"You look tired Reina, something on your mind?" Risa asked me, concerned. Well, of course something's on my mind. I've been sitting down like this for how long? And also, I have to face Yossie and Miki. Yes, them. "Um, Reina? Reina..." Risa kept shaking me until I had her full attention. She's going to give me a headache if she keeps doing that to me. "What?" I muttered under my breath. I was a little dizzy, and I made a mental note to myself:
Pay attention to Risa, or you will get dizzy.
Ai-chan's voice interrupted my thoughts. "Can you guys shush? My parents would kill me if they see you two here." She threw a pillow at us, and she laid back down. She was quiet the entire time we were here. "Well, is something on your mind Ai-chan?" I asked, throwing the pillow back at her. "I feel a little weak." she replied, putting the pillow to the side. Oh yeah, how could I forget?
I opened the window and climbed out. But before I closed the window, I asked, "Are you going to take care of her Risa?" "Yes, yes, Reina." Risa replied, stroking Ai-chan's hair. "Okay." I closed the window and jumped off of the tree branch.
The scenery wasn't pretty. The grass was damp, the streets were slippery, but at least the sidewalk was fine. Being the messenger sucks. I'm not late for anything when I have meetings with Yossie and Miki. They're always too busy whenever I arrive on time.
The black hue in the sky suddenly turned to a dark blue color. Okay, so maybe I am arrive a little later than usual, but Yossie and Miki won't mind it, right?" Trying not to panic, I started to take deep breaths. This was kind of helping until I got to the building. I took my last deep breath and went inside.
This time I didn't even bother asking for Yossie and Miki. The only thing I was focusing on was their office. I opened the door, seeing the two shuffling through papers and stuff and then looking up at me. "Tanaka," Yossie glared at me, her tone was loud. "Reina." Miki greeted, groping me. Crap, I'm going to be yelled at and I've been Miki'd. "Hi to the both of you?" I put on an innocent smile, trying to lighten the office since the atmosphere was a little awkward and dark.
"Anyway," Yossie shook her head, pointing to the seat across from her. I sat down in it, gluping. She can be scary at times, and you don't want to be scared of her. "Has Eri been fully recovered again?" "Yes she has," I replied, nodding. "She doesn't really remember a thing expect that she knows about us being vampires." Yossie and Miki looked down at a folder that was filled with information. "You do know that tracker demons tend to pick up more than that, right?" Miki asked me, sliding the folder on the table from their side to my side. "No, I didn't know that." I shook my head, reading carefully.
Name: Kamei Eri
Date of Birth: December 23, 1988
Bloodtype: AB
Class: Human
Aquantinces: Michishige Sayumi, born July 13, 1989, Class: Human; Takahashi Ai, born September 14, 1986, Class: Vampire.
10 PM: Kamei, possessed, was walking in the street toward the Takahashi residence until she noticed Takahashi, who was walking outside also. They bumped into each other, and then Kamei text Michishige on her cellphone, to which Michishige didn't reply. Kamei then called.....
"Where did you guys get this information?" I asked, curious. "Do you remember your past trainer?" My eyes stopped in their tracks as I tried to think of my trainer. I looked at Yossie and Miki, shocked. "Goto...Maki?" I managed to finally say her name. She tracks down all the information about these tracker demons now? I thought she was training another vampire! "Yep, she seems to have progressed as the messenger." Yossie smiled. Miki rolled her eyes, and muttered under her breath, "Whatever." "So Maki got all this information, but how?" Again, I'm always curious as to how things work around here. "You'll see when you get to be in her position." Miki replied. She was already getting sick of my curiousity. Why do humans say, 'Curiousity kills the cat'?
"Keep the information," Yossie returned the folder. "Niigaki and Takahashi need to know about this too." "Yes." I held the folder in my arms tightly, making sure that nothing falls out of it. "It's nice seeing you again, Reina." Miki emphasized my name before groping me. My eyes went big, and I turned around. Crap, I've been Miki'd again. Oh well, I'll live.
When I got outside, the sky was a little brighter. I quickened my pace, clutching the folder to my chest. If all of the contents fell out, I would be dead by Risa's Reaction Queen moments, and I don't want that.
But I have an odd feeling, that this isn't the last time we will see this tracker demon.

Eh? Why am I up so early? I don't want to wake up early, I want to crawl back in my shell. I pulled the covers over my head to try to go to sleep but I couldn't. I slowly got up, my head spinning in the process. I decided to call Sayu, since she's already hyper in the morning. "Sayu?" I asked when she mumbled an odd greeting. "Do you want to go somewhere?" On her line, I could tell that her voice was breaking while hesitating to answer. "I-I have a date." "With who?" I smirked. I can't believe Sayu has a date. "K-Koharu," Sayu whispered nervously. "Listen Eri, I have to go." Her voice wobbled before hanging up.
"Aw, this sucks." I pouted. Then I guess I have nothing to do today but go shopping. No, that's a good idea! I do need some clothes. "Yes!" I muttered to myself, picking out an outfit and getting dressed. I went downstairs to eat breakfast.
"Eri, hello, are you okay?" My mom greeted me, walking me over to the table. It took me a while to respond. "Oh, yeah, I'm doing alright, I think I'm going to do some shopping today." "Good idea." My father murmured from behind the newspaper that was covering his face. "Just make sure you don't spend too much money on that credit card." My mom warned, pointing at the item I was holding in my hand. I looked down, and quickly put it in my wallet. "Don't worry, I won't spend too much." I laughed, eating my cereal.
After all, I do have a day to myself, but I'm wondering why Sayu is scared. I think I'll talk to her about it later.
