Chapter 9: Lost and found doggy

Tsuzuki!!!!

Tsuzuki felt a sudden shiver go down his spine.

"What's wrong Tsuzuki-san?" Tatsumi asked

"I…I just felt that…something horrible just happened" Tsuzuki tried to warm himself up

"You're right" Maila said and they turn to her, "I just felt Hisoka-kun screaming Tsuzuki-san's name. Something has happened to him"

"Muraki" Jack scowled

"You're right. He's the only capable person to hurt Hisoka-kun this badly. So he's must have done something horrible to him." Maila said worriedly

"We have to find him" Tsuzuki said and they all nodded

"I'll tell you every location I can think of" Jack said as he stood up

"Much appreciated" Watari said as he and Jack headed to the lab, followed by the other three.

… … …

"What about in here?" Tsuzuki asked Maila

"No, not here either" Maila answered him

"Then let's go" Tsuzuki said and the left

After being told almost every location Jack could remember they set off to look for Hisoka.

"First of all, aside from being a doctor, Muraki likes to collect casinos and hotels or brothels. And he has a lot. Trust me. He always likes to own them, even if it's for like a day"

'Can't this guy have a healthier hobby?!' Tsuzuki thought

"Muraki doesn't think normal, remember that. He just likes to have fun. Even if it includes torturing other people"

'Why does he have to involve Hisoka?!'

"Muraki likes to own delicate things as well. Whether it's living or dead or non-living. He especially likes dolls. He has a lot. But where he keeps them, I don't know"

'Does he think Hisoka is a doll?! Even if he does have such pale skin'

"Muraki is the kind of guy that if he likes something, he'll do everything in his power to obtain it. Even if he has to kill or blackmail or stuff"

'But why does Hisoka have to suffer?!'

"Muraki also thinks everything he likes belongs to him and if that thing doesn't want him…well, you know…"

Tsuzuki was bitter angry with himself. Not only was he taking care of the person they were trying to save, without him knowing so, but he also let that boy out of his grasp and now, something had happened to him.

"Tsuzuki-san, please calm down. You're giving me a headache" Maila broke Tsuzuki's thoughts

"Sorry" he apologized

… … …

"…Good night Tsuzuki-san. And please take care of yourself" Maila told him

"Alright, I will" Tsuzuki assured her

After spending the whole day looking, they still hadn't found Hisoka at any of the casinos or the hotels. Right now, Tatsumi and Maila had offered to take Tsuzuki to his house since the amethyst eyed man had wanted to continue searching, even by himself, but of course everyone said 'no'.

"Good night Tsuzuki-san" Tatsumi said and the two left

"Well, that's peachy" Tsuzuki closed the door and headed upstairs to take a bath.

… …

After his bath Tsuzuki laid on his bed thinking about Hisoka during his stay in his house.

"Here Hisoka" Tsuzuki leaves food on the table

"Huh?! Hisoka!!!" Tsuzuki picks up nearly dead Hisoka, who ate Tsuzuki's food

"So you don't like my food, huh? Ok. I'll just buy some cat food ^__^" Tsuzuki smiles at Hisoka as he hands some milk to the cat

"Wha-? How'd I ate so much food?! Have I been sleep walking?!"

"Now that I think about it, everyday I had to buy food to fill the fridge. He must have been cooking and eating while I wasn't home" Tsuzuki thought to himself as he looked at the spot on the window Hisoka would sometimes sleep.

Tsuzuki always left the window opened so Hisoka could get in during the night if he wanted to. It had been normal for them to be that way. Either together or apart. But now, Tsuzuki was worried about the apart part.

"Hisoka…" Tsuzuki stared at the spot till sleep overcame him.

… … …

After spending more than three weeks on the whole 'Searching-for-Hisoka-again-Again?! thingy, Tsuzuki and the others were pretty tired.

"I keep looking at that pile and it ain't getting smaller" Jack stared at the huge pile of names of casino, hotels, etc. that Muraki might own from the floor.

"Then stop looking at it" Watari said. The long nights were driving him crazy he was starting to be a little bit too sarcastic.

"How goes the search?" Tatsumi arrived through the door and was received with glaring daggers good enough to kill, "I'm sorry you feel that way. Here" Tatsumi left a new bundle of information on the floor.

"AAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!! It's getting bigger!!! Run!!!!" Jack hid his face on the floor and so did Watari.

"It isn't going to kill you or anything, you know" Tatsumi said the wrong thing at the wrong time and was made to help clear out all the information while receiving more from Gushoosin.

… …

"Here you go" a waitress delivered some cakes and drinks for Tsuzuki and Maila, who were taking a break in a restaurant.

"Are you tired Tsuzuki-san?" Maila asked

"I'm ok. A bit tired but I can continue" Tsuzuki assured her

Maila nodded and after they ate, they left the place and continued their search.

… …

Maila walked in a part of town that was recognized for the many motels and brothels in that area. It also had a few apartments, one of which Maila resided in.

"…" Maila walked along quietly until she came to a stop.

She was sweating from this feeling she was having. She didn't like it. She didn't like it at all.

Maila slowly looked to her right. A brothel.

This was wrong. This feeling she was having was all wrong. A person's emotions can't be that way.

Maila could feel him, but she couldn't believe it.

"Hisoka-san…" she murmured and ran away from there.

It was Hisoka, but in another sense it wasn't. It felt like him but there was something wrong with him.

Now she needed to find out what.

… …

"My doll, why so glum?" Muraki stood out of a brothel to look at Hisoka

"It's nothing Muraki-sama" Hisoka said

"Ahhhh, are you lonely out here?" Muraki holds Hisoka by the waist and kisses him

"Not at all, Muraki-sama" Hisoka gives a small smile

"Then why don't you at least come inside?" Muraki asks

"Don't I have to attend costumers Muraki-sama?"

"Not tonight Hisoka, not tonight. For I am your costumer" Muraki gives Hisoka a big sadistic smile before they go inside

… … …

TBC…

Sissy: People! So sorry I took too long to update!!! *bows uncontrollably* Last time I was here I didn't finish the chapter and well…

Kody: Stop that. Replies to reviews:

Rhana Sedai-san, thanks for the support and your… How do I say this? I'll try it in spanish. …Información! Information! That's it. I'm so dumb sometimes.

Menchi and Tama-chan, everything is revealed with time. Calm down and join me in some relaxation. *picks up a pale and starts hitting random Muraki plushes in the room*

You who didn't put a name in anonymous, thanks for your 'great' insight. I love it! You're correct about the meaning of things. I actually use 'Word' to help me and if it doesn't help, it doesn't. Yeah, part of this whole fanfictions thingy is that you have to be creative. Oh, and, thanks for putting my age so young, I'm actually 14 to be 15 in November and it isn't my fault I live in Puerto Rico. I actually got into FanFiction last year, and I guess I'm only slowly improving, I hope you'll forgive!!!

Aoi: So, same blah: YnM doesn't belong to us, k?

Amy: Review all your thoughts, but keep the flames to yourself

Ryu: And even if you did send them, we have a house.

Kody: Oh, yeah. We're sorry that this chapter and the last one were so small. Sissy been getting lots of work and she's been busy. You have to go to therapy on Tuesday, right?

Sissy: Don't think so. But I got to go to Cutito's thingy today.

Kody: Oh, yeah. That's right.
