This is WAR! – Chapter 2

AKIHITO

"In other news, police and caretakers are still stunned about the break in at the Tokyo Zoo earlier this night and there are still no leads as to who took the animals other than…"

The TV's noise kept the blond lying on the couch awake as he waited for his lover to arrive. He enjoyed the background noise of the newscast coming from the flat screen TV; it was loud enough to keep him awake but not too loud to be heard all over the penthouse. He needed to stay awake today and wait for Asami.

Akihito looked again at his reflection on the screen of his cell phone and hissed low in anger.

"Fucking Kirishima."

The loud pink would not leave his hair regardless of what he tried, which included bleaching and trying to dye his hair to its natural color, which only served to turn the highlighter pink hair to bubble gum pink… which somehow he thought was even worse… and Asami had not even seen it yet which would add to his anger when the man finally did. He was sure of it.

As if summoned by some kind of supernatural power, the aforementioned man entered the penthouse and took off his loafers at the genkan, still not looking at his lounging lover. The taller man set his briefcase and keys at a low table near the entrance of the living room and walked into the room, checking his beeping phone.

Then he looked up and began to talk to the person he knew was in the room.

"Akihito, you are home earl…" He did not finish his sentence as he stared at his previously blond lover. During the past two days, he had gotten kind of used to the luminescent pink but he had to make a double take at what he saw now. Akihito's head looked like it came straight out of a little girl's bedroom.

He was baffled.

"Fucking say something, I fucking dare you!"

Akihito half hissed half yelled. Asami had no idea that was even possible but he did not say anything, instead he laughed. A loud, full and belly aching laugh that must have taken all the air out of his lungs. Akihito looked at him shocked from hearing such noise come from the stoic man before remembering that he was pissed and that Asami had just laughed at him.

"Asami, you ass!" He screamed before trying to hide his head under one of the little throw pillows from the couch. "That was really mean, laughing at me like that." He pouted

"At least I did not outright comment on it." Asami chuckled "Besides, it's not that bad."

"N-not that bad, it looks like a fucking unicorn crapped on my head! All I need is some glitter and it will officially be something you can find on a show like my little pony."

"Oh, Akihito, you have always been good enough for my little pony." He said with a smirk.

"Ha-ha, so fucking funny you bastard. I'm so pissed right now… I may never forgive you unless you can really make it up to me." Asami's eyebrow lifted in curiosity at the sadistic gleam in Akihito's eyes and the obviously taunting voice. Okay, he was going to take the bait and find out what his lover was up to.

"Won't you? Tell me Akihito, what can I do in exchange for your valuable forgiveness?"

That sadistic gleam morphed into a full on sadistic smirk. Suddenly, Asami wasn't so sure he wanted to know what was going on through that troublesome little head.

"I am so glad you asked Asami because there is something I really need you to do for me."

A lesser man would have gulped and shaken in his pants at the saccharine tone in which Akihito spoke as he looked at Asami straight in the eyes, the incredibly sadistic gleam and smirk still plastered on his face. For the first time in a long time, Asami thought that he may have made a serious mistake but he quickly shook the thought away. He did not make mistakes.

"What do you want?" He asked looking at Akihito in puzzled curiosity.

"Let's go on a secret trip to Sion, you and I. Now." That sadistic smirk grew in proportion as Akihito spoke.

The taller man almost went back to thinking this was not going to end up good. Almost. But he really wants to know what had Akihito in such a devious mood. He had an idea as to who was the cause of the little devil in his usually caring lover to raise its head, he surmised he would just sit back and enjoy the aftermath of Akihito's and Kirishima's actions.

They had made an unscheduled stop on their way to Sion. Akihito went into Kou's apartment and Asami waited in the black sedan for him to come back.

"Are you sure it will last? The last thing I want is for them to go off on me because you put the wrong amount in." Akihito said to Kou as he held a large box in his hands.

"Would you chill already?! I asked Yoshida's new girlfriend about the dose for a cat and she told me exactly how much I should give them and how long it would work. It's all taken care of man; you just put them there and let them do their thing… in about… eight hours and thirty minutes."

Perfect timing, this could not have gone better if it had been planned for more than one hour, the plan took to set up six hours ago. He was glad that it had taken very little asking to get Asami to do his part.

Off they went to Sion and Akihito looked at the box several times with an evil chuckle escaping his mouth as he sat in the car. Asami was beginning to get worried for the blonde's sanity.

KIRISHIMA

"The strangest thing is the animals that were taken." Said the newscaster. "When you think about it, there are a great number of exotic animals in the zoo so it doesn't make sense that the three robbers would choose those. With all those animals that could be sold in the black market and be made a large profit out of them, why would they choose such worthless ones? This is without a doubt one of the strangest occurrences that happen at the To…"

Kirishima turned off the TV and headed for bed with an oddly satisfying feeling in his chest. According to the guards on Takaba duty, the boy had gone to the store this morning to buy hair treatment products and after royally botching his attempt at fixing his hair, spent all afternoon sequestered in the penthouse. That will teach the little brat not to mess with him.

He chuckled at the genius that was his plan for revenge and how Akihito looked when he saw the boy the next day. The kid had been majorly pissed when he went to get Asami to go to work and Kirishima had to try his best not to laugh then and there, at the daggers being glared at him from the pink menace.

With a sigh of contentment he took off his glasses and crawled into bed, his own bed, deciding to leave figuring out ways not to be left alone with Suoh and having to deal with their one night stand for the morning. He had managed to avoid the topic pretty well for these two days and he would continue to do so until he was sure the other man was not going to bring it up.

Kirishima closed his eyes and fell into deep relaxed sleep, his dreams filled with math and financial problems that only he could solve and present to Asami. In his dream, Asami was larger than life and he would sit behind a large desk with a red apple on it and look at the sheets of paper Kirishima would hand to him and smile as he wrote a big 100% mark on it with bold red numbers. Kirishima really liked this particular dream.

Morning arrived and he readied himself for the day. The bespectacled man walked down the hallway with confident stride as the metal doors of the elevator closed behind him. He stopped at the only door on the top floor of the building and after three short knocks let himself into the penthouse.

Asami was getting off the chair after finishing his coffee and breakfast and Kirishima held his suit jacket for him to get into. He tried very hard not to laugh at the girly pink color of Akihito's hair and thankfully managed to keep a stoic façade.

"Asami-sama, the limo is ready for you." He said holding the man's briefcase.

"Hm." Asami answered and they both left the penthouse and the building on their way to Sion.

Asami went straight to his office like he always does and Kirishima went in the direction of his to prepare the morning reports to be presented to his boss in two hours. On his way to his office, he was stopped by one of his assistants who handed him a pile of folders with discrepancies that he would need to look at.

The faithful secretary resumed his walk to his office and stopped short as he spotted the large blond man leaning against his door. He felt the need to turn around and get the hell out of there but with a sigh kept walking forward until he stood in front of the man.

"Do you need something, Suoh?" He asked dreading the answer.

"Kei, I think we need to talk about what happened the other night."

"Suoh, I think we need to remain professional at all times now to avoid misunderstandings so I ask you to please refrain from addressing me by my given name even when we are alone. Also, there is nothing we need to talk about, what happened the other night was something caused by a third party and not something either of us would engage in with each other had we been in our right mind. Now, please move from my door, I have work to do."

Suoh moved from the door with a resigned expression and Kirishima stepped around him to enter the office. Before the door closed, the blond bodyguard exclaimed, "Fuck it" in an angry huff and entered the office as well shutting the door loudly behind him. He grabbed Kirishima by the front of his suit and pushed him onto the wall roughly. Kirishima was about to yell at him but his words were unable to leave his mouth as Suoh's was suddenly pressed against it.

The secretary could not think of a time he had been angrier than he was at that moment. Surely this was some kind of sick joke. He pushed the larger man off him and was about to yell all the profanities crossing his mind.

But that was when he heard it.

A noise coming from his desk.

It was like a squeak and a whine at the same time and the man thought with disgust that there were rats in his very clean office. How in the hell? Clearly, Suoh had read it too because the blond man also had his gaze trained upon the desk.

They moved silently to the source of the noise and noticed the slight shake of the bottom drawer. He was going to shoot the damn thing for daring go into his desk, probably looking for food, and getting trapped in it.

Slowly, Kirishima drew his gun and cocked it, happy that he was going to get to shoot something and take his anger into the unsuspecting rat. He bent down and slowly pulled out his drawer. What he found there made him freeze in fearful shock.

Next to him, in a hiss of shocked breath, Suoh also froze and let out the words "fuck" in the quietest voice he had ever heard the large man use to this date.

Fuck indeed.

He tried to retreat slowly and quietly, tried not to make any sudden noises or movements. But at that moment after a short knock, his assistant entered the room breaking the silence and startling him to the core. For all his weapons training, Kirishima Kei could not help pressing the trigger and sending a bullet to the floor, its noise never before had sounded so loud to him.

And that is when they saw him.

And they turned around.

And Kirishima Kei and Suoh Kazumi had never before felt the kind of fear they felt at that moment as their tails came up and the two skunks Akihito had stolen from the zoo sprayed them both with the most horrible smelling of substances.

He was going to murder that damn brat.
