Chapter Fourteen

The Next Day- Monday Morning

Karasu woke up refreashed considering she slept in her own bed instead of waking up at give in the morning. It was around eleven when she arrived home after being in the Blue Clans' HQ for hours.

'I better go see the boys today. I'm sure their going to ask a bunch of questions.' She thought with a sigh as she turned the water on, twenty minutes later she stepped out from the shower wrapping her towel around her body before walking out into her room.

"Done. I hope the lion is doing okay." She mumbled to herself as she brushed her hair. Karasu was wearing black short shorts, a white V-neck short sleeved shirt, black and white high top shoes.

Karasu sat at the table eating her breakfast as she watched the news only to find out that many areas where burned or melted- Mikoto.

"I didn't think he would be this angry." She shivered just thinking about what the amber eyed man will do to her once she goes to the bar. She finished the last of her meal before grabbing her keys and her bag.

"Better take a jacket." She grabbed a red jacket as walking out her door, locking it behind her.

*~*

"What the hell was that on the news this morning, Suoh!" Karasu had just walked into the bar only to find Izumo, Tatara and Anna at the bar eating.

"Your here early, Kara." Tatara said. Anna jumped down from her seat running at the brunette hugging her legs. Karasu smiled letting out a laugh hugging the white haired girl.

"I'm happy to see you too, Anna. Is Mikoto still asleep?" She asked looking at Anna who nodded. Izumo and Tatara shared a look which Karasu took notice.

"What's wrong with you two? You would think a bomb is about to go off."

"That sounds about right." Izumo mumbled as Tatara nodded.

"What'd you say?"

"N-nothing... Nothing at all..." Karasu gave them a confused look but shook it off.

"I'm going to wake him up but first I need your help with this, Izumo."

"My help?"

"Yeah, I got these files on a yakuza boss. I got every detailed information on his group but almost nothing on him. That's where you come in."

"You want me to fill in the blankes, huh?"

"Please, help me with this. Pretty please." She said as she clapped her hands together giving the blonde haired man the puppy dog eyes making him sigh with a nod.

"Yes! Thank you so much, Izumo. Here are the files that I have on him and his group." Karasu took out a stack full of files from her bag placing them on the bar.

"Where did you get all of this, Karasu?"

"That's what I wanted to tell you and the rest of HOMRA about. I got these from Munakata, I also have been at Scepter 4 Headquarters to learn more about these guys."

'That's why she was there yesterday.'

"Why you?"

"Ah, when I was around sixteen I took down a group of yakuza. Since then he would let me know what I can do next."

"You work for the Blues?" Karasu just laughed at that.

"No, I only do these kind of assignments since their considered a suicide mission."

"Idiot! Why would you take on a suicide mission in the first place?!" Izumo punched Karasu on her head making Tatara flinch.

"I do it to help the people they're terrorizing- plus, they pay me a good amount of money to do this kind of stuff."

"Okay, I'll see what I can do. When do you need this?"

"Hopefully today. The faster I know more about him the faster I can give him to Munakata."

"I'll see what I can do, Kara."

"Anything will help, thank you. I better go wake Mikoto up." Karasu said walking up the staires.

"Karasu hold-" Tatara was cut off by Izumo who had placed a hand on his shoulder.

"Let it go, Totsuka. It was going to happen sooner of later.."

"What if Karasu has feelings for the King?"

"There's nothing we can do about it."

*~*

"Mikoto? It's time to wake up." Karasu knocked on the door.

"Mikoto, get up already." She continued to knock before banging on the door.

"Suoh! Get you lazy butt out of bed right now!" Karasu stopped banging her fist on the door when she heard Mikoto groan.

"I swear you better be dressed because I'm coming in-" Karasu breath was caught in her throat at what she saw. Mikoto was sitting up in bed leaning against his pillows holding his head.

"Who's the girl?" A woman with black hair sat up leaning against Mikoto's shoulder holding the covers up, hiding her chest as she starred at the brunette. Karasu frowned crossing her arms.

"Don't worry about who I am."

"Go down stairs, Kara." Mikoto said as he looked at the girl.

"Don't have to tell me twice." As she was closing the door Mikoto could've sworn he saw pain in her eyes before the door shut. Karasu walked down the steps entering the bar area heading to the back to the kitchen. Izumo and Tatara stood at the door watching as their friend wash her face with soap.

'Why? Why did it hurt when I saw them like that?' Karasu washed the soap off her face before looking out the window to see a black bird flying by the window.

"Karasu, you okay?"

"Why wouldn't I be?" She asked turning to face the two men.

"You were washing you face... We got worried. I mean after what you saw-"

"You knew?!" They winced.

"You idiots! You just ruined half my innocents! I blame you two!" She yelled at them.
