Hiei and Anaka walked together as far as the edge of the outskirts before going off in their own directions. Hiei went back to what he had claimed as his "house" and Anaka decided to go back to the gas station from before. The first thing she did was flop down on the floor, finally letting her mask slip for a moment. The longer she tried to hide herself the heavier that mask seemed to become. It was becoming more and more difficult to pretend to be her usual, strong self, when all she really wanted to do was to break down and cry. The only thing she moved for was to occasionally get herself some more iced tea from one of the freezers. Eventually she managed to fall asleep, bottle still in hand.<br/><br/>Anaka's sleep was pretty much empty, except for a few nightmares and sparse good dreams that popped up every now and then. Hiei's sleep on the other hand was filled with vivid nightmares (or good dreams, depending on one's level of mental sanity). They were forgotten memories of his past, resurfacing, only to fade again as soon as he woke. Whether good or bad, they were blocked from his conscious mind by years upon years of heavy trauma, and Hiei lived blissfully in ignorance of his own past.<br/><br/>When Hiei woke, he took a few minutes to try and remember the odd dream he'd had. He eventually gave up and went off to find Anaka. As he expected, she was sleeping in the gas station again. The vertically challenged Hunter walked over to the windows and tapped on the glass, causing the girl to wake up. For a moment, she looked as if she were drunk, but Hiei could see that the bottle in her hand was only iced tea.<br/><br/>Anaka sat up groggily after hearing Hiei's knocking, then adrenaline filled her system as she remembered what was going to happen today. The female Hunter quickly pulled her mask back on and went to meet her... well... she went to meet Hiei outside. They walked together to the hideout, seeing Hatsu already waiting.<br/><br/>-----------------------<br/><br/>Hatsu woke up with barely enough time to get to the hide out by seven. By some miracle he made it though, and had only to wait a short time for Hiei and Anaka to show up.<br/><br/>Hatsu waved at the two Hunters he (Yami) would be leading to Vaan. The girl called Anaka gave a slight wave back but the man called Hiei simply stared. When they were close enough, Hatsu spoke up. "So... is everyone ready?"
