Kai smiled to herself. She felt pretty much accomplished, given that she'd been the one to finally knock the guy out. Plus, she found Kuro-chan again. "You okay?" She nodded to Autumn, who was rubbing her neck. A faint red mark had appeared where the guy held her. "Mm," Autumn smiled and nodded. "I'm fine." Kai returned the smile and rolled her own window down, letting the wind blow through her hair. The car resumed its usual silence. Misaki, or 'Mimorin', as Kuro-chan had called her, turned the radio on. "Viva La Vida" by Coldplay rang out, and TJ cranked up the volume so it blasted. "I never knew you guys had these songs here!" Kai grinned. "What are you talking about? This is a classic!" Soon the car was filled with singing, and it was almost as it they weren't in a life-or-death situation after all. "In 50 meters, turn left. Then, you have reached your destination," The GPS suddenly voiced loudly with its robotic voice. It was almost drowned out by the radio. "Turn left, turn left!" Kai shouted and laughed as TJ veered a sharp left, barely making the turn. "Woohoo~!" Autumn said eagerly. "We're almost there!" "Finally!" Kuro-chan poked her head out of the window. Outside, it was all dark and black. In the near distance, a neon light glowed "NEW MIRDORA ACUTE FILMS INC.". The Jeep turned onto its parking lot and came to a stop. "Let's go!"

Kai looked down at the address in her hand. She looked up at the hotel. "Guess this is it.." She pushed the front door open and walked right in. Suddenly, their watches stopped beeping. The bunny's voice started rambling on about stuff. So someone's already at HQ..? She glanced at Autumn. We should be going there too..Then she thought of Kuro-chan and took a deep breath. But.... She propped herself at the front register desk. There was a plump lady there, reading the paper. "Excuse me..?" The lady looked up with bored eyes. "Could you tell me what room my friend..." She looked back down at the piece of paper in her palm. "Misaki Mimori is?" "...." "Could you please tell me in which room my friend Misaki Mimori is?" She repeated her question, this time with a more serious tone. The lady seemed reluctant to answer, so Kai sighed and flashed her beeping watch at her. The lady's eyes widened. "Sh-She's in room 2013.." She stuttered. Kai smiled. "Thank you," She replied before going to the elevator, Autumn right behind her. "20th floor, huh.." it was the highest floor in the hotel. She pressed the button and waited. "So," She began, looking for something to say while they were lifted up. Ding~ The doors opened. ...That was...quick.. In walked a man dressed in a trench coat. Oh. Nevermind..it was only the 7th floor.. With the man in the elevator, Kai and Autumn stayed quiet....except for their watches. Kai had almost gotten used to their beeping, but in the small closed space, the beeping seemed freakishly loud. The man looked at them from the corner of their eye, especially at Autumn's who was right beside him. All of a sudden, the man lashed out at her with a knife and held her in a headlock, the knife inches from her throat. He smirked. Kai gasped and felt herself freeze. She returned that man's evil smirk with a look of hatred. "Are you a hunter..?" She asked him. "What do you think?" He pressed his blade against Autumn's throat. The timer on his watch flashed. 00:05:00 Kai's thoughts ran through her head. I'm guessing the timer has something to do with his killing...which means he has 5 minutes to kill a prey...I need to save Autumn! "I'm not sure about that, but what I am sure about is..." She suddenly leaped at him with a great ferocity and kicked him between his legs. He cried out and in that split second, loosened his grip. "You don't ever hurt my friend..!" Autumn tried to push her way out, but he tightened his hand right before she could free herself. Ding~ Right then, the doors opened. It was the 20th floor. There was a huge window with a big view outside. There was something black outside it. As she looked closer, she realized it was a crow. Autumn's eyes widened when she saw the crow. "Run.." Autumn managed to say, struggling under the man's grip. "Never." Kai jumped at the man again, but this time, the man grabbed her wrist. "Not so fast, missy!" He laughed. Suddenly, she felt something by her ear. It was burning hot. "Ahh!" It was her earring. Using her free hand, she undid her earring and looked at it. The red stone was glowing. This time, she held it at the end, and pushed the earring on his face. "ARGHH!" He screamed, his hands loosening and going up to cover his face. "You little...!" Kai turned and regained her distance. Autumn finally got free as well, and she ran outside the elevator. The earring was still glowing, and the man, having recovered a bit from the burn, started walking towards them. "You will not get away..." He growled. "What?!" There was someone there. Autumn gasped. "Sakila!?" Kai turned and saw Kuro-chan with two other guys. "What..What are you doing here??" Despite the situation, she couldn't stop herself from smiling. Outside, a crow screeched.

From behind the bush, Kuro-chan and Automn appeared and stood beside Kai. "I can help one on you. I got a plan." The mysterious man said. A plan? "Hey you short with hair. I choose you because... I don't know." he continued. ..Excuse me? Talk about being bossy.. The man hopped out from his car and opened back door. "And if you are thinking am I a hunter, answer is yes. But if I would like to kill you, we wouldn't be talking right now." Kai was just going to say something, but Kuro-chan was faster. "Sure, why not? These two were getting annoying anyway." Huh? Kai thought. I thought she was our friend... Kuro-chan turned to Kai and smirked at her, and then got into the car. Kai looked at them sadly as they drove away. *BEEEEEEEEEP* Wha... Kai looked down. Her watch had started to beep. "Heya!" The bunny's voice came from the watch. Kai jumped from the suddenness of it. "Don't need to be shocked or scaarrreedd, I'm just here to relay a message~~~ Weehee~ WELL, THING IS... IT SEEMS LIKE SOME OF THE SPONSORS TOOK A LIKING TO YOU~ MY DEAR~~~~" .....What? Kai shot a confused look at Automn. "As to whyyyyyyy... I'm not that sure~~ Perhaps you're pretty? KYAHAHAHAHA~ I dunno~! THEY ARE ONE GROUP OF PERVERTIC BUNCH IN THE FIRST PLACE~~~ Keehyahyahya!" ...Ugh...Kai cringed. She hated perverts. "ANYWAY, they wanna give you AN ITEM~~~ SEE IF YOU WANNA USE IT~! KUUFUUFUU~~~ There's a ITEM button on your watch right? CLICK ON IT AND YOU CAN RETRIEVE THE GIFT. TRY IT." Kai looked at the watch, and sure enough, there was a button labeled 'ITEM' on its side. She hesitantly pressed it. Something like an earring came out and tumbled into her hand. The bunny continued. "I DON'T KNOW HOW THAT IS USED SO YOU WILL HAVE TO FIGURE IT OUT YOURSELF. It might even be JUNKKKKKKKK~ Nyahaha!!! Well, good luck~" *BEEP* With that, the watch went silent again. "Well." Kai said. She didn't really know what to do with the earring. "Uhmmm....." She twirled it in her hand. It was a white kind of circle, with a red border on it. She was just going to say that she didn't even have ear piercings, but then realized that these earrings didn't seem to need them. Looking at Automn, she gently put them on her ear. "How does this work..?" She said, just as a 'click' sounded, and the magnetic earring stuck on to her ear. "Ah." Nothing happened. To tell the truth, Kai was a little disappointed. She was pretty excited to see what it would do, but it seemed to just be a simple earring. "Oh well," She said. "...Maybe it'll be useful later?" She sighed and turned to go, when something caught her eye. "What's this?" She said as she bended over. There was a piece of paper lying on the grass, neatly folded. Kai picked it up. There was an address on the sheet. Kai showed it to Automn. She seemed to have recognized it. "I think it's that piece of paper that other person gave Sakila..." She said. Kai felt some relief. Maybe Kuro-chan deliberately left it for us to find? Then would this mean that she actually didn't betray us? But....with her in such a car, how are we ever supposed to find her? She looked down at the paper once again. "There's only one thing to do now..." She said. "Go there."

Kai was still looking at the ring when the girl from earlier walked up to them. "Hey, guys," she said. "Hi~" Kai turned to her. "Um... we've seen each other before, haven't we? And, I was thinking, since we're all being "hunted"... um... how about stick together, or at least help each other out?" Kai smiled. "Sure! That sounds great!" She said. "I was actually going to suggest that too, if you hadn't." Suddenly, a voice came out from somewhere. "Psst. You." Kai frowned. "Did you guys hear that?" They seemed to not have. Huh...I swear I heard someone... "One second, guys..." She lifted her finger to indicate it, and walked around the corner. She peeked around a bush, and saw a man of around his twenties sat inside a Ferarri, windows rolled down. Kai walked hesitantly towards him, opening her mouth, but after a second of thinking, decided not saying anything. She stopped about 3 meters in front of the car, noting his every movement. What if he's a 'hunter'? She tensed, prepared to run if anything happened.

Ehhh?? DD: No wayy~ Awwww, that sucks..:'< Their songs are awesome...

(Lol xD ..And I never said it was 'soft', I just said it was 'softer'~ XD) "A...ring?" Kuro-chan was smirking. Kai looked around her, at the giant ring. It was definitely huge, probably the largest one she'd ever seen, not that she had seen many. They weren't the type of place she'd go to often. It was also circular, which was puzzling. How did they do that? They'd have to have....circular ropes? She scratched her head. The people around her were awed too. Some of them had their eyes fixed on the stadium surrounding the ring. Circular as well, it seemed to be capable of fitting an entire city. "Huh.." She breathed. "Interesting..." She felt a smirk slowly forming too.

(Loool, we were taking a loong time, eh? XD) ---------------- There was much chatter in the room after the screen turned black. People gathered around the watches, forming groups and discussing things she couldn't make out clearly. Kai looked at the watched she picked up. It looked like an ordinary watch, but in her hands it felt surprisingly light. It was red and black, and read: 2:54pm. Interesting...She thought. 'The Hunt', eh? I'm guessing we're the ones being hunted, with all the robots and everything. I wonder who the 'hunters' are going to be, though... She put the watch on, and heard a 'click' as it locked into place. Then, she glanced around the Room of Choice in which they had so much trouble getting into the first place, and felt a thrill of excitement. She couldn't help it, she was just the type of girl that loved adventures. People had already started to leave. The door had opened, and as though by some kind of magic, the hallways they had gone through outside disappeared. They were instead replaced by darkness. What happened..? Kai wandered over to the door. A few people stayed by the door, and seemed scared to go out. She scanned the room again. There weren't many people left. She couldn't even see the girls she had met earlier. Taking a deep breath, she walked straight into the darkness. Wow...I can't see anything...She smiled to herself. This is...kinda fun! She thought, even though it was a game of life and death. She waved her arms in front of her, trying to maneuver around. She couldn't feel any walls, although she tried to. As the seconds passed, her eyes adjusted, and Kai could see a faint light up ahead. Her own watch glowed too, a faint red. 2:59pm. Suddenly, she bumped into something. "Hey! Watch it!" A guy. "Ah, so sorry.." Kai stuttered. The guy walked away. A second later, she bumped into something again, only this time it was softer. "Ow!" A girl's voice. "Eh? What happened?“ Another girl's voice. "Ah, I'm sorry," Kai said again, but then realized. Heyy..wait a second...I know these voices! "Kuro-chan?" Kai smiled. "And...the other girl!" Right then, all the watches around her beeped. It was soft, but still, but as there were a dozen or so people around her, the 'beep-beep' was distinct. She looked down. It was 3:00 pm. Light flooded all around her at once, blinding her for a second. It was no longer darkness. "Whoa..." As Kai slowly opened her eyes, she was utterly amazed by what she saw. ----- (xP)

"Hi", the girl said. Kai waited for someone else to say something, which only resulted in more silence. ...Awkward...She thought to herself. "Um, have you found the room?" The girl asked. Kai looked sheepishly at the ground. "Not quite yet..." She replied. "And besides, we probably won't be here if we did, right?" She waited a second before continuing. "But we have - well, I have - found some clues..." She looked at Kuro-chan. "I noticed some kind of repeating pattern while we were running." She said. "I think it went something like...left, right, right, left, fork..?" She threw in some hand gestures in there for clarification. "Also, is it just me, or do you feel like either this place is infinitely long, or...maybe the fact that we're running in big circles back and forth?" She chuckled nervously. "Kuro-chan? Have you noticed anything?" She asked. "What about you?" She turned to her new friend.

Ohh, okay then xD ----- "Uhmm...hi?" Kai greeted the newcomer. I wonder... The newcomer was a girl, with straight red hair. She was thin, but not the weak kind. Kai liked her casual style that was much like her own. The girl broke into a smile when she saw them. Looks like she's okay...Kai concluded. She smiled back.

(Wait, just wondering, KKLT-chan, can we hear the announcement too?)

(It's okay, it's okay. xD I just....nevermind. xP It basically ends in the same way anyway, so it's fine xD I actually don't really know who it is now...it can be anyone, if someone want to be it, but yeah, it's all good. C:)

(Wait, I'm confused now....is the other player Snowflake/Automn? Or is it one of the minority people? Because...I was just about to find someone too..^^") ----- "Oi, Megane! This way!" Kai looked at the girl, who was running on her left. "Megane?" Kai laughed. "My name's not 'glasses'! I thought I told you my name already." Hmm...but you never told me yours yet...She thought. I guess I'll just ask her now. "So what's yo---" The girl suddenly took a sharp left. Ah..nevermind then. She quickly followed behind and right there in front of them, was one of those backwards doors. She widened her eyes. "Yo, Kuro-chan, you never told me you knew how this place worked!" Kuro-chan pressed the button. The door silently opened and in front of them stood another 'player'. "...Uhmm, hi?" Kai greeted the newcomer.

Ahahaha, thanks XD But I'm not~ C; I am? Ohh~ I am! Haha, I know right, I'm totally awesome ;DD LOOOL. But thank you!! <333333

The footsteps had gotten a lot closer. Without waiting for the girl's answer, Kai ran. "C'mon!" She yelled behind her shoulder, and soon she heard her follow. Together the girls set out to to search for the 'Room of Choice', as they had been told to find. "I wonder what we're gonna have to chose..." She wondered to herself, as they turned left and right in the maze of the building. With both the huffing of the girls and the thumps of the robots in the background, Kai almost didn't hear the third set of footsteps. But when they had reached yet another fork, she sensed someone behind her. "Wait," She called out to her friend. She stopped and looked around her. She held her breath and listened, and soon heard someone breathing. It sounded a bit nervous, but excited at the same time. "Who's there?" She called out and started walking towards the mysterious person. 'I just hope it's an ally...'

Everyone can join~ CC: YOU'RE GOING TO JAPAN?!??? (DDD': Without me?? lol jks) Soo jealous!! >.< Lucky youuu~~ Sou, sou, watashi need some (a lot) or revision too!!

(Ah, sorry sorry..^^" Pro-chan is Anime Girl 4 Eva~ C:)

(Hmmm....I'm not sure who says that last line there, Pro-chan..but I'm gonna assume it's you xD) ---------- Kai blinked. Hard. Twice. She even blinked a third time before coming to her senses. The girl had surprised her, appearing in front of her just like that. The doors opening almost didn't seem real. She hadn't even heard what the girl had said, she was so surprised, all she saw were her lips move. Then, as reality - or what it was now - dawned on her, she widened her eyes and tumbled into the girl. "Q-QUICK! CLOSE THE DOOR!" Kai stumbled backwards. "There are...bunnies..in there.." She paused to gasp for air. "Robots.." There was no need to say much more. The robot-bunnies were in plain sight and were charging high-speed towards them. The doors closed, taking their sweet painstaking time, and a split second later loud bangs and crackles were heard from outside, clashes that could only have been metal against metal. The air tingled with electricity, and somehow even smelled like it too, if that was even possible. "Phew..." Kai laughed nervously. She took a good look at the girl beside her for the first time. She looked about the same age as her, but was a bit shorter. She had short black hair, and Kai admired her messy-but-not-really hairstyle. It was the kind of hair you didn't really need to brush but it just looks good anyway. She wore all black, with combat boots to top it off. "That was close wasn't it?" She fixed her own clothes, a navy-blue sweater and some jeans, and smiled at her newly made acquaintance. "Thanks," She said. "I would have been toast back there." She glanced at the door, which still seemed perfectly fine despite the robots' charges. "I'm Kai, by the way," She held out her hand. "What's your na--" The sound of footsteps cut her short. Muffled at first, they became louder and clearer by the second. They also sounded freakishly familiar - the same ker-lump, ker-lump - and by the sound of it, there were a lot of them. Kai turned around, saw the long corridor that looked the same, and looked back at the girl beside her. "Uhmm...." She took a breath and shrugged. "Run?"

Nice!! <3 I really like the Vermouth too~ C:

(Ohh, first post! Alrighy then, here goes~ xP) ~~~~~~~~~~ Kai's eyes suddenly snapped open. She was lying on a cold hard bed, staring at a bland ceiling. 'What is this...?' She half muttered, half thought, frowning. She got up, and as she did so, felt like something was missing. She glanced down at her hand by instinct. 'Oh...' She realized. Her watch was gone. So were her wallet and her phone, as she felt her pockets. 'Huh...' Kai almost laughed. For some reason, she didn't really feel scared like she probably should've in this situation, but instead a sense of curiosity overwhelmed her. Where was she? What was she doing here? Who brought her here? And....for what? She glanced around the room, searching for hints that would lead her to answers. But the room was a disappointment. It was very simple, even a bit big for its decor consisting of only a bed and a table in the corner. Something that looked like a computer rested on the table, but it seemed too complicated for her to figure out. Kai wasn't as interested in the computer anyway. Instead, she cautiously walked towards the door. Or at least, what seemed like the door. It was a big rectangular panel, made of what seemed like metal. It had a few buttons on the side, and a fancy-looking frame around it. But what she noticed before all of that was that the door was glowing red. As she investigated her surroundings once more, she realized something: It was eerily quiet. There was no humming of furnaces or air conditioners, no drip-drop sounds of water, no murmurs through the walls. There was only silence. And even when she neared the door, when its light suddenly flashed and faded into a blue, it gracefully slid open as though it was waiting for her all along, still keeping the fragile silence. Kai raised her eyebrows. 'Here goes nothing...' She took a deep breath and stepped outside. ~~~~~ "AHHHHHHH!" Kai screamed for the first time in years. She turned around as fast as she could and ran like there was no tomorrow, so fast she almost tripped and fell. As she regained her balance, she glanced back every few seconds and saw that the robot-bunnies were gaining on her. "What....Is...This!?!?" Kai definitely had not been expecting this. Robot-bunnies? Who even came up with the idea anyway? She got to the end of the hallway and arrived at a fork. Frantically, she turned left, all the while keeping a close watch on the bunnies behind her. 'What do I do now?' She asked desperately to herself. 'Or rather, what can I do now!?" She kept running, but she knew she couldn't keep it up for long. There was nothing on her, and she didn't know a single thing about this place. The robot-bunnies would get here in a few seconds, even less, and if they caught her she was dead meat. Once again Kai glanced at the other doors along the hallway, ones exactly like the one she got out of. 'I really wonder if there are people there..' She tried to open one, but there being nothing on the outside - not even a handle or some buttons - she couldn't. The bunnies were a dozen meters away now. She couldn't run anymore, she was too tired and even if she tried, they would get her in a few seconds. The door was her only hope. 'Come on...!' She banged on the cold metal as hard as she could. Somebody..."Help!" She cried, still banging repeatedly on the door. "Is anyone there?? Help!!!" The bunnies were almost upon her now. I wonder how it feels to be killed by bunny rabbits...Kai thought as she shut her eyes tightly, fearing for the worst. ~~~~~~~~~ (C: Hope it was okay~)

Huh...I wonder who the pregnant woman at the end is...(Have we seen her before?)
