However, this particular day was a hunt for a pair of A-Ts, otherwise known as "airtrecks". Most of them all were working for, like you had stated, a team. Itsuki, Ringo, and Buccha were picking out the team's outfit (courtesy of Gonzo, the Bulls' leader), and was getting the team emblem and design over with (courtesy of Ume, Ringo's sister). Ikki had promised to come meet with both you and Akito or Agito soon. "Hmm... I'll get the..." You trailed off, trying to decide on what flavor of drink you wanted to get as your eyes slid over to the many choices you had from the menu above ,"Vanilla Swirl~!" you cheekily grinned and pointed at the "frappuchino" side of the wide menu board as you stood before the counter, smiling widely at the faint coffee smell surrounding the small coffee shop ,"What are you getting, shark-boy?" you curiously asked and glanced at the blue-headed boy next to you who received stares from girls and boys alike, the attention both Akito and Agito got weren't so much different from school. Girls awed at Akito's undeniable cuteness and bowed down to Agito's tough coolness. Who would've thought. Agito shrugged, glancing at the menu rather bitterly ,"Che, I'll get the Boss Coffe-" he cut himself abruptly, a sudden natural thought swishing into his mind - it was Akito. Ah! Agito! I want the strawberry milkshake! Please? Pretty please? With cherry on top? "F**k no! Last time you got that freakin' s**t, now it's my turn!" he darkly scowled, ignoring whatever else Akito had to say, even if he did feel quite guilty deep, deep down. However, there was only an awkward silence. You stared at Agito for a few minutes and chuckled at his softer side that was rarely shown to the public. Through those pirecing eyes and steel heart of Agito, laid a soft and mushy side like a marshmallow - well, okay, not a marshmallow, but you get the point -- he had a heart of gold. "Nah, forget about Vanilla Swirl, I'll share the strawberry milkshake with Akito and you can get your Boss Coffee! It'll work out!" you cheerfully said. So much for finally tasting each and every flavor there is, but you could come back another time. Anywho, you had an hour to kill before meeting with Itsuki. You reverted your gray eyes to the cashier, ready to order ,"We'll have a large strawberry milkshake and a medium-sized Boss Coffee." you ordered, you weren't sure how much Agito could drink, so you went with medium. With the strawberry milkshake, you were sharing with Akito, so that would probably be an even fifty-fifty since it's a large-size. Once the cashier had threw the price of the drinks out, you pulled out the necessary yen out of your pocket, but your hand was soon whacked away like a fly by Agito who did not seem to approve. "My treat." You glared at his demanding voice, your eyes sliding over toward his hand that slid to his backpocket, pulling out his yen and slammed it onto the counter. "Hey, I thought you didn't have any money with you!" you mumbled in suspicion at Agito's sudden hands on money. I won't be surprised if he attacked someone to get it... You thought he didn't have any money, but maybe you were wrong. Agito simply shrugged at your demeanor ,"Not your f**kin' problem." he cooly answered, shunning you out of what was his business and his business alone. Actually, he made a bet with Itsuki not too long ago that concerned sumo-wrestling on TV; and well, Agito pretty much won hands-down that the smaller sumo-wrestler on the left would beat the crap out of the bigger sumo-wrestler on the right, and... you don't really care, do you? The teenage boy cursed under his breath while waiting for his change, it wasn't long before the drinks arrived and his change finally came along. "Hey, hey! You know, I could've paid!" you bitterly remarked, quickly grabbing an extra straw for yourself as you held the milkshake and walked alongside Agito to a table for four. Placing the strawberry milkshake on the center of the table, you continued to stare at Agito with a pout. Agito smirked at your claim and returned your glare with a smug expression ,"Is this how you f**king treat someone who paid for your drink?" You immediately closed your mouth and zipped yourself out from anything else as you occupied the seat across from Agito, waiting for him to sit comfortably whilst an evil smirk curled upon your lips. As expected, Agito sat down, putting his drink on the table and blankly gaped at his coffee. WHAM! Agito released a growl at you, rubbing his sore foot that you have purposely stomped on. Fires flared in both of your eyes as he kicked your shin for a little vengeance. You grimaced only slightly, narrowing your eyes and swooped in with your foot, but he dodged it by picking up his legs. You picked up your legs as well, positioning yourself awkwardly on the chair with your knees up to your chin ,"It's on..." You admitted you were both immature, and not to point fingers, but Agito was the one who usually started it. Still this wasn't over, yet. "F**K!" Agito scoffed in mockery, doubting that you, out of all people, would be able to beat him, the person who swallows blood for food (no, not really..) ,,"Bring it, girl!" Unfortunately, his proud and arrogant atmosphere was soon disturbed by a squeal that churned in his mind. Dang, it was no duh at who it was. Ah! I want to drink the strawberry milkshake, Agito! "Not now! Can't you see I'm..." B-But... A-Agito... His ears perked; was that a small whimper he heard in the back of his mind? Agito roughly grunted, placing his finger on his eye-patch as his eye met yours ,"This ain't over, yet." he spoke before switching his eye-patch to the other side. You almost cracked up laughing when Agito willingly swapped over to Akito. With these two, you never got bored. You were poppd out of your thoughts when you missed what Akito had just said, a lost and puzzled "huh" clouding your thoughts at the innocent boy in front of you who drank the milkshake from his own straw care-freely. It was always amusing to see Akito bright and happy. It felt weird whenever you and Agito were on a heated battle that Akito would come out wantingly and cool things off between you guys. "Uh, can you please repeat that? I... I didn't really catch that." you muttered out, leaning against the table to listen clearly. "It's like we're on a date, ne? Ne, Niji?" Akito repeated, a timid, but joyous look on his face as he cupped his mouth in a meek giggle. Honestly, sometimes Akito was just blunt, but cute at the same time. He gently nudged the milkshake over to you, taking time to share the drink. You nearly fell off your seat as you heard that, surprised to hear it coming from that boy and slowly nodded, not sure if you would agree with him ,"Yeah! I guess so, but... it looks more like a war between Agito and me, if you know what I mean." you said in a matter-of-fact tone, slightly agitated all of a sudden. You couldn't see Agito dating anyone, especially you. Besides... you guys were friends, right? And only FRIENDS at that point. Wait, you almost forgot that there were two completely different guys in one body in front of you. Your stomach had somewhat tightened and knotted, making you slightly nauseous. Your face reddened a little, a bit star-strucken at why Akito would bring it up. You leaned in to take a gulp at the drink, unaware that Akito was also drinking it... at the same time. You didn't notice until your eyes lifted up, only to meet Akito's one eye. You tried hard not to make any sudden noise as people began to stare oddly at the "couple" - which happened to be the both of you. Akito was strangely forward at times, and you always had a feeling that he might come into your room and sleep with you; not that you would mind, but... To be honest, you saw Akito as a little child, but that whole view seemed to change when he would swap his eye-patch to Agito. You pulled away from the straw, only to notice Akito's somewhat upset face. "Najika," called Akito, his chin resting on his hands, a pouty look on him ,"... don't you lik-" Poor Akito, he was soon cut off as someone entered the conversation. It was kind of funny to see how Akito was never able to finish his sentences, but you were kind of curious at what he was to say. "What're you guys doin?" a certain crow-boy smiled, throwing a suspicious glare that practically read 'you-didn't-throw-the-moves-on-Najika-,-did-you-?' at Akito whom stared innocently back at the taller man ,"Didn't wait too long, right?" he asked, sitting on the empty chair next to you with a proud expression on his face ,"We almost have everything ready! We just need to have the team design to be printed on the uniform and the emblem made!" Itsuki remarked rather anxiously and turned his full attention to you almost suddenly. You vacantly stared at him, oblivious that all the attention was stumped on you. "You'll join, right?" You paused, surprised he had even asked you. You were aware of the fact that Akito was already going to join the team because Itsuki had saved him from the second encounter with Kaito a week ago in the walk to school, and Akito wanted to re-pay the debt because he liked Itsuki, and had nothing to do except to hang around with Itsuki's "going-to-be-made" team. You averted your gaze to Akito and then back to Ikki who looked to have high hopes that you would say "yes". You honestly didn't know what to say, you were wordless. But thoughts of your assigned duty back in the G-force held you back. Yeah! It was okay to accept; that is, your job was an "off" and "on" kind of thing. "Sure." "Yeah! Sure! I'll join!" you bluntly responded; this time, you were more sure of yourself as you straightened your back, your fists pumped in the air with energy. Although, you nearly bounced back into a slouched position when Akito attacked you with a glomp from across the table ,"... but I'll need to get some A-Ts and practice, y' know. I-I wouldn't want to let you down, Ikki." you forced a smile, your cheek being squeezed against the bubbly Akito's. At first, Itsuki was delighted to hear, but his face scrunched up when Akito hugged you tightly ,"Yeah, but that's what I'm here for, right? To help you pick some airtrecks!" he grunted, flicking Akito off of you in a threatening manner with one fist in the air, eye-level, to show that he really meant it. Turning to you, Itsuki returned back to his up-beated self ,"Let's go, once you get your A-Ts, we'll be a team by then!" You lowered your head, the blood rushing to your cheeks. Akito turned to you while being pulled by the ear by Itsuki, his expression turning slightly solemn to see your state.
A few days after Akito was rescued from his older brother, everyone worked hard for money to reach their goal - a team.
You were aware of the fact that Itsuki and Akito were coming along, but you had some unexpected company, too, from which you had forgotten - Agito. You had learned Itsuki's friends' names in those few days - Kazu, he was a funny guy, you got along with him pretty well; Onigiri, he was pretty much scary, but he was a nice... if you look past his pervy nature; Buccha, he was almost like a brother-figure to you, he would pull you back whenever you were going to cross streets full of speeding cars without noticing. Then, there were those two other girls besides Ringo - Emily, she had some scary expressions whenever you talked to Kazu; Yayoi, she was the "normal" one of the bunch, if you may say.
Agito sighed in defeat, regretting to do whatever he was going to do ,"F**k. Whatever, give me the strawberry milkshake."
YAY! Thank you SO much, Agito~!
"B-But..! Hey! I suggested to get some drinks fi-"
"MY treat!"
Well, in this case, he decided to pay for the drinks, even if you persisted to pay for it instead. Fine, fine, the thought made it look like as if you were the bad guy.
You grabbed the cold liquid drink and stuck the extra straw in, sipping it, practically declaring a challenge to your foe by the look you had given him after you had set the drink back in the center ,"You versus me, in a drinking contest, sharkie!"
Great, now it brought back memories of how Akira would act like such a big dork while hanging out with you two. Cha, the memory of Akira sticking up two straws up his nose always made you smile while Agito embrrassed, but you guys always stook together, through thick and thin. You turned your head to the empty seat next to you where Akira had usually sat and deeply sighed, a faint smile over your face.
What was wrong now? Akito could be sensitive.
Itsuki. You were right about him. He was slowly filling up that empty spot in your heart, taking Akira's place.
... but not fully.
"What?"
"You'll join? My team?"
Yet... it wouldn't hurt, yeah? Not when you were...
When you are needed, then you'll be needed, if you aren't, then you aren't.
But then again, it felt wrong...
"What?"
SNAP OUT OF IT, NAJIKA! It's just Ikki... but... he reminds me so much of...
But the thing that got you most was 'team', and teams consisted of friends. That must've meant that Ikki considered you as a 'friend', too, right? You were happy.
Najika...
"Don't you think I should get this one?" you curiously asked the two boys behind you as you pointed at the window, a pair of black & white airtrecks being shown within the display case. All you could hear from Itsuki and... well, Agito, was just purely an arguement with one another. Akito had let Agito take over since Agito had more knowledge of A-T, but things weren't going as smoothly as you had planned. "Hey! HEY! Guys!" you called out, trying to catch their attention, only to be asked a question from Itsuki:
"So, HOW do you guys know each other again? I don't really see how you could stand this bagworm here!" Itsuki stubbornly proclaimed, his fingers pinching Agito's cheeks whilst Agito was tugging on Itsuki's hair. It was just an immature fight, you had presumed. For some reason, you couldn't remember how it all started - oh, yeah. Now you remembered. It all started with Itsuki's... umm... "crotch", brought up by Agito, who was irritated by the "rumored-to-be-Wind-King's" cocky and braggart attitude: "Ha! Your f**king dinky 'sausage' can't even compare to your peanut-sized brain!" was all how it had started.
Before you could answer Itsuki, Agito shot back; "F**K! Maybe if I squash your brain under my wrath, you'll f**kin' understand!" he spatted, not breaking any of his deadly eye-contact with the taller teenager. Well, you couldn't say anything against Agito's bad mood, he didn't get to drink his 'Boss Coffee' that was left back in the small coffee shop.
"Fine, I'll just go and ask someone else's opinion..." you half-heartedly mumbled, turning away from the bickering two and randomly grabbed just anyone from out of the streets ,"Can you help me with something? I need some help in choosing some... air... trecks..." you trailed off right then and there, your eyes barely meeting the stranger that you had accidentally caught from the streets ,"You're..." you mumbled at the familiar face, noting that the stranger had two other buddies with him.
The manly stranger smirked ,"Yeah, it's us." he arrogantly spoke, a black-eye in his right-eye ,"I see you want another round of the chase, eh?" Smirking widely, he turned to his other wolf-ish friends ,"Looks like we didn't have to come to this chick, all we had to do was let her come creeping back to us for more. What. a. surprise." the man cackled. Before you could even release your hand on that guy, he grabbed your arm and pulled you close to him.
Just as you thought - the group consisted of the same (but less) people who chased you down two weeks ago (it was easy to note because they each had a tattoo imprinted on their necks), and then after that - Itsuki, Kazu, and Onigiri took care of them, you thought they would have learned their lesson after that beat-up. "Shut up." you growled at them and attempted to pull away, but the man's hold was a bit too rough ,"Let go of me!" you inquired, glaring at the man's two other buddies that licked their lips in a wolf-ish behavior.
It was hard to believe that Itsuki and Agito had not noticed until you voiced out a horrific scream when the man threw you over his shoulders, preparing to leave to who knows where.
Swiftly, your two friends turned around, finally breaking eye-contact, surprised at what you had suddenly gotten yourself into.
"Ugh!" you groaned, biting your lower lip while debating what to do before you scowled ,"I'm over with this!" Pissed at the situation you were found in, you fixed your fingers on the neck of the man who carried you and pressed hard on the sensitive spot of the human body. It wasn't long before the man moaned in pain and dropped onto the floor, unconscious. There was a bad side to that, though - you were over his shoulders, and when he fell...- he fell on top of you. Unluckily, you had forgotten that the man had two friends along, too. And boy, did you have it deep.
"How dare you do that to our captain, we'll-" the second-hand man was abruptly cut off when Agito elbowed him sharply across the head, causing the man to black-out once in contact.
Itsuki took care of the other man with a slug across the cheek and a kick to the side, throwing him to a narrow alley-way. Crow-boy rubbed his left shoulder, circling his shoulder ,"Oi, Najika-chan! What's up?"
"Che," spoke the least bit happy Agito, crossing his arms with a solid frown ,"... stop f**king off!"
"Yeah, yeah, I'll thank you guys right after you get this sack of beans off of me!" you deeply grunted, trying to push off the heavy man off of you, but you were unsuccessful as both Agito and Ikki lugged the man off of you, throwing him off to the side along with the other two unconscious men. You gratefully grabbed Itsuki's hand that was soon offered to you and was pulled up to your feet in no time ,"Thanks... Ikki." you emphasized "Ikki" as you glanced at Agito who only scoffed at you and glanced to the side in annoyance.
You took a peek at what Itsuki and Agito did to the other two men; compared to what you did to the men's "boss", they had it rough. You were all about pressure points and sensitive spots in the G-force, you studied all about it when you were just plain bored. Agito knew of this, of course, since he would make rude comments about your "boring books" about weak-points - and that was when he would make an attempt to force an A-T on you. Ah, whatever, that was why you were here in the first place - to get airtrecks.
"Oh! So, like I was saying, I was wondering if these pair of airtrecks will-" you were suddenly discontinnued when Itsuki decided to hold your right hand, you blinked, confused at why he was doing this.
Itsuki scratched his raven hair and smirked at you ,"Well, we don't want you to get kidnapped in these kind of streets." he gestured over to the many people passing by, especially to the many stormriders with dirty looks among them. Yet, you didn't know that he was just making some lame excuse to hold your hand.
Agito fumed at this, but he hid it and glared at Ikki. Suddenly, he slammed his fist against Itsuki's face in irritation and pulled onto Itsuki's collar before he could fly off because of the force of the blowing punch ,"She can handle herself! F**k! F**k! F**k! She doesn't need any s**t-head stickin' to her!" he growled out, releasing crow-boy's collar violently before shrugging off.
Surprised by the punch he had received, Itsuki leaned against Agito, gaping down at him thanks to his advantageous tall height ,"Oh, yeah? Maybe you should tell that to your buddy Akito!"
The blue-haired teenager shot his eye back at Ikki, a sadistic, forced smile forming on his lips and sneered ,"Say that again, and I'll tear your f**king eyes out of your s**t-face."
Sighing deeply, you brushed past the two quarreling boys, going unnoticed as you entered the A-T store. As you entered the store, you had already set your eyes on a pair of A-Ts, and you wanted it. You stepped up to the counter, smiling widely at the manager. The manager seemed baffled that a kid like you weren't accompanied by a parent, and didn't think you had enough money, but he kept an eye on you just incase. Just when the manager was about to shoo you off, you began ,"I'll get the newest model, the one out in the display case, and I'll buy these parts, too." you ordered, pointing at the items you wanted - it all calculated to a very expensive price, but that wasn't really that big of a deal since you had already expected this.
You earned a good pay by working in the "WIND" G-force, and you loved your job no matter how tough it was - the challenge was what kept you going.
The manager snickered a bit, calling out the price to see your reaction.
"145, 000 yen, ne?" you assured, flipping out your checkbook and put the necessary amount, then your signature. You handed the check the manager and pulled out your I.D., noting that he wouldn't believe you till you showed it to him. With a somewhat grimacing look, the manager hesitantly gave you your A-Ts and equipment. Well, what do you know, you didn't need to bring Itsuki and Agito (then again, Akito would have followed, anyways) along with you. As you held onto the bag of your A-T, you became somewhat uneasy and hugged it tightly, your eyes reading in accomplishment, unaware that the cashier stared at you oddly. You weren't surprised, you were a fully-loaded teenager.
Finally...
You may be able to reach the sky, even though it may take some practice and long hours of training to get there.
I want to cross that rainbow...
You grinned cheerfully to yourself and giggled as you jogged out of the shop. but nearly fell over when a small metal object fell out of your pocket ,"Crud." you murmured and glanced around before you bent down to pick up the thin item, quickly shoving the shiny object into your pocket wearily. Your gray eyes simply darkened, your fingers digging into the box inside the bag in fear. No, I can't go back... not now. You shut your eyes tight and bit your lower lip, a line of trembling thoughts entering in and out.
Everyone has some kind of history behind them.
That's what you believed, and that was what interested you in other people and things in life.
Shaking your head, you turned to your two (still) arguing friends ,"Hey! Hey! I got A-Ts!" you exclaimed and giggled again at your completed goal. Both Agito and Itsuki shot their attention to you, the word 'A-T' seemed to capture their attention the most. It wasn't long before Itsuki had came over to you, eyeing the bag which held your soon-to-wear airtrecks anxiously.
"What model is it? Let me see!" cried Itsuki, a cheeky grin filling up his entire face, but his hopeful atmosphere was soon shot down when you shook your head, flat-out rejecting him.
"You'll have to wait and see, Ikki!" you coyly stated and shifted the bag to the side to keep crow-boy from snooping. You turned away and began to leave without a sound, leaving a clueless Itsuki and a lost Agito behind. Agito was the last to follow when he gave a hard kick to the man that you have knocked out.
With nothing more to do, Agito had flipped his eye-patch over to Akito who had soon attacked you with a grip around your arm.
"Wait- what?" you stiffened, holding onto your cellphone tightly ,"... you mean... a group of stormriders were injured in a cemetery? And... they have tattoos on their necks?" you whispered, a flash of that man and his two comrades who tried to kidnap you from before the day ,"... Okay, thank you for telling me, so I guess that is one stormrider team out of that 'wanted' list, huh?" You grabbed a silver & black pen from across the desk and chewed the top ,"I'm assuming Kaito-sensei had already put them in the slammers?"
"No? Oh, I see. They're in the hospital..." you sighed, pulling the pen out of your mouth and rested your chin on the desk in a slight amusement ,"... Anyways, thanks for telling me." Smiling, you said your "good-bye" and flipped the cellphone closed as you leaned against your chair in thought, your eyes sliding over to the corner of your eyes. Dislocation of the joints... you dryly thought and slouched back, tossing the cellphone on the bed as you grabbed a screw-driver and began to unscrew a nail.
It was often when someone from the G-force would call you about a case that is active or inactive, or something that had happened. You looked over your shoulders, files of criminal stormriders and cases scattered all over the bed and floor. I'll have to clean that up soon... Putting a nail inbetween your teeth, you took out your A-Ts wheels and tossed it aside before putting a better wheel in; you repeated the process with another wheel as you took the nail from your mouth.
It was just about to hit six at night, and dinner would be starting an hour from now.
All of this. It was just how you imagined it to be. Like a "home" at the Noyamano family.
You pushed yourself away from the desk and rolled over to your bed on your rolling-chair and grabbed your laptop, flipping it open as you swooshed back to the desk and set it on the table. Turning the laptop on, you connected a wire to the heels of your A-Ts and smiled, studying the speed, balance, lightness, acceleration, and strength of your A-Ts. It was simple. Perfect. you thought, you knew your limits and you wanted to surpass those limits and give it all a 110%.
Closing your laptop and detaching the wire, you threw your laptop to the bed (Gee, you don't really take care of your stuff, eh?) and grasped your customized airtrecks tightly, but pricked your thumb, letting it to bleed a little. "At least I'm done..." you told yourself, sliding on the chair across the room and picked up three thin sheets of papers from your bed and took a quick glimpse at it before throwing it back to the bed.
Your gray eyes slowly averted to the floor, noting the small, gray note on the floor. Your foot pushed the edge of the edge, letting yourself slide toward the gray note. Picking up the gray note, you teared it to pieces, really small pieces, so that it would be impossible to put back together. You jumped from the chair and onto your bed as you neared to the open window next to your bed and lifted your palm in the air, letting the small pieces fly off with the wind.
You stiffened when the door opened;
"Niji? Ikki-kun told me to get you for dinner." was what Akito had said as he stepped in your room, a small smile planted on his face ,"What'cha lookin' at?"
You didn't look at him, you just continued to stare out at nothing; but you had to make an excuse... right?
"It's hard to find stars now..." you honestly remarked, flicking your index finger up as you made space for Akito to come look.
Akito leaned against the window and rested his head against yours ,"Yeah, but under all that darkness, the stars are still there." he glanced at you for a moment and laughed as he lifted his eye up once more ,"... Niji, you changed..."
"How?" you softly asked, resting your arm on the window plate. You thought you remained the same throughout those years, but... that wasn't possible since everyone goes through that kind of process ,"Am I really different?"
"YUP!" Akito energetically spoke ,"... you are prettier!"
You froze. Okay, Akito thought of something else, and you went the other way. However, you chuckled and playfully pushed Akito to the side ,"You almost scared me there for a moment." you murmured, and tilted your thumb to see the still-drying blood.
"What do you mea- AH! Niji! NIJI! You're bleeding!" Akito screeched in horror, flapping his arms around, not knowing what to do ,"WHA! WHA! WHA! NIJI!" Then, he faltered a bit, a worried look flondering his face as he pulled his arms down ,"Najika," the older boy whispered ,"... when Udou-kun (Akira) left, you don't talk to me as much. Did I do something wrong?" he quietly murmured, a saddened expression mixing with his concern for you.
You brought your bleeding thumb up to your lips, licking the blood away and forced a smile ,"No, it's not you." ... there's so much more to it...
Out of nowhere, the shorter boy threw his arms around you, causing you to fall on your back on top of your bed. You were under his body. A few minutes passed by, and he still wouldn't let go of you. Tears started to well up in your eyes, your heart pounding insanely at what was going on. Honestly, you knew you were different from before. Back then, you didn't know anything, you were innocent and pure, just like a bird; and now, you felt dirty and useless.
"Akito," you gulped at the tight hug as you tapped his back lightly ,"... it hurts."
"What. the. h*ll?" a voice emitting from out the door called out ,"I told you to get Najika-chan to eat, and THIS is what you've been doing ALL along?!" Ikki scolded as he walked in on the scene, but paused when he saw your finished airtrecks ,"WHOA! Did you customize it yourself?" he brushed his fingers against your A-Ts in amazement and blinked at the wheels that looked slightly burned around the edges, but what allured his attention the most was:
"'Reaper 00'?"
Your gray eyes suddenly dialated as Akito lifted his weight from you and turned his attention to Ikki. Oh, no... he's going to find out! Ugh, I forgot to take that wheel out... you jumped off the bed, but was stopped again by Itsuki's voice.
"Wait! Wait! Do you mean 'Reaper 00' is the brand of these wheels? Strange, I never heard of it before, but y' know, the quality looks pretty awesome." Itsuki commented, poking the wheels with a grin. However, Akito didn't seem as apalled as Itsuki, he seemed to be quite... observant in the flesh.
But that was the least of your worries when your cellphone rang...
It was Kaito, Akito's older brother, and leader of the G-force.
Don't be afraid...
Thank you for reading! I hope you enjoyed it!
So far, things are getting kind of twisted for Najika (or "you"); it seems as if there are more to you than others have thought. What exactly are you hiding from everyone? Exactly, is there a reason why Kaito is calling you? Will things change once things start to unfold in the next "Trick"? Anywho, it's going to be the debut of "TEAM KOGARASUMARU"! So, look up!
