[hikimi meeting with mitsu]
Hikimi: Did you need me for something?.
[mitsu smiles]
Mitsu: In fact I did, darling.
[hikimi looks at mitsu confused]
Hikimi: why do you call me that?.
[mitsu looks at hikimi surprised]
Mitsu: call you what?.
Hikimi: darling.
Mitsu: oh, it's because you are my darling.
Hikimi: what do you mean by that?.
[mitsu gets up from her desk and pins hikimi against the wall]
Mitsu: I rescued you out of love.
[mitsu stares at hikimi's lips]
Mitsu: plus.
[mitsu puts her hands on hikimi's waist]
Mitsu: How can someone let this fine body go to waste?.
[hikimi blushes]
Hikimi: oh, ok then.
[mitsu goes back to her desk]
Mitsu: Do you remember ten years ago?.
[hikimi looks at mitsu surprised]
Hikimi: what do you mean by that?.
Mitsu: like what happened before i found you?.
Hikimi: I don't really remember much about it, why?.
[mitsu thinking to herself]
Mitsu: good, that surgery took every last fragment of her memory from before.
[mitsu stops thinking to herself]
Mitsu: I guess the trauma you had before I found you was really severe.
Hikimi: I suppose so.
[Mitsu blushes]
Mitsu: how about, we, you know.
[hikimi looks at mitsu confused]
Hikimi: Do you want me to take you to your room?.
Mitsu: if you don't mind.
[hikimi picks up mitsu and opens the door]
Suwa: um, mitsu.
[suwa looks at hikimi and mitsu surprised]
Suwa: nevermind, we have an evacuation mission we need to hurry and get to.
Mitsu: aww, i was just getting started.
Suwa: It doesn't matter right now, there are several hostages we need to help evacuate before a bomb goes off.
Mitsu: [sigh] ok
[hikimi puts mitsu down]
Hikimi: Here, let's go get ready.
[mitsu looks at hikimi surprised]
Mitsu: Look at you trying to take the lead.
[hikimi puts on her mask and suit]
Hikimi: there.
[hikimi looks over at mitsu]
Hikimi: Are you going to change?.
[mitsu staring at hikimi]
Mitsu: Has anyone told you how amazing your body is?.
Hikimi: Yes, you have told me that for a while now.
[mitsu walks over to hikimi]
Mitsu: would you care if I kissed you?.
[hikimi blushes]
Hikimi: um, I wouldn't mind.
[mitsu smiles]
Mitsu: good.
[mitsu kisses hikimi]
Mitsu: How was that?.
Hikimi: it was good.
[mitsu smiles]
Mitsu: ok.
[mitsu put on her white coat]
Mitsu: Now, let's go see what kind of evacuation this is.
[hikimi and mitsu walk down the hallway to the garage]
Hikimi: I wonder how many hostages there are?.
Mitsu: I'm not sure, I just hope it isn't a lot.
[suwa looks at hikimi and mitsu surprised]
Suwa: Finally, where have you two been?.
Mitsu: We had a little talk in the changing room.
Suwa: [sigh] we don't have time for your affairs, hurry up and get in the truck.
Mitsu: oh, ok.
[mitsu gets in the truck with suwa]
Mitsu: what about hikimi?.
Suwa: Oh yeah I forgot, hikimi you are the leader of team 1 on this mission so head to the truck that has a number one on it.
[hikimi nods her head]
Hikimi: understood.
[hikimi walks over to the team 1 truck]
Hikimi: um, I'm meant to be the leader of this team for this mission. Where am I meant to go?.
Driver: just get in the passenger's seat.
[hikimi looks at the driver surprised]
Hikimi: oh, ok.
[hikimi get in the truck and follows behind suwa and mitsu]
[suwa on the radio to the team 1 driver]
Suwa: turn on your lights and sirens.
Driver: understood.
[team 1 driver turns on the siren and lights]
Hikimi: where are we meant to go?.
Driver: it's near the ocean line in one of the warehouses.
Hikimi: ok.
[suwa and mitsu arrive at the warehouse]
Suwa: I have a feeling this is a trap, just wait here.
Mitsu: ok.
[suwa gets out of the truck and opens the door of the warehouse]
Suwa: Of course it was.
[suwa runs to the truck and gets on the radio]
Suwa: Team 1 and 2 notify the police that we'll be late the person who set this bomb tricked us.
Team 1 driver: understood.
Team 2 driver: understood as well.
[team 1 driver hands hikimi a phone]
Driver: here call the police for the location of the evacuation.
Hikimi: ok.
[hikimi calls the police]
Hikimi: Hello, this is team 1. We were wondering where the evacuation site is located.
Officer: It is located at a mall located near the prison.
Hikimi: ok, understood.
[hikimi hangs up]
Driver: so?.
Hikimi: it's located at the mall close to the prison.
Driver: understood.
[after some time hikimi and team 1 arrive at the mall]
Hikimi: this is it.
[director 1 runs towards hikimi]
Director 1: please come this way.
Hikimi: ok.
[director 1 walks hikimi to the the entrance]
Director 1: the person who set this bomb used a special lock that only strand users can open.
Hikimi: I'm not sure, there aren't really many strand uses, most of them moved to other cities after the war.
[director looks at hikimi surprised]
Director 1: you don't think that someone got a hold of technology to make something that only strand users can use?.
Hikimi: it is a possibility, they could have planned this attack after the war.
Director 1: who would plan an attack for 10 years?.
Hikimi: I'm not sure, they could have waited till all of the strand users left the city to make the technology so when the police tried to save the hostages it would look like they didn't try to save them.
Director 1: Can you open it?.
Hikimi: I can.
Hikimi: team 1! get on the left and right side of the door.
Team 1: understood!.
[team 1 get on each side of the door]
Hikimi: now breach!.
[hikimi blows the lock apart with her oppressors strand]
Team 1: move!.
[team 1 rushes into the mall]
Hikimi: I guess I should go in as well.
[suwa and mitsu arrive at the mall]
Mitsu: hikimi!.
[hikimi looks back at mitsu]
Hikimi: yes?.
[mitsu runs towards hikimi]
Mitsu: have you already talked to the director?.
Hikimi: yes, and I already have team 1 breaching the building.
[mitsu looks at hikimi surprised]
Mistu: Wow, you were well organized on this one.
Hikimi: thanks.
Mitsu: Also, what did the director say?.
Hikimi: someone made technology that only a strand user could use to make it look like the police did not do their job to save the hostages if the bomb were to go off.
Mitsu: So they were waiting for the bomb to go off to frame the police for not doing their job?.
Hikimi: pretty much.
[team 1 on the radio]
Team 1: We found the hostages.
Hikimi: good, are any of them injured?.
Team 1: not that we see, but we don't see the bomb anywhere.
Hikimi: what?.
Hikimi: check all of the hostages and make sure they didn't hide it.
Team 1: understood.
[mitsu stares at hikimi]
Mitsu: I love it when you're in charge.
[suwa runs over to hikimi and mitsu]
Suwa: what's going on?.
Hikimi: team 1 just reported that they found the hostages but not the bomb.
[suwa looks at hikimi surprised]
Suwa: what?
Hikimi: I told them to check every hostage before they begin evacuating them.
Suwa: ok.
Suwa: Where's team 2?.
Hikimi: I'm not sure, I believe that they might have searched around to see if they found any signs of the bomber.
Suwa: oh, ok.
[Hikimi sees someone jumping building to building]
Hikimi: mitsu, check and see who that is.
[hikimi points at the person jumping building to building]
Mitsu: ok.
[mitsu uses her searchers strand to see who it is]
Mitsu: I'm not sure who it is, but they have an executioner's strand.
Hikimi: You don't think they could have set the bomb, do you?.
Mitsu: I'm not sure but they are fleeing the scene pretty fast.
Hikimi: ok.
[team 1 on the radio]
Team1: we are now evacuating all of the hostages.
hikimi: good.
Suwa: hikimi,mitsu, come on, our job here is done.
[hikimi looks at suwa surprised]
Hikimi: I thought I was meant to ride with team 1.
Suwa: not anymore you can ride back with us.
Hikimi: ok.
[suwa,hikimi and mitsu get in the truck]
Mitsu: Here switch spots with me so I can sit in your lap.
Hikimi: ok.
[mitsu sits in hikimi's lap]
Mitsu: You should meet me in my room when we get back.
Hikimi: ok, do you want me to bring the handcuffs?.
[mitsu blushes]
Mitsu: don't say that out loud, that's only for you and me to know.
[suwa looks at hikimi and mitsu surprised]
Suwa: I am never touching a pair of handcuffs you two give me.
Mitsu: see, now suwa knows.
Hikimi: I'm sorry.
Mitsu: You'll have to make it up to me in my room.
Hikimi: ok.
