♥ Chapter 3! Ze End! ♥ Chapter 3: “Doing things my way!”
Kira waited a day before deciding to hit the museum again. She thought if she didn’t make herself known for a while, it would give her the element of surprise. Maybe the “Ninja Man” as she was now referring to him by, didn’t see her the next day he’d think she had given up. So at midnight, Kira made her way back inside the museum. She took much more careful steps into not being noticed. “So far so good…” she said softly to herself. It was much more quieter as well. Why was it so quite, she thought to herself. There were no sounds of shuffling feet behind the doors. No high pitched noises of the set alarms. It was almost as if no one was guarding a single treasure. But that wasn’t her problem. If they security was lacking then it was her chance.
Upon reaching the glass case, Kira began to smile at herself. I can do this… I can do this… Slowly she lifted the glass. I’m doing it… I’m doing it! And once it was set down on the floor and she grabbed the grunny, she could’ve nearly cried with happiness. I GOT IT!! I FINALLY GOT IT!!
It took her a moment to realize she was bouncing on her toes. But when she had, she quickly took a fighting stance… just in case. But when no one attacked her or said anything to her, Kira made a mad dash for the window. Rapidly tucking the jade treasure into a small handy pouch, Kira then climbed out of the window.
Minutes later she was running through the forest that lead to the port. It wasn’t a deep lush forest like the ones that surrounded Barton Town, so she took care not to be noticed by the night owls who strolled around at that time. She was as swift as the rabbit inside of her until the port was in sight. She was to meet Mr. Emina at midnight but Kira was a few minutes early. If I’m a little early, maybe Mr. Emina will be proud of me! Kira thought to herself as she approached the window she was to enter through. She carefully climbed the rope that was left for her and then preached herself on the window sill.
“Sir, isn’t that little bunny chick supposed to be here soon?!” A tall man by the door asked. Emina was sitting in a chair behind a large black desk. He sharpened another letter opener while he spoke, “Please! Knowing that incompetent little girl, she’ll be late as always...” Kira’s mouth opened a little at the words, her eyes widened a bit. “What if she doesn’t show up? What if she screw up again?” another man across the room asked. “Well, that’s what you too are here for. If she can’t do her job right, I have no use for her.” Kira grabbed onto her chest as her heart sank and fear entered inside... He’s going to kill me?! “So we just drop her into the ocean like the others?” Others?! “Of course. I don’t tolerate idiots whom can’t follow simple orders. She’s just a worthless little scab from another planet… lucky I even gave her a home to begin with. Or she’d be as poor and useless as she’d be had I fired her.” Idiot?! Little scab?! USELESS?!
Kira’s fear left as anger began to swell inside of her! She jumped down into the middle of the room her eyes covered by silver hair. “K-Kira! You’re early?! Did you get it?!” Mr. Emina asked, while standing up from his chair. “You… lied to me…” was all she said with a growl. “What?” “You lied to me!! You used me just to get your dumb treasure!” Kira’s eyes shot up and glared at the man. They were filled with tears and anger as she shouted, “I trusted you!! I believed that someone like you actually cared about me!!!” Emina laughed, “So, you got here early and heard our conversation?! Then you already know what will happen if you don’t hand it over.” “How?! How could you do this to so many others?! And why me as well?! I thought you actually loved me!” “Love you?!” Emina began laughing louder and louder, “How could anyone of my fame and fortune ever love a little alien such as yourself? You were just fresh meat right off the space barge! And if you don’t want to be sea food, I suggest you hand over the grunny.”
“No!! I’m taking it back and revealing your plan to Gambino!” Emina had a sinister smile when he said, “We’ll see about that…” and he snapped his fingers. The two large guards came rushing towards Kira but she jumped up and away. “Get her!! Don’t let her leave here alive!!” Just as they were about to run after her again, sharp objects fell swiftly to the ground beside their feet. “Shuriken?!” Emina said. The guards, Emina and Kira looked to see the source of where they came from. Standing up on a beam high above the warehouse was D_Vious. “Ninja Man!!” Kira shouted with both with happiness and surprise. “Sorry Emina, but she’s coming with me. If you have something wrong with that, then I’ll take you down.” D jumped down with such force, he crushed the face of one guard with the bottom of his hard wooden sandal. The man fell with a grunt and blood splattered out of his broken nose all over his face. His comrade come at D with a large fist, shouting with rage as he lunged forward. D ducked under the hand and brought an open hand to the man’s stomach. Kira watched as if everything went in slow motion. D’s hand seemed to glow an aura of blue before the man went flying across the room, smashing through boxes until he landed on the wall, leaving a large dent.
The bloody guard with his broken nose picked on the shurikens out from the ground, stood up, and attempted to swipe at D with it. D went to his feet, sweeping a leg under then man. Once he lost his balance, D brought the same foot up to kick the man’s face again, sending him spinning into other boxes. He and his friend were now out of commission. During the fight, Emina snuck up to Kira and brought his letter opener to her neck. Kira brought her neck up as she sweat with fear. D turned around and glared at Emina, “Let her go.” “Ha!! And lose out on all that I’ve gained?! You must me joking!” D began walking forward and Emina inched back with Kira following. “You best to stay back… or she’ll be another statistic at the bottom of the ocean!” Then D stepped back, surprising both Emina and Kira. And he kept stepping back until he was in the shadows of some stacked boxes. Then, with no warning, he vanished into the shadow. Kira’s eyes widened again as well as Emina. “Where did he go?!” Emina’s guard dropped out off fear and Kira fell forward. “Where are you?!” the man spun around several times looking for D shouting out for him to reveal himself. Kira turned while still on the ground just as she saw D arise from a shadow under Emina’s feet. “Looking for me?” D whispered with a smile on his face. Emina dropped his opener and turned around with shear terror on his face. But it twisted when D punched him point blank. He fells backwards and landed at Kira’s feet. He grabbed his face while pulling himself up on her. “Kira! Please help me! I’m sorry! I was only joking about all that! You understand don’t you!” “Oh I understand alright…” Kira grabbed the man by his collar and brought his face to her own, “… that you are the biggest mistake of them all!!” She spun around once and cried out as she tossed the man into a wall behind her. “Nice move… but we should get out of here. I alerted Gambino and he should be here soon…” D said as he picked Kira up off her feet. He jumped for the window and then leapt out of it. “I don’t get it! Why are you helping me?!” “You weren’t my enemy from the start. Emina was my only target so I had no need to fight you in the first place,” D ran from the area faster than Kira when she was on her way there. The sun began to rise in the distance as Kira sat on the shore of the beach. Her knees were brought up to her chest and she stared at the sand below. D stood beside her as he had for a few hours and asked finally, “Are you going to just sit here forever?” “Why not… I’ve got no where else to go now.” “Why not work for Gambino instead? You and I could be partners.” “Do you think he’ll really let me go? After stealing the grunny?” “Yeah, he’s not such a bad guy… and unlike Emina, he pays with real money and not promises.” Kira looked up and over her shoulder at D. He smiled at her and she did the same. “Oh, by the way you know my name… but I don’t know yours. I’ve been calling you ‘Ninja Man’..” D laughed at Kira and replied, “D Vious. But you can call me D.” “Devious? What kinda name is that?!”
Later that day, the jade grunny was returned back to Gambino and he didn’t press any charges against her since Emina was using her. D brought up the idea of hiring her instead and Gambino took him up on the idea. Soon, Kira was working for him along side D. It lasted for a while until the 2 of them were asked to become crew members at a popular guild by a woman name Sex Odyssey.
Soon, they were crew members but D still did odd jobs as a ninja for hire. Kira then received a flying pirate ship from her aunt in which she hadn’t seen since she left her planet. Kira decided to fight people like Emina, whom used others or exploited them by organizing a pirate crew. Then one day, D proposed to Kira during the first Christmas they shared together. And well, you know the rest of the story…. ^_~
