Frost in the Night Air (Open to everyone)

Good luck, destroying a labratory shouldn`t be hard though, I`ve taken down a whole swat team by myself he played with what was left of his drink.

Ayumu looked at Hellfire suddenly interested "really? That's pretty impressive..." she said with a smirk before her cat walked in and sat on her lap "ah Shou, is the prize okay?" she asked, to which he nodded "I'm sorry I gave you such a hefty task, I promise not to do it again" she said as she stroked her black cat who happily purred.

So... who`s that cat? He (or she, I have no idea) seems special too you, was he a gift from someone special? he looked at the cat, he didn`t like cats, it gave him a look and he gave it a frown.

Ayumu nodded "he's my best friend, he was the only being who'd interact with me at the orphanage, while the other children had their cat, they wouldn't let me play with it...but then one day I woke up and Shou was there, he wouldn't go near any of the other children, he was my only friend, and he looks out for me too" she said as she picked up Shou and held him in her arms.

An orphange? I was in an orphange too when I was young, my mom didn`t want me and my dad didn`t know I existed he fidgeted with the cup a little bit while talking.

Ayumu nodded "both my parents..." she hesitated for a moment, wondering if she should tell Hellfire before she gave a sigh "I can't remember what happened to my parents...all I know is that the scientists took my older brother while he was trying to protect me, thinking he could protect me and my mother...but he couldn't...as a few weeks later they came back for me...after months of torture I managed to escape but I collapsed in the snow...then I woke up I was at an orphanage...then after a few years I was adopted by a travelling family troupe of ballet dancers...they were mean to me, very mean...then about a month ago they just abandoned me at a theater, they got bored of me I suppose..." she said simply, her voice seeming quite cold, but sad at the same time.

Sorry to hear that, I just got kicked out when I was 16, I met a gang, they let me join, I eventually led the gang, they`re like a large, family of a single gender to me, so I guess you were worst off than me he sighed.

Ayumu nodded quietly "I guess so..." before she sighed, staying silent for a few moments "I'm sorry, I'm making you depressed aren't I...I can go if you want me to, I'm sorry if you were planning this to be a date or something...I'm not very good with social skills you see..." she said before she hugged her cat slightly and stared at the table quietly.

It`s fine, sometimes it`s good to know that your not the only one who`s life sucks, sometimes I need reminding that he gave a weary sigh and stood up.

Ayumu nodded and stood up, allowing her cat to jump out of her arms before she chuckled "I guess in the movies this is the part where you'd walk me home...except I don't really have a home...its just the roof part of an abandoned werehouse with a few rags for sleeping..." she said before she looked out into the night from the cafe and have a sigh.

I`d offer to let you stay at my home but... it`s not much better than yours he held out his hand, to see if she trusted him.

Ayumu looked to Hellfire's hand then hesitantly took it before she smiled and realized something "I don't even know your name..." she pointed out.

My enemies call me Hellfire, my friends call me Skye, Skye flame he walked outside and was about to light himself on fire but turned to Ayumu Well that`s embarrassing, I don`t know your name either he looked at her expectingly, if she told him her name he would smile and say Let`s do this again some-time he then lit himself on fire and flew off.

"If we're going by codenames then call me Ice Neko, if not then by name is Ayumu Ishimaru, you can call me Ayumu, Yumi-chan or Maru-chan if you want, I don't really mind" she said with a gentle smile to Hellfire.

Maru-chan it is!! Hellfire yelled at her from a far.

Ayumu chuckled as she watched Hellfire go before she then walked towards where she was currently staying "this was actually a nice night out wasn't it Shou" she said with a smile as her cat just purred next to her.

The next day Ayumu sold the diamond on the black market, having worn an armor of ice to disguise her as well as a mask of ice that hid her face, the money gained from selling the diamond allowed her to gain enough money to buy a reasonable apartment as well as have some money for basic food and other supplies too, things seemed to be looking up for her.
