"Naomi!~ Are we there yet?" Naomi squeezed the steering wheel. "Yui... Please... we have been driving for a few minutes..." Noel was playing with a doll, and Yui was staring out the window. Naomi yawned, "Sh!t..." ShaKi was putting on makeup. "We'll be there soon enough... Ooo, this lip gloss will be perfect!" Naomi face palmed, "Really... At a time like this..." she said. "Yes! You have to look your best while kicking a$$..." Naomi rubbed her forehead. (No you just want every person with a stick between their legs...) Naomi sighed. Trees went by as they drove. Eventually the drive took longer than expected. Naomi rolled down the window and leaned out. "Sh!t... Traffic is backed up from here. These vehicles are nice and all but it was better just walking to place to place... What a pain..." ShaKi chuckled, "looks like the future came quick. Better get used to it." Naomi yawned, "Yeah but that doesn't mean I have to like it..." Then Naomi turned on the radio.

A piano melody was playing. Noel tapped Naomi on the shoulder, "Naomi?" Naomi looked at her with a small smile. And Noel handed her a coloring page she finished. "This looks awesome. I-is it for me..?" Noel nodded and hugged Naomi, "Thank you, Noel..." ShaKi smiled, "You two are like mother and daughter. It wouldn't surprise me if she started calling you mother." Naomi sighed, "I'm not the mother type though... I would never be a good mother." ShaKi laughed a bit, "You don't think so but from what I've seen you are..." Noel sat back in her seat. Naomi looked at the coloring page. It was a flower, with black and red petals. The seeds were blue and the stem was a light green. Naomi folded it up and placed it in her skirt pocket. Then the traffic began to move. "Finally.." Then they drove a couple more miles to the city. It was bustling , people walking about talking and enjoying the city life. They parked a bit far away so they didn't have to look for a parking spot. They got out and Naomi locked up the vehicle.

They walked towards the city entrance and entered after showing a form of ID. As of late they been getting a proper system to check people for Legal purposes. Naomi thought it was a nice change of pace and gave less of a chance of criminals, but sometimes they will squeeze through the cracks. They walked through a district, it was filled with people. Noel held Naomi's hand while they walked. (Cynthia... Why and how are you using my face... I know glamour, but this is something different and I don't like it...) Noel noticed Naomi's scorn expression. Noel looked down a bit then said, "Don't worry, you three will find that girl. You beat her up Naomi!" Naomi looked at Noel and chuckled, "You need better role model besides me. But thank you for the hope." Noel's smile made Naomi happy. (I gotta make sure everyone is safe even Noel... If it kills me I'll protect them...) She thought. Naomi was grabbed by the shoulder by a drunk man, "Hey~ Miss~ Let's ha-ve fun~ ...Hic..." Naomi grabbed his hand and said, "No si-" then he grabbed her chest. Naomi gave the guy a sharp glare. "Let go... NOW!" Naomi said as she twisted his arm and round house kicked him in the head. He spun and landed face first onto the ground. "Damn perverts... Your lucky I didn't dislocate your arm..." The guy groaned in pain and they continued walking. Noel looked at Naomi with a sparkle in her eye, "Naomi! You are awesome!" Naomi blushed a bit.

ShaKi laughed, "What a way to ruin his day!" Yui agreed. Naomi blushed more, "Please stop.." "Naomi! Can I have a piggy back ride?" Naomi stopped and nodded, she crouched and Noel got onto her shoulders. Naomi lifted to a stand and they continued walking the street. Then they were stopped by officers. "Miss, I need a word with you." he pointed at Naomi. "S-sure" She was nervous. He lifted a piece of paper beside her face. "Miss we're going to have to take you in... Naomi, is it?" Naomi was startle by this, "What? I j-just got here.." Noel was shocked and held on tight to Naomi, "No! She did nothing wrong! I promise!" Naomi shoo her head, "Noel, I'll figure it out please don't make it worse..." Noel began to cry when Naomi placed her down. "You may follow us to the station." They then followed the officers to the station. When they reached the station they entered and found a seat inside. Noel sat on Naomi's lap with a mean look. "No ones taking Naomi" She said in a cute angry voice. "Noel.. Don't be up-" Noel looked at Naomi with a sad look and hugged her. "I don't want to lose you...Naomi..." Naomi rubbed her head and kissed her forehead, "Don't worry little one. I'll get it situated..." One of the officers came out talking loudly to the other, "Listen, sir! I don't believe she's the one! C'mon, sir!" The other cop that was getting an earful began to walk away. "LISTEN DAMN IT! I know she-" he was cut off by a glare. Naomi watched this and over heard it all, (Was that about...me?) The one who yelled came towards Naomi. "Listen, I know it wasn't you... Why would someone who saved the world three years ago do any bad deeds?..." Naomi was a bit taken back but nodded. "The name is, Officer Zero. I'll get you out of here quick, somethings going on...." He scratched his head and walked away. Naomi watched him walk away. (He has a point the vibe here is off..) Then an interrogator walked and stood in front of Naomi. A slender woman, looking confused and a bit aggravated. "Okay, Miss Naomi... Come with me." Noel shook her head, "NO! Naomi didn't do anything wrong!" Noel got up and Naomi grabbed her arm. "Don't make it worse..." Noel looked at her with tears. ShaKi grabbed Noel and gently pulled her over where she was sitting. Naomi stood up and walked with the woman.
