I stared terrified at the text and quickly glanced over the number, it's name that could be read over the number only said two letters. G and F.

My hands trembled as I remembered that dark, cold night. I closed my eyes and told myself to calm down.

I stood up and everyone looked up expectantly, I took a deep breath and called to them."I have just been informed that Glistle Fang, former Leader of the White-Fangs, has been released from prison!"

Several gasps and many more growls filled the room. I felt the emptiness of my eye socket. Takeshi looked away, a scowl drawn on his face; Shizuoka's eyes were filled with so much anger it was unbelievable.

Hotaru's fists were clenched; Tasuo's teeth were gritting together; Tsuneo's arms were folded an angry expressed painted on his face.

My phone buzzed again this time it said,'I'm going to kill you!'

I closed my eyes slowly."Glistle may have been released, but we have more members than ever in Red-Blood."

"We've never actually fought against him!" A female named, Sunny exclaimed.

"Oh, but we have!" Amaya's voice rose."With the very first ten members!"

"That's true!" I half smiled at Amaya and looked at Sunny."That battle actually took place last year, this very night."

"That's when Aol was killed! Right?" Tsuneo called out.

"Yes, also we all took a oath?" Shizuoka said."To fight when the time was right?"

"That's right!" I nodded."Thats why those ten people still stand before me."

Shizuoka and Takeshi along with the other eight nodded their praise with excited eyes.

Sunny looked confused."You and ten other members fought against a Color Gang with more than TwoHundred members?!"

"Am I crazy?" I asked her."Cause I'm going to say, You Just Challenged Me!"

She trembled like a leaf in fall."Of course not!" Sunny's eyes widened.

"Better not!" Takeshi looked her in the eye."But, you would know better. Right?" He looked at me.

"Yes, I taught somebody a good lesson for challenging my Leadership."

"Wasn't that Fiery?" Somebody asked.

"Yes."

Whispers once again swept over the room, but began to shush as I looked around the room with a glare."But, Fiery's gone now. He ran like a cheetah after I left him within a inch of his life."

They laughed. Although, I couldn't. I was too worried by, which my fate could end up; A fate in which, I could die; A fate in which, I could kill Glistle.

I was TOO worried. Everybody stopped laughing and gave a questioning look. I looked at them with a look that said,'It's nothing.'

A few still looked at me, but the rest still joked and laughed. Shizuoka hauled himself up on the platform.

"What's bothering you?" He asked.

"Nothing important." I told him.

Shizuoka raised an eyebrow at me."That's obviously a lie."

I sighed."It's Glistle."

"We can beat him!"

"No, we can't..." I looked away from him.

"He's not strong anymore! We can!"

"Do you know what prison can do to you?!" I hissed.

"No, not really. I've seen a few movies."

I face palmed."Prison makes you even more dangerous, especially when you have comrades in the same prison!"

"And you can make weapons!" Takeshi climbed up.

"That's true, there's spikes on the roof of the basement." I added.

"Oh, wait! How do you know this?" Shizuoka asked, suspicion growing in his eyes.

"I've been to jail!" I rolled my eyes at him.

"Not prison?"

"I was bailed by my brother." I soon added as he gave me another suspicious look."Before I could get to prison."

He nodded, his suspicious eyes fading into sad, disappointed eyes."I would of thought that every leader has been to prison."

"No, Splinter hasn't." I smiled, remembering the young spirited leader.

"Splinter is dumb!" Shizuoka spat.

"Splinter is smart and funny!" I realized that I jumped to Splinter's defense too quickly.

"Ohhhh! The Leader of Red-Blood likes the leader of Orange-Splinters!" Takeshi said, loud enough for only us three could hear.

Shizuoka laughed."It was bound to happen!"

"Was it bound for you to be dead?" I hissed.

"No, but can you imagine what the Gang would be called?" Shizuoka asked Takeshi.

"Like, Orange-Blood or Red-Splinters?" He laughed.

I snorted."Did this just turn into a ship?"

"I think so!" Shizuoka laughed.

I laughed with them."It's not like that! It's that we've been very good friends this past year." It was a lie, but that didn't matter.

"That makes sense." Takeshi agreed."You guys have been really good friends, even for enemies."

"You guys have been really close." Shizuoka said.

. . .

That night I was walking home alone when Splinter jumped out of a tree and landed in front of me. He didn't seem to notice me, his back faced away.

"Splinter?" I asked.

He turned toward me with panicked eyes."Crystal! W-What are you doing here?"

"I'm walking home. What are YOU doing?"

"I'm running."

"From what?"

"Glistle and his Gang." As he said that, a roar echoed through the trees.

"Splinter! Where the hell are you!"

I looked at Splinter."Sounds like Glistle went crazy."

"We have to hide!" He whispered to me.

"Up the tree!" I leaped up on a tall pine tree, I held my hand out to Splinter."Hurry up!"

Another roar, closer now; More vicious."Splinter! Oh, Splinter!"

I gave Splinter one last pleading look."Please!"

He looked behind him before reaching out and grabbing my hand, I pulled him up and we climbed higher into the tree. Just as Glistle and the other white bandana wearers burst out of the trees.

I reached into my backpack and grabbed my sword, I closed it slowly, trying to make the sound part of the wind.

Glistle's head whipped to the tree that we were in."What was that?!" He asked his Gang.

"I don't know boss." Said one.

"Do you want us to check it out?" Said the other one.

"Boss?" Said a familiar voice, I recognized it as Fuuko's. The very person who shattered and destroyed my eye.

"Go after it." Glistle growled, his blueish purple eyes glistened in the light of the full moon.

Splinter looked at me."What are we going to do?"

"Just give me a second to adjust myself."

He gave me a look."Adjust yourself?"

"I'm the best fighter in all of Tokyo City. I'm pretty sure that I can take on a crazy person."

"Don't get hurt. Okay?" Splinter gave me a look that reminded me of Takeshi and Shizuoka.

"Okay. But if I do get hurt, call Takeshi or Shizuoka." I whispered and gave him my phone."The top two numbers, one or the other stays with the Gang all the time."

He nodded."I'm going to trust you with this."

I slowly, quietly climbed down to the lowest branch; A branch that they still couldn't see me.

As the other White-Fang members walked up to the tree. They were talking quietly about something that I could barely make out.

"It's nice that Glistle came back." Said the first one.

"I heard that his son visited him in prison." Said the second one.

"Who's his son?" Asked the first one.

"I think his name was, Shizuo Heiwajima."

"You mean that teenage kid?"

"Yeah. He's really strong, it would be nice if he came to Tokyo City."

"He doesn't live here?"

"No, he lives in Ikebukero."

"That place is hell in disguise!" Whispered the second guy.

I layer down on the branch and looked at them."Hello." I said as they neared the tree trunk.

They looked up startled. I laughed."I'm pretty sure you know who I am?"

"Uh..." The first one gulped and turned to the second one."Isn't that you're old leader?"

The second guy looked up at me, his red eyes shone like freshly spilled blood."Yeah."

That's when I noticed who I was."Look who it is!" I said excitedly."The fireball that went out."

The other one laughed."The fireball that went out?!"

"Yes, yes. I almost killed him for challenging me!"

Glistle stomped over to the tree."You bastards! Who are you talking to!" Then he looked up.

"Hello!" I said."Been awhile, hasn't it?"

He growled."It has!" He tryed jumping up and grabbing me down.

As he jumped I grabbed my pocket knife and jabbed it into his arm and yanked it out, quick as a fly.

The first guy tried climbing the trunk, but as soon as he grabbed the trunk I unsheathed my sword and sliced off his hand.

He fell with a girly scream.

Glistle looked quickly at the fallen boy and growled as savagely as a wolf."How dare you touch my Color Gang!" He leaped up on the tree branch.

I heard Splinter gasp as I disappeared into the branches up above. I jumped on the branch above him and reached down. I clicked the number to Takeshi's phone.

I jumped up deeper into the tree. Glistle screeching behind me.

I finally reached the last branch that would support my weight. I looked at the lit up city, it was beautiful. But what was more beautiful was the whole of Red-Blood walking down the middle of the street.

But, the whole of White-Fangs were here also. Which also meant a Gang battle. I carefully found my way back down and ran to Takeshi.

"Why are you so late?!" I hissed at him.

"I'm sorry. It took awhile to get the weapons." Takeshi answered.

Glistle's raspy growl echoed through the pine tree and Splinter exploded out of the tree and ran to us."Glistle is bloodthirsty!" He gasped.

"Wasn't he always?" Shizuoka asked.

I turned towards the tree."If he's bloodthirsty, then we'll give him blood."

"The reddest blood of all Tokyo City." Takeshi and Shizuoka said together, glaring at the tree.

Suddenly Qrow and his Color Gang entered the park. Qrow gave me a surprised look."Young one?"

I looked at him."What? Who's that?"

"You are Spear Plasma's girl. Aren't you?"

"Yeah..?"

As he was about to answer, another Color Gang emerged; Splinter and the Orange-Splinters!

I looked across the plain and saw Glistle and his Color Gang glared at us.

This Was More Than Dangerous; It Was Deadly.
