Sweet as Sugar, Crazy as Hell

Chapter 9: Help, what's res-pon-si-belle?

Before that guy who saw me could run away, I tackled him to the ground.

He landed chest-forward while I was at his back, holding both his hands.

"Don't move. I might kill you." I said.

"How do you even kill a person with a candy cane?!" He exclaimed.

"First, you stab-"

"I don't wanna know!" He yelled.

"Sheesh, fine. You were asking so I just answered. And please shut up. People might here you." I told him.

"Let me go!" He said.

I brought out a knife from my pocket, "Still gonna yell?"

He looked at me, then the knife, then back at me. He shook his head and sighed.

I took handcuffs I brought and handcuffed him.

"Are those handcuffs?!" He demanded.

"Yes." I replied.

I took out my phone and dialed Kylie's number. She didn't pick up.

"This is K-"

I tried calling again and this time she picked up.

"Woman, why in Earth did you not pick up the first time?!" I exclaimed.

"Uhm. This is Kera. Is that you Dayana? How's the mission?" Kera, a member of our gang, asked.

I giggled, "Someone saw me. Recruit or kill?"

"DON'T KILL, DAYANA!" She yelled from the other side.

I had to put the phone away from my ear from how loud she yelled.

"Sheesh woman! What if he's related to one of the other gangs?!" I yelled.

I heard the guy who saw me take a hard gulp.

"Call Leon." Kera replied and hung up.

"Kay? Kay!" I yelled. "Ugh, Leon it is then."

"L-Lion?" The guy stammered.

I giggled, "It's Leon, honey."

"Who's that?" He asked.

"Curiosity killed the cat." I told him.

"But satisfaction saved it." He retorted.

I snorted but didn't say anything else. I just dialed Leon's number.

After two rings, he finally picked up.

"What did you do?" He asked me.

"Hello to you too." I said with a giggle.

"What did you do?" He repeated himself, ignoring my greeting.

I pouted, "You can't trust me?"

"Shouldn't you be in a mission? And I can sense you're pouting." He told me.

I huffed, "There's guy who saw me killing Freddy-"

"Is Frederick dead?" He asked me, cutting me off.

"Well, yeah. But how 'bout this guy? He saw me. What if-"

"What's his name?" He asked, cutting me off again,

"Now you're just being rude by not letting me finish. And how the hecking heck would I know his name?" I demanded, getting impatient.

"Just ask." Leon told me.

"Hey, what's your name?" I asked this guy next to me.

"Why do you ask? Wait, aren't you Autumn?" He asked.
