Chapter 2

"Natsume who is that?"

"This is Teratic. Found near the crime scene, Sir."

"How near?"

"Close enough to be disturbed by our arrival, last night."

"Understood."

"So Sir, I have to see if this is just another runaway or an orphan?"

"Okay Natsume, the system is open."

"Thanx."

"So kid let's get these gloves off. Apoptosis did not accour I see."

*My fault.*

"What do you mean?, Natsume."

"Well Teratic, the look at your hand and mine, do you see any differences?"

"Yes. you have gaps."

"Most to almost all of the people have experience apoptosis. You on the other hand have not."

"Is this good?"

"Not necessary, Teratic. Others can be cruel."

"You mean prejudice, don't you?"

"Yes."

"Oh."

"Well it looks like we will need to get you tested, Teratic after your medical examine."

"Okay, Natsume."

"Now then, I have to run your fingerprints. Can you place your pointer here?"

"Which one?"

"You seem to not understand do you?"

"Never heard that before, Natsume, I'm sorry."

"Don't be."

"Okay this is finger I need, good scan let's get them all on in, right middle, right ring, right pinkie, right thumb, left pointer, left middle, left ring, left pinkie, and finally left thumb. Now then sending it. What's wrong honey?"

"I can't read yet. I'm sorry but I don't think an IQ test would work."

"Yes it well, Most IQ tests outside of school are given orally."

"Oh."

"Dont sweat it."

"Thanx, Natsume."

"Now I'm going to put you down to call the doctor, okay."

"Okay."

Natsume pulls out a cell phone. Speed dials a number. "Can I speak to my dad? Thank you. Tired but I have a very unique situation. I truly need his professional help. Thanx mom. Hi dad, can you and mom make a trip up here to look at a kid? Very irregular. Apoptosis has not accured. Amnesia at the very least. Abandonment at most. I won't know until the search is completed. Up to seventy-hours, then I have to take the kid to the orphanage. Alright see you both then. Thanks."

"My parents will be here in a bit, Teratic. Shall we get food?"

My stomach answer for me. I giggle.

"Let's get you some food. Sergeant Teratic and I are going for breakfast."

"Alright stay in touch."

"This is my car and you get the special seat."

Car starts with the radio blasting.

"Still no new information in the cold blooded murder of local truency officer Jolly Roy Darren. But the biggest question the authorities seems to have is how a set of handcuffs ended up in his car. They are still looking for any eyewitnesses from the area with hightened determination. Stay with us for more ... Humanity, Denise' first band. So what ar... Click.

"I apoligize for that but I forgot that I left it on. I don't think your quite ready for my type of music. So what do you want for breakfast?"

"I don't know Natsume what's good?"

"Well Teratic I would recommend eggs, bacon, suasages, breakfast ham, waffles, pancakes, and toast. But with your small size I don't think you could handle that."

"Is most of that available in one serving?"

Natsume laughing says, "Yes in an omlette."

"Okay. Omlette sounds good." giggling.

"Alright were nearly there. This is a very excellent eatery. I won't ever call it a restaurant. They serve only breakfast foods. Oh before we go remind me, I need to get donuts for everyone."

"Donuts?"

"Yes, donuts," Natsume sighs, "Looks like I have some stuff to teach you before your culture shock. Here we are. Alice's Restaurant."

"So do we meet Alice?" asks Teratic as both leave the car.

"Lock it up, and no. Here you go. Does this place meet your approval?" asks Natsume.

"Yes it does."

"Hello, Nats, what's up, lover?" says a female uniform employee.

"Nothing much," as Natsume leans over and gives the other girl a lip lock kiss. "But I see you lost another bet." Natsume laughs.

"Yes," says the girlfriend, with the name tag Bruce.

"What was it this time?" Natsume questions.

Bill answers in the sweetest voice that could boil a man's blood, turn a straight woman gay, and make wet dreams come true, "A race up north, Timson, third."

"So long as the person you lost to, let you keep what makes me happy, I don't mind the look," says Natsume.

"Thank you, dear. So what can I get you?" Bruce asks.

"I'll need a booth for myself and my companion," Natsume points right at me. "Then well order."

"Oh hello," says Bruce as she bends down. "My name is Bruce." While she gives me a hug.

"My name is Teratic."

"So dear who did lose to?" asks Natsume.

Bruce points at a very poor passing guy. "The 'Rabbit'."

Natsume laughs. "So who was Jessica rooting for?"

"Parker, came in second." As Bruce led us to our booth, "So are we ready to order?"

"A country Omlette for my guest, and my usual."

"Skipped dinner again. Alright, but do you need the donuts before you leave again?" Bill questions.

"Yes, make a double at minimum, Feds are showing up today."

"Gotcha."

"Chocolate milk, and o.j. for the kid. Coffine for myself."

"Ouch, I can't give you that, we can't sell it all."

"Today you can, I need most of it to go," replies Natsume.

"Understood, one pot of Coffine to go," Bruce sighs.

"So you have to tell me who did your cosmetics this morning?"

"Easy the Beauty Emporium, I'll be right back with your goods."

During most of this conversation, I have been looking around. Mom and pop places don't change that much. The clothing designs are more varied than expected but not by much. Uh oh. Troublemakers. Three of them.

"Hello chicks, we get to have some fun. You should not have chosen this blind spot. Now Remove those clothes girls," Says the lead guy, drunkenly.

As Natsume and Bruce are just starting to react to this guy. I respond with the training. Letting my backpack slip down my arms until the far one to the person receives the strap from the backpack. Grabbing my knife in my other hand. I jump high, twisting so that my backpack strikes my opponent hard. Breaking the guys face open as I land. The other two start moving foward as both Bruce and Natsume strike at them. Bruce hits his at the junction between the legs. Natsume rises with her gun out, pointing at her target, calmly pulls the hammer back.

"Hello Marcus you, and your goon squad can have two options I take you in, get you fixed up, and in front of a judge for sentencing, or I let you leave right now," Says Natsume.

"Third option, I get to play!" Manical laughter from Teratic.

"Choose now," from Bruce.
