"I'm sorry, Miss Kazuya, but it's a total write-off. It'd be cheaper for you to replace it than to pay for the repairs."
"Aww, man."
Ryou couldn't believe that she'd totalled her car. And technically, it hadn't even been her fault. They'd been tailing a new witch, whose craft gave him a limited control over time itself - he was able to create specific time lags over a particular individual or other moving object. This apparently included vehicles.
Ryou had ran a red light during their chase and she swore they would have been able to make it through, had their witch not put a lag on her car and slowed them to a complete standsti

Ryou’s life seemed to fall into a routine again. She loved that. Having her days already organised for her made everything so much easier.
Plus she was so happy to be back at the STN-J. She’d missed her old co-workers and Haruto was proving to be a good partner, if a little hasty. She’d even managed to get him to stop calling her ‘miss’. He was still calling her Kazuya, but that was an improvement – most people tended to call her that anyway. Was anybody ever going to just call her Ryou?
“So what have we got this time?” Haruto wheeled his chair across the floor so that he could look o

Ryou Kazuya was happy to be back in Japan. Not only had she been living back at her home again for the last week; she was also starting back at her old job today.
She’d been working at the STN-J for just over a year when she’d been transferred to an overseas case, since her older sister had been an integral part of the witch hunting that had been going on over there. The case had been solved and Ryou had taken a few extra jobs whilst she was over there, happy to be with her sister. She’d eventually gotten a call from the STN-J – who had kept her job open for her, since they were the ones who had referred her ove
Chapter Six:
A witch must be involved. The rain that fell was poisonous only to other witches - things like that weren't' natural. Now that they found this out the real problem was finding who did it. The problem with that was the hunt came with the hitch that they had to leave the country and couldn't investigate it.
They drove for hours pondering about their situation as Michael pounded away on his laptop for clues.
"Hey guys," Michael started, drawing everyone's attention to him. "Do you remember Cid? The invisible boy?"
"Ah, the one that got away." Sakaki sighed.
"How could we forget?' Robin hoarsely added.
"Get this! He had t
Look At Me
There was one thing that bothered Amon when on the hunt, it was also one thing he wound not do.
Slowly walking down a deserted street, Amon found himself thinking about it again. There was a crash and he looked up to see someone stumbling onto the street, knocking into trash cans. It was a man, clutching his head in pain.
"I know why you shoot." Amon recalled the words of the past. In this profession, it was often that someone wanted out, but with the knowledge that they had they would be put to death. The STN couldn't afford to have people reveal it's secrets. An encounter with one such case changed him.
"I shoot because
He didn't know why he did it. It hurt him too, his stomach twisting up into knots. This recurring memory was the cause of all his nightmares and all his regrets.
Pain
He understood from the beginning that it would come to this. Over and over he told this himself, as a sick distraction from what he was about to do. And always the ever-pressing, nagging thought would come into is head.
You're hunting her because she saved you.
And again his loyal thoughts would shoot back that it didn't matter, all her saving him did was prove that she would and would kill.
But hadn't we always known that? She had to kill when working at HQ anyway- and

Chapter One: Robin: I hide behind the dream
In the darkness there was nothing. First came pain, everywhere it spread until it numbed away. Next came sound, rhythmically like the sound of breathing. Was there also the sound of leaves crunching underfoot? The thought stuck as a third arrived. The third thing to come was movement, her body bobbed lightly with the sound. She could feel her arms wrapped around something and her legs hanging limp.
Robin opened her eyes to the hazy result of keeping them closed for days. She knew who was carrying her before they adjusted to this and the light. "Amon?" Her voice croaked from lack of use
