The next day Eve went to Barbra-Café which is a known sweeper café where they can find informations about criminals and new bounties, here, works Anette as the bar servant and the owner of this place named after her mother, also a good friend of Eve, despite being twenty years apart, they get along very well. Anette was behind the bar drying a glass with a towel when the bell above the café door rang, announcing a new cosrumer, she looked up, her eyes widned, "Eve!" she said with a concerned tone. The young girl sat on the high stool facing Anette, smiling she answered :"hey..".

"What on earth happened to you? Are you okay?" Anette knew about the crime and knew that Eve was involved.

"Yep im good. Im here to have some answers, y'know about the crime, because the police didn't seem to help."

"Oh dear.. I'll be back, u want the usual?"

"Yes" Eve answered with a forced smile.

Anette got back with a glass full of cold milk, served her friend then said :"I guess the police told you about the gang that kidnapped you, a mafia group, they are known as Scorpion, illegal drug and weapon sellers.".Anette continued as Eve nodded, with a more serious tone now making sure no one in the bar could hear her: "So, this gang managed to get a mysterious drink that can turn a person into either an extremely strong monster that follows orders or it'll kill him. Now the police didn't want to catch them because of this but because of the drugs thing. Im talking about the guy that killed them.." Eve looked up at Anette :"I-i saw him, i don't really remember his face, but he let me free, then disapeared.." Anette looked at Eve both surprised and shocked, then added :"It was the Black Cat." That made Eve freeze, she said quitely: "Chronos is involved then". "I'm surprised he didn't finish you aswell, but thank god.." Said Anette rubbing Eve's shoulder."but why kidnapping me? to try that thing on me or .." Eve asked finally remembering the most important part. Anette answered continuing to clean glasses :"Not sure, probably because they wouldn't risk their employees, i guess." The two women talked a bit, then Eve decided to go home, hugged Anette then left.

Eve decided to rest for another week to let her wounds heal, she still had some money for the week so it was okay. That night she went outside to get some fresh air, it was her way to release stress and to get rest from work, she stood on the building where her apartement was, admiring the beautiful clear sky, starring at the full shining moon a bit, she then put her hands together on her chest and started singing with the angelic voice of hers..

" Uta o

uta o

daichi no uta o

kaze o hidako u hikari abite

Moshi wa matataki

machi wa kirameku

fuwa

fuwa

furiri

nemei komete.."

As she was singing, she heared a little noise so she stopped, looked at her right side, a man sitting on the other roof, looking at her from the corner of his eye. Eve looked at him till he decided to look back, she quickly jumped off her building to where he was, she almost fell but managed to regain her balance and acted like nothing happened.

She came closer to the guy who had a glass bottle of milk to his side, she grabbed it with a big smile "Finders keepers!", and flipped it up drinking the whole thing in a matter of no more that a minute :"Ahhhh cold milk after singing is surely the best!", and laughed a bit, then stopped realising that the guy wasn't so happy with it. "Oh, yours!? hey it's you fault leaving it there!". The guy again, did not answer, he stood up, looking at her, shocked, 'is this the same girl..' he thought noticing the bandages on her arms :"What happened to you?" he decided to ask to know weather she knew him or not."Oh, got into a fight, haha" She answered with an 'obviously lying' tone. "So you're moving around with a gun now?" he added. "You're carrying one too, huh" Eve answered. Train Heartnet knew she would recognise him if she saw the gun design or the tattoo on his chest, luckily enough he was wearing a shirt that covered the XIII symbol, and his gun was in its holster. When Eve knew he wasn't going to answer she added :"Im a sweeper, that's why". "Sounds tough for a girl" he said with a bit of sacrasm. She answered showing off her muscles jokingly :"hmm maybe, but not for me mwahaha." she looked back at his emotionless figure :"What about you? What's that gun for?".He still didn't answer, she added :" you don't talk much don't you.. anyway i don't think your friend is coming so you better go home, its getting cold" then she jumped back to the other roof waving 'bye bye' to him then disappered.

Train sat back, both hands in the back of his head, he closed his eyes 'Im either too lucky or she is too stupid'. He was kind of right, but the reason Eve couldn't remember his face was because her view was dizzy and unclear back then, she only remembers what she felt but not really what she saw.

through out the days Eve went to Anette's trying to get informations on that assasin. "Uhhh nothing that can help, an extremely dangerous cold blooded assasin, chronos's number thirteen time guardian, have some kind of tattoo on his chest, never missed a target blah blah.. But that is not enough." said Eve while preparing her dinner, she ate then decided to chill on the roof again, been a couple of days since the last time, when she first met that weird guy.

She was on the roof, 'yep there he is.' She said in her mind when she spotted the guy from that day, again she jumped towards him, he did nothing but stare at her. "Hey! been a while." she walked a bit scaning the place :"No milk for today?"

"No." he said turning his head away, and laying down eyes closed. "You never told me your name?" she asked sitting next to him, "Train Heartent." he answered still not looking at her. "I'm Eve, Eve Reeman, nice to know you Train-kun~. We are kind of alike!" she said cheerfully. Train sat up and said finally looking at her "It's weird.."

"What?" Eve said, confused.

"What you're wearing."

"Oh you mean my Yukata? hey its rude to say that, at least complilent me even if you don't think so!" she said getting slightly mad at his comment. "No."

"You know, Train. I hope you smile a little more." She said looking at him, he did not answer, she got up and grabbed his face by his cheeks :"YOU BETTER SAY SOMETHING NICE NEXT TIME!". "H-hey.." Train pulled her hands away, rubbed his cheeks, that now looked a bit rosy from the pinching. Then he arranged himself and said with a kind of serious and sad tone :"you said smile? If i don't have something to smile for, why would i." It sounded like a question but not really, they both knew he wasn't waiting for an answer. The goofy smile on Eve's face disapeared after hearing what he said, so she said calmly :"if you're not happy with your life, you have to change it."

"It's not as easy as it sounds."

"You decide.." the she smiled.

"You said were alike? Well i don't see it."

"We both like hanging out on the roofs in night time and we both love milk, thats pretty similar!"

"I need to go." Train said after a couple of moments, standing up and jumping off. Eve watched him go untill he disapeared, Then she went home.
