-shaped necklace and cell phone. Sven and Eve thought it was odd since Rin had worn that necklace the same day they met at the diner. He kept it in his pocket until they reached the diner. When they arrived, Saya was already finished eating her breakfast. She waved at them as she was drinking her milk. Sven and Eve sat down next to her and then, both of their stomachs grumbled. Saya looked at both of them and laughed. "You two remind me of Train-kun. His stomach grumbles every time."

Saya let the two of them order anything they want. Then, Sven noticed that there were wanted fliers posted on the wall and so, he took one of them secretly in order to pay back Saya. While waiting for the order, Saya told them what happened to her Train. To Sven's and Eve's astonishment, Rin had left the same thing. The only difference is that it was inside the trash. Why would Rin leave it there? Someone else could have done it and whoever that was; probably it was the same person responsible for the missing cat. These thoughts were formed in their minds.

After a nice breakfast, the three of them separated to find Train, Rin and the other missing people as well. Sven and Eve have not gone far when they saw someone familiar lurking in the dark, busy streets waiting for the next victim. Eve took the flier from Sven and pointed the picture of the lady in it. Sven nodded and grinned at her. It was Ivy, the poison lady. She had a long evergreen hair, small red eyes and ivory-colored dress. Anyone would be fooled by her looks. Her victims were mostly men and children.

Eve changed appearance in order to lure Ivy in following her while Sven waited for the opportunity to assault her. Ivy's eyes glistened as she saw the child passing by herself. The child seemed rich since she was wearing beautiful clothes and carrying a big baggage. Ivy did not come out from her hiding; instead, she followed Eve like a shadow.

"Now, now, child," Ivy spoke softly. "If you want the way out of here, you need to come with me."

"No, thank you." Eve responded.

Annoying kids... Ivy thought as she kept pace with her. Eve kept turning right and left until she pretended that she got lost. She ran to a dark corner and changed back into her real form. Ivy was about to jump at her when a red, dark, human-formed liquid came out from the ground. It held her tight like she was the victim. Then, a gunshot was heard. Saya looked back and heard it as well. That gunshot... Could it be...? She scampered from where she was standing to where she heard it.

"Who's there?" Sven came out as he stood beside Eve. Ivy was shot on her right feet. No one responded. He looked at the red, dark, liquid which was holding Ivy up high. Then, he heard running footsteps at the top of the buildings. Another gunshot came. This time, it hit Ivy's heart. Sven covered Eve and looked up. Where is that coming from? It can't be...

There, at the top of the building was the merciless Black Cat. His yellow, cat-like eyes looked at them. It was cold. It was empty. It was emotionless, once again. Train was wearing the same black trench coat, black top, and trousers he had worn when he was still in Chrono Numbers. Beside him was the member of the Apostles of the Stars, Charden. Sven just realized that it was Charden who was using the 'Blood' on Ivy. Saya arrived and saw her Train alive. She was about to run towards him when another shot came from his Hades. This time, it hit Ivy's forehead. Saya looked down and saw Train's friends and the one that they are after.

"What are you doing, Train? You're a sweeper! You're not supposed to kill someone like her. Sweepers aren't like that!" Sven said angrily.

"I am not a sweeper like you." Train replied as he aimed his Hades at Eve and Sven.

"Train-kun, don't do..." Saya stopped. He already fired his Hades and it was not aiming on his friends, it was aiming on her direction. "...that." She was able to evade it but it made a little scratch on her face. She touched the part it made a scratch and looked at Train. "Train-kun... doushite?"
