Well...needless to say, that was a rather unpleasant fall. And oddly enough it was through a curious shining little hole in the wall. Ahahahahah~! How strange, how strange indeed~! Well~ there was nothing to be done about that now, was there~? All Izaya knew was that he was there, in his beloved city all of a sudden...but he did note-there were a few...minor changes. Hrm, how weird~! Peculiar! Ahahaha! This should be a fun exploration~! For one, a cake shop down the road had urned into an arcade in the instant he fell into that hole. Something definitely unlikely, and yet it was right there before his eyes~! Ahahahah! A few other shops here and there had changed, and a bus stop was moved from one end of the road onto the opposite side. My, my...something was definitely going on in /his/ city~ But aaaah, the refreshing (and reassuring thing-though Izaya would never admit it), was that the looks from the people passing by hadn't changed. In fact-if they did, they were more frightened and aware of him than usual~! Oh lovely, lovely day~! Maybe his humans had finally realized how much they truly needed to love him, and were afraid of facing him, now knowing they realized a little late. But...better late than never right? Izaya grinned as he walked, dramatically bowing to random humans as he passed by-aaah, some of them ran. Ehehehe~! How cute, denial~! Hrm...well, since that curious fall, he was feeling rather muddled, despite the reassuring fear-filled stares. Aaaah~! Why not take a little visit to Raira~? He was sure little Masaomi and Moe-kun were around to poke fun at~! Yes, YES~! That would heighten his spirits~! So...off he went to Raira...but what he didn't expect was to run into Shizu-chan as soon as he slipped into the front doors. Meaning-/right/ into the man. "Umphh~! Horaaa~? Aha...Ahahahah~!" IOzaya stepped back, ready to run, smiling is usual sweet smile-aaah, Shizu-chan just had to be the annoyance who had utterly /perfect/ timing didn't he~? "Shizu-chan~! My, fancy seeing you here~! Ahahahaha...hooh, did you finally decide to go back to school and check up on what happened to that protozoic brain of yours~? Check up on why you never learn anything of intelligent use~?" It wasn't the informants fault that he was automatically and innately sarcastic towards the other...right~? Ahahahah~
Shizuo growled under his breath as he started his exit out of the building. This sucked... Terribly. All he was doing was subbing for that dammed gym teacher for the day and... Well... They said that the kid wasn't hurt and the equipment was replaceable... And he needed time off. But this was ridiculous! Time off for a whole week? His day was just not going well. But then, right as the door swung open in his direction, his day was the most terrible of all. "Ofmph!" he said as he crashed into the other person. Regaining his balance, he couldn't help but stare at the guy. Raven hair, crimson (Wait. Those has to be contacts.) colored eyes, and pale skin wrapped around a ridiculously fluffy looking coat. The blonde was dropped out of his daze when he heard the man speak-up. "The hell? Fucking pest. Who the hell are you to say that? Huh?" he shouted out, feeling his cheeks redden in anger and his fists clench. "And how the fuck do you know me?"
Izaya blinked-huh~? The then smirked that usual knowing smirk of his and grinned soon after-ooh, was Shizu-chan playng dumb~? Wait...the man did...look...older? Haaaah~? Aha...Ahahahahaha! Ah, that was it. Izaya must've hit his head on the wall or something and dreamt he fell through a hole in the wall~! Yes, yes, all this is a dream~! "Well...that's unpleasant." he said, voice suddenly dropping the normal playful tone he had in it. "Even when I'm knocked out, Shizu-chan still manages to get in my head...~" he said sighed-but the road under his feet felt real enough, and so did the collision with Shizu-chan earlier. Maybe...Ah~! Izaya smirked, "I know how to fix this~ "he smirked and flicked his little knife out, pointing it at the other, "Care for one of our chases downtown, Shizu-chan~? Ahahaha~ "
The blonde stared at the knife in front of him, blinking, "The hell? Man put that thing away. Your fucking nuts!" he shouted, knocking the hand away. Who was this guy? He never remembered anyone like him, especially making a enemy out of the guy. So why the hell would he want to bring out a knife and ask him to chase him. After awhile... A thought popped into his head. The teachers! That's right! He heard about this. The older teachers would play pranks at the new ones, try and get them scared and run off. This must be one of those pranks. "Hey. You can, haha, put that away now." he said in between laughs, "Aha... Seriously. You could, ha, get in trouble here with that." Shizuo then grinned at the other. "Never knew the guys would send out a crazy ass clown. Hey. Who sent you anyways? Mr. Tanaka? Mrs. Hiro?"
zaya blinked and stared when the knife was knocked away from him. Aaah~? And Shizu-chan was...laughing. Really...truly laughing...? Areeeeeeeeee? This was some weird dream~! Shizu-chan would /never/ act like that around him~! Aaah, how strange indeed~! "Ne...Shizu-chan can I ask you a serious question~?" Izaya grinned despite himself. "Did you manage to kill me, or put me in a comatose state and now I'm having this weird dream~?" It was a long shot, but it was better than believing this was really Shizu-chan...as in...Heiwajima Shizuo that tossed about trashcans and vending machines-ahh! That was it. "So odd today Shizu-chan~! By now yo wouldn't uprooted some random object-most likely the lockers, since they're here. And tossed it at me~! Wow, you're so well behaved~! How strange indeed~! And even when I pulled out your favorite little TOY!" at the last word, he made a very precise slash, tearing the man's shirt open-expecting to see his scar, the one he made on the blonde's chest so many years ago.
Shizuo stared at the other man, razing one eyebrow curiously. Was this guy serious? Seriously? He just met the guy and the crap that came out of this mans mouth just wouldn't stop. "Hey man, whatever your talking about, I had no part of it. Would you stop the joke already?" he said to the other calmly, till a blur of a hand passed his vision. Looking down his own shirt was sliced open and a nasty bleeding cut was under the now staining white shirt. "What the fu-?" the blonde shouted in surprise and reached out, grabbing the collar on the others by instinct. "What that fuck was that for asshole? I just bought this damn shirt! Your fucking batshit! Ive had a totally fucking horrible day and don't make me punch yer face in man. Hell go back to the asylum where you came from freak." Shizuo yelled at the other, tossing the raven to the side easily. Grumbling the blonde stepped over the insane man and continued his way outside. Looking down at the cut on his chest, he knew it didn't hurt. The cut itself didn't hurt, but the fact this was one of the shirts he paid for himself... Damn. It didn't even look repairable.
Well, that was an expected and yet...unexpected reaction. Yes, Shizu-chan /did/ get mad. yes, Shizu-chan /did/ threaten to hit him...no, Shizu-chan didn't threaten to /kill/ him, and no, Shizu-chan didn't uproot anything. Izaya frowned-why did Shizu-chan never react the way he wanted him to? This is exactly why he hated the man~! So annoying, So /annoying/ Shizu-chan~! Izaya winced slightly as he collided with the wall-hey~! That was rude too~! Well...at least it was more...Shizu-chan-like. But...he saw no scar. This was definitely not good. Ah-...eeeh...and now he could feel the side of his head bleeding-aaaah yes. It must've been from when he first-fell through the hole and landed in an unholy position on his head on concrete-and second, now this. The double blow finally managed to split the skin open a bit. Well...that was not good. Not only was he bleeding but it confirmed it...this wasn't a dream. Izaya huffed, smirking. This was insane...completely, utterly, insane~! Unreasonable~! Out of his control~! He hated that."Aha...ahahaha...ahahaha...AGAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" the maniacal laugh the informant was famous for finally broke through and he laughed his heart out, leaning his head back against the wall and allowing the blood to drip down his neck instead of his precious little face.
As Shizuo was walking he noticed that the man was silent behind him, that is, until he heard laughter behind. It really was a prank! Dammit Mr. Tanaka was really going to get it! Turning quickly behind him, the first thing he noticed was the man erupted in complete and utterly enjoyable laughter. The second, was the trickle of blood just noticeably going down his neck. "Shit!" the blonde cursed as he ran back to the other. Unable on what to do, Shizuo grabbed the others shoulders and shook lightly, worried he threw the man way too hard. "Hey man! You alright? Sorry! Hold on. Let's get ya to the nurse!"
Izaya continued to laugh even as he was grabbed and shaken. Ahahah~! Shizu-chan was worried~! How funny, how strange this all was~! In a sense, Izaya was concerned-disturbed, the situation was far too much~! At the same time, it was hilariously entertaining~! Okay~! He could adapt to this, at least until he found a way to get home. Aaaah, he was beginning to miss it already~! "Ahaha...Aha...ahaaa..." Izaya grew into a dead silence, that little smile still on his lips and a glassy look in his eyes from all the laughing. Aaah...yes, he could play along. This could be.../fun/~ "Aaaah...the room's spinning oh-so-wonderfully, Shizu-chan~! Myyy, you do look older than when I last saw you~!" he exclaimed, flipping his phone open and showing the blonde a recent picture of him in his bartender suit, throwing a car at him. What? Just because he was going to be.../nice/ didn't mean he couldn't /try/ to scare Shizu-chan a little.
Shizuo stared at the picture curiously. Was that really him? He has remembered picking up a few cars now and then... But in a bartenders suit? He never worked as a bartender, let alone drank too often. The blonde furrowed his brows and pinched the bridge between his nose. This was getting way too confusing. Either this guy was batshit, or he really was pranking him. Sighing in defeat, Shizuo dug in his pocket for one of the tissue packets he had gathered earlier in town. Maybe he should thank that pestering woman when he headed back into town. Unwrapping the packet, the other took of the clean wipes and dabbed at the spot on the others head. The he brushed it down to try and wipe off any fresh blonde. Hey freak. Let's get you down to the nurse. Your bleeding a lot." he said, patting the others shoulder in reassurance. "Names Shizuo, not this Shizu-whatever. Now let's get you inside..." he told the other and grabbed the strangers arm, pulling him inside and directing him to the infirmary. 'Was that really me?' he thought as he made is way, 'It couldn't be. I don't even know this guy... Maybe I didn't remember? Did I ever get too drunk or something?...'
And thus, Izaya employed his little kid front. Or rather-he really did react this way. Half to annoy Shizu-chan and half because well, he really was just like that at times. "No~! I don't waaaaanna go anywhere with Shizu-chan! Shizu-chan's annoyi-OW! Don't yank me up like that! I'll cut you again~!" he whined and whined and whined, sometimes even kicking at him and laughing. Whatever this fucked up world was-this was it's SHizuo. And he would fucking annoy the living hell out of him as he always did. He'd poke at him, prod at him, bend him, try to break him. Kill him. But aaaah, of course...he couldn't do that without starting a little game, now could he? Because...what fun would that be~? AHHAHAHAHAHAHAH! That was when Izaya decided. If he were going to be stuck here in this city, this Ikebukuro...he'd make sure hey allknew...Orihara Izaya. This was /his/ city! His humans, and this Shizu-chan was going to die~! Nothing would change~! AHAHAHAHHAHHAAHAHAHAHAHAH!
Shizuo stared at the other as he wonder in bewilderment as the other played his emotions left and right. The man must've hit is head harder than the blonde thought. Finally dragging the man into the room, he swung the door open without a second notice. "Hey! Anyone here?" he called out. Out of his luck, hanging on one of the desks in the room, a folded sign read 'OUT FOR LUNCH' in big red, bolded letters. "Damn…." Shizuo cursed as he dragged the other to one of the beds. Guiding the other to one of the beds, Shizuo shut the door he had left open from entering, locking it so the (most likely a crack-head) man couldn't escape, wondering if his mental state was in check. Shizuo grumbled when he walked over to the white clean cabinets and reached for cleaning alcohol, a wipe, and bandages. Dumping the items onto the bed next to the raven, Shizuo uncapped the bottle and poured some of the alcohol onto the wipe. "This is gunna sting…" he warned and started dabbing the area where the blood flowed. As he continued his ministrations, the blondes honey-brown colored eyes scanned the other up and down. Had he really ever met this guy before? Maybe at a bar or on the streets maybe? "Who are you?" he asked, sliding the wipe down to clean the mostly dried blood on his neck.
It wasn't like Izaya had stopped talking either. For every action Shizu-chan had...he had a comment. "Shizu-chan the room is emptyyyy, let's leave~! Ah~? You can't possibly know how to treat wounds~! What's all that stuff~? OW~! That stiiiiings~! Shizu-chan is a big meanie~! Always hurting me, either with punches or flying objects and now this~! Hey and why did you lock the door~? RAPE~! AHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHAHHAH!" This was fun~! Shizu-chan was so well-behaved despite the monster Izaya knew was waiting under there, just needing a little provocation. Or...the right kind of provocation. He fell back into the bed as the other asked for his name and feigned a pout, tearing up effectively-who was to say Izaya's acting was as horrible as Shizu-chan said sometimes? "Shizu-chan forgot me~! I'm so hurt~! After all the romances we shared in highschool~!" Okay, so the last part was a lie, but who cared~! AHAHAHAHAHH!
Shizuo cringed as the man replied and jerked the man up by his shirt. "Not done." he said as a matter of factly and took the bandages, starting to wrap them around the others head. "Romances my ass." he started "I haven't had a girlfriend for three years now. And she died long ago. So who the hell are you?" the blonde demanded, done with the others games. This man was really pissing him off, and he was ready to punch his face in... But.. He couldn't. It was one of his principles. To not harm a injured guy, whether how much he losses him off or not.
"Hey~! Bandages make me look ugly~!" he complained and laughed. Aaaah~? So this little Shizu-chan has a history of his own~? "Aaaaah, so you really not Heiwajima Shizuo neeee~? Sad." he shrugged. Aaaah enough, he wanted to get out of this tiny room and have /some/ breathing space between him and this same-faced, same attitude, same monstrous strength-ed Shizu-chan. Really, he'd never ever get in this proximity with /his/ Shizu-chan back home. Aaaah, in fact, he might've started to /miss/ all the slashing and cutting and tauntng and the GRRRRs~... "Awwwh how sad how sad~! But the Shizu-chan I know cant possibly be as nice~! Please, he'd no sooner crush me with his bare hands than help me~! And aaaah, a girlfriend~? What'd you do, accidentally hit her with a truck~? PFFFT-" Aaaaah, yes, the truck. Izaya was /really/ starting to miss trying to kill Shizu-chan back home. IN fact...how /would/ he get home. This game was getting old-as did most things in the informants eyes, all far too quickly too.
The blondes heart sank at the mention of the woman. Sighing he stuffed his hands in his pockets, pulling out one of his cancer sticks and lighting it, hoping to calm his nerves. "Yeah. My name is Heiwajima Shizuo. I don't know what you ride, but whatever happened made you hit yer head pretty hard." he said as he took in a long drag of the cigarette. Letting the smoke drift from his lips, the blonde leaned back on his hand. "Your close I guess... It was raining... Kinda seemed perfect for that night. She was one of those, ya know, pesky annoying girls. I called her a flea, we chased around, I thought I really hated her. Time went by... And yeah... So like I said... It was raining..." he said, tapping his finger on the cig. "We were running down the street, trying to get out of the rain... Hah... I remembered. She was so embarrassed. Her shirt clung to every curve she had.. Her long hair and pale skin, kinda the same color as yers, were drenched. I couldn't help but laugh... But... We got distracted... We were laughing and... And didn't notice the intersection light turned red and... I leaped over to protect her... Too late." he explained and sighed, lacing his fingers together, deep in thought and memory of the woman. It sucked, really. Now the more he thought about it, the more he noticed the raven haired man beside him was almost the same figure, eyes, his whole appearance, even his personality, was like hers... Damn. He was thinking too much about it.
Izaya went almost blank. But one thought clung to his mind. Just one...could it be~? But nooooo...no way~ Aha...right~? Hrrrm...this could be a new...game level. Aaah but what to ask? What to do...? Izayas own ruby orbs-flashed like fresh blood in deep thought. He grew serious-as he always did in deep thought. HAH! Shizu-chan was lucky and should consider himself privileged! Not many who knew Orihara Izaya had a chance to see his more clam, collected...conniving, and yet quiet side. Of course, it only ever lasted in most a minute between insane gestures and radical questions. "I do hope you're not talking about my sweet little Kanra-chan~..." he said-because really, if this was some kind of fucked up future world-which was completely possible considering this Shizu-chan looked older than his own back home...then...it could be...noooo. Kanra was still a baby. As far as he knew, she was still playing with her little knife at home, probably cutting up the couch by now. She couldn't have grown in the time span. So...reassured that it wasn't /his/ Kanra, this lovely little spawn, Izaya waited eagerly, almost feversihly excited for the other's answer.
Shizuo turned his head, eyebrows furrowed. "Huh?" he said immediately. "No... Her name was Izaya. Izaya Orihara." he replied immediately. Why would this man like to know her name anyways?... Oh... Well he himself brought the subject up. Still, the man before him curiously resembled his lost lover. Strange... Too strange...
Izaya grinned wildly. "PFFFFFFTT-AHAH...!"" OH GOD! This was too good! Too good! Izaya rolled onto his side and gasped for breath when he finally ran out. He then sat up and hummed, a confident smirk on his face. "Aaaah, now I know you're lying. I'm the /only/ Orihara Izaya, thank you~ "
Shizuos face turned dead cold and serious. "What? That's... That's not possible. Izaya was a girl and died. Your a man and... Pretty damn annoyingly alive." he replied. This guy was asking for it. Every word that spilled out of the others mouth seemed to slip into his already anger filled veins like poison. "Stop fucking around man. I'm being serious. Don't fucking make fun of her!"
Izaya couldn't help but laugh even more, shrugged and hoping off the bed. "Well I-"-then his cellphone rang. Aaaah...~? He took it out and looked at the caller ID...Aaah~! Shiki-san~! Finally, a pleasant, familiar person~! How strange...well, his phone was still able to receive messages from /his/ dimension. Well technically they were in the same city...and there were still the same service providers he supposed...so, it made sense. Well, to Izaya it made sense. To anyone else it was utter nonsense. But he answered, putting it on loud speaker. "Shiki-san~!" he greeting with a grin and chuckle, "What a pleasant surprise~! How rare of you to call me personally~!" The phone was a bit static at first before a somewhat clear: 'Izaya?' came through. "Yes, yes, it's me~! Douuushite Shiki-san~?" The man on the other line simply replied, 'Where are you, Izaya-san?' Izaya shook his head and tsked, "Tsk, tsk, tsk...I know you should be in my apartment by now. Sadly...something came up. I can't attend to my work as much as I'd looooove to...oh, if you're that eager, just take the folder at the top of my desk~..." 'The...pink one?' the other asked, voice devoid of actual tone of questioning. "Yes, yes~!" Izaya replied, "Just take it and go, I'll be home as soon as possible~! Everything about the drug dealers is in there~!" he chimed all the while watching Shizu-chan with a dark smirk.
Shiki...? Shiki... Wait...! Shizuo abruptly stood up from his place and snatched the phone from the other man's hand he screamed. "YOU GOD DAMMED MOTHER FUCKER! IT WAS YOUR FAULT! YOU TOOK HER FROM ME YOU ASSHOLE! I DON'T KNOW WHAT SHIT YOUR UP TO, BUT STAY THE FUCK AWAY FROM THIS GUY!" he shouted out at the phone, slamming it shut and tossing it on the bed. Yelling and growling in frustration, the blonde roughly sat down on the bed, holding his head at if keeping his sanity. "Fucking damn mother shit ass cunt asshole shit..." Shizuo mumbled random curses about the other man. Shiki. Shiki was the name of the man. The man who decided to stop paying the expensices for Izaya's hospital bills and told them to pull the plug. It was his fault! His godammed fault! Then he tried to sue the blonde, for every damn penny he had to his name. He never got it, but just the sheer thought of that man touching his dirty hands on another one of... "You..." he said, staring at the crimson mans eyes. "You... You aren't like... One of those reincarnation people... Right?" he asked, sitting his back up right. "Your joking right? Your name can't be Izaya..."
Izaya stared at the blonde. Uh-oh...he was going to be in sme serious trouble and have to explain some things to Shiki-san later. Or well...since it was Shizu-chan's voice, Shiki would hopefully-and most likey draw it up to another one of their wild street chases. But then the odd question came. "Aha...AHAHAHAHAH~! Reincarnation, people~? Please, Shizu-chan...and I don't think my client would like you yelling at him like that...he takes care of my little Kanra-chan when I'm away...you know, a child has to learn the important things~...how to lie, to cut, to cheat~... " he grinned and patted the other on the head, "There, there, maybe you're just a weeee bit too upright right now~ Did I catch Shizu-chan on a bad day~? Awwwhhh~ Hahahahah~! But really..." Izaya reached for his phone. "I will have to apologize to him now, you don't cross a mafia boss, especially when your child's in the same apartment room with them at the moment...aaaah, but Shiki-san's well acquainted with me, he'll understand~ " He flicked it open again to press call. Really, this Shizu-chan was just so entertaining~! He could keep pushing him and pushing him...but there was one curious part of Izaya that wondered...he really did love that woman~? The one who...naaaaah, then she must've had a completely different lif and personality. No matter. As far as he was concerned, Shizu-chan was as good as dead any day.
Shizuo stared at the floor, unable to feel or move. The words the man said, starting to really sound similar to the one he loved, made his heart sink further and further. It was until that he grabbed the bottom of the others fur trimmed coat and replied "She... Was a information broker... She worked with Shiki. She didn't have a child... But... You... Your so much like her... Are... Are you sure?" His voice had a almost begging tone to it as he asked the raven for reassurance. Had his love really come back? Had she lost her memories in the process? What had happed? Was she a man now? Who was this man truly? Many questions flooded the blondes mind, none of them lingering for so long.
Well, now he'd gotten hysterical~! Now, now, we don't need any unnecessary emotion or attachment now do we~? Alright, it was time to let the cat out of the bag. Izaya sighed and flipped his phone closed, folding his arms. "Well, I might as well tell you~..." he grinned, "Although, you might start to aim for my face after...I'm Orihara Izaya. And, I'd rather call myself an informant rather than an 'information broker' really, the name sounds so plain when you say it like that~ And I'm here because I fell through some kind of shining hole in my apartment after /you/ or rather, Shizu-chan tossed me through my own window. And I woke up here after a rather nasty blow to my head. So there. Either this is a horrible, horrible dream of mine-or, seeing as Shiki-san managed to call me and /you/ managed to injure me, it must be real and I really need to find a way /home./" he said, not pausing to wait for the blonde's mind to process the information. Izaya shrugged, "I've never known Shizu-chan to know any affection towards me. It's always IIIIZAAAAYAAA-KUUUUN and then BAM! CRASH! AhahahahaHAHAHAHAHA! But I take it this is some kind of parallel world, or Universe...if you may. And that would probably explain why people were looking at me so fearfully in the streets. Sadly, you've lost /your/ world's Izaya and I don't intent to stick around long enough to wind up the same. I have little Kanra-chan to teach to be just as horrible as me still, my own Shizu-chan to kill one day, and Shiki-san and other little things to attend to."
The blonde listened intentively to the other's explanation. "So... Your from another world and... Another me threw you?" he asked and sighed, standing up. "Well sorry... Since... Your most likely going to be here awhile... You need a place to stay? I live in a kinda clean apartment complex and whatever..." the man wandered off, rubbing his neck nervously. He couldn't believe he was really buying this story. After all, the guy did hit his head and seemed insane much... But the way he was... So much like... It couldn't be too awkward... Right?
Izaya blinked, could this Shizu-chan ever run out of unexpected answers~? Oooh, this could be even more fun~! Well, since he might be here a while...and Shizu-chan /did/ believe him..."Wow~! So well behaved Shizu-chan~! I'm shocked, I'm shocked~! That protozoic brain of yours is so much better in this world~! Ahahahaha~!" Well, he couldn't help it, could he? This was still Shizu-chan, maybe not /Shizu-chan/ Shizu-chan, but Shizu-chan nontheless. Izaya shrugged, "Well...I suppose I could. How am I supposed to trust you wont suddenly toss a truck at me like last time~?" he smirked-really, referring to Shizu-chan back home. It was a half joke, half real question. But he laughed anyway. "Aaaah, thanks but I'd rather take a stroll around my lovely city...despite being in another dimension...I intend to let every one know...~" he walked to the door, flicked his knife out and /jammed/ it hard into the lock, forcing it open. With a smirk, he looked back, "That Orihara Izaya, owns Ikebukuro...~ "
Shizuos eyes widened as the man picked the lock. "I- I won't hurt you like him!" he shouted defensively and shot up from his place. "Wait!" he said and grabbed Izayas arm, pulling him back and around, shoving him on the wall lightly. "Please... Can I... Uh... At least follow you? You... Er... Hit your head pretty hard... And just worried... " he tried to explain himself. Really, he just wanted to be close to the man. Whether he was the one he loved or not, it didn't matter. Just the appearance and voice that sounded so much like hers, he could take in. Letting his heart fill with thus twisted joy.
Izaya almost yelped when he was grabbed-really, Shizu-chan could at /least/ learn to control his strenght~! Hrm~? Well...Shizu-chan's immense strenght was bothersome...right? So...why not take advantage of that? Why not use it? Abuse it even! HAHAHAHAHA! All these twisted and evil little thoughts flooded the informant's mind. Yes, yes, YES! He could! He could! And maybe...what if he actually managed to bring this Shizu-chan home~? What then? MORE FUN~! MORE CHAOS~! His lovely humans will /have/ to love him~! "Ahaha...still so brutishly strong I see..." Izaya flinched, holding his arm slightly. "Oh~? Follow me~?" Izaya had already known the answer, but still pulled out one of his /cute face/ thinking poses before shrugging. "Well...I suppose it's not too much trouble. And the thought of Shizu-chan accompanying me of all people makes me feel a little giddy~! Ahahahah~!" he laughed-but he did feel giddy...for /right/ reasons. Oohhh this was going to be one hell of a game~!
Shizuo blinked at the others response and let go. "Ah... Sorry." he apologized and stuff his hands in his pockets, adjusting his tie so it hung loosely, the blonde stared at the other man, hoping for a clear answer. "So... Since ya don't know, like our worlds or whatever might be different, I'll make sure yer safe and stuff..." he explained further. Honey-brown eyes gazed at the others, almost pleadingly.
Izaya stared into those warm, brown orbs...there was something there he'd never seen Shizu-chan have-well, never when he looked at him. It was the kind of look he had around Tom or Kadota...or Yuhei-kun...hrmph. Well...that was slightly uncomfortable~...But aaaah, most new things are! And whenever there was something new or unusual, some good fun is in the future to be had~! So he went with it and grinned. "Awwhh...are you going yo follow me around like some lost little puppy~?" he patted the other's head on tiptoe thanks to the fifteen centimeter difference-which, although he'd never say, annoyed him. He laughed and shrugged again. "Alright. I'll let you~..." he said as if it was nothing-but really, it was all part of his evil little plan. Most would think Izaya plans ahead faaaar beyond their knowledge, but really, at times like these he adjusted his plans to the situation. Why? Well, obviously because when you always change things in your favor, you always win~! Why, just this morning, coming to another city exactly like his was a complete and utter pain-a tragedy almost. But now, it was going to become one of his most exciting little games~! Possibly the best so far, in fact~! AHAHAHAHAH~! This was good, so good~! Izaya smiled cheerfully and deviously as he turned, exiting the tiny-and somewhat stuffy room, walking down the hall he knew so well despite this being another world. "Aaaah...well, at least Riara hasn't changed~! Or well...it /is/ only Raira now I suppose...I do miss Raijin~...Our uniforms were so much more...classy~..." He said, thinking back to that blood red shirt and old button up gakuran uniform Japan hardly had any use for anymore. What was the point of the second button myth now~? Aaaah, it wasn't like he-aha...ahahaha! Oh yes~! He had tried to give it to Shizu-chan as a joke~! Aaaah, good times, good times~! Izaya walked with his hands deep in his pockets, not bothering to check if Shizu-chan had followed...
Shizuo, a little bit startled that the other man agreed to let him follow, stood there for a moment, watching as the raven exited. Not until his regrettably slow mind registered that Izaya had left him and moved ahead, did Shizuo turn on his heel and ran after him. "H- Hey!" he stammered the call, trying to get the other to slow down. 'Damn! He's as quick on as he feet like my Izay...ya...' When the blonde was able to be able to stand next to the raven without any speed complaints, the other stuffed his hands in his pockets and stared at the crimson eyes, seemingly overjoyed with whoknowswhat kind of thoughts. And if he knew his girlfriend any better, and he this man acted, the two and two didn't add up all too well... "Hey. Er... Izaya-cha-... Izaya-kun. What do you plan to do... After you somehow get back to your own world?" he asked curiously.
Izaya blinked and looked at the other with a smile. "Ah~? Well, first thing's first, I need to make sure little Kanra's still at home. She's got quite the knack for sneaking out even when I tell her not to~! Ahahaha...really, she's an adorable little surprise~..." he said-really, Kanra /was/ a surprise. In fact, Izaya was still a virgin-not that he cared. Little Kanra just well...appeared, one day. Just POOF! AHAHAHAHAH! Much like his other two spawns, Hibi-tan and Saike-chan...aaah, but not too much into that... "But really Shizu-chan, I don't see how it concerns you much since well~..." Now it was time to try a little hook. "As soon as I do get back, all this'll be over and you'll be back to throwing trash cans and trucks and at me~!" he said, anticipating the other's reaction to be a depressed one. "Oh, and not to mention the whole "I'LL FUCKING KILL YOU YOU MOTHERFUCKING GODDAMNED FUCKING FLEA! FUCKING DIEEE! AHAHAHAHAHA~...whyyy, I can't tell you how much I /miss/ that~!" Izaya sounded sarcastic-but aaah, who really knew /when/ he really was and wasn't being so? Nobody! Exactly! Teehee~! But that was good, goood! He wanted to see that the other would do. Shrugging, Izaya looked as if this being stuck in another dimension was a tiny, insignificant, minor dilemma. When really, any normal human being would've lost their mind and flipped a biscuit by now.
Shizuo stared at the other for quite some time. Looking to him, then to his feet, thinking of what he said... When really... This was ridiculous! Seriously? Him? Toss those kind of things? Ha! The blonde broke out in sudden laughter, clenching his stomach and stopping his tracks as his laughter echoed around the two. This was stupid. Why would he believe this guy anyways? Another dimension, some kid named Kanra, him harming a man who looked exactly like his deceased girlfriend! It all couldn't be true! The more he thought about it, the more realization hit him. It hurt worse than ever to his heart. He couldn't believe, at a hopes recognition and a hurtful recognition, that he thought this man could help replace the void that had been left in his heart after those so many years. The worse yet, is that he /tried/ to replace her. By another, someone who wasn't her. It sickened him, but the blonde laughed and laughed, till tears swelled to the corners of his eye lids. He had probably been laughing for more than two to three minutes before it died down to a low chuckle. He hated himself, he hated for thinking the possibility that he actually thought he could love another (a man in the least) and even thinking, just by staying by this 'other worldly' man's side, the hurt from letting her die, would subside. But, yet he smiled, he smiled more than he had ever done in the years the woman with the same name as the man next to him died. It relieved him. It made him understand, he really was just as terrible as a person as this other Izaya explained for his 'Shizuo'. "Ahaha... Haha... Heh... Sorry... Sorry man." he apologized, wiping the little tears on his eye lids with the bottom of his palms. "You're just spilling shit aren't you? Taking Izaya's name, dressing and appearing like her, a similar life, and this whole other world shit... Why are ya doing it? Ya know. I had a good laugh. But this is getting old. I don't why I believed you at first, but I guess I am this protozoan brain guy you said I am." he continued with a grin, a true smile. It was probably one of the most saddest, but happiest realizations of his lifetime. "Sorry, I just can't believe you man. Anyone could fake being her, just another prank, or actually, meeting you kinda made me happy ya know. Gave me hope you might have been her, or whatever. But it was a huge mistake. I don't think I need to follow ya much further, since it seems ya know this place upwards and backwards and all. You'll be fine... Right? Those knife skills on my shirt did me good, so you should be fine I guess." Shizuo said and stuffed his hands in his pockets. His chest hurt, the conflicted emotions in felt in the past few minutes flooded his brain with thoughts and confusion, questions and unfulfilled answers. This joke was just getting out of hand and he couldn't deal with that kind of emotion very long, before he felt he was going to break into little pieces.
Izaya had stopped and turned to watch the other laugh with slightly widened eyes-what the...Oh. Oh~! PFFFT-...Shizu-chan thought this was all a joke~! How cute~! Aaaaah, as if. Really, Izaya shrugged and smiled. "It's not really in my care whether you believe me or not, Shizu-chan..." Izaya chuckled watched the other. "Really, I don't beleive you'll be much fun for me anyways...so torn up and alone like that~...Aaaah, Shizu-chan should be heartless and strong and hateful an-" A little sound, like that of a bright light opening up happened. Right under Izaya's foot. Aaaah...how annoying. Just when things were getting good! His foot was the first thing to go as he fell backwards-Izaya would hate himself for this later, but his face was one of complete and pure shock as everything seemed to happen in slow motion. But his first thought was-and he could hardly believe it was something as unintelligent and primitive as this...'OH FUCK.' He stopped it mid-speech as he fell too, staring wide-eyed at the blonde.
The blonde felt a sharp pinch on his heart as the other replied. He wasn't alone... Yeah... Maybe at his house. But he did have friends, he had a life, he... He had something. Something... But, in reality, he lost it in the accident. "Wait. All I'm trying to say is-" Shizuo started till he noticed the raven had started leaning to the side and drifting downwards. Shizuo's expression must have look comical, because he jaw had clenched tightly but his eyes looked as if the were to pop out of his head. Now, it wasn't the fact that the man was falling down straight, when even though there was sidewalk under them, but it was the expression of shock on the others face. No! He wasn't going to lose another! Not this time! Jumping to towards the man, out of instinct, Shizuo grabbed Izaya's arm, reaching out and clinging himself to a nearby pole. "W- WHAT THE HELL? YOU CAN'T GO!" he shouted at the other, feeling a somewhat suction come from the lighting mass under the other man. "I LOST YOU ONCE! NOT AGAIN!" he shouted, shutting his eyes, seeing the same look his girlfriend did before the cars lights rammed into the two. The shock of it and realizing, it was something too late. Something that she didn't anticipate, and neither did he.
Izaya cried out as he was grabbed-/damnit/ Shizu-chan! Again with that bone-crushing strength of yours! Izaya flinched and looked down into the light-ahh! "Kanra! Kanra-chan!" he yelled-the sweet plump face of his little spawn (for she really wasnt his daughter) laughing and clapping her hands. She cried, 'Daddy desu desu! Daddy desu desu!' It was then Izaya's brain started ticking. Oblivious to the fact that he and Shizu-chan were going to be either sucked in or spat out-each option with two completely different outcomes he'd love to try (and felt it was a shame he couldn't work both out), he went quiet. Again, in that devious little world of his own where his hands controlled fate and he merely needed to decide the next step. He knew a little of how they worked now-a little. But it was enough to make him feel a little more in control of the situation than he was before. Good, good! First-if they both got sucked in, it was a matter of figuring out how these things worked from the dimension in which he was almost king over the city. Which really, wasn't a challenge, so it might've not been as much fun from that end-but it would be fun to see his Shizu-chan again /and/ have an extra bonus of /this/ Shizu-chan there too~! The thought was enough to make Izaya grin evilly even as he felt the light demanding his being-though it may not have been so strong to Shizu-chan, Izaya's normal (meaning un-monstrous body-heehee) body felt the full blow. It was a good thing he was facing away from Shizu-chan right now, because he'd suspect something if he saw the look on Izaya's face. Second-if he wasn't sucked in and remained here (since really, Shizu-chan had the capability of not letting go...which was actually starting to really hurt his arm right now...)), he'd be able to play around with the strings of the other's heart for as long as he wanted~! Oh goody, goody~! AHAHAHA! Well...at least until he could figure out how the portals worked from /this/ dimension...with limited resources and his connections around Ikebukuro suddenly gone, it was a difficult task indeed. But...it could be fun. A challenge meant an adventure, right~? AHAHAHHA! So...why not, WHY NOT? Well...whatever happened...Izaya would win...Win, WIN~! Hrm...if this world's Izaya /used/ to be an informant too...then maybe, there was a chance of him doing a little re-opening of that one's 'business'. Izaya knew where he would keep information in case anything happened to him. That is, if this world's Izaya had an apartment, it wouldn't be a problem. Now that was a question to ask...so that would be his first step if this were to happen. Izaya decided it all in a matter of seconds.
Shizuos eyes turned to slits as he peered slowly down the hole. He saw the little girl. He knew the man had a home for him to get to, but he couldn't let go! He wouldn't! How could he let go of someone who looked so much like his love! Not again! Not fucking again! The blonde's grip sort of tightened, feeling the suction from the hole strengthen. "Damn it! This is your choice! Just don't leave me! Izaya!" he shouted at the other. He could feel his heart pounding in his ears, his grip being forcefully loosed. It was now or never. All he wanted, all his heart yearned for was the other. Whether it be her or not, he wanted to stay by the mans side. Clenching his teeth, shutting his eyes tightly, and taking in a shaking breath, Shizuo waited for the others answer, feeling the pole he had dent in his grasp to hold on.
And just like that, the light vanished. What came next was rather unpleasant-"ITAI!" Izaya whined as they landed on the ground with a thud, the suction from the portal suddenly disappearing. Hrmph~ What an uncanny way to travel anyways~...Izaya curled up almost instinctively. Maaaah...maybe that blow to the head the first time wasn't so light...ahahaha~ He was really starting to get dizzy now~! Ahhh well, at least he knew the next step in his little chess game he'd be taking~! And that's all that mattered~! Now...Izaya thought, shaking his head and sitting up-ehh...you're joking~...the brute still clung to him like some child~! Ahahaha! This could be easier than he thought~! And if not, well that meant he just had to try another way-which was not much trouble to the informant, he loved little games that were complicated~! All the more since none of this made sense~! Aaaah, it was like his favorite little twisted fucked up chess game back home~ "Shizu-chan~...you can let go now~..." he said chuckling and sighing. Aaah, his head was sor-ehh...where'd the bandage go? Aaaah...how annoying. Hrmph...why did Shizu-chan have to insinuate such a retarded question~? It was unpleasant and had too many emotions attached~! Well...for a monster like him anyway...it was almost human~! Ahahaha...Izaya rubbed his bleeding again head and laughed a little more. he never even realized he had missed such a touchy question.
Shizuo heart raced when he felt the suction disappear into oblivion. Then he couldn't help but let out a shocked yell when he felt himself hit hard ground. "Shit..." the blonde cursed. Looking around he noticed, he just wasn't in the streets any longer. "The hell...?" Shizuo started till he heard a certain raven break his confused thought."Huh?" he questioned and looked in front of him. The blondes arms had wrapped quite peculiarly around Izayas waist, holding on tightly. Out of shock, Shizuo let go and fell backwards. "Sorry!" he apologized and breathed slowly in and out. "Where... Where the hell is this?" Shizuo glanced down at his hands and frowned. Bits of metal from the pole had sunk through his hands, making his palms bleed quite a lot. That was not good."Dammit..."
