Chapter 1
The Morning
Alright, I don't own Dee, Ryo, Biky or Carol.

'Bang.' The gunshot echoed through the almost empty room. 'Bang...Bang Bang.' Three more. Blood shoots out the back of someone's body and spots of it color the wall behind them. The gun drops to the floor, still smoking, as the person responsible for making it smoke runs away.
Ryo caught the person with four bullet holes in their chest as they fell forward. Blood seeped onto his hands and into his white shirt, staining both a deep red.
"No Dee..." Tears filled Ryo's eyes as a familiar face looked up at him. Dee laughed which turned into a cough. Ryo laid Dee down on his back on the floor, Dee's head still cradled in Ryo's lap.
"This ain't nothing—" Dee coughed and his lips became wet with blood. Dee lifted a shakey hand up to his mouth. He pulled his hand away and looked at his bloody fingertips. "Yep, nothing..." Dee sighed and closed his eyes.
"No, Dee!" Ryo shook Dee lightly. Dee smiled again.
"Love ya Ryo..." Dee coughed again and more blood made to drip down his chin. Ryo wiped it away as tears ran down his own cheeks.
"I love you too Dee..." Dee smiled and then smiled slowly. "No..." Ryo brought Dee's now lifeless body up to him and held him close. "Dee...Dee..."
"Ryo!" Ryo's eyes snapped open. "Ryo!" Dee's face came into focus above him. "Damn man, you didn't have to yell for me, I'm right here."
"Hu?" Ryo sat up and shook his head. Dee watched him carefully.
"What got into you? Nightmare?" Ryo stopped moving his head to look at Dee sideways, a small smile on his face.
"You could say that." The smile faded as Ryo looked away. The truth was, that dream—that nightmare— was no stranger to Ryo. He had been having it more often. Could it really mean something?
"Earth to Ryo. Come in Ryo. Hellooo!" Dee was waving his hands trying to get Ryo's attention. Ryo turned back to him.
"Sorry." He laughed lightly. "But daydreaming is just so much more fun than being in the real world with you."
"Hey!" Dee pushed Ryo. "You weren't complaining earlier." Dee got a wicked look in his eyes. "Want I should refresh your memory?" Dee grabbed Ryo and pulled the other man toward him.
"Dee!" Ryo whined as Dee pushed him down onto the bed and climbed on top of him. "Not now!" Dee ignored him as he began to kiss Ryo's shoulders. "Dee! I mean it! Not now!" Ryo pushed Dee roughly off of him. Dee sat in shock as Ryo turned over in the bed and stopped moving.
"What's your problem?" Ryo didn't answer. Dee reached a hand out and touched Ryo's arm lightly. Ryo pulled his arm out of Dee's touch.
"Go to bed Dee." Dee pulled his hand back and laid back into bed, his eyes searching the ceiling of the room. What was going on? Ryo had been awfully short with him lately. Dee closed his eyes.
"Maybe it's just me..." Dee said to the ceiling.
Ryo laid with his elbow under his head. 'I can only hope that that I'm taking things to the extreme. It's only a dream right? Nothing to be worried about...' Ryo sighed and closed his eyes. 'Everything will look better in the morning...'
"Ryo!" Biky walked into the kitchen.
Ryo turned to him. "Yeah?" Dee sat at the table reading the paper. The robbery that he and Ryo had had to deal with the night before was now in the paper.
"They sure do change a lot of stuff." Dee set the paper down and looked at Biky. "What do you want?" Biky frowned at him.
"I was talking to Ryo." Dee frowned and made a move to get up. Biky stepped toward him.
"Alright you two." Ryo took the two plates of eggs off the counter and set them in front of the two boys. "What did you want Biky?" Biky and Dee glared at eachother another second before relaxing into the chairs. Biky took a bite of the eggs before turning back to Ryo.
"Carol and I are going somewhere after school. I just wanted to let you know that I'll be home late." Dee swallowed the egg in his mouth.
"Where are you two going?" Biky took another bite and glared at Dee.
"That's none of your business." Dee threw a piece of his egg at Biky. "Hey!"
"Alright you two!" Ryo grabbed Dee's collar and held him back. "Shouldn't' you be going to school?" He said to Biky. Biky nodded and got up from his chair. "And you," Ryo looked at Dee. "We should be getting to work too."
"Whatever." Dee took his and Biky's plates and set them in the sink. "I'll drive." Biky grabbed his backpack as someone knocked on the door.
"I'll get it!" Biky ran to the door and met Carol. "I'll see you later Ryo!" Biky said as he slammed the door. Dee shut off the water from washing off the plates. He turned to Ryo who was walking into the back of the apartment.
"Where are you going?" Ryo stopped and looked over his shoulder at Dee.
"I'm going to take a shower." Dee walked over to Ryo.
"Need help?" Ryo walked through the bathroom door and slammed it in Dee's face.
"No." Came the muffled reply from the other side of the door. Dee pulled back.
"Fine, I'll see you at work." Ryo waited as the front door to the apartment slammed and Dee left. Ryo sighed and turned on the water.
"I'm sorry Dee. I'm just having a hard time right now." Ryo began to take off his cloths. He sighed again as he pulled back the curtain and stepped into the hot shower, hoping the heat would help melt his worries away.
