Chapter 15 – you have just now declared your own death warrant.
"Touma…san…" I trailed off as I stared at his hands clung onto me more to keep from violently charging at the man behind us.
Somehow, we had come to an understanding on when I should leave. I would have to follow Touma's lead on this one.
At that moment, my eyes became slits as Touma kept his back to the man approaching us.
"My, my, Seguchi-san, such a hot temper as always." The man in a black suit laughed as he brought a cigarette to his mouth and puffed it. "Are you going to _kill_ me too because I hurt Yuki Eiri?"
He shook his head with a disgusted attitude.
I held onto Touma's arms to keep him from becoming too angered by the mysterious guy who had followed us all this time apparently.
"You're not going to do the same to Tatsuha-kun, Kawai-san," Touma seethed through his teeth.
"What? Still bitter that I tried to drive you and Yuki Eiri apart?" He tilted his head as his shades reflected my face under the streetlamp.
What…what is this man talking about?!
"I…I don't understand," I whispered to Touma.
But he kept silent and refused to answer me all the same.
So, I continued to look at Touma in confusion as his bent head still remained staring at the ground and all I glanced at were a mess of blond bangs.
"Tatsuha-kun is just fighting for what's his own happiness!" Touma shouted in a harsh whisper.
Tap, tap, tap.
The one called Kawai-san stepped closer and closer.
"But you didn't get to keep Eiri-san in the end. Isn't that sad?" He clicked his tongue as he crossed his arms while crunching his cigarette butt on the ground with his heel. "And then you get married to Mika Uesugi-"
"GACK!" Kawai-san gasped as Touma sicked his hand over his throat. He turned his head as he whispered as if a shinigami himself, "STOP IT."
Kawai-san stared at Touma with snake eyes almost still toying with his emotions from his expressions and smirk.
"Hit a nerve, didn't I?" he struggled to say as he gasped for more air. "I wanted to see how far I could go til you cracked…again. Hahaha. You've gotten a little better. That's why I called you Seguchi-san and not –kun."
"I'm not the little boy you always thought I was. And I don't regret killing that disgusting Yuki you loved so well." His grasp became a little tighter as his knuckles became white while his body shook violently in an aura of red. "You always underestimated me, Kawai-san. Don't make me laugh with the weakness you call strength."
"Years ago, I was just told to bring Yuki back…without you." he replied with determination. "I'm just fulfilling my duty to Uesugi-sama."
My eyes opened wide with shock.
"And I'm fulfilling mine to both his sons," Touma replied just as quickly.
"Your desires plague your vision, Seguchi-san. That was always your one and only flaw."
Ignoring this statement, Touma continued,"If you come back for Tatsuha, I won't just kill you with my bare hands, I'll torture you and make it seem like you committed suicide."
He then tightened his grip a little more. "I'm so upset, I could just kill you right here and now."
"Why don't you? Then you won't have to regret it later when I _do_ get him. You know I will…" he laughed as he choked at the same time.
Then, Kawai-san tried to kick Touma as Touma went under his arm and held his twisted wrist in back of Kawai with his other arm over the man's chest. Still keeping his cool, Touma commanded, "Go, Tatsuha! Take Ryuichi and run! I'll find you later!"
I nodded in thanks as I ran back into the hotel as fast as I could.
How will I tell Ryuichi?! Wh-
HIT.
I stumbled to the ground as someone brought me to their car and wrapped my mouth with masking tape. As I stared out the window listlessly, we turned the corner. I found Touma watching me in horror still holding onto Kawai-san. Kawai-san looked directly at me and smiled the grin that only bastard's have when they've completed their dirty mission.
I can't believe someone has outsmarted Touma…
But he has just signed his own death warrant by doing so…
At that moment, Touma's lips didn't shout my name.
His lips moved to say, "Ryuichi…"
I closed my eyes at the thought.
I knew something was suspicious when things were a bit quiet…
I knew I was running out of time with Ryuichi…
Touma's words repeated again in my head: "No…You don't have _any_ idea. You may think I'm awful on Zero mode, but he's even worse than me. Even _I_ fear that day."
My eyes became focused as my mouth closed slightly, "Ryuichi…"
I wasn't afraid of seeing my father. But of my Ryuichi's reaction…
Ryuichi…
What will you do when you find out I won't be returning to you tonight?
I then shuddered at the thought.
To be continued…

Author's note: Well, I just wanted to play around with the idea that because Touma was the one that helped kill the 'original bastard' Yuki, then there had to be some sort of disapproval for associating with him, right?
