Lavi sat in an office. Standing over at the walls were two silent cat girls in maid uniforms, and seemed to be wearing strange metal collars around their necks. Just then, the blonde woman re-entered holding a large folder. She sat in the chair opposite him and flicked through it, found the right page and held up a photo.
'Perhaps this boy would meet your requirements, sir?'
Lavi reached out a nervous hand and took the photo. It was Allen, wearing a kimono. He looked exhausted and scared.
'Y-yes,' the redhead nodded, passing the picture back, 'He'll do just fine.'
'Very well. As you offered to pay the most for this boy, I'll allow you to have him without a reservation. Please follow me.'
She got up and went out the door. Lavi hastened to follow.
'Requirements?! Reservations?! It's like they're treating this like a rental car sale!'
He was horrified, but tried to keep his face blank as he was led across a hall, down a small fright of stairs, and then up to a door. The blonde woman stopped and pulled out a small remote.
'A warning; this boy has been quite disobedient, and may put up a struggle. If you are unable to reach his ears, threaten to push the red button on this. Pushing it will cause his shock collar to activate, so no doubt he will calm right down.'
Lavi nodded, took the remote and pocketed it. The woman bowed her head and went back to her office, so the teen unlocked the door, pushed it open, and went in, shutting the door behind him. It was almost completely dark, the only light being the starry sky outside, but from what he could see, there was a small figure with white hair and cat ears sitting on the bed, not facing him. He strode forward, hopped onto the bed, grabbed Allen by the shoulders and pinned him beneath him. He could feel the boy tense and make a frightened noise in the back of his throat. He was shaking too.
'Don't be scared,' Lavi whispered, 'it's me.'
Allen gasped, and Lavi quickly placed his hand over the boy's mouth so he wouldn't make a sound.
'Are there any cameras or microphones in this room?'
He felt Allen shook his head. Lavi released him and got off the bed to find the light switch on the wall. Light flooded the room, and he turned back to see Allen staring at him in shock and confusion. Unable to help himself, he ran back and pulled the catboy into a tight hug.
'L-Lavi!'
'I'm sorry I couldn't come sooner, I only just found out where this place was...'
'But what are you doing here?! It's dangerous! They have guns and-'
'I know.' Lavi sighed and pulled away. He settled on the mattress next to Allen and took a deep breath.
'Look, the reason I'm here is cos the police are coming here tomorrow and arresting the Noah. They found the Earl's men in the force, and got the location. I found out and came here.'
'But why? If the police are coming-'
'They're coming tomorrow! I knew... Look, when I got here that blonde chick had about five customers for you, all for tonight, one after the other. I'm not just going to leave you to get hurt, even if it's for only one night!'
Allen blinked, and felt a blush creeping across his face. He moved over a bit, and buried his face in the taller boy's shoulder. Lavi patted his back and smiled.
'Anyway, I've got two hours with you before your next customer. That's two hours to get the hell away.'
'B-but I can't leave!' Allen looked up and pointed to the metal ring around his neck, 'If I do Lulubell will electrocute me.'
'No she wont, I got the remote.'
Allen blinked in surprise as Lavi pulled the item out of his pocket, and studied it. There was a big red button, but there was also I dial for the level of electricity, and a blue button to unlock the collar, he pushed the blue one, and with a snap the collar fell into the surprised Allen's lap. The redhead grinned.
'There, problem solved, now we just need to sneak out. Can we use the window?'
'No,' Allen shook his head, 'If it's opened the security alarm goes off.'
'We'll have to sneak out the front door then. That's gonna be tricky...'
The teen got up, to Allen's disappointment, and went over to the door. He opened it a crack and peeked outside.
'No ones out there and I can see the front door. I think if we make a break for it we'll be able to get away.'
The catboy nodded, got up and stood behind Lavi. Lavi grabbed his hand and smiled comfortingly at him, and then they opened the door, shut it quickly behind then and ran along the hall and down the stairs. They reached the door, and Lavi went for the handle, but as soon as he touched it, a loud alarm exploded throughout the house.
'SHIT!' Lavi cried, struggling with the handle. He backed away, and delivered a hard kick to the old lock. After a few tries, he loosened it, and when he tried the handle again the door swung open.
'Come on!' Lavi grabbed Allen's hand again and two of them ran down the gravel driveway, vaguely aware of the sound of shouting and running.
'H-how are we gonna get away?!'
'I borrowed a car! It's just past this...!'
They rounded a bend, and screeched to a halt. Road was leaning against the car, smiling and pointing a gun at them.
'Ok,' The girl took a step forward, the gun aiming at Lavi's chest, 'this is how it's gonna work. Allen, I like you, I think you're cute. If you come back to the house with me and not tell anyone, I'll let your friend live. I know the cops are coming, and the others are already making the move to hide. So long as he keeps his mouth shut and forgets about what happened, he can go home.'
She took another step forward. Lavi felt Allen grip his arm painfully tight, and the redhead patted his shoulder, trying to calm him and trying to think what to do. He couldn't just leave Allen, but he didn't want to die either and if he died Allen would be going anyway.
'So,' Road sighed when she was met by their silence, 'I guess I gotta spill some blood.'
She clicked the gun.
'W-wait!' Allen shook his head, standing in front of the older boy protectively, 'P-Please don't! I'll go with you, just don't hurt him!'
'Allen!' Lavi cried, 'Don't-!'
'Shut up Lavi I'm trying to save you here!'
'But why-'
'I love you, alright!?'
Lavi stared blankly, surprised by the confession and the forcefulness in which the normally docile cat had delivered it in. Road smiled as Allen took a few steps forward to close the distance between them. Still pointing the gun at the redhead's heart, she reached up with her other hand and grabbed Allen's ears. Allen's face immediately went slack, and he sunk to his knees, Road still not letting go to keep him in place.
'Ok, now that my cute lil' Allen isn't in any danger of getting hurt, I can get rid of you!'
'What?! But you just said-'
'I say a lot of things.'
Lavi took a fearful step back, and Road fired the gun with a loud crack. The redhead threw himself on the ground, managing to escape the bullet's path, but now the girl was pointing the gun again, and he no where to go. She grinned sadistically, took aim and clicked the gun. Instinctively, Lavi closed his eyes and covered his head with his arms, and the gun went off again.
'STOP IT!'
Lavi heard Allen's shrill voice through the blast, and looked up to see him and the girl struggling with each other, hands scratching for the weapon. The cat's left arm hung limply at his side, and from what the teen could see, it was bleeding heavily from the shoulder, just above the heart, soaking the dark blue material of the kimono in rivers of blood. He'd taken the bullet!
Finally, the cat got a stronger hold on the gun and wrenched it from the girl's grasp. Road screamed in rage and attempted to grab his ears again but Allen held the weapon and brought the handle down on her head hard, knocking her to the ground, unconscious. The cat stumbled back and fell on his backside, staring in shock.
'Allen! You were shot!' The redhead crawled up to him and moved the kimono so he could look at the wound.
'I-I...' Allen stuttered, eyes wide, 'I h-hit a girl!'
'I'm sure you'll be forgiven now hold still!'

Wow, bad chapter. You guys don't think it was too rushed do ya? It's just i don't wanna have Allen being captured the main deal of the story, cos the romance is supposed to be focussed on. Sorry if it seemed too fast.
REVEIW!
Heh, this chapter was so easy to write for some reason...
