Redemption.......part 1
He watched as The blonde approached himself, one blade held in his left hand, while the right reached out to touch him. "You aren't supposed to be here." He whispered, pushing the hand back and raising a gun. "You should have stayed away. Like I told you to." The blonde stopped and lowered his eyes, the blade slipping from his hand, "I had to come for you. You know that." Violet eyes closed in frustration and fear, "No! You don't understand! You CAN'T help me! Not this time! I already know!!" The blonde smiled a sad smile and reached out a hand, closing over one of the boy's shoulders, "No you don't. And you never will."
.................................................
Shuichi woke up for the upteenth time this month, with tears in his eyes and a sob caught in his throat. And again, also for the upteenth time, Yuki wasn't here. The pink haired boy knew Tohma had been important to the taller blonde, but still, Tohma had been dead a month, the kidnappers slipping away, never to be heard from again. And Yuki had not been happy. Shuichi sighed and sat up slowly, his arms encircling his knees as he contemplated whether or not to disturb the blonde writer. Everytime he had, he had been snapped at and locked out, forcing him to go to Hiro's once again, before Yuki grudgingly apologised and let him come back home. It wasn't that Yuki spent all his time searching for more information, Shuichi understood that. It was the fact that Yuki seemed to have forgotten about him, He had forgotten that his own lover was right here and alive, and he missed him. Blinking back tears he stood and tiptoed past the closed door of the study and into the kitchen, maybe some food would help him sleep.
..........................................
"Damn it" The quiet curse interrupted the sound of fingers clacking on the keyboard as the man in front of the screen reached for a cigarette. "Where in Hell did they go?" A fist slammed into the desk as Yuki Eiri pushed back from the desk and stalked into the kitchen, he needed alcohol. Quiet sniffling stopped him in his tracks, the angry expression draining away from his face. Shuichi. Shuichi was in the kitchen, crying. Not knowing what else to do, he turned quietly, and reentered the room he'd just left, shuting the door behind him with a soft click.
........................
Hearing the small sound, the pink haired boy's tears fell harder, and he dropped to his knees, wondering how this had happened.

"Is this a good idea Siamese?" A frustrated growl was the only answer the boy recieved and a grin threatened to break over his young face. "Do you really think you can handle this mission alone? You've only been cleared for two days after all..."
"I think I can handle information recovery mission Bombay, On My Own. Shouldn't you be back with your own team now?" Bombay smiled and looked away from the annoyed blonde, "I guess so. They've been kinda....clingy, lately." The blonde's annoyed look dissapeared and a soft smile replaced it. "They missed you. You are family, even if it doesn't seem like it sometimes. Don't get annoyed with them, they all care for you. Abyssinian almost gutted me when I didn't explain everything right away.Just don't take that love for granted." Bombay turned back to the elder agent his blue eyes wide, "Siamese, I'm sorry. I didn't think.." Tohma Seguchi raised a gloved hand and blue-green eyes met blue, a sad smile on the elder's face, "No, It's okay. I did what I had to."

Ryuichi looked around the dark building of NG Productions sadly. It wasn't the same. He missed recording, he missed the late night sessions, he missed the togetherness of Noriko, Tohma and himself. He missed Tohma. He turned towards the head office, now shared between Sakano, Suguru and K, the three being the only ones holding NG together, The one office that used to be occupied by one of Ryuichi's closest friends. Ryuichi looked at the closed door a moment before he placed a hand against the wood, and jumped back surprised when the door opened silently. The desk lamp was on. Ryuichi frowned at that and quietly snuck into the room, skulking around the walls. He raised Kumagoro in defense and crept closer to the desk, where he could now see someone had crouched behind it, a laptop cord snaking from the desktop PC to the portable on the person's lap. Theives!! Ryichi's mind supplied and he turned to run and get K, the tall blonde no doubt still somewhere within the building. A hand clapped down on his shoulder and Ryuichi screamed, throwing out his elbow, where it was caught by the other, just before Ryuichi kicked out, catching the other unaware, slamming his booted foot into the other's kneecap. "Damn it!" A familar voice cried out and let go of Ryuichi, doubling over to clutch at his knee. Ryuichi stood, frozen in shock at the Blonde haired man standing in front of him. "T-Tohma?"
....................................................^_^
"I'm sorry."
Blue eyes glared and he turned away, fuming. "I know. Why didn't you tell me? We all thought you were dead." He turned back, his eyes sad, "we all thought you were gone." Tohma lowered his eyes, slightly ashamed. "Ryuichi, I can't come back. Not yet. I'm sorry, you weren't supposed to know. No one was." Ryuichi advanced upon the blonde, anger clear in his eyes. "Why can't you tell me?" As Tohma opened his mouth to reply, the sounds of footsteps stopped him cold. "Ryuichi! Please! You can't tell them!" Panic flitted over the blonde's face as Ryuichi stood still, "Tohma," he whispered, "Please tell me." Turning to the door Tohma thought for a moment, biting his lip. "Okay, but you have to promise, no one can know I'm still alive. No One." Ryuichi nodded and Tohma smiled, "I'll come back for you, but I have to go now." Ryuichi nodded again and Tohma pulled him forward in a hug, applying pressure on Ryuichi's neck, enough to knock the younger man out. "Sorry, Ryu-chan" Tohma whispered, dropping the man carefully and gathering up his laptop, tucking the lot into a bag before turning the lamp off and waiting by the window. Had to give the others no reason to suspect Ryuichi after all. The door opened and he turned, knowing only his silhouette could be seen. "Hey! You!" The deep voice of K yelled and Tohma slid out the window, dissappearing into the night.
............................
Tohma was angry. Mainly at himself, of course he should have had the light out, of course he should have been paying attention. But instead, he's been lost in old memories, foolishly thinking he knew his office better than anyone. And that was a mistake. Now he had a possible security threat, and worse, he's put Ryuichi in danger. "Brilliant, you fool. First mission back and you get caught, marvellous. Moron........ I'm getting way too old for this."
