-Bakura-

"Yo, Chaos! Ryou's ordering dinner! What d'you want?" I call from the couch where I'm watching a news special covering the latest escapade Chaos and I had. Which is quite a surprise, since they usually don't figure it out for a couple days, and this one was from this morning. They're getting better.

"Pizza." I glance up, seeing my partner approaching the couch I'm on. He's not wearing a shirt, and his pants are unbuttoned, making me swallow. His host body is quite attractive, and Chaos knows it, using the body to whatever end he desires. Which, he can usually get, by some means or another. Vincent probably doesn't care for being used in such a way, but then, he's almost never in control of his own body. And what the hell do we care? We're thieves, and he's just another victim. It's not my problem that what he lost was a little more important than some random jewels.

"I see. You really have a thing for pizza, don't you?" I look back at the TV, hoping he'll just…go away or something. I'm not really in the mood to give him what he wants, if he wants what I think he wants. "Means Vincent's not awake, since I know he doesn't really like pizza all that much."

"Is there a problem with my liking of pizza?" Chaos purrs as he kneels onto the couch beside me, beginning to pad over to me. Oh hell…Ra, why me?

"Guys!" Ryou walks into the room, and Chaos leans back, making sure to let as much of his chest be seen as possible.

He should know that Ryou's nowhere near interested. Then again, he probably doesn't give a damn. I think the full moon is coming…Now what did Ryou read about demons and the full moon? Oh yes. They get horny. Well, he didn't put if that way, but that's basically what he said. Apparently, demons tend to fuck around the nights of the full moon. I should know that, considering Chaos tends to come to me to get laid. He tried getting Marik to fuck with him once, but Marik is tied to Ryou like no other. Gods, Chaos can be such a pain sometimes. But I suppose he's worth it, considering there's no better partner for thieving.

"What is it, Ryou?" I drawl, thankful for the distraction from Chaos.

"I've already ordered the pizza-" I cut in with a comment about him being a mind reader. "-but Marik's coming over tonight. Do you two think you can make yourselves scarce?"

"Oh, is little Ryou embarrassed to participate in adult situations while we're here?" Chaos says mockingly. He's such an ass when he doesn't get what he wants. I reach over and punch him lightly on the arm.

"We can hang out around the bars. It'll give Chaos some time to cool off." I comment and Ryou smiles happily, making me feel better about myself. Normally, I don't give a fuck about how people see me, but I feel bad for the way Chaos and I mooch off of Ryou's hospitality.

"Thank you, Bakura. The pizza should be here-" Ryou looks over his shoulder as the doorbell rings. He pads away, leaving his sentence unfinished. Chaos looks over at me, an eyebrow raised.

Sometimes I wonder if Vincent's eyes are naturally gold. It's such a strange color for eyes…But then, the few times I've ever actually spoken to Vincent, his eyes were crimson, like mine. But that doesn't make much sense either. Red eyes are usually a sign of an albino, which I am not, and he definitely is not. He's got black hair, after all. His skin is pale enough, I'll give him that, but he's not an albino.

"What are you thinking about, Bakura?" I hear a voice ask from the doorway and look up to see Marik standing there, still wearing his SOLDIER uniform. And I use the term 'uniform' lightly, because he, like their general Sephiroth, does not wear the standard uniform. Instead he wears some baggy cargo pants of various colors and tank tops of various colors. I really hate when I see him wearing this purple shirt, because it's like an assault on the eyes. I think his little brother, who's a Turk, picked it out for him.

"Nothing that concerns your dumb ass, Marik." I smirk, standing and motioning for Chaos to follow my lead. "We'll be leaving, with our pizza, so you and Ryou can have some 'alone time.'" He takes a swing at me when I pass him by, but I knew it was coming, so I ducked in time. We all laugh, even Chaos, and then Ryou appears, carrying a pizza. He hands it to me, and Chaos and I leave the house. Somewhere along, Chaos picked up a shirt and put it on, meaning he wasn't quite as sexy now. Yay.

I manage to open the box and snatch two pieces of the pizza before Chaos swipes the box. I swear, Vincent's body must burn a lot of energy harboring Chaos and the other demons, because all Chaos does is lounge around while we're not on a heist, yet he's as skinny as I am, and that's not healthy. But I know he's not starving himself or puking it all back up, because we're always together. Unless one of us is having sex. And even then, it's iffy.

We, well Chaos, finish off the pizza quickly then gravitate to our favorite bars that we aren't kicked out of. Man, I can remember when we got kicked out of 7th Heaven in the Sector 7 slums like it was yesterday. It was actually about two months ago, the night of the full moon, meaning that Chaos was raring to go, wanting sex like a dog in heat. Unfortunately, he threw himself at the guy the owner of the bar, some whore named Tifa, has been eyeing for awhile. So, while the guy's girlfriend thought the whole situation was hilarious, Tifa did not, and told us we were never allowed there again. It also might have had something to do with Chaos insulting her in several creative ways that I can't quite remember at a moment, but whatever. Just another bar added to the list of places we aren't supposed to go anymore.

-Sephiroth-

"Where the hell is Marik, Zack?" I demand as I walk into the room where the Turks and SOLDIERs are gathered. My second-in-command shrugs, and I cannot help but roll my eyes. He was with Tseng when these orders came in, so of course he wouldn't know. But, his brother might…Now, where is that Turk?

Ah, there he is. With Rufus' little bitch. I walk up to the two of them, and they look at me, fluttering their eyelashes. I'd always heard that they were very open with their sexuality, but I thought that someone sleeping with Rufus ShinRa would be less inclined to flirt. I debate mentioning this, then decide against it, because I doubt I will like the answer.

"Where is your brother, Ishtal?" Marik's brother thinks about it for a moment, then looks over at a clock.

"He would be with Ryou, at the moment." I finally get an answer. Who the hell is Ryou, is something I wonder subconsciously, but then decide I don't care. "I can send him a message, if you like…" Again, he flutters his eyelashes, and I wonder just how he and his brother managed to get those purple eyes. All right, time to get this meeting going. There isn't the best of blood between all the SOLDIERs and the Turks, so the less time we all spend in a room together, the less likely someone will die.

I nod curtly to him and make my way to the head of the room where Tseng is waiting. Zack stands beside him, but moves to my side when I reach Tseng. At least he still remembers that he's a SOLDIER, and that comes before his relationship with Tseng. I notice that Rude is standing beside Tseng, a clicker in his hands. So, it seems this is one of the Twins escapade. They're the only ones out of the damn ShinRa family with enough brains to give us the proper tools to brief our charges. Of course, telling which one is nearly impossible until the mission is finished. Then, we'll be congratulated by the one who cooked it all up, and the other will laugh because we went along with whatever the scheme was. Those two are such pains.

Tseng and I look out on the crowd of the higher level SOLDIERs and Turks. I clear my throat, and all noise stops. "Tonight, we have received orders to capture the thieves Bakura and Vincent." A few murmurs break out at that, and Tseng motions to Rude to press the clicker. A picture of the two appears on the screen. Hmm, I wonder how someone managed to get a picture of them?

"The one with the white hair and red eyes is Bakura. His partner, Vincent, is the one with the black hair and golden eyes. They are extremely dangerous, which is why only you, the elite, have been given this mission. They are known to be living in Midgar, somewhere in the slums. However, information is extremely difficult to come by, which proves just how adept they are at escaping." Tseng takes over. "Should any of you come into contact with either of these two, do not attempt to capture unless aided."

The door at the back of the room opens, and Marik slips inside. He takes a look up at the screen and slaps a hand over his eyes, groaning. All in the room turn to him, and I raise an eyebrow. "SOLDIER 1st Class, Marik Ishtal. Explain your absence."

He looks at me and shrugs. "I was off the clock, so I went to see my lover. What the hell is Bakura and Chaos doing on our screen?" My eyebrow raises further. "Err, what have I missed so far, sir?"

"We have been ordered to capture these two thieves, Bakura and Vincent." Zack responds, and Marik stares for a moment.

"Wait, Vincent? Vincent doesn't have a damn thing to do with the thieving. It's all Bakura and Chaos." Tseng and I catch each other's eye then motion for Marik to follow us to my office. The four of us, Tseng, Marik, Zack, and I all take various places around my office, making ourselves comfortable.

"What do you know, Ishtal?" I demand, and he shrugs again.

"I just know where they're staying. I run into them every now and then. 'Kura's not so bad, but Chaos is downright evil. I've never even spoken to Vincent." Marik says. "You guys don't understand yet, but if you bring Chaos in, you will. There's a big difference between them, according to 'Kura." We stay quiet for awhile, thinking it over. "Listen, I'll tell you where you can find 'em usually, but you've gotta promise nothing bad will happen to Ryou. Otherwise, I'll quit being a SOLDIER and give them fair warning that you're coming for them."

I snort at his threat. "No harm will come to 'Ryou.' Now, where do they stay?"
