"'Ma'am we need to get to the construction section of this hotel. If you prevent us from doing so thats obstruction of justice. And I'm not afraid to charge you." Said Mr.Miyuki. "Fine go ahead, better then being sued for letting yall past without a warrant." Said the woman. Mr.Nakayama looked frustrated, but not as annoyed as Mr.Miyuki who was feeling his temples. Mr.Nakayama looked over to Brandon and Jun who were standing and looking at the stairway. Brandon turned his head slightly to him, Mr.Nakayama gave a small nod before looking back at Mr.Miyuki and the staff woman.
Brandon then opened the door and ran up the stairs "Brandon! What the-" Jun looked over to see her father was occupied, she hesitated but then ran up the stairs after him. "Brandon! Get back here now!" Jun shouted as she ran after him.
"And miss out on the chance the get ahead in the case? I don't think so." Brandon said. "This is breaking am entering because we have no warrant! We can't just search this place!" Jun said.
"Oh come on, whats stopping you?" Brandon asked. "The law." Jun answered. Brandon thought about that for a moment. "Well what about anything more then that." Brandon asked. "No, thats the main one. I'm not looking to let my dad down because you want to go and play lone wolf." She said.
"But I'm not, I have you." Brandon said, his voice sounding more reassuring and confident. Which caused Jun's view to become a little more conflicted. She folded her arms. "Shes a tough nut. But I think I can crack that shell. Kibe's reveal of having a girlfriend has made her frail, if just a bit. That should help me with getting her to get off my back." Brandon thought as he then scratched his cheek.
"Look, I-"
"Are you sure?" She asked. Brandon looked at her suprised. "Are you sure we'll find this Juo guy and solve the case. You're 100% sure?" She asked. Brandon didn't give a second thought and nodded. She sighed as she looked back down the stairs. She had a worried look on her face before she shook it off and then marched past Brandon.
"Come on, lets go." She said. Brandon nodded as he followed her. Meanwhile Kibe fell to the ground in the alley after trying to scale the wall. He noticed a police care pass by the alleyway, which he rolled over to hide away from them. He then turned to see they were gone. He sat up and then got up. "...She's gonna die if I do nothing! Himmy...you're trapped up there all by yourself with that creep! And all the police can do is sit on their hands and let the chaos go on. Come damnit! Come on Kibe! Do something by yourself for once. JUST. GET. UP. AND. MO-"
"Hey Nori." Said Bato's voice, Kibe then opened his eyes and looked around. "Down here." He said. Kibe then looked down to where he saw Bato staring up at him with Piko and Junna doing the same. Kibe had ended up ontop of the wall, without him even noticing.
"Did we just see him jump that? That wall is close to 20ft high. Is this the power of the machine? Superhuman capabilities?" Junna thought.
"What are you doing here?"Bato asked as Kibe jumped down, he did a small roll before getting to his feet. "You must know right? Your supposed to be better then me afterall." Kibe said. Bato raised an eyebrow.
"Sarcasm? He's being antagonistic first. What is this?" Bato thought. "Look, I don't have time for any of your games. As much as I'd fancy a back and forth with you, I have somewhere important to be." Kibe said as he walked past him. Bato side-eyed him before turning. "And where would that be? You didn't answer my question." Bato asked.
Kibe sighed as he turned to him. "How about the place closest to; none of your damn business." Kibe said. Junna stared at Bato and Kibe. Bato looked at her too and then Kibe. Kibe saw their eyes. "If you're going to have her try and stop me go ahead." Kibe said.
"Try?" Bato said
"I'm not in the mood for your games today. So unless you think you need another missing pawn, go ahead. Say the word." Kibe said. The two stared one another down. Bato didn't have a interest in bothering Kibe today, but he did also not like the fact that Kibe in this moment was completely alien to him right now. Infact, he was so different that Bato's mind couldn't even register this man as Kibe. Whoever this was, wasn't his main priority. Bato waved his hand and turned away. Junna clenched her teeth before moving out of the way of the door. Kibe then walked away and into the hotel.
"...What the hell was that?" Piko asked a bit putt off by the whole encounter. "The better question to ask...
Is who." Bato said.
Jun and Brandon raced up the floors, Jun checked each hallway but each was covered with doors to rooms and each was a landmine of choices. Each floor, which should they go down. Jun closed the door leading to the 12th floor. "DAMNIT! We're not going to find them like this. There has to be a way to find out which room it is they're in." Jun said as she began to think. Brandon stopped at the stairs to the next floor his mind thinking, but then he stopped. "Stop that." He said. Jun looked at him.
"What?" She said
"Stop thinking, thats our problem. We're trying to think for someone who doesn't at all." Brandon said. Thats when him and Jun both figured out the answer.
"The 2nd floor!" They both shouted. Brandon then slowly lifted his hand up for a high five, but Jun just immediately ran downstairs. Brandon tried not to seem hurt by being left hanging like he was, but he was. Eventually they both arrived at the second level of the construction section of the hotel. Brandon and Jun saw there were two hallways, one to the left and one to the right. Jun took the left and Brandon the right. Brandon ran down the hall, he looked back to make sure Jun was out of ear shot. He then called out.
"KAT!" Brandon shouted. As he passed by a few rooms, he then heard a door open behind him. He turned to see Kat standing right behind a few feet away. She had bruises on her face ad body, but was still relatively standing. Brandon and her stared at one another.
"Kat...its over." Brandon said. Kat smirked before she then pulled out the gun she had stolen from Brandon before, Brandon put his hands up.
"I'm not going to exist in your world. Not anymore." She said, but before she could fire at Brandon, the moment the gun went off-
Out of nowhere Himmy rushed her and kicked the gun right out of Kat's hand, Kat then grabbed the knife at her side and went for a stab at Himmy's leg. However Himmy dropped to the ground like a stone and as quick as one too. She then went for a leg sweep tripping Kat. Himmy then got up and punched Kat aginst the ground before jumping back nearly bumping into Brandon.
"Black Fox." Brandon said, Himmy sneered a bit at the name and her being caught. "Fuck." She thought. Kat then got up shakily before steadying herself against the hallway wall. She chuckled to herself.
"I'm going to kill both of you, and then use your corpses to make a pie for the neighbors." Kat smirked. "Crazy Bitch." Himmy said.
"No kidding." Brandon said. Jun who was down the hall at the other hallway noticed what was going on. "He found her!" Jun then called her father and began to race over. Mr.Nakayama got off the radio and then motioned for the officers to follow him.
Back in the hallway with Brandon, Himmy and Kat. They all were at a stand-off. All of them with their own motives. Himmy couldn't let Brandon get to Juo, Brandon needed to get to Juo and Kat wanted to kill the both of them. Across the hotel though Kibe was running to make it to where all the action was going down. He then heard noises down the hall at the ground level and hid behind a wall as he saw officers running upstairs. He then looked up. "Himmy..." Kibe thought. He then saw a fire alarm near him.
"I need to get to that room, Juo is the key to this entire investigation." Brandon thought.
"I need to take both of them out as quickly as possible and jet this place." Himmy thought.
"I won't let them end my fun!" Kat thought as she gripped her knife tightly before bolting towards them, but not before she heard the thundering footsteps of another person behind her. She turned her head only to see Jun mere inches behind her. Kat's eyes widened as she then was kicked in the jaw by Jun, the power of her one kick sounded like a shotgun had just went off. Kat went flying right over Brandon and Himmy, both of the two in complete shock at what they saw. Kat landed on the hard carpet ground with a loud thud. Himmy was too frozen to even stop Brandon who would run past her and into the room.
"Jun-"
"Go, I'll take care of them." Jun said as Brandon nodded and entered the room. Kat struggled to breathe. Much less get up. Himmy looked at Jun. The two facing each other.
"Are you with her or did she kidnap you too?" Jun asked. Himmy wasn't sure what to say.
"...Yes, thank you so much for saving me! This bitch is crazy! I need you're help! Please let me go and run to my family!" Himmy said. Jun just looked at her. "You're Humiko right?" Jun asked. Himmy was frozen, how the hell did they get her name!? She didn't know what to say once again.
"You were orphaned years ago, you don't have any family contacts or relatives really alive. Seems suspicious that you'd lie to me in our first encounter." Jun said. Himmy remained silent. But Kat, she got up and looked at Jun with a smile.
"Heheh, thats because she's working with him. Thats because she's the black fox. She's with the white rabbit!" Kat smiled. Jun's eyes widened. But then she had to reel herself in. She couldn't trust the words of a psychotic woman. Himmy on the other hand was ready to knock Kat out.
It didn't matter if Jun didn't believe it. The fact was that she had just placed doubt in Jun's mind. Now Himmy was more then screwed and, now Jun had a face for the plausible mistress of the white rabbit. Jun put her hands out calmly. "Alright, lets be steady now. No need for any more violence. You're both coming with me quietly and smooth-" however Himmy would immediately blitz over to Jun faster then she could react and would deliver a devastating gut punch to Jun.
But, it didn't sink in as far as she thought. It almost was like a hard jell. Himmy looked up at Jun who was less then impressed, Jun then kicked Himmy in the stomach and the attack sent Himmy smashing aginst the ceiling before falling to the ground. Jun then pinned her down, Himmy's hands were unable to move. She was still winded from the attack.
"NO! IS THIS REALLY THE END DAMNIT!!!" Himmy thought, her voice desperately grunting as she tried to get free. The only thing on her mind was how she failed Kibe...how he put all of his faith and trust into her and yet she failed him. Jun got her handcuffs out, but as she did Kat would jump on her and stab Jun right in the back. Jun screamed as she kicked Kat back, Himmy got her legs free and immediately pushed off of Jun freeing herself too.
All three of the girls all standing off aginst one another. Himmy backed away a bit as she got ready to fight, Jun felt her back and saw the blood on her hand. She grunted as she looked at both Himmy and Kat. Kat licked her knife as she stared at Jun and then to Himmy.
Thats when-
A loud sound went ringing out across the entire building.
"What?
-The fire alarm?" Jun said.
