Silver Eyes
Chapter 3
Gone
xXXx
Over the next week, Kaoru became friendlier with Yukiya and Taki. There was hardly a moment when they were apart during the day, always under the watchful eye of their partners. The other men were glad to see the two making progress with the stubborn boy and Ryuugo was just glad to see his Kaoru smiling once more.
At the moment the three were planning a night out, but were meeting with some resistance from the others.
"Please?" Yukiya begged his brother, who was the one in charge of everyone else, and if they wanted to go out, he was the one they had to get through.
"No," Hatozaki said.
"Oh come on, Ryuichi(1). We just want to go out for one night," Yukiya said.
"No," He said, again. "We can't take that risk."
"Why not?" Taki asked from behind the younger brother.
Hatozaki looked up at the others; Taki was standing with his arms crossed over his chest, Goh not standing far behind. Next to Taki were Kaoru and Ryuugo, with their uncles behind them. Tsunuga sat not too far away, idly watching them. "Because, it's not safe for Kaoru to go out with just the two of you."
"But I won't just be with them," Kaoru spoke up. "Goh and Ryuugo will be there too."
Hatozaki sighed, he knew he wasn't going to get anywhere with this group, especially if his brother continued to give him those puppy-dog eyes. "Alright, alright," he caved, "You can go." Yukiya grinned in success before turning, grabbing Taki's and Kaoru's hands, then running off, probably to get ready. Hatozaki then turned to the other two, "Just don't let them out of your sight."
The two men nodded before turning and going to get ready themselves.

"This is going to be so much fun," Yukiya said excitedly as he put on some black eyeliner. "Don't you think?" He asked looking at the other two through the mirror.
The three had been getting ready in Kaoru's room, and the youngest of the three was sitting on his bed watching Yukiya, Taki leaning his back against a near-by wall.
When he didn't get an answer, Yukiya put the eyeliner away and turned around. "Well… what do you think?" He asked spreading his arms out. He wore a pair of tight black leather low-riders and a red shimmery halter top, showing off his slender shoulders and a bit of his flat stomach. His eyes were outlined in the black mascara, making his silver eyes pop, since he wasn't wearing his usual brown contacts. As Taki looked him over he noticed that the younger boy had some lip gloss on as well.
"You really are going all out on this, aren't you?" He asked. Taki, himself was dressed very plainly in a tight forest green shirt and black pants. He wore his usual earring, and a black choker with a silver cross hanging from it, and unlike Yukiya, he had his contacts in.
"Of course I am," Yukiya said, "Ryuichi never lets me go out, no matter how much I beg him."
"He's only doing it because he cares," Taki tried to make Yukiya see reason. "He's seen what people have done to us; he doesn't want to see you in that morgue or hospital. He wants you to be safe. Goh worries endlessly when we go out on one of our jobs, it's normal for us."
"Yeah, but you'd think he'd be a little more protective of you now, considering…"Yukiya trailed off when he saw Taki look away ashamed. "Oh my god, he doesn't know does he?" He asked shocked. "You haven't told him?!"
"Yukiya just shut up," Taki said frustrated. "It's fine, nothing's going to happen. And besides, it's not like you told your brother either."
"Yeah, but that's different," the boy whined.
"How is it different, Yukiya?" He asked hotly.
The boy crossed his arms over his chest. "I didn't know until we got here, but you did."
The two glared at each other defiantly until a tentative voice asked, "What are you two talking about?" They looked at Kaoru who was giving them curious looks.
Taki shook his head, "It's nothing Kaoru, don't worry." Yukiya just nodded his head, and Kaoru let it go, even though he was still curious.
Just then there was a knock on the door. The three turned to see Goh and Ryuugo enter, both dressed fairly plainly in tight black tee's and black jeans. Goh was wearing his usual earring, and Ryuugo had on a black-studded choker.
"Hey, you guys ready?" Goh asked.
"Yep!" Yukiya said energetically, running out of the room, followed by the others at a slower pace.
Coming down the stairs the group was met with the older men. Upon seeing his brother Hatozaki frowned, but with a shake of Yukiya's head, he let it slide, knowing not to make a scene in front of Kaoru. Then, after a few 'goodbyes' and 'be careful's, they headed out to the awaiting car and they were off to the club.
xXx
'Dragon's Scale' was a club popular for its young crowd of mixed sexualities. As they entered, the club was playing Rihana's 'Shut-up and Drive.' Yukiya squealed saying that it was his favorite song, before he dragged Kaoru and Taki to the dance floor.
Goh and Ryuugo took a seat at one of the tall tables and watched the three. They were dancing with their hands in the air, and swinging their hips to the music.
After awhile, Taki and Kaoru came over to drag Goh and Ryuugo with them. Immediately Goh drew Taki to him possessively, back-to-chest, and started grinding their hips together. Taki reached his arms up and wrapped them around Goh's neck as best he could in their position, turning his face up to his partner's.
Looking away from the man, he saw Ryuugo and Kaoru in a similar position, with Yukiya dancing around them, not caring that he was the only one of their group without a partner. Taki chuckled at the boy's energy, before turning his attention back to dancing and having a good time with the man he had come to love.
xXx
Unbeknownst to them they were being watched by a group of men in a dark corner. The men smoked calmly as they watched…waiting. Then they saw their chance, and putting their cigarettes out in the ash tray, they stalked, unnoticed, after their victims.
xXx
Feeling exhaustion taking over them, Taki, Kaoru, and Yukiya excused themselves to the bathroom, while the other two went to the bar for drinks. The three were laughing about nothing as they entered the empty bathroom. Turning to the mirror Yukiya applied more eyeliner, while Taki and Kaoru stood, trying to catch their breath.
"God, this was such a good idea," Taki said. "Goh and I haven't been out clubbing for awhile."
"I know what you mean," Kaoru said. "The last time Ryuugo took me anywhere like this, was before we were even in a real relationship."
"At least you guys have been clubbing," Yukiya said putting his eyeliner away.
"Oh come on Yukiya," Kaoru said as he opened the door leading out to the hall separating the dance floor from the bathrooms. "It couldn't have been that bad." He turned and started to walk backwards, to look at the other two.
"You try being stuck inside for God knows how long," Yukiya protested. The three started laughing and didn't notice the approaching figures until Kaoru had bumped into one.
"Oh, sorry," he said as he turned to see the man he had run into. The man grinned maliciously as he grabbed the boy, using something to cover his mouth and nose. Realizing he was in trouble, Kaoru started to struggle. Out of the corner of his eye, he could see more men rush past him at Taki and Yukiya. As he struggled to breathe through the piece of fabric covering half his face, he realized it must have been laced with something, as his vision started to go dark. The last thing he heard was Taki calling his name, as he faded into black.
xXx
Seeing Kaoru collapse, Taki doubled his efforts to get to him. The men had also managed to subdue Yukiya, and were now struggling to control him. A hand covered his mouth and he bit down hard causing the owner of the hand to cry out. He kicked another man close by, before he felt someone grab his shoulder roughly and punch him in the gut. He fell to his knees, wrapping his arms around his middle. Falling to the floor, he could see feet approaching him. As darkness took him he thought, 'No, not now, not there. God not there, why didn't I see that coming?' Before he succumbed to unconsciousness.
xXx
Ryuugo and Goh were starting to worry. The boys had left for the bathroom almost half-an-hour ago, and had yet to return. Looking at each other, they stood and headed toward the hall. Heading toward the bathroom door, they spotted several dents in the wall, but thought nothing of it. Upon seeing that the bathroom was empty, they took a closer look at the dents in the wall, they were fresh(2). Fear filled them, and they looked for a sign, any sign, that their partners were okay, when something caught Goh's eye. Kneeling down he picked up what they both had hoped not to find. Dread filled them as they stared fearfully at Taki's earring, the one that he shared with Goh, and never took off under any circumstance. They looked at each other and a message passed between them.
They were gone.
xXXx
Don't kill me! If you kill me you'll never know what happens! So please, for the sake of Taki, Yukiya and Kaoru, DON'T KILL ME!!!!!!
(1)- This is Hatozaki's first name. I looked it up in the…second volume, I believe. Whichever one has the profiles.
(2)- I don't know if there is any way of telling this, I'm just making it up, so don't criticize me.
