Sora was a damn good detective, he was able to find where Shiki's parents were and lose Riku off his trail. He rode his motorcycle to the house and sneaked into her parents home - no one was home, so he sat on the chair and waited...patiently for their return.

"Damnit Sora! Sometimes I wonder why I some hasn't killed you by now with that thick skull of yours!" I say as I scout the rooftops looking for any sign of Sora or more than likely the Ghost Rider.
"Shiki, any ideas?"

Shiki stood, arms crossed over her chest, glaring at nothing in particular but the thought of what Sora was doing. How dare he not tell her about this! It was her business! She sighed, "Only one, Riku...we go visit my parents." The last thing she wanted to do, the very last thing. But she didn't really have a choice now, who knows what Sora was going to do.
(At her parents house)
A woman's laughter followed with the sound of the opening of the front door ten minutes later. "That story never gets old." A man chuckled, "I would hope not, you were there in the first place." The two walked farther into the house, heading into the living room and then stopped, seeing a boy sitting in a chair. The man imediatly stepped in front of his wife, while she stared, "Who are you? And what are you doing in our house?"

Sora sat their at first, not moving, reaching across from the table and picking up what seemed to be a family photo.
"Did you hate her at first? When you found out she was Otherborn? Or did you actually have some parental love that just slowly degraded away into that pile of hatred?" he held the photo in his hand. "Did you fill her head with words that tore her down?"

"Lead the way Shiki."
I said as I conjored up a portal. "Just think of wherever you want to go and it will take us there."

The woman could have easily have been Shiki many years later. Their appearances were very alike; the same long red hair and brown eyes. She glanced to the photo and froze, she had no idea where that had come from, why that... that girlwas there. Surely she had covered it with another picture long ago? She couldn't remember. "What?"
The man placed a hand on his wife's shoulder, eyes narrowed at the stranger, "Explain who you are and what you're talking about." Though he knew, his blue eyes showed that. His dark hair was cut short and glasses were hooked onto the pocket of his shirt.
Shiki sighed again, "Riku, I don't remember where my house is exactly. I never actually saw the outside and if I did it was too long ago for me to ever think of. I can get us close though, I remember the streets."

"That'll work. Just step in I'll be right behind you."

"Me?" Sora turned to him, his eyes began to glow red. "I am nightmare incarnate to people like you."
He threw the photo across the room, the glass shattered and the paper began to burn with Hellfire. Sora stood up, his chain in his right hand.
"I want to know everything about Sin."

Shiki's mother's eyes instantly filled with fear, flashes of memory ran through her head and she gripped her husband's arm, "He promised we'd be done! He said it was over, that we wouldn't have to deal with this anymore!" She was shaking, watching the boy with horror.
Her husband, though shaken, did not cower. It was almost as if he'd seen things like this before and it didn't bother him, or rather it didn't scare him. He said, "Be calm, Laura." Then he spoke to the stranger, "Put the weapon down, boy. Talking doesn't involve that."
Shiki nodded but hesitated a moment before stepping through the portal. Once she reached the other side she looked around and had a bit of a shock at how clear her memory was with what she was seeing, "Yeah...I know where we are." She waited until Riku was through to say, "Come on, I know generally where to go." And then she took off running.

I transformed into my rider form and took off after her.
Soon we arrived at the house and noticed Sora was already talking to her parents.
"Looks like your boyfriend's already here."

Sora looked at the two of them, shaking with anger, he let some of the chain hit the ground but tightened his grip - smoke beginning to rise from his shirt collar. "No you're right, talking doesn't involve it...but interrogation though, whoo, that's a whole other story."
"Now...tell. me. about. Sin." he repeated, the chain beginning to glow cherry red from heat.

All she could do was stare. Not at Sora, at the moment that wasn't even her concern. It was seeing her parents, her mother fearful and her father trying to stand his ground. She wasn't ready for this, she knew it. Shiki waited, watched her mother look over her shoulder and then turn fully to her. "Shiki..." It was spoken with fear and disgust.
Shiki slipped right into her old self, without realizing it. Her expression turned to a scowl, her hands tightened into fists, "...Mother." Her voice was dark, heavy with hate. Then she looked to Sora, the expression not changing, "Knock it off. You want answers, do it some other way. I am not in the mood to have to kick your ass today, Sora."

Sora turned in shock at Shiki coming through the door, "What the HELL are you..."
Then he stopped and noticed a certain someone outside the house, his left fist tightened. "God damnit Riku you piece of..." he shook his head, "Shiki get out of here, they know things that I need answers for!"

"You need answers for? Since when-" She stopped, then shook her head, "I can't believe this..." When she looked back up at him she was glaring hard, "Since when," She continued from before, "do you think you need answers to my life questions? And leave? No, I don't think so. This is my business, from the start. Don't think you can tell me what I can and can't know!"
Laura watched her daughter, flinching at the tone of voice she used, the one she remembered too well. Shiki saw it, rolled her eyes. She didn't even bother adressing her father, who was watching Sora with a dangerous gaze.

Sora was furious, didn't she understand this was for her: that he couldn't protect her if he didn't know what Sin was planning?
"Sin, came to your parents first! Struck a deal with them! If there's anyone who would know a little about his plan, it's them! I can't just sit around and twiddle my thumbs before I lose someone else in my life!"
Sora winced, he let that slip, about his past...about someone else...about her.
