Chapter 12: Xana's Back
"Xana's back!" She screamed, Jeremie and Aelita looked at her curiously.
"What? Xana's not back, you must be sick Yumi," Jeremie said feeling her head.
"I'm not sick! I saw what the police were doing to Ulrich, and on top of that Xana possessed ULrich and raped me last night," she replied swatting his hand out her face.
"Who? Ulrich raped you?" Jason asked angrily.
"No, we have to go to Mikala Mall where Xana is now," Yumi answered.
"How do we know that it's not a regular robbery?" Ami asked curiously.
"Turn the tv on," Yumi said grabbing the remote and turning on the tv, she could see ploice cars surrounding the mall through a news chopper.
"Police are now starting to enter the mall and they have described the robber as a 6 foot 3 male, with brown cropped hair and supposily German. I have just got information that S.W.O.T team has moved in, they are ordered to shoot and possibly kill the criminal if he's armed," the reporter announced in Japanese thanks to Ami, Jason and Yumi translating.
"That's imppossible, you saw Ulrich get locked in the holding cell right Yumi?" Ami asked.
"Yep, I told you he was with with me last night," she answered looking back at the screen. Then a picture came up showing a person who looked exactly like Ulrich, and he was staring at the camera and the xana sign showed up on his forehead.
"That is creepy, but besides that what are we going to do about the real Ulrich that's at the station?" Odd asked.
"We have to break him out, we can't defeat Xana without him," Aelita answered.
"That's not possible, Japanese holding cells have electronic locks that require ID cards from the officers," Jason added in.
"You mean this card?" Odd asked holding up a card.
"Where did you get this Odd?" Ami asked, she looked at the card and noticed that it was a picture of the officer that was here earlier.
"Let's just say Kurama and Botan are not called foxes for nothing," Odd said petting one on his lap while the other was laying on his head.
"I have been just told that shots have been fired and the police retreating to cover. The figure doesn't seem to be normal, we're going down to the scene to see what's going on. You're up Haiko," the reporter announced to the reporter on the ground.
"Arigato, now it seems that this person is not a normal human. Some of the officers are starting to believe that our country is being punished because of 5 people who are at a relative's residence right now. Let's see what the chief of police has to say about this, Chief?" the reporter asked, the same officer that tourtured Ulrich was who she was talking to.
"I do not beleive in all these curses and witchcraft but, I tell you right now that we have the real criminal locked up in one of our holding cells. The officers here are having slight diffilculties but they do know what they're doing, that's all I will give out," the officer answered.
"Well you heard him, I don't think there's anyone out there who can stop this evil being. This is Haiko Hishuma sighning off, back to you chopper," the reporter replied sighning off, then it showed the reporter in the chopper.
"Thank you Haiko, keep watching to see how this will end for our beloved country," the reporter said going black.
"Here's the plan, Ami and me will free Ulrich from the holding ceel while Odd, Jeremie, and Aelita will meet us at Mikala Mall. Odd will lead you there, when you get there you need to use the back door because the police won't let you through, got it?" Yumi asked.
"What about me Auntie Yumi?" Michi asked running to her mother.
"Sorry kido, it's too dangerous for you this time," Yumi answered.
"You don't need to go then mommy, you can stay here and all of us could move to France and start a new life," Michi said crying. Yumi knew that Ami's heart was breaking from this because she kept trying to wipe her tears away.
"It's not that simple Michi, I need you to stay here and protect Auntie Sakura. Can you do that for me?" Ami asked with a cracked voice.
"No! You are everything to me and if you die then I might as well die too," Michi said crying harder.
"Don't say that! If I die then I will have to take this evil with me, but you still have a whole life ahead of you," Ami said finally letting her tears fall.
"I love you mommy with all my heart, and if you don't come back then I promise that I will be the best cousin ever," Michi said hugging her mother.
"I know, goodbye my sweet daughter and take care," Ami said letting her daughter go, she ran outside with everyone behind her except Michi who was held back by Jason. When they get to the garage Odd took Jeremie and Aelita in his pickup truck while Ami took Yumi in hers.
