My Paid Assassin

Chapter 7: Almost

12 pm…

Utsukushii Avenue, the most rich and famous street in Domino, where all of the rich guys from the companies around Domino area live… including our world famous CEO…

"Okay… I've trespassed the gate…" Yami looks around the place, trying not to make to much sound as he moves around the courtyard.

"Yami… I see two men going your way, take cover." Marik whispers into his transmitter.

"I don't see anyone at the back of the house, I'm going in." Bakura carefully jumps into the near tree and down the trunk he went until his feet met the ground.

They have entered the Watanabe mansion… Last week, they were given the mission to kill the Watanabe heir, the client was the brother of said heir… and, today, they are going to fulfill this mission…

"Oh shit…" Bakura murmurs.

"What is it?" Yami responds.

"There are 4 fucking German Shepherd dogs in front if me… and their awake…"

"There's some sleeping gas on your pants, use it on them." Yami commands.

"Ah… Yeah." Even though he won't accept it, he's afraid of big dog like those ones in front of him, he just freezes when he sees them, remembering those bad memories of when he was 4…"You damn dogs…" He opens the can of sleeping gas and throws it in front of the dogs. "Okay, I've already gave those dogs the gas… I'll be over there when they stop growling at me…"

"Good."

"Yami, they're approaching you." Marik warns him.

This time, Marik got the job of guard. He's on the Watanabe's neighbor's house, up on a tree, watching closely at all the action that's happening from up there with his binocular, and communicating his friends and the HQ on what is happening and the movements of the security guards, so that they can be alert.

"Where are they?"

"Two are coming from your left, other two from your right… and… where are the other 2? I've lost sight of them…"

"Don't worry about them… I've already heard them…" He charges his gun, putting it on his pocket.

"Freeze!" Two armed guys come from behind.

Yami stands up and turns around. "Oh… I got caught…" Innocent voice.

"Yes you got caught! And who might you be? Another wimp that's been sent to kill the Watanabe heir?"

"Well the part of me being sent to kill the Watanabe heir is right, but I don't know about me being a wimp is right."

"And what makes you say that so arrogantly?"

" 'Cause… I'm the Dark Assassin." No regrets and no hesitation on saying those intense set of words.

"Yeah right! The Dark Assassin would never let himself get caught."

"Hey. A lot of people have seen me, and I've been caught quite some times… But never have I gotten apprehended…"

"I still don't believe you're the Dark Assassin…" The big dude speaks with confidence. "He is feared by everyone and has such discreet way of being, you can't be him."

"Well think whatever you want…" He looks down. "You ass…"

Eyes glare…

Gun out…

Dead man…

No one saw him, his movements where so fast no one could have counter attacked him. The Dark Assassin had shot the guy in front of him, felling nothing regret what so ever…

"You bastard how da-" That guy never did finish his sentence; a bullet coming from behind him had hit him straight in his nape.

"Hey, this time it wasn't me." Yami says with charisma; not exactly the time to be using that.

"We need-" Another guy spoke, but Yami didn't give him the chance to end the sentence either.

"Now that was I." He says proudly. "What you're waiting for? For me to kill you all? Bring it." Yami challenges them.

They all come charging at him, taking out their guns in the process. "Hopeless losers!" Yami jumps on the car behind him, then up into the air he goes, shooting straight into the heads of two of them. In mid air, while still falling, he kicks the last one on the head, knocking him down. "Hmm… you didn't even make me sweet."

"D-don't k-kill me!" He pleaded.

"Sorry… But this is my job." He shoots him straight in the heart, instant death.

"I was going to get in the fight but I saw you were having fun." Bakura, who was hiding among the trees, comes out.

"Hmm… I think all of the shooting has gotten the neighbor's and the guards attention, you better hurry up inside before the police comes. I'll take those dim witted guys."

"Got it chief." He says, running away into the house, shooting some guys who came across his way…

The next day…

4:26 pm…

'Mmm… Seto's late…' The man glances at his watch. 'Wonder if Bakura and Marik were able to get into his office…' He looks into the sky, the clear blue sky; today is a perfect day that announces the beginning of the summer.

"Yami!" A tall brunet runs towards him, carrying his brother in the baby carrier. "Sorry I'm late."

"It's okay, beside the movie starts at 4:45." Yami stands up, and starts walking along with Seto. "So why were you late?"

"Umm… Well I don't know if you heard about the Watanabe assassination." Seto seems a little disturb about that.

"Yeah, it's all over the news and the papers. But what about that?"

"Well, The younger Watanabe happens to be a friend of mine… actually, I'm his neighbor."

"Really? Y-You live at Utsukushi?!" He says with a surprised tone, yet, him being a spy, he already knew that he lived in such avenue, but never actually thought that the Watanabe family is his neighbor… 'I should really investigate more about were he lives… though the client never did ask for that…'

"Yeah…" Seto lowers his tone. He may be rich but he doesn't like to brag much about his money, though when it comes to games… you really shouldn't start a topic with him like that…

"Umm…?" Yami's face expression, although fake, said that he wanted to know more about him.

"I'm Seto Kaiba… does my surname ring a bell?"

"Yeah… Kaiba Corp." He says innocently.

"The owner." He lowers his head, not exactly liking it.

"Y-You're the owner of the Kaiba Corp?!" Amazed… not really. "I'm sensing that you don't like being the CEO of such company."

"Actually, I never liked the family I was born into. Don't get me wrong, never disliked my parents, I disliked the over excessive money. My father was never around, however, since little he trained me to be a successful man in business. Never liked the economics field… And my mother, she loved me a lot but because she worked together with my father… didn't see her much either."

"Oh…" Yami thinks about his family, being grateful that her mother was there every time he needed her. "So umm… why exactly were you late? We kind of went of topic."

"Oh yeah… Well, the neighborhood went haywire with the killing, and we gather around and got to the resolution of hiring guards to be throughout the place, looking out for anything suspicious. And each family is going to hire their own group of guards."

"Oh." Yami didn't have anything else to say.

He knew perfectly that guards wouldn't secure the houses; it would only make it harder for them to kill the man that they need to kill, thus killing the guards. He didn't like to kill innocent men that just wanted to protect someone, but if he doesn't either the main guy won't get killed or he'll get caught.

"You know, Akihiko, the younger Watanabe, told me that the killer was that Dark Assassin bastard."

His eyes open and he looks the other way, whispering, "…Watch who you're calling a bastard…"

"Pardon?" Seto hears something, though not sure of it.

"Ahh…" He takes his sight to the brunet. "H-How do he know it was he?"

"The initials DA were, you can say, written on the wall."

"Mm…"

"I've heard the he kills because people pay him, making him a paid assassin."

"Yeah, I've also heard things like that." Yami's just following what he says, not wanting to give up any information about himself or his friends that the public doesn't know.

"And I've also heard from a show that investigators have been trying to track him down for about 4 years, and that he's so good that he's nearly impossible to find. They said that he fits so well into society that he can be a man with a middle class job, or even a waiter and we don't know for sure. And you know what's the scariest part?"

"Umm… what?" Seto was telling things so lively, that at some point of it, it made him feel intimidated.

"The reason why he kills, that's the scariest part, he kills because someone sends him. And I'm afraid that because I have such leading and popular company, that many of my adversaries want me dead, and that one of these days they'll send him to kill me… And ah… taking last night as an example, there where 20 guards, 18 died because of the gun shots, and the other 2 are alive… but severely injured… actually I think they're depending on machines to stay alive."

"That really is scary, thinking that he can kill without any mercy." Yami turns his sight the other way, really thinking on what Seto had said. 'Is that what they think of us?'

"But you know, the person itself, the person behind the Dark Assassin façade, maybe he's shy, maybe his energetic, maybe he is a complete stub, nerd, who knows? Maybe he's a nice guy though…"

"Yeah." He was happy to have heard that. "You know, we've been standing here for about 10 minutes… It's already 4:40, the movie is about to start." Yami says looking at his watch…

- - - - -

In the middle of the movie…

"Who you calling an asshole?"

"The only asshole here."

Our favorite couple is now in the movies, theater 3, watching one of those comedies, actions films. They've bought 2 small sodas, medium size popcorn and chocolate covered raisins. The room being large and without much people in it, they're on the back row, occupying 3 seats, Yami, Seto and Mokuba, sitting in the ordered that they were mentioned.

"Look you've done it."

Loud crash noises come from the surround sound.

Yami puts his hand inside the popcorn that is in between him and Seto, and takes a little bunch into his mouth.

"Why are you blaming me about it?"

"Because!"

Seto reaches for the popcorn, taking a few into his other hand, that also had some chocolate covered raisins in it.

"Now my mother hates you!"

"Why? Just because I kicked that piece of junk!"

"That wasn't a piece of junk! It was her cat!"

"Oh so that's why it said meow when I kicked it…"

'That dude somehow resembles Joey…' Yami thinks as he sees that that guy, as well as Joey, is blonde and has an impulsive attitude.

Yami reaches into the popcorn, but, as he sees how the girl mad at his boyfriend grabs the pitcher of lemonade as bathes him with it, he kept the hand there.

"Ah! What was that for?"

Seto looks at his left hand, it had no popcorn. He looks up at the movie again, a bunch of insults were heard, that girl was angry.

"Watch that mouth!"

Seto smiles and reaches into the popcorn, keeping his sight at the screen…

Yami grabs another bunch of popcorn…

They meet…

Their hands had touch…

An impulsive reaction, both of them take their hand out of the container…

"So-" They say it at unison looking at each other.

Their eyes had met… Cobalt and crimson had finally met…

'His eyes…' They both think.

Yami drowns in those blue cobalt eyes like if they were a pool of pure trance…

Seto dazes upon those hot crimson red eyes filled with fire and pureness…

Yami tilts his head to the right, just slightly…

Seto does the same, taking the first step, pushing himself forward and nearing himself to the other one…

Yami by now is able to feel a warm breath blow on his cheek…

They are so close to each other…

Their lips brush, not touching completely…

Seto feels Yami's silky lips, opening slowly his mouth, closing his eyes at the same time…

Yami notices that those perfect virgin lips are parting from each other, and that those beautiful eyes are closing ever so slowly… He follows through…

There's nothing that can stop that kiss… Their lips are already touching and their warm tongues are closing by the second… And they-

"Waaah!" A weeping is heard. Mokuba started to cry.

Seto immediately turns the other way, shushing his brother. "Shh." He puts his finger in his lips. "I'll give you your bottle but shh." He crutches down for the diaper bag.

Yami's face expression was blank. He is staring at Seto, thinking, 'Why do I feel like if I was just rejected…? Why this feeling in my body…? Why does my mouth want something…? But what is that something…?' He bites his tongue without hurting it…
