Dangerous Love
Day Twenty-Nine: Dawn
After the conflict the previous day, Luca had talked Aomine's ear off about how certain situations needed to be approached. Aomine only rolled his eyes at Luca's precautions and eventually agreed to follow the hitman's next plan – only if he would quit bugging Aomine.
Luca agreed, with a smile on his face.
"I bet you're really pleased with yourself." Aomine commented, his eyes narrowed. The hitman, who was standing across from him just nodded, making Aomine even more annoyed. The dark blue haired man pushed himself from the wall and brushed past Luca in favour of taking a seat on a bench.
The two were currently situated outside a company building in downtown Tokyo. Luca had read over the files he could get into back at the Cavalieri di Guerra Tokyo Base and learned they had close ties with this one company. The hitman was sure they worked together, although during his time there, he had not heard anything about it.
Luca sighed. He joined Aomine on the bench. The chocolate-brown haired man ran his fingers through his hair. The two were currently camping outside of the tall building, waiting for when it closed and most of the employees went home for the day. Luca told Aomine it would be better this way – it would involve less civilians. Which meant less casualties.
The emerald eyed man pulled his laptop from his messenger bag and began typing away, distracting himself by reading through the files. "Aomine, you know it won't just end even if we take down Vincenzo, right?" Luca spoke quietly, almost carefully. He glanced at the tanned man from the corner of his eyes, searching for a change in expression. "Vincenzo and his gang are apart of a bigger scale, not so much here but back in Italy..."
"I know," Aomine grunted. The man shifted in his seat, craning his neck to stare at the height of the building, seeing the fluffy white clouds sailing in the blue sky. "But we need to do this for the Kasamatsu's. He already took so much from them; we need to get rid of him so he can't take any more."
"Very admirable of you," Luca smiled.
Aomine glared at the Italian, sensing a hidden meaning behind his words. "Whatever." Aomine scoffed, turning his attention to the revolving doors of the building. He watched people enter and exit for a matter of minutes, idly listening to the tapping of keys coming from Luca's laptop.
After another hour went by, Aomine stood up. He stretched his stiff muscles and stifled a yawn. "I think we're in the clear. We want to be in there before they actually lock up, right?"
"Yeah." Luca nodded.
The hitman shut his laptop and slipped it back in his bag. He stood and stretched just as Aomine had. Luca smoothed out the wrinkles in his dark grey suit and fastened his tie, wanting to look professional as they were entering a company building. He glanced at Aomine and resisted the urge to roll his eyes at Aomine's lack of fashion. The man was dressed in a black suit which was left unbuttoned, showing off his royal blue button-up shirt that matched his eyes and hair. His black tie was left loose around his neck. He gave off an overall bored and unimpressed look and aura, which made Luca sigh.
Before the brunette even got the chance to tell Aomine to make himself more presentable, the man had grabbed his briefcase and headed to the entrance, leaving Luca behind. "Oi!" Luca called, speed-walking to catch up to Aomine. "Don't just charge in there, we need to be... Not suspicious."
"Yeah, I know." Aomine retorted, motioning to the briefcase. "That's what this is for."
Luca gave him a funny look, "There's nothing even in there, though."
It was true. Earlier that morning while Luca was packing his laptop and other things away, he noticed Aomine pull out a business-man type briefcase. Aomine dumped out the contents which were some papers and a couple pens before snapping it closed. Luca had given Aomine an odd look but did not question the tanned assassin.
"It doesn't matter," Aomine half-turned to Luca, shrugging his shoulders. "It's not like they need to know." He cocked his head at the secretaries at the front desk. Aomine went to the left and headed for the elevators.
He pressed the button and looked back to Luca who was staring at the digits which told them what floor the elevator was currently at. It was slowly making its way down, with the occasional stop to pick up more people. The two stepped aside as employees and other visitors exited the elevator, leaving it empty.
Aomine and Luca stepped inside and the latter pressed the button to close the doors so they were the only two inside. Aomine glanced up at the camera and blocked part of its vision with his briefcase, stretching and yawning tiredly as Luca inserted a key and began to over-ride the controls. Once he finished, Aomine lowered his briefcase and they waited in silence as they headed to the top floor.
"Remind me what this guys name is?" Asked Aomine as he shifted his weight from one foot to the other.
Luca glanced at his watch, mentally counting the seconds. "His name is Abe Hisato. I've read that he has met with Vincenzo on multiple occasions, as they share the same interests in the future of the underground world here." The brunette explained. He tore his eyes away from his watch, hoping that they would get the information they needed – as well as be done with Vincenzo all before dawn the next day. But it seemed to be pushing it.
The hitman straightened the closer they got to the top floor. "Are you ready?" He asked, looking at the blue eyed man from the corner of his eyes. Aomine nodded, and Luca smirked. "Good." He approved, holding his chin up as the bell dinged, the doors sliding open.
"Remember: We get the information without causing a disturbance. Don't leave any traces and don't harm anyone that-"
"-That doesn't need to be hurt. I know." Aomine drawled painfully, as if he had been told this over and over again. Luca shook his head as they stepped out. He put a charming smile on his face, nudging Aomine to do the same.
The darker skinned male sighed before

After spending some time with his brothers and after Kazuki decided he wanted to be a rebellious teenager and hide away in his room, Kasamatsu went upstairs to his own room. He sat on his bed, not knowing what to do. Yuuta had decided he wanted to watch a movie with their mother while Naoki napped. The older brother would have watched the movie but it was one he had seen at least a hundred times before because it was a favorite of Yuuta's. So Kasamatsu excused himself and headed up to his room.
The teenager looked at the boxes which he pushed into the far corner of his room. He opened a couple and rummaged through them, looking for specific things earlier but Kasamatsu had yet to actually unpack his things. He briefly wondered if he should attempt to unpack but decided against it, mostly because he was too lazy to.
Kasamatsu got off his bed and reached for his bag which was shoved under his bed. Once he grabbed it, the steel-blue eyed teenager fished out the USB drive. He kicked his bag back under his bed and plopped back down on his bed, staring at the device which caused so much chaos and ruin. Kasamatsu's eyes flicked to his laptop, wondering if he should take a look or not.
One side of the teen thought it was something he should not do but the other side told him he should. After a brief mental struggle with himself, Kasamatsu eventually hopped to his feet and sat at his desk. He opened his laptop and lined the USB up with the port. He paused, hesitant.
'I need to know what's on this – what dad died protecting...' The noirette decided.
Kasamatsu put the USB in and the little screen popped up, asking what he wanted to do. The teen opened the files, eyes gliding over the words and images that popped up on the screen. It was almost too much, having to read about past events and future plans they had for Tokyo's underground world. Kasamatsu's mind spun as he read about targets and area's they owned or planned to over-throw. Drugs, weapons, and human trafficking.
It was disturbing.
The young man tore his eyes away, his hands shaking slightly. After a few minutes, Kasamatsu looked back to the screen, selecting different files. Files which contained precious information about the Knights of War. The information ranged from some of the bases and who they had ties with, allies and enemies alike – as well as the names of each major member.
Kasamatsu breathed out slowly, lowering his eyes. He stared at his hands which rested on his lap, his fingers clutching the fabric of his shorts. The noirette watched his knuckles go white from squeezing his fingers tight, trying to stop his shaking. Once Kasamatsu calmed himself down, he saved a copy and pulled the USB drive out once the files were done downloading.
The teen grabbed a tissue and wrapped it around the USB, cleaning it from his finger prints. He went downstairs and into the kitchen. Kasamatsu put some disposable gloves on and then put the USB in a zip-lock baggy.
Kasamatsu passed by the living room, moving quickly. Before he could safely pass, his mother turned around and called him back. Kasamatsu flinched and turned to his mother, walking up slowly. "Yeah?" He questioned.
"Where are you going in such a rush, Yukio?" Aiko asked, a worried look on her face.
Kasamatsu faltered. "It's-... I just-... I need some air." He whispered, finding it difficult to tell his mother the real reason he needed to go out. He shifted awkwardly on his feet, gloved hand gripping the bag tightly.
Aiko gave her son a look, her lips forming a tight line. "Yukio..." She expressed, eyebrows drawn up as she fretted over her oldest son. "I don't want you going out alone. Akashi-san said it's still dangerous, and-"
"It's fine. I'll be okay, mom. I promise. I just need to get some air and I'll be back soon. I'll bring my phone with me, okay?" Kasamatsu stared at his mother, hating how he made her look so worried.
Aiko sighed once more. "Okay... But if you aren't back in half an hour, I'm going to call those boys and send a search party out for you." His mother warned, giving Kasamatsu a firm glare.
"Okay..." Kasamatsu nodded, although he felt his mother was going overboard. But he knew she would because she did not want to lose her son again. Kasamatsu gave his mother a reassuring smile. "I'll be back soon." He repeated before he spun around on his heel.
He put his shoes on and left their new house, jogging down the long driveway and passing through the big gates which blocked them off from the rest of the world. Kasamatsu paused, looking back to their new home. 'I just need to do this quickly, then I'll return as soon as I can, mom.'
Kasamatsu took off in the direction which lead to the busy streets lined with stores and various shops, unaware of the shadow trailing behind him.
Poor Kasamatsu and his entire family. Why do I do this to them...? TuT
Oh, and my birthday is tomorrow, hooray~ I wonder how old I'll be before I stop writing yaoi stuff lol.
