I Now Realize

Chapter 2: What 'Really' Happened...? (Part 3 out of 3)

'Uh...Akio?' Alue tried getting his attention but Akio seemed like he didn't hear her at all. Alue noticed who he was staring at and smirked with Jake and Shade. 'And he taunts us for having feelings for a girl?' Shade snickered. Jake had to hold in his laughter. 'Right!?' The three teens stopped walking while Akio wasn't paying attention to where he was walking and bumped into an elevator as he watched the blonde girl walked with her father, going to the second floor. Alue puts her elbow on Akio's shoulder. "Well?" She raised an eyebrow and smirks. "She's beautiful. But I don't think I'll see her again..." Akio sighed and got up.
"There they are." Tony pointed at Alue and her friends. Violet nodded. "Thanks, little brother," she looked at Darius and her brother. "Darius, you go with Tony. I will be your eyes and ears." She quickly walked in a cautious distance towards Alue and her friends. ">Alue, lets split. I think I know who is following us.<" Jake signaled at Violet. ">Oh, crap, I forgot about the plan!<" Akio slapped his forehead, ">Lets go, vato!<" He yanked Shade and walked away. ">Good luck.<" Shade said. Alue nodded and jogged to the clothes section. A while later, Darius and Tony went to the same section where Alue was and pretended to 'look around'. Alue didn't want to make eye contact but it was too late. She noticed when Darius and Tony walked towards her and she quickly walked calmly to a crowd of people in the clothes section, grabbing a black winter coat, a black hat with a red stripe and dark grey boots. She out ran Darius and Tony; which gave her a chance to go in the fitting rooms and quickly change. Once she got out, she went to where the mannequins were and posed, disguising herself. Many people noticed and stared at Alue and confused her as another mannequin. Then she went nervous when a group of boys came up to her.
"Wow, I wish I could find a girl like that." The brunet pointed at Alue. His friend wrapped an arm around Alue. "Please, a girl like this will come into my life and won't resist me." The blond haired boy gloated. 'Hf, with that kind of pride, who would fall for you?' Alue thought. With half of her body behind the blond boy, she swept her foot against the boy's foot, making him trip. The other friends laughed, not noticing that Alue moved. "What was that?" The blond got up. Alue quickly raised her hands forming into a demon and jumped between the blond and his friends, startling them with a distorted voice and a creepy smile and reptile eyes. "That would be me." "Ahh!" All of them ran away, dropping their drinks and ran away. Alue quickly turned back to human and laughed like a maniac and fell on her knees, earning several stares from some people, thinking she was crazy. Darius saw Alue's face and caught up to where she was and grabbed her arm. "You're coming with us." Alue kept calm and pointed at the shelves with perfume bottles. "You see that?" Darius turned his head. "What of it?" Before he looked at Alue, she used her telekinesis power to drop the shelves on Darius and ran, thankful that no body noticed what just happened. Jake walked towards Alue and was dragged by the arm, forced to run. ">Hey, what happened?!<" Jake tilted his head. ">Explanation; later. Now, hit to turbo mode. We've been spotted!<" Alue said and ran and went to the furniture section. Violet followed Alue and Jake outside and tried to shoot them with a tranquilizer. Alue pushed Jake behind a car. Akio went behind Violet and head locked Her.
Darius, Tony and more of her teammates came and pointed tranquilizers at Alue and her friends. Shade took out his knives, ready to attack. People in all directions stared and froze. Others ran to take cover. Violet elbowed Akio at the gut and pushed him away. Alue threw a smoke bomb, picked up Akio and ran with her friends. Darius thought of what to do and ran to a crowd of people, taking a blonde girl as hostage. He was annoyed with the girl screaming for her father, but he kept running.
Alue dodged cars and stopped in the middle of the bridge. She and her friends were surrounded with Violet's team. Akio widened his eyes when he saw the same blonde girl taken hostage by Darius, who pointed a gun at the girl's head. "Come with us or she dies." Akio perked his ears and raised his hands. "We surrender." Alue and the other two boys stared at him as if he was crazy. Akio winked at them and walked to Darius, only a foot away from him. "Finally," Darius threw his gun at Violet. Akio grabbed Darius's arm and pulled it, but was punched at the nose. Darius threw the blonde girl to the ocean and kept punching Akio at his stomach. Alue kicked darius at his back, causing him to fall forward. Jake and Shade stalled Violet and her team. Akio jumped from the bridge and dived, trying to find the girl. He saw the girl sinking further, drowning. He caught her and went to the surface, swimming to the shore. He gently puts her on the ground and noticed she wasn't breathing. 'She's dead!' Akio widened but doubted at the same time. He quickly did CPR and backed up when the girl coughed water. She stared at Akio's eyes. "Who are you?" Akio stuttered. "...I'm Akio. And you are?" "My name is Kitaya. Thanks for saving me." The blonde girl smiled. Akio grinned and rubbed his neck. "No problem. Ah, where are your parents?" Kitaya widened her eyes as she saw four of Violet's teammates fall in the water. "Uh...I don't know where my dad is." She became worried. Akio puts his hands on her shoulders. "I'll help you find him. Just don't freak out and hold onto me." He carried Kitaya and leaped onto the roads, trying to find her father. "Where are you going?" Alue panted. Akio yelled. "Trying to find Kitaya's father!" Alue, Jake and Shade caught up and stopped him.

"Akio...no one is here. And it's cold outside for her," Shade waved. "Nice meeting you. I'm Shade." Jake nodded. "Names Jake." "Nice to meet you all." Kitaya smiled. Alue looked at Kitaya. "I hope you don't mind staying with us for today. I'm Alue. You're Kitaya, I assume?" She smiled in a friendly way. Kitaya nodded. "Yes. And I don't mind staying with you guys." Alue nodded. "Alright, we just found a place to stay. But it's far from here..."
