A/N: I like love all of you so much right now, even though I only got two reviews it made me so happy to get them so those of you who like this FF here is chapter two.
Summary: Ludwig has a boring semi-average life working as a scientist in the government's top secret laboratories. But one day his routine life is thrown off when a young boy with semi translucent wings is brought in, in a wooden tomato crate. Ludwig finds himself falling for him, but what happens when a scientist falls for his test subject?
There are three rules you must follow 1.)Never speak about what goes on here. 2.) Never take anything in or out of here and lastly the most important 3.)No matter what it looks like or what it is; never fall in love with you test subject.

Chapter 2: Special assignment
Ludwig sighed as he finally finished identifying the blood and tissue samples, he looked around at the others; they seemed to be struggling with their assignments. Ludwig turned back and finished writing down the sample name and other details in the lab book, he closed it up and started to clean up and put the experimented samples away; it was already three o' clock and other scientists slowly started to leave the laboratory for lunch. Ludwig stayed back as he cleaned up, it seemed the other scientists didn't really care about cleaning up their workstations or that they might create an unstoppable virus by leaving chemicals open and leaving others mixed together for too long.
"Ludwig you really have OCD or something, you should leave those messes for the others to clean up." Arthur said as he came up behind Ludwig.
"If I don't clean them up then some of the chemicals might mix and create something that we won't be able to contain." Ludwig responded without missing a beat, he dumped a load of dirty beakers into the sink and started washing. England went over and sat on the counter next to the sink.
"If something were to happen and a new whatever was created we wouldn't have to worry-" England grabbed a scalpel and threw it into the air, he quickly caught it before it hit the ground."-Because we all know that big, strong, smart Ludwig will be there to find out what it is and find a cure for it." England said as he slashed the air with the scalpel and then slashed really close to Ludwig. "Isn't that right, Ludwig-" Ludwig always hated how his name sounded when Arthur said it; the annoying, nasally accent made his name sound horrible; but he didn't say anything as he continued to wash the beakers and so Arthur continued to talk. "-Everyone looks up to you as if you were their savior and only hope. Oh Ludwig our savior." Arthur leaned back and held a hand to his forehead as he posed like a cheesy fainting actress.
Ludwig glanced over and saw the metal flask in the English man's hand, he turned back to the sink; Arthur was drunk, no wonder he was acting like that; the German man was at least glad that Arthur hadn't start blabbering about not knowing if he was being catholic or protestant. Arthur laughed and almost fell from the counter he sat on; Ludwig finished washing and hung the beakers from the wooden pegs jutting out of the wall.
"Arthur I think you should stop drinking, you're at work, at least have decency for that and also you act stupid when you're drunk, then you end up with a huge hangover and swear you won't drink again but you do, and then the cycle repeats." Ludwig said as he started putting vials of chemicals away. Arthur looked at him and got off the counter, he chugged the rest of the flask before throwing it into the sink. "You're no fun. Well when you finally get laid and stop acting as if you had a stick stuck up your ass; give me a call." And with those last drunk words Arthur walked out the laboratory, Ludwig watch him go and turned back to the chemicals; he thought about what Arthur had said. Was he, Ludwig, really acting like that?
The German put the vials away and grabbed a suitcase, he exited the laboratory and made his way up to the cafeteria; he wasn't really sure what to eat, suddenly he remembered the pancakes that Matthew had given him and softly smiled to himself. He arrived at the cafeteria; the smell reminded Ludwig of high school; sweaty clothes and mystery meat. He walked out onto the large balcony that stuck out of the building, not many people liked eating outside, Ludwig was one of them; but the smell inside was to revolting to be able to eat. He found a quiet spot on a table at the far end of the balcony and opened his suitcase, the white foam box sat there; he took it out and opened it, he was pleasantly surprised to see a set of plastic silverware taped to the inside of the lid. He pulled it off and started eating, and yet again he received another surprise; the pancake had maple syrup baked into it.
'Well Matthew you seemed to be a man of many talents, I hope you and Gilbert a long happy relationship.' Ludwig thought as he kept eating, he finished eating faster than he thought. He threw the box away and decided to head back to the lab, he glanced around and noticed Arthur and Alfred eating together; the British man was arguing with the American boy about burgers and why the boy shouldn't eat so much of them. Ludwig just mentally shrugged at those two and kept walking, suddenly he was grabbed and picked up off the ground; he squirmed around to break loose but who ever had him was strong.
"Finally we found you ~aru." A young man with a short low pony tail said, Ludwig looked over at him and realized it was one of the superiors; Yao Wang.
"Da~ comrade, you've been looking everywhere for you." Ludwig shivered slightly as he turned to see that the person holding him was none other than; Ivan Braginski, Yao's 'friend' and another one of the superiors. Ludwig turned back to Yao but before he could say anything Ivan started walking away. Ludwig closed his mouth as Ivan threw him over his shoulder; Yao just smiled as he followed the tall Russian man, about half way to their office Yao finally spoke. "Ludwig, you are the top of you sector, nobody else but you is able to find cures and mutated genes like you-"
"-So Yao and I have a special assignment for you." Ivan said as he cut in, they arrived at their office and Ludwig was finally put down; he followed his two superiors in as the doors closed behind them and locked, Ludwig felt a little uncomfortable being locked in a room with Yao and Ivan but he kept calm as he looked around. There wasn't much to see, two large desks filled with papers, filing cabinets, a book shelf that took up the whole wall behind the desks and a red velvet love seat.
Ludwig sat down on the loveseat as Ivan went around to the back of one of the desks and pulled out a wooden crate, Ludwig watched him as he slightly struggled and brought the crate a few feet in front of Ludwig then sat on it. "Ludwig you don't seem to believe in the existence of magical or supernatural creatures, we chose you for this because of that and the fact that you are the best we have." Yao spoke, Ludwig turned to him; he had forgotten that Yao was in the room. "You must decided, we you take this assignment or not. We will not pressure you to decide-"Yao pushed a few strange of hair from his face. "-But this assignment is something very important for you, us and the government." Ivan finished Yao's sentence in a serious tone that slightly scared Ludwig.
Ludwig looked at both of them and finally spoke. "I accept this assignment, though I don't know what it is, I don't believe it can be that bad." Ludwig said, Yao smiled and nodded at Ivan, the huge Russian smiled as he got up from the crate. "What you will see is to not be told to anyone Ludwig, you do say anything of this…well, I'll let Ivan take care of that." Yao said as Ivan gave Ludwig a creepy smile and held a metal pipe in his hand, a dark aura seemed to surround him.
"I understand it is something top secret that I am not allowed to speak of." Ludwig said as he kept his voice calm all though Ivan did scare him a little. Yao smiled as Ivan pushed the box closer to Ludwig with his foot, the German man looked at it then back at his superiors before getting up and walking closer to the box.
"While on the assignment you will be working alone in a separate lab in level B3, no one else is allowed to enter the lab and you are forbidden to take anything out of the lab." Yao said.
"Including the assignment which is in the crate, you'll start immediately. Here is your pass card for B3" Ivan said before tossing the pass card to Ludwig. The German man caught it before slipping it into his coat pocket, he looked at the crate again; it had a tomato and a brand on it.
'So my assignment which is top secret and will take over most of my time is in a tomato crate?' Ludwig thought to himself before crouching down slightly and placing his hand on either side of the lid, he felt as if something tingled inside of him as he did but disregarded it; he gripped the lid and pulled it up, it gave a loud crack as it was broken off; pieces of wood fell onto the ground. He craned his neck to look into the box, suddenly something brown and tomato smelling hit his face; Ludwig lose his balance and he fell to the ground, he blink as he felt his face hurting from the hit; he looked up and for the first time in his life he doubted his sanity. A boy that looked around nineteen with brown hair and a strange erected curled hair coming from the left side of his head, and with large expressive amber colored eyes peeked out from inside the box but what really got Ludwig's attention and made his doubt his sanity was a pair of bright red and orange colored semi-translucent wings that rested on the boy's back, they fluttered slightly before he dodged back into the box.
Ludwig got up from the ground and cleaned himself off. "Yao, Ivan; what is that?" He asked calmly thinking it was a joke that the Chinese and Russian man were trying to pull on him. Ivan went over to the box and pulled the boy out, as soon as Ivan touched him he the boy started crying and shaking like a leaf. "Comrade, this is your assignment." Ivan said as he held the both of the boy's wrists in one hand and tugged on the wings. "See the wings are not fake, he's a sprite or as some call it a fairy." Ivan said, Ludwig looked at the kneeling, trembling boy and for just a moment their eyes met; Ludwig didn't believe in magic or anything like that but those eyes, something about them pulled Ludwig in and made his feel his body tingle which strangely wasn't a bad feeling. Suddenly Ludwig noticed the boy was pretty much naked, he pulled off his lab coat and wrapped it around the fairy's waist; Ludwig looked away trying to hide a blush that had seemed to find its way onto his face.
Suddenly the boy's eyes widened, he sharply pulled his wrists out of Ivan's hold and darted to Ludwig, he pulled the German man into a hug as he kept crying but stopped shaking. Ivan and Yao shared a look of confusion and slight surprise, it seemed the boy was one, stronger than he looked and two; it seemed he would get along with Ludwig. The German man felt sick for a moment but it wasn't a nauseous feeling, it was more of something moving in his stomach, the brunette boy didn't seem to notice the blonde's discomfort. "Well Ludwig it looks like he likes you." Yao said smiling. "Well you have your assignment and your pass card what else do you need…oh yeah!" Yao went to one of the filing cabinets and pulled out a red folder, he handed to Ivan.
"Da~ Ludwig will have to do this along with his assignment." The large Russian said as he handed it to Ludwig. "Ludwig better go to b3 before the other's see you." Ludwig nodded as he tried to pry the boy off him but his grip was strong, so with nothing else he could do; he slid an arm under the boy's rump and pulled him up, and with his other arm he held the boy's back right under his wings. The boy went ridged for moment but relaxed and laid his head on Ludwig's shoulder. Yao and Ivan smiled at the strangely sweet action that the usually emotionless and strict German man did and the adorable fairy; Yao went and opened the door for them as they walked out.
"Good luck, Ludwig." China said happily
"Be careful with him." Ivan said from behind the Chinese man, he slipped an arm around Yao's waist.
"And remember Ludwig-" Yao said with a dark aura around him that could rival Ivan's. "-the three main rules of this company." Yao said, Ludwig nodded which made Yao smile again and the aura vanished. Ludwig walked out of the office and headed down to lab B3, he glanced over at the fairy, the boy had his eyes closed and his wings folded down; Ludwig noticed for the first time that one of the fairy's wings was wrapped in bandages, Ludwig touched it carefully and got a painful groan from the boy. He looked so innocent and the German man wondered how Ivan and Yao found him, he quickly found the B3 lab and ducked into it, the doors automatically locked behind them and the lights came on.
The lab looked more like the inside of a house; it had a bed, kitchen, and a bathroom along with the regular lab things. "This is going to be one very long day." He said softly to himself and went to put the boy down but as he did he could have sworn he heard the boy say ~ve.
