Note: Durarara isn't mine! Now enjoy ;D
When Delic opened his eyes again, he saw pure blue sky. No trace after the rainy clouds, though when he fell, he felt raindrops musk his skin.
He stood up, and saw the rest of the newcomers sitting on a bench. When he looked around, he noticed that they were in a village that reminded him of some old western films that he and Hibiya once watched.
Hibiya... heh that self proclaimed prince must be in his castle, enjoying his power. Delic looked to his left, and saw a magnificent castle, from a blue stone, and the roof was white. The glass in the windows were with various colors and Delic wondered if you could see anything trough them.
Then, he got nearer the party, and saw their worried expressions.
"What happened? Is there something on my face?" He asked, confused. He wanted to take on his headphones, but when he reached for them, he noticed that they were gone.
"Who would really care if you had something on your face, Delic-chan? The thing that concerns me is that Shizu-chan isn't here, and it isn't raining." Izaya said, his voice very worried indeed.
"Well, now that you mention it, I don't see him either. Maybe that mermaid didn't let him trough, because he had your switchblade? Or before he entered the fountain it stopped raining here." Delic said, his voice and facial expression annoyed when he thought about that woman. Why couldn't he take his headphones?
"No, I remember Shizuo-kun calling Shinra to come and take the things that we left behind us. And besides, it stopped raining here as soon as Delic appeared. I guess we have to wait until it rains again." Tsugaru said, lighting his pipe.
"Hey, let's all be calm. I'm sure that Shizuo-san will come when he'll be needed. And let's not forget why are we here. We should get going, if we want to reach the castle today. Who knows what happens to Roppi-san now." Tsukishima said, and turned to the opposite side of the castle.
"Em... Tsuki-kun? Where are you going? The castle is that way." Psyche said the obvious. Everyone looked at the red eyed blonde with curiosity.
Tsukishima turned around, a light blush on his face. It wasn't unusual for him to get lost, but to go in the opposite direction of a destination that he could see... that never happened before.
"Umm... well... I'm not sure if we won't be treated as intruders if we just go there... and I don't know how about you... but I'm hungry, so wouldn't it be better for us to eat something first?" Tsuki asked, and his stomach growled.
Everyone agreed. Izaya and Delic didn't eat the dinner, because they searched for clues in the park, and Tsugaru with Psyche followed all of them too. It would be weird if only they two went to the castle, and nobody could tell when, or if they would get some food when they reach the castle.
Meanwhile, the Prince Hibiya was angry. For the first time, he was displeased with the actions of the blonde butler.
And he had all the right to show that, and maybe punish him. He was the prince after all.
"You must know, butler that I'm displeased with your action towards the newcomer. This isn't the way that we treat our guests. And Hachimenroppi is a friend of mine, be it from this world or the other. But the worst is, that you didn't tell me of you actions. For that, you will be punished. As the starter, no sex for a week. Do not come near me, the closest you can be is five meters. And get Hachimenroppi here. He will be my guest at today's dinner. Tell the chief to prepare something from the east. Nuddles or fired rice with scampi's as best." Hibiya said, his voice very serious. It was the first time that he called Shitsuo by 'butler' since he had come here.
But he couldn't forgive the blonde for such treatment. It was very disrespectful. And what would Roppi-san think of him as a Prince? A cruel aristocrat that treats guest by placing them in jail as soon as they arrive? No, Hibiya didn't like that. He wasn't cruel.
The other thing that troubled him was... why did Hachimenroppi come here? Surely the red eyed raven will tell him about coming back with him, and that everyone is missing him.
But Hibiya would refuse to that. Why should he go back, when here he could finally do that he is best at? And that is being a prince of course.
In half an hour, Hachimenroppi entered the dinning hall, looking curiously around the room. The castle did a good impression at him, despite that he was in jail for the last 24 hours. But he was relieved when he heard that it was a misunderstanding.
Then, he saw Hibiya at the other end of a long table. He sat on a golden chair with a golden crown that fitted his head perfectly. He truly looked like a prince.
"You must know that I'm truly sorry for what happened to you. The butler is now punished, so he won't do that mistake again. And now, Roppi-san I'm a prince indeed. So you must adress me with proper respect." Hibiya said, his voice arrogant as usual.
Roppi looked at him, with a sight that normally did that Hibiya gave up his stupid ideas. Yes, looking from under his hair, Roppi could be scary.
But even that gaze didn't help. Hibiyas facial expression didn't change at all.
"Shall I call you Hibi-no-ouji-sama or are you okay with a simple Hibiya-sama?" Roppi asked, his voice pretty annoyed. As always. Seeing Hibiyas face at that moment, was priceless.
The prince couldn't believe that Roppi, the great pessimist and the one who always mocked with him about his princely title actually asked which suffix is more proper. Hibiya was astonished for a couple of minutes, but noticing the confused gaze of the raven haired, red eyed man, he repiled:
"If it's you, then you can call me Hibiya-sama. Hibi-no-ouji is too official. And we are friends, right?" he asked, turning his gaze to the window.
"Of course, Hibiya-sama. I think that this table is too long for only us two. Do you mind if I place my chair a bit closer? I wouldn't be able to hear you otherwise." Roppi said, proceeding to the said chair, but Hibiya stopped him.
"Don't bother. I have my servants to do such things. And normally we don't talk by the dinner, but I guess that we can do an exception for today." Hibiya said, a light smile making it's way on his face.
When Hibiya clapped his hands, three servants came in. One looked similar to Shizuo's brother and the woman that was there, reminded Roppi of that woman that worked for Izaya. The third was the blonde butler.
The three of them moved the chair and the table-ware and then got out. Roppi looked in the door's direction even after they were out of the room.
"Sit please. I asked the chief to prepare something that will remind me of that food back home." Hibiya said, starting to eat his meal.
Roppi sat on the chair. It felt comfortable especially comparing to the hay pile that he sat on recently.
"I thought that it was Shizuo at first, but that must be a guy that lives here, right? Was it he that convinced Hibiya-sama to come here?" Roppi said, and took a bite of the rice. It was very delicious, he had to admit.
"That is Shitsuo, the butler of the castle. And you are right, he did get me here indeed. What do you think about the food?" Hibiya asked, taking another part of his rice. It was very tasteful. He had to give an order to Simon to make this dish more often.
"I couldn't make any better myself, and you know that fried rice is my specialty. It's very delicious." Roppi said, and he continued to eat.
Hibiya frowned. Why did Roppi-san suddenly dare to call him by 'you'? He probably forgot already.
Oh well, that will result in degrading him. Hibiya thought that Roppi could take that butler's place as his personal servant, but he wasn't willing to have a servant that treats him with disrespect.
"Well that's good. So, do you mind telling me why are you here? I guess that you came to convince me to come back with you to the 'real world'. And you must know that I refuse. Here, I got everything and people finally acknowledges me as a Prince. And what is there really? A life that I wouldn't miss." Hibiya said, his voice firm and arrogant.
Roppi was worried. He didn't knew that golden eyed boy that sat in that princely chair. Sure, Hibiya was the only one who didn't have any work, but he didn't mind that. From all what Roppi knew, he always treasured Delic. And it was enough for the little prince
"Well, then Hibiya-sama. What about Delic then? Are you gonna leave him like that, without a word? He really is worried about you. Everyone are." Roppi said, ending his meal and taking a sip of the drink that was beside the plate.
Hibiya frowned again. That raven haired peasant dared to call him by 'you' again. Now this was the end of his mercy. He decided that Roppi will be an underling of Eimana from now on.
"Delic is a damn cold bastard that thinks that my clothes, and thus my personality is ridiculous. I don't intend to keep in conctact with such peasants. And Shitsuo is way better in bed. He allowed me to top him, and Delic didn't want to hear about that. So, Roppi-san, I'm displeased with you too. Under your replies, you dared to call me by the term 'you' two times. Results of such disrespect are that you will be a servant of mine. And Eimana will be your supervisor from now on. Thank you for your company at this dinner. Now, off to work! Eimana, show him the way." Hibiya said, his voice with a hint of coldness that reminded Roppi of that woman in the fountain. The woman that looked like Izaya's co-worker appeared and showed Roppi the way.
When both of them left, Shitsuo entered the room and bowed before Hibiya. The prince gestured him to get up.
"I have good news for you. Your punishment will be shortened. I do allow you to have sex with me, but you shall stay away from me otherwise for 10 meters." Hibiya said, and Shitsuo nodded, a quiet Thank you Hibiya-sama, heard from his lips.
