Hotaru was running as fast as her legs would let her to the graveyard. The little girl was psychotic, but this was low even for Hana and whatever group she managed to get together. Part of her knew, just KNEW, that this was a trap, but when the little box with violet hair(Greg violet hair specifically) inside showed up at her doorstep, she didn't want to take a chance on it. The redhead's heart was racing, and for a split second she wondered if Tekka and Jack had been able to keep up with her as she bolted out the door. She hadn't said anything, just ran for it. If Hana had dug up Greg's body the Tora wanted to be sure that SHE was the one to catch her and SHE was the one to show the evil Tora a completely new definition of mutilation.
---
Hana was sitting on a particular head stone rather impatiently. The head stone was labeled with the name of Hotaru's once best friend Greg, which if the little Tora was right would be exactly where the redhead would come to. After the little gift Hana had left for her... well... there was no doubt in Hana's mind that Mommy would get here soon. It wasn't like Hana actually dug up the body to begin with, bleach, hair dye, and scissors has never been so useful before for her. It was just too much work to dig up the body and Hana was VERY impatient.
Daddy and Brother were hiding somewhere for the moment, she wanted them to be a surprise. It wouldn't be long before Mommy got here along with probably Jack and Tekka. She couldn't wait, this was going to be fun~

Puff had been instructed to hide by Sister, and he was doing a FINE job if he did say so himself. The Graveyard was FILLED with amazingly dark nooks and crannies that could even hide his near-luminescent hair in the night. It helped that it was only a half-moon, though. There wasn't enough light for him to just start glowing... Honestly, he wasn't too sure what the plan was going to be, but he figured that Sister had an idea and that was good enough for him. He'd jump in when he thought it necessary.
----------
Tekka and Jack both bolted after Hotaru, giving each other wary glances about what the hair could have potentially meant. Hana was DEFINITELY making a move, and they were probably walking into a trap. Tekka had her gun, so she wasn't as worried, but she knew her brother had been too worried about Hotaru to even grab his JACKET before sprinting after the redhead. It looked like she was the only one armed, and with being so behind Ruru, that was going to be a problem.
Jack just kept running as they passed the entrance to the graveyard, managing to pick up the pace a little despite the pain in his lungs. He was a pianist, not a Olympic runner, but there was NO WAY he was going to let Hotaru go alone to what could possibly be one of the worst events of her life. Hana was bad, he knew that just from stories, and both Tekka and Ruru had been adamant about her not being dumb enough to try something on her own. That meant she'd have a team, probably of people just as screwed up as she was, and who knew what that would unleash!!

Archer kicked back and smiled to himself as he waited on top of the large tomb that housed one of his government kills. Hana was already in her place awaiting her new Mommy. Puff was hidden so well that even from Archer's top view he could barely see the man. He was completely ready for what was about to go down.
Before he could even see her, Archer heard her solid running as she busted into the cemetery. By the sound of it there was two running along behind her and seriously lacking. He whistle slightly twice to signal the extra two in the party. He prepared himself behind the large gargoyle statue to jump down at a moments notice. He was off to the side a bit and would be able to get down and slink over to the group without the notice of anyone. Things were going to get fun. Archer grinned and looked to Hana.

Hana nodded in response to the whistle she heard from Archer, smiling wide as Hotaru burst through the cemetery and arriving at where the younger girl was. The redhead was out of breath, her face was red from both exhaustion and pure anger and hate for Hana. The brunette was about the greet her before Hotaru snapped at her.
"What did you do?!" snapped the redhead furiously. She looked around, trying to keep her guard up. Hana was bound to have people around somewhere, she just didn't know where. On the upside, it looked as if Greg's grave had been left alone after all. She shot her eyes back up at Hana, sitting on the head stone like it was just another chair. "GET OFF THAT NOW!" she ordered, already feeling herself starting to lose it.
The little brunette just sigh and rolled her eyes, followed by a tiny little grin as she slid off the stone and on her tiny feet. "Calm down, will you? Sit down, relax, take a breather~" she purred, seeing the other two people catching up finally. "Looks like your friends are finally here~" she giggled darkly.

Jack and Tekka skidded to a halt next to the redheaded Tora. Both out of breath (Jack moreso than his thieving sister) and both rather terrified to see the brunette Tora looking so calm.
Though honestly, Tekka was feeling a little more scared about the pure unadulterated RAGE pouring out of Hotaru...
----------
Puff had to stifle a giggle of joy at the sight of the redhead. There was Mommy~!! There she was!! She looked angry right now but Puff was certain she'd warm up to their little family once she spent some time with them... and after Puff gutted that boyfriend of hers. She was HIS Mommy so she should be dating HIS Daddy, not having an affair.

Hana's lips curved upwards even more at the sight of the two Kings as they caught their breath. "Tekka, Sweetie!" she sang merrily. "I've-"
"DON'T you DARE talk to her." growled the redhead sharply. Hana's eyes shifted back to Hotaru, not seeming scared in the slightest. She giggled again actually, taking a few steps closer to Hotaru, to took a few steps back in return, but not releasing her from her glare. "What do you want Hana?"
Hana tilted her head. "What do I want?" she asked innocently. She shrugged. "I want a lot of things. In a perfect world Tekka would be my personal chef, Jack would be an unrecognizable bloody mess, and you'd be my new Mommy~" she paused and giggled, seeing the horrified expression on the redhead's face. "But I guess TWO bloody messes and a new Mommy could work out just fine too." she stopped to look up. "Oh Daaaaddy~ Broooother~" she sang loudly. "Come out here and meet everybody!"
Hotaru tried her best to get all the fear out of her mind. "Get ready you two..." she muttered under her breath. Things were getting messy from here on out.

Tekka jumped at Hotaru's burst of rage. She should really have expected that, but wasn't SHE supposed to be protecting RURU and not the other way around? Maybe Ruru had this under control after all... Or not... The call for reinforcements wasn't very reassuring.
Jack grimaced at Hana's fantasy. A perfect world? Really? Just great... At least it wasn't Hotaru that the villain wanted dead this time. That didn't minimize the danger though..
----------
Puff let his giggles bubble out as he stepped out of his cover, he had come in his work clothes, so his suit was covered in blood this evening. The arms of his suit were drenched in drying blood and he twirled a pair of knives in his hands. "Hello Mommy~!" He sang as he revealed himself, smiling.

Archer had already descended from his hiding place as the trio stopped in front of Hana. His eyes sparkled with the thrill of the hunt. He silently stalked around the graves to get the best angle. He knew Hana saw him so he winked and nodded. As soon as Puff would pull the boy and girl away he would go for Hotaru. He let out a dark chuckle as he weaved invisibly around the cemetery. He knew the would hear it and also made sure it sounded different than normal. He didn't want mommy to figure out that he was who she thought he was quite yet. He sought out Hana's eyes and gave a slight nod to let her know he was in position. Soon Hotaru would be his...

Puff darted over, a white-and-silver blur in the dark night. Me slashed at... Jack (he thought that was the name) with a knife, opening a deep gouge in his back. He grabbed Tekka around the throat as the Ookami hollered in pain, attempting to clutch at his back.
The little blond kicked and struggled, screaming as a cold knife-tip was jabbed into her side. Her eyes widened and she screamed louder, tears welling up from the pain. Oh god... ohgodohgodohgod what was going ON!? Her gun had been dropped in her panic, there was no getting it back. Especially not with a maniac twisting a knife into her abdomen!

Archer grinned and slipped out from behind the graves. He walked silently up behind Hotaru's side. His hands darted out and locked her arms behind her. He grinned behind the mask and turned Hotaru around to look at the two friends that Puff had under control. He made his voice turn a little higher as he looked back at Hana. "Well Princess that went much easier than I thought." he looked down and kicked the gun across the cemetery. He placed his lips at Hotaru's ear and spoke normally. "Hello Darling, did you miss me?" his grin spread and he chuckled darkly.

Hotaru was about to jump in and help Jack and Tekka before she felt someone grab her. She tried to fight against it, but his hold on her was too strong! She needed to help Jack and Tekka! She wasn't gonna let them DIE because of her, she couldn't!! The redhead struggled in his hold for a while longer until he spoke in her ear, then she just froze. "It's you." she muttered, beginning to feel her legs tremble beneath her. It was the guy from the Allure, she didn't know his name, or even what he looked like, but he still managed to scare her just from his voice.
Hana grinned, walking over to pick the gun up, taking a moment to admire the weapon. After a few short seconds later she took the bullets out of it and tossed them behind her, dropping the gun on the ground again. She took her little knife(little was an understatement) out of her purse and calmly strolled her way over to where Puff had Jack and Tekka. "It's okay Brother, you take care of Jack." she grinned again, looking over at the blond. "I can handle Tekka here~" the girl had no weapon, this would be a piece of cake.

Puff chuckled, still smiling. "Okay, Sister~!" He chirped, letting go of the fiery little Tora and making his way over to the back-on-his-feet Ookami.
Tekka gasped for breath and clutched her side. Oh dear god had that hurt... But this was no time to relax, there was still Hana... and Tekka had no gun. She DID have her switchblade and some smoke bombs though... Time for strategy. The blond stumbled back, keeping her left arm holding her side to staunch the blood and draw Hana just a little closer. Tekka could whip out and slash with her switchblade like a pro, but she was feeling weak in the... everywhere, actually. She'd need every advantage she could get.
Jack was faring no better, he stumbled a bit to dodge Puff's slashes but more and more cuts were appearing on his arms and torso and occasionally his face. The suited man was giggling, too. "You're more fun than I thought~!" He sang. "I'm gonna turn you into a puppet~ tear off your head and make it talk like a chipmunk~!" The notion just made him giggle more, though the knives didn't let up on their assault.
"You're insane!" Jack yelped, trying to stumble his way over to help Hotaru, but kept too off-balance by the blades.
"Oh, Big Brother used to say that too!" Puff cheered, landing a deep gash near Jack's stomach. "But only he did things about it, and now he's not here~! I can do whatever I want~!" The butler sing-songed out. There wasn't going to be a hose to the face for this one, there hadn't been since he last saw Morky, and there wouldn't be again unless the elder managed to find him.

Archer chuckled as he watched the scene unfold. He started backing up and pulled Hotaru with him. The masked man's foot hit the grave and he looked down. "Greg. Kind of a simple name if you ask me. Obviously he isn't here to save you now, but it is rather fitting that we're standing above his wilting and dead body." he said into Hotaru's ear. He wasn't kidding when he said he did his homework.
Archer tightened his arm grip on Hotaru's bound arms as he leaned down and picked up the bag he'd stashed behind the grave. He tsked and ruffled through until he found what he wanted. The exposed chains rattled as he opened one side of the furry handcuffs. "These were something of a reward." he explained with a chuckle as he latched them around her wrists tightly. "You see, I was taking out a very well off politician and I just so happened to catch him bound with these to a bed post while some woman, who was not his wife might I add, did...things. I thought you'd appreciate the slight softness of the cuffs rather than my other pair which are quite bloodied. Not that these aren't but you get the picture. So darling what do you think I should do with you now? Hm? I have a whole bag of goodies and I'm sure your children are already having fun so why shouldn't we?" Archer chuckled picked up the bag and put it on his shoulder. He then held Hotaru's shoulder tightly as he circled around to stand in front of her. He tsked and shook his head as he circled back around and stood behind the red head. "So Mommy, what's it going to be? I have plans for you dear and we shouldn't waste time doing nothing."

Hotaru was boiling at his comment about Greg, he didn't even have the RIGHT to say his name!! She flinched at the hand cuffs and the story downright disgusted her. And did he just call those two psychos her KIDS? What the hell was he thinking! She went back to struggling, with(not very much)hope she could possibly be able to escape. "How about you let me go?" she snapped at him coldly. She didn't like this guy, not AT ALL. "You're a fucking coward, ya know that? I don't even get to see your face?" with any luck at all she could at least get to see what he looked like.
Hana looked over at Tekka. "Awh, poor Tekka, you're bleeding." she started to giggle and aimed a good slash or two at the other Tora's legs. Best to keep her from moving first off. "Let's make ya bleed a little more, huh~? I do LOVE red!"

Archer expected something like that to come from the red head. He sighed and walked back in front of her, keeping a firm hand on her waist this time. "You know letting you go is out of the question of course. Now as for me being a coward, I'm hurt." he placed his hand against his heart and mockingly frowned. "I actually have no problems not wearing the mask. I actually just picked it up earlier. You see it was your family which gave me the inspiration for it. Did you know that your father met your mother in a theater. They were playing the main roles for an old play. Your father played the role of the Phantom, who happened to wear a cape and a wonderful mask. I thought it would be fitting, don't you agree darling? I'll be more than willing to take off the mask when we're in a more private place. Don't think I don't know why you really want it off. I'm the unknown figure in this equation." he grinned and patted the side of her face. He twirled a finger around a strand of her hair and grinned to himself. He would have fun with the pyrophobic.
Sudden inspiration struck him and he turned back and glanced at Puff. "Son, will you do me a favor and hold Jackie boy there still and face him this way?" he was going to laugh when Jack would start squirming from what Archer was going to do.
