Nori Kibe

2 days till the IPOW.

The next day everyone was at the police station. Brandon,Jun, Mr.Miyuki and Mr.Nakayama were all going over evidence that they had gathered. All of them were looking at the phone call made to Kat and the reports from Seku Himaka.

"So we know she lives here. If we pursue-"

"This will be our one and only chance. Miyuki, can you think of anything? Anything at all that may show the white rabbit's movements recently?" Mr.Nakayama asked to which Mr.Miyuki shook his head. "Not a word in the streets from our boys. They haven't heard nothing underground." Mr.Miyuki said. Jun was watching with Brandon in the back. She leaned aginst her father's desk, but Brandon was sitting on the desk with him biting his thumb.

"We're so close. Once we get this Kat chick its all over for our white rabbit friend." Jun said. Brandon's eyes were looking at everyone. His mind going back through the previous cases involving the white rabbit.

"This all doesn't make sense. Why is he letting us get so close and with no resistance either.

Kibe.

What are you planning now? It has to be a big move. Theres no other way this plays out. If he doesn't make a move soon. He'll be caught for sure. All the evidence points to him now." Brandon said. Thats when a disturbances would be heard at the front desk of the station. They all looked to see what was going on. Mr.Nakayama and Mr.Miyuki walked over to see, only to see Kibe arguing with some officers.

"I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU'RE DOING! I WANT YOU TO FIND HER DAMNIT!" Kibe shouted. "Sir our officers are doing the best they can. But we can't release anything regarding the investigation." Said the woman at the desk.

"I work here, I should be allowed in on some discretion!you can't just keep me out of the loop like this!" Kibe said with a frustrated tone and nearly pulsing temple. Some more officers came over as they tried to calm Kibe down. Mr.Nakayama and Mr.Miyuki were both dumbfounded by the display happening right now.

"....W-What is happening right now?" Mr.Miyuki asked

"I-I...I'm not sure. I need to closer to this." Mr.Nakayama said as he walked, as he did he'd slowly fix his composure, but secretly his mind was going 100 miles an hour. "What is this? Some sort of desperate attempt to get us off track during the case? Or is this you finally breaking down? What ruse is this?" Mr.Nakayama though as he walked over and Kibe looked at him.

"Nakayama, finally a guy with some real influence. Look man, its my girlfriend. I need to know of shes ok." Kibe asked with a worried tone. Brandon walked over and took notice of the situation. He saw the worry and concern painted on Kibe's face. It was impossible for him to tell if it was genuine or not. Brandon watched in total confusion as Kibe showed actual emotions. Brandon was thrown through a loop. Jun walked over too and saw the whole show.

It'd be a little later when the Kibe would be brought into questioning. Brandon, Jun and Mr.Miyuki were all standing behind the other side of the one-way mirror. While Mr.Nakayama and Philies both stood infront of the interrogation table with Kibe in front of them. Mr.Miyuki noticed first before Mr.Nakayama, but Kibe's appearance here was much more different. Infact it was a complete 180 from their first interview.

Kibe was cold, his posture almost inhumanly straight and perfect. His face was like a ice wall. When Mr.Miyuki looked at it for the first...it was an expression, a face like nothing he had seen in all his years. But now? Now when sees Kibe his mind recognizes a human being, his eyes see someone with actual emotions expressing themselves. Even Mr.Nakayama was beginning to see it. Kibe was patting his hands on his pants as he looked at Mr.Nakayama and Philies nervously. His face showing genuine worry.

Philies pulled Mr.Nakayama to the side. "So you're telling me one of your own is associated with a suspect, even possibly a criminal seeing the area. And you never knew about it?" Philies whispered to Mr.Nakayama. "Unless you're psychic agent, I never saw this. By the way, the personal lives of my team. Is not a matter for concern!" Mr.Nakayama whispered aggressively.

"It is when it could mean a break in the case. Mr.Wright expressed great interest in that he could solve this before the week's end.

If he really gave a damn about it. He'd be looking into every angle. Though I see thats not the case." Whispered Philies.

"Back off agent." Mr.Nakayama responded. Hee turned his head to Philies who eyed him for a few moments before leaving the room. Mr.Nakayama then turned around and looked at Kibe. He went to sit down and fix his tie as he did. "Sorry about everything Kibe, we just have a few bases to cover thats all." Mr.Nakayama said with Kibe nodding.

"I understand sir, I'm just...I called her at least eight times. She just didn't answer. I was worried, but now I know." Kibe said his foot tapped the ground nervously and he leaned on his hand. Mr.Miyuki noticed it all and so did Brandon.

"So, He and Himmy huh? What a mixture. I never would have guessed that." Mr.Miyuki said

"Me too." Brandon said. Jun just stared, her mind completely elsewhere. Reliving her moments and time with Kibe.

"...Yea." she said, her voice filled with disappointment as she then left. Brandon watched he leave as he kept watching Mr.Nakayama talk to...he wasn't sure who the hell it was sitting there actually.

Why is behaving this way? Is it an act? Is it a trick? As he finally given up? Brandon needed answers and he wasn't going to get them standing here watching Mr.Nakayama waste their time with pointless questions.

"This is too bizarre. One moment hes clam and punctual. The next hes-"

"Like a regular teenager." Brandon said. Thats when he had enough. Brandon immediately left the room, Mr.Miyuki looked at him. "Bran- HEY WAIT!" Mr.Miyuki shouted as he followed him.

Back in the investigation room.

"So tell me, did you-" but before Mr.Nakayama could finish Brandon barged into the room surprising Kibe and Mr.Nakayama. He put his hands on the table and leaned towards Kibe. "Look me in the eyes!" Brandon said.

"Brandon what the hell are you doing?!" Mr.Nakayama asked "I'm sorry I tried to stop him!" Mr.Miyuki said. Kibe looked at Brandon. "Brandon, is there something wrong?" Kibe asked.

"A lot of things, but I'm tackling them all one at a time. Starting with you." Brandon said. Mr.Miyuki went to speak, but Mr.Nakayama gestured for him to stop.

Kibe and Brandon looked at one another. "I'm gonna ask three questions, I want you to answer me honestly and while looking me in the eyes. Understand?" Brandon asked. Kibe looked home up and down.

"Alright, but you're acting very weird. Almost more then usual actually." Kibe said. Brandon chuckled. "First question, who was it that killed your mom?" Brandon asked. Kibe's face almost twisted, his expression pained. Brandon took note of it. Of ever expression and microexpression. Kibe took a minute to answer, his hands massaging his face. Brandon looked him up and down.

"The uh...the white rabbit. He killed her and left a egg behind." Kibe said. Brandon studied his eyes. They looked weak and helpless. "Next question, do you believe in God?" Brandon asked. Kibe looked at him. A paint of confusion over his face.

"I don't." Kibe said. Brandon leaned back a bit. Folding his arms as he tapped his finger on his mouth.

"Final question, Are you the white rabbit ?" Brandon asked which shocked everyone. "What- I-"

"WRIGHT OUTSIDE NOW!" Mr.Miyuki shouted. Mr.Nakayama grabbed Brandon's arm and dragged him out of the room. With Kibe still sitting at the table tapping on it nervously. Mr.Nakayama, Mr.Miyuki and Brandon all met in the men's bathroom. Mr.Nakayama stormed in place while Mr.Miyuki stood near the entrance. Just as someone got ready to enter Mr.Nakayama snapped! "USE THE LADIES ROOM!" He shouted to which the guy immediately zipped up his fly and walked away.

Brandon leaned aginst the sink. He rubbed his face. He then looked infront of him and saw Kibe once again at the table only this time when he saw Kibe's face it was like a glitch, a ruptured video. Nothing about it recognizable. Behind him was a large black silhouette. One with piercing green eyes and 3 pairs of arms. Brandon's eyes just stared.

He saw Kibe look at him. As he talked it all sounded like jumbled words and splotched madness. He almost sounded like he spoke in speeds unknown. Brandon just stared. His mind breaking at what he just witnessed in that room.

"Just who the fuck are you? I don't recognize you anymore. What disguise is this right now?

Your face is the fuzziest its been. I can't make out what you are right now. This is the first time I've been unable to see you clearly." Brandon thought to himself. "Brandon, Brandon!? BRANDON!" shouted Mr.Nakayama bringing Brandon back to reality. He looked at Mr.Nakayama who was staring right at him.

"YOU LISTENING TO ME WRIGHT!?" Mr.Nakayama asked. Brandon shook his head. "I uhh, you lost me at the fruit baskets of magos part." Brandon said.

"I NEVER SAID THAT!" Mr.Nakayama said. "Oh." Brandon said.

"What the hell was that in there? You trying to blow everything?! Trying to ruin what we've been working on for weeks now?" Mr.Nakayama asked. Brandon just shook his head. "Well? Say something!" Mr.Nakayama shouted.

"I had to be sure. Kibe in there...he wasn't...himself. something was off, so very very off. It was weird as hell.

Like looking at a picture with a different lens." Brandon said. Mr.Nakayama nodded. "I agree. Something in there was off. How whole character was wild. It was a complete shift from who he was previously." Mr.Nakayama said with Brandon nodding. Mr.Miyuki then looked at his phone.

"Guys, we have to get on that lead with the kidnapping and murder suspect Kat. We don't now we won't ever again." Mr.Miyuki said. Mr.Nakayama nodded as he looked at Brandon one last time before leaving the bathroom. They all were in Mr.Nakayama's office. Brandon, Kibe, Jun, Mr.Miyuki and of course Mr.Nakayama. "Alright everyone. The routes to the apartment building are in the back, front and the connected store to the right.

Our job is simple, capture or incapacitate the target. She goes under the alias Kat." Mr.Nakayama said.

"No real name yet?" Jun asked. "No, we're looking through documents and her school records to find out. For now the job is simple. We're going to rescue this "Himmy" girl. Before Kat has a chance to harm her. Or worse.

Brandon and Jun you'll be in the back, me and Melissa here will be on point. Kibe I want you to stay behind." He said which Kibe fully disagreed with. "But Sir, I feel I can help in this! Strongly!" Kibe said.

"Thr answer is no. You'll be here at the station. Now let's move everyone. We have a little over 48 hours to catch this woman and crack a long awaited case. So let's move it! Double time!" Mr.Nakayama said. Kibe slumped over. His feelings about Himmy boiling over him. "This isn't right I should be on this case! What the hell is wrong with them?!" Kibr thought.

Somewhere else, Himmy was at a table, tied up to a chair. Her had slumped over. Her eyes slowly open. She looks around and she is in this dinning room like space. Except the whole place looks heavily abandoned and ruined. There was plastic for some furniture, and head dust everywhere. Thats when Himmy looked ahead of her and saw Juo, this managed and heavily beaten man. His eyes were swollen, lip busted and his was cut into a few times. Himmy was horrified to see him like this.

"Oh god..." Himmy mumbled.
