For this story shall never be abandoned!

DISCLAIMER: Obviously I don't own any of the characters or themes of Azumanga Daioh, if I did, i'd be too busy rolling around in my money to write this.

The Pervert, The Officer, The Hero Part 14

"Oh you have got to be kidding me..." Kimura said rather loudly as the other 36 men in the room moved about rather frantically hoping that this was a joke. "Well...I knew he'd do something like this..." Takejiro said to Kimura as he tried to calm the anxious man down. "What the hell do you mean you knew??" Kimura said, louder than before, attracting the worried looks of the men around him. "You know how long I've been here? Well he's done about 5 things like this before, suddenly sprung suicide missions on all of us, it's like a little natural selection process for the organisation".

Then it suddenly hit Kimura, "This is fucking suicide!! I'm either going to get killed, caught and tried for attempted Terrorism, or be discovered and killed by Fujishima's men!" Kimura thought grimly. Then, the image of Tomo came into his head "I've got to remember why I'm hear in the first place...her happiness rests on my shoulders, and I'm not about to drop out of this! For Tomo-chan, I will get through this!" Kimura ordered himself and a small grin adorned his face.

Then an elbow nudged him rather hard in his side "I'd stop if I were you people might think you're a maniac" Said Takejiro as he snapped the grin off of Kimura's face. "Well I could either mope and be terrified like the rest of them, or just grin, and bear it all" He said, bringing back the grin to his face. "...You have a point" Takejiro said as he grinned in unison with Kimura.

"Man this is gonna be so much fun!!" Came the ever creepy voice of Akita Tonomibe as he seeming popped into existence in between the two grinners. "Oh yeah this is gonna be fun alright..." Kimura said quietly, just so Tonomibe and Takejiro could hear him. "I've been through 4 of these before you know!" Tonomibe said with pride in his voice. "You just gotta keep your head and think before you act, that's what I've done, and it's worked every time!" Tonomibe told the two men next to him with a rather serious voice.

"Advice taken" Kimura replied as he mentally prepared himself "You two have done this kind of thing before, so you guys know what to expect...I'm pretty clueless...so I'm sticking close to you two!" Kimura declared with another grin on his face as Tonomibe and Takejiro glanced at each other uneasily. "Well...just as long as you don't get in our way" Takejiro said with a smile as he roughly slapped Kimura on the back and Tonomibe just kept his inane smile.

"Alright time to go! Let's load into the vans people!" The bald Fumio ordered the rest of the still scared men down into the garage and into the 6 riot-control like armoured vans. Each van contained a full suit of body armour along with balaclavas, with the back of the vans full of rather specialised weapons. MP5s were stocked in each of the vans, specifically the MP5SD3 variant, as it has a silencer, so any shots fired off in the offices wont alert the whole security force.

"Well...lets go!" Kimura said as he, Takejiro, Tonomibe, and 5 other men loaded into the back of the Van and heard the engines roar to life as they left the garage behind and approached the possible end of their lives.

SCENE CHANGE

Feeling heavier and bulkier now thanks to the body armour, Kimura pulled the Balaclava down over his head and got used to the field of vision difference rather quickly.

The vans had all split up and gone in different directions as not to cause a scene as they entered Maranouichi. They were all still however headed for the same place, the Mizuho corporate bank head office complex. The Mizuho financial group, the primary stockholder in the bank, had offices in this building. The President of the group, Terunobu Maeda had an office at the very top of the complex, the documents that they were targeting were located in that office.

"Okay we're safely in Maranouichi! We'll be arriving at the office complex in about two minutes, so get ready to move!" The driver of the van shouted back to the men as the glare of street lights flashed up and down the small windows as they got closer and closer to their target.

Kimura was shaking, literally he was shaking, he was scared out of his head, but he knew that Tonomibe had said to keep his head, and he'd survived these tests four times, so he obviously knew what he was on about.

Then, the light coming through the small windows in the van disappeared, and the distinct echo of traveling through a tunnel could be heard outside of the van, they were mere moments away from arriving at their target. Kimura could feel his heart beat, vibrating across his entire body, until he managed to slow it down, to an almost calm pace, this was all he could do to ready himself for the assault.

"Okay listen up!" Fumio Isoda ordered the men in the van as he walked to the front of the seating area and began to address and brief them before they went on into the offices. "I'm sure you all remember what we're after, a brown folder, located in the third drawer on the left hand side of President Maeda's desk. I know the majority of you are worried about this, but with that armour and those MP5s, you have the upper hand against the security force that's here at the moment, so move fast, get the job done, and get out before any backup gets here, do that, and we'll be celebrating tonight!" Isoda literally screamed at the rather bewildered men as Isoda walked back up to his place next to the driver in the front of the van.

"Great, I wonder what'll happen if the so-called backup does get here..." Kimura anxiously thought as the Van suddenly screeched to a stop and the back door of the van was opened by the driver, who also got out along with Isoda. "Arm yourselves quickly, and lets go!" Isoda ordered again as the men from the van picked up their MP5s and loaded them. Now feeling prepared for a fight, Kimura felt some sort of weird confidence about this mission for some reason now, whether it was Tonomibe's positive attitude, Takejiro's promise of information, or Isoda's commander like presence, he didn't know, but it made him all the more likely to succeed and survive here.

"Okay, remember, stick with me and Akita and we're gonna get through this ok my friend" Takejiro whispered in Kimura's ear as Tonomibe walked beside him on the opposite side of Kimura, feeling relieved with these two by his side.

Scene Change

The sound of many sirens blared in the windows from the outside of the office building as Kimura, Takejiro and Tonomibe sprinted their way towards Terunobu Maeda's office door. Shoulder barging the door through, Kimura let the other two in and shut the door rather quickly, and with the help of Takejiro and Tonomibe, managed to barricade the door with two rather heavy bookcases and a couch.

"Okay this should keep 'em out for a while, but we gotta get that document and find a way outta here, and quick!" Kimura ordered as they started searching through the various desks dotted about the office, no desk being indicated as Maeda's main desk made it rather annoying and difficult to find the right one.

"I think...I think this is the desk!!" Kimura yelled as he saw a picture of Maeda's family on the desk, a clear sign that this was the desk that he used in his daily work. Running behind the desk and looking right at the third drawer on the left hand side, he let out a round into the lock and pulled the drawer open with a good amount of force, pulling the drawer out of the desk completely.

Turning it upside down, Kimura emptied it and frantically rummaged through the pile of papers and folders on the floor as Takejiro and Tonomibe knelt beside him and helped look. "Here it is..!" Tonomibe shouted as he held a brown folder in his hand, the only brown folder in the drawer, so it had to be the one.

"Let's check first, to make sure we've got the right one!" Takejiro suggested and Kimura received the folder off of Tonomibe and placed his hand inside, feeling a single sheet of paper. Curious as to why there was so little inside, he removed the piece of paper and looked at it, and his eyes went wide.

"That fucking bastard!!" Kimura angrily said as he showed the paper to the other two, written on the paper in rather large letters was "Well...Congratulations boys, you'll probably all be dead anyway, so it's pointless even writing this". Takejiro showed no emotion as Tonomibe grabbed the paper and ripped it right in half, an expression of anger on his face.

"The bastard would do something like this...it's just like him..." Takejiro said quietly as he stood up and looked straight at Kimura and Tonomibe "We need to get out of here now!" Then a loud banging came from the door as gunfire was heard inside and outside of the building, which meant that reinforcements for security had arrived.

"Okay we need to think quickly!" Takejiro yelled as they started searching the room for an exit point. "Here's a mad idea..." Kimura said as he pulled out a massive pile of thick cable from Maeda's Cleaner's room. Before either of them could ask why Kimura had that he picked up a chair and threw it through the window, shattering it and plummeting to the ground below.

"You see the building supports in here?" Kimura asked, pointing to the stone columns in the room "Tie this end around that tight" Kimura told Tonomibe as he handed one end of the cable to him and Kimura walked over to the edge where the shattered window was.

After Tonomibe confirmed a tight hold on the column, Kimura threw the rest of the cable over the side of the building, making a sort of rope down the side of the building. "You are crazy!!" Takejiro shouted as he let out a loud laugh at the sheer madness of Kimura's escape plan "Tonomibe you go first!" Kimura ordered as Takejiro agreed.

Tonomibe put on his pair of the thick gloves they all had, to stop his hand pretty much being ripped apart by the cable. He then took a deep breath and jumped off of the side holding the cable, doing a sort of rappelling motion down the side of the building under the light of the moon, as it was now rather late.

"You go next!" Takejiro shouted at Kimura "No...you go first!" Kimura told Takejiro as the two silently stared at each other for a second. "Okay..thank you" Kimura gave in as he went to begin his descent. As he reached the edge though, a scream came out from behind him.

Feeling lucky, the security forces outside the office let out a few pot shots through the door, and two hit Takejiro in his leg and his back, and he was now slumped down on the ground, moaning in agonising pain from the blood loss and the tissue damage the bullets had caused.

"SHIT! FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK!!" Takejiro screamed as he didn't have any feeling in his legs. He was then flipped over by Kimura who desperately tried to figure out what to do, to no avail however, as Kimura was no doctor, and had no idea what had happened other than him getting shot.

"Taikan...listen you gotta get out of here...reach into my left pocket..." Takejiro said as Kimura obeyed and felt a CD in his left pocket. "That...that should tell you all you need to know about Akashi Takino, and what happened to him...now go my friend.." Takejiro said as he sighed "No...listen...I've been lying to you..." Kimura admitted "My name...what i do...everything has been a lie...my name is Yuudai Kimura, I'm an employee of the Tokyo central police force, and the only reason I'm here is because a girl extremely special to me lost her father Akashi, so I infiltrated to find him, Thank you for helping me do that..." Kimura told Takejiro rather sadly.

"I'm...well I'm surprised Taikan...Yuudai. Thank you for coming clean with me...and I'm sorry that I can't help you any further than this...but I hope you make Akashi's daughter happy, i'm rooting for you..." Takejiro said as he managed a smile "Now go..please...go!" Takejiro yelled as he ran out of breath and closed his eyes, fading off into the eternal slumber known as death.

Kimura shed a tear for the man he now considered a great friend, who he would never forget. Honouring Takejiro's last order, Kimura adorned his gloves and rappelled down the side of the building, to the extremely anxious Tonomibe.

"Why'd you take so long? And where's Takejiro?" Tonomibe asked as Kimura beckoned for him to follow him towards the garage "He's...he died up there Akita...they shot through the door and they got him...we wont forget him..." Kimura told Tonomibe as they made their way to the garage, thought of Happiness, and revenge running through Kimura's mind.
