The Dog And the Cat

Chapter 7: The dog has some clues
*Hello?* Jack hears the man over the cell phone
"Asato-san? It's Jack" he quickly tells him
*What do you want?* for some reason, Jack thinks he got on Tsuzuki's nerves
"Asato-san, you have to help him. I warned him. I really did. He just wouldn't listen!" Jack is really nervous
*What are you talking about?* Tsuzuki asks confused
"Asato-san! He has Hisoka! All because he hanged around you!" Jack slams a fist on the wall
*What are you talking about?! Who has Hisoka?! What do you mean 'around me'?!* Jack covered his ear from that scream
"He wants his 'doll' back. And he's going to get him if you don't help Hisoka!"
*Who?!*
"Kazu-" and the whole world turns black for him
… … …
"You just couldn't keep your mouth shut, could you?" I slowly open my eyes, quickly noticing I'm hanging from the ceiling. I look up to see a man dressed in white as if he were an angel. I scowl. Muraki.
"Shut up, you asshole. Where's Hisoka?! Agh!" I yell in pain, noticing the huge wound on my chest. Damn this bastard.
"Now, now. Keep your energy. Oriya will bring him soon." Muraki says and I gasp, "My doll will be in my hands once more" he smirks
"What about the treasures?" I ask slowly
"Don't worry. They're alive, for now" Muraki's smirk turned into a big grin
"What?! Agh!" I yell in pain. My chest hurts really badly.
"You shouldn't move too much. You'll get hurt more." If Muraki doesn't stop grinning I'll kill him once I get the chance.
"Muraki-sama! Oriya-dono is here with the boy!" I hear a man enter the room
"Bring them in" I hear Muraki say and I look up to see Hisoka and Oriya enter the room.
"Jack!" Hisoka yells, guilt all over his face
"Hey there pet" I say to him as if it were an everyday greeting.
"You idiot! Why did you do that?!" Oh. He knows I talked to Asato.
"Sorry pet. But I also care about you" I'm not really sorry I blabbed.
"You idiot!!!" he scolds me.
"Now, now my doll. If you cooperate he will be spared." Muraki stands in front of Hisoka. Damn you!!
"How do I know you'll be true to your word?" I see Hisoka ask
"Hisoka, don't!! He's not honest! You shouldn't believe him!"
"I'm more honest to my word than you my doll. So do not worry. Of course, if Jack is spared, then your treasures won't live and neither will that shinigami. What was his name again? Oh, yes. Asato Tsuzuki" I see Hisoka's shocked face and I looked down.
"Leave him out of this!!" I hear Hisoka. You idiot. You're falling into Muraki's trap.
"So you do care about him." I see Muraki bend down to Hisoka's face.
"Wait Muraki!!" I turn my gaze to him, "I don't care what happens to me or the shinigami. But leave Hisoka and his treasures alone!!!" I yell pleadingly
"Jack no!" Hisoka pleads
"Don't worry pet" I let my emotions flow to Hisoka. Don't worry about us. Just make sure them two are safely in your hands again.
Hisoka starts to cry. "I'm sorry Jack" he murmurs. No need to apologize pet. I'm sure you'll see that jerk again. I'm sure Asato will come and save you. I know he cares about you.
I hear them all leave.
I'm sure Asato will save you 'cause he is-, "Aaaaaaaaaggggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!"

"Where should I begin?" Malek wonders
"How about why Kurosaki-san came to you?" Tatsumi suggested
"Oh, yes. He needed to learn this magic so he could trick someone" Malek started
"Kazutaka-san?" Watari asked
"Yes. It was because he took something for him"
"Oh, yeah." Tsuzuki caught the attention of the others
"What's wrong Tsuzuki-san?" Tatsumi asked
"I remember that once, Hisoka came to my house. This was before I got sick. He said to me that he was looking for something and he wasn't going to stop until he got them back" Tsuzuki said to them
"And why didn't you tell us?" Tatsumi asked, a small nerve on his head
"I didn't think it was real" Tsuzuki chuckled
"Oh. So my illusions work on shinigami" Malek asked happily
'I think it's because he's dumb' Watari and Tatsumi thought
"Anyway, Malek-san. Do you happen to know if Hisoka can make an illusion of a cat?" Tatsumi asked
"He doesn't make an illusion of a cat he is the cat." Malek said and the three males were speechless
"You mean he's been staying inside Tsuzuki-san's house all this time?!" Tatsumi asked shocked as Watari poked a stoned Tsuzuki
"Yes. It is for that reason that Kazutaka-san is angry at Hisoka-san" Malek said sadly
"Then what are we to do?" Tatsumi asked as Watari was beginning to think poking Tsuzuki was real fun
"I'm sure you've met Jack-san already" Malek asked and received a nod from Tatsumi, "He is more aware of Kazutaka-san's locations. You should first try to find him first."
"Very well. Do you have any clues?" Tatsumi asked
"I'm afraid not but, Maila come in" he said and the girl from before entered the room, "Maila is sure to find Jack. Would you go with them child?" he asked and Maila nodded
"Thank Malek-san" Tatsumi stood up and bowed, "Let's go Watari, Tsuzuki-" Tatsumi looked at Watari who was playing with the still stoned Tsuzuki, "What are you doing?!"
Tatsumi left the room, followed by Maila and Watari and Tsuzuki, who rubbed their heads.
… …
"Are you sure it's this way?" Tsuzuki asked
"I may not be able to find Hisoka-kun but when it comes to Jack, he's the easiest of the bunch" Maila said
"Why?" Watari asked curiously
"/////" Maila looked down embarrassed at the thought of why.
After they had left the building they started following Maila in the search for Jack, since Maila said Hisoka was shielding himself to much for her to find him.
"He's here" Maila said as she stopped in front of the pub where they had been looking for Hisoka the last past days.
"Are you absolutely certain Maila-san?" Tatsumi asked
"My empathy is never wrong, Tatsumi-san" Maila smiled at the secretary
"Then let's go in" Tatsumi opened the wooden door to the pub and led everyone inside, "Maila-san, stay besides me" Maila nodded and stood next to Tatsumi at all time. She may be an empath, but she was still blind.
They approached the same bartender as before as they all sat down on the stools of the bar.
"Excuse us." Tatsumi got the attention of the bartender.
"O'. It's y'u gu's aga'n. Wha's wron' no'w?" the bartender asked with a goofy smile
"We were wondering if you've seen a man with black hair and red eyes around here?" Tatsumi asked
"No'w y'u loo'ing fo' Ja'k? E's not he'e" the bartender said
"Tatsumi-san" Maila called Tatsumi as she grabbed hold of his jacket.
Tatsumi turned around to see a lot of demons, ready to attack them.
"Should've known there'd be a fight. There's always a fight." Watari exclaimed as he and Tsuzuki also looked at the gang of demons
"What now Tatsumi?" Tsuzuki asked
"Maila, do you know his exact location?" Tatsumi asked the young girl, who nodded, "Tsuzuki-san, go with Maila-san and look for Jack. Watari and I will hold them off" Tatsumi ordered Tsuzuki who nodded reluctantly
"Come on Maila!!" Tsuzuki yelled as he grabbed hold of Maila's hand and to the left, towards more to the center of the pub.
"Tsuzuki-san that way!!!" Maila pointed the way and the entered a door.
"Shall we begin dancing?" Tatsumi asked as the shadows, which stopped the demons began to move around Tatsumi
"Let's dance!!" Watari cheered and the fight began
… …
"Will they be alright?" Maila asked
"Of course! They don't look it but they're really strong." Tsuzuki assured the girl
They ran and ran, going down some stairs and halls. Seeing no one.
"This is really creepy" Maila said
"Don't worry. I'll protect you." Tsuzuki told her
"*gasp* Thanks…" she said shyly, remembering stuff from her past
"No worries!" Tsuzuki said happily
"Tsuzuki-san turn left!" Maila said and they turned left to face a door.
"In here?" Tsuzuki asked
"Y-yeah…" Maila said nervously
"Okay. Here we go" Tsuzuki opened the door as they saw a sight they won't soon forget.
"J-JAAAAACK!!!!"
