"Rainbow"
Chapter One
A Witch Hunter Robin Fan fiction- By. Jd Wheels
DISCLAIMER: I do not own Witch Hunter Robin nor do I make any money off of my stories.
Robin stretched her thin frame to the ceiling of Raven Flat, her body feeling very tight as she moved. She winced noticeably, as a kink in her shoulders told her she had been sitting at her computer for way too long. She moved that arm a little, and felt the stinging pang of a muscle that needed to move a little more.
The youngest of all the hunters had been at the headquarters since very early in the morning. Amon and herself had gone on a hunt just as the sun had been rising. They had few leads on the witch in question, but somehow Amon had found where the witch was hiding and they spent the morning following up on them. They proved to be correct, and they found themselves face to face with the Witch.
The rest of the hunt was quick work, as three perfectly placed bullets had incapacitated the man, thanks to Amon’s crack shot, and he was whisked away by the NEW SOLOMON GUARD. Robin had not even had to use her powers on this one, and she felt actually glad that she had not.
After that, the STN-J had gotten a call about mysterious death that happened just off of the shipbuilding docks, on the far east side of Tokyo Bay. Amon and Robin were dispatched across the city to investigate, Sakaki was sent to meet them there sometime later.
Once at the scene, the evidence found it was clear that a Witch that had perpetrated the murder. Even Robin knew that, after seeing the body that had been pulled clearly apart, and there was no explanation for it other than for the power of a Witch. She had came to have a sense about it all, after all this time with the organization.
All three worked the scene, and gathered up the tiniest of evidence they could come across. With that drawing a blank, The STN-J were now searching through paper records and on-line data to find out if they had a file to match up a Witch to this. The work was enormous, and because of that, they were no closer to the answer that they were being called out to it as the day waned.
Robin, along with Michael, had been tasked with continuing to try and find any correlation with anything on record, while Amon and Sakaki stayed out and checked contacts out on the streets. That was more than a few hours ago, it was now just past twelve midnight. There was nothing to go on as yet, and it was starting to seem as they would have nothing for a long time.
The other one of the team, Miho, was on her own on a case, somewhere close to the Japanese city of Osaka. The woman was not scheduled to be back until something at the end of the week. Their other co-worker, Dojima has somehow gotten a day off and was not available either.
That left Robin and the mighty computer genius Michael to handle the record search for the case as fast as they could. With no help in sight, they knew that their task was very much harder than ever.
Robin stood up from her chair, hoping that moving herself around a little would loosen up her stiffness.
The young teen moved and stretched like a cat after a long snooze in the sun, but it seemed to help not as much as the girl had wanted. She made herself walk around in a circle in the room, still trying to loosen her body up.
" Hoping you get to go home soon, Robin?" Asked the hacker, seeing the girl moving around.
She looked over at the lad, still rubbing her shoulder. Her movements and everything, was helping even less than she first thought.
" I am hoping so..." She said, yawning uncontrollably. " It has been a long day."
The spiky haired youth chuckled, popping a rather large potato chip into his mouth.
" It sure has been a day... we’ve been at this for what seems to be days on end." He said, already swallowing the salty treat. " Would be nice to have the option of a nap around now..."
The girl looked over at the youth and give a small smile. It did feel like they have been at it for days. She stood rubbing her stiff shoulder then her neck, hoping that it was close to being able to go home, maybe eat something then sleep.
She smiled at the thought of sleep as it sounded like heaven to her. She came back to the reality, and sighed. That was not going to happen for awhile, she told herself with a air of acceptance.
The girl went back to her computer and started once again to search the records for some clue to the mystery that they worked on. She rubbed the sleep out of one eye, having a feeling like she was not going home any time soon.
Minutes passed, ad the phone rang. Michael picked it up and answered, Robin looking over in half interest. She thought it might be Amon phoning in to give a update on what him and Sakaki had found to this point.
Michael hung up the phone and looked over at Robin, a very dumbfounded look was on his face.
" Well... That was an odd call!" He commented, as he looked down to stare at the phone.
Robin saw the look in the older youth’s face, and was immediately curious. She had never seen Michael look so perplexed before.
" What is it?" She asked softly.
" That was Master... you know, from Harry’s"
" Master?" She echoed, now she was curious even more. " Why would he phone so late here?"
The youth brushed back his spiky brown hair as he looked at the young dark garbed girl.
" He said that one of our team is at his restaurant right now, and seemed to be very drunk at this stage."
" Did you say, drunk?" Robin asked.
" He said the word ‘drunk’...." Nodded Michael. " He also stressed that fact all too largely."
" Who?" She Asked, Amon was the first name that popped into her head, but he was out in the field. she thought to herself.
" Miss Dojima." Was his answer.
The name Michael spoke caught the young girl off guard. She had guessed it would have been Amon for he had been more brooding than usual today... and if he had not found anything in his searches, she thought he might have stopped for a drink. Dojima had been the farthest away from her guess as you could have gotten.
" Is she that intoxicated?" She asked, almost clinical like.
Michael laughed and nodded.
" Master said that she was very much drunk, after drinking glass after glass of wine and a few shots too. She is definitely too drunk to drive her home." He explained, with a continuing giggle. " He wanted to see if one of us would get her home in one piece. I cant leave, and the others I could alert." He chuckled some more. " Never thought Dojima would be a souse."
Robin stood up, obviously quite a bit upset by the way she stared down Michael. She saw no humor in it the way the lad was reacting to the situation, and was making it clear to the youth by way of her body’s posture.
" I’ll go get her and then take her home." She said, glaring at the youth.
" How are you going to do that, Robin?" Said the now hard laughing lad, surprised at Robin’s reaction " You could not possible get a very drunk person to sit on your Vespa for very long, and you cant drive a car yet."
She shot back a very icy stare at the lad.
" Then I will just walk over to Harry’s, and make sure she gets into a cab to get home." She said, her voice tight as she stared at the lad. " I have some money to do that for her."
" She is the one that drank until she was totally plastered ..." Started the lad, feeling if Robin’s loyalty was going a tad too far." I would just leave her to find her own cab , and her own way home."
Robin now seemed really angry with the computer lad. Her green eyes were piercing, as she gave a very hard look at the lad.
" Miss Dojima is in need of a little help, Michael." Snapped back the girl with great sourness. She seemed to be protecting the girl at the bar quite strongly " I believe that we should be a little compassionate, and do that for her."
" I can see that you want to help her, but.." Started the lad.
" You have been around Amon too much, your acting so cold now." Venomously pointed out the very irate girl, not giving the lad a chance to finish what he was saying.
Michael looked at the craft girl and stopped his chortling cold. He could see that Robin was finding all of this not in the least bit amusing or helpful, and was really angry with him at this point. The youth swallowed hard, and went to say something, but it caught in his throat as she kept staring at him.
He straitened his glasses and composed himself, he could see that the girl was not all too happy with him at the moment.
" If you want to." He said, no tone in his voice.
Robin tighten her lips, as she turn and grabbed her coat from on the back of her chair. She only give one last very cold glare at the lad, as she headed for the elevator. She turned her head forward and simply walked off with a huff. She was gone as soon as the elevator hissed open.
The computer lad shook his head and returned to his work. Now that Robin was gone off to play good Samaritan, he had to cover for her while she did.
" Great!" He murmured to himself, feeling just a little bit frustrated with the lass. " More work for yours truly."
