Many thanks to those who read and reviewed this fic. I really appreciated it and this gave me inspiration to work on the next chapter and here the situation is about to escalate as Naegi is about to get in to trouble as the hostage takers are about to do something that would put the Luckster in danger, as naegi attempts to get help…so read on and…well, enjoy!
Ch. 7: Tasuke o Motomeru
The scene shifts at the Naegi house, where Komaru is shown to be sitting on bed with Yuta, where they are chatting, asking how they are doing as it is just a matter of hours before Christmas Eve arrive, and both are enjoying each other's company as Komaru's parents are having a dinner date and right now she is hoping that her elder brother would come home bringing the GOODIES that he promised.
There Yuta decided to keep her company and they began talking about how things are going.
"so, Komaru-chan…what's your brother doing?"
"Oh, he attended a party where Maizono-chan invited him…"
"Maizono? As in Maizono the idol?"
"Yup…and though I want to come along, onii-chan would not let me…"
"That's too bad…"
"But he promised that he bring me home sweets and food…"
"Well…he gave you a compromise, huh?"
"Sort of…"
The two younger teens chatted some more, and there Yuta decided to play with her and began to tickle her sides, causing her to laugh and she decided to retaliate by tickling him, and Yuta told her that it is not fair, but she said he started it and she is just retaliating, and the 13-year old girl kept the tempo going and this made the 12-year old boy to tickle her further.
This caused the two teens to burst into laughter as they try to tickle one another into submission, and Yuta is confident that he will win. Of course Komaru is not going to lose and she tries to tickle him some more and this made him struggle even further.
"Waaahh…stop!"
"I won't!"
"Take this!"
"Ha-ha-ha-ha..!"
"S-stop, Komaru-chan…"
"Take this!"
"Wa-hah-hah…stop!"
"Hee-hee-hee…"
As Yuta tries to get the upper hand, Komaru thinks of a way and came up with a naughty tactic and pulls down his shorts and attempted to pull down his brief, and Yuta blushed as he tries to stop her from making him go naked.
"Hey! Komaru-chan!"
"Hee-hee…"
"What are you doing?"
"I want to see your PEE-PEE…"
"No fair!"
"You peeked at my panties last week…"
"It was an accident!"
"Want to see what your PEE-PEE looked like…!"
The two younger teens continue to have fun, as they are unaware of the situation at the Christmas party, and Komaru is unaware that her elder brother is fighting for his life as he is facing a dozen terrorists inside a corporate building which claimed the life of one hostage.

The scene shifts at the Nekotami Building, where Munakata is awaiting news from his henchmen as they scrambled to look for Naegi, and the scene shows that Sakakura had just dumped Takugi's corpse in front of the hostages, and while some are shaken at what befell him, Maizono was brave enough to endure it, and sensed that Naegi is still alive seeing how the hostage takers are scrambling about.
Munakata then approached the hostages and told them that this would be their fate if they try to screw around with him, and yet he promised to let them go if they cooperate and said that if the hostages do, then there will not be any unnecessary bloodshed, which some of the hostages were starting to submit to his whim, as they do not want to get killed on Christmas Day.
"Okay…"
"You win…"
"Just don't hurt us…"
"We don't want to die…"
"Take my money…"
"You can have my virginity…"
"Hey! Knock it off!"
"Whatever…"
Maizono noticed that Takugi is the only one to be brought here as a corpse, and sensed that there is no word yet about Naegi, and she sighed in relief as she realize that he is safe for now, but then Satomi asks if Naegi is really trying to escape himself, but Maizono assured that he is doing what he could to get help, which Satomi is doubtful if Naegi is really that reliable.
"Are you sure about that, Sayaka?"
"Yes, Satomi-chan…"
"What if that boy is just…"
"I know Naegi-kun…he will do something to get help…"
"Really?"
"Uh-huh…"
"Still…I think that Naegi is a playboy…"
"He's not!"
As Ayaka watched her two bandmates squabble, Izayoi approached the girls and told them to shut up, aiming his katana at the girls, which caused the idol band members to go silent, and the scene shows that Soda is walking towards the stairs of the fire exit, heading down, and is carrying his newly-invented weapons as he sang a taunting rhyme, telling Naegi to show up.
"Hee-hee-hee…I'm gonna hack a hostage…so as to satiate my mechanical rage…and there I'm gonna get my wage…"
Sakakura, on the other hand, went to the 32nd floor, checking the area to see if Naegi is there or not. He kicked several tables to see if Naegi is there hiding. After a few minutes, Sakakura was pissed as he found nothing and went back to the elevator to proceed to the next floor while his henchmen uses the fire exit to find Naegi.
-x-
Meanwhile, Naegi is seen on the 34th floor, and he is panting for air after running through the stairs non-stop and he is starting to sweat, and on top of that, he is not wearing his shoes as he left them after catching wind of the terrorists coming in. Naegi is holding a bag of grenades and nothing else, and he accidentally left a gun after finding out that he ran out of bullets, and he is thinking of something that would help him call for help.
As Naegi looked around, he found a toolbox and opened it, where it contained a battery-operated drill gun and a pair of screwdrivers, and he took them with him as he felt that he might need it and as he looked around, he noticed that the elevator just opened where one of the terrorists, Leon Luwata, came out, where he took out his radio and contacted Munakata, saying that he just arrived at the 34th floor and is ready to commence his search for the target.
"Hey, boss…"
"Yes, Kuwata."
"Just arrived at the 34th floor."
"Your status?"
"None so far…I'm just about to search the place."
"If the situation calls for it…kill the escaped hostage…he took off with a bag of grenades."
"No problem…I'll use a metallic baseball to knock him out forever."
"fine."
After that, Kuwata took out his machine gun and began shouting around and told his target to come out, and invited him to play a game of BASEBALL, which he said that he will let him go if he beats him, but said that if the target loses, he will surrender to the boss and have himself get castrated in front of the hostages as a perfect Christmas present.
"So what do you think? Fair trade, huh?"
As Kuwata laughed foolishly, he did not notice that Naegi sneak up behind him, and he had a regretful look as he knows that there is no other way, and he activated the drill gun and drilled Kuwata's head on the right side, which penetrated his brain that resulted in Kuwata's instant death. Naegi then grabbed a chair and placed Kuwata's corpse on it and he grabbed his machine gun and then placed a pair of screwdrivers on the sides of the elevator door to keep the elevator in place, and there Naegi did a body search and found a walkie-talkie radio, which he took it and noticed a can of red paint, and he sighed as an idea came to his head and knows that it is not right for him to do this yet he felt that this would gain him an edge over the terrorists.
"Well…sorry about this…but then again…I'm doing this to save everyone inside this building…"
-x-
About 15 minutes later, the scene shifts back at the 30th floor where Sakakura came back to report to Munakata about being unable to find the target, and Munakata told him that it is okay as the rest of the henchmen will deal with him, and as the two men talked, Maizono wondered if Naegi managed to escape, and both Ayaka and Satomi wondered if Naegi really intend to call for help or he just escaped to save his own hide, in which Ayaka began to vouch for Naegi much to Satomi's annoyance.
Ayaka…!"
"What?"
"Are you actually defending that wimp?"
"But…that Naegi…he seemed to be genuinely concerned…"
"I'm betting that he ran off to save himself…"
"He would not…"
"I still don't trust him…he's cozy with Sayaka because she's an idol like us…"
"I don't think he's…"
By then the elevator door opened and the henchmen stared in surprise, and some of the female hostages shriek in horror, seeing the bloodied body of Kuwata as they did not expect another dead body to show up in full view.
"EEKKK!"
"KKYYAAAHHH!"
"HELP!"
"SOMEONE SAVE US!"
"WE'RE GONNA DIE!"
"LET ME OUT OF HERE!"
"MOMMY!"
"DADDY!"
The commotion attracted Munakata and Sakakura's attention and they went to the elevator where they saw Kuwata's corpse, and they saw the drilled hole on his right temple, and noticed that Kuwata is wearing a Christmas hat and his shirt had red pain written in a message.
"I HAVE THE MACHINE GUN…HO-HO-HO."
Soda and Izayoi arrived back via the fire exit and they saw the situation, and while Soda grinned as he sees a challenge, Izayoi is not pleased at this and said that the escapee may well be on his way out, which Munakata said that it will not be possible as the rest of the henchmen are guarding the lower floors, and are standing by near each floors' fire exit doors.
"I don't think our escaped hostage would come down."
"How sure are you?"
"We got guards on the lower floors…and even guarding the fire exit doors in each floors."
"Really?"
"That I am certain."
"…"
"I'll have our men alerted."
"Fine."
Unknown to the terrorists, Naegi is seen above the elevator carriage, secretly listening to the conversation and heard that Munakata mentioned the number of terrorists guarding the lower floors, ranging from the 29th floor to the 15th floor, which means that there are 14 more gunmen around, and with Munakata, Sakaura, Soda, Izayoi and three more gunmen on the 30th floor, Naegi concluded that at present, there are about 18 of them all in all.
As Soda and Izayoi dragged the dead body out of the elevator, the elevator became vacant and it began to move, where Naegi held on until he reached the 37th floor, where he made an exit via a shaft and walked towards the fire exit and he is panting while walking and running till he saw the sign, which states that he has reached the 40th floor.
Looking around, he sees that there are no gunmen around and decided to use this chance to call for help, and went outside where he is on the rooftop, and there he toggles with the radio and began to randomly try any frequency that would help him connect to the police department, and much to his LUCK, he managed to reach the frequency of the nearest police department where only emergency personnel can contact, and there Naegi attempted to make contact.
"Hello…mayday, mayday…Nekotami Tower is overtaken by armed terrorists…there are hostages here…send help!"
Naegi fumbled at first, but after a few more tries he managed to get through, and now he is contacting anyone there so he can make an emergency S.O.S. message to get help.
-x-
At the police department, the dispatcher is taken aback at someone contacting her through the emergency line, with two fellow officers keeping her company and they are taken aback at the fact that a male teenager is using the emergency line, and they listened as the dispatcher began to argue with Naegi over using the emergency line.
"Kid…this is not a good time to use a Christmas prank…"
"This is not a prank! There's a hostage situation here at Nekotami Tower!"
"This is an emergency line…if you want to do something, call 119…now get off the…"
"Look here! This is an emergency! There are about over a dozen armed terrorists here! One hostage was murdered!"
"Look kid…just because you're a minor doesn't mean you can get away with a prank like this, so stop using this line and…"
"LOOK HERE YOU BITCH!"
"What was that?"
"I mean business here! I managed to get away and am at the rooftop just to call for help!"
Naegi is dismayed that the dispatcher is not taking him seriously and is forced to use cuss words just to make her listen to him, and reiterated that the Nekotami Building is in the hands of terrorists, and the dispatcher insisted that Naegi should tell this to 119 and make a report there, and this caused Naegi to berate her for her ineptness, saying that one hostage was murdered and he is not sure if he could survive should the hostage takers find him.
"Listen, you brat…you can be charged for oral defamation and…"
"You listen! I may not be able to call you again if those terrorists managed to catch me! Call for SWAT and the police!"
"Then call 119 and…"
"STOP SPOUTING BULLSHIT HERE, YOU BITCH! EVERYONE INSIDE THE NEKOTAMI BUILDING IS IN DANGER OF GETTING KILLED!"
"And you listen here, you brat…"
"I mean it and you better call for help! If any of the hostages gets shot to death…I'll sue you!"
"Don't piss me off, you brat…!"
"Damn it!"
At the 30th floor, Munakata listens to the radio and Sakakura is baffled as to how Naegi managed to call for help, until Munakata deduces where Naegi is located, and told Sakakura that he is on the rooftop and tells him to shoot on sight if the situation warrants it. Sakakura said he would not mind it as he wants to kill him on sight for killing his fellow gunmen.
"Sakakura…head of the rooftop!"
"I'm on it."
"Kill him if the situation warrant it."
"Sure."
"Good."
"I intend to kill him. He killed our men…and I want to be the one to catch him…dead."
"Good luck."
"…"
Sakakura then leaves the scene flanked by two other gunmen, and Maizono watches on with worry seeing that Naegi is about to be attacked and prayed that he would be okay and not get hurt.
To Be Continued...
Hope you liked this chapter as a semi-action took place, as Naegi is forced to one of the gunmen and is about to be hunted down, while Komaru and Yuta are having fun, and this seems to imply that they may do something…NAUGHTY…
Preview:
The next chapter shows that Naegi attempts to call for help, and this in turn would cause more trouble should the gunmen manage to catch up with the Luckster…
See you in 3 to 4 weeks…
