Blood In The End
Kiss in the dark
He hated his boss more then anything, and the knowledge the man or woman had on him and his love for his family was insane. One little mess up and the boss has Kyu's own father after him about something he had done in the past. It was crazy. The insane boss almost had his hands on his little brother, until he gave him the nickname 'Kyuubi' to protect him from harm and made sure his little brother used a voice changer for these heists. He allowed his little brother to tag along and do the driving, not their own car though. They used a dead man's car.
Kyu tried to gently push Itachi away and when he was far enough away he quickly pulled away completely. He wiped his mouth, and the moment he pulled away Itachi realized what he had done. Kyu was only glad that the stoic Uchiha didn't make much of a scene about it. Kyu grabbed the icing and moved a shelf and pulled away some ply wood that blocked a rather large hole in the wall. Unfortunately it tipped a flour bag and exploded on the floor around them, the wall was now open to the bedroom with the windows, thankfully, opened. Kyu stepped back and watched Itachi run out and open a window. 'Remind me to never play 7 minutes in heaven with him. Oh, wait! I already did!' Kyu shook his head stepping out of the small hole and placed the shelf back where it was and moved the ply wood to its original spot.
"So-" Kyu was cut off.
"Don't you dare."
"Aw, was it-"
"I'm warning you!"
"That-"
"Don't make me arrest you!"
"Da-"
"Hn."
"ngerous?"
"What?"
"The story you were telling me before we got locked in the pantry. You were saying something about going after an armed robber that shot at you a few times." Kyu said and walked to the door leading from the room. Sure enough his friends were there. He may as well cover for the poor guy, but it wasn't something he was comfortable with. He can tolerate a kiss from a guy, but in a place like this, it was a gold mine for his friends to tease him with.
"I shouldn't have told you that story in the first place!" Itachi said.
"Let me guess, it was classified. Plus I'm that trustworthy and you let your guard down and told me part of the story. So did you catch him?" Itachi was quiet, and Kyu understood that he didn't want to talk. "Well damn, nothing like ruining a fun story with silence. I mean your leaving it with a cliffhanger you know! Oh here, Hidan." Kyu tossed the icing to Hidan who had a grin on his face.
"Heh, seemed like you were talking about more then a robbery. What were you about to say before you were cut off?" Itachi froze when Hidan said this.
"Ah, that. Well at least we weren't stuck there all night. Huh, Just Itachi? Right before you covered my mouth with your hand and told me to shut up." Kyu said with a smile. Hidan didn't seem that interested anymore and walked away. Same with the others as they walked downstairs. Kyu made sure that they were gone and went to Itachi. "Hey-"
"Not. A. Word."
"Kyu!" a sickly sweet sounding voice rang through the air, and Kyu instantly froze. "Kyu! My sweet where are you?"
"Sakura. . ." Kyu said quietly. He turned to Itachi, "Small house I'm sure your bored of it by now! So see ya later and- uhm bye!" Kyu ran to the wall as quickly as he could.
"Kyu! Oh! Hello, my name is Haruno Sakura."
"Hn." Kyu listened and heard footsteps walking away. Another pair followed after the other. Kyu waited there for awhile until he heard a few knocks on the door, then it opened.
"It's okay, Kyu. She's gone. You know you need to stop dating these crazy women. Honestly they are fucking crazy!" Hidan said and the two walked down stairs. Kyu saw no sign of Itachi and figured that he had left. "One more thing, stop bringing them here! Those women drive us crazy by the mere sight of them. And not the good kind either!"
"Sorry. . . and for the record I didn't bring them here, they followed me." Kyu said and walked to the kitchen. 'They are more determined then the police, and these women are better trackers for it too. I weave my way through town and loose them as best as I could and yet they still manage to find me.' he thought and nearly froze when he saw that Itachi was sitting at the table laughing with Kiba, Zetsu, Kakuzu, and Pein. "Hidan. . ."
"No you're not dead. Sakura didn't kill you, and I find it more weird then you do. Can you believe it? Pein can actually laugh! FUCKING LAUGH!" Hidan said and walked past then. Kyu wasn't aware of Pein at all, he was more concerned to why Itachi was here and laughing.
"Kyu! Come join us. Itachi was just talking about the flour incident." Pein said a smile on his face. Kyu smiled back.
"Yeah? Well I'm still wondering about the robber story he was telling me earlier." Kyu said and sat down next to Kiba, keeping a far enough distance from Itachi and Pein.
"Not important. Besides I'm alive aren't I? So we got locked in the pantry and Kyu was looking through the shelves for the icing. He bumped into one of the shelves and this giant bag of flour falls and I get half dusted! Now we are there coughing while Kyu looked for a way out! When he finally did we ran out and stuck our heads out the window. I thought I was going to fall out!" laughter erupted.
"Yeah, and I was going to let you! Hell I would have pushed you out myself!"
"Oh you'd like that, huh? Then I won't tell you the rest of the story." Itachi said.
"How dare you!" Kyu said, Itachi was going to say more until his cell rang.
"Ah, excuse me I gotta take this. Itachi speaking." Itachi's face went from a smiling idiot to a serious look. "I'm on my way." he hung up the phone and got up, "Well it was fun chatting will you all, have a good day." With that he walked out and Kyu hoped he wouldn't see him again.
Kyu worked around the fire house a while longer until Pein told him to go home. He walked down the streets in the cooling evening air, it always seems so quiet, so quiet it made him draw back into his mind and look at his whole day again. He walked up to his steps and stood there for a few moments before walking into his two story home. He seen his little brother sitting at the couch playing some game on the latest game system. "I'm home," Kyu said as he set his things by the door.
"Welcome home, Nii-chan!" his younger brother called.
"What have you been up to, Naruto?" Kyu asked as he started to make himself a sandwich.
"I aced my test this week, so it was a pretty good week so far. I've finished my studies for tonight and I'm just enjoying my downtime. No! I had a good streak! What do you mean I should pay attention! Oh, your in for it now!" Naruto said, Kyu guessed that he was playing Ancient Ninja Conquest online.
"Free or Team?" Kyu asked as he looked at the T.V. screen.
"Free. Team 7 are all offline." Naruto said simply as he continued to reek havoc online.
"Have fun, good night." Kyu said and walked up to his room.
"Talk to you in the morning, Nii-chan!" Naruto called and focused on his game. Kyu walked to his bed and flopped down exhausted.
Morning never happened, because when Kyu woke up it was 2 in the afternoon. He was only glad that he got two days off. He got up and made himself something quick to eat while he booted up the AES, Assassin Entertainment System. He could only guess that it was updating, and took his time. Naruto always said no to an update, even on the games. It was annoying at times but it did give him time to eat and gather a few things. Once he was finished eating he grabbed a fresh pair of batteries and put the dead case in it's charger. He turned the controller on and signed in as 'Q.B. 9' he seen that he had unread messages and new ones were coming in. He put on the headset and turned it on, and accepted a voice chat from one of his friends.
"Q.B. about time you get online! What were you doing?"
"Sleeping the whole morning away, Yon.B." Kyu said and got into a game that Yon.B. invited him to.
"Nice, day off?"
"Oh yeah, I plan to enjoy it. So where's the rest of the 'Tailed Beast's'?"
"Offline having a life."
"Boring!"
"I know! Hey you hear about Ichi.B?"
"Yeah, he joined Team 7. The traitor!"
"Same with Killer.B."
"No, I loved his raps. He's more entertaining then the rest of us put together."
"No, he's as entertaining as the rest of us put together."
"Oh, insulting yourself are we?" Kyu laughed. It was two hours later before Naruto came home and tried to boot his brother off of Ancient Conquest.
"Yon.B, I gotta go. One of Team 7's member's just came home."
"Damn! Alright, see you after Q.B."
"Talk to you later, Yon.B." Kyu signed out and took the nearly dying batteries out of the controller and put the charged case in and handed it to Naruto. Kyu walked into the kitchen and started work on supper.
"Hey, Naruto!" Kyu looked around and decided that he was hearing voices in his head.
"Oh no. I've finally lost my mind." Kyu said and went back to work on supper.
"Q.B?"
"What?" Kyu was now confused.
"Q.B! Wait what are you doing on Naruto's profile?"
"Naruto's profile? Oh the headset! So I'm not insane yet, ha! So what have you been up to Ichi.B?" Kyu said as he started chopping up the vegetables.
"Not much, how are the other 'Tailed Beast's'?" Ichi.B said.
"Well, I recently heard that Killer.B has joined Team7, same with you. Why did you two leave anyways?" Kyu asked.
"Ju.B said that we had to go under your command."
"What? Ju.B said this?"
"Yeah, we thought you knew. He's been running Tailed Beasts while you were away. Saying that you put him in charge."
"What? I would never kick anyone out."
"He forcefully kicked us out and left a message saying that he was sorry but we weren't good enough."
"That son of a-"
"Hey! Give me that!" Naruto tried to make a grab for the headset.
"Just a sec, Naruto. I'm talking to Gaara."
"He has nothing to say to you!"
"Really? He said plenty. Starting tomorrow Ju.B is out of the Tailed Beast's."
"Uh?" Naruto was now confused.
"Well, I don't think me and Killer.B will be joining back with the Tailed Beast's. We became good friends with Naruto."
"I wouldn't expect to see you back anyways, Gaara. Tailed Beast's can survive without you or Killer.B so you two are off on your own free will. Have fun on Team 7 you two."
"Thanks, Q.B" Gaara said sounding relieved.
"Thanks, Q.B, yo" Killer.B said making himself known. Naruto took the headset and ran off with them as he started chatting to them. During supper Naruto started talking of how he aced all of his tests, and that he done his studying at the library, as well as finishing his homework there too. Kyu didn't question why Naruto got on the game as soon as he got home, for all Kyu knew Naruto wasn't acing his tests, and left his homework at school. It didn't bother him, Kyu knew that Naruto was already a good student. But he would have to get after Naruto for finals, and that wasn't an easy task. Kyu listened to his brother talk of his day and about Sasuke. Naruto claims that they don't get along well, but the way he talks about him it's like they were best friends. Kyu always liked hearing about him, it puts him at ease knowing that Naruto has a friend. Unlike him. Soon the two retired for the night, well Kyu did, Naruto went back to play his game.
The next morning he tried his best to sleep in, but found it difficult and got up. As he walked down the stairs of the two story house his cell started ringing. "Seven thirty, already?" Kyu said softly, Naruto had left a while ago, so he as free to do what ever he wanted. He made himself something light to eat as he checked his phone. He had a specific time for his cell phone, in the morning at 7:30am only text messages were allowed, and were immediately answered. Phone calls were dwelt with in the afternoon or until he wakes up fully. He hated talking as soon as he got up, and it seems that he is always bothered in the morning. Kyu gave a soft sigh, answering a few messages from his friends, colleagues, and even one from Naruto.
'Kyu, let's go out to eat.' Naruto wrote.
'Fine, I don't feel like cooking anyways.' Kyu answered.
'Kyu, sweetheart answer your phone.' an ex-girlfriend text him. He left it alone.
'Party tonight, you on?' a friend asked.
'No, I have other plans.' Kyu replied. He answered a few more like them, and he was soon done going through the messages and deleting a few others. He relaxed in the silence of the house for a few moments before his cell would go off again for a new round of messages. He looked through them some of them he didn't bother answering. Soon everything was in silence once more, he decided to go out and got ready to leave. Slipping on some light blue jeans, a dark red shirt and a denim jacket. He ran a brush through his long straight red hair and put it in a ponytail and made sure that it wasn't showing. His bangs hung loosely and he put in some contacts that also acted as sunglasses, of course they turned his pale green eyes a darker shade but he didn't mind it. He stepped out of the house and seen a box wrapped in brown paper. "Great," Kyu sighed and walked back in and put on a pair of gloves. He stepped back out and picked up the box and set it on the dining room table. He carefully opened the box and seen some things in it. He took out the piece of paper with a message written on it. "Lovely. Now how am I going to pull this one off?" he questioned himself and put the paper back in the box and brought it to his room and slid it under his bed. "Well it's a good thing I'm given time on how to work it through. But it looked different then normal, hm. . ." he walked out tossing the gloves aside and walked out his front door. He locked up his home and started his walk. "Kinda wished I had a car. . . Oh well, keep myself in shape anyways." He said and started reflecting on his previous heists.
