Chapter 3 - I’m Never Letting My Guard Down Again

After a generally exhausting trip and a couple of talks with the passengers on the train, I had advanced towards Washington. I searched for a hotel to stay, and at this point, I had understood that I was being followed, I went to a dim corner, so I could catch the people who were following me. To my astonishment instead of seeing a lot of grownups, I saw a lot of children with ragged clothes, and it had seemed as though they were beaten up. Yet, I had felt no remorse, since I had experienced childhood in a poisonous situation, and that gave me a high pain tolerance since as young as five.

The children moved toward me with a look of dread and pity in their eyes; it had seemed as though they had developed in a similar toxic environment as me. Still, the difference between them and me was that they showed trust in their faces imagining that things would get better, well when I was a kid I had no such desires since I've realized that on the off chance that I had them, they would wind up letting me down. Everyone had consistently let me down, making me have no desires any longer.

Seeing their faces, I let my guard down. The youngsters assaulted me with full strength, I was astounded by how fast and robust they moved, they were stronger than a large portion of the agents, I still injured them even though they were just children. I made it to a point to not give them any severe wounds considering they were kids and offered farewell. I reported to my superiors about this occurrence before entering the hotel.

To discover who were the kids that assaulted me, I skipped lunch; there were two of them; the older kid was female with long dark hair called Kuroo. The other kid was male with light colored hair called Tsukki, they were both athletic and could evade a some of my attacks, after finding these snippets of data I went down to have supper, I recorded down all the things that occurred in my journal.

I recorded this in my Journal and tried to rest.

(This content beneath is seen by the two children Kuroo and Tsukki's perspective)

Tsukki and Kuroo sneaked in to Valerie Bree's inn to hijack her according to their manager's requests

Kuroo: "Hey this is the young woman that beat us up a little while ago right"

Tsukki: "Yeah she's the one, we'll take her to the Boss as planned. Be careful not to make any sounds, considering she figured out our weaknesses, you should not treat her as your average opponent."

Kuroo: "Yeah, yeah I got it."
