Wahl Fünf

Disclaimer: It's in the other chapters, read it there.

You know I realized I've been ignoring the main reason I wrote this to begin with. I wanted to see Omi/Mamoru interact with Takatori and not yelled at or insulted. But I've only had one scene with the two together. But Takatori has been protective of him from Schwarz. I've been ignoring Crawford, Nagi and Ouka too. Crawford and Nagi I'm not too concerned about right now, but Ouka plays an important part later, so I can't just ignore her. I'll try to bring her back into the flow of the fic. And I'm babbling aren't I. On to the fic then!

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

Takatori was in much better spirits then he was yesterday. One of his political opponents had just died, poisoned apparently. His way to becoming Prime Minister was just about paved with gold for him. If only his son and his hunting club hadn't been killed, it would be even easier. There was a knock at the door.

" Es sind der Engel," (It's the angel.) Schuldig said in German, from behind him.

Takatori gave the German a warning look and turned back to the door, " Come in Mamoru."

Mamoru walked in the door, and closed it, " You wanted to see me Otousan?"

Takatori nodded, " Yes, I've been invited to dinner with the Prime Minister tonight, he told me I could bring my children, I would like you to come with me, Ouka said she would already."

Mamoru smiled at his father. " Of course I'll go," he said, " What time?"

" Around eight."

" Ok, I'll see you later then." he turned to leave.

" Where are you going?" asked Takatori, curiously.

Mamoru blushed a little, " A date." he said then left.

Schuldig smiled as he enjoyed the thoughts that the boy was thinking, "Such an innocent child," he leaned back in his chair.

" What do you mean?" Takatori asked turning his chair so he faced him.

" Well, most boys have dirty thoughts when they go on a date, even if they're not planning to do anything, they like to think of the possibility of their date wanting to," his smile widened, " But not him, oh no. All he's thinking about is making his date smile. Hell, he's practically screaming 'Aya I want to make you smile and know that I'm one of those who makes you happy!' He's so innocent it's disgustingly cute."

Farfarfello frowned, " Disgusting cute does not hurt God," he said taking out one of his knifes and running his fingers over the blade, "No it doesn't."

Crawford gave the Irishman a look that would have scared anyone else out of their wits. " Farfarello..." he warned.

Takatori ignored them and kept his gaze on Schuldig, " Do I need to order not to go looking in my son's mind, or will you refrain from using you're powers on him, and the rest of my children for that matter, on your own free will," he asked trying to stay calm.

Schuldig gave Takatori a lazy smile, " I can't help it if the boy broadcasts his thoughts to me like a radio station."

Takatori shook his head and turned back to what he was working on before he heard about his opponent's death.

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

Aya waited in the shade of a large tree. Mamoru was running down the path now, fifteen minutes late. He panted as he came to a stop in front of the red head.

" Sorry I'm late Aya-kun," he said while he tried to catch his breath, " But father had something important to tell me."

" It's ok," Aya said helping the boy up.

" No, it's not ok...." He would have carried on but Aya gave him a look that he used whenever he wanted Yoji to do something, and the blonde boy shut up. " So, where should we go?" he chirped, " We could always go to that new ice cream parlor, or the movies, what do you want to do?"

Aya shook his head, " I'm not really good at these things," He said keeping an impassive face.

" Well, lets go to the movies and get some ice cream later. What movie should we see?" he asked as they walked towards the movie theater.

Aya didn't answer, just glad to be in the company of this sweet angel. HIS angel now that he thought about it. It was also the first date he had since his parents' deaths two years ago. He felt a little guilty about feeling happy while his parents were dead and his sister in a coma, But then he realized that they wouldn't want him to wallow in misery for the rest of his life, they would want him to be happy. He let himself smile a little as he took Mamoru's hand into his own. " Any movie you want." he said, still smiling softly.

Mamoru beamed up at the taller man, giving off what seemed to Aya his trademark sunshine smile. " I want to see Jurassic Park then"

They let go of each other's hands, Mamoru beaming up at Aya, Aya letting his mask slip a little and walked on to the street. Today thought Aya is going to be a good day.

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

Juri groaned as another high school girl asked where Aya was. " He's out visiting his aunt and uncle," she said for what felt like the hundredth time. " He won't be back till tomorrow."

The girl and her friend looked upset for a moment and then spotted Ken and went to badger him.

" How cute," thought Hell as she and the rest of Schreient stood across from the Kitty in the House.

" Those cute boys won't know what hit them," said the blond, Schön, as she brushed her long golden locks out of her face. " The brunette is really cute. What do you think Neu?"

The silent blue haired woman didn't answer, you wouldn't be able to tell but she had her gaze locked on the blond man with sunglasses similar to her own. As he flirted with some girls she felt a pang of betrayal and anger and wondered why she felt angry with him.

" You ok Neu-san?" asked the youngest member as she held on to her Rabbi-chan, out the four members of Schreient she was the only one who could tell what the other women where feeling, no matter how much, or how well they hid behind masks. " You've been staring at him since we got here, do you know him?"

Neu didn't answer, but Tot got the answer of ' I don't know, but I think I do.' out of it.

" It's a pity there leader's not here," Hell said " We could get the party started already."

" Hopefully they'll go after the Masafumi tonight while he's at the lab, then we can get them." Schön said excitedly.

Hell nodded " Right back to the lab then."

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

At the movie theaters Mamoru had attached himself to Aya and refused to let go. Aya didn't mind really, parts of the movie were frightening, but nothing more frightening then having a gun pointed at your face by a deranged cross-dresser. And plus Mamoru was over exaggerating his fear of the robotic monster to have an excuse to attach himself to his boyfriend, Aya didn't mind it one bit. It's the part where the kids and the main dude were up in tree while some long necked dinos that Aya couldn't name were eating some of the leaves of the trees and one had just sneezed on the girl.

" That's gross." Mamoru said making a face and burying his face on Aya's shoulder.

Aya patted the boy the back of the head and continued to watch unfazed. The two were in the very back of the movie theater, with no one else in the last two rows. There was a red haired man and a white haired one with an eye-patch, in the third row ahead of them, who both looked up at the two when the movie had started; the red head gave a knowing while the man with the eye-patch looked like he didn't care. The red head looked over his shoulder every now and then since, like he was making sure they didn't do any thing too outrageous.

Mamoru lifted his head so he could turn and watch the movie, just as the red head glanced over his shoulder again. Mamoru's eyes widened as he recognized the man. " Crap," he said under his breath. Aya raised an eyebrow, wondering whether or not he should ask Mamoru what was wrong. But decided not since it wasn't brought up again.

About fifteen minutes later Aya's cell vibrated, excusing himself he left for the men's restroom. " Hello," he asked as he put the phone to his ear.

" Hey Aya, Manx came in with some new order and wants us get to get started right away," Juri's voice came from the speaker. " I'm sorry to break up you're date but Masafumi's working on some new formula apparently that makes human's into monsters more quickly then before. At least that's what the Kritiker agent says," she babbled.

" All right I'll be right there." Hanging up as he walked out of the restroom. Walked back into the theater and up to where and Mamoru were sitting, " I got to go," he said simply,

Mamoru stared at him for a moment, " Is there something wrong?"

Aya paused for a moment, " Yoji got into a accident and is in the hospital," he lied effortlessly,

" Do you want me to come?" Mamoru asked getting up.

Aya shook his head, " No, that's ok. He just needs someone to take him home afterward, and I don't know how long it will take."

Mamoru frowned at that, but didn't say anything.

" I'll make it up to you later," he said and left.

At the end of the movie Mamoru walked out of the theater alone, feeling a little hurt and confused. I wonder what happened to Yoji-san, he thought And why does it feel like that he's hiding something from me?

" Maybe because he is." a nasal voice said from behind him, causing the blonde boy to jump.

" Schuldig," Mamoru smiled weakly at the German. " What do mean by that?"

" Maybe he is hiding something from you." The German said, gazing into the boy's eyes, making Mamoru feel like he was being read like a book. " Kind of, not really."

" What?"

" You were feeling like you were being read like a book, but you're not really being read, it's more of a search engine."

" You can read my thoughts?" Mamoru asked softly. Schuldig nodded. " That's...SO cool!" he exclaimed, " I never met a real psychic before! This is so cool."

" Calm down kid." Schuldig said lazily, " It's nothing to be too worked up about." He turned around to make sure that Farfarello was still with him, normally he was stable enough to be in large crowds like the streets of Tokyo, but every so often he would lose it and have a fit. But fortunately the white haired man was sticking to his side. His golden eye staring unfocused. " I don't think you've met Farf have you?" Schuldig said gesturing towards the man behind him. " He's another body guard for your dad. Farfarello this is Herr Takatori's son Mamoru.

Mamoru shook his head and turned his attention to the albino assassin. " It's nice to meet you," he bowed a little, trying not to stare at the man's scars. Farfarello gave a small nod in return before going back into his own world.

" Well it's time to get home," Schuldig said as he ushered them to his red sports car, " After all you have to get ready to go to dinner tonight." he paused as Mamoru looked up with a questioning and fearful look. Schuldig's smile widen, he didn't have to read the boy's mind to find out what he wanted to ask. " And no, I'm not going to tell your father that you have a boyfriend. That's your place to tell him, I don't do things like tell everybody what someone's deepest secret is."

Farfarello snorted suddenly and said something like " Liar," under his breath.

" Ignore him," the German said sweetly. Mamoru looked skeptical, but decided he might as well trust the German, after all he does work for his father.

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

Back at the Flower shop the members of Weiß were working on a way to get into Kourin without being caught by the guards. " They have a heavy security system, but it's rather basic," Juri said looking at them mission folder. " Just a dozen or two guards and a lot of security cameras. The doors are opened by key card and none of us are hackers so we can't get into the rooms unless there open or we get a master key."

" It shouldn't matter that much," Yoji said while he stretched out lazily, " All we have to do is have a decoy, send him out to get the guards out of the way, set up explosives, wait for Takatori to show up, do him in, blowup the place and get out. Simple."

"Yeah, but what if those girls show up again?" Ken wondered, " We might not stand a chance against them. I mean one of them is strong enough to pass for a female Hercules. Think about what the others can do."

" Our main focus is Takatori, if those girls are there we try to stay out of their sight," said Aya. He turned to Juri, " When can we go?"

" Right now."

" Then let's go."

Half an hour later the four passed through the shadows, "Aya," came Juri's voice over the transmitter. " I found the fuss box, and I'm shutting off the power. This gets rid of those pesky security cameras "

" Good." Aya said, " Get back here and we'll find Takatori."

" On my way."

**************
Once the group was assembled the four of them silently made their way through the hallways. They paused at the end of a corridor when the lights were switched on again.

" The hell..." said a confused Ken when a women's voice rang out.

" Well, well, what have we got here? Three pretty boys and a little girl." she laughed, " Ha! Hardly worth my time." And she stepped into Weiß's line of vision, She was a rather beautiful woman, she had her hair in an odd style and was dressed in an even stranger outfit. The only thing she carried a whip.

" It's one of those chick assassins." Yoji whispered

" Who are you?" asked Ken.

" I am Schön of Schreient," she smiled at them. "If you think that you're going to take out Masafumi you better think again."

" That's right, there's no way we're going to let you touch Papa!" came a high pitched cutesy voice, and a young girl in a pink and frilly outfit. " We're not going to let you icky people touch him!"

" Well said Tot," another woman stepped out in front Weiß, followed by a woman wearing a visor. " I am Hell and this is Neu," she said indicating the woman in the visor. " Now you are going to meet you're end!" she snapped her fingers and a horde of humans turned monsters came into the hall and charged at the white hunters.

" Ran!" Aya called out to his team and the four of them sprinted in the opposite direction. Right into the green house.

" Shit, the only way out is out of the building and we can't afford to give up on the mission," Juri swore under her breath. " Damn it!"

Ken was facing off against a bear-like monster, doing his best to dodge its swipes at him and not hurt it. " Listen we're trying to help you!"

" It's no use Ken!" Yoji called at his friend, " They're no longer human, it's best to put them out of their misery!" he said this as he strangled one with his wire.

Reluctantly Ken struck, creating a giant gash down the creature's chest.

Juri fired her 9mm at a reptilian one, on the other side of the of the green house Aya had just finished off two of them.

" That wasn't too shabby," said Hell. The white assassins turned to see the four women in the doorway. Then the four of them leapt towards different members of Weiß.

"Let's see how good you really are cutie!" Schön said was she lashed out her whip at Ken.

" We're really strong you know!" Tot said attempting to impale Juri on the spike on the end of her umbrella.

Yoji and Neu were locked in hand-to-hand combat. " Women who don't say anything aren't very attractive!" Yoji said to Neu as she gave him a twist kick.

Aya was currently blocking blows from Hell's daggers. Aya and Hell were so into their battle that they didn't notice Ken's scream.

Schön's whip had struck him across the back and it had cut into his flesh. " You bitch!" he screamed at her grabbing her whip that was laying on the ground at that moment and pulled her towards him and managed to cut her face with one of the one of the claws of his bugnuks.

" My face! You'll pay for cutting my beautiful face!" she screamed shrilly at Ken and raised her whip and cracked it again. Ken dodged it and swiped at her with his bugnuks and she dodged him and cracked her whip again.

Neu sent a jump sidekick at Yoji who just dodged it in time. He threw some of his wire at her and destroyed part off her visor. What he saw made him stop dead. " Asuka?" he whispered. Upon hearing the name Neu stopped in her tracks as well.

" Yo...Yoji?" she said her voice hoarse from not using it.

" It....It really is you isn't it?" Yoji asked his mouth a gap.

Tot was giggling as Juri dodged every time the girl tried to impale her. " This is fun!" she squealed happily.

" Yeah, for you maybe." Juri said blocking the umbrella with a handy steel pipe. She dodged to the left and was cut by the spike, a small stream blood formed on her right arm. Holding the pipe high she brought it down, making contact with Tot's left shoulder, making the younger woman cry out.

Unnoticed by the two groups Masafumi was slinking through the greenhouse, he reached the doors that lead to the helicopter landing area. Pulling out a flare and fired it, then he dashed out to the awaiting helicopter. Upon seeing the signal flare Schreient left the battle as quickly as possible, following Masafumi to the helicopter.

" Get back here you bitch!" Ken called after Schön.

" Asuka!" Yoji hollered after hi former partner, " Don't-!" but she had shut him out.

The helicopter began take off. As soon as it was in the air it opened fire on the building.

" Get out of here!" Aya called out to his team members. " Regroup back at the shop!" After watching them disappear form his sight, Aya looked up to the night sky, as the smoke curled it's way upward he glared at the fading helicopter. " I'll get you, you bastard," he hissed into the night before taking off himself.

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

Yay, another chapter done. It was shorter then I hoped it would be, but hey, that's life. I figured it would be better to have the next chapter be dedicated to the battle between Weiß and Schreient. Thanks yet again for every one who've reviewed, it really makes me happy! I always gives me this floutie feeling every time I read them.

Preview:

Yoji: Asuka, I can't believe you're alive!

Ken: We tracked down Masafumi, only to be stopped by that weird red head and some albino lunatic. Are they more of Masafumi's goons?

Juri: Things are getting stranger and stranger by the minute. Not only is the two part freak show fighting us, but also some thing really, really strange is going on. I can't figure out what though.

Manx: Proceed with caution, you never now what might show up next.

Aya: The show down between Weiß and Schreient is coming closer.

Ken: The next chapter concludes the Schreient problem, I hope. Please look forward to it!
