Chapter 23 : Eyes of the Enemy
Aymichi
That guard was a dumbass. I laughed to myself as I moved down
the street at a brisk pace. A spiked drink and a handful of mixed
illegal drugs. That's all it had taken to get the keys. And it
was hilarious that he didn't remember a thing, even when Ishida
had gotten all roughed up. The police ain't what it used to be.
Oh well, worked well on my part. I needed to get out of Odaiba
though. They had hooked me up with Takaishi's death, took them
long enough anyway. I pulled my jacket closer around me, blocking
my face from view, and called for a Taxi.
"Out of the city." I told him simply. The cabbie didn't
say anything, just sort of grunted and pushed the gas down. What
should I do next? Ishida was rid of for the moment, its not worth
my time to go after him. The fool's probably gonna end up
commiting suicide anyway. That left 6 others. The Kamiyas, Izumi,
Kido, Takenouchi, and Tachikawa. Well, all of them live in the
Odaiba,..maybe I shouldn't leave just yet. But if I stay it'll be
much riskier. The police are on my trail, I've just broken out so
they'll be on the look out. But,...an quick move...
I suppose I could take one of them out now then leave...oh, why
couldn't Ishida have killed Tachikawa? Would have made my job
easier. Damned Digidestined. The filthy bastards thought they
were so great, saving the world from Myotismon. And while doing
so, destroying my life. Bastards. While they fought Myotismon,
they destroyed countless buildings. Some of those buildings had
people in them. That was 5 years ago. I had been 12. I watched
them all burn. And swore my revenge.
I laughed. Revenge fucked me up didn't it? Now I'm just another
crazy killer with no anything in life. I had no idea what I was
going to do if I ever did kill off all the Digidestined. If I
ever did. I don't think I will. I doubt myself a lot sometimes.
But I had nothing better to do. I had thrown my life away for
this revenge. Might as well go through with it. Its more of a
game now. Can I succeed in killing these people? I've come to
enjoy some of it. Heh, see? I'm perfectly insane. I laughed
again, the cabbie turned slightly to look at me.
I had enjoyed seeing Takaishi's helplessness at the very end. Of
course, he had never begged for mercy, fought all the way
through. But it was still funny. I hadn't meant to remove his
arm, I had been aiming towards his chest, but he moved. Stupid.
He caused himself more pain. Oh well. 'Least he's dead. It had
taken me the most of the 5 years to track the 8 of them down. I
didn't even know who they were and what they did when the
apartment went down. It had taken me a long time to find out.
Fuck it, I get distracted too easily. But on thought. Should I
kill someone else off now, or later? It'll take weeks, maybe
months for the police to cool down. I get bored pretty easily. Oh
hell with it, kill one now. Take the chance. "Where are we
now?" I demanded. The cabbie shrugged slightly, "West
side of town, we'll be out of Odaiba in 20 minutes." he
replied. Who was the nearest Digidestined? I thought. Tachikawa.
I laughed to myself. Poor bitch, she's gonna see her life flash
before her eyes twice this month! Ah, and it's Halloween too!
This is great. "I changed my mind, corner of Thirteen and
Durham." I told the cabbie, who grumbled something about
tips, and changed direction.

I shoved a twenty into the cabbie's hand. No point in not paying,
it'll just rouse more suspicion around me. It was getting dark.
Trick-or-treaters were filling up the street. Perfect. So very
perfect. No one will notice me. Hopefully Tachikawa's parents
will be out. I reached into my pocket and felt for my knife. I
ran my finger across the blade, cool steel. I smirked.
Tachikawa's apartment was nice, much nicer than the others that
I've visited. I recall waiting outside of Takaishi's apartment,
waiting for him to come out. I shrugged, if she was this much
wealthier, then her death might cause more reaction. Oh, you
think too much Aymichi, just do it.
I climbed the stairs into the apartment. A ghost and a witch
passed me, bags full of candy. I scanned the numbers on the
doors. 233,... 235,... 237,... 239. Bingo. I glanced around.
There was no one in the hallway. Good. I couldn't believe how
wonderfully things were going. I'd be out of here in 10 minutes.
I rang the doorbell to the apartment, still smirking. A few
moments later a woman answered the door. Damn. Tachikawa's
mother. Oh well..."Hello...do you--" I held my hands
together and bashed her across the head. She dropped like a sack
of bricks.
I entered the locked the door behind me. All three locks. Is the
father home? I crept into the kitchen, empty,...into a study.
Aha. Mr.Tachikawa. He turned at my footsteps. "Wha...who are
you..what do--" He was out. So pathetic. His unconscious
body slumped at his desk. Now, where's Mimi Tachikawa...? Where
is she? I entered a bedroom and was shround in pink. I pulled out
my knife...but it was empty. She wasn't here.
I felt a little fusterated, where the hell is the bitch? I
entered the kitchen once again. Then I spotted the note magnetted
to the refridgearator.
Mom, Dad, I'll be at Koushirou's. Can you pass out candy
tonight? Thanks, be back by eleven. Bye! ~Mimi
I glanced at the clock. 9:21 pm. Great. I came here for nothing.
But I had already gone too far to back down. The doorbell rang.
Ug, I need to get out of here and get to Izumi's, kill the both
of them, and get my sorry ass out of here. The doorbell rang
again. "Trick or treat!!!" a chorus of voices yelled.
Fuckit. I opened a window. I was three stories up. Oh well, at
least I had practiced. I slipped out of the window, onto an
emergancy fire exit, and climbed down. Stalked unconspiciously
out of the area, then broke into a run towards the Izumi
residence. Revenge would be mine. I was going to get two for the
price of one...Heheheheh...
