(If you don't know who this is by yet, you are hereby oficially blond!)
(It's a good thing, trust us.)
Now read!


Suoh stiffened slightly when he first felt somthing brush against his shirt. Remaining perfectly still, he tried to gather the shadows he was cloaked in closer.
Nothing.

Shifting silently, he felt out with his senses, golden eyes contracted then dialated using what little light there was to make out the outline of the figure in front of him. Then his nose cault a whiff of something hauntingly familiar. Breathing in slightly, he instantly relaxed.

/Nokoru!/ He was the only one he knew that would even dream of using that combination of sents in his shampoo! Suoh smiled slightly. /And just his luck that such a combination works! And so well for that matter!/

Suoh breathed in a again, yes, it was definatly his Kaichou. His attention was brought back to the present when he senced that Nokoru was reaching out again. Smile widening, Suoh to reached out and enfolded the slender questing hand into his own.

/Yes, Nokoru, I am here as I will always be./

"I know."

Suoh blinked at the soft whisper. /I didn't just say that out loud, did I?/

"I know why you're here, Suoh."

Suoh's expression was at war with itself, batteling beween 'Well Duh', confusion, worry, and intense relief at being with his One again.

"But you can't take me back now..I can't go with you even though I want to..." Everything else died and shock took its place on Suoh's face as his jaw practically hit the floor. Dragging it back up by sheer force of will, he swallowed. "W-Wha..."

Nokoru hung his head "I signed a contract Suoh... I'm there's...I couldn't let them hurt you...not...after..." Expression firmed, Suoh tugged gently on their linked hands, causing Nokoru to fall against him. Quietly he wrapped his arms around the shaking blond. Knowing that words were not his strong point, and most likely useless anyway, he simply held him close and gave what little comfort he could even as he made his disision.
/Those bastards will pay./

Nokoru didn't want to see him leave, but the sooner he did, the less painful it would be. Although the hurt he was feeling now was unmeasurable. It would last forever, and ultimately destroy him.

He held on to Suoh tighter, silently saying his last goodbyes.

"What a nice reunion."

Nokoru felt Suoh slightly twitch at the voice, and they both looked towards the man. The lights turned on, revealing more men standing behind their leader. Nokoru shivered and Suoh glared at the man who had taken his Kaichou.

"Hand him over, and you are free to go."
"NO."

Nokoru half-gasped in surprise. "Suoh...y...you...don't...no, you CAN'T..." The man merely grinned. "You really have made friends, Imonoyama. That wasn't your style last time." Suoh's gold eyes widened a little on the words 'last time'. He looked back to Nokoru, who held his gaze for a second before turning away.

Suoh growled at Nokoru's kidnapper and brought out several throwing knives. The man chuckled harshly. "And a Takamura, no doubt."

"Just let him go, Kadowakashi," Nokoru muttered, calling him by what he was rather than a name, "I'll stay like I promised. Please..."

"You broke the rules," the kidnapper sneered, "You weren't supposed to contact anyone from your school. Therefore," he took out a gun and aimed it at Nokoru, "we have the right to do as we wish with you."

/Not again...!!!/

/*BANG*/

/Not this time!/ Suoh growled to himself when he saw the gun. /I let this happen once...never again!/

/*BANG*/

Pushing Nokoru away from him, he lept in the other direction. rolling to his feet, he lunged, a throwing knife in each hand, holding them backwards, eyes flashing. In the dim light from the doorway, the man shot again and again, trying to hit the darting figure that bore down on him with cool vengence in sparkling golden eyes.

/You harmed my One,/ Suoh's hatred burned cold. /Prepare to die./

At last, the bullets ran out and Kadowakashi was left shooting blanks. Suoh kept coming. Coming face to face with the man, he knocked the gun out of his hand. Sweeping down low he slashed at his legs, leaving a knife embedded deep in his calf. The man howled and brought his arms down to strike Suoh in the back. Expecting this, Suoh swung around behind him, slashing savagly across the man's lower back at the spine's base.

Spinning back out, he was face to face with one of the henchmen. Caught unprepared he was thrown into the far wall, his earlier head case coming back full foce and more as his head connected solidly with the harsh brick. Falling limply to the ground, he lay dazed for a moment 'till he was pulled sharply to awarness by Nokorus sharp cry.

Growling, Suoh picked himself up and swung around again to face the sound. Eyes wide, he watched as the main tormenter had come up behind Nokoru and was now holding Suoh's own shuriken to his One's pale throat. Hissing like a large cat, Suoh abruptly fell silent. Poised in a fighting crouch, he waited.

Kadowakashi grinned as he caressed Nokoru's cheek with a bloody hand, leaving tracks like crimson tears. If suoh had beed a cat, his fur would be standing on end and his back arched as far up as possible, but he remained silent.

/Nokoru.../
