The police arrived at the scene and started to investigate. The whole place is crowded by people as they get pushed back by the police. The unconscious victims that the people found is already on the way to the hospital to receive treatment.
They're looking after the young woman in the hospital to question her later. The police officer Michizugawa then walked towards the place where the event had happened. He examined the place and looked at the stab mark in the wall. Then he looked at it for a moment before he headed towards the place where there were messy footprints and used it as his guide. He walked while looking at the footprint with a frown in his face
'Is the person being chased by the serial killer drunk?'
He saw that the path that the other victim is heading is so irregular. Michizugawa then checks the walls that the footprint is headed and saw a mark on the walls
'The person is bumping everywhere. It's possible that it's a drunkard, but the people said that they heard a female voice that's shouting. Is it possible that the one they hear is the victim that's currently heading to the hospital?'
Michizugawa then continued tracing the lead
'Maybe will be able to confirm it once the woman wakes up. We'll be able to determine the time between her being attacked and the time where shout is heard'
He then reached the place where the scene has a sign of struggle. He looked at the pool of blood and looked around. He's sure now that there's other victim other than the one in the hospital
'The victim then is attacked here, looking at this scene, the victim is still alive, The amount of blood that the victim loses is not enough to kill someone. So the victim is still alive, though I'm not sure how much longer'
Michizugawa hears a footsteps and looked back as he saw his colleagues appeared. He greets them and and step aside to let them do their job. He then follow the drop of blood and emerge at an exit. He looked around then saw a car tires mark on the road and looked at the direction the can sped up to
Michizugawa looked around the place and saw a surveillance camera across the road. He then headed there to check the footage
…
Yamato is running to their headquarters as he received report that Ilaya has been abducted by the serial killer. The moment he received the news after waking up. He immediately rushed to report to his boss
He rode his motorbike and speed up as time will dictates whether Ilaya will live or die. He reached the headquarters and headed inside the grocery store. Then, he passed the store clerk and entered the doors baring his way. Yamato wanted to rushed upstairs but was stopped by the person whose guarding the entrance
"Yamato, where are you going? It's late now so the boss is sleeping. Why are you in such a hurry?"
"I have something extremely urgent Intel to report to boss!
Yamato exclaimed as he was frustrated that time is losing even now. He knows that Ilaya is his target for spying and he only approaches her to obtain Intel, but he somewhat likes that woman. She's friendly and clumsy, so she's fun to tease. He didn't want Ilaya to die
The guard then looked at him worriedly
"I-is it about our rival group? Are they launching an attack?
Yamato then complained
"Do you want us to be killed by the boss!? Don't ask what you shouldn't! Anyway, can you wake up the boss? It's really an urgent Intelligence that I'm worried that she'll kill me if I didn't tell her sooner!"
The commotion is heard upstairs and the lieutenants descended below to checked what's going on
"What's this commotion all about?"
The first lieutenants asked as the other high ranking persons followed him. Yamato stuttered as he felt the pressure of their gazes and said in a trembling voice
"I-its about the highest priority target of the boss. I received news from our spy that she had been kidnapped by the serial killer. I-I feel that she's extremely important to boss, so I decided to go here to report"
Yamato then sighed
"I think it's better not to waste our time now. Time is of the essence if we want to find her alive!"
The first lieutenant frowned he pondered about his word. He received a news the other day that the boss personally goes to observe a woman that has a unknown origin
'Maybe it's her?'
The first lieutenant then speaks
"Alright, I'll wake-"
Only to be cut off by a female voice
"No need, I already heard it"
A familiar and confident voice sounded as Kyora Ivana, also known as Oni(Demon) by the other rival groups descended from the stairs. The people below greeted and bowed to the head of the family
"Greetings boss"
The people around keeps bowing and feel that the atmosphere became uncomfortable. They sometimes see their boss around and they feel a pride and confidence oozing out of her. Now however, what they felt has changed from from the awe inspiring boss to a killer that's preparing for hunt. Everyone has a thought flashed through their mind
"'Is the boss going to personally take action?'"
Then, Ivana looks around the place and said in a steady voice
"Get up, all of you. Yamato, where's the location of the kidnapping?
Yamato then answered
"It's on the south border of Shinjuku boss, the vehicle that the killer used is headed north east of Shinjuku"
Ivana then looked at the lieutenants
"1st lieutenant, gather half of our members and let them head towards the north, north east, and east of the location where the kidnapping happened. Also, deploy some of the troops to the North west and south east. Bulk the searching members in the first three directions. 2nd lieutenant you're in charge of the security of the bases. Tell the people that's not going to join the search to strengthen their defense at our important bases and to be on high alert"
She then looked at the general manager
"Manager, call all of our connection and let them use their sources to look for a vehicle around that time of the kidnapping. You can also bribe some of the police officer to tip us off if they find any lead"
Then, she said at the people at the back manning their computers
"Surveillance team, look for the footage in our cameras in that location to look for traces of the vehicle. You can hack into the surveillance cameras of other establishments there if you don't find any in our cameras"
Then she looked at them then said before walking up upstairs
"That's all, you can start now"
Ivana didn't need to see that they're already scrambling around. She walked to her office and looked at the side of the wall. She pressed a part of a wall to reveal a hidden room. Inside, there's so many blades of different styles and classes hanging up on display. She's an avid collector of all kinds of blades around the world and she feels satisfaction when she sees them.
She turned her head towards the katana in the center. A red bladed katana with a scabbard of red is her main weapon that she always used. She looked at the blade reminiscing the time when her grandfather gifted it to her when she's still a child. She then shook her head and headed toward the corner where knives are placed. She picked two daggers then descended downstairs to go into her car. As she's walking, she thought
'I'm repaying you by saving the person connected to you the most. With this, we no longer owed you'
The foundation of their family is due to the mysterious woman helping them in their hard times when they almost got wiped out, due to their enemies forming an alliance to eradicate the Yakuza. The mysterious woman, according to her grandfather, goes into action by charging straight at the main bases of the heads of the alliance and killed them. This caused the alliance and the groups themselves to lose cohesion and collapse from within
Ivana reached her car and drove off, along the way, she thought of Ilaya
'Also, you're the only one I know that has our power, I'll be able to get clues as to why we have this power when no one else has it. And maybe… solve my curse'
She speed up her car as she races through the road
'I will never let you die'
She grips her steering wheel tightly
'So stay alive… Ilaya'
Then, her car vanished rapidly in the distance
