THE BLACKLIGHT

It been ages since skilful Mutants find all the underground tunnels, passageway that shattered over the city, helping them to travel freely between Zones many Mutants felons oftentimes travel those for avoiding Blackwatch's Customs and checkpoints. However, Akagi made high standards for himself, because he's handsome, intelligent, perceptive, sophisticated, educated, cunning and adaptable person, he has no problem blended in the noble society for hiding his vicious and dangerous persona.

At the tip from the knock, Akagi overheard some conversation from the other side that he shouldn't.

"You d.i.c.k! Your debt is up, how long do you think I should be waiting?" Hasumi Ayana threats with fearsome tone,

'I pay, I swear, just put the hammer down!" An afraid man begged, presumably Ayana's customer who didn't pay her service in time.

Akagi intended to find some information from to Ayana's Library but seem things heat up in there.

Nevertheless, Akagi went in after knocking however what he saw really surprised him.

"Shinsuke-kun! My god" Ayana said, when she glances at him "Look at you, by an instinct, I don't recognise you".

"Please let me go, I told I'll pay" the man begged again, been slammed his neck on the bar table by Ayana with a hammer on her other hand!

Apparently, Ayana taking back the money, for what he overdue,

"Um... You're busy Ayana-San hence I really need your help in something". Akagi asked, standing in front of the door.

"Yes, come in" Ayana invited him, and throw that man off the table, "You! I'll let you go for now, be sure to pay me got it or I bashed your head with that hammer!" she warns that man with a stern on her face.

"Yes, I will, I promise!" the man got out of her bar as soon as possible.

Akagi's eyes widened as he sees Ayana's other side of her personality, Akagi taken Ayana as a beautiful woman with scarlet hair, However he don't know her fully.

"What attract you to come to visit me? Ayana asked, put down the hammer on the table,

Akagi whimper as he walks forward, "Yeah I needed your assistance about...",

"Tell the truth. You look amazing" at close glance Ayana wildly claims, attentively gaze him "What happened, you look extremely attractive, those fallen slick hair really makes you even hotter, last time I saw you, you'd definitely not looking like that", after a truthful compliment she again went back flirting with him as she suddenly blushed up over her cheek , "Aah, if I look closely, I can't even see your handsome face, who knows maybe I could do something very nasty or naughty".

"I don't know what to say but not I'm here for a friendly visit" Akagi tells Ayana why he here "I need some blueprints and structure plans with extreme details, or modern map books some sort",

"Honey, you still remember I—"

*thud*

Before Ayana could even ask, Akagi places a thick bundle of money at the bar table,

Akagi explains, looking at the money which he holding "That's all fees that I overdue for many months and... also the Blueprints and plans about which I need permanently",

"Oh, Shinsuke, how gentleman of you, that kind of talk I accept when I do business with the customers but now," Ayana excitedly lean forward, placing her both elbow on the bar table, "I'm now with a 'Old friend' may I not" she said, passionately eyeing Akagi with her fruitful eyes while her hands lifted as the fingers playing around Akagi's black silky hair.

"Great... the Hot Librarian of Yellow zone, trying to seduce me" Akagi thought, looking at her full-l.e.w.d gesture, however Akagi find it awkward rather than feel flattered,

"Hmm... maybe she had a crush on me" Akagi thought while closed eyes "Although she aware she's older than me,"

Before he said, Ayana pull out the TYZ's Building Architecture on the table.

"Wh-what you don't even go downstairs?!" Akagi said, while been suddenly surprised.

Ayana chuckles and replies Akagi's baffled questions, "What you need is all in there, maps, tunnels, underground passageway along with every modern building structure and costing, everything".

Akagi, wade-eye glares at Ayana as she explains the content, along with easy friendly manner of flirting and teasing Hasumi Ayana also rough and tough, as tough as she fully capable running an illegal and dangerous business with threats of violence, betrayal and treason that happens everyday and she tend to prefer more intellectual pursuits when she round Akagi.

"I thought you might know" Akagi suddenly questions while sitting down, turning some pages for Verification, "Do you know anything about Project Valentino?".

Ayana hummed then replies, "I don't know how or what it is but I had one Blackwatch individual who buy out all Project Valentino related information, including Spectre's abductions reports from me".

"You sold all proofs to Blackwatch and they didn't bother to kill you after they knew!?" Akagi wildly inquired,

"Oh, Shinsuke-kun, you're so naive and cute" Ayana laughs, arranges some books by her hands, "Don't you forget, I'm an equal opportunist, I sold anyone who pays me more, beside racism distinctions are for rookies, that Blackwatch soldier was a veteran and care or less about races",

Ayana continues, "But what if I can tell you about a well-known Collaborator who might know more about Project Valentino".

She told the same name that Eiji once told back in the Detention centre, since Akagi didn't fully trust but Ayana told same name now he's confirm.

Between their conversation, a passport size photo slips through the books and flows near Akagi's feat,

"Oh no!" Ayana said, walks in for recovery it, but before that, Akagi picked the photo and had a glance at Ayana's teenage years.

Akagi rather very surprised to see Ayana's earlier appearance as she used to have a cute ban hairstyle with one hair-stick dig in the middle, covered with overly casual clothes, and a rectangle glasses with black strap, appeared much nerdy, shy, and s.e.xy.

A very attractive but prim and prudish woman, who would be gorgeous if she would just take off the glasses, let down her hair, and unbutton her top button, which she is right now.

She quickly taken photo and says with embarrassing tone, "Ahh! You saw it was me, when I was a small time high school nerd".

Ayana deeply exhales for exhaustion she intend to keep her past in secret, when Akagi found out, she had to tell, while sitting down, light a cigarette and explains farther about the her past life "I never knew real parents, probably they disowned me, grew up with my grandparents, that photo taken for student council for my last senior year, I was nobody in my high school days, spend my whole school life knowing, particularly no one, just passed my time reading, researching in depth in my school library, huh… a bookworm like me I shouldn't expected less.

"You seem totally different now," Akagi said, sitting beside Ayana as she smoked up the cigarette,

"What happened?" he questioned,

"Well, I decided to have a complete make over since I started my a.d.u.l.t life" she continues with an unemotional tone "I started my illegal business of information distribution from the start, from the cruel, cynical society which we living in there is no right way for you to walk".

"Within couple of years, I am really good at what I do, and then life goes on for me",

Akagi's eyes widened as she knows about Ayana's past, she maybe a cheerful girl, who enjoys teasing who prefer, also things from the background and doing things at her own pace, but in inside she's sad, lonely when it gets.

"When I first saw her, at that moment she kind of fond of me" Akagi assumed.

Once Ayana finished smoking, she in sleepy manner falls into Akagi's shoulder, and whispers, "Even though my life completely changed since I'm not the same, but still I really feel lonely sometimes, grad you're stop by, hence my other customers are all f.u.c.k.i.n.g cold turkeys"

For changing the subjects, Akagi randomly says, "By the way, Miss Ayana I never knew what's your Noryoku type is?"

"Oh! You want to know?" Ayana intrigued, straighten head "My Noryoku is not common type, try not to get scared" she warned and covers her mouth with hand, revealing a vicious face with hundreds draconic spiky teethes overwhelm with her sweet mouth, the nails significantly longer and shaped, her well-endowed appearance into a heinous Mutant.

She has a lot of feline features, having yellow eyes with vertically slit pupils and pronounced, dragon-like teeth, a special kind of Noryoku that use to tear enemies into shreds.

"I know, I'm a monster, a freak" she claims, as she deactivates the Noryoku, returned to her beautiful womanly look, "My Library is the place I could be myself",

"You're wrong, you know," Akagi suddenly declared, stand up, withdrawn from the seat, "You're no monster, I know real monsters are, those ones you do not see but strikes when you're unaware of".

Ayana widely flinched by his answers, also stands up, glaring Akagi as he on his way exiting her bar.

Akagi stepped forward into exit door with a book in his hand, "Um, Tell the truth, Miss Ayana" Akagi politely confesses, "You are an amazing woman and I'm flattered with your intelligence and interests but I'm quite busy guy or not the best person that you looking for",

"Now, now don't need to hesitating" Ayana replied in guilty manner, "I should know that already" she huffed "Huh, how fool was I, sorry".

"Although, maybe wouldn't me, but someone with my age, since you're very beautiful, they'll definitely Head Over Heels for you, I guarantee it" Akagi truly tell to Ayana with a wink,

Ayana immediately blushes and bites her s.e.xy glossy pink lips, "You, flirty man how cold-hearted of you" She cutely mutters, as she blushed away from eye-contact.

Akagi smiles, "Thanks for spearing the surprise 'Hospitality' which I witnessed few moments ago".

"Hehe, hehe, haha!!! Aah Shinsuke-kun", whatever Akagi said, Ayana couldn't hold as she brings her laughter,

"What did I say something wrong!" he confirms in fear

"No, nothing" she confirmed while loudly giggling, "You didn't flinch seeing my Noryoku but I wasn't expected you to get scared like that that's my daily job, for threating people who don't behave"

Akagi turned into the door and says "Alright I get going, then again thank you".

With him exited, Akagi have the tools to proceed his plan into the next phase, he's intention is now clear hence the small amount of information that he has could crippled Blackwatch, MRC, including everything and everyone to the ground.
