Author's Note: I suddenly got the urge to write a oc fanfiction. Of course, it'll always feature me and riko :D. It's standard :x. 

Aiko nodded her head, and gave Riko a thumb-up. "Off you go, don't make your boyfriend wait for you," Riko blushed slightly, before she ran off. Aiko, upon seeing the shadow disappearing off, fall to the ground, her hands tightly clutching her head. "Damn you, you stupid tumor!"

"Haya--!" Riko have saw the back of her boyfriend, but she managed to stop her voice, all because of one reason, she saw a figure beside her boyfriend. She slowly inched herself closer, and made sure that she wasn't seen. Both of them were talking in very soft voice.

"Hayato, how are you going to tell your girlfriend, about... us?" the girl whispered. "I don't know, but since she've wanted to meet me today, I thought I should tell her, that I don't love her, but you," Hayato have said, and grabbed the girl's wrist. Riko covered her mouth, and tears have started to form in her eyes.

"Hayato..." the girl whispered. "You should go now, my girlfriend is coming any moment, I'll call you when I'm done," Hayato said, as he hurriedly pushed the girl away by her back. Riko have gritted her teeth, to think that she got deceived by her boyfriend for few years. 'I've wasted my two years of youth on him,' she thought. Clenching her fist, she slowly dried her tears with the handkerchief she had, and walked over to where Hayato was. She wrapped her hands around Hayato's neck, and blowed into his ears.

"Hayato! Have you waited long?"

Hayato jerked up, before he took Riko's hand, and grabbed onto them. "No darling, of course not," he smiled.

What a fake smile, she thought. She looked behind, and saw that exact same girl hiding behind the bushes, sobbing softly. Her heart have smirked slightly, before she stared at Hayato. Unable to content the anger, she raised up her fist, and send a punch across Hayato's face.

"Riko! What in---!" Hayato shouted, and before anything happened, the girl have rushed out from her hiding place. "Hayato! Are you alright?"

"Umino!" Hayato replied.

"Oh, so your name is Umino," Riko mumbled, as she raised up her head, and stared at Hayato and the girl. A crowd by then have gathered, and was observing the commotion going in at the centre of the ring of the mall. Hayato have stood up, and spitted out the blood in his mouth. "Why did you punch me!?" he shouted. Riko was taken aback, Hayato have never shouted at her before, but because of this Umino girl, he had actually raised his voice at her. "Hayato, you've never raised your voice at me before," Riko mumbled, as she bit her lower lip.

Hayato sneered. Umino widened her eyes, and looked at Hayato. "Riko, I've always been playing with you. Don't you know that? All these while, I've loved Umino. Umino is the one for me only. You're just a toy that I've played all these years. Your emotions are my research, for me to examine women's feeling. Have you forgotten what's my career?"

"Researcher. You... YOU bastard!" Riko screamed, the tears streaming down her eyes. The passer-bys only continued looking, but yet, one of the spectator was already breathing hard and fast, trying to contain his emotions.

"Riko, this world is on how you survive. In the game of love, you'll only lose," Hayato mentioned, as he placed his hand around Umino's shoulders. "In this round, I've win," after saying, he had let out a soft evil laughter.

Another sound of punching was heard, and Hayato was landed right across the end of the mall. Umino have ran up to Hayato's side, and a figure had appeared in front of Riko, his eyes sending off the killer aura. "No, you've not win. For this round, Riko won. Because she have me," the guy said, as he faced himself up, and shuffled his fringe.

The guy was well-builded, and wore a shirt, with a vest outside. "Who the hell are you!?" Hayato shouted, as he used the back of his hand to wipe away the blood from his mouth. "I'm Takaki Yuya, I'm Riko's future boyfriend. Thanks to you dumping her away, I can officially woo her now,"

Riko's eyes widened, when Takaki have came up to her, and placed his hands around her waist. "Thanks alot, low-life,"

The crowd started to cheer and clapped, and Hayato have used his fist to punch the ground. With the help of Umino, they both exited the place with the embarrassment.

Soon, the crowd have dispersed, and Takaki have also started to walk off, when Riko stopped him. "You're Takaki-san?" Takaki turned around, and realized that the said girl was tearing very badly. Takaki sighed. Since he had saved her, why not take care of her until she's alright? He went up to her, and pushed her head to his chest. "I'm lending you my chest, so cry all you want,"

Riko raised up her hand, and grabbed tightly onto Takaki's shirt. "Takaki-san, thank.... you," she whispered. Takaki raised up his hand, and patted her head. Delightfully, he smirked.


'My next target, is found,'

"Yuri," the lady sounded. Chinen have flared up immediately, and stared daggers at the lady beside him. "Don't call me by that name!" he shouted. The usual gentle, and sweet Chinen was gone, and what replaced him was nothing but a rash, fierce guy. "You... what's wrong?" the lady stood up. Chinen shrugged her off, and chased her out of the hotel room. "Yuri!" the lady keep shouting, despite Chinen's warning not to call him by that name. "Scram!" he shouted, and pushed the lady right out of the room, although she was half naked.

"What's wrong?" an older woman passed by the room, and heard all the commotion. "Erika-san!" the lady have rushed up to the older woman, and cried in her embrace. "Don't tell me you've boldly called him Yuri?" Erika asked, even before that lady have said anything. With her smudged eyes, she nodded her head. Erika shake her head, and pushed the lady away. "Then, I can't help you. You deserved this," Erika commented, before she continued, "You need not come back tomorrow, our pub doesn't need you anymore,"

The lady have run away, trying her best to wear up her dress, while she cried even louder. Erika shake her head, as she slowly knocked on the door. "Chinen, you inside?"

"Come in,"

Erika opened the door up, and saw Chinen was just getting dressed up in his top and jeans. "Going out?" Erika asked, as she fished out her cigarette box. Chinen nodded his head, before he turned, and stared at Erika. "Don't smoke, if my current target smells the cigarette smell on me, and suspects me, i'll make sure you pay,"

His voice was able to attract every woman, but at the same time, made people feared him too. Chinen adjusted his belt, before he walked out of the room, before Erika have let out a sigh of relief.

"Remind me, why did I even let him and his brother stayed in my pub?" Erika shake her head.

"Renka!" the sweet voice sounded in the background, and Chinen have looked towards the direction. "Natsuki-chan!" Chinen replied, and ran over to where the girl was. "Have you waited long?" Chinen asked, as he grabbed onto the girl's hand. "No! Not at all," Natsuki replied.

Watau Natsuki. She's fifteen this year, and her parents divorced when she was a mere two year old girl. Caring, and kind girl. Her results were perfect, and everything. Chinen smiled, when he caught this girl roaming on the streets one night, and decided that she will be his next target. What's his motive? He wants this girl to suffer more than he had ever felt, because in Chinen's perspective, all girls are his enemies, and he'll eliminate them one by one by making them fall apart inside out.

Chinen decided to approach this girl with the identity of Girishima Renka, an orphan. He's age of seventeen, and currently in high school.

"Where are we going now?" Natsuki asked, as she clinge her hands around Chinen's arms. Chinen placed one of his hand onto her hand, and smiled. "Anywhere you want, Natsuki-chan,"

Natsuki smiled, as she dragged Chinen towards the bus. Chinen smiled as his plan was working perfectly fine. "I've always wanted to go to the new mall just right beside my uncle's house!" Natsuki said, as he excitedly looked out of the bus window. "Natsuki-chan, you're really so sweet," Chinen attacked Natsuki with his honey-words. Natsuki blushed, before she quietly sit down on the seat of the bus.

"Here it is!" Natsuki called out, as they got out of the bus. As they slowly walked up to the entrance, Chinen have felt a vibration in his pocket. "Natsuki-chan, you go in first? I'll follow you afterwards,"

The girl nodded her head, and Chinen have hurriedly picked up the call behind the mall. "Yuyan, what's up? I'm with my target now,"

"I've found mine too, I just need to tell you about it. She's super cute, and hot!" he shouted through the speakers of the phone. "Yuyan! Look, if I lost my target, I'll get in---" before Chinen could continued, a hand had grabbed onto his ankle, making him jerked up. He looked down, and realized it was a girl. "Anyway, I call you back soon,"

"Excuse me, it's my ankle?" Chinen sounded. The figure didn't moved, and he tried to took it out. It was easier. Using the strength he had, he pushed the girl, and he managed to see the girl's face. Gorgeous.
"Miss, are you alright?"

"You're an officer right?" the girl spoke, as she slowly opened her eyes. "Eh? You mean, police?" Chinen replied. His phone started to vibrate, and he groaned in exasperation, before he picked it up. "Renka-kun? Where are you?" Natsuki was on the other line.

Two chances are right in front of him. Just then, he looked down to the girl again. "This is more worth to invest in," Chinen said, as he hanged up his phone, and pulled the girl up, and make her to be in a sitting position. "Please bring me to the hospital. My head... it's hurting terribly,"

Chinen, without thinking any further, he piggy-backed the girl towards the main road, and find a taxi.

"Thank you doctor," the girl have thank the doctor when she regained conscious. The door was knocked, and she just weakly allowed the person to enter. "Are you better?" the boy asked. The girl looked up, and saw that boy. It was the same one that send her to the hospital. "I'm much better, thank you so much, officer-san,"

"I'm not a police," the boy answered. "Anyway, I'm called Chinen Yuri,"  Chinen have widened his eyes, and looked at the girl in shocked.

When the predator decided on a prey, he'll never tell the prey his real name. That explained all of his previous targets unable to track him down- because he never ever existed at all. The girl smiled brightly, and replied him in the sweetest voice he could ever hear before. "I'm Sugihara Aiko, nice to meet you, Chii!"

"Chii?" Chinen remarked when he heard his nickname. "Ops, it just slipped out. You don't mind, right?" Aiko said, as she sticked out her tongue. Chinen shake his head, and smiled. "Ai-chan, it's alright,"

Aiko smiled at her nickname. Soon, both of them broke into soft laughter.

That was the start of everything.

"So, you're fine now?" Takaki asked, as he patted Riko's head, and Riko have immediately backed off, and gave off a sheepish laugh. "Yea, thanks alot, Takaki-san,"

"No need a '-san' behind, you make me feel so old. Call me Takaki will do," Takaki mentioned, as he brought his hand up to the back of his head, and scratched it. "What's your name?" Takaki asked, as he bended down slightly.

Riko gazed up, and smiled once again. "I'm Takasugi Riko, nice to meet you," she said, as she bended her head down slightly. Takaki smiled, and he nodded his head. "Can I call you Ri-chan? I think it's a cute name,"

Riko blushed slightly, before she nodded her head. "Um, you can call me any nickname that you like, anyway you prefer," he said, as a mean to support his previous sentence. "How about Taka-kun?" Riko blurted out, and she immediately covered her mouth. "Sorry, take it that I've never mentioned it before then,"  Takaki laughed out loud, before he patted her head. "I love that name, Taka-kun it shall be,"

Riko blushed once again.

"So, name your target name please," Erika said, as she placed the wine down onto the coffee table, her legs crossed each other. "Wait, for a minute, please make sure that the girls in your pub doesn't stick so much to us, for goodness gracious, it's troublesome," Takaki sounded, as he pointed to Erika. Erika knew clearly what Takaki was saying about. "I've fired that girl already, Chinen, Takaki,"

"Great, she's been an eyesore recently," Chinen mumbled, as he took up his whiskey, and sipped on it. Erika sighed, and banged her hands on the table. "I can't stop both of you hunting the girls out there, but please leave my girls alone!"

Takaki stood up, and placed his hands around Erika's shoulders. "Chill down, Eri-chan. It's just the beginning. Your girls are awesome, that's why we're willing to touch them," Takaki then clutched tightly on her shoulder, "Say us, why not say yourself too, Eri-chan,"

"Fine fine," Erika gave up, as she placed her hands in a surrender stance, and went over to the bar to mixed some strong liquor for herself. "Now, say your targets' name,"

"I'll start first. Remember the hot and smexy girl I'm saying just now? Here's the photo," Takaki have flashed out his phone, and showed a picture of Riko on the bench. "It's her. Hot right? I somehow caught sight of her when I was at the mall. She caught my attention, and I found out she got ditched by her boyfriend. So, the best method was, the hero saving the girl in distress," Takaki stopped, and put his phone back into his pocket, before he continued. "Her name is Takasugi Riko. She have a older step-sister, same father, different mother. They have been staying together since they're young, and she works as a chief editor of a particular magazine,"

"Hmmm, nice career, and nice target found," Erika commented, as she placed her cup of drink onto the bar.
"Chinen?"

"Takasugi Riko, she's the younger sister of my target. My target's name is Sugihara Aiko, I caught sight of her at the back of the mall this afternoon, when I was actually meeting Natsuki instead. I saw that she was kind of... gorgeous, so I dumped Natsuki aside," Chinen coldly said, as he looked at Takaki. "Bro, we're attacking the same family,"

"Gosh, can't one of you back off?" Erika said, as she picked up her drink, and sipped it all the way down. "No," they said in unison. Both of them smirked, and punched their fist together, "They're gonna suffer, and they're unlucky to meet us both, the predators" their voices somehow have managed to merge together, and it sounded like one person's voice.

Erika felt a shiver in her spine.

"Yuyan, are you serious that we're going on like this? The girls only have each other, don't you think, they somehow... reflects us?" Chinen muttered. Somehow, the Chinen back in the room, is always different when he's outside. In the room, he's always still the dear young boy of Takaki. Takaki looked back into Chinen's eyes, and stared into them. "Chii-tan, what did you just said?

Chinen have started to shiver in his spot, and he looked up at Takaki. "Yuyan, I'm scared. I don't want to continue like this anymore. That woman, have made us suffered enough,"

"That's why we need revenge!" Takaki shouted, as he broke the glass on the top of the drawer. "I don't want anyone to hurt you anymore, Chii-tan. I want to protect you! Have you forgotten what that woman did to you!? The one that called you Yuri!?"

Chinen covered his ears, and looked down to his legs. A big scar was on it, and it can never be erased. "NO!" Chinen shouted. Takaki hurriedly came over, and hugged him into his embrace. "Chii-tan, that's why, we need to brace ourselves up, and not get hurt by any woman. That's why, before any woman comes to hurt us, we hunt them first. We're living as predators, we've no choice but to hunt, Chii-tan,"

"Nii-chan...." Chinen whimpered in Takaki's chest.

"Aiko-nee, you're home!" Riko shouted, as she pounced onto Aiko when she opened the door. "Riko, I'm home,"

"Welcome back!" Riko smiled, as she let go of Aiko, and took over her bag. "Aiko-nee, you should really dress up, you looked so baggy and so manly," Riko commented, when she started to observe Aiko from head to toe.

"What?" Aiko rolled her eyes. Riko observed down, from her head, she tied her hair up into a pony-tail, and her top, is a collar t-shirt. Down her legs, was her light blue jeans, and her shoes were the covered shoe. "Will guys even look at you?" Riko commented. Aiko sighed, "Look here, I'm working as a director. There's no need for me to dress up until so nicely, when I will be shouting and screaming at my workers,"

Riko pouted slightly, and turned around to walk back to her room. "Aiko-nee, you should just quit your job,"

"How about you quitting as a chief editor sounds?" Aiko said, as she used the shoe cupboard as a support, and took off her shoes. Riko turned around, and widened her eyes. "Not in a million years!"

"Same for me too," Aiko said, as she smiled, and passed by Riko, as she patted her head. "Aiko-nee, you're seriously a bully,"

"I'm learning it from you, Riko," Aiko singed her words, as she grabbed the apron from the kitchen, and started cooking dinner for the two of them. While cooking halfway, Riko's phone ringed, and she excused herself to pick it up. Aiko suddenly felt a sharp pain in her head, as she dropped the utensil that was on her hand onto the floor. She squatted down onto the floor, and the doctor's words have flashed by inside her mind.

"You need to be prepared, it's time a unknown bomb in your head right now. Even we as a doctor don't know when it's going to burst. But, at most, you only have four months to go,"

"Damn it!" Aiko cursed, before she braced herself up, and continued cooking, just in time before Riko stepped inside the kitchen again. "Aiko-nee! Did I told you, that I broke up with Hayato?"

Aiko's mouth widened, as she turned back. "And you know, I met this guy called Takaki Yuya. He's seriously hot!" Riko said again. Aiko etched her eyebrows, and wondered why is Riko fine, despite breaking up with her boyfriend? Aiko sighed, as she turned back to her wok. "Aiko-nee?" Riko called out. She walked up towards Aiko, and Aiko seems to be dazing off in space. "Aiko-nee! It's burning!" Aiko jolted out from her thoughts, and hurriedly bought the wok to the basin to rinse it off.

"Aiko-nee, are you missing.... Saito-nii-chan?" Riko mumbled. Aiko laughed it off, "What are you talking about? He had migrated to America with Kiri-chan already. Don't mention anymore,"

Aiko continued washing the wok, while Riko stood at the side, knowing that she've definitely guessed it correctly- for a hundred percent.

"Aiko-nee, are you fine?" Riko asked, as she sit across Aiko on the dining room, and looked up to Aiko. Aiko smiled, and looked at Riko, "I'm fine, don't worry so much, alright?"

Riko nodded her head, and continued nibbling her foods.

Aiko pounced onto her bed, and she looked down to her palms. "Why is it that it's always me? First, it's Saito, and now, it's this stupid tumor. How long do you want to make me suffer?" she whispered to herself, her tears started to form at the tip of her eyes. "I wonder, why..."

Aiko drifted off to sleep.

"Chii-tan, you're going to meet the girl today? Why not bring me along?" Takaki said, as he placed his hands around Chinen's shoulders. Chinen shrugged it off. "Yuyan, behave yourself!" Erika laughed at the brother love both of them are showing early in the morning.

"Hello?" Aiko have picked up the call she have recieved early in the morning. "Chii?"

This have made Riko rushed over, and pressed her ear against the handphone. "So, can we meet today?" Riko started to pester Aiko to agree. "Um... but I ..." Riko started to shake Aiko hard, making her head hurt like hell. "Right, sure." Riko have made a sign of victory when Aiko have finally put down the phone. "So, where are you guys meeting? And who is this Chii guy!?"

"Met him yesterday at the back of the mall. I fall down, and he helped me up," Aiko explained, as she went into her room, and locked the room door. Few minutes later, she came out with her top and jeans. "AIKO-NEE! You're going for a date! COME WITH ME!" Riko shouted, as she dragged Aiko into her room, and she revealed what's behind her cupboard. "I'm going with you! This is for you, and I'm wearing this! Now go and change!" Riko pushed Aiko into the toilet. Aiko sighed. Reluctantly, she put on the pink frilly dress that her younger sister have passed it to her. She tied her hair up, and let down her fringe.

"Your prey is long. Did she realized that you're going to eat her up?" Takaki whispered into Chinen's ears. "Remind me Yuyan, why are you here?"

"To recognized your prey, my dear brother," Takaki whispered, as he constantly looked around. "She's here," Chinen whispered.

Aiko ran up to her, and panted hard and loud. "Sorry Chii, I'm late. This is my younger sister, Takasugi Riko,"

Takaki have glance at Chinen, and Chinen have probably caught it. Why did the girl called him 'Chii'? Didn't he used a made-up name? Takaki was very curious- because this wasn't the way Chinen handled the operation. For Takaki, he always uses his real name. He made a mental note in his head to get back to the issue again.

Takaki then widened his eyes, and pretended that he didn't know. "Ri-chan!?"

Riko, who had her hands on her knees looked up, and realized it was none other than Takaki Yuya. "Taka-kun! What... Why?"

"I'm his older brother," Takaki said, as he pointed to Chinen. Riko shaped her mouth into an oval shape, and looked at Chinen. "So this guy here is the 'Chii' that Aiko-nee was calling about," Aiko have used her elbow to hit into Riko's stomach. Riko rubbed her stomach, before pouting slightly. "Let's go?" Chinen finally sounded, as he grabbed hold onto Aiko's hand, and dragged her away. Riko was staring at the hands, when Takaki have caught hold of hers as well.

"It's crowded, I don't want me and Ri-chan to get separated," Takaki commented, his head turning away. Riko smiled, as she grabbed tightly onto Takaki's hand.

"You've not much time to live, so live while you can, enjoy while you can, experience while you can,"

Aiko shake her head, as she suddenly heard the sound of the doctor's voice inside her head once again. She grabbed tighter onto Chinen's hand, which made him turned around and looked at Aiko. He was greeted with a pale, and white face. "Ai-chan? What's wrong?" Chinen sounded. Aiko's palm started to turn icy cold, and he hurriedly helped her to a bench. "Shit, we've lost Yuyan and Riko. Ai-chan, you alright?"

Aiko started to breadth hard, and had difficulty saying out the words. "Chii, don... don't tell this to.... Ri... Riko,"

Chinen looked at the said girl. "Sure, no problem,"

"Thank you," Aiko said, as she struggled to get up. Her legs were weak, and she knew she would not be stable, even though she got up. Her leg lose the energy, and she nearly fall, when Chinen got up in the nick of the time to help her up the arm.

"Are you really alright? You seemed so weak..." Chinen mumbled, as he helped the girl onto the bench behind them.

A bitter smile soon was plastered onto Aiko's face. She looked up to the sky, and her tears slowly fell down. "The doctor discovered a brain tumor in my brain four years ago. And now, they're telling me that, it's going to burst any moment, and I'm going to die,"

Aiko's words were slowly digested by Chinen as he stood there and continued listening to the girl's words, clearly and carefully. "I'm sorry for making you listen to my boring story," Aiko apologized soon, as she used the back of her palm to dried her tears. "Let's go," Aiko murmured.

Chinen gazed at Aiko's back, as she slowly staggered off. His heart flinched slightly.

What is this feeling? he thought, before rushing up to help Aiko in her steps.
