Chapter 25 - Run Away: The Flamingo Returns

"CUTIE PIE~~~~ THERE YOU ARE! I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR YOU ALL DAY LONG!"

"Why doesn't that bastard just die already?" Agito cursed as the flamingo came running toward them.

"Ohhh~ Now that I look at you, you're not so bad either little one. You're just as cute as sweetie pie, even if your just a tad violent... I think I want you now~"

"Fuck... Kazu... Run." The shark grabbed Kazu and bolted as fast as he could.

"Goddamn it. He's not human!" Kazu yelled as he ran with Agito.

"Fuck!" The boy yelled as he knocked over a stack of cardboard boxes in hopes of slowing him down. "Gay guys are always worse!"

Kazu glanced back to see the flamingo leap over the boxes like they were nothing. "Holy shit!" he exclaimed as he continued running. "Isn't he still injured? How the hell is he moving so fast?"

"How the fuck would I know?"

"Agito, this way!" Kazu called as he pulled the boy into the carnival's house of mirrors, hoping they could confuse the pink haired demon.

"Fuck..." Agito mumbled, trying to catch his breath.

"Oooooh pretties~," called the flamboyant one as he followed them inside. Suddenly, an image of the Flamingo was projected on most of the mirrors surrounding the two boys.

"Shit. Alright, let's just find our way through this and hope that idiot sucks at mazes," Kazu stated as he looked around at their directional options.

"Fuck, this way." Agito grabbed Kazu's hand and led him through.

"I seee you~~~~"

"This is like some creepy fucked up nightmare," Kazu muttered as he followed the shark.

"Fuck, a badly done horror film?" Agito added as he saw the exit reflected in one of the mirrors. They walked toward it only to find the pink one standing in front of them. "FUCK!"

"I've got you now~~~~"

"Freakin' psychopath," Kazu cursed, backing up slightly. "Uh...back the way we came?" he questioned, looking to Agito.

"Fuck." The boy nodded as they began to run toward and out the entrance. After running for about ten minutes or so they seemed to have finally lost him. "He. Doesn't. Die."

"God, that freak is persistent. He doesn't take a hint either."

"Anyway, where are we?" Agito asked, looking around at the booths in front of them. All of them seemed to be carrying a variety of food.

"Uhh..." Kazu looked around. "Looks like the equivalent to a food court for this carnival. Everything here is food and candy."

"You hungry?" Agito asked as he reached for his wallet again.

"Uh...after all that running...yeah a little," the blond nodded.

"Then let's eat. Anything you want in particular?"

"Uh...not really. I'm not picky."

"Yakidango, Takoyaki, or Ikayaki?" Agito asked as he surveyed the nearest booths.

Kazu thought for a moment before deciding. "Uhh...Yakidango."

The shark nodded and walked over to the booth and bought two sticks for him and Kazu. By now it was already around six in the afternoon. "Here." Agito handed Kazu his dango and walked over to sit on a near by bench.

"Thanks," he replied as he sat down on the bench, next to the shark.

"That was... Fun," Agito mumbled as he bit off an odango.

Kazu smiled slightly, glancing at the boy. "Yeah, it was. I'm glad we came here today."

"Yeah, me too," he agreed with his mouthful.

The blond quickly finished the dango, being hungrier then he thought he was. He sighed and leaned his head back over the edge of the bench. "That's good. See? There's more to life then tearing people open," he stated with a smile. He was happy he was actually able to have a good time with Agito today.

"I guess, but tearing people open is still much more fun," Agito teased back with a laugh.

The blond laughed. "You're hopeless," he replied jokingly.

"I've always been hopeless."

Kazu leaned sideways and rested his head on Agito's shoulder. Glancing up at the shark, he lifted a finger to lightly tap his forehead. "Don't be stupid. I was kidding."

The shark smiled back. "Fuck... I know."

Silence fell over the two boys for a few minutes as they sat there, eyes closed, and enjoyed the peaceful moment as well as the comfort and warmth of each other's prescience.

Kazu opened his eyes for a moment. "Hey, Agito..." he called, pulling out his phone.

"Yeah?" Agito asked, looking over to the blond.

"Smile." He grinned and kissed Agito on the cheek as he lifted the phone in front of them and snapped a quick picture.

"You fucker! Gimme that!" Agito yelled as he reached for the phone.

Kazu lifted his phone high above his head, so the boy couldn't reach. "No way. I think this'll be my new background," he laughed.

"Fuck, Ikki opens that then we've got something to explain. Better than having them walk in on us again I guess…."

"Oh? I thought you didn't care if they find out? Besides, the chances of Ikki having my phone aren't all that likely. I have a lock on it too, so even if he did, he wouldn't be able to see it. I'm the only one getting into my phone."

"What's the code, your birthday?" Agito asked jokingly.

"Shut up. How stupid do you think I am?" He looked at his phone and observed the picture, immediately starting to laugh. "Ahaha~ the look on your face is priceless!"

"Shut up! Gimme that!" Agito reached for the phone again only to have Kazu pull it out of reach again.

"No. It's a good picture!"

"Fuck... Fine, then at least lemme see."

The blond kept his phone out of the shark's reach but turned it around so he could see it. Kazu was leaned in kissing Agito's cheek, his eyes closed, while Agito's expression was more or less a surprised 'what-the-fuck?'

"Che... Don't fucking surprise me like that."

Kazu laughed. "But candid shots are the best." He brought the phone back down and turned the camera back on. "Fine. How about a normal picture then?" he asked, leaning closer to the boy.

"Fine..." Agito put an arm around the blond and waited for the picture to be taken.

Kazu leaned his head close and held the phone up in front of them. "1...2...3.." he counted before taking the picture. He sat up straight again and reviewed the picture, holding it over so Agito could see it. "Mn...that turned out pretty good actually..."

"I guess... I'm not exactly photogenic."

"What are you talking about? You look fine," he replied as he set the picture as the phone's background.

"Sure, whatever.." the boy replied before leaning over to rest his head on the blond's shoulder.

Kazu smiled and put the phone away. "I don't take pictures very often but sometimes I really wish I did. There are just some moments when you wish you had something to show for the memory ya know? Today was really nice so I wanted something to remember it by..." he explained, though it's not like he really needed to.

"Yeah, I guess you should take as many pictures as you want. Memories are precious, but sometimes age takes away from it... Pictures will help you not forget."

The blond laughed at the shark's sudden change in opinion. "Yeah...exactly."

"Well, what do you wanna do now?"

"Mn...I dunno. I found the carnival. It's your turn to think of something."

Agito smirked. "Alright then, I say we find someplace more private."

The blond smiled. "Well...I do believe my house is empty..." he stated suggestively.

Just as Kazu finished talking, his phone began to ring. "Kazuma? It's onee-chan. I'm gunna be spending the night at a friend's house so I'll be home around noon tomorrow. Have fun,~" Sachiko giggled suggestively. "Ja ne Kazuma. Be a good wife~"

"What the-Onee-san!" Kazu yelled into the phone, rather irritated at his sister's last comment. It was too late though, as she had already hung up. "I'll kill her..." he muttered in annoyance.

"What?" Agito asked curiously.

"Nothing," Kazu grumbled. 'He'd never let it go if he heard that one...' Kazu's expression changed to a more cheerful smile. "It seems my sister won't be home at all tonight."

"Well, then I guess we can have some fun," Agito replied as his smirk grew wider. The shark stood up, grabbing Kazu's hand.

The blond laughed, somewhat slyly, at the shark's expression. "Sounds like a plan," he agreed, as they headed towards the Mikura house.
