Beast

Chapter 7

Afterwards the two left to go back home and sleep. Sakura barely slept that night the gun shot rang through her ears and haunted her sleep. That night she also heard Ash leave the apartment and go off somewhere. Sakura expected that she went off to break the news to Max's mom. When she came back Ash peeled off her clothes and went to sleep. The next day Ash mad breakfast and everything seemed perfectly normal. That was until noon when she left the house and didn't come back until late evening and set the list on the table. The list had around five other names crossed off. The next name on the list was one of the post leaders. Sakura was early about killing a post leader but didn't mention it not wanting to put more stress on Ash who was completing all of these kills herself. So she would let Ash do her own thing. Everything had been going smoothly and every few days a name would be crossed off, the post leader's name still untouched.

One morning Sakura was awoken by arguing and  consoling. She left the room to see Ash and two other women, one with red hair and sharp red eyes who continued to yell at Ash, while a woman with violet hair and green eyes tried to stop the arguing and go back to whatever they were doing before, which most likely had to do with the papers on the table.

"I Already Told You, That Was What I Saw and I Am Not Mistaken!!"

Ash yelled at the red head with passion while the red head just got angrier and proceeded to yell back.

"Are You Sure, Because I Most Certainly Don't Believe That A Post Leader Would F*ck Up Like That!"

Ah, so that was what they were talking about. It was understandable because the likely hood of a post leader making a mistake was rare. But if you looked and searched hard enough you could most likely find some form of fault.

"Ash did you really watch the the post leader leave his key on his desk every day at twelve am to one when he would come back from break and take it?"

The violet head tried to reconcile with the two. Ash nodded.

"Yes, he did."

Ash shot a glare to the red head.

"When I was posing as an officer I watched him set down his key on the desk and leave to eat dumplings with his work friend, and come back an hour later, pick it up and unlock the door so an officer could come through to start his shift."

Ash crossed her arms, and looked at the ceiling acting proud of herself and her criminal actions. The violet haired woman rubbed her chin pondering the information she had just received. Then she looked at the red head, giving her an apologetic look.

"Case, I think Ash is telling the truth, Post leader John has never been the most responsible of the four due to his history."

The red head huffed and looked at Ash who once again looked proud of herself, and looked at Ash.

"Okay Dune, so you claimed to have posed as an officer, and got close to the card?"

"Yes, but I was unable to grab it due to being seen, despite being careless the security in that room still is tight."

The red head nodded.

"So if you get the card you can hack their computer and get the dates for their weapon transport?"

Ash  nodded.

"Yes."

Casey nodded again then looked at the violet headed girl and she returned the gesture. She then pulled out a paper that seemed to be a map. The map was covered in three circles and seemed to be what looked to be the Talzem docks of the East side post. 

"Here are the five loading docks of the bay,"

She pointed to each circle.

"And these are also used to for weapon transportation lead by Taylor News."

A picture of an older man with brown hair and glasses was pulled out and set in front of the two other girls.

"If we get the date information we can destroy the cargo and in the chaos kill  both News and Post East leader Williams."

"Okay, thank you once again Violet."

Ash looked to her and the said woman nodded.

"It was my pleasure."

"So all I need is for Casey's help in ridding of a few people who definitely pose as problems."

Casey looks at Ash in understanding way then sighs.

"Of course you already told me of who and I will have them eliminated by my men tonight so you can be ready by tomorrow night."

Ash smiled.

"Thanks you two, this makes things a Whole lot easier than originally would be."

They all smile at each other, then Casey notices Sakura and smirks.

"So is this your newest prostitute?"

Ash snickered and Sakura flushed.

"Haha heck yeah a beauty ain't she?"

Ash walked over to Sakura and threw an arm over her shoulder. Violet snickered and continued cleaning up the table as the other three women chatted. After a while the two left leaving Sakura and Ash alone. 

"So are they your friends?"

Ash looked at Sakura then to the door and humphed.

"Something like that, I knew them when I was in the war, Casey was a Major and lead our troops while Violet was a doctor and would be called in for her strategies, both really smart women."

Sakura looked at Ash and smiled, she was for some reason glad, she guessed that there was a part of her that was glad Ash hadn't been alone for her whole life and actually had friends and people that she could rely on.

"Hey, what's with that smile?"

Sakura looked and Ash and her smile widened.

"I'm just glad that you are happy."

Ash blushed.
