Chapter 15 - The real world .

In a dark room I'm writing my story and the only source of light that illuminates the room is the lamp beside my desk .

Author :"Ah fuck".

I hit a complete wall in writing the story and it's honestly messing up my brain , suddenly a knock on the door makes me jump from my seat .

Author :"Come in".

The door flies off of it's hinges and smashes into the wall next to me .

Jackie :"SAKURA YOU SON OF A BITCH"!

'Huh who the FUCK is this chick' . I look back at her , her smooth white skin , supple lips , yellow cat ears and tail , plump body features and her long golden pony tail flew as the wind blew at it and light flooded the room .

Jackie :"SON OF A BITCH YOU EVEN FORGOT WHO I AM"!!?

She grabs the color of my shirt and shakes me vigorously due to my small size she easily lifted me up and shakes me up and down like a small doll .

Sakura :"Honestly your such a worrywart".

She stops shaking me and a dark aura seeps out from her with her eyes completely blank staring at me .

Sakura :"Alright alright you win I'll come along to your little expedition".

I lift both of my arms up in the air and sigh deeply as her aura calms down and her stiff face immediately lights up .

Jackie :"REALLY , THANK YOU SOOO MUCH"!!

She pulls me in a deep tight hug and finally drops me .

Sakura :"Still you need to pay for the door fees".

Jackie :"What door fees"?

I point to the now currently broken door and smashed wall behind me .

Jackie :"Oh that well I'll see about that".

I get up and go to my closet and open it to take out my hunter gear ranging from my guns to my attire .

Sakura :"It's alright I was planning to go out anyways either way just leave I'll change myself".

Jackie :"I'll wait for you outside"!

She happily tip taps outside my room and I go to the bathroom with my set of armour and I close the door and lock it for safety purposes .

Sakura :"How long has it been huh"?

I look into the bathroom mirror and yep snow like skin , white hair , red eyes and a small figure I giggle at myself and take off my tattered shirt and pants .

Sakura :"How long has it been buddy".

I look at the set of clothes and armour lying down on the bathroom floor 'honestly the financial situation isn't the best right now so I'm planning to go out and hunt for a few days' . I grab black "tech" which is basically black tight latex that allows mana and energy to flow through the armour strengthening it and allows the wearers senses to become one with the suit . Next up was a black trench coat it covered the upper legs and the lower part was burned off while the arms were non existent It was comfy and it looked stylish on top of the armour it would look badass I assured myself . I wear the reddish black armour which covered the chest , back , lower legs , groin and upper and lower arms and the waist . The left gauntlet had a small black shield fitted into the gauntlet was a deepish red that was fitted with a few receptors that siphon energy at will which allows the suit to absorb energy whenever needed but it did have a few scratches and a few signs of rusting and the pouldren was smaller and lighter than the one on the right . The lower part of the legs were covered by leather black boots that covered the armour beneath it and the thighs had no armour for manuverabilty . The legs had impact absorption with the addition of stabilizers that could allow a person to carry extra weight on the calf of the legs were boosters that allow a person to dash towards to cover distance and beneath the feet were boosters that allowed for double jumps to cover more distance . The black chest and back armour were the thickest and strongest it could take on even a few tank shells , the chest armour covered the right side of my upper body while the left side was more exposed this was due to manuverabilty underneath the chest region were a interconnecting an articulated plating that offered extra protection to the body itself . the waist was a deep black color it had four brownish ammo pouches two on each side and one big pouch on the back that contained medical supplies for emergencies and it was stuck to the waist because of the pads which allowed ammo pouches to be stuck to it and grenades . the suit had the basics : enhancements , receptors , it was air tight so space and underwater combat was possible with the addition of the boosters it allowed combat to be more easy with that the suit sealed itself and strength flowed back in one of the positives of this suit it required little to no magic since it absorbs mana and energy alike . I wear a large black scarf filled with bullet holes and burn marks and lastly . I wear my black helmet it's smooth exterior and no eye slits made it look high tech and expensive it even had two antenna which extended from it's sides which allowed me to sense anything around me in a 20 meter radius and it offered decent protection though most importantly it was very light it allowed for easy movement just like the rest of my armour. The helmet's color would remind one of ash and it's overuse showed on its exterior from a few scratches to even a huge claw mark cutting deep into the side of the helmet leaving a deep cut and with that inspection I'm done I look one last time into the mirror .

Sakura :"Wow an emo phase huh guess that's what they said about me huh well atleast I look cool looks cool".

I walk out the bathroom and grab a pistol holster hung on the wall and beside it my small energy knife it had a dim red hue which covered the black blade whenever it had absorbed energy it was single edged and had no guard the design was simple and efficient . The black blade was sharp but had scratches and old blood that covered the surface of the blade and grip the sheath was bland and black I hoist the sheath on my back and put the sword in it . I walk outside my apartment room and it seems that Jackie was waiting for me outside .

Jackie :"Long time no see 'Red devil' you even grew a little taller".

Sakura :"Don't call me that , now let's get to business".

She crosses her arms and pouts to me while looking down on me with her brown eyes .

Jackie :"Your always no fun".

Sakura :"And your always a kid so let's get moving".

Jackie :"Hmph either way who gets a pistol holster without a pistol"?

Sakura :"Of course this is your payment for the pistol that was slashed into bits before".

A few days ago I was on a mission with her and her crew I was a Merc so an extra person who assists and attacks depending on the situation . And that situation cost me a beautiful Glock 18 .

Jackie :"F...fine I'll pay for it..huh wait for me"!?

I walk to the elevator with it's doors already closing she rushes in and makes it on time panting all the while and kneeling down on the elevator .

Jackie :"Y *Pant* you son of a bitch can't you hold the door for me atleast".

I look down on her as she looks away shivering I look away and press the lobby button and the elevator descends .

Sakura :"Your faster than I expected".

Jackie :"You son of a bitch"!

She tires to grab my collar but I catch her arm and drag her close to my face .

Sakura :"Listen woman do not forget that you owe me a favor I really would hate it if I sent you to the hospital".

I let go of her hand as a single sweat rolls down her face with horror strewn across her face .

Jackie :"I...I...I got it".

The elevator doors open and I step outside to the lobby it's extravagant it's obvious that it belongs to the rich and powerful but what they didn't expect is me .

Jackie :"W...wait a sec geez".

She hastily walks out behind me and the people immediately gossip around us .

Jackie :"What...what is this"?

I look around and yep they all are assholes from business men to celebrities all of them know who I am .

Sakura :"Who knows".

I walk past the crowd and a person reaches out to grab my arm and immediately I catch their arm and throw them over my shoulder to the ground hard I hold onto their arm and step on their chest .

Sakura :"Who are you"?

It was a man tall , lean figure , white skin and golden hair with azure eyes wearing a business suit and had his hair gelled from what I can guess he could try to kill me .

Business man :"Well that's a tight spot right kid".

Jackie :"D...DAD"!?

I look at Jackie and the man breaks free he takes a small knife out and aims at my chest though I was faster I took out my sword and easily deflected his attack he quickly counters with a side slash with magic infused in it I duck his attack as his knife nearly hits my antenna I sweep his legs though he jumps up in the air he throws the knife at me aimed at my shoulder I deflect it and the knife flies across the lobby and the man lands on his two feet with a grin across his face .

Business man :"Ha this kid you really have balls don't you".

I hold on the grip of my sword tightly with one hand and Jackie runs in between us holding out her arms .

Jackie :"STOP BOTH OF YOU"!!

Her eyes looked hazy and panicked I guess that was her dad .

Jackson :"Hah forgive me for this Jackie well then shall we meet the "Red devil" oh and by the way kid names Jackson and you taught beautifully will you consider joining me".

Jackie looks at her father with hazed eyes and her breath gets quick and light .

Jackie :"....".

This is awkward really awkward it looks like I sheath the sword and walk away to the door .

Jackie :"P...please Mr. devil my father didn't mean to".

Jackson :"What this kid is the red devil"?

I continue to walk as suddenly she hugs me from behind stopping me from moving her arms wrapping around my waist clinging onto me .

Jackie :"Please forgive my father I beg you".

I stand still I look back at her and it's awkward seeing a tall woman like her act like a girl especially with those teary eyes well she caught me in a somewhat good mood so .

Sakura :"Meet me at the hunters store you still owe me the pistol".

I grab her arms and shove them aside and walk outside onto the streets and take a breath of fresh air I quickly leave and hide behind the wall to listen in on their conversation .

Jackie :"Fuckfuckfuckfuckduckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuck".

Jackson :"Uhm baby what's wrong".

He holds her shoulder and she slaps his arm off almost blowing it off she turns around and her face is a mess from her tears flowing down her beautiful brown eyes that've now turned white and bland due to the excessive crying .

Jackie :"YOU SON OF A BITCH THAT'S HOW YOU TREAT SOMEONE WHO FUCKING SAVED ME"!!!?

She walks up to him and slaps his face she pants heavily and the dad makes the that says 'It seems that I royally fucked up' .

Jackie :"I...I fucking hate you dad I don't wanna see you ever again"!

She storms off to chase after me but I'm quicker and take my leave before she exists and spots me I quickly run across the streets in a flash passing by cars and people . Run past tall buildings and I run across the streets filled with people and finally reach the store that we agreed on named "Mitchel's fast & ludicrous" this place is widely known for having the best guns , swords anything you name it . I stand outside the door and wait for Jackie but suddenly some trouble was brewing beside me .

Thug #1 :"Hey woman watcha doin' er".

Is this guy good .

Thug #2 :"Ya know we could really use ya to warm up our beds".

Woman :"Oh no someone help me"!

wow she could not have said it any blander than that 'it seems like they want my attention' I slowly turn my head to see what the hell they want with me it seems to guys dressed up as thugs and a woman with tall flowing black hair with faint traces of purple at the end of her hair , white skin , yellow eyes , small petite build and uhm....overly sized body proportions and she's wearing purposefully exposing clothes and it seems like it's causing a ruckus with the people nearby .

Thug #1 :"....".

Thug #2 :"....".

Woman :"...".

They all stair blank faced at me waiting for my response I sigh deeply .

Sakura :"The weather is good".

I look the other way but I still feel them all continue to stare blank faced at me it really feels uncomfortable .

Sakura :"Want do you want".

The tall bald black man wearing shades leans against the young woman and I could hear him whisper to her .

Thug #1 :"Uhm madam he isn't falling for it".

The young white man that looks like a PVC pipe whispers to her .

Thug #2 :"Should we change our plans"?

And ofcourse the woman is as red as a tomato with a vein pooping out of her face .

Woman :"You knew from the start right".

I nod my head .

Woman :"Then why didn't you say anything".

Sakura :"That's a trap anyone could see that from a mile away now excuse me if your done here fuck off before I make you".

I turn back at them to gaze at their face and they held up quit nicely .

Woman :"Ahem the lady wants to meet with you".

Sakura :"If you wanted to talk then set a date and a meeting place not this".

Woman :"Bu..".

Jackie :"Mr. devil"!

I slap my helmet at everyone's stupidity in this god damn city Jackie runs up to me panting and not looking in the best condition .

Jackie :"I'm *panting* sorry".

'She couldn't let it go huh' I grab her shoulder and look at her face her make up is fucked and her exhausted appearance makes it look like I almost killed her .

Jackie :"Huh Mr. devil what are you doi..".

I cut her off I grab my scarf and wipe her her tears and sweat off I let go of her face .

Sakura :"Take better care of yourself don't make me look like the bad guy here".

She blushes a little and turn my back and enter the store .

Jackie :"W..wait please don't run off".

She quickly chases after me as I open the store's door I stand still and look back at the three buffoons .

Sakura :"Tell her this "You want to see me come yourself instead of the clowns" now then nicely fuck off".

I let Jackie in first and shortly after follow her inside leaving the two men and woman outside in the sun .
