The thing with pedophilic women on their death bed, was they usually did not give out the exact address and codeword of where said captives where being held. Luckily for me I had internal information being fed to me through the work of one Akaashi Keiji. He was quite brilliant in all honesty, even Natsu took to him. While i usually worked alone with Natsu he was the one breaking into top secret government files and distributing them to those he deemed worthy. Although if you didn't give him the statistics of the kill and captives he could turn on you quickly.
"Hello Akaashi! So I just interviewed Fiona Becker, quite easily I may add, is there a possibility you could give me the location pretty please?" I was speaking into a pay phone on the side of the street where Natsu and I had first emerged.
"What were her credentials?" He calmly stated
"Serious attachment! Like damn, also I'm almost certain that she's got 15 people to reference." Obviously you could tell we were talking in code, but Akaashi had established the code so he understood.
"Good, the location is the hotel basement on North Street according to some emails. You'll have to hurry you'll have to speak with some other clients if you linger." What he meant was if we couldn't release the captives within the hour police would be making their rounds.
"Got it!" I hung up the phone and grabbed Natsu's grimy hand.
"Come along kid, we've got some people to help." She skipped as we walked towards the destination. After only 5 minutes I could see the top of said hotel.
"Ms Yachi?"
"Hm?"
"Can I help you release them this time?" Natsu looked at me brightly, but of course I didn't know the state of said captives and didn't want Natsu to have those.... images, in her head.
"Maybe, I'll see how they look then you can come in." She visibly lifted and seemed excited at the prospect of saving them.
"Here we are! Let's go." Pulling the hood over my hair slightly more I stepped into the sparklingly clean lobby and began walking to the elevator with confidence. Humans were easy to trick, give off the right aura and anyone believes you.
"Ms?" I turned to face a bellhop who had a glaring smile on his face and an air of dignity.
"Yes?" I said sweetly.
"Oh I was just wondering if you were checked in?"
"Ah yes! I don't have a room but I babysit her," I motioned towards Natsu who was currently hiding behind my legs. "and her family lives here."
"Oh! I'm so sorry, continue on your way." I smiled again before taking Natsu's hand and entering the elevator.
"Ms Yachi you lie so easily, it's cool!"
"No Natsu it's necessary." She nodded and pushed the basement floor button. It was surprisingly well lit for a basement, then again it wasn't some horror movie.
"Where are they?"
"Most likely in a bunker, listen for banging or heavy breathing, knock on the wall three times if you find them." She nodded and took off down a corridor to the left and I began threading my why to the right.
Everything was muffled, I could hear the small sound of rats in the corners, the pipes above me where increasingly abnoxious with the incessant whoosh of water. I kept my eyes alert but of course I didn't need too no one would be down here.... Aside from the captives of one Fiona Becker.
Bang
Bang
There they are! I knocked on the wall three times loud and sharp to signal Natsu and began searching for another sign.
"Hey! Knock again so I can find you!" I shouted at the walls.
Bang
"Ah thank you." I pushed aside the carts of material to find a large metal door with padlocking.
"Can I go in first?" Natsu appeared at my side,
"Me first kid, Moki." I said into the microphone. It clicked once and Opened slowly. "Hi! I sort of killed Fiona so if you guys want to come out. Go ahead." Stiffly I entered the dark room and before me sat 14 children at every age. Natsu bounded in after me and took one look before going to comfort one who was clutching a wrist to their chest and crying softly.
"Who are you?" The one who sat in front said, they had a commanding voice and seemed to be a leader of sorts.
"Yachi Hitoka! At your service!" I bowed and watched as the kid evaluated my words.
"You killed her?"
"Mhm," I took notice of the wide eyed stares I was given before they all got up one by one, Natsu skipped back over after she was content with the one she had been talking to quietly.
"I'm Natsu!" She said proudly pointing at herself
"And you are just going to let us go? No take backs?"
"Mhm you can go, go to the police station to get checked out though and any information you can give about Fiona please tell them, Oh!" I stood taller before saying "Don't mention me though." With that I let them file past as they took blinking steps into the light of the basement. Then they ran towards the exit each smiling brightly.
"Let's go Natsu. We have other people to kill."
