Elite #3

'Perhaps there is something fun to do after all.' Yuu thought to herself with a grin on her face.

"Kamio," Sakiro said to him. "You did not tell me your partner was Yuu Sakimoto." Kamio looked at Sakiro with a shocked expression, surprised he knew who she was.

"It has been a while, hasn't it, Uncle." Kamio looked at Yuu with an even more shocked expression,

"Uncle!?" Kamio yelled at them both.

Sakiro faced Yuu. "I'm not her uncle, I've been friends with her sister for a long time. I knew Yuu when she was a baby, she's called me 'Uncle' for as long as I've known her." Sakiro explained to Kamio.

Kamio was about to say something but was interrupted by a loud ringing sound from an intercom system.

"Aw, what the hell?!" Yuu yelled over the ringing.

After a moment the ringing stopped and a voice started to speak. "Attention all passengers, as of right now everyone must report to the main deck for an announcement from the general of the eastern tower." The voice said.

Yuu recognized the voice as the girl she bumped into in the hallway.

As people filed onto the main deck, Irima was just sitting in a chair off the stage and just watched people fill in looking for someone that might be a criminal. Irima noticed the girl that had bumped into her with two guys behind her, one that was very tall with very messy, short, brown hair and a boy that looked a couple of inches shorter than herself, with less messy, short, brown hair. 'That boy fits Philia's description perfectly.'

After a few more moments it was decided that all passengers were at the main deck and Irima walked up onto the stage that people filed in front of. "Ahem!" Irima said loud enough to stop all of the murmurings that was going on in the crowd. "I bet you all are wondering why you were all called to the deck. Well, the reason behind that is, now I'm not going to lie to you all, there are criminal stowaways on the ship currently." Gasps were heard in the crowd.

"I would like to ask the criminals to show themselves or are you all cowards?" Irima taunted.

A scowl appeared on Yuu's face when Irima said the word 'cowards'. Yuu ran and jumped up onto the stage and pointed a finger at Irima.

"I am no coward!" Yuu yelled at her.

"You're that girl that bumped into me earlier," Irima said.

Yuu ran and threw a punch at Irima, but Irima took a step to the left and dodged the punch. "You'll have to be faster if you want to hit me with a weak attack like that," Irima said, only loud enough for Yuu to hear.

"You bitch." Yuu said, barely audible.

Yuu stood up and ran at Irima again. This time Irima raised her knee and hit Yuu in the gut. Yuu fell to the ground and coughed up blood. Kamio and Sakiro watched in shock at what had happened to Yuu.

Irima walked over next to Yuu. "I'm not going to kill her, so don't worry." She said, loud enough to ensure that Yuu's friends had heard it.

Irima was about to pick up Yuu's body when the ferry started to shake. "What the hell!" Irima yelled.

A bulky man in a solid white button-up dress shirt and black pants jumped out of the water and up onto the stage. "Sorry about interrupting your business, Irima." The man said to Irima.

"Aka! Why are you here?!" Irima yelled at the man.

"Well, your brother sent me," Aka explained to her.

"What does he want?" Irima asked Aka with a scowl.

"He wants to know why you never visit," Aka said with a smug attitude.

Irima glared at Aka. The crowd watched wondering what the man that jumped onto the ship wanted.

"This girl is a criminal, yes?" Aka asked Irima as he pointed at Yuu.

"Yes, but I will be the one to turn her in!" Irima yelled at Aka in anger.

"Hmph, I see. You want it that way." Aka said.

"Fine. I'll leave." Aka said as he walked to the side of the ferry and jumped over. The crowd was silent this entire time.

"Everyone go back to your rooms, now!" Irima demanded to the crowd as she picked Yuu up and walked away carrying her.

"We need to get Yuu back." Kamio said to Sakiro.

Irima walked into an infirmary and laid Yuu down on a bed and began to treat any wounds obtained in their fight. 'So this is Yuu Sakimoto.' Irima thought to herself.

Yuu woke up and looked around to find she was in an unfamiliar place. "Wha-, where the hell am I?" Yuu shouted.

Irima stood up from a chair she was sitting in across the room. "Hi, you passed out from the knee to your gut," Irima explained to her.

"You, you're an elite. Why did you treat my wounds?!" Yuu yelled at her.

"I did it, because I have something I need to know."
