Last Mission: Part 1
Muraki and Tsuzuki were probably the most paranoid at the moment.
Having lost to the bet, they are now subjected to Maria's and Hisoka's every whim. In their situation it was not good. They didn't like the sympathetic looks thrown towards them or the evil smirk gracing Watari's face as they entered JuOhCho. Watari was probably still mad about the whole partner thing for the last three months. Maybe Watari was in on this bet too…
One thought went through their minds. 'We're so dead!'
They have no idea how right they were.
-X-
Currently, Hisoka and Maria were planning Tsuzuki and Muraki's demise. They already came up with them being Watari's guinea pigs as promised for the next three months. Of course, this isn't going to be well.
Just then, Maria came up with an idea as the two victims came in. She smirked. Although the plan wasn't evil, it was better for her.
She did deserve a vacation herself.
-X-
"We're going on vacation. So you two will have to watch over this sector and Watari's sector. Luckily nothing happens in Kyoto so you two have a big break. Anyways, if you destroy property, your paychecks would pay for it, and if you start fighting each other, your paychecks would come to us. Any questions?"
Watari and Hisoka took a step back from Maria. They were rather scared at the moment. Maria can be scary when she wants to be. Maybe this vacation idea wasn't so bad after all. Maria needed to cool down.
The two, Muraki and Tsuzuki, shook their heads, knowing they had no say in it. They were lucky that Maria spoke for them all. Otherwise they would be in even deeper shit that consisted of constant embarrassment from Hisoka, who was a crafty little 'cute' devil. They were thinking too far ahead of themselves as they realized that maybe that there was more to this. There is no way that Hisoka wouldn't sit back and accept Maria's proposal.
They waited for about a minute… Hisoka never added anything.
Karma seemed to be good to them today. They quietly left informing Tatsumi of their current mild dilemma. It was considered mild since Hisoka didn't add any other extras on top of Maria's. Unless Hisoka had an ulterior motive, then they'd be screwed.
"Well, let's get to planning!" Maria stated happily grabbing her colleagues' wrists.
"What do you mean? I thought we were going on vacation?" Watari asked lagging a bit.
"Who said they'd get off the hook that easy?" Hisoka added.
Watari reminded himself, too many times to count, not to get on their bad side. He kind of felt sorry for Muraki and Tsuzuki. But then again…
Not really…
-X-
Watari was happily excluded from the 'plan'. He didn't want to face Muraki or Tsuzuki in fear of laughing. They had no idea what was going to happen to them. It was amusing. He hoped Hisoka and Maria would be a bit gentler to their partners. Hisoka and Maria kept him from knowing anything incase the two try to pry it out of him. They were very smart. Although he did catch a bit of their conversation:
"NO!"
"Why not…full proof."
"Because…bite me…"
"Oh…but it's good…"
"Maria…"
"C'mon…"
"Fine…push it…"
-X-
It was quiet.
Too quiet…
Muraki found it unnerving. He took a long drag of his cigarette. It was a perk being a shinigami; they couldn't die. So, smoking too much won't affect him. Although, he did find it contradicting… He was a doctor, yet he never really took care of his own health.
Anyways, he was waiting for something. He did hear some shouts of argument within the bureau from his place outside. He thought it sounded like Terazuma and Tsuzuki. Muraki wondered how they became a squabbling pair. He didn't dwell on it further. It was amusing. What he was really waiting for was the-
BOOM!
And there it is. He stood up from the bench under the sakura and walked back inside the building. He had to see whom the Kagetsukai was scolding. It was either Watari or the squabbling pair.
When he walked in, he was rather disappointed. It was just Watari wasting money on blowing up the lab. It was rather hard finding entertainment when you're dead, unless, of course, you're the one causing the chaos. He was about to leave until he heard the voice of his partner.
"What was that for, you loony crackpot?" Hisoka yelled at the scientist. Anyone would too, after almost being charbroiled. He was grateful that Maria took him out of harms way.
"I'm sorry! I told you I didn't know if it'll explode." Watari tried reasoning with the irate shinigami.
"Next time, try it without any of us in there." With that, Muraki watched as Hisoka fumed and started stomping his way out of the building, Maria hot on his heels.
Was it just his imagination or did Maria throw him a vampyric smirk?
-X-
Hisoka fumed. Of course, after almost being charbroiled, one would be. He was vaguely aware that Maria was following and he didn't care. One of these days, he was going to make sure Watari is tied down while being blown up. Okay… he just needed to calm down.
Deep breaths, he told himself.
It seemed to do justice, calming him down a bit. He sighed before walking in a calmer pace.
It was too late for him to notice the malicious presence behind him.
-X-
Muraki got his wish for the second time that day. For some odd reason, Terazuma and Tsuzuki started fighting, which resulted in having part of the library destroyed. It was an amusing sighed to see Tatsumi yelling at them. The Kagetsukai was indeed one not to be trifled with. He sighed before walking away after Tatsumi's rant. It wasn't amusing anymore.
He walked towards the office and shut the door not wanting to hear more arguments that would suddenly sprout out. He glanced at the cigarette in his hand. It reminded him that he needed to buy more. But as the thought about it, he remembered Tatsumi deducting some of his hard-earned pay. He didn't notice that he crunched up the box as his eye twitched in annoyance at the thought.
He took deep breaths to calm himself down. It worked.
Muraki then skimmed through the room. There was nothing out of the ordinary save for the pile of paperwork that needed to be done. That was what Hisoka usually did. His mouth twitched to a smile at a brief memory. He shook it out of his head before stepping out. He paused at the door as he caught something out of the corner of his eye. There was a note conveniently lying on his desk. It seemed innocent enough.
Curious, Muraki picked it up and began to read. He was grateful that his curiosity won in the end.
The note was a kidnapper's note.
It was no surprise that Tatsumi then called for a meeting.
