Akihiko's Side
Ah London England, the capital city of the United Kingdom. Big Ben, Tower of London, Saint Paul’s Cathedral, Millennium Bridge, Thames River… and many more sites to see… But the cream of the crop… the elephant in the room… will I be seeing family?
“There are things that you cannot see, and there are things that you cannot UNSEE…” I tried to hold my laughter as we waited for our chauffeur to Anti-devil Agency English Branch.
As expected a while back in the jet, the girls saw Jose and Tyrell fapping their hearts out causing major disruption during the flight making Captain Evans mad… just a bit. He was also trying to hold his laughter during the events that followed. I wouldn’t say that the women were traumatized… I was thinking that it was the men that had the traumatic experience. They can’t even look at the women in the eye!
“Shut up, Japanese…” Anna gritted her teeth as she glared at Jose and Tyrell.
“Yeah Kuroshiro, this is your fault…” Irina was keeping calm… trying to keep calm… actually.
“You asked where I went,” I looked around for new women to target while teasing my teammates, “but I only went to the toilet and I saw them… I just showed you the way… If it’s anyone else’s fault it is Anna’s. She insisted in going… … …”
“HEY!!!” Anna yelled, but remembered what she did… “I was c…c…curious you know?!”
“Have you heard of the quote… curiosity kills? Hey, our ride’s here~ You okay there Russian?”
“I hate you, Japanese…” Geoffrey grinned at me. “I hate you Mexican and I hate you Black American…”
“None of you gets any N-word pass from me, you hear me?” Tyrell carried his luggage to the compartment.
“None of you amigos gets to drink mi margarita,” Jose got inside the vehicle. “This is the most embarrassing moment of my life!”
“Enough,” Captain Evans shook his head. “Remember that we are on a case. So get your senses up to eleven and be high on alert… The incubus is out here somewhere…”
Geoffrey glanced at me, “You heard that, Japanese? Our target is here SOMEWHERE…”
“I heard you the first time Nympho,” I grinned at him and got inside the vehicle.
“We live in two different worlds…”
“What are you saying?”
“I can no longer support this relationship anymore…”
“Why are you like that all of a sudden?”
“I love you but I think that we are not meant for each other…”
“Is it because I am mortal? I will endure… just don’t leave… I need you…”
“You need this… the face of the person you desire… and not the person that I really am… I learned how to love… but I am a demon… I age million times slower than you…”
“I did not fall in love with that face… I fell in love with the demon… the incubus…”
“I’m sorry…”
“Don’t go!”
“I’m sorry…”
“DON’T GO!!!”
“Kuroshiro!” Captain Evans shook me back to reality. “Are you sick? You can sit this meeting out.”
“I just… felt… dizzy… y…you… know maybe… fatigue…” I immediately grabbed a chair and sat down. “
“You okay there Japanese?” Anna waved at me, “You’re not one to wobble in front of nuns, right?”
“Nun?” I looked at the people in front, “Oh you’re right… nuns…”
“They said that they are here to assist us in this case.” Geoffrey felt agitated, “To be honest, we can’t let our guards down this time…”
“Russian is right,” Irina sat down beside me. “We need to show them that we are the top demon hunting agency in the world.”
She didn’t get the point though. What Geoffrey meant was for the two of us with demonic secrets to keep our guards up. My memories were also haunting me back… I had been living for a long time that I had forgotten where I had previously been to… Could this place hold some of the ancient memories that I have had…?
“Alright team,” Captain Evans stood up and approached us. “Why don’t we go introduce ourselves in the holy presence of the Roman Catholic, eh?”
I’m fully vaccinated against holiness so there is no need for me to fear… shaking hands with the holy, getting splashed by holy water, hearing prayers, hearing exorcisms… what else???
“I smell a demon around…” as soon as I shook hands with the nun named Dimaria, she dropped those lines.
I shuddered, “I don’t feel anything…”
“That is because you have not been blessed by the Holy Catholic Church,” she replied. “You need to be careful because demons are attracted to the unholy.”
“Then that means it would be easier for us to hunt for them since they are easily attracted to us,” Geoffrey replied. “I don’t like these nuns, Captain… they’re full of self-righteousness and egotism.”
“We were also forced to team up with you,” Dimaria cleansed her hands with ‘blessed’ hand sanitizer as soon as she let go of mine. “Let’s put it like this if you plebeians get in our way… of holiness… we will not show any mercy.”
“That’s good because we aren’t really compliant with people calling us demons the moment they touch us,” Jose spat on the floor.
“Nah… Y’ all make me sick nigga,” Tyrell imitated Jose and spat on the floor.
I looked outside and saw the janitor of the room slammed his face on the wall.
“I’ll keep my eye on you,” Dimaria then whispered as she glared at me on her way out.
Captain Evans spat on the ground as soon as they left, “This is bad karma for me, so I suggest that you spit on the floor as well to drive out the bad karma!”
“I knew that you’re on our side Cap,” Anna grinned. “I’ll gladly spit on the ground for you!”
“I…I…I’ll spit on the ground too!” Irina spat on the floor.
I looked at the janitor one last time as he was shaking his head. I just make out the words with my mouth, I’m sorry and then we all spat on the floor of the office. The janitor died inside afterwards…
“Hi, I’m Dennis Fincher from Rogue Modelling Company,” there I went again… doing the same thing maybe to attract the incubus’ attention so that he’d learn that I am around. This time, this beautiful short-haired executive class woman was my target alone in an above average bar drinking vodka. I had a tactic though, aside from projecting as the face of the one she desired… “You are the perfect picture for our modelling company. Have I gotten your attention?”
The moment our eyes met, I knew she would comply…
“You did get my attention… … …Dennis Fincher,” she raised her eyebrow. “Are you sure that you are working for Rogue Modelling Company?”
This woman had the A+ Difficulty, but a ten out of ten or above will always be a target of mine. I’m sorry to those I scored lower than ten, I’m an incubus and my job is to handle the best… You know, celestial beings… and gods had divine powers to place and erase their own existence when necessary. When I invented Dennis Fincher, an immediate history and biography of his life got written. People whom I never met before suddenly became familiar with me. That’s the same with uh… who was I before again? OH… James Cameron. Everything about him disappeared now so… that’s that. People who knew him before suddenly forgot that he ever existed. That’s how angels did it to perform miracles and so that when they erase their existence, they pass their fame to another person and thus somebody who was relatively unknown became famous all of a sudden. Enough about explaining…
“I am… here’s my ID. You can check it out,” I winked at her, “I’m 110% sure that even the CEO would vouch for me.”
“Wow~ too much confidence,” she took a small sip from her vodka, “It might kill you…”
Well I knew that you are into people with great confidence but not to the point of being boastful. Like I said, I can read your thoughts and use your desires against you.
“I’m not being overly confident, I’m just certain of my own standing…” I offered her my hand, “I did not get your name yet… miss…”
“Amanda,” she hesitantly offered her hand, “…Persephone.”
Time to let her know that I was indeed certain… certainly confident. I gently pressed my lips on her hand and slowly looked into her eyes.
“It’s a pleasure to meet you…” I let go of her hand, “So I lied…”
“What do you mean?” she was already starting to gain my interest. “What did you lie about?”
“I lied about inviting you to our modelling company…” I sat down beside her, “I was certain about it… about inviting you into my life…”
“Your life,” she chuckled, “I haven’t heard any man wooing me give me that kind of talk.”
“It seems like you’ve got plenty of suitors,” I gave her a sweet smile. “But as I said, I’m sure that you’re going to say yes to me…”
She turned away for a bit giggling, “You know you’re trying to get under my skin already with that confidence. You don’t know me, don’t you?”
“I don’t,” I grinned at her, “but would you let me know because I’m already into you the moment I laid my eyes on you… here in this bar…”
“It’s true that I am yet to be featured in Rogue related magazines, but I am actually one of the shareholders of a certain company… I’ve been on TV many times… here in this country and it’s a surprise how a paparazzi like you was able to enter here in my friend’s bar…”
“Well that hurts,” I looked around. “I’m talking about being in the US my whole life. This is the first time that I am assigned to go global in search for the next model… so I don’t really know you… … … Ms. Amanda. It’s in my ID… and my company…”
She bit her lower lip. She knew she made a mistake, but she is too afraid to admit it.
“Miss, I’m not here to invite you to Rogue,” I drew closer while she was thinking what she’d say next. “I am here to invite you…” I held her hand shocking her for a bit, “into my life… I’m no paparazzi… but I will follow you like a dog would follow her beloved master… if only you would… allow me… to be one tiny bit step closer… I love you.”
Her heartbeat was all over the place. She wasn’t letting go of my hold. She can’t say no to the face of the person she truly desired who was certain, confident, and gentle. I’ll treat her like Queen Elizabeth, but in bed, I’ll treat her like Mia Khalifa…
My face is getting closer to hers… one more step and our lips will touch… but she… she really is A+ difficulty.
She moved away for a bit, but she smiled at me, “Your face is getting too close…”
“Would you invite me if I didn’t get this close?”
“What would you do if I say yes to your invitation?”
“I thought you’d never ask~”
I grabbed her by the waist, locked my hand to the back of her head, and then we kissed. It wasn’t over though… she allowed me to kiss her, but it doesn’t mean that she’d allow me to penetrate her down below…
As soon as we finished kissing…
“Well, that was… something…” she was a bit shy as she looked into my eyes.
“Yeah… it was… I saw sparks flying when we kissed…”
I was looking through her though… I noticed that the woman a few empty seats behind her… that woman was one of the nuns from the Vatican… Did she discover me already? I don’t know… but she wasn’t looking at me… or was she? Were there others? All the while I kept my cool without flinching and continued my act.
“…I did too…” she shyly whispered.
“I would like to take you somewhere where we could kiss like this… be intimate,” I gently brushed her hair, “get to know each other…”
She bit her lower lip. This time it was for a different reason, “I…”
I couldn’t listen to her anymore as I noticed that the nuns are closing in on me… Is this where I should run? Or would there be any demonic or divine intervention to help me live another day…
She also noticed that a group of women was approaching us and she got scared too…
“What’s happening?” she asked me.
“I don’t know…” I answered…
If I use my powers against them, I can actually escape, but that would mean that I would’ve been exposed.
Five more seconds before they take me…]
Four… I need to run…
Three… but I couldn’t…
Two… Oh my goodness… I just saw Dimaria on my periphery…
One… It’s all over for me!!! …
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM*
*RUMBLE* *RUMBLE* *RUMBLE*
A powerful explosion trembled the streets outside shocking everybody in the bar as glasses fell down and clouds of dust fell from the ceiling. I too, being the gentleman that I was, grabbed Amanda under a table for cover. Suddenly, a fire broke out…
“VAMPIRES ARE ATTACKING!!!”
When a person outside yelled in panic, the nuns immediately rushed outside and left me with her.
I was somehow saved by that explosion…
But what the hell is happening?! I assisted Amanda back up, and took her out to the parking lot to find her car.
“You need to leave,” I told her after getting her inside the car.
She was still scared, “What about you, where are you going?”
“Don’t worry about me,” I told her confidently being the man she desired me to be. “I need to lead others to safety.”
“Will I see you again?” she gripped my arm.
“I bet you will,” as soon as I said that, I kissed her in the lips and gave her the Dennis Fincher persona’s card. “Now go!”
When she left, I blended in with the crowd running away in panic. I subtly transformed back into Kuroshiro Akihiko to join the fray and find out the reason for the commotion. Vampires are our allies… that was in the US… I don’t know here in the UK though… but it seemed like I needed to go. I’ll go back with Amanda later and it will be easier now that I got her trust. These nuns though… they act like the nuns from the game Hitman!
“Incubus Hunt Division, this is Kuroshiro Akihiko,” I contacted my squad like the agent that I am. “I’ve already sent you my current location.”
“We hear you loud and clear, agent!” Captain Evans immediately responded. “We are on our way, ETA five minutes!”
“Copy that Japanese! We got your coordinates,” Anna responded next. “Irina and I are on the way!”
“Geoffrey, here, I am on my way. ETA three minutes! I can already see the smoke from afar and the three of us are running through the heavy traffic that it caused!”
“I’m like Speedy Gonzales, small… but fast~” Jose outran Tyrell and Geoffrey as he sneaked through the massive evacuation that happened.
All of a sudden, Dimaria appeared in front of me pointing a .357 Magnum…
“What did I do?!”
“Like I said, TROUBLE!”
“I’m here to help,” I raised my hands up. “I’m an agent, you know!”
“I can see that,” she pointed the pistol up above and made a shot. “What kind of gun do you use?”
“9mm like that commonly used by policemen,” I looked up and saw ashes from falling down a few feet behind me.
“Here take these bullets for that pistol,” she handed me two rounds. “Those are bullets blessed by the pope himself! Do not waste a bullet!”
I sighed feeling blessed to still be alive, “Got it!”
