This is not my first ever fan-fic. It took me about few years (?) to write a proper story.

This is a story about Hisoka and Tsuzuki, working on their latest mission-to retrieve a prisoner on the loose, and it was a girl. Tsuzuki didn't think that a young innocent girl could commit any crime but Hisoka did think anybody was capable of doing any crime if they had the chance….well, things didn't go easy on those two, right? Just when they thought things was going to end, something beyond logical and nature's law defying happened…

ENJOY!

CHAPTER 1: THE GAME IS ON

The sun's rays highlighted into Tsuzuki's bedroom window. He didn't pull down the curtain last night before going to sleep. The melody of the singing bird echoed in the morning delight. Morning breeze was…well, smelled spring.

The violet-eyed immortal opened his eyes just to see Hisoka standing at the end of his bed, hands akimbo. "Ohayo, Hisoka…" he greeted his golden emerald-eyed partner sleepily. Hisoka's eyebrow twitched.

"GOOD MORNING YOURSELF! DO YOU KNOW IT'S 11AM AND YOU JUST MISSED OUR MEETING WHICH SHOULD BE HELD AT 9AM? I MEAN, ARE A TWELVE? YOU SURELY DON'T NEED TWELVE HOURS OF SLEEPING BECAUSE YOU'RE AN ADULT, FOR GOD'S SAKE, TSUZUKIII!" the walls shook with a Richter scale of 6.9.

Tsuzuki jumped out of his bed and made his way to the bathroom. He shut the door and locked it, afraid the Hisoka might barge his was in angrily. Phew, did he mean I missed the meeting? He sighed. Damn, Tatsumi must be so angry that he'll cut our allowance. Urgh, I'm so disappointed of you, Tsuzuki, he mocked himself. Then suddenly, there was a soft knock on the door. "Tsuzuki, Konoe-kacho agreed to postponed the meeting at 1p.m. after lunch," Hisoka said from the other side of the door.

The door slowly opened. Tsuzuki already dressed up stepped out. "Ne, Hisoka. I'm sorry I didn't come…" he said but cut in by the boy. "Ma, it can't be helped. You're always like this. I can't do anything about it. But next time, use a timer called an alarm clock, okay?" Hisoka remind him. The brunette smiled. He knew he was forgiven. They both left the building in 10 minutes and were on their way to Meifu.

"Man, you sure have a temper on and old man, Hisoka," Tsuzuki teased him. The boy gazed at him. "Don't you start."

A blond devil caught sight of them and started to wave. "Ohayo, minna-san…or should I say konnichiwa? Oh well, it's good to know you both finally come. Tatsumi wanted to end this matter quickly so we'll going to discuss about it during lunch," Watari told them as he jumped around. Tsuzuki and Hisoka stared at him. "What are you so happy about, Watari-san?" Hisoka asked.

The blond stopped jumping and turned to them in 0.3 seconds. "Glad you asked, Bon! Tada!" Watari took out a small bottle containing an unidentified pink liquid. The moment passed. "Come on, ask me what it is," he pleaded at them. "Then, what is that horrible looking thing?" Tsuzuki took the honour of displeasing the poor desperate chemist. "Mou, hidoii ne, Tsuzuki-san. It's what I call as Trance! Well, ask me what's it for?" he said dancing around. "Well, what's it do, Watari-san? A new type of liquor that made someone to make a fool out of himself?" Hisoka's eyebrows twitched.

"Aha! Bad guess, smart-mouthed. It's a potion that'll give you a dream that you always wanted. Just drink this before you go to sleep and construct a base line of you dream and you'll dream it! Isn't it amazing! I don't know I'm such a genius!" the blond then left them and danced his way through the meeting room. Hisoka and Tsuzuki were totally speechless. Hisoka sighed. "I guess we'd better be going, too." The brunette chuckled as he remembered how happy Watari was.

"Nice to know you could make it this time, Tsuzuki-san," Tatsumi glared at him in his usual time-is-money look. "Ah…sumimasen, Tatsumi-san," that was all he could say as he took his seat next to his little partner.

The secretary turned on the projector. "You two must be thankful because this is the first case for both of you for 3 months. You might get a raise in your allowance," he told them. "Really?" Tsuzuki almost jumped out of his chair when Hisoka coughed.

Pictures of an empty cell were shown to them. "Yes, this is Sakura Confining Centre, where all the souls who were about to go to trial wait. However, as you must notice, there was a cell unoccupied. This young girl," Tatsumi pressed the next slide, showing a picture of a young girl. Her hair was dark brown, almost maroon. Her eyes were blue and she looked just like anybody else.

"Her name is Nakamaru Maki, 18. She broke out of the centre." A sigh escaped from their lips. "Without damaging the cell room itself. The investigation team didn't find any trace of escape routes nor any spells or witchcraft rituals. This indeed is a mystery. However, this is not the headquarters want you to find out. The both of you must find and bring her back alive. Is that clear?" Konoe-kacho told them as he stood up.

Tsuzuki raised his hand. "Kacho-san, what did she do to make herself got into the centre in the first place?" he asked. Kacho looked at him. "You'll find out sooner or later." He then stepped out. "Tsuzuki-san, Hisoka-san. I want you to be aware that there's no document citing her powers or ability. It's very rare for an inmate to have so little to be written about her. Just be careful," Tatsumi remind them. "Sure," Tsuzuki and Hisoka left the room. Watari tailed them from behind. "You guys want to borrow my Trance potion for this mission? It might come in handy…"

"NO, WATARI!" The duo screamed simultaneously. Watari's eyes began to water. "You guys don't have to scream that loud…"
