(Thanks partner : P)

 

Nanao finally finished with the documents.He sighed,smiling faintly.Thrown a last look to the folders and grabbed them.The young male just hoped that his chief would be in his office.He saw that one of his co-workers was still in the building and smiled happily.

 

"Oi,Akira-kun! Where is the chief?" Nanao II asked.

"Ah Nanao-kun,he already left." the co-worker answered.

"Eh?" now Nanao was really pissed off. "Left?" he repeated.

"Mhm,but he said to tell you that,when you finish with your work,you have to go to his house and to give him something." Akira said.

"Yeah,thanks..." Nanao mumbled,coming back to his office.He took his jacket and the keys for his car,after that left the building.

 

"I hope that,he isn't asleep,because I will smash the door." he frowned,while he was already on way to his chief's house.

[Saga]

From roof to roof,street after street,Nanao I was like a cat,jumping from building to another building. When he reached the neighborhood where the man lived,the assassin found himself on a tree. He sat down,his long coat hanging from the branch,but it was high enough to be visible to anyone.

 

It was close to midnight,but yet a car stopped in front of the house. So it be,the blade-master could wait.Laying back on the tree,holding his blade up to his shoulder,he waited with his eyes closed. The breeze was calming his heart. How long it was since he started doing this job? - He couldn't remember,so didn't waste any time on thinking it back. The male tilted head up,his jaw-line was perfectly shaped, his adam's apple moved every time he took a deep breath. He wanted to finish it as soon as possible and head to have a drink,some strong drink.

[Bloodysadist]

Nanao II just arrived in front of the house.He took the papers and went out of the car.The boy rang the bell,waiting for his chief to open the door.

 

"Ah Nanao-chan." the chief opened the door,seeing how angry the other male looked.He knew that Nanao hate when he call him "chan",but he just loved making him more angry.

"You...here are the folders.I can leave now,right?" Nanao was too tired to stay at his chief's house and because of it he wanted to go home soon.

"Hahaha,okay,okay. You're free now." the old male chuckled,petting Nanao II's head.

 

"Thank you for the hard work till now." the chief said,smiling.

"You're talking like you'll die soon." the other male chuckled.

"Haha,sorry.Now go and relax.Oh and tomorrow you can stay at home." after these words the chief,closed the door.

 

Nanao II sighed.He went back to his car,opening the door and siting in it.

"Sometimes he remind me of my own father." the young male chuckled ironic,laying back on the car seat.

[Saga]

When the blade-master heard the car ready to leave,he got up and disappeared from the tree. There was an open window from the roof,so Nanao I was standing on the roof.

He didn't want to be seen,so quickly he entered the house;his senses were sharp, even though he has never been at the male's place,he could find where the other was - and that was the bedroom.

 

-"So,you came boy?",the old man was drinking whiskey,he expected the assassin. It was like saying goodbye with a happy smile on his face,with a glass of whiskey and warm heart. These things weren't known to Nanao I. He slowly stepped inside the room.

-"Why do you do this job,kid?",the chief turned around,not surprised to see the face of his murder.

 

Araki drew out his shiny silver blade and was a few inches away from the man. He wasn't a human at the moment, he didn't talk. He was expressionless and cold-hearted. That was the rule in a world such as his. A second took to spin his blade and cut the chief across the chest,leaving his 'X' mark. His white clothes got slightly dirtied.The old man fell on his knees,dropping the glass down,but with his free hand he grabbed onto Nanao I's long coat.

-"Don't kill...h-him... Be-become..the law it-self..",he coughed his last words and closed his eyes forever. What he meant by that? Nanao I stood there,watching the blood spreading on the floor like a puddle.

[Bloodysadist]

Nanao was ready to leave.He looked at the back mirror,to see if there had something.For a second there had a shadow on the tree.The young male,blinked several times,turning forward,but then turned again to see behind him.

 

There was nothing.Only the moon were lighting in this dark night.It feels like something was about to happen.

"Shit!" Nanao jumped away from the car,going back to his chief's house.Just before to ring,he heard something,like a glass dropped on the floor.

 

The young male didn't think to long and broke the door,running to his chief's bedroom.

"What the hell is happening here?" he thought,while opening the door.He stepped inside and froze on the spot.

"Chief..." was the only thing which he could say at the moment.

[Saga]

As soon as he heard steps running to upstairs,the assassin hid himself in the shadows. The door opened. Nanao I gritted his teeth,another annoying thing to happen today. He stood behind the door and when the back of the boy was visible,the blade-master moved quickly,perfectly sending his katana for Nanao II's neck.

[Bloodysadist]

Nanao II's index and middle finger catched the blade in a tough grip.He turned his head to see who was behind him,but it was to dark.The young male could see only Nanao I's silver eyes.

 

"What did you do bastard?" he yelled,still holding the katana.

[Saga]

Was it his imagination or the boy actually caught it? Dodging it,yes,but catching it? Nanao I was fast and he knew that,but this hand,he moved his glance up to the boy's face. He had no problem with the darkness - ah,it was that same brat. Nanao I grinned widely, it was getting interesting.

 

-"Mr.Detective.",he said calmly with the same husky voice that the boy knew. Now wasn't time for chatting, the assassin retreated his sword and stepped forward showing his face under the moon's light which could get in the room though the window. His face looked down,but a second later he lifted the gaze up,meeting Nanao II's eyes.

-"Pleasure to meet you again.",in his voice,a small sarcasm played. He wasn't mistaken,this boy could fight well. So, he didn't attack a second time. He would wait for the other to do so,so instead,he started walking in a circle around the boy,as in,a predator around his prey.

[Bloodysadist]

Nanao II couldn't think well,because in front of his eyes,was laying his chief by an brat.The young male closed his eyes,remembering what his teacher was always saying:

"If you're angry,don't let your opponent to know that,understand? Try to make your emotions your strength."

 

Nanao II opened his eyes instantly,hearing Nanao I's voice.It was him,the male who made the young male's day the worst.It was the one who killed his chief.

"You....you were the one who killed him?" Nanao asked,ignoring everything what the other male have to say.While he was looking away,the detective saw some weaponry on his chief's shelf.

 

"I need just to take on of them." the young boy thought,starting to walk slowly,trying to go the the shelf.

[Saga]

The blade-master stopped circling around the other,he stood still when a question was asked. He tilted his head to side,lifting slowly his blade to lean it over a shoulder,a small grin formed.

-"No,Santa did it.",a simple joke came to mind. Of course,he did it. But with this white hair and this white outfit stained in red,a psychopathic image of Santa could be related. The male saw that something caught Nanao II's attention. It was a blade on the shelf. Nice,Nanao I stepped aside and allowed to the boy to move closer.

 

-"Go ahead,take it. Show me what you've got.",as said,the assassin lowered his sword,slightly swishing it for a second to cleaned it from the old man's blood. He cut through the air,so a trembling noise echoed in the silence.

[Bloodysadist]

"Hah,how funny you're...It seem like that,you aren't scared from me." the young male said. It looked like that the other male didn't really care that he killed a person. Nanao II stopped for a moment,looking at Nanao I.

 

"Let me ask you something!?Don't you regret that you kill people?" he asked,waiting for the other's answer. Of course he was too close to the shelf,so the Nanao II grabbed the katana on it,but didn't attack.It was to early to attack.The boy wanted to see what will do Nanao I.He looked really smart and it seemed like that he is one of the best assassin.Nanao II just touched lightly the floor with his katana,still looking at the other.

[Saga]

-"Regret?",he repeated a part of the question. What was the regret actually? Something you feel after a thing you've done or you haven't? Or something to feed your hungry ego with? Nanao I chuckled coldly and looked over the dead body.

 

-"He was begging. Crying and gasping for a help. He really wanted to live,but a trash like him doesn't deserve it.",it was a lie. But that was the point - to angry the young boy. Nanao I was actually thinking that the old man was cool in his dying hour,but turned it in a secret. He didn't regret it,but he wasn't proud of it either. What was life and death? - simply words.

[Bloodysadist]

"Like I thought." Nanao II mumbled,lifting his sword.He looked at it and smiled faintly.He remembered all the trainings which he had to do and all the words which his teacher told him. "Don't show your emotions.", "Be like an ice.","Don't kill with the sword,but teach your opponent,that everything is important in this life.". Yeah that was the key,Nanao II was sure that Nanao I have someone who i important to him.

 

He was ready to stop the fight and just to talk with the other male,but he heard what Nanao I said,the young male totally lost control on himself.

"Bastard! You don't have the right to call him trash." Nanao II scream,running to Nanao I and swung the sword.What was the other male thinking?Or he just couldn't think?

[Saga]

This stance,Nanao I widened slightly his pupils. It was the same or an imagination? It was his time to catch the sword with a bare hand, two fingers locked the blade. Their fighting stances were the same. The blade-master was confused. There was only one way for that to happen,but he didn't want to believe it.

 

To calmed down the boy from the anger,Nanao I send a kick towards the male's ribs. He wanted the best of Nanao II, not a blinded by the anger fool.

[Bloodysadist]

Nanao II was surprised,seeing that Nanao I stopped his katana with a bare fingers.It wasn't possible for someone who is not blade-master to catch the sword without a wound.The young male grinned ironic.Nanao I was a good opponent. Just for a moment Nanao II forgot why he started to fight with the other.

 

He saw Nanao I's leg,but there wasn't time to step back or to block the hit,because of it the detective just squatted.He lifted his head up to see Nanao I's face.But what happened? His position was just like Nanao II's teacher.

 

"You....who is you master?" he hissed.

[Saga]

His right foot was slightly forward,the other moved back when he couldn't kick the other. Slightly bent,the blade was stretched out to side,ready to attack,his silver eyes piercing and fearful. But then. - He lowered the sword and grinned.

 

-"I shall be asking that....Na-na-o.",he gave attention to the boy's name and underlined it by low voice. Was it an irony to have the same names? But the other didn't know it.

 

Another exciting game started between those two.

The assassin turned his blade with the back,it was only when he didn't intent to kill. He decided to keep the last wish of this old man,but the other part of 'becoming the law itself',he couldn't quite get it yet.

-"Stand up and fight,boy. Show me your blade.",he grinned,his blood was boiling all over,his eyes were glittering with excitement. Ah,that was it - he was feeling his heart once again.

[Bloodysadist]

"Heh,answering on question with question.You're smart,do you know Mr.Miyachi.Or that only a fake name?" Nanao chuckled lightly.Wait,he was chuckling in front of his chief's dead body?!How ironic,but Nanao II had to say that,there are only few people which can make him smile.But why one of them had to be that man with who he had to fight.

 

"Hah." Nanao II got up,squeezing his katana.He smiled and ready to make his way,the detective swung,trying to cut Nanao I's right arm.

[Saga]

Nanao I grinned wolfishly, the boy wasn't a fool. He guessed right, that wasn't his real name,but that didn't matter at the moment. When the boy got up,the blade-master stepped backward, wary of every movement.

 

The funny thing was that at the same time he attacked - so did Nanao II,but even funnier was the fact that they both darted for the right side.

 

The assassin frowned,their swords crossed dangerously since the factual swing was on the same side at the same time - he had to jump backward to not get too close to this body.

 

-"I see...",he chuckled. Everything was clear, Nanao I got who taught Nanao II the art of blade-mastering.

 

-"How is the old man?",the nostalgia took control over the assassin's heart,something that wasn't allowed in his caged world. He didn't know that their teacher was already dead. His expression softened at the thought of his old friend,his old teacher and as well - his father.

[Bloodysadist]

Nanao II was too confused.He saw Nanao I's movements and there the same as his own.He knew that there had something in this male which made him to feel like he's with his teacher,but in the same time he knew that Nanao I killed his chief and that,because of it,he wanted to continue the fight.

 

"Hah? Oh well,I'm happy that I'm not the only one who is talking to himself." in this serious fight,why Nanao II said this joke?Maybe deep in his heart he just didn't want to fight with this man.

 

"Who?" the young male blinked several times,couldn't understand what is the other talking.

[Saga]

Simple. He put the sword before him,guiding himself to stay bent lightly forward while ' was kneeling.

 

-"Nobuyoshi Araki.",how long has it been since he last said his own father's name? He felt somehow closer to his old man by talking to Nanao II. Now he could tell why his father taught this boy these techniques in a fight. The little Nanao was like Nanao II. Full with emotions and naivety. He wanted to know at least if his father was happy,although his betrayal toward him.

[Bloodysadist]

"Nobuyoshi Araki?" repeat Nanao II,couldn't believe that he is hearing that name again. "How?...How do you know about him?Don't say that you're..." the young male paused for a bit,looking for a moment at Nanao I. He really remind him to his teacher.His words,his eyes. Yeah these eyes were the same as his teacher's.

 

Nanao II took a deep breath,looking down.He remembered what happened to his teacher and squeezed his sword,like it was the only thing which could stop his anger yo come out again.

"He...."started Nanao. "....He.is dead.He died...one year ago." he sighed,still looking down.

[Saga]

-"He?",he nudged the boy to continue with his sentence with a repeated "he". When he heard what the other said,his body stiffed. A squeezing feeling wrapped around his heart. It was suffocating him,another lost reason,another lost purpose,another lost dear.

 

His expression became cold. But inside - nobody knew better than him what it was like. Nanao I got up on his feet and went to the dead body to get his blade's cover. He drew his sword back and turned around,heading for the window,full of openings and weaknesses.

 

-"I see.",he said quietly and calmly, -"I guess it's better to be dead...",he didn't finish his thought 'better than paying for his own son's sins.'. Of course,without finishing the thought,it looked like Nanao I was pretty glad that Nobuyoshi was dead. But it wasn't like that.

[Bloodysadist]

Finally Nanao II looked up,seeing Nanao I's face. First he thought that the other male was going to regret about what happened,but when he heard his words,he couldn't help.The anger came out again.

 

"You'll regret for these words!" he yelled,lifting his katana and running to Nanao I. Just when the other was ready to leave,the detective swung his sword,trying to cut Nanao I's back.

[Saga]

The blade-master has lost any spirit right now, he didn't want to fight,rather he wasn't able to. His eyes glanced from the corner of his vision,seeing the boy lifting the blade. It cut pretty well. Nanao I chuckled lightly. So that was the feeling to be cut, he never knew it.

 

Having his top clothes torn,exposing his back,some blood slid down,as if spiraling around his dragon-shaped tattoo. His mark of being a part of the mafia. His foot stepped on the windowsill and the sword was lifted up above his shoulder to glance over Nanao II's angry face.

 

-"Your win.",he chuckled and jumped,knowing pretty well it was time for him to disappear somewhere. He had to take rid of his feelings,then go report to his boss about the success of his mission and top of that to hide his cut. He wouldn't put Nanao II in any danger. There wasn't much time. He disappeared.

[Bloodysadist]

Nanao II saw the dragon tattoo,but just before to try to stop Nanao I,he disappeared.The young male looked at the moon,his eyes full with anger.

"Hah,I'll find you..." he mumbled,while lighting a cigarette.Nanao II,took his phone from his pocket and called to the police.

"Good evening. It's Detective Nanao from South Tokyo Police." he said.

"Good Evening,Nanao-san.Can we help you?" a male voice answered.

"Yeah,I'm at Mr.Yukio,the chief of the police's house. And I need you to send me some people,because...."Nanao paused for a moment,looking at his chief's dead body."...he is dead." he continued.

"Dead? What happened?" the other male asked.

"It's not for the phone." Nanao II answered.

"I'll send someone,just wait there,okay?" the other male said.

Nanao just closed the telephone,going to his chief.He turned the body,so he could see the chest.

"What the..." Nanao II,couldn't believe what he was seeing. There has a "X" on his chief's body.That meant only one thing,that Miyachi,the male with who Nanao II was fighting is Nanao I.

"BASTARDDD!!!" he cried,falling on his knees. "You'll pay for this!"
