Chapter 17: Acending to the trees part 2
" So, what landmark should we go to first?" Tori asked his partner.
" I think we need to talk.." Honey told him.
" *sigh* if it's about Rosé, I don't want to talk about it" Tori told her.
" But Tori, you two fight alll the time" she said extending her words to add emphasis.
" If were gonna complete this mission, we need to work together!" She told me.
" And we are. She's doing her job, I'm doing mine. This way we still get the job done and I don't have to face her" Tori told her.
" You can't avoid her forever" Honey told me.
" Well I can damn try- *stops in his tracks*" Tori said.
" What's wrong?" Honey asked.
" We need to move carefully..." Tori said with no emotion looking at her with soulless eyes.
" W-what? Why?" Honey asked.
" Trust me..." Tori said taking her hand. When they were alone Tori closed and opened his eyes. Life had returned to them.
" What is going on with you?" Honey asked blushing.
" We're being watched" Tori quietly told her. Honey's eyes widened.
" Wh-what?" She asked.
" Look, where I'm from, you always have to watch your back. All the time if you wanna survive. I've been attacked plenty of times to know that when you're being watched like that *pulls up shirt and sweater to reveal back* someone's out to kill you" Tori said reaveling a large scar on his back.
" What happened to you..." Honey asked reaching out to him.
" Nothing- "
"DON'T GIVE ME NOTHING!" Honey spoke in a Scottish accent clearly angered.
Tori looked away.
" Muda.... (useless)" he muttered.
" Huh?" Honey responded.
" It's muda to explain... Come on *smiles* we got a reject to find!" He said running.
" Tori.... how badly have you been hurt?"

Lyrics
( There's a point where it tips
There's a point where it breaks
There's a point where it bends
And a point we just can't take
Anymore
There's a line that we'll cross
And there's no return
There's a time and a place
No bridges left to burn
Anymore!
We can't just wait
With lives at stake
Until they think we're ready
Our enemies are gathering
The storm is growing deadly!
Now it's time to say goodbye
To the things we loved
And the innocence of youth!
How the time seemed to fly
From our carefree lives
And the solitude and peace we always knew!)
Tsuki's POV
" So.... do we even know what Itsuki looks like?" I asked. Rosé threw her phone to me revealing a photo of a tall green haired asian man.
" That's him. Think you can give a description of him?" Rosé asked me.
" Y-yeah..." I answered.
" Good, it says here that Itsuki is often seen at a herbs and spices shop just around the corner here" Rosé explained to me.
As we literally turned on a corner, we approached a small local market. It was a very formal Japanese style market. It had a banner saying :
晴れ、雨、雪の日のハーブとスパイス ( Sunny, Rainy, Snowy day Herbs and Spices).
It had a logo that appears as a circle with 1/3 being part of the sun, another third being a rain cloud and the remaining third being a snowflake.
" Tsuki, do you know what that reads?" Rosé asked me.
" U-uh yeah. Sunny, Rainy, Snowy day Herbs and Spices" I told her.
" This is what were looking for" Rosé said staring harder at the sign.
" C'mon lets go in... Im getting a bad feeling from being out in the open"
I followed her as we walked in.
But then the lights shut off.
" Son of a bitch!" Rosé shouted.
What we saw next was truly horrific.
We saw a Japanese woman with black hair in a kimono dead on the floor.
I screamed as loud as possible.
" Damn it...." Rosé muttered clenching her fist.
I then noticed a red line illuminating from a dark hallway. I didn't notice it until two seconds later.
" AH!" I jumped to the side as a gun was fired at me.
" For fucks sake!" Rose said sliding underneath a table as I did the same.
"I really hope Tori and Honey are doing better than we are right now"

Lyrics
Maybe I don't know what to do
Hurry up, my mind is on the moon
Flying up to where the wind blew
In my hands awakens
The passion overflowing
Just wandering through this world
Your one shining pure
Could never be pierced with a rusty knife
I am burning like a fire gone wild
The moment an arrow shot through my heart
The noise plaguing me was released
Everything was different from that moment on
If I don't try, I'll never know
"Why do flowers bloom?"
Your voice echoes
Tell me why
I just shouted to the sky
But you are no no no longer here, that's right?
That day we confirmed that life
You can call it a fleeting dream if you want
But I'll save you from a wounded today
