Pairings: Schuldig/Youji, Schuldig/Aya, Aya/Youji
// … // = Telepathy
Chapter eleven
Crawford blinked as the images of the vision shocked him. Hands fisting tightly at his side he growled. "Prodigy, watch them!" He gestured to Farfarello and Aya as he turned and stalked out of the office.
Nagi nodded silently and glanced over at the redhead having noted Farfarello's current disinterest in the situation.
Aya was confused by Schuldig's cry. Schuldig..? Schu..? Answer me, what's wrong? He was also confused by the lack of response, though to any observers, the typically emotionless Abyssinian didn't seem any different. Tapping his earpiece he growled. "What's going on?" He listened for a moment to the Weiß chibi's answer before narrowing his eyes even more. "Well find out!" He snapped, turning his glare towards Nagi and blinking, just remembering the young Japanese boy was still there.
Nagi found this amusing to watch the small plays of emotion over the redhead's face. "Go to him." He said softly.
Aya lifted a crimson eyebrow slightly and blinked. "Excuse me?
"Something has happened to Schuldig, I'm not sure what." Nagi said softly, looking away, watching Farfarello. "I know about you two.. just go to him. He was sent to stop Kudou."
Aya frowned, wondering how the kid had that knowledge but he nodded once before turning and leaving the office slowly then running down the hall as fast as he could towards the file room and Youji's direction. Hold on, Schu.. I hope you can hear me, I'm coming for you.

"I did it.. I got him." Ken whispered in shock, grinning down at Youji who was still holding Schuldig in his arms on the floor. "I actually took him by surprise, did you see it? I got him."
"Urusee, Ken! Bakayarou!" Youji growled, shaking the telepath lightly. Come on, Schu.. don't leave us, don't give up yet.
Ken blinked. "Wha..? Youji, what's wrong? It's just one less Schwarz to worry about, Kami knows that has to be a good thing."
"Don't leave me, Schu.." Youji whimpered softly, burying his face in the fiery orange hair and holding the telepath tighter, fighting back the tears that were threatening to fall.
Ken blinked again. "Youji..?"
"Let him go." A cold voice came from the door.
Ken turned around to see the Schwarz leader there. He raised his claws and growled lightly. "Come closer and you're next."
Crawford ignored the young man, his eyes fixed on Youji and Schuldig, smirking coldly as Youji lifted his head. "You cannot save him, besides.. he isn't worth it."
"Some team leader you are!" Youji snapped, not willing to let go of the telepath's body.
Crawford shrugged lightly. "He never followed my orders anyway." Pulling his gun from its holster he aimed it at Ken's head, eyes still fixed on Youji. "Let him go, or this one dies."
Ken's eyes widen, he had forgotten that the Oracle carried a gun, only remembering that he fought with his fists against Aya. I got lucky sneaking up on Mastermind, but this one'll know my moves before I even make them.
Youji opened his mouth to say something when he noticed a flash of crimson and silver behind Crawford. Closing his mouth and eyes he lowered his head again and growled, pulling Schuldig closer to his chest. "I will not loose someone I love, not again."
This made the other two Weiß members freeze and Crawford laugh coldly. Aya frowned lightly, changing his grip on his katana. Love? He loves you, Schu.. I wonder, does he feel the same for me?
// He does.. // Came a weak voice in the redhead's mind. // He never said so.. for fear of loosing us.. but, loves us both, Ran. //
Schu! Hang on, koi.. we'll get you out of here. Aya narrowed his eyes coldly and lifted his blade, striking down at the Schwarz leader's neck.
Crawford caught the vision just in time and spun around, grinning as he caught Abyssinian's wrist before he was decapitated. "Nasakenai." He hissed, giving Aya a little shove and stepping past him into the hall. "Have him if you want." He growled as he kept walking away, slipping his gun back into its holster. "That useless whore is beyond saving now."
"Someone tell me what's going on?" A soft voice came over the link and Aya growled, walking over to the eldest member of the team, helping the blonde to his feet.
"Wish I knew, Omi." Ken muttered lightly, watching as Youji picking up the German in his arms. "Someone want to clue us in?"
"Forget it." Aya growled, gathering up the disks of information Youji had collected.
"But.."
"I said forget it!" He snapped, turning his death glare on the younger man before following after Youji.
"I don't know, Omi." Ken sighed talking to the young blonde as he followed the two eldest members of Weiß at a distance to cover their backs. "Youji mentioned something about loosing the one he loves. Is it possible he loves, Schuldig? Demo, if I didn't know better I'd say they were both in love with that baka German."
"Masaka.. don't be silly, Ken-kun." Omi giggled lightly.
Ken laughed softly. "Yeah, that would be weird. Besides, we know Aya hates everything, except his imouto." Ken grinned at the youthful laugh that reached his ears alone.. but still, their actions were strange.. he mused as they left the building, heading for Youji and Aya's cars.

"Where's Schuldig?" Nagi asked as he and Farfarello followed Crawford out of the building.
Farfarello tilted his head at their leader's silence. "The pretty demon is dead." He spoke softly before hissing. "That'll make God happy."
Nagi blinked, Farfarello thinks Schuldig is pretty? Wait.. dead? "Crawford-san?"
Brad shook his head and unlocked his car for the other two before climbing in himself. "Weiß will pay." He stated, yet Nagi noted there wasn't as much malice in his tone as usual.
Perhaps he really is glad that Schu is gone.. Nagi closed his eyes and nodded looking out the side window as Farfarello spoke again.
"Hurting Weiß for killing the pretty demon.. God will cry." He giggled lightly, enjoying the idea.
