Shai took Himeko away and pulled out her phone
"Sh-shai what are you doing?" Himeko asked
"Shut up and keep walking" Shai said with a slight harsh tone. Himeko held Pucchi closely and whimpered a bit
Something's not right...
They got to the house and Shai closed the door locking it
"Oh...so you have her all free? So she can move around an escape?"
Escape huh? Maybe Aihara is right...it's best if I upgrade the door too. Just like Mei's...and maybe...
Shai looked at Himeko and smiled
Keep her tied up...in the basement...where I left her...
"Shai...is everything okay?" Himeko asked
"What the hell was that?" Shai asked as she looked down
"Wh-what?" Himeko asked
"Why the fuck did you leave like that?" Shai asked as she glared at her
"B-because I was trying to help with m-maybe the investigation and...I-I wanted to give Pucchi his morning walks" Himeko said and began to get rid of the outfit. Shai breathed heavily and leaned against the door
'You must do something about this. You may have eyes on this town but...what would happen if she was able to reach the police?'
Shut up...
'You're acting strange...'
Be quiet...
'She'll find out'
No she won't
'Just like she found out...she may not think you're a freak with that dick but...what will her reaction be once she finds out the real you?'
Shut up already!
'Keep her forever or else...she'll be fucking with some other asshole'
"Never..." Shai mumbled
"Wh-what?" Himeko asked as she looked at her
"Never do that again Himeko. You know how dangerous it is for you to step out?" Shai asked
"You mean how dangerous is for you..." Himeko said. Shai's eyes widen and trembled
This bitch...
'See?'
"So you'll accuse me for kidnapping you?" Shai asked as she laughed
"Wh-what? No it's not wh-what I meant" Himeko said as she looked down. Shai walked up to her and grabbed Himeko by her shoulder
"H-huh?" Himeko said and gasped
"If they find you and ask you what happened? Will you accuse me?" Shai asked as she looked at her with cold eyes. Pucchi barked and started biting her ankles. Shai looked down at the dog and growled
"Toshio" Shai said. Pucchi barked and looked to the side seeing the bigger dog. Toshio snarled at Pucchi and got close to him
"W-wait!" Himeko said and trembled as Shai tightened her grip on her shoulder. She whimpered as she slowly fell on her knees. Toshio bit down on Pucchi's neck pinning him down
"W-wait! Please don't kill him!" Himeko shouted as tears built up in her eyes
"Toshio...stop" Shai said. Toshio stopped tightening his grip but kept pinning Pucchi down by holding him by the neck. Himeko looked up at Shai seeing her cold eyes
"Wh-why are you d-doing this?" Himeko asked
"Let's talk somewhere else..." Shai said as she made Himeko stand with her two legs taking her to a room
"Pl-please don't hurt me..." Himeko whimpered
"Don't tell me what to do..." Shai said as she opened the door revealing a dark room
"Wh-where are you taking m-me?" Himeko asked
"To the basement..." Shai said and giggled
"I-I'm sorry! I won't get out of the house ever again! Just please let me go! I'll behave!" Himeko said and cried
"Hehehe...I love it when they beg. Hopefully you'll survive...stupid bitch" Shai said and pushed Himeko into the basement. Himeko's eyes widen and fell hard on the concrete floor. Her vision began to blur and trembled
"H-help...me..." Himeko mumbled before blacking out. Shai looked down at the basement and let out a laugh
"Hmm...I should've just killed you the first time" Shai said and started banging her head on the wall
"Hehehehe stupid dick..." Shai growled. Pucchi whimpered and Toshio kept growling at him
"Right" Shai said and walked up to the two dogs
"Alright Toshio. Let him go" Shai said. Toshio released him and Shai grabbed Pucchi. Pucchi barked and tried biting her
"Time to retrain you little buddy. No more fancy outfits for you. You'll be a killing machine" Shai said and took him to a dog cage. She put him in the cage and locked it
"Now be a good boy. I'll be training you" Shai said and kicked the cage. Toshio barked and that's when Shai's two pups came
"Hey Ryo and Kyo. Time to eat" Shai said and smiled softly. Ryo and Kyo barked at her as they jumped excitedly. Shai giggled and petted their heads softly
"You two will grow up to be strong killers" Shai said and giggled

"They haven't found anything..." Celeste said and pulled out a cigarette
"Smoking won't help" Soha said
"I haven't been smoking a lot" Celeste said and sighed
"But still...it's bad for you" Soha said
"Yeah stop being my mom" Celeste said and looked at her hand
"We can't stop looking for her" Soha said
"Yeah I know..." Celeste said and looked at the sky
"So...how have you been doing with that monster?" Soha asked
"Do you really have to ask?" Celeste asked as she looked at her
"Well I just want to know how you're doing? Still struggling?" Soha asked
"Pretty much..." Celeste said
"Hopefully you'll get the hang of it" Soha said
"Yeah hopefully..." Celeste said
"Have you seen Alyssa?" Soha asked
"No...not after that day and I hope we never see her again" Celeste said
"You know she'll come back...for you" Soha said
"Yes. Ugh I just hope she doesn't plan to do some weird shit" Celeste said
"Hmm...well let's go get something to eat just so we can stop thinking about all this" Soha said
"Okay" Celeste said. Soha and Celeste walked down the streets together passing by a few shops. Celeste looked by a store and trembled
Why...why now?
Flashback
"Babe let's go" Alyssa said and held out her hand. Celeste blushed and held her hand
"A-are you okay with th-this?" Celeste asked
"Hm? What do you mean okay with this?" Alyssa asked as she tilted her head
"It's just that...people are watching us" Celeste said as she looked around
"So? Let them watch. I don't care what they fucking think about us" Alyssa said and played with her hair softly. Celeste blushed deeply and looked away. Alyssa giggled and kissed her. Celeste's face turned completely red and pushed Alyssa
"N-not in public!" Celeste said and trembled a bit
"Awww why not babe? Embarrassed?" Alyssa asked and winked at her. Celeste blushed and hugged her
"Let's just go and eat something before they catch us in our school clothes" Celeste said and smiled at her. Alyssa blushed and smiled
"Sure thing babe" Alyssa said and held her hand. She took Celeste to an ice cream shop to buy her an ice cream
"Thanks Alyssa for buying me ice cream" Celeste said
"Anytime babe" Alyssa said and held her hand. She kissed it softly and smiled softly
"I love you Celeste" Alyssa said
"I-I love you too Alyssa" Celeste said as she blushed feeling embarrassed
"You're so cute when you blush Celeste" Alyssa said and gigged softly
"Y-you're the cutest Alyssa. I mean...everyone pretty much has a crush on you. Maybe...there are better attractive people that will make a perfect partner for you" Celeste said as she looked down. Alyssa stopped and cupped her cheek
"Don't start talking like Celeste. I love you just the way you are. I don't want no one else but you" Alyssa said and kissed her nose
"Y-you do?" Celeste asked
Of course. I love you with all my heart. I will never choose someone else" Alyssa said and gave her a soft kiss. Celeste blushed deeply and smiled softly
"Let's stay together forever" Celeste said
End Of Flashback
"Celeste? You alright?" Soha asked
"Y-yes. I'm fine. I was just...thinking I guess" Celeste said and sighed
"Let me guess...you were thinking about her right?" Soha asked
"Wh-what? Uh n-no. Not at all" Celeste said as she looked away
"Celeste you know it's okay to admit it" Soha said
"Ugh...I don't want to fucking think about her anymore. I hate her so much..." Celeste growled
"Yeah I think I understand" Soha said
"What about you?" Celeste asked
"What about me?" Soha asked
"Have you ever thought of her?" Celeste asked. Soha sighed and looked down
"Sometimes but not so often" Soha said
I hate Jinah...
"I'm happy with my life. I have two wonderful girls and a loving husband" Soha said
"That's nice...wish I had something like that" Celeste said
"Oh...Damon?" Soha asked
"That asshole is a piece of shit..." Celeste said
"Why didn't you divorce him years ago?" Soha asked
"My stupid family..." Celeste said and gritted her teeth
"Right...them" Soha said
"I wish I could just get rid of them. They're the reason why my little sister is gone..." Celeste said
"Hey it'll be okay" Soha said
"Sure hope so. My father will probably be pissed since he wants me to spread our family name...but why should I? He has that stupid son of his. He'll do whatever he wants" Celeste said
"Right" Soha said. Suddenly a couple of kids ran pass them
"Hey you pieces of shit! Get back here!" The pink haired girl said
"Come on Matsuri-chan! Catch us!" Her friend said
"Hehe I'll get you guys!" Matsuri said and laughed. Soha froze as she stared at the little Mizusawa
Wh-why...why does she...l-look just like her. Could it be...? Is she...r-really her...
Celeste noticed Soha's expression and shook her a bit
"Soha? Soha snap out of it" Celeste said shaking her a bit aggressively
"A-ah! Oh! C-celeste?" Soha asked
"Hey you alright?" Celeste asked concerned
"Y-yeah...I think I'm okay" Soha said as she rubbed her head then glanced at the pink haired girl who kept chasing her friends
"You noticed too huh?" Celeste asked
"Yeah...it seems this is Jinah's girl" Soha said
"Heh she looks just like her. Should we ask?" Celeste asked
"No. I don't want to think about her now" Soha said
"Very well" Celeste said
"We should get going. I don't want to stay here" Soha said and started walking. Celeste followed her and walked beside her. On their way the two women were stopped by another women
"Soha Taniguchi and Celeste Momokino?" The woman asked
"Wh-what?" Celeste asked
"Hey how the hell do you know our names?" Soha asked confused
"I'll explain later. Please follow me" The woman said as she walked pass them. Soha and Celeste looked at the woman and at each other
"Should we?" Soha asked
"Probably? I mean maybe she wants to help us" Celeste said
"How can you just trust her?" Soha asked
"We have those things on our side. We can attack if something's not right" Celeste said
"Right..." Soha said. The woman looked at them and signalled them to follow her
"Let's just get this over with" Soha said
"Okay" Celeste said. Soha and Celeste followed the mysterious woman heading to an alley
"Soha...is this okay?" Celeste asked in a whisper voice
"I'm not sure. I don't know what the hell she wants..." Soha whispered. The woman stopped and turned around to look at them
"What?" Soha asked. She gasped as she heard someone from behind and saw a teenage girl behind them
"Hi big sis" The girl said. The woman only groaned and held out small spheres
"Hey what the hell is going on?" Soha asked
"What do you want?" Celeste asked as she glared at her
"We must talk with you both" The woman said
"Talk about what?" Soha asked
"First...who are you?" Celeste asked
"My name is Liana Nagemine" Liana said
"And I'm Hana Nagemine!" Hana said as she smiled
"Hana..." Liana groaned
I told her to stay home
"Alright so...why are you here? How do you know us?" Celeste asked
"I am here because of Alyssa Nishihara..." Liana said
