The moon was out, which meant Asa was as well. It was a crisp cold night and the walls of the abandoned building her gang stayed in didn't help. Winter was not Asa's favorite season, but she liked it more than summer. Being sweaty was awful. Her pink hair blew in the wind, and the stars reflected off her blue eyes. Asa was beautiful and she knew it as well. And although she had enemies, most couldn't help but be attracted to her. "Hey boss, what are we doing tonight?" Asa was snapped out of her thoughts by one of the gang members. "I figured we could all just hang out tonight. It's nice out and the other gang seems to not be active right now." She sat at the edge of the top floor, her hood over head to keep her ears warm. Just because the others weren't out right now, didn't mean they wouldn't be later. So she kept her eyes on the ground waiting and watching.

From the bedroom window of his small house, Kira stared up at the moon. In exactly two minutes his family would be going to bed, and that is when he would take the chance to run. He quietly got himself changed into his black attire, sliding his bow onto the hook on his back. Three, two, one. Lights out! He slid open the window and clambered onto the tree branch outside. From there he made his way down, and ran through the shadows of the streets to his gang's meeting place.

Ara had come from her job over to the gang hide out. She was still covered in a layer of grease and oil from working with cars and such almost the entire afternoon. Her parents knew she wouldn't be back until a lot later into the night and they had no problems understanding Arashi could take care of herself. She was watching the entrance at the moment making sure no one got near that wasn't supposed to.

Are they really not coming out tonight? Asa knew not to underestimate the Blue moon gang, but they shouldn't underestimate her group either. Most nights they wouldn't bother each other, but sometimes a fight would come out of no where. "Well, seems clear tonight." She decided to join the other and just have fun drinking tonight. Asa loved the nights she could just hang out and not worry. Although tomorrow she had to go to a party with her parents. She hated them. Behind her back her parents have been talking about an arranged marriage, but there was no way in hell she was going to go through with that. She chugged down a bottle of beer without a care in the world.

Someone stood, watching the entrance to the hide out. He could see her as clear as day.
Ara…
Ara had been a part of his gang for quite some time, though he never really knew how she joined. Usually people only joined the Blue Moon gang if they were chosen by Kira, however, the boy had no recollection of choosing Ara. on the other hand, he was no way inclined to kick her out. She was a useful, loyal asset to his group, which was more than could be said for some of the members that were actually chosen.
All I know is that she does this for her family, but why my gang, why not the Arc Angels?
As he approached the entrance, he picked up a small stone from the ground and launched it at the doorway. The stone broke into pieces as it came into contact with hidden laser beams, which revealed themselves after coming into contact with said stone. They were a little something that his resident computer whiz managed to build and install into the hide out. However, they could only be turned on and off from inside the building.
Guess I'll just have to do this the hard way… Kira thought with a sigh. He sauntered up to the lasers with a tired, defeated look on his face. "Araaaaaaaaaa? Please turn them off." he pouted for effect.

Ara saw Kira walking up to the entrance, and she had never hid her intentions of joining, but kept the reasons why close to heart. He, of course, checked for the lasers before finding them on. She had left them on for the people stupid enough to try and just walk in. Ara had a light smirk deciding to have a little fun with the leader before calling back, "Got a password for me?"

Mre was sitting in the park, escaping his loud family for a bit to do some studying. He knew it was only the start of this year, but he wanted to be prepared for college exams he would have to start taking. It was a pretty quiet night in the park, a few teens sitting on the swings and smoking, but that was about it people wise. However, this time was the best time to observe any of the animals that came out.

They hadn't used passwords since the gang first began! Kira let out a long groan, kicking at the dirt as he paced around, trying to think of what the password would be. Birthday would be too predictable, so would a colour or animal. He had a feeling he knew what the password was, but saying it would bring him some amount of shame.
I thought she had grown out of teasing me, just because I can't argue with her doesn't mean she has power over me. Well, in some way it did.
He came to a halt and stared above the lasers. If I climb onto the roof behind me I can fire an arrow at the button, no, that wouldn't work, I would break the machine.
Reluctantly he mumbled his answer. "Ara is the best girl in the world?"

Ara heard his answer, and moved her hand to almost flip the switch. She would have taken whatever he said, but saying that just was the icing on top of the cake. There was no password at the moment, just Arashi being a little butt. She didn't let her smirk grow before she shouted back, "What was that? I couldn't hear you."
