Aya awoke later to the sound of people talking. Damn, his head hurts. He reached to his forehead when he felt a rather cold towel across his forehead under his bangs.
"Aya-kun! You're awake!" He opened his eyes to see Omi looming over him with his usual happy smile. He got himself up to sitting position. This place wasn't familiar at all. He looked around to find Yoji and Ken talking to the two people they met before.
"What's going on here?"
"Well, you fainted. You scared us there, Aya-kun. Guess what? Apparently, those two people you met are those we're looking for! Aya-kun! You've really got luck in your hands! Now we're in Honky Tonk." Aya blinked back at Omi. That's a lot of answers for one question…
"I see you've awakened redhead." Aya looked up from Omi to see the dark-hair guy looking down at him. Aya glared at him and dumped the towel onto the seat.
"Aya-kun! Don't throw a fit, Ban-san was the one who saved you", Omi said coolly. Aya gave a tiny smile to Omi and got up. At that moment his upper arms started aching. He clutched onto his right one which hurt more.
"Don't move around so much hothead, unless you wanna get that arm of yours broken", Ban warned. Aya scowled back at him.
Why did I faint anyway? Aya thought to himself. Omi replied as if he could read his mind. "Aya-kun, if you were sick, you could've told Manx so! Walking around under the sun with a fever is going to kill you!"
I have a fever? When did that happen…? "I'm okay, Omi. No need to worry about me."
"Now let me get this straight, you four are assassins and you're here in Tokyo to look for us?" Ban asked. Three of the four nodded. "Because there is a job where we Dakannya have to retrieve something lost and you have to kill the person who took it? This is ridiculous."
"It isn't ridiculous as the pay is high Ban", a seductive female voice came. At the door, a blonde wearing a really tight exposing dress came walking in. Yoji was the first to greet her, but even before he could get off his seat, Ken hand a full grip on the playboy's ear.
"Hevn-san! You're here!" Ginji said happily.
"Ara, ara, Ban-chan not happy to se me?" Hevn said slyly.
"What's the pay first?"
"You get a deposit of thirty-thousand each, and when the job is done, the pay is five-million each in advance." Ban's eyes popped big dollar signs. He rushed in front of Hevn and shouted a loud 'I accept!'
"Okay, decided. Kazuki, Shido and Akabane will be following. You guys will meet up with Jubei, Uryuu and Makubex when decided. Call you later. Ja-ne!" Hevn gave a good-bye kiss and left.
"Wait, thread spool, monkey player and that freak is coming along?!? Hevn! We could do it ourselves! Why with them?!?" Ban shouted and ran out of Honky Tonk.
"Oi, Ginji, give me that lady's number and I'll treat you lunch!" Yoji said. Ginji sweat dropped.
"Well, Hevn-san either calls us through a private line or comes here to give us the mission…"
"Noo…." Yoji wailed.
"Idiots", Aya mumbled, massaging his aching arm. Ban's grip was really hard, Aya thought.
"Damn! I lost her! That woman is so going to pay one day!" Ban growled while storming into the shop.
"If you're going to break the floor, do it on the outside pavement!" Paul fumed.
The people in Honky Tonk turned their attention to the door when they heard a ring.
"Kazu-chan! What're you doing here?" Ginji said and hopped onto Kazuki's head.
"Ginji-san, it's nice to see you again", Kazuki greeted.
"Now who's that hot chick?" Yoji sneered.
Ban overheard and broke Yoji's um… heart? "It's a guy."
"What the heck?!? That's supposed to be a guy?" Yoji screamed, pointing to Kazuki. At the entrance, the Fuchoin heir frowned.
"Midou, I'd appreciate if you don't barge into other people's business."
Ban returned him with a tongue sticking out.
"Imbecile" Aya said. All of a sudden someone lifted his up.
"You've got anything to say to my face redhead?"
"Put me down you asshole", Aya growled. "And stop calling me that."
"I call people what I want, and you are starting piss me off."
"Ban-san! Let him go! Aya-kun, stop creating a fuss with Ban-san please!" Omi said, trying to pry open the hand holding onto Aya's shirt. Yoji and Ken went up as well to stop the commotion.
"Ban-chan! Yamete teba! Let go of Aya-san!" After everyone tried pulling off Ban, he finally let go.
"Ch, I'd rather not waste my time on insensible things."
Behind, Aya gave a really dangerous scowl.
