"Kanone, I know you're excited but you really should get some sleep..." Ryoko passed by the lab to look since she was assigned to check every room in the house this week before going to bed. Annoyingly, she found Kanone still awake in the lab.

The brunettes smiled apologetically, "Sorry about that, Ryoko...I'm going to be now..."

The girl smiled contentedly. Finally, she can go to sleep. Ryoko dragged her feet away when she noticed something...

"Kanone! It's time to go to bed!" she shouted exasperatedly, pulling Kanone (who was trying to sneak back into the lab and watch the specimen again) like a little kid and literally throwing him into his room.

"Good night, Kanone... And don't even try to go back. I just turned laser security on..." Ryoko smirked as she clicked something on a remote like device and went to the direction of her own room.

The next morning...

"Good morning, dudes and dudettes!" Kousuke shuffled (his pajama bottoms were a bit too big, Ryoko's fault) downstairs to their open kitchen door, grabbed the nearest cereal box, his favorite bowl, a spoon, and sat down in between Rio and Ryoko. The brown haired girl sighed and poured some milk into his bowl, purposely splashing some on his shirt.

"Say...Where's Kanone?" the red-headed teen asked in between mouthfuls of milk and cereal.

Rio, Ayumu, and Hiyono looked at Ryoko who replied, "Don't worry. I heard him snoring in his room."

They were about to resume their peaceful breakfast when they were disrupted by a loud alarm coming from the lab, followed by a loud gasp. They all abandoned breakfast and ran upstairs, only to be met by an astonishing sight.

Kanone was there, standing up from a chair beside the inspection table, his face was beaming. And why wouldn't he be happy? The specimen was lying on the inspection table but he had both eyes open meaning he was alive!

"Okay... So, he is alive but...how can we communicate to him?" Ayumu dampened everyone's spirits as he posed this question.

"Man, he's dumb... Maybe he's a modernized caveman of some sort... " Kousuke snickered and earned a slap from Ryoko.

"Well, right now we have to improvise!" Rio stepped closer to the specimen, who was now sitting upright, and spoke in a very slow manner and accompanied by a few hand gestures, "Can you understand me? Can you speak English?"

The tension built up in the room as the specimen took a deep breath and prepared to talk. He muttered a few ancient sounding words then looked at everyone else in the room, "I find it insulting to be called dumb." he spoke in straight English, with a certain British tone.

Everyone froze at that. It took them a couple of minutes to fully understand what was happening...

"So...you do speak English..." Rio asked again, and at this, he nodded.

After a few more silent minutes, Ayumu opted to start a short introduction and he was followed by Ryoko, Rio, Kousuke, and Hiyono. When it was Kanone's turn, he was at a loss for words and ended up stammering his name.

Completely forgetting all thoughts about breakfast, (well, Kousuke wanted to go back to the kitchen and look for the prize indicated in the box) Hiyono and Rio automatically took out writing pads while Ryoko took out her tape recorder.

Ayumu started, "Well then...do you remember anything about your past?"

The boy being questioned shut his eyes momentarily and answered, "The last thing I saw was a huge crowd gathered around me...then I saw a blade...and then blood..."

"Hmm... It sounds like you were an offering of some sort..." Kanone joined in, regaining his professional composure.

"...Or they wanted to kill you for some sort of reason..." Ayumu, once again, gained everyone's attention. For a second, Ayumu thought that the blue-eyed boy gave him a glare but he dismissed this as a hallucination.

"You know, we should give him a name..." Rio paused from her writing and earned some nods of approval.

"How about Tony?" Hiyono asked, but earned disapproving looks.

"How about Sapphire?" Kousuke smirked before getting told by Ryoko that Sapphire was a girl's name.

"He needs something unique...like... Eyes...?" Kanone looked at those beautiful blue orbs and everyone nodded in approval, even the specimen liked it.

At this, the questionings restarted. This lasted the whole day, and was only disrupted by the occasional stomach grumbles and bathroom breaks (though Ryoko swears Kousuke tried to sneak back to the kitchen). Though, the session did stop when Kousuke said that his digested stomach is digesting itself once again and they all went down to dinner, where Eyes insisted on being taught how to cook.

Everything was very peaceful...

The eerie glow of the full moon guided Kanone as he ascended the carpeted stairs, towards his room. But he suddenly felt a certain urge to visit Eyes, since his bedroom wasn't so far from his anyway, which was an understatement. Eyes' room was at the end of the third floor hallway, right beside the security room (which could be operated by an eyes scanner, by the way).

The brunette knocked twice before hearing a reply.

"What is it that you want, Mr. Hilbert?" the silver-haired boy bowed politely as Kanone entered.

The golden-eyed boy bowed back quite nervously, "Just call me Kanone, okay?"

"Sure Mr... I mean, Kanone. Now, what is it that you want? It surprises me that you are still awake at this hour of night..."

"Well...I honestly can't stop thinking about you ever since we found you... That's pretty much it..." the brunette admitted, blushing a mild shade of pink.

"So...are you telling me you came here for no apparent reason?" Eyes asked, a small smile gracing his lips. It seems he finds this very amusing...

At this, Kanone smiled apologetically, "Sorry about that... I guess I just have OCD..."

"OCD?"

"It stands for Obsessive Compulsive Disorder... You know, when you can't stop thinking about something..."

"Oh." Eyes looked out the window. The moon was full and the stars were twinkling in the night sky... It was a perfect night...

"Well... I guess I'd better go back to bed now...Ryoko might throw me in again..." the brunette was about to leave when Eyes suddenly held his hand.

"I need to tell you something." the blue-eyed boy smiled seductively, pulling Kanone to the darkest corner of the room. The brunette could feel his heartbeat accelerating as he and Eyes' faces came closer and closer...

"Good-bye." Eyes whispered, kissing Kanone, then stabbing him to death.
