Notes: I'm really excited about this now. I hope you enjoy this chapter as much as I do.

Aya watched as Chizaru typed on the computer. It was midnight, the rest of Schreient was at their apartment, Ken and Shun were asleep and he was pretty sure Yoji was too.
"Any leads yet?" Juri asked from her seat on the stairs.
"You don't have to be here you know," Aya said.
"I know. I'm here as moral support."
Chizuru gave a sigh of relief and shut down the computer. "We're in luck. Masafumi is using his lab in the forests around Mt. Fuji."
Juri got off the steps and walked over to the other two, "Do you think he changed the security around the place, or did he keep it up, thinking you wouldn't think about going after him?"
"He may be a genius when it comes to genetics, but it when comes to security he doesn't know much. He might have had someone come in and redo things."
Aya was silent for a moment. "I'm going to contact Manx," he said and walked to the stairs and out of the room. He went to the phone and dialed the number Manx gave him in case they needed anything.
"Hello?" Manx's voice came over the speaker.
"Manx, it's Abyssinian, I have some information, but I want to talk in person."
"Understood. Meet you by the water front in twenty."
Aya hung up, grabbed the keys to his Porsche and left the back way. By the time he got to the water front Manx, Birman, and Boutan were waiting.
"Hello Fujimiya-san how are you?" Boutan asked as he lit up a cigarette.
Aya nodded at him.
"What was it you wanted to talk about?" Manx asked.
"Chizaru has the location of Masafumi's lab," he handed her a piece of paper. "But she doesn't know whether or not the security is different from the one she set up when she worked for him."
"So you want us to do a fly over and take pictures right?" Boutan asked.
Aya nodded.
"We can do that," Manx said, "But I don't see why you wanted to meet me here to talk about it."
"Unless there was something else you wanted to talk about," Birman said. "What is it Abyssinian?"
"Schwarz, Ken told you we encountered them during the mission to take out the child prostitution ring. They have a new member, Oracle called him Healer. Do you have any information on him or the rest of Schwarz for that matter?"
"Aya," Manx said, "You already know we don't, we told you that when we gave the mission to get rid of them."
Aya gave her a piercing look, "I don't buy that."
"Of course you don't." Boutan let out a stream of smoke, "That's because we do, Manx doesn't but Birman and I do."
"We were hoping you wouldn't bring them up," Birman continued for him, "At least not until Masafumi was taken care of.
"They belong to a cult called Eszet. They're like Weiß and Schreient in a way. They do the Elders' bidding, though sources say they do a lot of independent work on the side."
Boutan flicked his cigarette away, "Takatori was a member of Eszet, that's why he had Schwarz. We don't know much else about Eszet other than that. As for Schwarz this is the first we heard of a new member in their group."
"Aya," Manx began, "What's going on? What made you bring this up now?"
Aya turned to leave, "Just a feeling."

"Omi,"
Omi turned and looked at Schuldig, "What?"
"Are you OK?"
Omi nodded, "I'm fine."
"Gut." Schuldig smiled and proceeded to tickle the other assassin.
"Hey, stop it! We're in the control room!"
Nagi, who was also in the control room working, threw them a dirty look. Sighed when he realized that they weren't paying attention and looked around the room, "Hey where's Farfarello?" he asked.
Crawford looked up from his book, "You know, I haven't seen him all day."
Schuldig took a break from torturing Omi, "Is he harassing the girls again?"
"I don't think so," Crawford said getting up and opening the door, "No their still asleep on the couch." He closed the door and returned to his spot.
Nagi let out another sigh, "Well, let's hope he's not picking on God again."
"How do you pick on God?" Omi asked.
"Who knows?" Schuldig answered.
The door opened again and Farfarello bounded into the room happily. "I'm back," he said cheerfully.
"Where were you?" Omi asked.
Farfarello didn't answer but gave him a somewhat crazed smile.
"On second thought I don't want to know."
Crawford closed his book and addressed the group. "Tonight Weiß and Schreient are going to attack Schatten, and so are we."
"Why?" Omi asked.
"Schatten has the Fujimiya girl, we need her in order to for the Elders so the can perform they're ceremony to raise the devil, or whatever they want to summon."
"I still don't get why we're doing this, you hate the elders," Schuldig said, "Why the sudden interest in getting what they want done in a time- proficient manner?"
"Remember, this is all so we can set up the future I've seen."
The rest of Schwarz looked at him, Farfarello with excitement, Schuldig with a smirk, Omi looking detached, and Nagi looking indifferent.
"Alright then," Omi said getting up, "If you would excuse me, I'm going to sharpen my kunai and shuriken."
"I do too," Farf smiled and they walked out of the room.
Omi walked down the hallway to his and Schuldig's room. He pulled out his kunai and sharpening stone and began to sharpen.
After he had them all sharpened he held up the last one gazed at his reflection in it. The image of the redhead from Weiß flashed through his mind again along with a pain that coursed through his heart. What's with me? he thought, Why am I feeling like this I only met him once, and I have Schu.
Looking up he saw Schuldig standing in the doorway, "Schu."
"Schmetterling."
"I'm sorry."
"Don't worry 'bout it. I understand," he said it in such a way that it seemed causal, "Better than you actually."
"What do you mean?"
Schuldig sighed and sat down on the floor, "There's a lot you haven't been told."

It was past midnight outside a couple sat atop a hill over looking a mansion. They sat holding each other, the smaller of the two held tightly to his lover as tears fell down his cheeks. The other had him in a protective grasp.
"Why'd you tell me this? You could be killed."
"Because I love you, and you deserve to now the truth."
**************
Well that's the end of chapter fourteen sorry about the long, long wait. I was working on school things and actual writings that I hope to publish one day. So yeah thanks, and sorry I meant to have this chapter be longer and more action packed, but it seemed like a good place to end that chapter. Anyways the next chapter will be action packed.
Notes: I'm really excited about this now. I hope you enjoy this chapter as much as I do.
