okay, here's part 2. Usual disclaimers and all that stuff (i don't own the character's but the story is ALL mine). this is rated PG-13 'cause of the excessive language. Oh, thanks for all the nice comments, from all you fanfic readers, about The Removal of Tuxedo Kamen. If the language in this story bothers any of you sweet little angels (ahhh not the lightening again, i don't lie on purpose it's lucy's fault ) okay i'm back, though a little on the crispy side. anywho let's get on with the story before i get singed again, don't EVER believe the saying 'lightening never strikes the same place twice', i'm living proof that it does. Ah, welcome to the great Battie world there's no turning back now, Grah ah ah nobody ever leaves this place. No no you don't have to leave, i'll be good now (sniff sniff). The Awakening part 2 by battie ****************************************** While I was waiting for the principal to get done talking to Anne and Alan I started thinking of the new boy, Seiya, he was pretty cute. Too bad he probably wouldn't talk to me anymore after what i did to that obnoxious asshole Alan. While it was definitely worth every moment of it. Just then the principal's door opened up, the two misfits walked out with sulky looks on their faces. 'Well, at least they weren't able to con the principal over to their side, that means i still might have a chance,' I thought to myself with a sigh. "Miss Tsukino, please come on in and sit down, go ahead and get comfortable, you'll be here awhile." Mr. Higawa (don't ask i made it up) told me politely. "Don't mind if I do," I said a tad sarcastically. "Now, I want to know why your always getting into these fights Usagi-san. Are you having trouble out of school? If you keep getting into these fights I'm going to have to expel you from this school, as it is you have a week of suspension. Now, don't start talking, I know that Anne started it but you have been getting into fights throughout the school year, the school board can't just let you get away from this scott-free." God, I just felt like jumping up and telling him what he could do with his suspension. I mean, look at me. I had chilli all over the front of my school uniform, not that i like the stupid thing, but I'd rather be wearing it than a bowl of chilli. But in the end prudence won, I know that if I got to snappy he'd exact a harsher punishment, it's always better to act the angel than the devil. "I appreciate you going easy on me Mr. Higawa," pushing the words out of my face and putting a smile on my face almost killed me. Higawa smiled at my politeness, if he hadn't seen me fighting with his own eyes on several occasions he would have thought me a sweet, and proper young lady. On the way back to my apartment I had plenty of time to think. I never really cared about what happened at school. I don't care about alot of things, one example would be that i don't really care about what happens to Naru. I mean she's my friend and everything but I don't think her leaving or just not being friends with me anymore would really faze me. I never really cared about my parents either, they were always just a source of extreme embarrassment, sometimes when they did something really embarrassing i used to hope that they would just be sucked into the earth and never come back to ruin my life again. Well, that wish certainitly came true, they were definitly not coming back anytime soon. When I was a child of about 12 I used to go off sometimes just to be by myself, I've always hated big crowds of people, I would be able to sit for hours all by myself just looking at the sky and daydreaming about different lifes I wanted to live when I grew older. They usually had me becoming a writer, getting rich, and living in a big house all by myself where there was no one to bother me. I've been seriously thinking of becoming a hermit when I grow old. When I reached my apartment I fixed up some lunch, sit down on my computer and started writing a fanfic for one of my favorite cartoons, Sailor Moon. It was this really funny show about this young girl, who was extremly ditzy. I enjoyed writing the stories to practice my writing skills. When I finally finished the first chapter, sent it in, and went into the kitchen to get some water it was 6 o'clock. 'Hmmm...I think I'm gonna go to the new arcade up the street,' I thougt to myself. I had heard that they had some really cool new video games. Plus I needed to see if anyone had tried to contact me for a job. I had taken up computer hacking a few years ago, it was an exciting job, plus it paid the bills. I was extremly good at it, I had never even gotten close to being caught before. When I got to the arcade Umino, Naru's boyfriend and a fellow hacker, who worked there part-time told me that there was a costumer that wanted to see me about some hacking, this must have been a lucky night, I don't usually get one's that are willing to wait around for me to show up, this one must have been pretty desperate. "Okay Umino-san, where is this costumer?" "He's over in the last booth in the cafe, on the left." "Thanks." As I walk over slowly I spot the person in the booth but I can't make out their facial features. I walk up to the side of the booth and clear my throat lightly, that gets his attention. "Are you the Raven?" I nod silently. I had picked that name because I have always had a certain fasination with death, and as everyone knows Ravens are supposed to represent death. "Please, take a seat." When I sit down I finally get a good look at the man, scratch that I mean young man, one in particular really. "Seiya?!?!?!?!" "Why if little Usagi isn't the great Raven, the best hacker this side of Tokyo," Seiya said laughing. "Well," I say sighing hugely, "what do you want?" "I want you to hack into the computer that contains all of the records of any events that have taken place over the last 20 years in Japan. I'll pay you 10 thousand." I thought about it a minute, if I got caught stealing federal records I could do some serious time. "I'll give you the records on a disk, with a little red bow if you want, ONLY if you raise the pay to 20 thousand, I could get into serious trouble if I get caught doing this." "Done." Seiya exclaimed I sit there in shock as he took a bag from the seat beside him, counted out 20 thousand, in little 1 thousand dollar stacks, and hand them to me in a paper bag. When I had made the deal I had thought he was only joking with my. I'd never made a deal with this much money involved. "Well, I guess we can go over to my place, get my laptop, and go to a safe place to finish this off," I mumered in a dazed voice. On the way to my little apartment we made small talk to ease the tension. I found out that he had admired my fighting skills and wanted to know what else I did well. I told him that I had taken fencing lessons and also knew how to use a broadsword. He was really interested in that. I was so dazed over the money I had just recieved that I missed the specultive gleam in his eyes. The deed itself really didn't take that long at all, after I got to an empty phone line that was basically deserted around it and we could pass unnoticed. I had gotten a really expensive device a few weeks ago that scrambled the signal, after a few alterations of my own, my laptop gave off and let my location stay unknown. I had always gotten an adrenaline rush from hacking into off limit systems, call me sick but it's pretty exciting. I saved all the info on a diskette, gave it to him, and was on my way despite his numerous objections to stick around and go somewhere. ------------------------------------------ a few days later ------------------------------------------ I had deposited the money the day after recieving it, I didn't want to lose it. It was about 11:00 in the morning when I heard a knock on the door. When I opened it up Seiya was outside with a man with long brown hair, I quickly moved aside to let them in. When I turned around Seiya's friend raised a funny looking device, like something out of star trek, I looked at Seiya quickly and he returned my gaze beeshingly. The last thing I felt was a stinging sensation at my neck and everything went black. ****************************************** okay everyone that's it for part 2, see ya next time Battie (battie@mailcity.com) Get your FREE Email at http://mailcity.lycos.com Get your PERSONALIZED START PAGE at http://personal.lycos.com
