Chapter 1: Friends, aren't we?
Two teenage boys stand before a three story building. Gunshots are heard around the building and inside. On the first floor of the building is a sign with gold trimming that says 'Pegasus'. One of the boys wore a white buttoned long sleeved shirt and jeans with wild gold, black and red hair and dark purple eyes. The other boy wore a jean jacket with a white tee-shirt underneath and khakis, his long blond bangs shadowing his eyes.
"Are you sure you want to do this?" The tri color haired boy asks quietly. The blond next to him clenches his fist with one hand and reaches in his back pocket for his gun in the other. A cold smirk is sketched across his handsome face.
"Hell yes, Yami. I've been ready." They both step forward towards the door before kicking it down.
'Let the games begin….'
"Do you understand what you are doing to yourself, Kaiba boy?" A purpled haired man asked as he sipped his wine glass. His smooth looking shoulder length locks barely was barely touching his lavender leisure suit. Kaiba sat across from him in an office, bodyguards surrounding the purple haired man. Leaning back against the chair in front of the purple haired man with his arms crossed against his chest, he smirked comfortably.
"Trust me fool, I know what I am doing. I'm protecting my fathers organization and my brother. That's what I'm doing. And I'm not going to let some sick fuck take over my organization." Kaiba was still a young man, looking much older than he really was. The way he held himself made him look older. His dark navy blue button shirt with the two first buttons undone and the way his tie hung loosely indicated that he just came from an office. His infamous trench coat laid across his lap, white trench coat looking as expensive and dignified as he was. The way his brown bangs covered his eyes made him look mysterious, dangerous.
"So I guess I'm wasting my time?" He asked sarcastically. With a nod, a flash of his cold blue eyes were seen, giving the bodyguards who were eyeing him intently a chill down their backs.
"I'm done here." He coldly stated, and got up to leave. The bodyguards stepped forwards, ready to protect their boss. With a wave of his hand, the bodyguards stepped down.
"Yes. You are. You may not see it now, but soon you will. I WILL take what you have and more if you do not comply with my wishes. You can protect what you want, but under my supervision. It is the only safe way you may do so. And not to mention, ONLY way to do so without seeing any bloodshed. So, one more try Kaiba boy. One more. Then after that, you will bleed for me." The whole time he spoke in a cool, drawling manner, like he was almost bored. Hearing enough, Kaiba turned his back on him, and headed towards the door. No one was with him. No one to protect him. He couldn't fire just yet. Those guys beside him would kill him in a second. Before he reached the door knob, a boy in a pizza delivery baseball cap with a pizza box in one hand popped out of the door, making him step back in surprise.
"Anybody order a pizza?" He cheerfully asked. The purple haired man stood up with a big smile and held out his hands towards the pizza boy.
"Someone get that before I eat the pizza boy!" The way the purple haired man looked at the pizza boy made both Kaiba and the pizza boy nervous. Kaiba rolled his eyes and stomped out of the room. Something about that delivery boy was weird. The way he just popped in the room was unnerving. He didn't even remember Pegasus ordering a pizza and he was with him for over an hour. Pegasus… Today he was supposed to rid of that annoying Pegasus. Every plan that man had involved his organization. The man was power hungry and was slowly getting the power he desired. There were rumors going around that he has some sort of apprentice. If that was true and there was another man out there just like him, then no one was safe. He couldn't let this go on. If it did, he would be in great danger as well as his brother. After looking around the building for anymore bodyguards, he realized that the only bodyguards around were the four that surrounded Pegasus. He knew there was a room around the floor Pegasus was currently in that held any of his plans. He had to truly know what he was planning, if he was planning anything.
The room he was looking for was right across Pegasus office, the door wide open. He could tell because the brief case Pegasus always had with all his papers was sitting on top of the computer table, calling out for anyone to open it up. Maybe it was a trick? There was no way in hell that he would just conveniently leave the door open for him so he can search through his stuff. Going in anyways, he slowly and quietly entered the room and turned on the computer. On the screens were some left over data, and memos. One of the memos read;
Mokuba Kaiba. Seto Kaiba: fortune: 46,434,378,679. Businesses in America. After both of their deaths there will be no one else to receive the fortune. I propose a plan to inherited the organization by uniting both clans together. Therefore, the clan will be left to Pegasus. J. Crawford. The only objective after uniting is the factor of the two. The solution is to eliminate them both; Mokuba and Seto Kaiba.
His plan was obvious. Allow their organizations to merge so that whatever is Kaiba's is Pegasus. No doubt he would try to kill them afterwards. He would kill his younger brother. No one ever dared to try to disturb what little family he had left. Mokuba was all he did have left. A gun cocking behind him brought him out of his trance, and towards one of the bodyguards.
"Mr. Crawford thought you would find that. So how about it? This is your last chance." The man stated. Little did he know that Kaiba saw his reflection on the computer screen and had his gun ready for him underneath his trench coat.
After the bodyguard paid for the pizza, the four bodyguards sat around in another table and ate the pizza along with Pegasus. Honda stayed patiently, making sure they ate the pizza. After they all took a few bites he smiled at them, and bowed. Soon they would be drugged up enough for Jounouchi to finish his business with Pegasus and steal their safe in his office. This was their first big job and Honda was their pawn. If he didn't drug their pizza, the guards would not fall asleep. If the don't fall asleep, they could kill Yami and Jounouchi if they came in to do their business. A while ago he thought he heard something from the outside, but paid no attention to it. They've done this before and he knew he was being paranoid. When he did this with his friends, he was always paranoid and it turned out to be nothing.
"Glad you enjoyed the pizza, call us again!" Before any of the body guards could say or do anything to the boy they thought was gone already, gunshots outside the door was heard. Usually Honda would signal them in. Why the hell are they here now?
"They started way to early, damn it! " Honda cursed out loud. Pegasus stood up and yelled at the guards to see what that was.
The door swung open, revealing a shot bodyguard.
"He's heading downstairs." The man moaned before he fell down on the floor. Panicking, the delivery boy ran out, afraid that it was his two friends who started too early. When he reach the top of the stairs which showed a little from the downstairs, he saw his blond friend Jounouchi shooting some guys on the last floor. Meanwhile his other friend Yami was looking around the room to see if anymore body guards were around in the second floor. Behind him the four bodyguards were running towards him with guns ready to fire. Out of no where, three gunshots were heard from his side and two of the men went down. A hand grabbed his shoulder pulling him away from the stairs making him start breaking into a run towards a hallway that lead to other stairs.
"Get away. You have to go before you get shot, unless you want to." a cold voice said, From behind he recognized who it was. It was the young man from before. He was a known in the streets. Seto Kaiba. The swishing of his trench coat echoed in his ears along with the gunshots from downstairs. His father was an important man a couple of years ago before he was shot down. The Kaiba family has been on the down low until now. Those cold eyes were recognizable anywhere. On the second floor, he turned around towards the pizza boy.
"Thank you. My friends need help though." He shouted over the gunshots. Kaiba turned around once again to head towards an unknown hallway.
"Yea. I know. I'm going to help them. Meanwhile you can continue down those stairs and hide out in the back of the building. I'm sure you guys have get away car or something. Get it ready for us when we escape." He ran off into the dark hallway without another word.
Now it was time to help those guys out who helped him. If it wasn't for that blond he would have been shot by those bodyguards. They came out of no where after he shot the man. He tried reaching the bottom of the stairs when six more bodyguards awaited him, ready to greet him with bullets. One by one they all fell down, being shot from behind. There was a blond young man and a tri-color haired young man ready with guns as well.
"I guess I underestimated how many guys there were." He admitted with a smirk.
"You mean there's more?" The blond asked coolly. With a nod they both turned their backs on each other to shoot the men behind them. "We should team up. For tonight." He suggested. Kaiba turned around, his gun pointed towards the blond. Kaiba didn't realize the tri-color haired boy was beside him, gun pointed at him as well and so was the blonds. That one was fast. Why was he so familiar?
"Why not? As long as we all get out alive." He replied, his eyebrow raised in a cocky manner, obviously not phased by the two guns pointed at him. "Ready?" Two boys nodded. The blond stepped forward and shot a man behind Kaiba.
"Jounouchi." He acknowledged his name. "The other is Yami. There's a delivery boy upstairs by the name of Honda. He's our friend and we need to get the baby out of this mess before he shoots himself." Kaiba stepped backwards and leveled his gun above Jounouchi's head. He shot at something that crashed down on the man behind Jounouchi. Meanwhile Jounouchi didn't even flinch at the sight of the gun pointed towards him.
"Kaiba. I'm gonna go back upstairs. There's something I need to take of." Interrupting his next sentence, Jounouchi said,
"Me too. I'll meet you there." They both ran the opposite directions, Jounouchi heading towards the front door to shut it, and Kaiba running up stairs, Yami following behind, shooting anyone who was coming towards them with Kaiba's help.
When he ran by one door in the seemingly empty hallway , he heard a thud. Knowing it was a man's body that fell by the sound of the thud, he stood beside the door, gun ready in one hand and his other hand on the door knob. Slowly he opened it after not hearing another sound. Poking his head in, he saw there was only a mans body sprawled on the queen sized bed in the middle of the room. There were a gag on the floor and rope around the headboard and foot of the bed. The man was a bodyguard of Pegasus. He could tell by his shades and his black suit. Stepping inside more, he readied his gun. Out of no where a gun cocked on top of him. Looking up, he held his hands up, dropping the gun. Thankful that his long trench coat hid his guns, he prepared himself to reach for one of them to shoot the boy. He wouldn't kill him since he was young, but he would make sure the boy would not harm him. A young boy was propped above the doorway, holding on to the sides of wall in the small hallway. His long hair covering his face.
"Slowly, step forwards." The voice of the boy said. After Kaiba did what he was told, he heard the boy drop down to the ground. "Good. Now turn around." Once again he did as he was told and saw that the boy had breasts. Big ones at that. Such a small frame and such big breasts, he thought. Why did he notice them in the first place? The girl had her hair down in a long mess, only some long growing out bangs swept across her right eye. Her fell down below her breasts. She wore torn tight jeans with a black tank top and white dirty sneakers. All in all, she looked like she's been through hell. There were a pair of hand cuffs dangling from her right wrist, and on both of her wrists there were scratches and bruises on them. Now he knew who was tied up on that bed just moments ago. "You're not one of his men. Who are you?" The girl asked breathlessly, eyes alert and going from Kaiba to the man on the bed.
"I'm going after Pegasus. Who are you?" He asked back. She sighed and shut the door, stepping towards him and patting his sides carefully, gun still ready to be shot. Both his hands were still up as he let her pat his sides, her blue eyes looking up at him the whole time. The girl couldn't be a threat, she was being held captive by Pegasus while Kaiba was upstairs the whole time. It was a wonder why she didn't say anything, or he heard anything , but then he remembered the gag and the guard. The guards purpose was to obviously make sure she didn't say anything to alert Kaiba. His only question now was how did she take him down by herself while being tied up to a bed.
"My name is Mazaki, Anzu. My father was assassinated by Pegasus and he kidnapped me so he can kill me when I turn eighteen which is in five month so he could take the fortune my father left me." After saying the sentence in one breath she shakily sighed, and was finished patting him. "You have three guns in your coat and two more in each of your ankles." Hands now in his trench coat, she searched for one of the guns and pulled it out, making him stiffen. Her hands glided in and out of his coat like a professional thief. He barely felt her tiny hands. "I ran out of bullets in this one." She said. Intrigued with the girl, he caught himself examining her. Her sad dark sapphire eyes, her high cheek bones, full pouty lips, curvy but slim body. It was a surprise she wasn't a model. The thing that held her from becoming one was the fact that she looked like a mess with a dirty face and clothes. But her beauty would make up for it. Even with the dirt, she still looked like perfection. The fact that she was acting coolly about the whole situation and not screaming like a …like a woman, intrigued him even more.
The idea of Pegasus doing that to her made him want to vomit when he was done examining her. Here was beautiful young girl who was obviously tied in the bed behind him a little earlier and she lost everything. Well, was about to completely lose everything if Pegasus didn't die today. Kaiba right now was her only chance of freedom. But something inside him told him that even if he didn't come, she'd find some other way to get out of Pegasus confinement.
"I took the big guy out, he was easy to convince to let me out." After a dry chuckle, she held his gun to see if she could handle shooting it. "A rich young girl is appealing to most men, even if she looks like shit." It was a bitter joke. He knew she wanted out. The way she looked up at him told him that she has been waiting for this day. Her sad eyes held a sparkle in them. A sparkle of life.
"How long have you been under his control?" He asked quietly, while passing past her and picking up his gun from the floor, checking if he had bullets. The gunshots above him reminded him that he still had some unfinished business and could not waste anymore time.
"Two years." She quietly said before turning around towards the door, opening it. "Two years and now I want some retribution." The firing of her gun towards the hallway told him that in order for him to get back up to Pegasus, he had to first deal with those men Anzu was now firing at. She was really good at shooting… he wondered exactly who her father was.
Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
After they reached the third floor, he turned around and grasped Anzu shoulders in one move, making her gasp.
"Go. Go back downstairs, I need to do something I'd prefer you didn't see." Shaking her shoulder so he would take his hands off of them, she pushed him back. It was a surprise there was no one in the third floor.
"No. You're going to kill the man I have to kill. I should be the one to do it, he held me as a prisoner for two years! Do you understand what that is like? Two years Mr. Kaiba!" She quietly hissed in his face. Gunshots were still heard all around the building, but were slowly decreasing by the minute. Soon there were no more gunshot as they both just stared at each. Both secretly wondering what was happening downstairs. Soft footsteps were heard behind them. Their guns were ready for anyone coming their way.
"You cleared this area." A voice said from behind them. It was the same voice from that blond boy. Jounouchi. Anzu turned around to face both Jounouchi and Yami, pointing her gun at Jounouchi and her other hand retrieving a gun that was hidden behind her to point it towards Yami. Both Yami and Jounouchi didn't even catch her go for her other gun, she was that fast. Jounouchi's eyes went straight towards Anzu's, his eyes noticeably softening a little. "Who are you?" He asked. She noticed he was shot in the arm. Looking back at Kaiba, she cocked both her guns. Full of caution, her eyes went back and forwards from Yami to Jounouchi.
"My name is not important. What is important is the fact that I will be the one killing Pegasus. The bastard kidnapped me when I was fifteen and tortured me for two years." She said no more and walked towards his office door. Before she could open the door, both Jounouchi and Kaiba took either sides of her arm and pulled her away from the door.
"Mazaki, you can't just rush into his office. He might have people ready for us." Kaiba held her waist, and pulled her towards his chest, standing beside the door instantly to get her away from the door so she wouldn't get shot. Slowly, Jounouchi let go of her arm and stood by the opposite side of Kaiba and Anzu. Who was she? How did Kaiba know her? What did she mean by he kidnapped her for two years? This bastard obviously did enough to mess around with Kaiba and this vengeful young girl. The girl turned around, still close to his chest to face him.
"I will kill him. You have to give me that." She faced Jounouchi who stared at her attentively. "I don't know what he has done to you or Kaiba. But I bet my fortune that it's not as bad as what he done to me." Tears now brimming in the corners of her eyes, she shut them tight, a tear escaping from her left eye. One of her guns were now behind her once again, being held by her belt. "I wish to kill him, no matter what the consequences are. Promise me." she said, opening her eyes and now grasping one of her hands on Kaiba's front shirt with her fist. Kaiba sighed and looked at Jounouchi for an answer. Jounouchi on the other hand gave her a sympathetic look and shook his head.
"I have my own tasks. My own mission. I can't promise you that." Already knowing Jounouchi's answer, he couldn't bare to look at the disappointment in her eyes. Anzu did have a right to kill him. The bastard took two years of her life, doing God knows what to her. Kaiba pushed her back slightly.
"Let's go." Understanding, she knew she had to get to Pegasus first. But a gun shot making all four hit the ground threw that plan out the window. On the bottom stairs was Pegasus, running towards the door. Jounouchi on automatic, stood up with his gun in hand and ran down that stairs to catch him. In two seconds he was out the door after Pegasus.
"Come back here you bastard!" Was heard as Jounouchi ran out the door.
Anzu was on the floor still realizing that Kaiba was on top of her, shielding her with his body from any bullets. He got up too after Jounouchi ran out the door and pulled her up as well. Yami was already on the second floor, ready to back up his friend. Grabbing her hand, Kaiba ran down the stairs as well with Anzu behind him, trying to catch up. When they ran outside, she heard gunshots towards the back of the building.
"No, my kill." she whispered under her breath. She let go of Kaiba's hand and ran in front of him wanting to see if Pegasus was truly dead. When she arrived to where Jounouchi was, he was on his knees. His back turned towards her, she could see he was shot another time. The blood was dripping down his back. She didn't know what he was doing. In front of him was a scared and sweaty Pegasus with his gun pointed towards Jounouchi.
"My little Asian Princess. Anzu, why did you defy me again. You know what's going to happen now, don't you? You get to see him suffer as well as Kaiba boy. No one defeats me. No one. Do you hear that Katsuya? You little sister was a sweet treat to my boys. A sweet and quiet treat. My boys like it when they don't scream. The screaming just.." A gunshot was heard and Pegasus fell on one knee, screaming. "Who the hell shot me!" Behind Anzu was Kaiba. Kaiba did one thing Anzu didn't; hid in the shadows for a perfect shot. Kaiba obviously missed his head or heart to instant kill him for her. It was her kill. But before she could, Jounouchi stood up and screaming in anguish shooting Pegasus countless times. His quiet sobs were heard, making her look down in shame for being so selfish. He had his turmoil's, his revenge too. Pegasus went after his family, his sister. She didn't know what was worse. Being raped or seeing your father being killed. Either way it was caused by Pegasus. Yami was no where to found, but they did hear a car honk behind them. Honda and Yami were both in it.
"Come on, the cops are coming." Honda yelled out. Jounouchi stood up slowly and numbly walked towards the car, away from Pegasus.
"I know you wanted to do it yourself. I'm sorry." He whispered to Anzu when he passed by her. She still looked down at her sneakers and just nodded slightly. It was over for her, she thought. No more plotting to run away. No more wondering if they were going to hit her today. No more crying herself to sleep. No more eating whatever garbage Pegasus literally threw at her. No more pretending to be a young sex slave so that Pegasus could trick his business men into thinking that she was for them before Pegasus shot them coldly in front of her. No more cleaning up after Pegasus. The torture was all over. She was free. It was so horrible to stay with that man. His men leering at her. Watching her grow up before them. Them oggling her breasts, her butt, her body. It was disgusting. They were disgusting. The whole situation was. And these young men helped her. But could she trust them? Turning around, she saw Jounouchi was still standing behind her, waiting for something.
"He's dead. That's all the matters." She whispered. Kaiba looked up at her. He was now standing beside Jounouchi, facing her. "I don't know where I should go now." Jounouchi's eyes lit up slightly, and a goofy smile appeared in his face.
"You could come with us. You could live with my sister. I live right across from her and so does Honda and Yami. We all live in the same development." He said. Kaiba looked at the both of them not knowing what to say and decided to leave. The swish of his trench coat caught Jounouchi's attention. "Hey. You could come along too. I owe you anyways. We had each others backs tonight." Anzu smiled and ran towards the car, her mood suddenly changing. She, feeling the freedom she once lost.
"We should have a little party. It would be fun!" She said, and opened the car sitting in the backseat of the Toyota. Both Jounouchi and Kaiba looked at each other and nodded.
"I could use a couple of drinks after tonight." Kaiba mumbled.
"A couple? I need a tubs worth of drinks after tonight. My sister can repair any wounds we got, but it'll hurt like a bitch." Honda whooped and Yami honked the horn.
"It's settled then! We should all go party!" Anzu, Kaiba and Jounouchi sat in the back while Yami drove and Honda was in the passenger side. Sitting next to Kaiba, she smiled sweetly. He looked back at her, a slight scowl on his face. He was covered in blood, and the graze on his arm bled down his arm. Anzu touched his arm, right above his wound.
"I can't thank you enough, Kaiba." She whispered. Honda was playing loud music as Jounouchi yelled at him about how there wasn't enough drugs in the pizza.
"I put a lot on it, I swear!" Honda yelled out as Yami laughed. Sitting back down, Jounouchi stuck his hand out past Kaiba towards Anzu.
"My name is Jounouchi Katsuya, you can call me Jounouchi. All my friends do. Since you're going to live with my sister I have to ask your name." Hesitantly, she shook his hand delicately.
"Mazaki, Anzu." She yelled over the music. Jounouchi nodded in approval.
"Lovely name. The one driving is Yami and the idiot in the passenger seat is Honda." Honda heard him and leaned back in the seat to hit him with his cap. Anzu laughed at them fighting like brothers and nudged Kaiba's arm. He looked back at her after he dodged Honda's cap from hitting him instead of Jounouchi.
"Weird group, huh?" She chuckled, showing her pearly white perfect teeth and her sweet laugh sounding like music in his ears, making him smile back at her. His smile was comforting to her.
"Yea. More like a dorky group." He chuckled back. As they drove away from the building, sirens could be heard in the distance.
This could be something. A start of a great friendship.' Anzu thought. What she didn't know was the turmoil's that were to come from this friendship.
So? Like? Not like? This is just the first chapter, trust me, this story got lots of angst, action, romance.. It's an extravaganza of …… things….Until next time!
