~*St Matthew's Hospital, Athos Bay.*~
Johnny was livid. There is a level beyond livid where Johnny was, is, ready to end who dared to attempt to kill Kyouki in broad daylight was right. Ky can very well handle herself. This was Aisha, this was his girl who he's known for as long as he could remember. He was beside himself when they stood, seeing the small woman swimming in the hospital bed. With a knot on her head near her temple, cuts on her face, bruising from the seatbelt, and she just smiling at them to reassure them she is - banged up - fine.
Neck collar to hold her head in place, yeah she was fine, few drops of painkillers, sure she felt fine. Ky had crawled in the bed with the delicate doll, holding her hand, as she drifted off to sleep.
"I should have gone with her."
"Why didn't you?" The tone in Gat's voice was accusing.
"Ish said she wanted her space." Ky saw Johnny turn to leave. He wanted blood, so did she. "Don't go. Stay with her. I need to find the guys who brought her in." Ish had been sleeping for a while, Ky got up, gently sliding off the bed. Her aura was colder than outside. There were two things she needed to do;
1) Speak with EMTs that brought Ish in.
2) Call Jane Valderamma.
Ky felt the collective gasp from the city inhaled like the birth of a new black hole when the word got out. She needed that shit nipped in the bud. Mind moving a million miles a minute, she was going over the situation. It was Maero, knew it with everything in her it was Maero. That monkey fucker was going to pay.
She could hear the people outside chanting "Aisha" when she touched the first floor. They swarmed the hospital, helicopters overhead hovering at windows. Ky had crossed the floor from the elevator to the main front desk when the EMTs who blabbed about Aisha being alive brought before her.
Ky glared at them a moment before finding polite words to speak. "You two, I should thank. But you have now caused a grandiose effect that I had not intended."
The way the two partners looked at each other, not knowing who was before them, snorted. They got paid. Paid to expose any information about the missing star that once burned in the minds and ears of Stilwater's youth.
One jerk from !rto Network. If it surprised Kyouki, she didn't outwardly show it. They had everything on Aisha. Ky thought the douchebag reporters fell off the face of the earth. Especially after trying to expose how Aisha was still very much alive during her supposed car bombing episode that got her out of the limelight, the first time. Had them on a gag order and never thought about them since. So now that the Evening news came on, pictures of the accident, thankfully blurry pictures of Ish circulated.
Those fucking twatweasels! Everything they reported was lies, slander, and on the rarest of occasions, half truths. This is one truth she didn't need to broadcast.
These fools are either too young to the city to not know who Ky is. That was perfect. When one of her crew came to bring the Emergency servicers called her Boss, once more they stood, this time confused.
"Show your respect, kid."
"Sean, chill. They don't need to know who I am."
With a nod, Sean quieted. As if the devil himself had summoned it, the heat emanated from the man and surrounded them all, protecting against the frigid temper of the honey-eyed woman. Gat came looking for Ky in that second. Ky looked less imposing when the tall man came walking up behind her. The crew there greeted him respectfully.
"This them?" Gat said in his murderous approach, pointing at the woman and man. With a nod from Ky was all the information needed. Gat punched the man in the mouth, sending him off his feet, sliding on the cold tile and his partner rushing to his side.
