Five

Chris

Chris woke up and immediately thought of Ciana and their date. He got up brushed his teeth, combed his hair, got in his suit (the one that slimmed him) tied his bow, grabbed his wallet and off he went. Chris sat down inside his car and started it. He drove to the supermarket and picked up the freshest, prettiest, brightest flowers he could find. He drove all the way to the other side of the city just to pick up Ciana. He finally got there and pulled up in her driveway. She said that she would be waiting outside for him, but she wasn't. "She probably just forgot," Chris told himself. Chris walked up to her front door and just as he was about to knock, looked at his watch. It was 7:00 am and their date wasn't until 6:00 pm. He had started getting ready for their date the second he woke up. How could he have been so stupid!! He cursed to himself then banged his head and hands loudly against Ciana's door. "God!" Chris screamed to himself unaware that he had woken Ciana, "How could I have been so dumb!!!!" "Umm, Chris?!" Ciana asked standing in the doorway in her robe with a confused look on her face, "What are you doing here?" "I.......um..... It's a long story." "*sigh* I've got time" she answered.

After Chris explained the whole story to Ciana (who laughed about it) he apologized and came all the back across the city to his home which took a little over half an hour. There he changed into simple pants and an undershirt and went to the training area for some target practice. He practiced with his second best gun. He decided he would bring his best on his date. Just in case Rahn got any bright ideas to attack him with his Ciana. If that were to happen, he would protect Ciana with his life. He was pretty sure he loved her, or at least liked her a lot. Chris went back to his house after about an hour of practice and sat down on his couch and turned on his TV. He flipped to the news. They were talking about how a local gas station had been set on fire and blown up. There had been two deaths and three people injured. "We have three possible suspects," the lady on the news was saying, "the first one is a young African-American girl with straight, dark hair and looks to be about in her tween years." They showed a really blurry picture of a girl running away. "That couldn't be.........no. It's not Arianna. Is it?" Chris thought to himself." The second suspect is another young girl who also appears to be in her tween years. She is white and has straight black hair and a deep wound running down her right leg." K, Chris thought to himself. "The third suspect is a white male appeared to be about in his late thirties, with straight, black short hair. He also had a snake tattoo running up his left arm." They showed a slightly less blurry picture than the last one of the man. That was definitely Rahn. "if you have any information on any of these suspects please call this number." They flashed a number across the screen "Okay, now back to you, Rick" "Thank you Ellen, now we go to a live car chase on highway 71." They started showing the car chase, "Ooo," Chris said, kicking back. He didn't know what was going on with Rahn but Chris did enjoy himself a good car chase.

It was finally time for Chris and Ciana's date. Chris got ready for the second time and went back across the city to pick up Ciana again. This time she was all dressed up in a nice slimming pink dress and her hair and makeup done all fancy. She was still laughing about that morning and so was Chris. He still couldn't believe he had done that. Chris drove Ciana to a really nice , REALLY expensive Italian place where they ate some REALLY expensive food. He was glad that he worked for the secret government or else he wouldn't have that kind of money. Ciana asked if maybe later she could see him with his weapons and powers and see the Five in training. She was really fascinated by all that Five stuff. "Sure! Why the heck not?! I might even let you see a battle." He has said flexing his muscles. They had talked and been enjoying themselves for a while before their food finally came. "Great," Chris said as he got his food, "I'm starving. "Me too!" Ciana said as she started gobbling her food down. Chris chuckled to himself, he loved a woman with an appetite. They were about half way through their meal when it happened. Rahn was about to attack. Chris cursed to himself, this was just what he was afraid of. His was going perfectly so far then this had to happen. "Great" he muttered to himself. "What?" "Oh, nothing," Chris tried to play it cool like he didn't know what was about to happen. He was reading Rahn's mind and he could hear him counting down from twenty. He was on eight. Chris assumed he was talking to K and she was getting ready to attack. Chris braced himself and shielded his eyes so she couldn't lock him into her spell thing. Chris started hurrying Ciana out of the restaurant before it blew up in a fiery explosion. Luckily it was at the back of the restaurant and didn't affect Ciana or Chris that much. Chris turned around to see who was behind the explosion and found the person he least expected to be there. It was Arianna.
