Cold down to the bone [Black Cat Love story]

Shiki glared at her through the wraps on his face. "You idiot, you aren't supposed to get involved in his fights like that!"

"Tch, whatever, I will do whatever I want until Creed tells me what to do." Aqua pouted

They both then heard a gun shot and that made Aqua worried before she looked towards the way that she just came from. Aqua looked concerned until she sighed and smiled as she saw him, but frowned when she saw the tore up sleeve.

"Creed, will you be okay?" Aqua asked concerned

"Yeah, I'm fine. Did you three do well on your own?" Creed asked

"We're here aren't we?" Aqua asked

Creed placed his hand over Aqua's head. "That you are, so are you three ready to change the world?"

The three of them nod their heads and Creed smiles at them. "Only if you lead us" Shiki said as he handed Creed a small bottle.

He didn't think to ask what was in it, knowing that the trio were taoist he one shot the bottle and he smiled at them. "Now, lets go. We have much to do and very little time to do it in."

Maro and Shiki followed behind creed as Aqua walked beside him. Aqua admired the fact that even though creed didn't know her so well that he still saved her and brought her to her cousin. She was going to do whatever it took to repay Creed for his act of kindness towards her. For months afterwards the trio of Taoist were watching their leader trying to get Train to work beside creed only for each and every time to fail and for Shiki to hold back Aqua from dealing with the male herself.

Shiki saw that as time went on that Aqua began to show a slight hate for the brunette male and knew that if he wished for his cousin to live that he would have to do whatever it took to keep her out of harms way. He voiced his concern about his cousin to Creed only for Creed to wave it off as not important until he had Aqua prove that she had what it took to be part of the Apostal of the star. She was tasked to fight one of the other members who had the same affinity for fire as her but used it differently. The two of them sparred with one another only for Aqua to use her water ability and suffocate the young school girl with the water that was within her body as she had one of her whip swords around the female's neck and the other around her arm.

"I don't know whether to kill you or to have some pity for you. You fawn over that male as if he's the last man on earth its disgusting and a disgrace!" Aqua growled to Kyoko as her eyes filled with hate

Aqua had seen from the side-lines how Kyoko had taken a special liking to the brunette male that their leader was obsessed with. She had no idea just what dawned people to even care about such a guy but it was slowly pissing her off.

"What are you waiting for Aqua, finish her off or are you scared?" Shiki asked from the side lines.

The other members of the group were watching and she sure as hell wasn't going to lose herself to a whimpy school girl like Kyoko just because of some baby crush she had. She pulled tightly onto the swords and cut off the young woman's head and arm before being splattered with the teen's blood as her body lied on the floor.

Aqua then looked to her cousin with the intent of killing and anger "I will never be scared of any human that lives on this planet, as long as I live I will do what I can to provide for the great cause we are all here for."

Creed watched and was amused that the female actually killed the young girl without a thought of the damage it would cause. Then seeing her eyes change after Shiki spoke made him feel even more interested in the female as to how she worked and what other purposes she could have for him.

"Aqua come here." Creed said motioning for her to move closer to him

Aqua placed her swords away before she looked towards Creed as she heard the male spoke. Without a word she walked up to him and she looked to him with the same look. Creed could see that having her kill someone who had different views than her changed the look within her eyes. He stood up from the chair he sat in and he placed a hand softly on her face. He wished he could put back the same look in her eyes back into Train's eyes.

"If what you speak is true than I will like to ask you to be my right hand man, I can see that you will become most useful."

"If that is what you wish and command then so be it. I'll do what ever it takes Creed." Aqua said looking into his eyes not once drifting her gaze from his own.

Standing near the chair he was previously sitting on Echidna was glaring at Aqua. She disliked with a passion how the young girl struck a cord with the man she adored. After hearing the young blue haired woman speak she knew she had to do something to keep Creed from falling for the woman. Creed smiled a little at Aqua and placed a hand on her head.

"Since I know I can trust you I have a mission for you to carry out" Creed said as he saw the look in her eyes intensify

"I'll do anything for you Creed." Aqua said with a sadistic smile on her face

"There are a few people who I wish for you to hunt down and get rid of. They don't approve of our ways so they need to be disposed of. I would have one of the others do this task but I trust that you will do it without being caught and with grace."

"Just name them and they are good as dead Creed."

He gave her a slip of paper and she read them over before she nodded at Creed. "Consider it done." She said before she took her leave.

Once she was gone Shiki looked to Creed. "Do you really think that placing her on a mission is a good idea?"

"The mission she is on is impossible for her to complete without getting caught or worse. She'll most likely die on the job but this is what happens when she trusts too much." Creed said sitting down.

Shiki glared at the male even though Creed couldn't see it. He stayed silent as he prayed that his cousin would be alright. As for Aqua she heard what Creed said and knew she'd have to kill him after the mission, he wasn't worthy for his spot as leader and she knew she could kill him with the level of Tao she had.

She got ready for her mission and she sighed as she felt a gaze on her from behind. "May I help you....cousin?"

"Be careful."

"I'm not as stupid as he makes me out to be, I hope he knows he's on my shit list now, I will kill that bastard for playing me as a fool." Aqua said as she readjusted her belt and placed her swords on either side of her.

"Be careful he's still needed Aqua."

"I know, I'll get that bastard when he least expects me to." Aqua said coldly before she left quietly without another word.

She got to her first destination fairly quickly she was able to kill her first victim without a problem before quickly going to the next one. Within one night she was able to kill five of the ten people on the list mainly due to most of them being in one building. She quietly hid throughout the morning and rested. As she did Creed and the others watched the news only to hear that there was an unknown murder who killed five people whom where named.

Creed was highly surprised she was able to kill so many in a night. He was slowly regretting in his mind of under estimating the female taoist. He personally dislike the female and hoped that within the mission he gave her that she died so he didn't have to see her face anymore.
