I appreciate everyones continued opinions and you have my apologies for not posting more over the last week, but spring break and easter gave me no solid writing time at all. But now that things are back to normal, so on with the story.
After a few more moments Yurimi had quelled her tears and took a seat at Keijiâs bedside.
âYurimi, Iâd like you to meet the newest member of our team, Shira.â Keiji motioned towards Shira, as he introduced her to Yurimi. Shira gave a slight bow to say hello and turned her attention back to Keiji. Noticing Shira's heavenly appearance Yurimi jealously grabbed Keijiâs arm in an attempt to claim his attention away her.
âWhatâs the matter Yurimi?â Keiji asked as she tugged on his arm, almost pulling him off the bed.
âNothing...but donât you think we should be going now. We have things to do!â
âWhat do you mean? I donât remember...â Before Keiji had finished his sentence Yurimi had pulled him out of bed and toward the dressing rooms. Shira gave an awkward look then soon followed them, hiding a small grin. After they had claimed their belongings, they checked out and left the hospital.
âSo Yurimi what are all these things that you had planned?â Yurimi hesitated to answer knowing that she only used that as excuse to pull Keiji away from Shira. Before she could think of anything Shira broke up the moment.
âBefore we go down to Ragol Iâd like to stop and have this gun I found appraised by a tekker.â Keiji nodded in agreement and without a second thought they headed in the direction of the shops. Yurimi walked a little ways behind them with her head bowed in a deep shrug.
âGrrrrr...what am I doing? Why am I getting so worked up over Shira and Keiji? All we are is a team. I donât need to be so clingy with him because sheâs only with us for support with her quest. Yeah, thereâs nothing for me to be worried about. Itâs not like Keiji would be interested in an android over cute, little me...â As Yurimi began to giigle to herself she thudded right into the chest of another Force. She looked up and began to apologize.
âOops! Iâm sorry, I was lost in thought for a second there. Iâm very...sorry...â Yurimiâs words dragged as the force gave a wicked stare with his dark eyes. His black hair hung over his glasses as he leaned over Yurimi.
âYou should really watch where youâre going little girl.â Yurimi cowered at the manâs soft, hissing voice as she tried to shout out to Keiji. The man grasped his hand over her mouth in one quick motion as he continued to speak. âSo youâre Shiraâs new hounds. Itâs funny...you donât look very strong to me. So why would she prefer you over me? Perhaps thereâs more than meets the eye? No, I doubt that. She picked the hunter you travel with, not you. Heâs the true strength behind the pack isnât he?â Yurimi began to cry as she clawed at the manâs hand, trying to break his grip over her mouth.
âAwww...donât cry little girl. Your hero will come soon. Why donât you introduce us?â The man released his grip over her mouth for just long enough for her to shout Keijiâs name once. Hearing the scream, Keiji quickly whipped around and tried to find where Yurimi had gone. He searched the mass of people until he spotted the Force running out of the crowd, dragging Yurimi with him. Keiji gave a shout to Shira and both of them sprinted through the mass of people after Yurimi. The Force ran a long distance through the backways of Pioneer 2 until he came to a stop at one of the dumping facilities. He let his hand off of Yurimiâs mouth and instantly her senses were overwhelmed with the stink of the garbage waiting to be released into space. She grasped her hands over her nose and directed her attention back to the force.
âWhat do you think youâre doing!â shouted Yurimi through the hold she had over her face. The man gave a short a laugh before answering.
âAs I said before, Iâm introducing us to your friend.â As the man finished his words Keiji and Shira burst around the corner. Shira stopped as the man came into view and Keiji ran to Yurimiâs side.
âYurimi! Are you alright? Whatâs going on?â As Keiji turned his attention to Yurimiâs captor, the force let out a high-pitched laugh.
âPriceless! This is just like one of those cheesy action novels where the hero comforts the damsel in distress. Well Hero, itâs about time we introduced ourselves.â Once the man had finished speaking another hunter came up behind Shira, draping one arm around her shoulder.
