20The Lost Cat : The Decision
OH MY GOSH! I TOTALLY DID NOT UPDATE FOR 2 WEEKS! I am so SORRY! Holidays are coming soon, so I'm gonna make it up to you guys during that period. Thank you for reviewing chapter 2, minna-san! Now on with the story! Black Cat is not mine!
RECAP:
"All Sweepers were notified about the association being bought by us. They are coming to headquarters next Monday. As a present from me, you will be in charge of the Sweepers together with Sephiria. Of course you will still be number 13. I can't express how happy I am that you are back, Train." said Wilzark with a sickeningly sweet voice.
The Deadly Explanation
"The day has come, Train, for the Sweepers to come by our feet." said Sephiria. Train said, "Can I just skip this? I am no good with crowds." "Oh no, Train, the Sweepers are waiting for us outside." and sure enough, murmurs could be heard outside the doors of the Chronos headquarters. For this occasion, Sephiria wore a red satin dress, while Train decided to just go along with what he always wore. That earned him grumbles from Sephiria.
"Train Heartnet! Do you know that there will be a ball later? Yet you are wearing these? Fine, suit yourself, if you don't want to wear the tuxedo I placed in your room!" ranted Sephiria. 'You remind me about Eve and Rinslet…' Train thought. ' Stop thinking about those traitors! You will see them later, you gotta keep yourself composed.' Train berated himself.
"Lets now welcome your leaders, holding positions in Chronos, 2nd only to the elders, Chronos no. 1 and 13! No. 1, the cold yet seductive Sephiria! No. 13, the person who holds the highest efficiency for missions, Black Cat!" said the overly enthusiastic host. Sven and the others suppressed a gasp. Train was going to be the head of the Sweepers Organisation, or what they call it, the ex-Sweepers Organisation. That means that Train must have known about the purchase yet he did not tell them. Train betrayed them again!
After the introductions, both Sephiria and Train came out of the doors and gave a speech. "I hope you are ready, for this is not like the Sweepers, where you can give up easily. This is Chronos, where we expect no failures. Failures means punishment, and trust me, the punishments won't be nice. I look forward to working with you." said Sephiria, offering a sinister smile before leaving to stand beside Train. The tension in the air was so thick that it can cut with a knife. Erm… not a nice way to start the day. "Y…yeah. Great speech, no. 1. Lets put our hands together for no. 13, the one and only, BLACK CAT!" exclaimed the host. Sephiria nudged Train using her elbow. Train gave a sigh, and stepped up to the microphone.
The tension became thicker. People were afraid of Black Cat. They knew what he was famous for. " I personally, do not want to work with you people. If it was me, instead of purchasing this worthless organization, I'll just destroy this organization. I work alone. Do not get in my way." "Ooh. Someone woke up on the wrong end of the bed today." Said Sephiria, jokingly. A sweeper, enraged, attacked Train. Train immediately shot a bullet at his heart, killing the poor sweeper instantly. "Didn't I tell you to leave me alone?" said Train, before leaving. There was an awkward silence, before the host said, " Okay… That's the amazing speeches from your new bosses, Black Cat-san and Sephiria-san! Come inside and eat, after that, we shall make group arrangements for your missions. " Sephiria whispered to the host, the host said, "Sephiria-sama said that it's alright to tell you guys now about what you are going to do here. You will start from the bottom and start some training." This earned some grumbles from the Sweepers, but one glare from Sephiria shut them up. "Sephiria-sama! One bottle of milk is missing…" exclaimed one of the guards. "It's alright." Said Sephiria, while thinking, 'Train, I am sure its you.' Sven, Rinslet and Eve followed him Train while he walked slowly to the forest.
"What do you want?" asked Train. "We want answers. Why did you betray us?" said Sven angrily. Train's blood boiled. How dare they say he betrayed them. He most certainly did not. "Me, betray? I was so nice, so loyal to you guys, yet what I got in return was a stab on my back. I thought that you guys cared about me, but I should have known better. No one cares about me. They only think of using me as a tool. Only Saya cares. BUT SHE'S DEAD!" yelled Train.
"Leave. LEAVE NOW." bellowed Train, pointing Hades at Eve, with tears streaming down his cheeks. "Train, we…" Rinslet tried to say something, but was interrupted by Train. "Fine, if you guys wont leave, I will." said Train, grabbing a bottle of milk he took from the party and leapt off towards the next building… Sven, Eve and Rinslet were left speechless.
Unknown to Train, in a cold, dark room was Wilzark, monitoring his every move. " I see, despite coming to my side, your heart is not fully here yet. I must do something to make you even distrust your friends even more!" said Wilzark, sinisterly, while taking off a mask. "This sure was tiring, but it was worth it. Come to me, TRAIN!" A familiar maniac laugh was heard, a mop of silver hair could be seen. (A/N: Do you know who's that?)
(A/N: It's a bit longer this time! Whew! I'm totally worn out! Okay, seeing reviews make me happy. Review on this chapter too! This is not very well-done, but I'll make the next chapter even more enjoyable! Due to some suggestions, I am adding You-Know-Who (not Voldemort) into the story as one of the main characters! Sorry for the grammar mistakes, didn't have time to check this… Maybe I should get a beta… but then again, my fanfictions aren't that great or anything. The next chapter shall be : The Already Tainted Heart. Look forward to it! Remember to review! )
