I am so sorry for not updating this sooner. I just haven't been able to type as much. That and I haven't really been thinking about this fill. Yesterday, when I wasn't aloud on my laptop, I was like, "Crap. Caged Animal. I need to update that." So, yeah. Typing now.

Oh, apparently, in the novels, Kadota went to the same elementary school as Shinra and Shizuo. However, in the anime, it was high school. I'm using the anime reference for this. Another thing. Shizuo has his not breaking his bones-ness because they tested his strength as well, and so he can endure it.

Actually typing now, before this headache overcomes me.

Oh yes, my other Durarara fanfics are on hold because I can't seem to get into the right mindset with them. I blame not being able to get on my laptop enough lately. So, sorry to those who are reading Collapsed and Coma, you have to wait even longer.

Summery, disclaimer, and prompt are in chapter one.

Kadota sighed when his cell rang. It gave him an excuse to step away from the two otakus' ramblings. It was something about something he had tuned out and not really paid attention to.

"Hello?"

"Ah, Dotachin. I'm glad you picked up!" Kadota frowned at both the unwanted nickname and the chirpy voice on the other end of the phone. "One, don't call me Dotachin. Two, what do you need this time?" Kadota heard something that sounded like a gasp. "Dotachin, I'm hurt. But, I do need something. I need you and that other guy, or possible just you, to drive your van over here to Shinra's and take me home. Do what you can to keep the otakus away."

"Izaya, you know that there's no way I'd ever be able to keep Erika and Walker from coming along. Besides them, Saburo doesn't want to part with his van. If you need a ride back to your place, either call a taxi, or bear with them." "Fine, fine. I'll bear with the otakus and the van-loving man. Besides, I couldn't keep him all tied up if we were to take a taxi, ne?" "Wait, keep who tied up?" However, Kadota's question went unanswered. Izaya had already hung up.

"Dotachin was talking with IzaIza and IzaIza has someone tied up and we have to go and pick them both up and drop them both off at IzaIza's place. I'm assuming this tied up person is a male, considering that IzaIza said can't keep him tied up. Dotachin, do you know what this means?" "That you were eavesdropping on my phone calls again? And don't call me Dotachin!" "It means that we're starting something of BL origin! Soon, IzaIza and this unknown man will be making sweet passionate love together. IzaIza will stop being so mean to everyone, and I'll know a real life gay couple!"

"Erika, there's also the chance that Izaya is just going to use this man for sex. But then, wouldn't it be some sort sadistic, or possibly masochist relationship? There are just so many different possibilities." "Walker, that's right! We'll have to assess the man once we see him. Then, we'll identify him as seme or uke. Maybe, he's one of those kinds that can be either, like how IzaIza is."

Kadota just groaned. They haven't even gotten the van started, and they were at it. He could only imagine what they'd be like when they saw whoever it was that Izaya wanted escorted back to his place. After a moment's thought, Kadota decided that he couldn't imagine what they'd be like, and didn't want to.

While waiting for Kadota and the others, Izaya took the time to observe Shizuo. He definitely was different when he couldn't do a thing to protect himself. Well, he was different when he's restrained. For one thing, Izaya had excepted the male to struggle against the shadows, no matter how futile it was. Instead, the man had done something he hadn't excepted. He immediately gave up.

As soon as Celty's shadow ropes wrapped around him, he just stopped his rampage. Every time Shinra walked past, he flinched or whimpered. Shinra even pulled out another needle and got a blood sample. The only thing that Shizuo did was clench his eyes shut tight, as if he were excepting pain. He probably was. Not once while Izaya was observing him did Shizuo look up at Izaya. He never asked to be let go. He didn't apologize. He didn't say he'd be good. Nothing.

Seems as if they messed with this human more than I originally thought.

Izaya didn't know whether he was glad that he was going home, or upset that his observation had been interrupted when Kadota finally appeared. The otakus were impatiently waiting in the back of the van, and Saburo was still in the driver's seat.

Shizuo didn't react when Kadota arrived. Kadota himself took one look at Shizuo before asking. "Alright, who is he?" Izaya giggled. "This is Shizu-chan. Shizu-chan, say hi to Dotachin." Immediately, Shizuo replied with a hello, though it was quiet.

"What'd you do to him?" Izaya giggled again. "Ah, Dotachin, I haven't done a thing for him, except rescue him from the one's who did do this. He's a bit violent, and doesn't seem to be very found of anything that reminds him of scientists, which is why I need you to drive us back home!" Before Kadota could claim BS, Shinra interjected. "For once it's true. Izaya found and rescued this man. Please, take them home so I can try to salvage any of the equipment that's left in the room."

Erika squealed as soon as she saw the man Izaya and Kadota brought with them from Shinra's apartment. "Walker! Walker! Look! He's just perfect! He matches IzaIza quite well, doesn't he?" "Ya. I can see it too. He looks so submissive, so it seems like he's a uke. Then again, there's the build, so he could be seme." "Walker, how many times have I told you that it's more than about build? I know that you're only recently into yaoi, but still! Ah, there's almost here! I can't wait to talk with him!"

Not a moment later did the doors to the back of the van open. Izaya and Kadota got the man inside before Izaya followed, while Kadota took his place in the passenger seat. Shizuo huddled up as much as he could, seeing as he was restrained. Really, he wasn't comfortable around most people. He wasn't comfortable around anyone but Izaya. Even then, he wasn't always. That's saying something, seeing as he had only been free for about two days.

"IzaIza, did ya find him like this, or did you do this to him yourself?" Izaya blinked, wondering if he should humor the two. Yes. Izaya's lips curled into a smirk. He'd humor the two. It'd be fun, seeing the both of their reactions.

"Ah. This man. His name is Shizuo Heiwajima and I rescued the poor thing from a life of being experimented on. Poor thing was surprised by sunlight when it woke him up yesterday. I call him Shizu-chan. And he's going to be my bestest friend in the whole wide world." Yes. Humor the two. Tell some truth and some lie. Shizuo was just an interesting human. Someone he'd pass of to some institution, or perhaps Shinra, when he got bored.

Erika Squealed. "Do you think that you guys might ever become more than friends?" "And if you two did, who'd be top and who'd be bottom?" Walker added.

"Ah. I don't think we'll ever become more than friends. After all, I love all humans. He's but another one. I can't possible put one above them all. It'd be unfair to everyone else. Besides, even if I do have sexual needs, I'm not attracted to anyone. Let them think that if they want."

Ah, there it was. A spark in Karisawa Erika's eye. A challenge, if you would. That's something he had been looking for. Messing with the girl was so much fun.

"But IzaIza could find that he's become attached to anyone he repeatedly uses for his sexual urges. And this man is living with you. Why not? Then you two could live together. You'd heal him and teach him to trust while he uses what he has left to show you that being nice to people wouldn't hurt."

Kadota sighed and rubbed his temples. Why? Why did Izaya have to get her started? Now he'd have to listen to this the whole time they were driving from Shinra's to Izaya's, as well as Erika and Walker discussing how to convince 'IzaIza' otherwise.

The whole time, Shizuo just stayed huddled up, saying nothing, not really understanding what it was that they were talking about.

So, what do you all think? Not bad. Sorry for not updating. Lack of remembering/when I do remember, I can't get to the laptop.
