Death Room

Fade's p.o.v.

I walked into the livingroom with Noire and over to my dad on the couch. "Hey! Where is the passports and such?" I asked him.

"Oh those? Right here." He looked up at me and pulled out our passports, tickets, and a map of the town we were going to be at. Noire sat down next to him and smiled at me. I sat down on the other side of him and looked at the map and examined the passports and tickets.

"So 96 souls? What's the story?"

"Well, don't let Noire eat all of them. She needs to eat all of them but one so chose which ones you feed her wisely and bring the left over here to me so I can get Kid to feed it to Patti or something." Lord Death looked at me.

"Oh alright. Why did you ask us instead of Kid to do the job. Wow I am so happy you have so much faith in us!"

"Awww! So cute!" He hugged me and then when he pulled away, he seemed to remember that he didn't answer my question. "OH! The story.....Well, there is this gang of kishins over there and they've been on my list for awhile now, but I waited too long to give someone this mission so they have collected a lot of human souls. I want you to take care of them and then collect the human souls and bring them back for me to protect ok?"

"SURE THING DAD! Oh and Noire you took notes on that right?"

"Yeah!" She smiled and held up a little notepad with barely legible scribbles on it.

"Remember, we have to save the human souls and give them back to dad and we can only have all but one of the red circle things. Am I missing anything?" I asked looking at my dad.

"Oh yeah! There may or may not be a witch...." He said the last part quietly.

"OH BOY A WITCH TO! NOIRE WE ARE SOOOO GOING TO END UP GRADUATING EARLY!!!!"

"Um.....YOU BETTER BE VERY CAREFUL WITH THIS ONE! IF YOU FAIL THIS MISSION, I WILL COLLECT EVERY SINGLE SOUL FROM NOIRE AND YOU ARE BACK AT SQUARE ONE!" Lord Death warned me.

"I know, Stein has taught us well. No worries daddy. Your going to be very proud of us when we come back and Noire is your new death scythe."

"Hmm? Oh that? No, she will be your personal Death Scythe. I will have her trained and everything for Spirit's job for when we both retire, but until then, after she becomes a Death Scythe, she's going to be his assistant." He laughed. "She won't be mine you see."

"Oh I get it....What would I end up doing then while she is off training....SHOP!?"

"No....I'm going to train you too.....And Noire won't be doing much and she won't be too busy so you will more than likely end up helping around the school and going on with your lives and such. I'll only call you in to help at school when we need it and Noire will help Spirit when he needs it or I say so."

"Mkay then. Come on Noire time to go catch that plane. Oh daddy, this is top secret don't tell Kid where I and Noire are going say we are off shopping."

"Alright. I don't want Kid distracting you two anyways. I won't tell him unless he blacks out and holds Liz and Patti to my head."

"I hope he don't...You're my dad...his too...that is to far extreme for us to do."

"He probably won't. He'll just be mad and probably snoop around in my study and stalk me until he finds out somehow." He waved it off.

"Well good luck. I told blue head we are going to china."

"That's the cover then?"

"Three day shopping spree in china, yep."

"Ok. I'll make sure to remember when I tell Kid after he busts the front door down."

"Don't lock the door then."

"I HAVE TOO! HE'S SO SCARY!" Lord Death cringed.

"Go spend the night with Spirit and Stein."

"THAT'S THE NEXT PLACE HE'LL LOOK! RIGHT AFTER HE CHECKS UNDER THE DESK IN MY STUDY! Plus I don't want to be in the same house with Stein and his scalpels!"

"Oh...your right. I don't want you around screw head either. So you have fun being interrogated. Don't make it easy for him or it will make it suspicious."

"I'm going to spend the night in one of the teacher lounges in DWMA.....BETTER YET MY DEATH ROOM! No one can go or leave that room without my permission! MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" He stood up.

"He obviously thought to hard about this." I say looking at Noire.

"Yes. Yes he has. Doesn't he realize he could just go to the library when it opens and send an email to Kid from there?" She shook her head.

"Welp...let's go before he begs us to stay."

"NOOOO! PLEASE STAY!" He got down on his knees and looked up at me, pouting.

"AND NOT HAVE A FREE GET OUT OF SCHOOL AND AWAY FROM THE BOYS FOR FREE CARD ALL THE WAY TO MY FAVORITE COUNTRY WITH MY FAVORITE TOWER AND FOOD? PLUS SHOPPING AND A CHANCE TO GRADUATE EARLY? No." He started crying and grabbed my hands.

"PRETTY PLEASE?"

"It is only for three days."

"Yeah, Lord Death." Noire looked at him and gave him a hug. "If Kid has too many problems, just tell him to go cuddle the bunny and he can cuddle my teddy- OH MY GOSH! FADE WE LEFT TEDDY!" Noire looked up at me with tears in her eyes.

"Noire, we gone to far. We cant turn around now."

"BUT DADDY GAVE ME THAT BEAR!"

"F-fine. I swear if we get caught.."

"THANKS FADE!" She jumped up and tackled me into a hug. Lord Death dejectedly went upstairs to his room.

"Your welcome!" I hugged her back and then stood up. "Let's go. Luckily the house is sort of on the way to the airport."

"Yay!" She laughed and ran out of the house leaving me.  I ran after her and got in on the drivers side and waited for her to get in. When she did I drove us back to the party house and parked out front. Noire got out and ran to the side of the house with her window and started climbing up it using the ivy and the pipes on the side to get up to her room and climbed into her window then came back and dropped Teddy out of it and sat down on the windowsill, shutting it behind her and transformed (into a bow to not behead her Teddy) to fall to the ground. After untransforming and picking up her bear, she ran back to the car and climbed in. "Thanks Fade!"

"No problem. Glad you didn't behead the precious bear." I drove us to the airport. After loading everything onto it and getting settled, we got ready for a long flight to Europe.

Kid's p.o.v. (Morning now.)

I woke up and stretched then sat up looking at the rabbit then grabbed my phone checking for the time. It was ten till six and I raised up out of bed going to my bathroom. I have to be at school before seven, definitely before eight. I took a shower, brushed my teeth, put on my usual outfit, done my hair, and walked off going to Noire's room. When I entered I seen her gone so I walked over to Fade's room to check. Nothing. I walked back upstairs to Black Star's room and knocked on the door. A sleepy looking Black Star poked his head out. "Oh hey Fade....Is it really time for school already? Or did the kitchen catch on fire?"

"I am not Fade, I am Kid. Is Fade not in your room or something?"

"No, I gave her free time last night. She wanted to go somewhere with Noire....for three days I believe....yeah....I dunno." He walked out of the room and shut the door behind him and leaned against it looking at me. I shook my head.

"I couldn't find those two...hmmm gone for...three...three...what?!? DAYS!" Realization hit me. "WHAT YOUR SAYING IS SHE- NO THEY ARE GONE FOR THREE DAYS! They are not somewhere in this house? NOOOOOOOOO! AND YOUR COOL WITH THIS? WHAT IF THEY MEET HOT GUYS AND FORGET ABOUT US? WHAT IF THEY GET KIDDNAPPED AGAIN OR WORSE! WHAT IF THEY DIE? WHAT THE HELL ARE THEY DOING FOR THREE DAYS ANYWAYS WITHOUT US? ARE YOU INSANE? HOW ARE YOU OKAY WITH THIS? YOU STUPID GUY! WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHH MY PRECIOUS NOIRE! ALL BECAUSE FADE WANT'S TO GO SOMEWHERE FOR THREE DAYS? WHERE ARE THEY GOING! TELL ME? I WILL FIND THEM AND THEN I WILL NEVER LET NOIRE OUT OF MY ROOM AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!! DAMN IT. Where did you say Fade is taking her?"

"I-I didn't say....Um....Fade said they were going on a three day shopping spree in China together for some girl time. I looked at it as she was mine when she came back, like completely."

"A shopping spree? You bought that?"

"Y-yeah.....Lord Death authorized it too, so they don't have to make up for school when they come back." Black Star paled a little. "AND STOP CALLING ME IDIOT!"

"I didn't call you that. I said stupid there is a difference. Obviously you were stupid enough to buy that lie Fade told. Fade don't just leave for three days on a shopping spree, she always comes back at the end of the day. She uses that excuse to get out of everything."

"Well, it could be a shopping spree. It could take one day to get to China, one day to shop, and one day to come back. See? Three days. I want to believe it so I do."

"My Dad would not approve of this on a week day. She skipped so much school days I don't think she would be allowed on something like that until the weekend. Why wouldn't she tell me anyways about it? If it was real?"

"Because you probably would have locked up Noire if she told you this and she wouldn't be able to get her hands on her. I wouldn't tell you if I was trying to take Noire somewhere for more than a day." He muttered.

"I wouldn't lock her up, I would just follow them to China." I shrugged it off. "C'mon we are going to China."

"Whoa....What? I'm failing class, I can't. TSUBAKI!" He ran down the stairs, leaving me behind.

"Fine I will go by myself. First I need to pay papa a visit." I shrugged and then walked down to my car. When I arrived at my dad's house I checked every room for him. "Nothing?" I smirked. "DWMA." I ran off to my car and drove to the school and ran up to the Death room. I bet dad is here because school is about to start. I knocked on the door. "OH PAPA!!!!!! GUESS WHAT!!!! I FOUND YOU!"

"OH MY GOD NOT YOU!" I heard him shout on the other side of the door, sounding scared. My phone buzzed in my pocket so I took it out to see it was from Noire.

Noire: Gone for a while. See you when I get back mister.

I knocked on the door again. "HEY DADDY LET ME IN! I NEED TO TELL YA SOMETHIN!"

"NEVER!" I heard his footsteps retreat from the door.

"I will come in anyways." I tried opening the door. Spirit walked up.

"Oh hey there Kiddo. What's going on? HEY LORD DEATH? I'M HERE! SORRY I'M A LITTLE LATE! STEIN ALMOST DIDN'T LET ME GO!" He knocked on the door.

"SPIRIT? OH MY GOSH! COME IN, COME IN!" The door opened. I ran in and tackled my dad.

"I KNOW YOU KNOW WHERE THEY WENT! TELL ME EVERYTHING!!!!"

"NOOO! GO TO CLASS!" He tried to push me off of him from the ground. Spirit calmly walked in like nothing was going on and sat down in a chair.

"What's going on here?"

"Fade and Noire have disappeared and I have no clue where they went- BUT HE DOES!"

"LORD DEATH WHERE IS MY OTHER BABY GIRL?!" Spirit was over here in a second and leaning over me to look at Lord Death.

"TELL US!!!" I ordered.

"I'M NOT GOING TO TELL YOU ANYTHING! NOW DON'T MAKE ME BAN YOU BOTH FROM THE DEATH ROOM!" He glared up at us.

"Come on dad! It's not fair! I just got them back!!! I don't want to loose them for three days...that would suck." He got silent for a few minutes and then looked at his mirror then at me.

"Alright, alright. I'll tell you. Just get off me." I rolled off him and stood up waiting. Lord Death stood up and in one fast motion had picked me up and ran to the door setting me outside then shut the door. "LOVE YOU SON! NOW GO TO CLASS!" I paled.

"SPIRIT LET ME IN BRO!!!" I begged. Stein walked up next to me and frowned.

"What are you doing out here? Is Lord Death not accepting visitors?" There was a few crashes on the other side of the door, and then finally a shatter that reminded me of a mirror being broken.

"SPIRIT! NOW LOOK WHAT YOU'VE DONE! IF YOU HADN'T TRIED TO OPEN THE DOOR, WE WOULDN'T HAVE FOUGHT AND I WOULD STILL HAVE MY MIRROR!" Stein looked at the door sharply and then gave me a sideways glance. 

"What the hell is going on here?"

"Noire and Fade are gone and the only one that knows where they are at is dad. THEY COULD BE IN DANGER!"

"OH LORD DEATH?" Stein sung going up to the door. "CAN I SEE MY BEAUTIFUL FIANCE?"

"STEIN! HELP ME LORD DEATH IS GLARING AT ME!"

"LET ME IN PLEASE!" Stein banged on the door. "DON'T KILL MY SPIRIT!"

"Is Kid out there?" Lord Death asked and I shook my head putting a finger over my mouth.

"No. It's just me. I made him go to class." Stein responded in a normal way.

"OK!" The door flew open and I ran in before Stein could walk in. Stein walked in casually and shut the door behind him keeping his eyes on Lord Death with a smirk. Lord Death looked shocked. "You lied to me!"

"And I'm going to make you drink this." Stein pulled out a vial. "I always wanted to test this out on someone. I know it works, but I've never gotten to use this myself." He smirked and took a step towards my dad.

"What's that?" Lord Death backed up into Spirit who wrapped his arms around him and held him close.

"Truth serum." Stein shrugged and took another step towards them.

"Oh ok. Sure I will drink it." Stein stopped in shock.

"Wait what? Repeat that please."

"I SAID GET OUT OF MY DEATH ROOM!" Lord Death yelled.

"No! Tell us where the girls are! TELL WHERE FADE AND NOIRE ARE!"

"You don't want to know where Maka is?"

"No, she's in class. I just came from there. Tell us where Fade and Noire are." Stein walked up to Lord Death and took the cap off of the vial and smirked. "Or I'll force this down your throat."

"I AM SWORN UNDER SECRECY! NEVER!"

"You asked for it. Spirit, remove the mask and keep a good grip on him."

"Sure thing love!" Spirit done as told and Dad struggled to get away.

"NOOOOOOOOO!"

"HAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAA! How long will it take because I have tons of questions for him!" I said cheerfully.

"It won't take long at all for it to get all over his system." Stein informed me as he grabbed my dad's jaw and then forced his mouth open and poured the liquid down his throat and made him swallow it all. I laughed and walked up to him as Spirit let him go. Lord Death gasped and narrowed his eyes at us and fell to his knees.

"WHY! TRAITORS!"

"Traitors? More like angry parents." Stein corrected.

"Boyfriend and brother too." I smirked. "Where did they go?"

"Who?"

"Fade and Noire of course Lord Death. We repeat, where did Fade and Noire go?" Stein said as he stood next to me and Spirit stood next to Lord Death.

"What? Oh them two...yeah they went to china."

"Why are Fade and Noire in China?" Stein asked before I could say anything.

"A shopping spree of course."

"Why did you authorize this shopping spree in China?" Stein interrogated more.

"Because Fade is my cute little baby girl and she gets everything she wants."

"Any more questions Kid?" Stein looked at me frowning a little.

"How long will they be gone?" Final test question.

"Three days."

"WHAT? THREE- I'm out of here. I'll be in my class room dissecting rodents until I calm down." Stein stormed out of the room.

"Hmmm...I think Stein is mad." Lord Death said putting on his mask.

"Daddy? Can I go be with my sister and Noire to on the wonderful trip of fashion?"

"No." He said flatly and looked at me as he stood up. Spirit went back to his chair like nothing happened and pulled out a book and started reading.

"WHY NOT? WHY CANT I GET EVERYTHING I WANT TO LIKE FADE?"

"Because I don't want a certain blue head star coming in here asking to go too and Fade and Noire need some girl time instead of guy time. Plus I'm pretty sure your only reason for wanting to go is to bother them and steal Noire from Fade anyways. I'm not stupid. I was a teenage guy once too."

"Fine. I'm going anyways." I stormed out the room and off down the hall to Stein's class room and pulled Black Star out. "HEY BUDDY! YOUR GOING TO CHINA!"

"What? But what about going to sleep? Stein is dissecting rodents for some reason while muttering curses."

"Yep, he is mad." I pulled him off down the hall and to my car parked outside. "WERE GOING TO HAVE BRO TIME STALKING THE GIRLS!"

"Are we going to let our presence be known or are we going to keep our distance?"

"Keep our distance of course. Now we need to find out what town and I bet Fade put it in her diary sooooo." I summoned my sisters diary and adjusted the language to English and handed it over to him. "You find that part out."

"ALRIGHT!" He sat down in my car and started flipping through the pages then looked up at me confused. "I thought you said they were in China."

"That is what you and dad have been telling me..."

"She's in Italy....on a mission to collect 96 Kishin souls at one time...."

"WHAT! WHO'S CRAZY IDEA WAS THAT!!!!"

"Apparently it was Lord Death's idea. He told her about the mission and asked her if she wanted it. The kishins have formed a gang and are collecting tons of human souls and are very deadly from the sound of it."

"AH!" I fell over into the seat and felt weak. "What the hell is my dad thinking giving them that kind of mission?"

"Fade seems to be excited about this though. She repeatedly mentions that after this mission Noire will have all the Kishin souls she needs....OH MY GOSH THERE IS A WITCH INVOLVED KID!"

"WHAT! I've got to go get Liz and Patti right now!"

 "WHAT ABOUT MY TSUBAKI?" He looked over at me. "AM I NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO HELP SAVE HER? OR ARE YOU GOING TO MAKE ME FIGHT WITH MY SOUL WAVELENGTH?"

"UH, DUH SHE CAN COME TO!"

"GREAT!" He pulled out his phone and texted her then looked up at me. "You are acting pretty calm compared to what I thought you would do. Thanks for not crashing the car yet."

"I'm not even driving."

"Oh....Then you need to start driving after I get the girls. Stay. here." Black Star ran off using his ninja mode.

"What am I going to do with these girls and my dad? What are they suicidal or something?" I shook my head. I sighed and sunk down in the seat. "Yet now that I think about it....those two are coming quite impressive. Maybe they don't need to be interrupted on this mission. I think I will just watch over them from above and If they get into a life threatening situation then Black Star and I should make our moves as saviors. So, this should be interesting." I looked over at the stairs and thought some more. "I don't see why we should just barge in and take them away from a mission my father thought they can complete. I'll watch them and keep my dad updated so he don't kill me thinking I have gone off looking in China and suck for three days. Am I missing something?" I thought it over. "I guess not. That's what I will tell Black Star and the three girls he is dragging along with us."

"OH BUDDY! I GOT THEM!" He climbed into the passenger seat and the girls got in the back. "I also looked up the next flight for Italy. It leaves in the next two hours ok?"

"Ok, let's head back to the party house. I have a plan for what we will do."

"Ok." He smiled at me. Liz was muttering about something in the back seat and Patti was poking her face while Tsubaki listened.

"We are going to watch over them and if they are in danger we will save them. I don't think we should stop them from doing the mission because Lord Death trusts they can do it so I think I agree."

"That's a good idea. It'd be cruel to take that chance from those two. Think about how mad you would have been if Fade stopped you from going to Anubis."

"If I knew the ending of that then I would have stayed in bed." I muttered.

"She saw what happened to you so she probably won't make the same mistake with her mission." Black Star shrugged.

"They both know the consequences if they mess up on it, looks like they are ready for it since they didn't say no."

"Yup. Now, let's go be their guardian angels before they get hurt." He smirked.

 "Sure thing!" I drove us to the party house and ran up to my room and packed a bag for the three days and then walked back down to the car and put my bag inside waiting for the other four, I ordered the plane tickets and a map of the town. Once I finished I ran back inside to get my pass port I have put up in my dresser then ran back to the car seeing they were waiting for me.

"COME ON KID. WE DON'T WANT TO BE MORE THAN TWO MINUTES LATE!" Black Star shouted at me.

"Hold your horses, we will get there on time! I had to order the plane tickets and get my passport. You guys have a pass port to right?"

"I've been to France. Of course I have a passport. I believe Tsubaki came with, and yes, she has one anyways." Black Star crossed his arms. Liz mumbled something then got in the car with Patti. I got in.

"Just making sure because I don't want to be more then TWO minutes late to stalking Noire and Fade." I smirked and started the car.

"So what? Is this little trip going to make you the king of stalkers Kid? Don't tell me you are going to make stalking Noire a regular thing after this."

"I don't want another James running around."

"Soooo, 'yes Black Star. Stalking Noire is going to be my new favorite hobby. Look! I even know what ice cream she likes!' right?"

"Right mr third person." I chuckled and pulled up at the air port in no time. Black Star got out of the car and got his and Tsubaki's bags and waited on me. We boarded a plane and sat down together and I closed my eyes. "We need to get a tracking device placed into them."

"Yes. Yes we do. Get the kind that hooks up to your phone and tells you where they are on like....a little app." Black Star nodded his head.

"Like Freddy's mom did on I carly?" I asked.

"I guess....I didn't watch that as a little kid, sooo I don't really know." He shrugged. "I'm totally up for the tracking device in our girls."

"YESSSS!" I laughed.

"No, you don't want to do that. What if the enemy hacks your phone, gets their location, and attacks them?" Tsubaki said quietly. "Plus it isn't far to Noire and Fade."

"Your right." I sighed. "Still would've been fun!"

"What about a tracking bracelet? Get them one that hooks up to your phone or something and track them that way. They won't be wearing it all the time, but don't tell them what it is." Liz suggested.

"Yeah, great idea." I smirked. "Perfect idea!"

"OR THE WRINGS KID!" Patti cheered in a toddler voice.

"Oh yeah....Didn't you say the rings worked as tracking devices too?" Liz looked at me. "Just make Noire wear them all the time. She left them at the party house on her dresser."

"Fade's diary is working out pretty well as a tracking device to." I joked.

"BAD KID!" Liz gasped. "THAT'S SO WRONG! READING YOUR SISTER'S DIARY! COME ON PATTI. WE ARE LEAVING THIS GUY." Liz stormed off to another room dragging her poor sister with her.

"BYE GIRLS!" I laughed as Tsubaki ran after the two. "Well...it's just us now."

"I guess." Black Star was looking out the window at the clouds. "They are right about the rings though. You could stalk her a lot easier if you used them."

"I was starting to but then I had Noire kidnapped from me by James and so....I forgot about them."

"How about this? You could swipe Fade's rings from Noire and replace them with yours so you know where she is at all times on this trip. Then give her back Fade's rings when we get back to Death City. You just have to not get caught doing it."

"Great idea, that will make it easier on us to follow them around and such." I nodded. "How can we have them occupied so I can do that though?"

"Italy has that Leaning Tower of Pisa right? Just drop a brochure to it on their doorstep and wait for Fade to see it. She'll drag Noire to the tower and be gone from the room they are staying in and then we can break in and switch the rings."

"Great thinking." I nodded and then went over to a couch and laid down on it closing my eyes. I could use some shut eye.

Fade's p.o.v.

The plane had landed, and after we got our stuff to the hotel, we had some free time. I grabbed Noire's hand and pulled her out the hotel and into the streets. "COME ON! LET'S GET TO KNOW ITALY! Pasta sounds amazing right now!" Noire laughed at my excitement.

"Alright, alright. We can spend the rest of today exploring but tomorrow we've got to get to work....Technically we should be getting to work right now if that gang is really active in killing humans, buuuuuuut you seem really excited."

"Your right, we should get to work. Let's scope out the city while we get some food to eat. Two in one ok?" I laughed and looked around for any suspicious characters. Noire walked up to some random guy who was walking down the sidewalk with his friend.

"Excuse me sirs, do you speak English?" I ran up to be beside her.

"Yes miss I do, my friend to." The guy said and he had an Italian accent and a hot body, face, and taste in clothes.

"Do you know anything about mysterious gang activity or killings around here? We are looking for some people right now, and we need to make sure that this isn't the town that we heard have this gang that kills people, or we might find it harder to contact our friends you see." Noire made up and smiled at them.

"Hmmm did you say gang activity? Killing people. Yes there is. I seen it in the newspaper this morning. You can still find it at a newspaper stand. If you are interested in more information about the latest killings. If you are worried for your friends that might be a good place to start."

"Thank you kind sirs!" Noire smiled at them again. "Ummmm....where is the newspaper stand at?"

"We will escort you to it! We don't want pretty girls like you to get...killed or anything."

"Great!" Noire smiled again at them. "See? Italians are actually kind of nice!" She looked at me then at the two guys. "Thank you two for helping us."

"You girls are very welcome, what is your names?"

"Mine? Oh mine is Nim Waters. This is my friend Natasha Little." She gestured to me. "What is your names?"

"This is Antonio and my name is Joshua." Noire smiled at them sweetly.

"Nice to meet you two." She held out her hand to them. Joshua shook first and then Antonio did and I shook their hands afterwards and gave a slight nod. I don't know what it is but I am getting a bad vibe from these guys in my guts but I think it might be nothing.

"Have you guys been raised here your whole life?" I asked wanting to make an interesting conversation.

"Yes." Antonio smirked at me after he answered. "Where did you two come from?"

"We came from over in America." Noire smiled again and wrapped an arm around me.

"Over in Kansas. I think it is so cool you live here for so long! I love Italy." I smiled and blushed trying to act a bit clueless because I really don't think Noire and I should trust them. So if I play it clueless things might get interesting.

"So do you mind showing us to the newspaper stand now? We REALLY need to find our friends in case something happened to them." Noire bit her bottom lip.

"Sure right this way girls." They started leading us the way and I looked over at Noire. She seemed relaxed like she wasn't getting the same vibes I was getting and seemed to trust them a lot more than I did, but not enough to give them the real story and our real names. I watched the two guys carefully and kept walking. Maybe I am just paranoid. Right then and there, a hand clamped over Noire's mouth and she went limp and then I was tackled from behind as someone tried to knock me out with chloroform. I bashed my head backwards and head butted the poor guy and escaped from him and then Joshua turned around quickly and caught Noire and Antonio turned around as well, but he stopped when he saw me standing.

"Hey Phillip! You didn't get her you weakling!" He glared at the guy behind me. "After all that hard work!"

"What the hel- I KNEW IT! I KNEW I SHOULDVE WAITED UNTIL TOMORROW TO GO SCOPE AROUND! AH NO- NIM." I frowned and then decided I wasn't going to let these boys get away with touching my Noire and then tackled Antonio because I just didn't have a better idea at the moment. Antonio pushed up on me trying to get me off of him and grunted from the effort.

"Damn it! Joshua! PUT THAT DAMN GIRL DOWN AND HELP ME OUT HERE!"

"No way, this is interesting." Joshua said and I grabbed a stick by his head and started to hit his head with it.

"OW STOP THAT! DAMN THIS ONE IS FIESTY!" Antonio grabbed my wrist hard and squeezed it making it painful enough to make me drop the stick and shoved me off of him and into the very little traffic. I stood up and prepared for a fight. Good thing I have trained for this and I have meister skills. Too bad Noire cant transform when she is unconscious. Wait! look over there, it is a cane! I ran over to a old lady and took her cane.

"SORRY OLD LADY I NEED THIS I WILL RETURN IT LATER!" I yelled and then ran over to the guys. "Bring it!" I saw Noire's hand twitch and in a second she twisted around in Joshua's hold and bit his hand hard making him scream as blood dribbled down her chin and his arm. I laughed and then pointed the cane at Antonio. "LET ME SEE YOUR HANDS!"

"What are you going to do? Rap them for me being a bad boy?"

"No, I am going to cut them off in a minute." I said sarcastically.

"Jeez, girls today." Antonio looked over at the screaming Joshua and busted out laughing. "Look what's INTERESTING now." Wait a minute, one got Noire, and another was going to get me but I head butted him. There is only three guys in front of me now...Where is the other one? I turned around quickly to see the fourth about to attack me with a rag of chloroform so I ducked. Antonio rolled his eyes. "Phillip, you really suck at this job. Wait until I tell the boss."

"I cant help this girl is fa- AH!" I had kicked him where the sun don't shine and stood up as he fell over and I turned around to face Antonio. Well, Phillip is going to be down for days. I heard him crawling away whimpering in pain. Antonio glared at him.

"PHILLIP GET BACK HERE!"

"NO THIS GIRL IS CRAZY!" Antonio gave up on Phillip and looked at Joshua.

"Need some help there?" Noire was holding onto him fast and hadn't stopped biting him and was slowly increasing the pressure making him bleed more. I laughed and then moved towards Antonio as the third guy got to his feet. However, the guy was a major idiot and the rag got too close to his nose, making him pass out. I shook my head. Kishins are so stupid and easy to kill. I giggled and walked up to Antonio.

"How about you quit asking them to come after me and do it yourself."

"It's not my job to knock the pretty lady out." He shrugged and walked over to his friend and looked at Noire and laughed. "Damn, she's got you good." Joshua was wincing in pain and smacked Noire's head but she didn't let go and bit him harder to reward him. I laughed.

"Hey Nim, I think we found our first few to interrogate. How about you transform?" She gave him one last bite and then pushed him away and looked at me with blood all over her chin and wiped at it.

"Oh hi there Natasha."

"These guys are a bunch of jokes. Let's kill three and keep one to interrogate."

"I vote we keep Joshua." She grinned at him evilly.

"Awe and I was just starting to like Antonio." I laughed and nodded, She looked at me and shrugged.

"Weeeeell, if you want Antonio, we'll keep Antonio. As long as I get to beat him up later."

"I have an idea let's keep them both."

"Great!" She looked at Joshua. "Today just isn't your day is it?"

"I think you two have it confused." Antonio smirked. I felt hands grab me from behind.

"NOIRE!" I yelled just as a hand went over my mouth. Noire whipped around at the sudden panic in my voice and her eyes widened.

"LET. MY. FADE. GO!" She started to charge the guy holding me who was a very different guy from before....more suited to this job. I thought over a way to get out of this as Noire was swept off her feet by Joshua and thrown over his shoulder. She reached around and started pulling his hair and bit his ear lob really hard this time. He screamed out in pain as I felt the guy behind me adjusting his hands and I took my shot and head butted him like I done to the other guy but my head hit some flat hard chest instead and I felt really dizzy. DAMN MY SHORTNESS!

Noire pushed off on him and did a flipped around in the air as she brought her feet down and kicked him hard in the head and then pushed off of his head, pushing him in the dirt and landed on her feet. "HAH!" She kicked him in the side hard again and pulled his head up to her by his hair and punched him in the face. "I told you not to touch my Fade. I only wanted to go to the damn newspaper stand. Why can't boys get it right? When a girl says they want to go to the newspaper stand, they don't mean kidnapped." I laughed at her awesomeness and then turned around in the guys arms and kneed him right between the legs watching his face change a thousand different expressions in less then a second.

Noire was by my side in a second and pulled me away from the guy before he could latch on to me and pull me to the ground with him and tsked. "Boys. They don't understand no means no." She giggled and looked back at Joshua. I noticed Antonio had disappeared from the picture and panicked looking around and spotted him with three other guys on the other side of the street and was turning to face us with a gun.

"N-noire. RUN!"

"Huh?" She looked at Antonio and her eyes widened. She picked me up quickly and ran down an alleyway taking a turn quickly. I looked around and then stopped at a ladder.

"Let's get up there and then you turn into a bow and we get them that way!" However, as soon as I said that, Noire went rigid and fell to the ground dropping me with a tranq. sticking out of her arm. Antonio was standing a few feet away and smirked at me. I gasped and then hid behind a trashcan and entered this creep abandoned building through a smashed basement window and hid in the basement.

"Good little piglet." I heard him laugh and the trashcan was moved in front of the window and I heard him walk off to where Noire was and heard him pick her up. "I think we will kill this one off first. She's too dangerous to keep around for more than two days. Joshie will get the honors." He told the others. I gasped.

"You don't deserve to touch my Noire! YOUR GONNA DIE FOR TOUCHING HER!!!" I yelled and ran over to the window and tried to move the trashcan. "YOU BASTARD!"

"Hah, listen to the other one screaming. Someone go into the HQ and go into the basement to shut her up. I'll take this one down there after we interrogate her a little. It seems she didn't tell the truth with her little friend about themselves."

"YOU DUMMY! WHEN WE MEET AGAIN YOU'LL DIE!" HE IS DEFINITLY GOING TO BE THE FIRST KISHIN SOUL EATEN!

"Now, look here." I heard from behind me as the door opened and one of the goons walked in. "I've got some pretty tape that goes riiiiight over your mouth." He stepped in and the big fellow shut the door and walked over to me. I gripped the cane and prepared for the attacking. I hit his head hard. He grunted and threw the cane across the room towards the door and put the tape on my mouth then duct taped my hands behind my back quickly and then walked over to the door and picked up the cane, bending the metal thing in half to demonstrate how strong he was to me with a smirk and left with it. He seriously is stupid I mean for crying out loud this is just tape and I am a wonderful shimigami. Oh dear diary, send a letter to Kid about this when I get free and kill that big guy first. I laugh and started working on breaking the tape. I slide my hands back in forth getting closer to sliding it off instead of breaking it.

Noire's p.o.v.

I woke up feeling sore all over and I still had the taste of Joshua's blood in my mouth. Ewwwwwww. I spat at the ground and then realized I was tied up to a chair. What's going on? The door opened and in walked Joshua, Antonio, and a few others. I smirked at Joshua and playfully opened my mouth and made a biting motion with my teeth, making a little biting noise. Antonio shook his head and Joshua flinched. I grinned at him evilly. I see I left a little mental mark on you. "Oh good your awake. So little girl, what's your story? Why are you looking for us?"

"Because I really like Kishins." I smiled at him sweetly. I wanna eat your soul now please.

"So your name is Noire I take it?"

"No, it's Nim. N-I-m." I spelled out for Antonio.

"Really? Because Fade seems to be more into calling you Noire. She keeps asking for her Noire."

"Awwww, really? So tell me. Did you clean up Joshua's wounds like a good little boyfriend?"

"Yeah. Jealous much?" He took Joshua's hand and rubbed his cheek against it.

"And that's why I love Kishins. They are so dumb. I already have a boyfriend." I shook my head.

"Who might he be? What is your last name?"

"Well, his name is Daniel and my last name is Waters." I smiled at him. "Nim Waters to be exact."

"Your lying to us." He snapped his fingers as he let Joshua go and then two guys walked towards me with knives.

"Oh? Knives? I just absolutely loathe those things." I muttered staring at them resentfully.

"Fine, we can use a baseball bat instead." They walked out and came back with baseball bats.

"But that's no fun!" I pouted and looked at Antonio. "Knives are cool! I just don't like the competition I have with them."

"Competition?" Antonio asked. I nodded.

"Yeah, competition. My friend Natasha LOVES those things. She uses them to cut up people into little bits."

"I'll remember not to give Fade a knife then."

"IF YOU EVER HAND THAT GIRL A KNIFE, I WILL PERSONALLY DISEMBOWEL YOU AND FEED YOUR GUTS TO THE FISHES IN THE MEDITERRANEAN SEA AND THEN TAKE YOUR BODY AND BURN IT TO ASHES AND PLAY IN THEM."

"So you really don't like knives? Why? How are they competition to you?"

"I just don't like knives." I looked away.

"Your a weird child."

"Child? I'm 21 mister. That's lady to you." I glared at him.

"What was your reason for looking for us again?"

"I just like Kishins. That's all. Natasha is my weird friend who decided to follow me on my journey to learn more about Kishins. I've been obsessed with them for awhile now." I smirked at him.

"So you two fought us? Why? If you like us then you should've been more different in action out there."

"Well Antonio we didn't want to be CAUGHT by Kishins. We just wanted to observe them and learn from them." I shrugged and looked at Joshua and snapped my teeth again to scare him. He walked out the room holding his head down.

"So. You just wanted to observe? You do realize that now that we caught you there is only two options-"

"CAN I JOIN YOU?" My eyes got wide and I let my mouth hang open in fake admiration.

"You can either join us or death." He finished completely ignoring me.

"Death.....Death is awesome too.....This is a hard decision.....Have you talked about this decision with my amazing mei- friend?"

"She is still in the basement being shunned."

"Hmmm....Well....if I join you, do I get free cookies? In return, you get my biting and evil murdering services. As you can clearly tell, I love biting people." I giggled. Antonio looked at the boys.

"Well boys? Should we let her join?"

"Yeah! Let me join pretty please? I'll follow you guys anywhere for cookies and the chance to get to watch you kishins! Natasha loves Kishins too!" I gave the boys the famous eyes. A simple nod was passed between the boys.

"Alright you two girls are in, boys go get them a cookie. Oh and go get the girl in the basement and meet us in the living room." The guys walked off and Antonio walked over untying me.

"Can I give my boyfriend a call and let him know that I won't be home?" I rubbed my arms from where the rope was.

"Sure." He smiled and handed me his phone. I dialed up Kid's number and smiled at him.

"Can I have some privacy please?" He paused.

"Wait. You said your from America. If your over here I assume you definitely wouldn't be home. He would already know that because you would've said something. My my you are full of lies." I paled.

"Mister Antonio sir, I brought my boyfriend with me to Italy when I came here." I got out.

"So he is at a hotel right? Not home."

"I get my words mixed up." I smiled at him.

"Oh. Alright." He walked out leaving me his phone and shut the door behind him. I quickly got up and listened to Kid's phone ringing. Come on....pick up.....

"Death the Kid here, Is this Stein, Spirit, or Daddy calling wanting to know about Black Star, Liz, Patti, Tsubaki, and my whereabouts? WELL GO AWAY!-"

"Wait silly head." I said quickly.

"NOIRE! I suspected you wouldn't call me until you got back from your shopping spree in china, you know the one your doing currently with Fade that is gonna take three days."

"Oh you found out about that huh? Well mister, I'm not going to be home anytime soon. Apparently something has gone off track and my little hobby of mine has gotten me in a gang, sooooooo yeah. I'm not going to be home soon."

"Into a gang? Are you joining some cult out there and raising baby lamas and yaks now?"

"I don't think there are lamas in China." I frowned. "Wouldn't that be in the desert or something like the Sahara?"

"I don't know. I haven't gone to China yet. I am currently in Europe looking at brochures. Black Star and I decided to go shopping to."

"Hmm...that's nice. I'm going to guess daddy spilled the beans about our whereabouts."

"No Black Star told me, he said you are off in China with Fade on a shopping spree for three days."

"Oh alright. Well, this Kishin gang is really cool. They have knives and cellphones and they promised me cookies." I giggled. "Did you know there was a Kishin gang in China? They found us while we were shopping and asked us to join them after I demonstrated my skills on one of them."

"What are you talking about? Spill the beans right now. Where are you? Are you even in China?"

"Well, I've been tranqed.....I don't really know if I still am in China...." I put the phone on my chest and peeked out the door and saw Antonio. "Hey sir? Am I still in Italy?"

"Yeah. Not that far from the hotel you came out of actually. Not that I was looking or anyth- HEY WHY YOU WANNA KNOW?"

"Because I like Italy, not Germany." I shrugged and went back into the room, shutting the door. I put the phone back up to my ear. "Yeah, I'm still in China sorta. In a warehouse looking place. Not too far from that hotel Fade got us a room in."

"OH REALLY? Black Star guess what I just found out!"

"Don't know where Fade is....They say she's in the basement." I mumbled.

"WOW! I hope you girls enjoy yourselves. As long as you get your mission done and come home in three days I wont come save you."

"Mission? What mission? Kid, spill the beans. What do you think I'm doing?"

"Hanging out in abandoned house playing kidnapped."

"Well, I guess you could call it that. I'm going to go find Fade and get that cookie. So bye! Enjoy Europe. Oh and go check out the Eiffel Tower again for symmetry. It'll help your mental state." I laughed.

"Go find Fade sweetie and complete that mission of your. I shall be watching."

"HUH? What are you ta-" Beep. DAMN YOU KID! I stormed out of the room and handed the phone to Antonio. "My boyfriend sends his regards." I smiled at him. "He's happy that I got to join you Kishins. He's a fan too." Antonio smirked.

"That's cool. Natasha should be here soon."

"Ummmm Sir. I cant find the girl that we placed in the basement." One of the goonies said as he came up. I frowned.

"You lost my Natasha? My sweet little Natasha?"

"I don't think she liked being taped up." Joshua said as he walked in and chuckled. "I found a note signed by her saying we are all going to die."

"Oh that. Disregard that. She just gets jealous when people touch me like you do when I bite your Joshie." I smirked.

"I get jealous to when people touch my Joshua, NOT!" Antonio laughed.

"Yeah, but you get the picture. Natasha has been an orphan and I was the first person she met when they kicked her out of the orphanage, so I helped her. We are very possessive over each other because of that."

"Nice story. C'mon and let's go find the other girl." I smiled.

"Alright. I'll get her to join us ok?" I skipped down the hallway. "Natasha? Come out, come out wherever you are! It's alright! They let me join the gang and they want you to join too with me! Sweetie?" I looked around the halls as I took random turns to find her. I was tackled to the ground into a bear hug and seen Fade.

"What did you say? Are you alright? They didn't touch you right?"

"No! I even got to call Daniel, my boyfriend!" I smiled at her.

"Who's he?"

"Did I not introduce you to my boyfriend Natasha?" I tilted my head. "His name is Daniel...."

"Your confusing me..." She looked confused. "Let's go kill these guys and get out of here they are messing with my shopping spree and hunger."

"But I like Kishins remember? You do too! And they promised us cookies in the living room."

"COOKIES! REALLY! OKAY I AM SO IN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" She grabbed my hand and stood up pulling me with her and took off down the hall.

"JOSHIE? ANTONIO? I FOUND NATASHA!" I giggled.

"OH BOYS! I WANT THAT COOKIE!" Fade yelled as we entered the livingroom. The livingroom was very homie like the only difference is there is no family photos on the walls. A few guys were in the room and Joshua was sitting next to Antonio on the couch.

"Guys, guys, guys!" I ran over to them and gave them both hugs. "I found my friend!"

"WHERES THOSE COOKIES YOU PROMISED ME!" Fade yelled and then sat down on Antonio looking him in the eyes. Looks like she got what I was trying to tell her, now she is playing along with me in this little game.

"Yeah, you said we could have cookies." I pouted and sat down in Joshua's lap and looked at him then at his ear lobe where I bit him earlier and contained a giggle then looked him in the eyes.

"Right here." Antonio said and then grabbed a bag off the table and pulled out a box of cookies and gave Fade one then me one. I smiled at them and relaxed a little in Joshie's lap and ate the cookie.

"Thanks guys! Best Kishins ever!" I giggled. Antonio laughed.

"Yep we are definitely keeping you girls alive." Joshua said.

"What does that mean?" I looked at him.

"We were just discussing about keeping you girls alive. Yep, you girls can be our little pets."

"Pets?" I tilted my head. "What would a great big Kishin like you want with a pet?"

"You girls can be trained to help us lure in our victims and such. Whatever we want you to be."

"Oh ok!" I smiled at him and gave him a hug. "I'll totally do what you want! You let me bite you!"

"Do me a favor and don't bring that one back up. You two sure are friendly now. A hour or so ago you were threatening to kill us. I like this side of you better."

"Aw really? Ok!" I giggled and grabbed a few strands of his hair and started trying to braid what little I had.

"You two need to head on back to the hotel. We will pick you up tomorrow and give you your first tasks as being a part of us now."

"Okai! Natasha! Come on, we've got to go to the hotel now. Our masters have ordered it!" I smiled at her.

"BUT I JUST GOT COMFY!"

"Off of Antonio. Come on. I've got to make your lasagna Natasha. You do want lasagna don't you?" I smiled at her again.

"No I want spaghetti!" She yelled and got up walking over to what looked like the front door. "BYYYYEEEEE BOYS!" I giggled and looked at Joshie.

"Bye Joshie." I got up and walked over to Fade. "Well, see you boys tomorrow."

"Bye girls, sleep well tonight!" I wrapped an arm around Fade's waist and pulled her out of there quickly. Once we were on the streets I looked at her.

"Let's go find a different hotel."

"I heard that right, we need to get our stuff though. I think those guys done something to our cookies. Luckily I probably wont get effected that much but you are screwed. Lucky I can protect you. Oh and we should totally kill them all tomorrow and then go out for some icecream."

"Ok. I couldn't agre- YOU THINK THEY DID SOMETHING TO THE- OH MY- FADE!" I looked at her.

"What? Is your vision going blurry or something."

"N-no....Why didn't you say something?" I blinked slowly and then leaned against Fade. "Whoa....take that ba....back...."

"A back?" She giggled and leaned against me to going into more fits of giggles. "If I did say anything it would look susspecious!"

"Your.....words....are very.....messed up....young lady." I started giggling uncontrollably as I pointed my finger at her. "Go....back to Kindergarten!"

"No wAAAy." She started falling down slowly.

"HAH! Look at that, Fadey wadey is falling over! London Bridge is falling down, falling do....down, falling down!" Her back was now on the ground as she laughed holding her stomach. "Busting a gut are we?"

"BURPING A WHAT? I cant hear yo."

"I SAID YOUNG LADY, THAT WE SHOULD TOTALLY GO GET LOST WITH THE UNICORNS!" I giggled and laid down on the ground next to her. She pointed up at the sky.

"LOOK IT'S STARS!"

"I'VE HEARD THAT THEY ARE BIG BALLS OF GAS, BUT WHAT A LOAD OF BALONEY THAT IS! THEY ARE SPARKLES PUT IN THE SKY BY THE NIGHT FAIRIES!" I laughed and wrapped my arms around her.

"I THOUGHT THAT THEY WERE CREATED BY THE MOON GOD!" She shouted at me.

"DUNNO! I'VE GOT A GOOD IDEA! MAYBE THE FAIRIES AND MOON GOD WORKED TOGETHER TO MAKE THE STARS."

"WOW! I SEE A PURPLE ELEPHANT UP THERE WALKING THE SKYS CARRYING A MONKEY!"

"Awwwwww....you're so cute." I laughed and looked up at the stars. A face leaned over me blocking my view and I noticed it was  Joshie.

"You two want to come join us guys? We are throwing a party."

"Only if Fadey wadey wants too. Fade darling?" I turned over to her and grabbed a lock of her hair and started braiding it. "Joshie wants to take us to a party. What do you say?"

"I say, WILL THERE BE BOYS AND COOKIES?" She giggled.

"Boys yes, but I dunno about cookies.....maybe." I laughed and looked up at Joshie and pouted. "Will there be more cookies?"

"Anything you pretty girls want, I will serve to you."

"Really?" I looked up at him and tilted my head.

"Thirsty ladies?"

"I am so parched!" Fade complained.

"I think Fade wants water." I mumbled and sat up looking at him. You know.....he's kind of cute.....

"OH HI ANTONIO!" Fade yelled as she leaned her head back and seen Antonio appear from behind Joshie.

"Whatcha boys doing here anyways?" I yawned and looked at them both.

"Well we came to check on you." Joshie held out a hand for me as Antonio did the same to Fade. "Let us show you the dark side, remember we have cookies."

"Mkay." I took his hand and gave him a kiss on his cheek. "Can you escort us to our hotel room please? I've got to get back before my boyfriend finds out I've been eating cookies without him."

"Thought you two wanted to party with us."

"That's a better idea!" I giggled and leaned against Joshie for support.

"C'mon then." He drug me into the house again and Fade followed being escorted by Antonio.

"Joshie?" I mumbled.

"Yes cute stuff?"

"Why am I your pet?"

"You chose to be, either this or death."

"Oh ok. I forgot. Wait....did I get a choice in who's pet I was?"

"Nope. We decide for you."

"Oh so Fade over there is Antonio's pet?"

"Yes, and you are mine." I giggled.

"You remind me of this guy who used to call me that all the time."

"Oh really, who is this guy you speak of?"

"My boyfriend....."

"Forget about him, you are not apart of that life now."

"Ok Joshie!" I smiled at him cheerfully and gave him a kiss on the cheek then sat on the couch and looked up at him. I had noticed that Antonio had taken Fade out of the room, leaving me and Joshie alone.
