Diamond in the Foxes chp 4
Chapter 1 Chapter 2 Chapter 3
FIRST MISSION!!! I’ll try to make this as ‘action-y’ as possible. Action isn’t quite my best spot. But I’ll give it my all!!
The Next Morning…..(Krystal’s POV)
Last night I packed all my things. But here’s what: I’m only comfortable and do my missions best in my Black Diamond outfit. But will the Foxes recognize my outfit is the question. And I can’t really risk messing up the mission either… And I have no time to interrogate the others if they have seen Black Diamond before….Y’know what? Screw it.
I’ll just change some of my clothing…Like wear a gray long sleeved shirt instead of my gray one, change my white skirt to a gray one, and change my heels to some black sneakers. I really hope this is good enough.. I could totally make up a good excuse for why I look some-what like Black Diamond, right?
Hiro and I made our way to the airport to meet Riki and Kenshi there.
“Took you guys long enough. I’ve been waiting here for 10 minutes…” Riki sassed.
“Hey, not our fault for your impossible expectations” I sassed back.
Riki and I didn’t quite get along well since we were little. Which causes our bickering, lecturing, and sassing at eachother. But we know in the end, we wouldn’t have wanted to change a thing!
“Isn’t it ‘we’ ? You know I’m here too you know…” Kenshi frowned.
“I said “I’ve “ because I know you can wait. But I can’t” Riki explained
“What’s taking Takkun and Boss so long?? Our flight is leaving in 15 minutes!” Hiro looked around.
“You know Takkun’s not a morning person..But I’m sure he’ll be here on time.” I tried to re-assure Hiro and then mumbled “I hope anyway…”
Riki and Kenshi are calling Atsumu, while me and Hiro are trying to call Takuto.
“I’m almost there okay? Just give me 30 seconds!” Atsumu panted over the phone.
“Alright! Thanks!” Kenshi smiled and hung up.
“Shut up, I’m almost there okay? Geez..” Takuto grumbled over the phone.
About 15 seconds later, Atsumu burst through the door and yelled “I’M HERE!!!!”
“Okay, no need to attract attention…” Riki lectured.
“Sorry *pant* I just wanted to *pant* inform you that” Atsumu panted
“Maybe you should rest…You seem tired.” Kenshi observed.
“I’ll be sitting on the airplane *pant* for most of the time *pant*, so no thanks.” Atsumu said.
Just as Atsumu said that, Takuto walked in.
“Stop being so anti-social Takkun!!” Hiro whined.
“Stop with that annoying voice then.” Takuto shot back.
“At least he’s still himself..” I giggled, amused.
Takuto looked over to the panting Atsumu and commented:
“Heh, you’re so old. We should’ve left you here.”
“Takkun!!! That’s so mean!! And I’m supposed to come with you anyways!” Atsumu pouted a bit.
“Stop being so mean to boss guys…” Kenshi frowned.
“Listen to the smart guy..” I backed Kenshi up.
“I’m the only smart one here. The rest of you are dumbasses” Takuto insulted.
“EXCUSE ME?!?!” The rest of the Foxes and I glared at Takuto
“I’m just stating the truth…” Takuto
“Look, either drop this and leave with us, or drop this and we drop you.” Riki threatened.
“If it means not getting to see Beardy’s face all the time, I’m happy with staying here.” Takuto told Riki dryly.
“That wasn’t a choice. We’re leaving now. Whether you like it or not.” Riki dragged Takuto with us.
“If you already made your decision, don’t ask.” Takuto informed him.
“The way you responded to me just means that I need to be more strict with you..” Riki growled.
“Who died and made you my dad anyway?” Takuto retorted.
“No one died and I aint your father. I’m your leader. So listen now.” Riki dragged us all on the airplane.
Okay, OW!! He really didn’t have to pull my hair! It’s precious!!
We pretty much almost hogged one row of the airplane. There were 4 seats in the middle, and 2 seats on the sides. Which amounted to 8 seats in one row. I got the window seat, YAY! And Riki’s sitting next to me. Bummer.
Hiro was in one of the 4 seats in the middle with Kenshi, Atsumu, and Takuto.
Hiro sat the furthest away…boo…
We sat on the airplane for a good 15 minutes until it finally took off.
“Finnaaaalllllyyyy!!!! It took FOREVERRRR!!!” I whined.
“Stop the complaining, at least we took off now instead of later.” Takuto shot at me.
Okay, he may be right, but I’m an impatient bitch okay?
“Whatever…How long is this supposed to be? I hate airplanes.” I stated and questioned at the same time.
“Also, the decor here is boring as fuck. There’s nothing interesting. There couldn’t have been a pink airplane with like…flowers?? Or black with stars? Or-” I got cut off though.
“Geez, you talk like there’s no tomorrow. The plane ride is supposed to be 16 hours, no one likes airplanes kay? And yeah, this is an airplane. And your decor ideas are awful. No wonder why they made it gray. And we get it, you’ll complain about every living thing there is.” Riki explained and insulted me.
“Coming from you, Riki? Heh, sorry but you complain about every living thing when you’re drunk.” Kenshi chuckled.
“Wait what? How bad can Drunk Riki be?” I asked
Oh yeah, reminds me, I need to get him drunk one day.
“Hey, what I do drunk is no one’s business-” Riki sassed but got cut off by Takuto
“He’s a complete buffoon when he’s drunk. End of story.”
Takuto didn’t even look up from his laptop…
“Hello there! What can I get for you?” The flight attendant lady looked at Riki.
“Some peace and quiet, thank you..” Riki said, dryly.
“Be nice to the lady would you?” I snapped.
“How about no? I’m focusing right now..” Riki glared at me.
“Sure you are…” I continued looking out the window.
“A-Anyways…You’re really hot…” The flight attendant lady blushed.
“Yeah, I know now if you excuse me, I have more important things to do than grace you with my presence…” Riki continued playing with his phone.
“U-Um..Alright then…” The flight attendant lady walked away.
I don’t know whether to feel bad for the lady for either 1. Being stupid enough to bother talking to Riki, or 2. Actually falling for Riki. Hmm…The former defiantly.
“Reeeeaaalll smooth Rikkun. You don’t treat ladies like that.” Hiro frowned.
“It’s Riki’s nature Hiro. Don’t even bother.” Atsumu reassured him.
“More like it’s his personality…” Takuto smirked.
“Very funny guys..” Riki still didn’t look up from his phone.
That’s the narcissistic jerk we learnt to know and love everyday. I don’t even know how we put up with him either…oh well.
TIME SKIP!! (Cause we -at least me- don’t wanna read -or write- about airplane stuff okay??)
We landed (FINALLY) in Germany. And boy, was this the most craziest thing ever. I’m glad I knew a bit of German from my German aunt and uncle. Oh well, let’s roll!
“Uggghh finally. I really can’t feel my bones..” Atsumu stretched.
“Maybe because you broke them on the ride here.” Takuto suggested.
“I DID NOT DO SUCH THING!” Atsumu denied.
“All I did was walk a few times to the bathroom…” Atsumu added softly.
“Maybe….Maybe it was too much??” I hesitantly half-assumed.
“I’M NOT THAT OLD OKAY??? I’M ONLY 35!! I’M NOT AT A AGE WHERE I CAN CRUSH MY BONES BY WALKING!!” Atsumu shouted.
“People of all ages could crush their bones either way.” Hiro said a matter-of-factly..
“He has a point y’know..” Riki pointed out.
“See? Even leader agrees with me!” Hiro bragged.
“Yeah whatever…can we go now?” Takuto asked, impatiently.
“Yeah, let’s go. It’s the evening.” Riki then whispered “We still have time before the mission.”
“What? That soon??” I whisper-shouted.
“We only have 1 or 2 days here. Better done earlier than later.” Riki pointed out.
I hated to admit other people were right. I guess that’s been a part of me. I wouldn’t exactly say it’s a trait either though…
TIME SKIP
Ughhhh Finally! We had to sort through soooooo much airplane stuff!! It took about 45 minutes, which was still really long. But here we are. during a mission. With me as Black Diamond and running away from my friends. It started a little something like this:
Earlier/Flashback
We were dressed in our outfits (I had a white backpack with my black backpack in it).
Though I have NO IDEA what Hiro was wearing! He looked like one of those security guards at the entrance of the museum.
He must’ve noticed my clueless face and explained to me “I’m disguising as one of the security guards. Just go ahead and carry on with the mission okay?”
“Umm…Alright…” I accepted.
So this was the premise. Riki and I were to steal the painting, Takuto is behind the scenes hacking and disabling all of the alarms and traps, Kenshi is going to be a divergence (or a distraction) to the guards guarding the safe where the gem was. And Hiro is apparently disguised as a guard for some unknown reason… Oh, and Atsumu was just somewhere, planning an emergency exit.
We all went, down and ready. Hiro went to blend in with the guards, Kenshi was sneaking in, waiting for his cue, Takuto was in a black van (HOW did they get that here, I don’t know..), Riki and I were ‘sneakily sneaking in’ the building, (this place has so many guards, but they’re all so stupid to NOT notice Kenshi, Riki, Hiro and I sneaking in.)
Riki and I were looking around, HOW DO THE GAURDS SEE IT THIS DARKNESS?!?!? Like geez! If the moon wasn’t shining, I would have bumped in to 10 objects already! But it was still dim either way.
We reached the safe where the jewel was hidden. And we silently signaled Kenshi to distract the guards while we tried to stay out of sight.
Kenshi came down a moment after we hidden and ran.
Then, Hiro came not a moment later and shouted
“There’s someone in here!!”
And the two guards went with Hiro to chase Kenshi.
After they were a safe distance away, Riki and I, with the help of Takuto, hacked in to the safe and took the gem, while I placed the Black Foxes card, to signal that we were here. I closed the safe and Riki and I made our escape.
While Riki was busy telling everyone we got the gem in to the transmitter, I was hiding, changing in to my Black Diamond get-up, putting on a black backpack (and stuffing the white one in to the black one), chalk-dying my blue tips brown, putting in hazel coloured contacts, and scenting myself for good measure.
Riki finished telling everyone and turned around to find out I wasn’t there. He told everyone I was missing in the transmitter and then grumbled “I leave you for 1 minute and you get lost..” While trying to find me.
I saw Riki gathering with the Black Foxes and I took that as my cue. I dashed and snatched the gem out of Riki’s hand.
“I’ll take this!” I spoke in a different, more snarky voice then my normal one.
“Hey!” Riki dived for me but missed because I ran away.
“WHO ARE YOU???” Riki demandedly asked.
I decided to risk my chances because my mouth works before my brain apparently..
I smirked “The name’s Black Diamond. REMEMBER ME!”
“AFTER HER!” Riki ordered.
End of Flashback
So yeah, here I am. Running away from my friends. I saw a platform that lead to a building and that meant my escape. I leaped on to the platform and flipped on to the building. Then I jumped from building to building (this was becoming too much of a routine now) and successfully escaped.
FINALLY! That took forever!
I went to the nearest empty ally way and changed back to my original clothes, took the coloured contacts out, sprayed back my original scent, and brushed my hair with a wet bruch to get the hair chalk out. I put the gem in the black backpack and then took out the white backpack and stuffed the black backpack in it (confusing aint it?)
I gathered all my things, checked myself in the mirror one last time, and went as fast as I can back to the museum.
Meanwhile, with the Black Foxes
“How does this happen? I leave Krystal for one moment, then that girl stole the gem..” Riki paced back and forth in the van.
“Yeah, who was that girl? It couldn’t have been Krystal because she smelled different.” Kenshi observed.
“Let’s just hope Krystal-chan is back safely! She might have been captured by that girl.” Hiro worried.
“She said her name was Black Diamond..” Atsumu pondered.
“I’ve never seen a mission fail so quickly. She was here one moment, then POOF!” Hiro made a fist, then flicked all his fingers outwards, indicating a ‘poof’ “Gone the next!” Hiro finished
“Calm down idiots, you’re giving me a head-ache..” Takuto grumbled.
The door to the van opened 3 minutes later and everyone snapped their heads at it.
“OMG!! KRYSTAL WHERE WERE YOU!?!?!?” Hiro pulled Krystal in and squeezed the life out of her.
“U-Um…I’ll explain *gasp* after you let…me…go…!” Krystal wheezed.
“Oh, sorry..” Hiro let Krystal go.
Krystal’s POV
Riki closed the van doors and Takuto drived away. Riki turned around after Takuto started moving the van and shouted:
“WHERE DID YOU DISAPPEAR TO?!?!”
“I’m SORRY OKAY?!?!” I held my hands up in surrender and squeaked.
“Explain NOW!” Riki looked pissed.
“Well, when I ‘disappeared’ ,” I used my fingers as quotation marks “I saw a girl sneaking off. So I followed her. I lost her after a second and I saw her a moment later while hearing you yelling. I tried to follow her to the best of my ability. But I lost her at about the 2 minute point. I found the van three minutes later and here I am.” I expertly lied.
I’ve been hiding my identity my whole life. I’ve mastered lying at this point. Not to brag BTW.
“Well, her name was Black Diamond” Kenshi told me.
“And she stole the gem.” Riki grumbled.
“Oh…so that’s why you were yelling..” I pretended to be surprised.
“Yeah…Anyway, mission failed.” Riki grumbled.
“Don’t look so down. You have a gazillion chances on getting other pieces of grandpa’s work.” I smiled as I tried to re-assure Riki.
“I guess…Anyways, what are we gonna do now?” Riki asked.
“Easy, go back home and plan the next mission.” I sassed.
“Very funny..” Riki said.
“Okay break it up, we’ll decide later..”
The rest of the car van ride was spent in silence.
I hope I can keep this Black Diamond thing for as long as I can…
Was that good enough? Was there a good amount of action??
