High & Low ~The story of SWORD~

Act 10:Lower than High

The higher sometimes we try to reach, the lower we end up. It doesn't matter how hard we tried to keep ourselves there, sometimes it throws us back at the lower point. Though even if its the lowest, maybe it's has something to teach us.

Kasumi was also in there point of her life, that she couldn't go higher. The way she could only follow was the lowest. Few days had already passed, and she remained hiding at the Heaven Club. Though Rocky thought, it was not the place for her to be. Although, she was feminine and could easy fit in Heaven. There was something more in Kasumi. Though she also had not found it. Rocky asked her to follow him. They went to a spa spring. A friend of Rocky's owned. She would always take care of the ladies. The hairstyle, the make up, everything could be done there in the best ways.

"I can hide you in Heaven Club, but there is not the place for you to be." Rocky told her as they took a seat in the spa. "Will you follow me?" He asked her.

Kasumi gazed at him curious. She nodded agreeing with him. "Alright, I will trust you!" she replied.

"Let's start by removing those contact leans. Don't tell me you have purple eyes." Rocky mocked her.

Kasumi hesitated at first. But since she promised to follow Rocky on these she pulled them off. Rocky pointed at her at the trash can. Kasumi sighed and threw them in. She looked too different now. Her eyes were dark brown. They had a unique color. Kasumi gazed at the mirror. She didn't like her eye color.

"See you already started to look different. Kasumi if you try to pretend someone that you are not. In the end you may become that person." Rocky told her as he was looking at her hair. "Don't tell me you have curly hair?" he asked her.

She shook her head. "My natural hair are straight. Though the color is natural." she explained.

Rocky spoke with the owner what he had in mind. Short hair above the neck, Not too short with layers and right bang. The color Light Ash blond with highlights. It took few hours to get the right hairstyle. But when it was ready. Kasumi would only need to wash her hair and dry it. And it would take that shape. Though since her hair was black, Rocky told her to visit the owner every month. She would fix Kasumi color and length.

Kasumi gazed at the mirror, and looked buzzed. She looked so different. Like another person. The haircut, made her face to loose the roundness. Her face looked thinner now. She looked at Rocky "What now?" she asked him.

"We aren't done. No more make up. You don't need it. And some Skin whitening or skin lightening." he suggested.

Few more hours later the make up was gone, and Kasumi looked really pale. With no heels on, even her height was different. It was like another person. Rocky pointed her in some clothes. The clothes seemed casual. A pair of jeans and a black shirt, with some random running shoes. Though with the clothes were a chest corset and odd men underwear.

"Your chest with out the bra is almost flat. If you were the chest corset it look total flat. The underwear have extra layer to look like .. em you have males parts." Rocky explained at her. "What I am telling you is. To pose as a boy for now on. It's the best way for you to be safe. Go try those on" he said.

Kasumi took the clothing, she went in the changing room and wore them. The change was amazing. She looked like a pretty boy. Nothing on her was giving up it was Kasumi. She came out, confused. "I look like someone else!" she said still not sure why Rocky would have her change that much.

He waved at her to come closer pointer at her at a rucksack. "There are few more clothes, and ID card and a phone. Though you have to drop two more of you acts, and no one would really recognize you." he told her.
