******************

Aya stood on the tips of his toes, putting the finishing touches on the basket in front of him.

" All right, that's done." he said, then moving on to the one next to it, Aya and the other members of Weiß were in a large ball room, tables lined the walls and on every table there was supposed to be at least two baskets of the most beautiful flowers available.

"Ten down, 'bout a hundred or so to go." Yoji said beside him with a sigh. "Why'd we take this job any way?" he asked.

" Because it pays good money," Ken answered him from the other side of Aya, " Besides it's not that bad."

" No. It's just really, really tedious." Yoji whined.

"Quite whining and focus on what were supposed to be doing." Aya told Yoji as he watched Hirofumi from the corner of his eye. " We have a lot of things to do."

" Aya's right Yoji." Ken agreed with him. " We're supposed be working."

" But still..." Yoji began but was cut of by Aya glaring at him. " You're right." he gave up.

The three worked in silence for a while. Then a blue haired girl appeared. " Hiya," she said happily, " I didn't know you were the florists that they hired for the party."

" Hi Ouka-san" Ken said to her, " What are you doing here? Class field trip or something?"

Ouka shook her head. "No, this is where my dad works, he's a pretty powerful politician."

" That's cool," Ken said as he finished up on the basket he was working on. " Did your brother enjoy the flowers?" he asked as he walked over to the next basket.

" He loved them. Freesias are his favorite."

Yoji watched the two and grinned " Looks like Ken's fondness for little kids is kicking in."

" That's rude," Ouka scowled at him." You should work on your manners, maybe then you won't look thirty."

" Oh come on!" Yoji laughed, " A sexy hunk like me looking like a thirty-year-old? Come on!"

Ouka stuck out her tongue and mumble something along the lines of " Old geezer."

" I heard that!" Yoji yelled, giving her a look. For some reason this caused Ouka to laugh. " Hey, what's so funny?"

" That look just made is the same look my grandma makes whenever she yells at the dog." she said between fits of giggles, sinking to the floor.

"Ouka-chan are you being rude to the florists?" asked a blond boy who just walked into the room.

Yoji pointed at Ouka, who was know rolling on the floor. " Yeah, she's distracting us."

" Speak for yourself" Ken mumbled, " You're always distracted."

" Am not!" Yoji protested.

" Whatever you say." Ken said as help Ouka up. " So is he your boyfriend?" Ken asked teasingly, gesturing towards the boy.

Ouka shook her head. "No that's my Aniki, Mamoru, he's the one I bought the flowers for."

" What? No way he looks younger than you." Yoji said staring at the boy, " Are you sure his older than you."

" We'll we're twins so I could be older but I've just always called him Aniki." Ouka shrugged.

" So he won a programming contest? Wow he must be really smart then." Yoji said impressed.

" I'm not that smart," he said, a little embarrassed.

" That's not true!" said Ouka, " All my brothers are super smart! One's a political genius, the other's a medical genius, and Mamoru-chan is a computer one!"

" Ouka-chan, you're embarrassing me." Mamoru flushed pink under the praise that he was getting.

"And what are you a genius at?" Yoji asked sarcastically " Insults or being a brat?" Apparently he had taken a liking to her.

Ouka stuck her tongue out at him again. " Here I was with three extra tickets to the party, and I was thinking; that since these nice florists had taken the time to put up the flowers, that they might want to come to the party tomorrow and enjoy their hard work." she flashed out three tickets. " Do you want it?"

The three members of Weiß looked at each other.

" We'll take it." Aya said finally.

" Here you go!" Ouka chirped and gave them to him.

" Arigato nasai," Aya said as he pocketed them.

" No problem," she smiled at him.

" Ouka-chan, dad's probably waiting for us." Mamoru said. Ouka nodded and left with her brother.

" What cute kids," Yoji smiled, " Ah, to be young again." He turned to Aya " Don't you think so too?" No response. " Aya?" Aya was staring after Mamoru with a weird look on his face. Yoji waved his hand in front of his face.

" Hello, anyone in there?"

" Huh, what?" Aya snapped back to reality.

" I think someone's in love." Yoji teased, an evil grin on his face, " Is just me or is tall and silent falling for the little blond blue eyed one?"

" Yoji!" Ken scolded him, "Don't joke about that!"

" Get back to work Yoji." Aya gave Yoji a glare and the blond man knew not to push it further... for now.

**********************

Back at the flower shop, while they were closing, Manx came to check on how the boys were doing.

" Hey there Manx," Yoji said as the redhead walked in.

" Hello Yoji," she smiled evenly at him. " So," she said, turning so that she could look at all three, then getting to the point. " How's the mission going?"

" Better then we could hope for." Ken answered pulling out the tickets. "One of the party's member's daughter gave us tickets to get in."

Manx's eyes widened, "Really?"

" Yeah, Really." Ken said happily " This makes the mission about ten times easier, now that we know where all the places that people rarely go are, and that we can get in with no trouble at all."

Manx nodded, " Yes it does. Persia and I'll be there as well." The boys stared at her. " What?"

" Why will you be there?" Yoji asked suspiciously.

" I was invited of course." She answered. Her cell rung. " Hold on a moment." She took the phone out of her pocket and answered it. " Hello. Yes.All right, I'll be right there." she hung up. " Gotta go boys I'll see you at the party." and she left.

" Does anyone else think that she might be hiding something?" Yoji asked.

" Dunno." Ken shrugged.

****************************

Mamoru was typing on his laptop when there was a knock on his door. "Come in," he said and his father walked in.

" Mamoru," his father said as he walked behind his son and placed his hands on his shoulder. " I just wanted to congratulate you on winning that programming contest." he said and patted him on the back. " Oh," he noticed the flowers that Ouka gave him, " Did someone give you flowers?"

" Yeah, Ouka got them for me, as a way to say congratulations." Mamoru said turning to his father and giving him a hug. " Are you ok? You seem a little stressed out. Is something bothering you?"

Takatori paused, thinking on what he should tell him. " It's just pre- election jitters, you know, the primaries are this week and I'm a little nervous."

Mamoru raised an eyebrow, but seemed to buy it. " Anything I can do to help clam you down?"

" No, just be yourself and I'll be happy."

Outside in the hall a certain red head was waiting for Mr. Takatori to come out.

"Ok, good night otousan." Mamoru said from inside the room.

"Good night Mamoru." Takatori told his son as he left the room, and then ran into Schuldig. "Wha...what are you doing here? Didn't I tell you to stay away from Mamoru?"

"Yes you did, but I have a problem following orders," Schuldig shrugged, "Don't ask me why."

Takatori stared at the man for his insolence, "What do you want?"

"Me? Oh nothing, I just like taking walks." and he walked off. Leaving a very confused Takatori.

" I need a drink."

*************************

At the party the Weiß boys, expect for Yoji, felt oddly out of place. Yoji was in his in his element, and was now flirting with a rather pretty woman.

"Do you see any of the targets Aya?" Ken asked in a low whisper.

"No, but keep your eyes open they might show up when you least expect it." Aya answered in the same low whisper.

On the other side of the room Schuldig and Crawford were keeping an eye on things. Schuldig's eyes flicked this way and that using his ability to read minds and give some of the more shy ones some "helpful" advice.

"Schuldig, that's a gross misuse of your powers." Crawford said as a somewhat drunk man pinched a nearby woman's behind and got slapped across the face. "We're supposed to be keeping a look out for the assassins."

"You never let me have any fun," Schuldig said in a mock whine as his eyes fell upon Aya. "Hmm...Crawford I think we found one of them."

" Really? Who is it?"

Schuldig pointed to Aya. " That redhead."

"Are you sure he's the one after Takatori's son?"

" That's one of his targets." Schuldig answered, " Do you want to know who the others are?"

Crawford thought for a moment. " No, Hirofumi is our only concern. Tell Nagi to watch Hirofumi closely."

" Alright."

Back to Ken and Aya, Ken was obviously bored out of his mind. He was fidgeting with his suit's collar and checking his watch. " Man," he sighed, " I wish something would happen. I feel so out of place here."

"Quite complaining, it could be worse." Aya said, not really paying attention to Ken. He was on guard in case one off the targets showed up.

" Hey, Aya?"

" What is it now Ken?"

" What are we supposed to do if the targets show up? I mean we can't get them here in the open."

" Manx said to trail them and wait until they went to the restroom or something."

" Ah," after a moment he spotted one of the targets leaving for the balcony with a young woman. " There's Kondo, I'll get him, then head home," and he slipped away.

Aya kept a look out for the other three targets when he saw someone he really shouldn't have laid eyes on: Takatori Reiji. His fist clutched themselves into fists, and he gritted his teeth. Damn it, He thought, Why does he have to be here, in a place I can't touch him. Then someone appeared in his line of vision that made his anger melt away. Mamoru. What's happening to me?

Mamoru spotted Aya and his face broke into a wide grin, he walked over to him. " Hey," he greeted him happily " I'm glad you came, I hardly know anyone here, and Ouka went off somewhere with some her friends. Where's the other two?"

" Yoji's around and Ken wasn't feeling good so he went home."

" I'm sorry, but I didn't catch your names earlier," Mamoru said a little embarrassed.

" Oh, That's ok. Ken was the brunette, Yoji's the blonde with the sunglasses, and I'm Aya."

" Nice to meet you Aya," Mamoru said giving him a warm smile.

" And you're Mamoru right?"

" Yup."

Yoji chose that the moment to walk up to the pair, " I'm done, I'm going home catch ya later," he paused, " Oh, Hiro's with his daddy so no chance on getting close tonight." He left, taking the girl he was with earlier with him.

" What's he mean by that?" Mamoru asked curiously.

" I don't know," Aya lied. He spotted the third target; reluctantly he said good-bye to Mamoru and went to carry out his duty as a Weiß, but was stopped when Ken walked up with Ouka then. " I thought you went home."

Ken rubbed the back of his head, " Yeah, well I'm feeling better know and Ouka-san convinced me to stay awhile longer."

" I see," Aya said evenly, " Did you.?" Ken shook his head.

" Hey where'd Yoji go?" Ouka asked.

" He went home." Aya answered

" Why'd he do that?"

" He acquired a companion that he wanted to take home." Aya said disapprovingly.

" That sounds like him." Ken said as Ouka blushed.

" I'll go get us some drinks," she said and left.

***********************

Schuldig still was watching the whole thing, trying to find ways to make the situation more amusing. Maybe they should meet Schwarz, these Weiß guys. He glanced around the room looking for Hirofumi, Nakazawa, and Kondo. Once he found each, he suggested for them to meet and discuss ways to make the human hunt more interesting, making sure Aya and Ken could find them in the stairwell. Smiling he turned his focus to Takatori. 'Herr Takatori,' he said telepathically. On the far side of the room Takatori stiffened. 'Try to remain clam, this is Schuldig, listen, your angelic son's in danger, but he doesn't know it, some one has their eye on him, and no it's not someone you know.' he smirked as Takatori looked even more uncomfortable and turned his gaze to Aya and Ken 'No it's not the florists he's talking to. Go talk to your daughter; tell her that their uncle wants to see his nephew and niece.' Takatori gave the slightest of nods and excused himself from the group he was talking to.

" What did you do?" Crawford asked, looking skeptical.

" You'll see." Schuldig said with a very satisfied smile.

Takatori found his daughter at the drink table getting drinks and talking to some girls her age. He walked up behind her a quietly as he could and tapped her when she was in deep conversation with a redhead girl. Ouka jumped nearly spilling the drinks she was holding.

" Papa!" she squawked, " What was that for?"

" Sorry, I couldn't help myself." Takatori smiled at his daughter, " But your uncle's here and he wants to see you and your brother. I need to talk to someone really quick, could you get him for me?"

" All right." she said and went to fulfill the task she was given.

' Very good Herr Takatori,' Schuldig said to him, 'Your son's safety is in good hands. And don't think that, that's very rude.'

Takatori scowled and walked back to his brother and the others.

*****************************

Back to Weiß, Mamoru was talking animatedly to Aya and Ken, when Ouka walked up to them, cleared her throat to get her brother's attention, and dragged him over to their father. Mamoru gave Aya one last heart-filled smile, before he let his twin fully drag him away, and Aya couldn't help but smile back.

Ken chuckled as they left, " Ah, siblings got to love them."

Aya nodded his agreement, then, out of the corner of his eye he spotted the targets. " There they are." he said in a whisper.

Ken nodded, " Right let's follow them." And they set off, keeping some distance behind their targets, not noticing another person following them.

Schuldig watched the whole thing, " Well isn't that sweat?" he asked aloud.

" What is?" Crawford asked.

" The guy who wants to kill Hirofumi is falling for his little brother." Schuldig answered him. " And, to top it off, he has a hatred for Takatori so deep it spread to the rest of the family." he smirked, " He doesn't know that his new love is one, kinda like Romeo and Juliet, don't you think?"

Crawford didn't answer.

Several minuets later Hirofumi, Kondo, and Nakazawa had gathered on a landing in a stairwell.

" So," started Hirofumi, " Why did you want to see me?"

" I had some ideas on what we can do to make our hunts more interesting," said Kondo, " I think we need more young females, and when we get them.maybe we could....heh heh....take their clothes."

" That would be good," said Nakazawa, " maybe have an all girl hunt and have more then just a hunt..."

Hirofumi didn't look like he liked the suggestions, but didn't look like he would stop the discussion. He continued to listen to the conversation when a shadow appeared over him.

" The only hunting you're going to do," came Aya's voice, " is being the game for the demons in hell!" Aya pulled out his Katana and sliced Nakazawa across the chest. Nakazawa was dead before he hit the ground.

Kondo backed against the wall as Ken stepped toward him, " Please let me live!" he begged pathetically.

" I bet's that's what your 'prey' say when you're about to murder them isn't it?" Ken asked, then leapt at him and slashed at him with his bugnuks.

Aya turned his attention towards Hirofumi, " It ends now Takatori."

"I don't think so." came a voice spoken in a monotone. Aya and Ken turned around and saw a boy dressed in a grey Jr. high uniform.

"Who are you?" Aya asked.

"Prodigy, of Schwarz," the boy said, "So you are Weiß, you don't look too skilled."

"Ignore him and go after the target!" Ken called to Aya. Both turned back to Hirofumi.

Nagi gave a slight smile, " Nice try." His eyes glowed red and both Weiß boys flew up in the air and straight into the wall furthest from Hirofumi, and slumped to the ground. " Go," he said to Hirofumi, who nodded and ran up the stairs. "I'll see you." Nagi said calmly as he stepped over the bodies.

" Damn it," Ken seethed as he got up, " What's with that kid?"

" I don't know."

" Let's get out of here."

" Right."
