Seal of Darkness
CHP6: No Answers

"Wake up, please wake up!"
His eyes slowly opened, but he had no clue what went on, or sure of his surroundings. With each second that passed, his vision cleared and leaning down beside him from the left was Kurumu and on the other side Mizore. She sucked on a lollipop as she'd done most the time. More so than anything, pain and a splitting headache were what he noticed right away. He sat up with the help of his colleagues, but with a hand situated over the area of his forehead.
"Tsukune, how do you feel?" Kurumu questioned, taking his arm into her hands.
"I...I've seen better days, but I'll live. Moka-san! What happened to Moka-san?!" Tsukune shouted, with memory of everything coming back in a flash.
"What do you mean? You and Ruby-san are the only ones here, and we've still been unable to wake her," Mizore informed.
"Damn it, then they must have taken her!"
"Wait, Moka was here," Yukari appeared from his left side. "We were all under the impression she had not yet showed, when we found you and Ruby-san unconscious. And what do you mean by they, what happened here?"
A couple feet away, Gin managed to wake Ruby, helping her up. Mizore and Kurumu did the same with Tsukune, pulling up a chair in which he sat. He leaned forward running a hand over his face, in complete dismay. With all his experience and of all places on what was like home turf, failed to protect one of his friends. With clinched fists, he punched at the chair's arm rest shattering it completely. It took Ruby several moments to recollect herself; her memory of what happened cloudy at best.
"Kiria...he and Fairy Tale are responsible for this! It was Moka-san they were after, but I don't know why, and haven't the slightest clue where their hideout is. No matter what, we must get her back!"
Everyone was shocked by the reveal and at lost for words.
"It's...it's almost like déjà vu all over again," Kurumu spoke, with her head lowered.
"Perhaps, but we've grown a lot stronger since our last encounter. Whatever they've got planned won't succeed, we'll get Moka back no matter what," Mizore added.
The information was news to Ruby, given she was knocked out cold right away. It was upsetting and even worse seeing as it completely destroyed their reunion party. The idea of that made the witch sick to her stomach, clinched fists and all. Kiria and all of Fairy Tale would regret their latest actions and would see to it personally.
"So they didn't say why they wanted her? We can only hope she isn't in any immediate danger, but even so, we need to work fast and figure where they've taken her. We still have information on their past couple hideouts, perhaps if we're lucky might lurk in one of them," Gin emphasized.
"It's a start, but let's not get our hopes up," Kurumu said looking to Tsukune afterward. "It's your call...what should we do?"
He didn't answer right away, which was understandable. There was a lot that went into play; nothing more however than his status as headmaster of Yokai academy. He had an obligation to look things over and protect those attending. Tsukune stood from the chair letting out a sigh, pacing back and forth for over a minute.
"I'll need some time to think," He headed toward the nearest exit. "Meet in my office first thing in the morning."
All watched as he exited without a word. The distress was evident in his overall tone and body posture. Much as they wanted to jump into action, Tsukune made the right move. A plan was needed, especially when dealing with someone like Kiria Yoshii. Working as a group, they cleaned the area setting tables and other items back where they'd been originally.

The rain died down and she was thankful, but the damage had already been done. Running a hand over the brick wall, the silver haired vampire moved along looking out in front of her. The purity of water certainly didn't agree with her system, but never before had she been so drained from it. Deep down felt the enemy's electrical weapons played a role in her current predicament. To that point, still had no idea where she was, aside from knowing she was in the human world. Slowly moving along, Moka's eyes fell over something bright, occupying a portion of the sky.
"What in the," she looked it over and the more she thought about it. "A bat?"
The signal or whatever it was peered over the city, putting her whereabouts even further in question. What could it mean? Was there a festival of some sort taking place? Whatever the answer, it wasn't of importance. The vampire had problems of her own that needed resolving, the first figuring where she was. Something that lingered in the back of her mind was what the henchman had said. She had yet to figure her surrounding but wherever she was, was vital to Kiria and company. Moka took another couple steps out into the open before stopping at the sound of whistling.
Slowly looking over her shoulder passed a black vehicle; the windows rolling down.
"Hey sweet stuff, whatcha doing in this part of town, dis time of night?"
She paid them no attention, walking the opposite direction, but of course they followed. The vehicle pulled up, blocking her path just as she looked to cross the street. Two stepped out of the vehicle; one from the backseat and another from the front passenger side.
"Damn, she a fine piece," one said.
"Holy hell, no kidding," the other replied.
They circled Moka looking her up and down. The blood red eyes and silver hair were a bit peculiar, but in Gotham City there was a lot of that. She was fully on guard but didn't make a move, waiting to see what they'd do, if anything.
"She just about perfect. Got a pretty face, body and of course dat ass!"
He circled around slapping and squeezing at her butt. Moka slightly bit at her tongue, taken off guard by his actions.
"Take your filthy hands off me!" she hissed.
"Or what?" he grinned.
Without warning, she spun taking hold of his wrist and twisting it. The individual dropped to his knees yelling in agonizing pain. The other opposite of them uncovered a small hand gun. Moka noticed right away and with her extraordinary reflexes/speed, disarmed him of his weapon. He attempted to grab hold of the vampire, but she lifted him over her shoulder and slammed him into a nearby brick wall. The other grasped at his injured wrist pulling out a pocket knife with his opposite hand. Easily disarming him of the weapon, she head butted and dropped him to the ground. The driver of the vehicle stepped out.
"Enough of this! Forget that bitch, we're on a time budget. Cobblepot is going to kill us if we aren't at the drop point in exactly thirty minutes!"
Shattered pride and all, both backed away from Moka. Each reentered the car with the driver taking off.
"Humans are disgusting, especially men!" Moka murmured.
She almost immediately regretted the comment. Tsukune was living proof humans weren't all bad, even though he was very much a vampire now. That however wasn't the case, the first they met in the Yokai realm attending the academy. Aside from that, she now knew where she was. The name Gotham however didn't ring bells, but the thugs' primary language was English. That in mind, she was almost certain she was nowhere near Japan. Whatever the case, the vampire was tired, weak and wanted to call it a night.
She was far too drained to think straight. During the past five years, she helped with Tsukune's training whenever she could. Her father handled most the workload and when away from the Yokai realm, she worked part time at a clothing joint. She used it as a way to occupy time and incorporate herself into the human world. Money wasn't an issue. Issa had accumulated much over his time of living, providing his daughter with a trust fund. Luckily, ahead was a motel and at that point she wasn't picky. Before making a move, reached into her pocket feeling around.
"Oh thank goodness."
Moka breathed a sigh of relief confirming her wallet and earthly identification was present. Checking into the motel across the street, she received dozens of strange looks. Her appearance wasn't normal and she was very attractive, so didn't make a big deal of it. She took to the elevator, exiting onto the 3rd floor. Somewhat wobbly, she slowly walked down the hall using a key card to enter. There wasn't a whole lot of space, but it was enough for her. Taking a couple steps, the vampire kicked off her boots. She then stripped down removing her wet clothing, except her black bra and panties. Moka's cell was low on charge but had just enough juice for one call.
Since working a job in the human world and overall spending more time in it, a personal cell made life so much easier. She called and left a message on Tsukune's phone, explaining the situation and not to worry about her. She left out several details, feeling it was for the better. There was no telling when he'd receive the message, however. Even if he did carry his cell, in the Yokai realm he wouldn't get the message until returning to the human world. She left out info regarding her whereabouts. Tsukune was Yokai academy's headmaster and was needed there. Whatever Kiria and Fairy Tale planned, she would have to confront them alone.
If Tsukune and everyone knew of her location, they'd come running and that's exactly what she didn't want. For the time being, she needed to figure what Kiria's henchman meant by a seal being broken. None of it made sense, and didn't understand why they were after her. Taking a deep breath, Moka cleared her mind and fell back over the bed. What she needed was a good night's rest and to get back at it the following morning. She stared at the ceiling before her eyes eventually closed, falling into deep sleep.
The night came and passed and he was no closer to solving the mysterious events surrounding the anonymous woman. It was already a little after eleven AM, finally waking and stretching. He wasn't accustomed to sleeping in so late, but was good given the late hours he had put in recently. Not delaying, he rose from the sheets before taking a quick shower and heading down to the main living room.
"Good morning Master Wayne, I take it you slept well?"
Bruce gazed over his left shoulder as his butler approached, but was so much more than that. Without him he wouldn't have survived long as he did. Alfred's efforts included Intel, map outs, occasional research and patching him up when unable to do it himself.
"Good morning to you as well, Alfred," Bruce replied.
"Are you hungry sir, I've prepared a little something for you?"
"That's fine," Bruce walked across the room pressing down on the back of an eagle statue. A nearby wall slid open, in which he stepped through. "Just bring it into the cave."
In a single push the wall slid shut and the elevator took him down. Some of the lights clicked on, motion censored and he flipped on the remaining lights manually. Bruce took to the nearby steps and up to the computer. He immediately looked some of the footage over from the previous night, hopeful for something he might have missed. Within the next couple minutes Alfred appeared behind him, setting a tray of food atop the countertop beside him.
"Eat before it gets cold, sir," Alfred looked up at the screen. "Anything new?"
"Nothing, and it's highly unlikely I'll find something I haven't already seen. But I can't sit around and possibly let this woman skip town or attack again. I'll check back with the commissioner later this evening and see if there's any new developments from his end. Perhaps Ced Hensz has finally decided to talk, but I won't hold my breath. Still it bothers me..."
"What sir?" Alfred questioned.
"All my findings to this point. Let's just say this woman is the killer. The more I think about it, seems as though Luke might have been her target from the very beginning. She got a room across the street from the grand opening. Then a couple minutes later enters the Splenda only to get in without payment and identification, just as she'd done with the hotel. And judging by the footage, she singled Luke out."
"Are you suggesting they knew one another?"
"It's possible."
Bruce let the footage run, opening a separate window. There was nothing better than having the aid of Wayne Industry's top of the line tech, including computer software/systems. He initiated a background check on Luke Rodger Vincent.
"A full scale background check?"
"Yes. I've only met with Luke on a handful of occasions, mostly fundraisers and things of that nature. Never really sat down and talked in depth. In the past couple years as you know, he was in and out of jail, but was really starting to turn things around."
Taking his eyes off the screen for a moment, he looked to the tray of food. Bruce ate two of the dinner rolls, a couple fruits and some of the eggs. He gazed back at the screen, taking a sip of the orange juice. While waiting, he finished what remained on the tray. If there was one thing he knew about Alfred, it was he didn't like to see food go to waste. Alfred took the tray in hand, heading toward the staircase.
"I'll be up in the manor if you need me for any reason, sir," Alfred informed.
Bruce nodded, never taking his eyes off screen.
Miles away, Moka entered one of the public libraries. Purchasing a phone charger and some additional clothing from a nearby shopping center, she had the vibe might be in town for a little while. Even if she could return to the Yokai realm, she wouldn't. For some unknown reason Kiria needed her, and if around her friends, she would put them in jeopardy. At some point might need their assistance, but until she figured what in the world was going on the vampire wanted to stay as far away from them as possible. Given Gotham appeared to be where it would all go down, it seemed like her best chance of finding answers. She fully expected Kiria and his gang of followers would resurface sooner rather than later.
It had been a busy morning for the vampire, going back and forth between the motel and other locations. Finding an unoccupied computer on the 2nd level, she took a seat getting right to work. In a quick search, found the answer to the question that lingered in the back of her mind. Gotham City's location in comparison to Japan was a secret no more.
"Hhhmm I'm in the United States..." she murmured.
Moka didn't stop there however, deciding to research the city to get a better understanding of her surroundings. Some of the results were quite interesting. Finishing within the hour, she exited out checking her cell for any potential missed calls, but nothing. It was only a matter of time Tsukune and the others might come searching for her. She made the decision to remain in Gotham, even if it meant being alone.
"Guess I better look for a part time job if this is going to work," she rolled her eyes in annoyance.
The vampire had no clue how long she might be in town, so felt it was her best option. If and when she had the time, considered going sightseeing. The idea of going about the mission alone was somewhat depressing and deep down hoped Tsukune and the others might find and join her. Even so, it wasn't a decision she'd make.
Later that evening, Bruce Wayne sat inside one of the city's more cherished restaurants. His investigation led to nothing but dead ends. Researching Luke in depth turned up nothing useful. He could only hope James Gordon and GCPD learned something from Ced or the crime scene photos. Since the homicide, he downloaded a full map 3D render of the hotel across from the Classic Splenda. He studied the building's layout in depth, but no portion more than the area of room 517. A little over an hour inside the cave was spent primarily on studying the layout and how the subject could have possibly escaped.
The only possible exits out of the room were the door, or window. Unlike rooms on the hotel's opposite side, the room had no balcony. That however didn't matter and didn't change the fact any normal individual wouldn't survive the fall. And then there's the fact someone would have seen her, especially with the way the streets were packed. Was the hall's security footage altered just enough for her to make an escape, and if so who was the accomplice? And on the side, she managed to not only check into the hotel without payment but did the same entering the Splenda's ball room. And one thing that remained constant, none recalled meeting the mystery woman. Bruce began to wonder if he might even be dealing with a Meta.
"Glad you were able to make it," Alliya sat across from him. "Sorry I'm running late, had some things come up. How've you been coping? Have you heard anything new?"
The despair was clear in her eyes.
"Nothing. We'll all have to wait and see when press and police announce more information," Bruce replied.
"I've heard rumors he was lured and shot by some gang! Do you think maybe it has...has something to do with his past?"
Bruce reached across the table taking her hands into his own.
"Enough about all that, let's use this time to free our minds of all the bad. When we spoke over the phone, said this would be your first time dining in here. I'll be the first to say they serve some of the best dishes in town."
There was something about Bruce that took the tension out of a situation. It was one of her favorite qualities about him.

They were a little behind schedule but nothing major. Moka's escape was only a small setback and would have her in their possession soon enough. Down a dark hall, torches were plastered over the walls and the pink haired vampire passed through. She was acquainted by two guards on either side. Upon turning the corner, they were met by Kiria and three others.
"And just where do you think you're going?"
"The human world," she answered blandly.
"Oh yeah, by who's authority?!" Kiria questioned, with crossed arms.
"Master insisted I station in our separate base within the human world."
"Huh, probably to keep an eye on Aensland I suppose," Kiria scratched at his chin. "Fine, go ahead. But remember, don't bring attention to yourself. In other words, if you leave the base for any reason keep a low profile," he glared.
Akasha headed to the transportation dock followed by her escorts.
