Tokyo streets

The streets of Tokyo were crowded as usual, but there was a certain group in hiding for some reason near a café were Tobias and Nami they were both sited in one of the tables.

“You guys hear me” Tobias said trough his communicator

“I hear you loud and clear Tobi” Kai's voice came from the communicator

“Same here” Katsumi's voice

“Were ready as soon as you give the signals” Kiddy's voice

“Al right listen up the Luciferhawk is hiding close by so keep your eyes check” Lebia's voice

“Roger” the group said in unison

“Hey what about Hans?” Tobias said puzzle

“STOP SMOKING” Lum Cheng's voice came from the communicator

“I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU SAY” Hansi's voice

The whole group sweat dropped

“You two STOP ARGUING WERE IN THE MIDDLE OF A MISSION” Lebia shouted trough the communicator

Hansi and Lum Cheng were in a back alley and they were still arguing

Hansi grab another cigarette from his box and put it on his mouth but once again Lum Cheng has snatch the cigarette from his mouth making him more upset.

“You are a pain in the ass you know that” Hansi growl

“Well I told you NO SMOKING IN MY PRESSENCE what part of that you don't understand” Lum Cheng said irritated

“Its not just that but you don't want me to smoke at all” said an irritated Hansi

“Well smoking is bad for you the same with drinking” Lum Cheng said

“And I already told you that its MY DAMN LIVER AND MY DAMN LUNGS AND ITS NOT ANY OF YOUR DAMN BUSINESS” Hansi said upset

“How about if I kick you from my apartment….or did you forgot already who are you living with?” Lum Cheng said in a threatening tone

Hansi was gonna say something else until their communicator was heard

“SHUT UP YOU TWO WE FOUND THE LUCIFERHAWK AND ITS HEADDING STRAIGHT AT YOUR LOCATION” Lebia shouted angry from the communicator

“Finally” Hansi mutter he look back at Lum Cheng” don't get in my way you will only slow me down”

Lum Cheng gritted her teeth in anger” hey were supposed to be a team or have you forgot the directors orders”

Hansi ignore her and looked in the distance and saw the Luciferhawk which it looked like a rat he smirk” found it” he ran fast passing Lum Cheng

“HEY WAIT FOR ME” Lum Cheng shouted as she followed him she started running trying to catch the demon hunter but she accidentally trip and fell on the ground” HEY WAIT FOR ME YOU JERK” she shouted to him but Hansi ignore her and continue to run after the Luciferhawk

The Luciferhawk was fast but Hansi was even faster he finally caught up with the rat Luciferhawk in another corner of the street, the Luciferhawk finally decided to fight and charge at him only to be sliced in half by Hansi's sword it turn into dust. Minutes later the rest of the AMP arrived at the scene and once again the women were impressed by the leaders skills well all except fot Lum Cheng who was very upset with Hansi that she look like a volcano ready to erupt.

Lebia reach for her communicator” end simulation program”

All of the sudden the whole scenery of the streets of Tokyo has change completely and now the group was in a large white room.

“Fascinating I never get tired of seeing that” Andi said

Lebia just grin at him

Lum Cheng was going to go berserk on Hansi when suddenly the automatic doors of the virtual reality simulator open and came Mana with a very serious look on her face, she passed the rest of the group and went straight at Hansi and Lum Cheng.

“You two in my office NOW” Mana said in a dead serious tone

Lum Cheng gulp a little while Hansi didn't said anything the two left the simulator room while the rest were a little shock at the event that just happened.

“Did you saw the look in the Chief's face?” Kiddy said shock

“Yeah she's not happy” Katsumi said

“Well those two had it coming I warm them what would happen if they didn't get along” Lebia said

“There in for it for sure” Kiddy said with a smirk

“I hope Hans survives” Kai said worry

The group sighed while leaving the virtual room

In Mana's office

Mana glared at the two AMP officers she wasn't happy with them not one bit and she was going to make sure they get their lesson learn. Lum Cheng was scare right now she knows how Mana can get when she's upset and she didn't wanted to see her when she's angry she could be very mean. Hansi just look calm he didn't care what Mana would tell him he did what he had to.

Mana gave them one hard look before turning towards Hansi” well Hans care to explain me why you abandoned your teammate behind?”

“She was getting in my way” Hansi said flatly

Lum Cheng flinch in anger at his comment but not compare what Mana was about to do

“GET IN YOUR WAY SHE'S YOUR PARTNER” Mana shouted in anger she calm down but her anger remain” it was a direct order from the director that you two were made partners, and that includes no arguing you two are supposed to be a team”

“Chief I told him that but he didn't listen to me” Lum Cheng said

Mana raise an eyebrow” really? Is that so well Hans how can you explain me that?”

Hansi didn't know what to say he remain silent while Lum Cheng had a devilish smirk on her face

(He's gonna get it now he has it coming the jerk)Lum Cheng thought

“If I remember correctly Hans you agree that you will obey anything that the director myself and the second in command order you to do but now you're not agreeing with one of the directors orders which is to rely on your partner and learn to work together teamwork is essential in defeating the Luciferhawk” Mana said

Hansi didn't said anything Mana just sighed” you're dismissed Hans”

Hans was about to leave the office until Mana stop him” wait Hans one more thing?” Mana said” I will eventually report this to the director so you better hope that she doesn't become as upset as myself”

Hansi remain silent he finally left the office, Lum Cheng was chuckling at the fact that Hansi was scolded by the Chief but Mana notice her chuckling” what so funny Lum Cheng?”

Lum Cheng gulp” um….nothing Chief I just remember something funny that's all”(stupid answer) she thought

“Is it funny that I scolded Hans?” Mana said raising her voice a little

Lum Cheng turned pale” um….no that's not it chief” she started sweating a little

“Well this is also your fault too Lum Cheng” Mana said

:”WHAT what do you mean its my fault he was the one that left me behind and doesn't want to work our teamwork” Lum Cheng said

“But you're the one who's provoking him to act this way not letting him smoke is making him act so violent and not being competitive” Mana said

“Well he shouldn't be smoking its bad to smoke” Lum Cheng said annoyed

“Is that why you don't want him to smoke or is there another reason?” Mana said

Lum Cheng blush a little which Mana notice but stood quiet” y….yes I don't want him to smoke because I don't like people that smoke that's all” Lum Cheng said

Mana sighed” Lum Cheng Im sure you two can cooperate with one another isn't he staying in your apartment?”

“Yes but that doesn't mean were getting along its always the same he wakes up he goes to the roof to train he then takes a bath and then he has breakfast with me and that's it he doesn't says a word and it really bores me to have some one who doesn't talk at all” Lum Cheng said

“Well Hans is not the talkative type so you'll have to talk to him about something that he likes” Mana said

“Like what?” Lum Cheng said puzzle

“That is up to you to find out in the mean time you're going to spend some time with him because Im sending you two on patrol for any Luciferhawk” Mana said

Lum Cheng ssweat dropped(great more time with him)” al right chief”

“Good luck” Mana said

“Im gonna need it” Lum Cheng said while sighing she then left the office

Mana smirk” yes you are gonna need it”

Hansi was in the break room with Ralph who was drinking some coffee

“What's wrong with do you have such a sour look on your face?” Ralph said

“Try having a childish brat for a partner” Hansi said dryly

Ralph chuckle” I know what you're talking about she's very stubborn”

“Not just stubborn a pain in the ass I haven't smoke in days” Hansi said irritated

“Why don't you smoke now she's not here” Ralph said

Hansi blink before taking his pack of cigarettes from his trench coat he put the cigarette in his mouth he then took his lighter and before he light his cigarette it was snatch from his mouth by none other than Lum Cheng.

“There you are thought I might find you here” Lum Cheng said

Ralph sweat dropped while Hansi was ready to erupt” you are unbelievable can you let me smoke ONE cigarette?” he said frustrated

Lum Cheng gave a thoughtful look” lets see no”

Hansi growl” are you here to annoy me to death?”

“No unfortunately just came to tell you that the chief has order us to patrol the city for any Luciferhawks” Lum Cheng said

Hansi sweat dropped(great more spending time with her am I being punish?)

“Come on lets go” Lum Cheng said she then notice the pack of cigarettes in his hand” Ill be taking that you wont be needing it”

“WHAT of course I need them give it back” Hansi said getting angry

Lum Cheng ignore him and instead threw the pack of cigarette's into the nearby trash can making Hansi growl in anger” lets go”

Hansi growl(this brat is gonna be the end of me) he then left the break room leaving a sweat dropped Ralph behind

“Well teamwork is not their specialty but they might learn to work together either that or they will end up killing each other” Ralph said with a sweat dropped on his head

In the streets of Tokyo

Hansi and Lum Cheng were in one of the AMP's vehicles they were scouting for any Luciferhawks that might show up but so far they haven't seen one. During the whole ride no one said a word it was a silent trip, however Lum Cheng was getting quite annoyed since she doesn't like been quite for too long so she decided to break the silence.

“No Luciferhawk so far” Lum Cheng said while looking at Hansi who was still quiet

She gave him an annoyed look and decided to say something else” I wodnder if well find a Luciferhawk I mean this whole scouting thing is getting boring” she whined

“You should be focusing on the road ahead” Hansi said not looking at her

Lum Cheng sweat dropped since she was the one driving (well at least he said something I guess its a good start)” its alright I can drive and talk at the same time you know”

“I don't know you can be quite clumsy sometimes” Hansi said while smirking

Lum Cheng gritted her teeth in anger because Hansi has reminded her when she first met him that she trip on the sidewalk” and you're always a rude jerk”

“Brat” Hansi said

“Jerk” Lum Cheng said back she growl to herself (that's it Im not talking to him I don't care how bore I get for being quiet)

They stop talking to each other and the silence came back, after an hour of patrolling the city of Tokyo Lum Cheng was getting impatient and annoyed because one they haven't seen a Luciferhawk and the empty silence was killing her with boredom, she was about to blow from annoyance when suddenly a loud stomach growl was heard in the vehicle.

Lum Cheng blush from embarrassment when she realized it was her stomach that was growling she forgot she hasn't eaten anything in a while, she looked back at Hansi who was looking at her while sweat drooping.

She giggle a little” oops guess Im hungry”

“Lets find a place to eat then” Hansi said

Lum Cheng gave a small smile (well he does care)

“I don't want to hear your stomach growling its annoying” Hansi said flatly

Lum Cheng growl in anger (that……JERK)

After Lum Cheng clam herself down she took another turn in a corner in the street heading for a familiar place. They arrived at a Chinese restaurant which it didn't surprise Hansi that Lum Cheng like Chinese food. They both got off the vehicle and enter the restaurant they both took their seats.

“I thought we were going to a Japanese restaurant?” Hansi said in a sarcastic tone

“Well I like this restaurant so deal with it” Lum Cheng said

“I have no problem with it so are you going to order something?” Hansi said

Lum Cheng took the menu on the table, the waiter came” how may I help you?”

“Yeah I want the miso soup with dumplings please” Lum Cheng said she look at Hansi” aren't you going to order something?”

“No” was Hansi's reply

“That will be all then” Lum Cheng said

“Al right Ill be right back with your order” the waiter said as he took the menus and left the table

“You're not hungry?” Lum Cheng said

“No but you sure do with that stomach growling it was inhuman” Hansi said

“Well excuse me if I forgot to eat” Lum Cheng said sarcastic

“So did you brought money?” Hansi said

Lum Cheng gasp” what…..I…..I thought you were going to pay?”

“No” Hansi said

“Hey you're supposed to pay when you're with a lady buster” Lum Cheng said

“Yes when Im with a lady not a childish brat” Hansi said

Lum Cheng growl” geez I wonder where's the sign in the restaurant where it says no rude jerks allowed?”

“Ouch that hurt” Hansi said sarcastic

“You're unbelievable you know that, look I forgot to bring my money so….how about” Lum Cheng paused

“You want me to pay for your food….well I don't know what do I get in return?” Hansi said

“You will stay in my apartment and it will prevent me from kicking you out which Im looking forward to it” Lum Cheng said

Hansi gave a thoughtful look(hum kicking me out of her apartment doesn't sound too bad but I do need a place to stay and I don't feel like finding one its too difficult anyway)” al right Ill pay for your food”

Lum Cheng sighed in relief” thanks”

The waiter came back with the miso soup” here you go miss” he place the soup next to her

“Thanks” Lum Cheng said as she took her Chinese sticks and started eating

While Lum Cheng was eating Hansi just stood there watching her he chuckle to himself (she really was hungry look at her devouring that soup)

Lum Cheng looked at him” what is there something on my face?”

Hansi sweat dropped” you shouldn't be talking with your mouth full”

“Sorry” Lum Cheng said as she continue eating Hansi just sighed

After a couple of minutes Lum Cheng finish eating her soup” mmm delicious I could really go for another bowl”

“Don't you even think about it I am paying if you have forgotten” Hansi said annoyed

“Yeah yeah I was just joking” Lum Cheng said while waving her hand off

“Can I ask you something?” Hansi said

“Huh sure” Lum Cheng said

“Its about that weapon of yours what is it?” Hansi said curious

“Oh Jesso it's a ancient weapon passed down from my family from generation to generation it belong to my ancestors then my great grandfather then my grandfather then my father and now I have it” Lum Cheng said

“I see it must be very powerful” Hansi said still curious

“It is Jesso it's the ultimate magical weapon the user can cast powerful spells controlling that power is one of the requirements to be the successor of it it also rivals Katsumi's weapon Grosspoliner” Lum Cheng said

Hansi nodded(that weapon really is powerful I can sense its power but I also sense a greater power hidden within the weapon she probably hasn't released its true power yet maybe Ill tell her later)

Lum Cheng gave him a suspicious look” why are you so interested in Jesso all of the sudden?”

“Nothing I was just curious that's all” Hansi said coolly

(Curious yeah right he might be thinking of stealing Jesso from me no way not gonna happen) Lum Cheng thought

Lum Cheng continue to look at Hansi with suspicion and distrust while Hansi was just looking bore, he then sighed while looking at the restaurant.

“We should be getting back to patrol the city where is that waiter anyway?” Hansi said

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Lum Cheng and Hansi along with the rest of the people in the restaurant looked to the source and saw the waiter with others employees running scare.

“What's going on?” Lum Cheng said

“RUN FOR YOUR LIVES THERE'S A MONSTER IN THE KITCHEN” the waiter shouted in fear he then left the restaurant with the rest of the people

“A monster?” Hansi said looking at Lum Cheng

Lum Cheng gasp sensing Jesso(Jesso is reacting that means a Luciferhawk is near)

“That monster must be a Luciferhawk” Hansi said

Lum Cheng nodded as she left the restaurant and went to their vehicle and took Jesso she return tot the restaurant and saw Hansi with his sword in hand.

“Lets go” Hansi said

Lum Cheng nodded and both officers left towards the kitchen, when they enter the kitchen it was pretty quiet and empty since everyone left the place. The ovens and others machines were turn on the people were too scare to eventually turn them off.

“Lets split up” Hansi said

Lum Cheng nodded while gulping a little (why does he have to say that?)

Both split up hoping to have a better chance to find the Luciferhawk, Lum Cheng took a turn in the passage she was holding Jesso too tight she didn't have a clue where the Luciferhawk could be and she was getting a bit anxious and not to mention impatient. She reach the end of the passage and there was nothing but she didn't saw that there was a invisible blur right behind her and she was completely unaware of it.

Lum Cheng saw that Jesso was reacting like crazy(what's going on why is Jesso reacting there's no Luciferhawk here?)

Or so she thought

Hansi was walking in the opposite direction of the kitchen when suddenly

AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH

Hansi gasp (oh no the brat is in trouble)

Hansi run to the location where he heard the scream, when he reach the end of the passage he gasp Lum Cheng was pin to the wall by some unknown force, he prepare his sword and lunge at the invisible creature.

“NO WAIT” Lum Cheng shouted but it was in vain Hansi has charge and hit the unseen force dropping the Chinese sorceress to the ground

Lum Cheng rush to Hansi with an angry look on her face” WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED”

Hansi sweat dropped” so this is the thanks I get for saving your life you really are ungrateful”

“Saving my life you rush in without thinking and hit whatever it was that it was holding me yeah that's saving my life” Lum Cheng said while glaring at him

“Look we don't have time for this the Luciferhawk got away” Hansi said

“How do you know that it was a Luciferhawk that attack me?” Lum Cheng said

“What else is gonna be it seems it has the ability to camouflage itself we have to be careful” Hansi said

“Okay so where did it go?” Lum Cheng said

“It went this way” Hansi said pointing to the direction where the Luciferhawk went

Lum Cheng nodded the two started walking towards the direction which left them outside of the restaurant that's where they saw a sewer manhole open giving them a clue to where the Luciferhawk has gone.

“Lets go” Hansi said while entering the manhole

“Great now were gonna smell like sewer” Lum Cheng said

“Stop whining and lets go” Hansi said

Lum Cheng growl while entering the manhole

The sewers were dark not a single light they walk trough the dark sewer tunnel.

“Its too dark I can't see a thing” Lum Cheng whine again

“I told you to stop whining the sooner we stop this Luciferhawk the sooner we get out” Hansi said(this Luciferhawk is not stupid with his ability he has the advantage in hiding in the sewer since its dark we can't see a thing this is gonna get tough)

“I don't think we can't take this Luciferhawk on maybe we should call the others for back up” Lum Cheng said as she reach her communicator” this is Lum Cheng can anyone hear me Lebia Katsumi anybody come in, ah damn its not working”

“The sewer system must be cutting the communication” Hansi said(maybe the Luciferhawk knew about this another reason why it lure us here perhaps)

“So we are on our own” Lum Cheng said

“So it seems” Hansi said

Lum Cheng decided to stay quiet and continue to walk the sewer along with Hansi, the two reach a tow way tunnel Hansi stop making Lum Cheng look a little nervous.

“You better not say that we should spilt up again” Lum Cheng said

:No its too dangerous to split up there's no communication so we can't contact each other in order to meet up and besides” Hansi paused” you might get pin to a wall again”

A vein pop in Lum Cheng's head” what's that supposed to mean?”

“It means that you might get attack by the Luciferhawk again” Hansi reply coolly

“No that' not what you mean I think you don't think I got what it takes to fight this Luciferhawk am I right?” Lum Cheng said in a threatening tone

Hansi sweat dropped(great looks like the smell from the sewer is rotting her brain)” we don't have time for this”

“Im right you think you can take on the Luciferhawk on your own well guess what buster I will defeat this Luciferhawk and I will do it ON MY OWN FAREWELL” Lum Cheng said as she took the left side of the tunnel

“Brat get back here” Hansi said

Lum Cheng growl while facing him” and my name is LUM CHENG in case you haven't figure out goodbye” with that she left taking the tunnel

Hansi sighed” great so much for teamwork”

He decided to took the same path Lum Cheng took he got a feeling he was going to rescue her again althought there was something inside him that wanted him to saved her no matter what he shook his thoughts as he continue to walk the sewer.

As Hansi went deeper into the tunnel he saw Lum Cheng in a fighting stance

Hansi prepare his sword” its here”

“Quiet” Lum Cheng said in angry tone she was still upset with the demon hunter

Hansi was trying to pinpoint the exact location of the Luciferhawk” its too dark to see hey brat use a fire spell to light the tunnel”

“Im not listening to you like I said Im going to take care of this Luciferhawk myself and my name is Lum Cheng” she said angry

“Look this isn't the time to argue you have to light up the tunnel so we can see and it will give us a clue to where it is” Hansi said getting irritated by Lum Cheng's attitude

Lum Cheng growl” didn't you hear me I said” she was cut off when she was hit and send flying

Hansi acted in instincts and was able to catch her just in time unfortunately since it was dark Hansi couldn't see well so he caught her but she was on top of him they were in a very provocative position. Hansi blush he didn't need to see to where the Chinese sorceress was he could feel her whole body on top of his at that moment some impure thoughts invaded his mind thoughts that he dispelled immediately. He was glad that it was dark so Lum Cheng couldn't see the blush on his cheeks, Lum Cheng got off Hansi quickly it seems she was as embarrassed as he.

“You okay?” Hansi said trying to sound calm

“Y….yeah” Lum Cheng said unsure

Suddenly they heard a loud growl coming from near by

“Bra…I mean Lum Cheng we have to work together to beat this thing so right now we need to see where use your fire” Hansi said

Lum Cheng was surprise that Hansi was able to call her by her name instead of calling her brat she nodded in agreement” al right stand back” she took Jesso and raise high in the air

JESSO FIRE FORMATION

A large wave of fire filled the sewer tunnel and illuminate the tunnel Hansi saw a mysterious blur moving towards them.

(Found you) Hansi thought as he charge at the blur he strike it with his sword hitting the Luciferhawk made a cry of pain.

Suddenly Lum Cheng's fire spell worn out so she immediately cast it again

“Keep the fire coming Lum Cheng” Hansi said

Lum Cheng nodded while Hansi saw the source where he hit the Luciferhawk all of the sudden the Luciferhawk reveal itself it look like a chameleon with green and yellowish skin it had sharp claws and bluish eyes.

“So you are a Luciferhawk after all” Hansi said with a smirk

The Chameleon Luciferhawk charge at Hansi but he was quick and slash the Luciferhawks in half turning it to dust.

Lum Cheng smile” you did it”

Hansi smirk” no we did it”

After a few minutes the tow left the sewer and were back in the city.

“That Luciferhawk wasn't so tough” Lum Cheng said

“Looks like the only way to stop its camouflage was to actually hit it” Hansi said

“I guess” Lum Cheng said she then look at the demon hunter” Ill guess Ill have to apologize to you I mean there was no way I could defeat it on my own but together we were able to do it”

“Teamwork is essential in the AMP I guess” Hansi said

Lum cheng nodded and for a moment their eyes locked for a moment like they were admiring each others eyes for a second.

Lum Cheng then frown” don't get me wrong I still think that you are an impolite rude jerk”

“And I still think you are a childish brat” Hansi retorted

“Good we agree on something” Lum Cheng said

“We should report back to the chief” Hansi said

Lum Cheng nodded and they left back to the AMP vehicle

Later at the directors office

Rally was sited in her desk Mana and the rest of the AMP were in her office she smile at Hansi and Lum Cheng.

“Congratulations it seems you two can work together after all” Rally said

“Wait a minute how did you guys knew we were fighting a Luciferhawk?” Lum Cheng said

“Lebia activate the homing beacon on your communicator” Mana said

“Well I was able to upgrade it thanks to Andy” Lebia said

Andi smile while adjusting his glasses” no need to thank me Lebia its always a pleasure to help you”

Lebia smile at his comment

“I hope you two learn how important teamwork is in the battle” Rally said

“Of course I learn that I will rely on my partner as well as her with me right Lum Cheng?” Hansi said

Lum Cheng eye him suspiciously” al right what do you want you never act this nice”

“I just want to be nice well I should get going” Hansi said as he was about to left the office

“Hey wait” Lum Cheng said just before she stop him a pack of cigarettes fell from Hansi's trench coat pocket

(Damn) Hansi curse

Lum Cheng growl” I knew it you're going to the break room to smoke aren't you

“No” Hansi lied

“LIAR” Lum Cheng shouted

Hansi took the pack of cigarettes and immediately left the office

“COME BACK HERE” Lum Cheng shouted as she went after him the rest of the group sweat dropped

“I guess those two wont change” Kiddy said

“I think is a good start for them to get along” Katsumi said

“Knowing Hans that would be too good to be true” Kai said

The group sighed knowing that it would take time before Hansi and Lum Cheng will get along.
