ThREe stabs won't kill a guy

"Remember you only have two bullets," a man spoke into the ear piece. "Since you're planning to use the first bullet as a distraction, if you miss the second, we're gonna be in a hell of a lot of trouble."

"Hmph," the masked man scoffed. "I never miss," and he aimed his sniper into an alleyway.

The group walked a few blocks away from where they'd met Dazai, following the brown haired girl.

Kyouka tugged at Atsushi's shirt, "if Hana-san worked at Satou enterprises, how can we be so sure to trust her?" she whispered.

"We looked into Hana-san's personal files and past records," Higuchi turned around having heard Kyouka. "Hana-san was only the janitor, so she was never involved with any of the major events."

"Yes that's right," Hana had also heard their conversation. "Not to mention the higher employees were quite rude to me."

Hana beamed, but Atsushi couldn't help but feel something was off. He looked at Chuuya in the front and a part of him made him feel as though Chuuya, too, knew that something didn't add up. But ignoring that feeling, they followed Hana through the busy streets.

The walked and walked. The sun was at its peak, showering blazing waves over the bystanders. Hana led the group into a much narrower street and stopped in front of a bookstore. 

"We're here," Hana turned around and looked at the group. "Down that alley was where I last saw that guy go in, but it's a dead end."

"So there's probably some secret doorway or something yea?" Chuuya peeped into the dark corridor by the side of the shop.

"Let's go," Hana called the rest behind her. 

The alley was dark, and had two large dumpsters on the right; which were probably not used by the looks of it. It was so quiet, only the sound of their footsteps and breathing could be heard. Everyone was on their highest alert, any odd movement and they were ready to attack. Chuuya's eyes were focused on Hana who walked right in front of him. Something about her didn't seem right. Her story was too casual for him, but Mori had assured him that they had cleared her out so there was nothing to worry about. Chuuya saw Hana slip her hand under her blouse and pull something out.

"What's tha-" a bullet missed Chuuya's head by just a centimetre. He spun around and spotted someone on the roof of the building behind them. He was just about to use his ability to pound that guy's ass, when something cold pressed into his back.

"CHUUYA-SAN!" Atsushi cried out when two other guys came down out of nowhere and knocked him and Kyouka out cold. 

Higuchi ran towards Chuuya but was stopped halfway when another landed right in front of her and kicked her gun out of her hand. Her fighting was good, but this guy was better. He caught her wrist and flipped her over, knocking her hard on the ground.

Chuuya turned behind to face Hana holding a bloody knife. "Han-" he was cut off as Hana stabbed the knife into his stomach this time. "Gah," Chuuya spat out blood and she pulled out the knife and pressed it in for a third attack.

"Ngh..." Chuuya fell down on his knees, his vision was blurring out. He looked up at Hana and lifted his right arm to use his ability, but for some reason his ability wasn't responding to him. Since he couldn't use his ability, he lunged at Hana, his right hand extended towards her neck when, 'ZIP'. A bullet swiftly passed into his right shoulder, and Chuuya fell down on his face with a thud.

"You were late," Hana said as she sat down panting. "I could've had my throat ripped out by him."

The sniper jumped off the roof and landed next to Atsushi and Kyouka who had been knocked out. He had black shoulder-length hair that was tinted green at the bottom. He wore a plain black mask over his mouth, a long grey tail coat, a white collared shirt and black jeans with black hiking boots.

"Tch," he started walking towards Hana. "He sure was able to move around a lot for someone who was stabbed thrice."

"Yes," Hana agreed. "That sorta scared me to be honest." She let out a sigh of relief before she pulled out an ear piece from under her blouse.

"Sir, we got them"

"Good," the voice of a man spoke through, "now bring my little toys over pronto!"

"Yes sir."

"Hey!" the masked guy exclaimed. "Where'd that blondie go?"

Hana turned only to find out that Higuchi had escaped. With a click of her tongue, she ignored it and ordered the other guys who knocked out Atsushi and Kyouka to put the "goods" in to the van that had just arrived. Hana and the masked man got in too, shut the door, and the van drove off with a small red light stuck to its back left tire. Higuchi emerged from behind the dumpster where she had been hiding, holding a gun. She was bruised and panting heavily. She slid the gun into her back pocket and ran out of the alley way to anyone who could help.
