Kia: Hi again! Oh and thanks to Ice Princess for all your reviews! I actually hadn't looked at my reviews until I started this chapter, or else I would've thanked you earlier! I'm glad I found another person that likes my stories! I'd also like to ask everyone that reads this to review and tell me what you like best about my stories! Thanks! I need to know this stuff for my English class. Not sure why, but we're supposed to find out what random people think of our stories. You know, what's good about it and what's bad about it.
Leon: Personally, I hate that you always make me ooc.
Kia: Wasn't asking you.
Leon: Do I look like I care?
Kia: Not really…
Leon: Ok then.
D: shakes his head Come now, you two. No fighting! Kia, continue with your story please.
Kia: Sure thing, D. Here's chapter…um…oh yeah! 9!
Chapter 9
"Where IS he?" D exclaimed, running into the bedroom again.
Leon finally sat up, not able to sleep from D's constant running around. "D…" D rushed into the bathroom. A few moments later, he returned. "D…" D rushed out into the hall. Leon let out a deep sigh, and then D rushed back in. "D!"
D halted to a stop. "What is it, Leon? I don't have time to talk right now!" He stooped down and looked under the bed.
Leon ran a hand through his bed-head hair. "What's going on?"
D slowly stood up, took a moment to stop from falling over and got his balance back. "Femto-kun is GONE."
"So? He's just hiding in one of the rooms, hm?" Leon climbed sleepily out of bed.
"No, he is not. I have checked every room twice!" D said worriedly.
"Well…he's a male cat. Male cats usually run off for a couple days and then come back, hm?" Leon said soothingly, wrapping his arms around D.
D returned the hug happily. "Yes, they do. But Femto-kun hardly ever leaves the shop, and when he does, he returns the next day…I'm very worried."
Leon gave D a quick peck on the cheek. "Don't be, baby." He let his hands slide from D's waist as he headed for the bathroom. "I'm gonna get ready for work, ok?"
"But…Femto-kun…" D whined softly.
Leon paused in the bathroom doorway. "D…You are going to go and sit in the front room and drink your morning cup of tea. Understand?" He said firmly.
"But…"
"No buts, D. Do it." Leon smiled. His tone a little softer now, he said, "And I'll be there soon."
D's shoulders drooped, but he simply nodded. He knew better than to get Leon in a bad mood, especially this early in the morning. He turned to leave the room.
"Hey, D?" D stopped and glanced back at Leon. "Stress never helped pregnancies. So calm down. I love you. Now go get some tea." Leon smiled.
D smiled back and walked out of the room and down the hall slowly, thinking about what his Dear Detective had said and also about how much sugar to put in his tea.
A Little Later
Jar ran into the front room with a toy airplane in his hand, making sound effects to accompany his playing. He ran circles around the sofa and D, of which D ignored, and then plopped down on the floor and pretended a crash. D merely sipped his tea without a glance at Jar, who was now dismantling the plane.
Leon walked in, his hair neatly combed, (At least, as neat as it ever is for Leon…) and dressed in his everyday clothes. He glanced at his watch, and then settled down next to D, who set down his teacup. Leon cuddled with D for a moment, until Jar jumped between them on the sofa.
"Daddy, can I have some tea!" Jar exclaimed happily. Leon frowned and then smiled, mussing Jar's hair.
"Certainly." D answered, and began fixing Jar some tea. He also added a little bit of sugar, although not quite as much as he would his own tea.
He handed Jar the cup with a warning to be careful, and then let his gaze wander over Leon. Leon didn't seem at all worried about anything at the moment as he joked with Jar and laughed.
He's so handsome. No wonder I fell for him…
"D?" Leon asked, interrupting D's thoughts.
"Yes?"
"I have to go soon. Almost work time." Leon smiled. "Promise me you won't get all worked up about your cat. Ok?" He reached out and brushed a hand through D's raven hair. "Promise? I don't want you to end up hurt."
D put his hand over Leon's. "All right. I promise…" D smiled.
"Good boy." Leon teased. He stood up. "I gotta go now."
Jar set down his cup and launched himself at Leon. "Bai bai, Uncle Leon!"
Leon laughed as he caught Jar and hugged him before setting him down. "Bye, Jar." He turned to D. D stood and hugged him. "Bye D."
"Goodbye." D said softly before Leon kissed him.
"Remember…" Leon grabbed his jacket and keys and opened the door. "You promised." He flashed a smile and then left, shutting the door behind him.
D's smile faded. "Yes. I promised…But I am still worried."
PD
"New info on Devin's last whereabouts!" Jill exclaimed as she threw some papers on Leon's desk.
Leon stands and puts on his jacket as he reads over the papers. "Ok. Are you coming this time?" He puts the papers in a folder on the cluttered desk.
"Yes!" Jill answered, rushing back to her get her own jacket.
A little later
Leon slowed to a stop in front of yet another rundown looking place. This tip had also been given to them from the same anyonomus person.
As they tore into the building, the first thing that Leon noticed was how ragged this whole place seemed. The second thing was the small girl asleep on the torn mattress bed and the black cat with piercing black eyes that was glaring at him.
"JULIE?" Jill exclaimed, rushing towards the girl, who stirred in her sleep and blinked tired eyes at Jill.
"Jill?" Julie's face broke into a huge grin. "Jill!"
"Hey, look, a kitten." One of the men said, noticing the cat. Just then, as Jill reached for Julie, the cat jumped, and hissed violently at Jill.
"Hey, stop it! We're not going hurt you or Julie! We're just here to bring her home!" Leon snapped at the cat. He realized that all his friends could see only a cat, but he saw a boy.
A boy with razor-sharp, extremely long fingernails, all black clothing, which consisted of oversized pants with many cuts and silver buckles on them, and a shirt that was button-up, and left opened from mid-chest up, revealing the promise of a muscled body underneath. Also, jet-black hair that could be almost the same color as D's that was cropped close to his head. There were also many scars along his skin, one deep one standing out more than any other. This particular scar started at the base of his hairline, and disappeared beneath his shirt.
"This is Siegl. I met him a few days ago." Julie happily informed her rescuers as a huge smile split her face. "He promised he would protect me until I went home because I was a pretty girl!" She giggled. Siegl flexed his fingers, still in his fighting stance. "Siegl, this is my cousin, Jill! And her friend, Mr. Leon!" Siegl relaxed when he realized his new friend was at ease around these people. He sank next to Julie and sighed.
"Nice to meet ya, Siegl. But now we've really got to bring Julie home." Leon said, talking to Siegl, who gave him an odd look.
"Can you see me?" Siegl asked. Leon just nodded, noticing how his friends were already starting to laugh some because he was talking to a cat.
Jill picked up Julie. "Julie! I was so worried! What happened? Why are you here?"
Julie just smiled and hugged Jill. "My daddy brought me here! He picked me up from Count D's and we came here!" Jill frowned.
"Your daddy?" She questioned. Setting Julie carefully on her feet, she continued her questions. "What did he do? Did he do anything to you?"
"No." Julie shook her head happily. "But he left a few minutes ago to go buy some food for dinner!" There was a few seconds of silence. "From what I know, he knew Count D! They used to be friends from a spa, I think."
Leon's eyes widened. "Julie, what was your daddy's name again?"
"Tony." (Don't forget, Tony, or Antonio is a.k.a. Devin)She grinned. "Why?"
Leon exchanged glances with Jill. He knew she was thinking the same thing he was. "Devin." He whispered.
As they left the building with both Julie and Siegl, Leon glanced around and figured out where this place was. It was pretty close to Chinatown. It suddenly clicked, and Leon raced to his car.
"Leon?" Jill called out.
"Going to find D! I'll see ya at the shop!" Leon shouted back, jumping in and starting the car.
A Few Blocks from the Shop
T-chan pulled D after him hastily, until D snatched his arm away. "Stop it, T-chan!" He leaned against a brick wall, and put a hand over his abdomen, and rested a moment.
"No time for rest, Count! I saw Devin, and I'm getting you away from him!" T-chan reached for D again.
"Hey!" Devin's voice reached them from where they were. T-chan immediately bared his teeth and growled at Devin, who stopped a few feet away. "So…is it true you're pregnant, D?"
D glared at him, but answered. "Yes, Leon and I will both be happy parents soon." He backed away slowly, hiding behind T-chan.
T-chan growled louder, and Devin held up his hands. "Calm down. I just wanted to ask that. I don't believe it, considering he's a guy, but ok. I'll leave now…"
But, oh, no. T-chan wouldn't have that. He was ready for a fight, and a fight he would get! Even if it was only going to be considered revenge for hurting D before. T-chan lunged at Devin, who let out a surprised scream just before he was tackled by T-chan.
D felt his stomach turning as he watched T-chan claw and bite at the man. Blood was sprinkling down on the concrete, and clothes ripped and were reduced to shreds. Finally, D couldn't hold it, and retched. He didn't feel as if he had enough strength or want to tell T-chan to stop.
Suddenly a cop car screeched to a stop and Leon jumped out, running to D and stopping only briefly to see who it was T-chan was eating.
"Are you ok?" Leon asked, worried about D.
"Yes. Make T-chan stop…" D said softly.
Leon stood up and whistled. T-chan froze and turned to Leon. "Whaaaat?"
"That's Devin, right?" Leon glanced down at the mangled body of the still living man. (Ouch.) T-chan nodded and Leon pulled out some handcuffs and handcuffed him, before pulling out a communicator and calling for back up and an ambulance.
Leon patted T-chan's head briefly, earning a growl, before returning to D. "D?"
"I'm fine." D immediately answered, putting his arms around Leon's neck. Leon smiled.
"Good." He said as he dipped his head for a kiss. Devin moaned on the ground, obviously in pain from the many cuts, bruises, possibly broken bones, and soon to come scars. Leon kicked at him lightly. "Looks like he bled out enough to paint a building." He laughed. D's eyes widened a bit and he turned, retching again. "Oh. Sorry, D." Leon apologized.
A Few Hours Later
D, Leon, T-chan, Jill, Julie, and Siegl returned to the petshop. As they opened the door, random animals yelled out greetings, and Jar shouted, "Daddy! Femto-kun came home!"
D smiled as his favorite cat stepped out from the hallway. "Femto-kun, you're back!"
Siegl raised an eyebrow and approached Femto-kun. He stared into Femto-kun's eyes, making him blush slightly and then slowly walked around him, looking him over. When he was standing in front of him again, he simply responded with, "Me-ow." Femto-kun's blush grew brighter.
Leon burst into laughter. "Dear Lord, Femto-kun's got a boyfriend!" Femto-kun glared angrily at Leon, only to be interrupted by Siegl swiftly licking him on the cheek. Femto-kun froze a few seconds; his face the color of a cherry, and then shyly smiled at Siegl.
"I'm Siegl, beautiful." Siegl introduced himself.
"Femto-kun." Femto-kun purred softly.
Leon was still laughing when his cell phone rang. "Yeah?" He answered it.
D asked Femto-kun, "Where did you go?"
"Some man stole me, but I got away." Femto-kun answered.
"A death?" Everyone paused to listen to Leon. He sighed. "Dwayne Thundercloud?" D glanced questioningly at Femto-kun, who turned away. "Right…right…scratched up pretty bad…missing his what? That's sick! Hm? Oh, yeah, sure. Ok." Leon hung up and turned to Femto-kun. "Why'd you kill him? And what'd you do with his…um…" He glanced at Jill and Julie.
"It's under his bed. And he deserved it. I didn't mean to kill him. Just hurt him." Femto-kun defended himself.
Siegl laughed. "I like you already!" Femto-kun blushed again.
Kia: Hehe…Siegl and Femto-kun! Yay! Femto-kun needed someone. Anyway. Don't forget what I asked you to do in the beginning of the chapter!
