I do not own Junjou Romantica

In a hidden laboratory deep within the woods...

"Dr. Clive, Test Subject No. 001 and No. 002 did not meet today's quota." reported a portly scientist wearing a blinding white lab suit. Dr. Clive was reading data charts on a clipboard before turning to look at the man in distaste. 'Sigh, I just have to work with these imbeciles. Can't they solve this problem on their own?' he thought tiredly before faking a smile.

"Well then, I suppose we have to check up on them." Dr. Clive said with mock cheerfulness.

Later…

"Bang!"

A body of a man hit the white walls of the contained holding cell.

"Nii-san!" cried a chocolate haired boy in distress, coming to his brother's side.

"My, my," chuckled Dr. Clive amusedly "Pray tell me: why are you not meeting your quotas? You know that you're both an indispensable part of this project we're working on."

The injured man glared ferociously at Dr. Clive before replying "Do you think that we are here of our own free will? Misaki and I never agreed to work with you! Besides, you and your lackeys can't force us to do anything!"

Dr. Clive was completely unfazed. The portly man behind him was trembling nervously.

"Hey you."

The man flinched, big droplets of sweat trailing down his face. "Y-yes Dr. Clive?"

"Leave."

"B-but It's against protocol – "

Dr. Clive snapped "Do you think I care about procedures now? I am the one leading this experiment, so you should listen to me before something utterly bad happens to you."

The poor man ran away as fast as his legs could carry him.

"It's only misfortunate that there are such dim-witted people working at this place." sighed Dr. Clive before focusing his attention to the two people clinging to each other on the opposite wall.

Then walking towards them smoothly, he suddenly grabbed Misaki, pulling him away from his brother and pressing a switchblade (hidden in one of his lab coat pockets) to his throat.

"Misaki!" cried the older brother.

"Tut, tut, it's such a pity." started Dr. Clive "Do you know that the life of your precious Misaki is hanging on your actions, Test Subject No. 002 – or should I say Takahiro?"

The blade was making beads of blood appear on Misaki's neck.

"Nii-san…" whispered Misaki helplessly

Takahiro widened his eyes before hanging his head in defeat, bangs covering his eyes.

"Please don't hurt Misaki. I will…" Takahiro pleaded quietly, "I will make sure to always meet the quotas from now on."

Dr. Clive smiled sweetly while he removed the switchblade and threw Misaki to Takahiro in one fluid motion. "That's wonderful. I always knew that you would be sensible enough to make the right choice. Now, how about you both start now?"

Misaki could only look at Takahiro, who nodded to him. Then Misaki began to cry, the liquid water falling from his cheeks to the linoleum floor. However, when the tear droplets touched the ground, they turned into sparking diamond crystals. Both Misaki and Takahiro had this cursed ability. The ability to turn their tears into pure clear diamonds once the droplets touch the ground. Misaki had always wondered how their life would have been if only they were born as normal children. 'Would we be here still? Would my brother and I live happily? Would we still have our parents?' All these questions revolved around Misaki's head as he cried. He cried not only for himself, but also for the unfairness of this situation. For his brother, for the life that they were never to have, and for the dreams that would never come true.

Meanwhile, Dr. Clive was watching the scene with evident pleasure. 'This is the source of our funds. With these two, I don't have to worry about the cost of my research.' He smirked to himself 'Finally, my years of toil will bear fruit when I have found the source of eternal life!'

When Misaki and Takahiro had created a big pile of large diamonds that satisfied him, Dr. Clive scooped up all the diamonds into a sack (that was also in one of his lab pockets).

"My business here is done. Takahiro, make sure you meet your quotas from now on, or else." The doors of the holding cell closed behind Dr. Clive, leaving Misaki and Takahiro alone with each other.

"I'm so sorry Nii-san. If only I worked harder you wouldn't have been –"

"Shhhh, it's okay. Have hope! I have a plan to escape from this horrible place." said Takahiro reassuringly.

Misaki looked incredulous. "Nii-san, we are going to escape?"

"Yes! I was able to contact a very dear friend of mine from long ago…"

While Takahiro explained his escape plan, thinking that they were alone, never did they notice a hidden third party – watching and listening to their plans with a smile – through a camera on a corner of the room.

Ohhhhh! Tension rising! What's going to happen next? Yes, yes I know, this story is kinda dark at the beginning, but it will get better! Please R&R and tell me your thoughts!
