Chapter 11

I walked outside of the hospital and stopped for a moment, waiting for the other two girls to catch up. I had quickly thought over a plan of how to kill Erika. I'll catch her alone, tell her I know who she really is and what she does, then go with her somewhere to rob some place. The catch was that whenever we are there, I'd kill her and then leave. Problem solved, or I hoped so at least.

"Hey, Er- Rosie." I called out to the thief. Shit, I almost called her Erika. I just hope she doesn't notice it.

"Hm?" She stopped in her tracks beside me and Isis waved goodbye to us, then ran off somewhere. I leaned closer to her and cupped my hands around her ear as I whispered to her, that way no one walking by could read my lips.

"I know who you really are, Rose. Or should I say Erika?" She didn't gasp but looked at me with wide eyes; but then she smirked.

"I also know who you really are, Lamia." Wow, I didn't expect that. I sense a rivalry of some sort brewing between us. "Actually, your quite famous among us high-ranking criminals because of your job. We learn to stay away from you and keep track of where you are going so you won't get ahold of us."

"Wow. I didn't think many knew the true me." I said, returning the smirk and crossing my arms bellow my chest.

"You know, since we both know the truth about each other and all, how about we go on a little mission together, eh?" Erika suggested and I nodded. I held out a fist to fist-bump her.

"Alrighty then." Erika smiled and bumped my fist. "Come on, I've already got a good place picked out. Having you with me will be a lot more fun and easier because you can kill any witnesses, if there are any."

"Of course. That's what I get payed for, thief." We started walking towards a mansion.

"Okay hitman, follow me and watch my back." Erika told me and we easily jumped over the stone wall that surrounded the back of the house.

I had my ninjato out and ready as she pick-locked a window. She thought I was watching her back, but I was really watching my prey.

"This was quite fun. Too bad you have to be killed Erika, because I feel like we could have been friends if you weren't a criminal that I've always wanted to kill." I sighed and pinched the bridge of my nose, then looked back at her.

She had stopped what she was doing and stood. She had a pocketknife open and ready to attack me with. Oh, a fight to the death I see. Haven't had one of these in a long time.

"Was that just my imagination, or did you say you were going to kill me beca-" Erika was cut off as I sliced the hand that was holding the knife off of her arm.

Her honey colored eyes went wide and filled with tears and she dropped to her knees. "This wasn't really a fight to the death. Aww." I pouted.

Erika glared up at me and stood back up. "Why you...! Stupid bitch!" She yelled and kicked me, but I quickly sidestepped. She threw a punch at me with her only hand left, but I didn't move. I charged at her and ducked under her fist and sliced from her lower stomach up to her neck.

That stopped her, because she fell backwards and landed with a light thud on the patio of the mansion. I licked my ninjato clean of blood and then kneeled over her. I sank my sharp teeth into the cut on her lower neck. Erika was still alive, but she was dying. It was her time to die. Her blood was actually pure for a criminal, probably because she didn't drink or smoke.

I sucked on the cut and then stood back up, wiping my face and mouth clean of blood before putting my weapon back into my boot and leaving. Another criminal had been killed. The thought made the corners of my mouth turn upwards to form a small smile.

"Let's go." B told me and we ran into the alley where we seen Misora. He was planning on attacking her to test her abilities, and I was going with him just in case things got out of hand.

Beyond and I both hid our identities behind black masks; and I had a feeling Misora would know who it was attacking her if she saw my ninjato, so I had it hid in my sleeve for emergencies only.

Beyond brought a bag filled with sand to attack with. However, from my hiding spot around the corner and in a shadow, I saw Beyond's hit miss because Misora sensed him behind her and did a cartwheel to the side. Beyond took off running and he grabbed my hand and pulled me along with him before Misora caught up.

BB led me to a white van that he stole earlier, and hid his weapon and our masks in it. Now that we were safe, so we both went to go buy more jam and suckers.
