sorry for the lateness ^/^ school stuff ya know.

Disclaimer: i. own. absolutely. nothing.

'What on earth have I gotten myself into?' Kazuya thought as he quickly and briskly walked the streets of Manhattan. Mai was following closely behind him, on a few occasions she had been walking too slowly for his tastes and he'd had to grab her hand and drag her along. He tried to ignore the sparks he felt from the contact. 'There must be a lot of static in the air today.' He thought absently.

"Yeah, that's what it is." Gene mumbled sarcastically.

"Stow it Gene." Kazuya ordered. When the other voice in his head remained silent, Kazuya returned to his thoughts. Here he was trusting an odd girl with not just his own life but the life of his only living relative besides his parents. Humorously enough, Mai was thinking the exact same thing.

'What in the world am I doing?' she asked herself as they sped along. She was following a mysterious looking man back to god knows where he could lead her. All she knew about this man was his name and the fact that he had a little cousin that had been kidnapped by the same people who kidnapped her parents. 'Let's see, I'm following a man I barely know back to his apartment. Isn't this the first thing that's covered in those classes about how to avoid ending up in an alleyway?' Mai kept thinking that for a minute before she amended herself. It wasn't his apartment they were going back to; it was the apartment of his friend John who he was staying with. But since he never stopped to look at street signs of traffic lights, Mai had to wonder if he wasn't a New Yorker.

As they kept walking Mai had to wonder why the people behind this had gotten Kazuya involved, Mai's adoptive family as well as herself had power worldwide. But Kazuya Shibuya? She'd never heard of him before. So what could he have done? Never mind, Mai thought they already had far too many questions that needed to be answered for her to be wondering about something like that.

Mai watched Kazuya as he dragged her through the crowds and tried for the umpteenth time not to blush in embarrassment. Despite what she said before, Mai really did think Kazuya was an attractive man. However, he probably knew that so Mai refused to acknowledge it. But the fact that a very attractive man was holding her hand. In a way it was almost like they were a couple, at least in the eyes of the women who sent glares Mai's way as they walked towards the apartment complex. But who wouldn't be attracted to a man like Kazuya Shibuya?

Compared to Mai he was at least a head taller, with dark hair messed up in a way that only made him more appealing. He had shoulders slightly more slender than most males, but they were still broader than Mai's. He had pale skin that almost resembled a doll's complexion, with striking sapphires for eyes. When she'd arrived at the church he was only wearing a long-sleeved black turtle-neck, even still she could see how nicely it hugged his figure. And now since he was wearing an open black over coat to match with the rest of his black ensemble, it gave him an aura of mystery, that bad boy appeal that no girl can resist. Still with it opened like that you could see that though he wasn't trying to show off, he wasn't saying he wasn't fit. Mai was so absorbed in scrutinizing his appearance that she didn't notice him stop suddenly and she almost slammed into him.

"Why'd you stop?" she asked as she backed up about two feet for good measure.

"We're here." Was all he said as he ushered her forward into the building.

"Impressive." Was all Mai could say as she looked around the cozy, yet marble floored lobby.

"I'll have to tell John you think so." Kazuya replied as she followed him into the elevator.

However nice the lobby was, the apartment in comparison looked as though it was uninhabited.

"John spends a lot of his time at his parish." Kazuya explained as he guided her to the couch, "So much that he sometimes spends the nights with the orphans that live there. Not that I mind, I actually prefer the solitude. Stay right here, I need to get a few things from my room."

When he was sure she'd stay put he went to his room. There he pulled out a bag and looked over the contents carefully. Glancing between them, Kazuya deliberated and the merits of cleaning versus the merits of reloading before taking out a small pistol as well as two of his five throwing knives. He wondered if he should give his bottle of mace to Mai, before wondering whether or not she even knew how to use it or whether whatever they were going up against needed precaution.

Kazuya went to the threshold of the living room. There he saw Mai looking over the letter she'd gotten earlier in the morning with a melancholy expression on her face. He couldn't help but feel sorry for her.

"What's this Oliver? Could it be? You have feelings? Incredible!" Gene exclaimed.

"Shut it Gene. Her only family was kidnapped. Now is not the time to be evaluating whether or not I'm a human." Kazuya scolded.

"Naru? Is something wrong?" Mai's voice broke him out of arguing with Gene.

"Naru?" Kazuya asked.

Mai shrugged, "I figure that you're such a narcissist you need a name befitting one. Hence Naru the narcissist." She explained happily.

"Oh," was his noncommittal response.

"Hit the nail on the head, didn't she Noll?" Gene asked.

Naru chose to ignore the voice in his head and return to more pressing matters. He decided to sit down on the couch and look at the other papers Mai had pulled out.

"So Mai, do you have any way to protect yourself should the need arise?" he asked bluntly.

"No, I don't like to hurt people." She looked at him, "Why? Do I need to have something like that?" she asked.

"I'm not exactly sure, but I think we're better off being safe than sorry." Naru replied.

"Why?" Mai asked.

"We're going up against people who have no problem kidnapping two middle to senior age people as well as a little girl to use as leverage against us. And have no problem threatening their lives as well as our own. What do you think Mai?" Naru said harshly.

"Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't realize…" Mai trailed off, tears threatening to spill down her cheeks.

Naru sighed, "Mai, I'm not trying to scare you. Believe me if I was, you'd be frozen with terror. You need to be prepared for any and everything." He assured her. She smiled sadly.

"It's funny; I don't think I've ever even heard of things like this. But you," she turned to face him, "you seem like you know a lot. What exactly do you do for a living?"

Naru dry swallowed, "Let's just say I've had past experience with law enforcement." He said vaguely.

Mai raised a thin brow at him, "Past experience? Like you worked for them?"

Naru crossed his arms, "I suppose you could say that. Either way I'm making a career shift. But I needed some time to figure out what I wanted to do; hence my being here in New York."

Mai shrugged, "Whatever you say Naru." She pulled a sheet free from the stack, "Alright, here's the first clue."

Lin sighed, "I've told you a thousand times. Noll is on leave right now, we can't just haul him back because you guys are too lazy to do actual police work." The others in the office just kept complaining. Lin scrunched his brow and sighed again.

"Look, I told you that he's on leave. And even if I wanted to bring him back I couldn't. When Noll wants to be alone he'll completely shut everything down and focus on his solitude. I don't even know where he is." A lie, but it was necessary to get the lazy people in the division to do the work they were paid for.

"If you want to find him, go ask the director because I know absolutely nothing about his whereabouts."

When they were all gone Lin looked at his answering machine and sighed. He'd lied when he said that he didn't know where Noll had gone, but that didn't mean he was lying when he said that he'd shut off everybody. Didn't matter though, as long as Noll stayed with John at the parish he was safe. Then again, Noll always had trouble listening to authority other than his own.

Mai groaned in frustration and slammed against the back of the couch. "I just don't get this." She complained.

Naru looked at her before shifting his gaze to the paper with the clue written on it. "Let me see the other ones." He said looking over to catch Mai's gaze locked on his profile.

Mai was a little distracted by the seriousness in his deep blue eyes. "Huh? Oh, sure." She replied shaking her head before getting the rest of the stack out of the envelope from her bag. "here." She said handing it to him.

Naru took the papers and looked over them. Mai took the opportunity to slide a little ways down the couch so she wasn't as close to him as she probably should have been to work on the clue. However, something about the way he'd looked in her eyes put Mai outside of her comfort zone. And she wasn't entirely sure it was a bad thing.

"Was this it?" he asked as he looked over everything, it was all Mai had told him about; rules ultimatum, and instructions on where he could be found and how he could be convinced. Nothing at all pointed to who was behind this. Yet still, he looked the contents over and over again for any kind of clue.

"Oh, I suppose it isn't as much to go on as I first thought." Mai said dejectedly.

"Well, I wouldn't say that." Naru replied, "It's just less than I had hoped it would be; that's all."

"Oh."

Naru looked at the girl and shook his head.

"So basically we're going on an all-day scavenger hunt for a person we don't even know." He started.

"Right." Mai followed

"And we need to do this to ensure the safety of your parents, my cousin, and you." He finished.

"Okay." Mai agreed.

"In the meantime, I'd like to figure out who's behind this." Naru said launching into a trail of thought.

"You do what you want with that." Mai said, "Right now the thing that matters most to me is getting my parents back."

Naru felt slight apathy for the girl, true his own family wasn't extensive and that did make his cousin a top priority, but Mai had stated earlier that she'd lost her birth parents when she was little. The people who'd been kidnapped had taken her in and raised her as their own. Naru thought it would tear the poor girl apart to lose her parents twice, so he was resolved not to let it happen. Okay, that was weird, so rather than try to figure out why his feelings were deciding to take control at a time like this, he decided on deciphering the first clue.

"Well if we want to do that we should start on the first clue." He told her drily.

"You can do it; I've never been good at riddles. Even the simplest of them stump me." Mai admitted.

"Then we'll solve it together." Naru insisted, "Though if simple riddles stump you I have to wonder what level your intelligence lies on."

"Hey!" Mai cried in indifference.

Naru ignored her and studied the clue.

Ready to start our fun little game?

Ready to put it all On the Line?

On the thirteenth floor

That's far from home

The first command you'll find

"What?" Mai blinked, "This makes no sense."

"Take it apart piece by piece." Naru ordered.

"How? We've got nothing to go on here!" Mai lamented.

"Hmm, I don't believe so." Naru mused.

"Oh? Care to let me in on it?" Mai asked sarcastically.

"You said it before, it's a scavenger hunt." Naru said, "But the prizes we seem to be competing for are the lives of our loved ones. Have you heard of such a thing before? Doesn't the setup seem familiar?"

"It might be. To me it sounds like more of an ultimate game." She paused as something dawned on her. Naru was pleased at how fast her mind seemed to be working. "Wait a minute, I have heard of this before." She exclaimed.

"Where?" he asked just to be sure they were on the same page.

"I read a short story once; I think it was called the most dangerous game. Anyways, the main character Rainsford was shipwrecked on a place called Ship Trap Island. It was owned by a man named Zaroff. Anyways, Rainsford had to run because Zaroff…" she trailed off for a moment, "was hunting humans."

Naru blinked, that wasn't really the direction he thought she'd go in but it was very similar to the situation they were in now.

"You have reason to believe we're being hunted?" he asked slowly.

"No reason to believe we're not." Mai countered. "But if we are being hunted, I have to admit I'm a little scared."

Naru studied the first clue again. Something didn't add up.

"I don't think that this is the actual first clue." He said as his eyes scanned it for what seemed like the hundredth time.

"Why not?" Mai asked.

"Because I believe we have a certain amount of time to spend on this scavenger hunt, and there's no way to tell when your package was delivered or when you found me. Therefore this has to be a starter clue that leads to the timer. And besides that, the clue said we'll get our first command when we figure out this one." Naru rationalized.

"Oh, I see." Mai said comprehension taking over her features. "So how do we get to the 'start' of the game?" she wondered aloud.

"Hmm, maybe if we had a computer…." Naru mused.

"Okay." Mai said as she pulled out the sleek black laptop from its case. She then took out a tiny card and placed in the SD slot.

"What was that?" Naru asked as Mai started and logged on her computer.

"An air card. Gives me internet access any and everywhere." Mai replied as she Googled an article. "Oh Naru, look at this."

She set the computer on the coffee table in front of the couch and gestured for him to sit closer to her. Naru tried to ignore the mixed scent of earl grey and roses which were coming off her body as he sat down next to her, a little too much inside the personal space bubble.

"Five years ago," Naru looked at Mai, who was reading the article aloud with fevered interest. "Two people were found lying on the sidewalk in Hong Kong. They'd been killed sniper style. Witnesses say that the two had no previous relationship, only that they'd met earlier the same morning and seemed to be on a scavenger hunt," Mai's eyes widened.

"It appears you may be right Mai." Naru said as he read the article for himself.

"You know I believe that may be the first time you've ever admitted that someone other than you was right about something Naru." Mai said with a grin.

Naru brushed it off, "Let's get back to the clue." He said irritably.

"Very well, but we still need to figure out what it means." Mai said.

"Look carefully at the lines, there might be something easily missed." Naru encouraged.

"Wait, the second line sticks out. On and line are capitalized, but they're not names and they're not at the beginning of the lines." Mai pointed out.

"Very clever." Naru remarked.

"I was a student editor in college. You get good at seeing things like that quickly." She replied.

"You're still a college student?" Naru asked.

"First year grad." Mai shrugged, "Why?"

"No reason." Naru commented. "It almost seems as though they're purposely drawing attention to those two words."

"Right." Mai agreed. "Like the word in between doesn't even matter. Wait." She studied the line for a moment. "Those words combined make the word online. What we're looking for is on the internet."

"What are you doing?" Naru asked as she started typing furiously.

"Going to the thirteenth floor. It only makes sense since the way on and line were capitalized and the fact that there are never any thirteenth floors in buildings." Mai answered.

Unfortunately, the page didn't load. Mai put her arms in the "thinker" position and stared at the screen.

"What are we missing?" she mused.

"Well let's take a look at the rest of the clue and see if we can figure it out." Naru said.

"Far from home…" Mai repeated.

"Home. Where are you from?" Naru asked as he looked at her.

"I'm originally from Tokyo, but I moved here about five years ago for school. What about you?" Mai asked.

"Pretty much the same. Though I was raised in England, I moved to New York when I was around fifteen. But I moved to D.C for work." Naru replied.

"Wait; let's stick with an internet theme. So…" Mai opened a new browser. "Maybe home is homepage."

Naru looked at the NYU homepage. "Hmm, we're looking for a site that's far from your homepage and has to do with the thirteenth floor. I wonder…" he trailed off.

"What?" Mai asked.

"Let me see it for a minute." Naru said in reply. Mai slid the computer to him. Naru quickly typed in an address and hit enter. Mai gasped and Naru held his breath at the site before them.

"What is it now?" the icy voice asked in annoyance.

"The tracker has activated." The winded grunt reported.

"Good." Was all he said in reply? The lackey took it as a sign to leave.

"What took them so long?" the woman complained as she sat up and stretched.

"You wanted him involved in this game; you have no right to complain now." The voice lectured.

The woman shrugged, "True, but you can't deny that this isn't fun Urado." She giggled evily.

"It might be, but if any harm comes to the young Taniyama then my part in this whole plot is worthless." Urado growled. "If you and your personal agenda comes before the vengeance we both crave Ubusuna."

Ubusuna pouted, "You really think this is about my personal vengeance? Please, you'd want Dr. Davis dead too if you'd gone through what I did. Oliver Davis humiliated me beyond comprehension. So I want to see him writhe. I wanna see him wriggle like a worm on a hook." She hissed out.

"And this game is the perfect way I know I know." Urado brushed her off.

"Yes. I get to toy with him physically, mentally, emotionally, and psychically. Besides, Mai will be delivered straight to you and you can deal with her then." Ubusuna leered.

"You try my patience sometimes." Urado said drily.

"And yet you lecture me for making this personal." Ubusuna chided.

"You mix pleasure with business. I on the other hand, do not." Urado replied.

"It's not my fault you don't trust me." Ubusuna protested.

"True, but I only keep things that are of importance to my own survival from you. No more, no less."

"It's a clock." Mai observed looking at the screen. "We have a clock? Why?"

"It's the timer for the game." Naru said as she looked at the address he'd typed. It was Chinese rather than American proving Naru's hunch that whoever had done this to Mai knew where she was from.

"Wait, we only have one day to do this?" she asked slightly afraid.

"I'm afraid so, starting the minute we found the page." He looked at the screen pensively, "But where to go from here…"

"I can't do this." Mai said almost immediately.

Naru looked at her, "Why not?" he asked.

"I just can't okay." She snapped. "I'm just a stubbornly stupid, weak, good for nothing coward!" she cried as she drew her knees into her chest and crouched into a ball on the couch.

Naru sighed, "Mai listen to me. You may be a lot of things; stubborn, yes, weak, maybe, stupid, highly possible but I can disregard that for right now." He was stopped by an angry yet teary eyed glare from the human hedgehog. "But you should never believe that you are useless or cowardly. In fact you exude the most confidence I've ever seen a woman have."

"How so?" she asked.

"You came to find me, flipped a stranger that tried to flirt with you, and you managed to talk to me without melting or shivering in fear. I'll be the first to admit that I'm not the easiest to approach, but you did it without so much as batting an eye. Mai, facing this head on like you're trying to do takes confidence most people ever dream of having. I truly believe you can do this." Naru explained.

She still didn't look completely settled. So Naru, thinking he would regret it later, offered her something he rarely gives; a true and sincere smile. She just stared at him as he smiled at her and patted her head before rising from his position on the balls of his feet and having his features revert back to normal. Mai stared into space blankly for a few minutes.

"Mai?" Naru questioned. Mai shook her head and blinked.

"I'm okay." She assured him. "So we need to find the first command. I'm thinking there's a link on the site."

"Where?" Naru asked because the screen looked completely blank save for the clock that took up most of the site's space.

"You have to search carefully because they're hidden sometimes." Mai told him as she swept the mouse over the screen in neat lines.

When the mouse turned into a pointer Mai eagerly clicked the button.

Congrats you finally reached the start

Now here is where we begin the fun part

To save your loved ones

You have to search

Through a lot of history and dirt

Find the treasure

Buried there

Then a new window

Shall appear

Mai wrinkled her nose, "Jeez, whoever came up with these creepy rhymes needs some serious counseling."

"Agreed." Naru said, "Now, shut down the computer."

"Why?" Mai asked.

"So asks the girl who figured out we have a hunter on our tails." Naru retorted as he walked towards the kitchen.

"Oh right." Mai said with a blush, "But what are you looking for?"

"Water and snacks." Naru explained as he wrapped the bottles in plastic to keep them from leaking, "We might not always have time to stop and eat."

"Alright." Mai nodded in approval, "Just let me write everything down in case the battery dies."

Naru simply grunted in agreement and put the papers he'd gathered back in the envelope. What caught his eye was Mai's name printed across the front, but the last name clearly wasn't Matsuzaki, not even close.

"Ready?" Mai asked as she plucked the envelope from his hands and put it in the bag.

"More than ready." Naru replied as he deposited the wrapped bottles in the bag.

"Very good." She said as she eyed him. 'A little too good. Just who is this guy?'

"So do you have any idea on where we should go first?" Mai asked as he led her out of the building and onto the crowded streets.

"Nothing presently comes to mind." Naru said indifferently.

"You can be so aggravating sometimes. And I've only known you for less than an hour." Mai complained as she tried to contain the rage building up inside her.

Naru watched her trying to keep her temper in check and found it extremely amusing, not that he'd ever admit it.

"Well, have you eaten yet?" he asked. A loud groan from her stomach was his answer. "I'll take that as a no. We should have something big to eat before doing anything else." He wasn't expecting her to bop him over the head, an incredible feat in itself because he was taller than she. "What on earth was that for?" he complained.

"Now that I think I think about it, breakfast does sound like a good idea." She said as she helped him up. "And I know the perfect place to go." Mai spun on her heel and weaved through the crowds, leaving Naru to follow after her.

"And I'm the aggravating one? Hardly." Naru retorted after catching up to her.

"Please, I've been called way worse than aggravating." Mai brushed off the insult.

Naru couldn't help the mixed sting of anger and something else when he heard that.

"Oooh, looks like someone's jealous." Gene sang in Naru's head.

"Shut up Gene." Naru ordered. He was snapped out of his internal argument when Mai poked him.

"what?" he asked.

"I asked you what you thought of the next clue." Mai told him as they moved along.

It was only then Naru noticed that she'd grabbed his hand and was now leading him through the crowds much as he had done to her earlier. This knowledge caused him to notice the faint blush on her cheeks.

"I think it is something we'll be able to figure out more concisely after we've eaten." Naru replied.

Mai rolled her eyes, "Typical male," she said, "only thing you care about is food."

"Well you should know that you are far from a typical female. At least compared with every other girl I've met." He informed her and was secretly delighted when the blush on her cheeks darkened considerably.

"I don't know whether I should be flattered or insulted, possibly both." She mused back at him.

"If I were you I'd take it as a compliment." He told her.

"I'd believe it more profusely if you were a friend of mine." Mai told him. "Since we're not I'm inclined to take it either way."

"Still you should." Naru tried again, "Besides, I think I know enough about you for us to be acquaintances, pretty much friends." He replied.

"Really?" she asked.

"Yes. Your name is Mai Matsuzaki, you come from Tokyo, and you're a first year grad student at NYU." He explained.

"Well aren't you just a regular Sherlock Holmes." She retorted sarcastically. "Oh, we're here." She said before dragging him into some no-name restaurant.

He escorted her to the back of the eatery and slid into the other side of the booth. She looked at the menu tentatively before her stomach mewled in protest.

"What's wrong?" Naru asked disinterestedly as he studied his own menu.

"I just feel guilty for even thinking of food when our loved ones are who knows where in who knows what condition." Mai said with her head aimed down towards the table.

"We'll get through this." Naru assured her flatly, "I for one intend to have a working breakfast."

"You know I'd feel more comfortable with that statement if you actually spoke with emotion like most normal people do." Mai groused.

"Whatever gave you the idea that I'm normal?" he asked in response, pleased once more when Mai tried to stifle a giggle.

"What can I get for you two?" the waitress asked with her eyes more focused on Naru than on the pad she was writing on.

"Two orders of Bonnie's short stacks." Mai said quickly, "With the original syrup, and I'll have some green tea and a water. Coffee alright with you Naru? "

Naru wordlessly nodded. The waitress jotted everything down and scurried off to the kitchen.

"You like tea?" he asked.

"Yeah, being from Japan and all, I got used to having tea like my three square meals a day. Did you want some instead of coffee?" she asked.

"Coffee will do for the time being." Naru answered.

Mai thought in silence for a few minutes while Naru watched her out the corner of his eye.

"Hey Naru," she began, "what's her name?"

"Who's name?" Naru asked.

"Your cousin's. I saw the barrette from the envelope."

"Oh, her name is Kasai." He replied dully.

"Really? And how old is she?" Mai prodded.

"she just turned eight a few weeks ago." Naru answered.

Mai let out a whoosh of air, "Wow, impressive age gap."

"Just how old do you think I am?" he asked her with an eyebrow raised quizzically.

"Hmm," Mai mused, "you couldn't be much older than me. I'd say twenty-four, twenty-five maybe."

"Try twenty-two." Naru replied.

"Really? You're pretty young; I didn't think any guy could be so mature at such a young age." Mai said in awe.

"As I said before, what on earth makes you think I'm in the same class as all those normal men?" Naru asked.

Mai didn't have time to answer as their food was placed in front of them and she began to eat savagely.

"You should slow down unless you want to get sick." Naru told her as he picked up his fork and knife and began to eat the stack of fluffy pancakes set before him.

"Don't mock me." Mai said with the syrup from her meal plastered to the sides of her face. Naru thought it was kind of cute.

The waitress came back with the bill moments later. Naru picked it up and looked at it.

"Hmm, seems it's two for the price of one day." He mused.

Mai plucked the bill from him and looked at it. Sure enough, they only had to pay for one of the meals.

Mai rolled her eyes and took another bite of her stack, "Nice to know you're actually useful for something." She replied less than enthusiastically.

"Well, you are the only girl that's been able to stay in my company for more than a few minutes without melting into a puddle." Naru reminded her.

"Focus." Mai was trying to resist the urge to smack him upside the head, which was getting harder and harder to do with every word that left his mouth.

"Very well." Naru conceded.

"Hmm, it talks about finding a treasure and a new window will appear. So maybe we're looking for a key?" Mai started looking at the page she'd written the clue on.

"True, however I believe this key will be found in the real world rather than the digital one." Naru shot back.

"What makes you say that?" Mai asked.

"Why go to all the trouble of setting up this game of torment if we're not tortured in all aspects?" Naru asked her.

"You seem to be able to think like a madman with ease." Mai commented, "Are you sure your mental health is something I don't need to be worried about?"

"I am in my right mind." Naru answered quickly, "Though I'm not sure if the same can be said for you."

"Maybe the key is hidden in actual dirt. Like an archeological dig." Mai said as she pulled out her laptop.

"Possibly." Naru agreed before seeing that after tose first few savage bites, her plate was virtually untouched. "However, if you want to solve this you need to eat." He said as he took the computer from her hands.

"Naru!" Mai pouted.

"No buts Mai. Now eat." He ordered. Mai reluctantly did as she was told.

Just how many things could this girl do to make Naru feel things he'd never felt before. Said man wondered at that for all of a full minute before the name printed on the hidden side of the envelope flashed the warning bells in his mind. Cute or not, Naru wasn't completely sure he could trust this woman. Not yet at least.

"Anything yet Naru?" Mai asked with a muffled voice due to the food in her mouth.

"No, but I believe we haven't narrowed the search enough yet." Was Naru's answer.

He retyped the search adding in the word 'fun'. His eyes widened ever so slightly at the first result that came up.

"We have a winner."

hopefully things will start to make sense and i'll be able to update faster. anyways, reveiw!
