Day 14

“Do you want to get yourself killed?”

I was sitting on the couch with ice on my wounds when I heard Riggs ask me. “You don’t just go after her like that when she kicks you down. That’s how you get yourself killed,” she said. “Hmmm… Well you seem to be pretty much alive right now?” I said sarcastically. I heard laughing behind me and I turned around to see Kayvroni chuckling to herself. “She’s right you know,” she said. Riggs turned at me and smiled that’s bitchy smile when they think they’re right. But she wasn’t. “I haven’t killed you yet, soooo…” She shrugged her shoulders and added “Stop picking on her. You’re just jealous,” she said to Riggs. “Jealous of what? How?” “I’m sure you can figure it out Rachel. Although, it might smack you in the head and you wont even realize it.” I laughed. “I hate you,” Riggs said to Her. “You wish you could hate me. Me on the other hand? I do hate you,” She said. “I may have been here literally a day, but don’t be mistaken. From where I come from, I have no problem killing you myself. Whether I get kicked out or not, it’s not a big loss. So watch it,” I said. “You heard the lady!” Kay shouted from the other side of the room. I think we both heard Riggs mumble “disgusting” under her. “Would you really kill her?” Kay asked me. “Is she a threat to you?” I asked back. She shut her mouth the little it was open and turned her attention to the wall. “Besides, I don’t think you would want me to anyway,” I said and I actually did the getting up and walking away.

 

It stayed quite for a couple of days.

The whole team was just making preparations, cleaning, doing paper work. Kay and Riggs would bicker here and there, but nothing too major. Kay went back to school, which meant I went back to school as an operative on standby. It was kind of sad to see her with all of her friends, acting normal, when she knows in the back of her head she could get killed at any moment. I wonder if any of them knew, but I never asked. That’s all personal business. I would blend in with the crowd so nothing would be suspicious, but she knew I was there, and she knew I was watching her. It was always like that. When she would get out, I would be waiting for her at the front gates and follow her home. But she never went home. I’ve waited for her to go home, just because if she did, I knew she would be okay. But she didn’t go home for a while. Actually, looking back, I don’t think she went home for months. To stay and sleep there anyway.

Back at the base, there was a meeting in the conference room. We were talking about up coming missions and just updates on everything. I looked around and didn’t see Kay. I looked over to Takashi and mouthed, “Where’s Kay?” He didn’t seem to know either, so he just shrugged his shoulders. After the meeting was over, I went back to my room to see if She was there. She wasn’t. I left the room and looked down the hall to see Leeha walking towards me. “Have you seen Riggs?” she asked me. “No, I was actually just gunna ask you if you saw Kay?” She shook her head, and then a worried look appeared on her face. I think I read her mind, as to wherever Kay was, Riggs was. We looked everywhere, and then we finally found them in the training room. They seemed pretty calm, just standing facing each other. Leeha and I went into the control room, and we turned on the speaker. “She interrupted me! Remove her!” We heard Kay screaming in a sarcastic tone. We decided to actually walk into the training room incase they broke out in a fight, you never know with them. “Babe, really. Stop this. I just want to talk. I wont fight I promise,” Riggs pleaded to Kay. “NO. You don’t deserve to call me babe. Not anymore, you’re fucking crazy-“ “I’m fucking crazy?! You’re fucking crazy for letting that- girl- be your new partner!” Riggs yelled. “I don’t even like you! Go away!” Kay said and turned her back and stomped her foot like a little kid. “Babe-“ “NO.” “But ba-“ “NO.” “Reall-“ “I said no!” and Kay turned back around and walked up to Riggs. She grabbed her face where they were so close they’re noses were touching. “No.” She said and walked past her. Riggs turned around and her head followed her. She turned her attention to me. She walked over to me and opened her mouth. “Its not my fault you two can’t settle your problems. It’s not my fault you two have relationship problems. Don’t talk to me. I don’t like you,” I said to her before she could speak.

Then she slapped me across the face. Leeha stopped in her tracks with her jaw dropped. Just then the rest of the team came in with their jaws dropped too. Even Kayvroni’s jaw was dropped, and then it turned into a stern, pissed off look. Even I was pretty shocked, I just stood there with a confused look on my face. So I punched her in the face and said, “We’re not in kindergarten. We use fists.” She flew back then regained her balance. Now she was the one who was shocked. “What the fuck!?” Who the fuck do you think you are!?” When she’s mad, she’s pretty loud. The second our feet left the ground to charge at each other, I heard the other voices screaming but I couldn’t make out about what. “Kay no!” I heard in the background. Right when my fist was going to meet Rachel’s face, Kay appeared in the middle of us. She swung around pushed me to the ground and whipped out a gun. She pointed it right to Rigg’s head. “Don’t do anything stupid Kayvroni!” Sato said. I was really surprised she pulled a gun on Rachel. “Kay… what are you doing…?” Riggs said in a low voice. The barrel of the gun was pressed right up to her forehead- her favorite place to rest a gun. She stood so still, Kayvroni, with the gun in her hand. I’ll never forget the look on the both of their faces. With her left hand, She cocked the gun and put her hand back down. “Don’t- you ever touch her,” She whispered in a low severe voice. I saw her lightly pulling down on the trigger, but I don’t know if it was to scare her, or she really was going to. Before anything serious happened, I got up and walked over to her. “Kay… Lets put the gun down,” I said and put my hand on her wrist and slowly moved it down. The gun pointed down so it wasn’t pointed at her head point blank anymore. Although, She deliberately shot her gun between Riggs’ feet, which scared the crap out of all of us, no one was hurt. I took her gun out of her hand and put it on the floor, and kicked it to Sato, and then I took her wrist and walked her out of the room. We walked up to our room and I locked the door. I stood leaning against the door with my arms folded. I just stood there and stared at her.
