Chapter III

"Now, do you want to deal with me?" says the mad doctor. He knew that Tsuzuki will do all in his possible to save this 'little brat' as he called Hisoka.

Tsuzuki tried as hard as possible to break the invisible string that held him to the tree, but his efforts only brought him to bleed where the strings touched the skin. Muraki saw the red line that ran down the Shinigami's throat. The blood lust holds him. This red blood on this white skin, how could the famous vampire resist? He moved down his head and liked the blood off. 'So tasteful… I want more! More of it, more of him...'

"Muraki!" the voice of Tsuzuki brought him back to the reality. It wasn't time for this.

He went up to Tsuzuki's ear and whisper with his husky voice "It was so irresistible, and your blood is so tasteful" then he moved away "These strings are made with women's hairs, they are very strong. If you struggle, you'll only hurt yourself."

"Tell me what's the deal" He was resigned to do all the possible to save Hisoka. Muraki had already done too many bad things to this one.

"I like to see you submissive when your eyes want to shred me. Well, the deal is to stay two days and two nights with me, only this." A delightful smile came on his face like if the two were two old friends playing. Tsuzuki looked sceptical. "And you promise to release Hisoka if I stay two day with you? Why would I believe you? Who say that you'll do what you say after have what you want?"

Muraki only grinned and his mechanical eye glowed in a sinister blue. "Nothing. You'll only be certain that if you don't agree, I'll make him suffer, mentally and physically, for the rest of his afterlife. Even if you kill me right now." The strings around Tsuzuki loosen their grip and fell on the ground. Tsuzuki was free. Free to punch the man in front him. Free to kill him right now. But he didn't do it. He knew that the doctor's threats weren't jokes, and even if he was Muraki, the man who tried to take his body and hurt Hisoka, he didn't want to see someone died again. Even if this someone was a bloody mad murder.

Muraki reached his hand toward Tsuzuki "So, do you agree?" Tsuzuki's beautiful purple eyes were now filled with sadness. "Can I do differently?" Tsuzuki whispered for himself, not even hoping for an answer. "Of course you have. There're always many choices, but everybody has to select or sort out them. So tell me; what's your choice?"

Tsuzuki looked at the always reached hand and took it. At the same time Muraki's smile widened and he tightened his hand on the one in his. In an abruptly movement, he pulled on Tsuzuki's arm. The purple eyes Shinigami fell on the doctor chest and a light blush came on this one cheeks when a powerful arm snacked around his slender waist and close the distance between the two bodies.

"I'm sure you made the right choice my dear." Says Muraki, as he held the Shinigami's chin with a hand, forcing him to look in his eyes.

In a white light in a fall of immaculate feathers around them, the two of them disappeared.

-----

"You can open your eyes my beloved, we are arrived." Tsuzuki had closed his eyes and hold the man in front of him tightly without realizing. He suddenly pulled him, like if he had hugged a dangerous snake.

Tsuzuki looked around him. He was in a very big European living room. "Where are we?"

"It's my family house. I don't come often here, but for you my dear, I want the best." Muraki tried to get closer to a moving back Tsuzuki until his back hit a wall. Then Muraki took advantage of the chance to close the distance, only allowing an inch between them. He put his two hands on the wall, each one near Tsuzuki head, not allowing him to move. He lowered his head near Tsuzuki ear and whisper in a very seductive voice.

"You don't know how attractive you are, Tsuzuki. All on you is so sweet. Your eyes, your smell… your taste." He slowly sucked and nibbled the lobe of the ear near his mouth.

This gesture send a shiver down the purple eyes Shinigami's spine. He really didn't know why, the only hot breath of the person he was supposed hate the most, mad him react like that. When this one nibbled his ear, all he could do was to turn his head on the opposite side. Muraki moved his head back to see the face of his beloved. He couldn't restrain a smile as he saw reddening blush on the smaller pinned man.

"Well, if we don't prepare ourselves now, we'll be late for the dinner." The doctor says while he moved back from Tsuzuki. Tsuzuki looked Muraki with questioning eyes.

"Well yes, I have organized a little dinner for us two. Don't look at me with those eyes, like it was something don't credible. Now we have to change because the restaurant where we go is a very luxurious one."

Tsuzuki looked strange, like something disturbed him "What is it my dear? Do you have a problem?" Muraki saw directly that Tsuzuki wasn't normal and looked deeply in his amethyst eyes "Tell me what's wrong."

"Hem… it's … it's that you say we'll go to a luxurious restaurant and… hem… I didn't bring changing clothes with me."

Muraki blinked twice and chuckle. "You are so fun my dear. Of course you didn't bring others clothes. Who do you think I am? I already think of this. Here in the room you'll find some news clothes I chose for you. I'm sure they'll suit you."

Tsuzuki followed the owner of the house to room in question. He found in a beautiful and very big bedroom, on a king size bed, two set of suit. One was all in black, except for the shirt and the tie, and the other completely white.

Muraki sat on the bed and looked toward the beautiful Shinigami "Please, change you." Tsuzuki took his new suit and looked Muraki "A-are you staying here… when I change?" Muraki nodded "Of course. I wouldn't miss this for nothing in the world."

Tsuzuki blushed brightly. He didn't like and wasn't used to been looked when he changed. But he does it. It was for Hisoka. He knows that the mad doctor had locked Hisoka up somewhere and wouldn't release him until the end of the deal. 'Well…' he thought 'as long as he is with me, he can't hurt Hisoka.' And on this last thought, he starts to undress, turning the back to Muraki.

Muraki looked at the beautiful unmarked skin from the man in front of him 'I was right, he is only perfect. These skin, those muscles … all his body is a perfection' Muraki savoured each little samples of skin he could see. Tsuzuki, on the other hand, felt this burning lustful glance on his back, and tried to wear his suit as fast as possible, revealing the least possible all his skin..

"My my Tsuzuki. How splendid you are. You are beautiful. More beautiful than I thought and hopped" Tsuzuki looked very gracious in this beautiful high quality suit.

Tsuzuki frown 'Those words… I have heard them in my dream'

"What did you just say Muraki?" the questioned one smiles a delightful smile "I just say that your beauty surpassed all my dreams." And he started to strip him in some gracious manner. Tsuzuki was mesmerized by the alabaster skin and those muscles that rolled beneath it. 'How white he is. And what a beautiful body he has! He doesn't have anything to envy me. 'Then he blushed at his thought. 'What I am doing! He is only trying to trick me! I mustn't fall in this trap.'

"How do I look my beloved?" asked the like-angel Muraki. "Like always. You look like a snowflake, what else."

Muraki chuckled at the answer "You are so cute when you try to be mean Tsuzuki. Well it's time for our dinner my dear. Lets just go." He wrapped his arm around Tsuzuki waist, pulling him closer to his side. And they walked side by side to the car: a delightful white Muraki near a sweaty, blushing and frowning black Tsuzuki.

-----

The car stopped in front a very big building. "Wow! This is a very big restaurant. Only the fact to seat in it must be expensive." Says the purple eyes Shinigami, as Muraki opened the car door and reached his hand to help Tsuzuki to exit the car. "Yes he is." Simply answer Muraki "Now come, our table is waiting for us."

On the entrance, a man waited. "Oh, good evening sir Muraki, your table is just here. Please follow me." Tsuzuki looked choked. Was Muraki that famous, to be know by all the staff they meet? Well, it was really that any one who looked the kike-angel doctor would remember him.

All the guests glanced at them when they walked toward their table. Who wouldn't notice the two perfect opposite looking men?

"Here are your table gentlemen. I'll come back soon for your order." Tsuzuki was a little tensed. He didn't have much the occasion to go in expensive restaurants with his pay.

"Relax my dear. Here you don't have to worry about what others think of you. I have booked all this room for you, to not be disturbed by other's glance." He was right. Tsuzuki looked around him and saw no other table than their. All the room was empty, except the table where they were. With this information, the tensed Shinigami relaxed a little.

The waiter came with two menus in his hand "Here you are." He reached the menu in front of the two men. Tsuzuki opened the menu in his hands. 'What the… it's all in French!' He looked very annoyed cause he didn't spoke a word of French, but Muraki ordered for the two, without asking his guest.

The waiter nodded and went. Muraki looked Tsuzuki, as he could read the questions in his mind. "Well yes, I speak French and I order you 'un steak de cheval à la sauce tartare avec frites'" and he chuckle at the questioning face of the Shinigami.

At first, the waiter came with two salads and putted the dishes on the table, in front of the two men. He moved the near Muraki right side with a bottle of red wine in his hand. "Sir, the owner wished to give you this wine bottle to thank you for your presence." Muraki took the bottle and look at them name "Oh, a 'Château de Fragues'. You'll tank the owner for this gift. You can go now." With a nod, the waiter goes out of the room.

Tsuzuki looked his dish, then Muraki. "This is only the entrée my dear. It opens your appetite. The principal dish will come later." Tsuzuki took a fork and eat all the salads in his dish in a record time.

"My my, what appetite. Would you like a glass of wine that the owner gifts us?" the doctor didn't even wait for an answer and filled Tsuzuki glass. Tsuzuki took a sip. This wine was very good.

Minutes later someone came with the two meals. On the dish of the Shinigami, was a big horse steak with some sauce on it. Near the meat were an incalculable number of French fries. Tsuzuki eyes shined at the see of the meal. He hadn't seen a so exquisite meal in many years. He cut the meat and put it in his mouth. It was tender and tasteful. He was in heaven.

Muraki, on his side, only ordered an omelette. He looked Tsuzuki eaten his steak with a joyful face. Amethyst eyes met silver's one. "If you don't eat, your omelette will become cold, you know?" Tsuzuki was looking now at Muraki untouched meal, he's dish now empty.

"I don't have very hungry, but if you want it, you can eat it." He offered his dish to Tsuzuki, who accepted immediately.

For dessert, they ate a chocolate mousse. Of course, Tsuzuki ate it like the goal was to put the most around his mouth.

The dessert ended, Muraki chuckle and got up from his chair and walked toward the messed Shinigami. He sat on the nearest chair to Tsuzuki. The doctor holds Tsuzuki's chin with his hand and turned his head so he faced him.

"This chocolate only made you sweeter than you are." He took the napkin and cleaned Tsuzuki's face. "You are so perfect, you know? Only an angel can match your beauty"

Tsuzuki held Muraki's hand and mowed it away of his face "Stop that. Tell me what you really want. Now!" The Shinigami's face became suddenly hard and serious.

Muraki looked the Shnigami with his usual smile. "You already know the answer. It's you that I want."

"I don't believe this. If you really want me, you could have rape me many times in the past, like you did to the others … to Hisoka.

Muraki looked at first surprised, but his astonishment changed into a chuckle, then in a very eerie laughs that made Tsuzuki shiver. "HA HA HA… you don't understand even now. You aren't like the others. People think that everyone has his perfect copy in the world, some other half of ourselves. You don't. You can look in this world or in an other, you'll never found him, because he don't exist" he took back his hand that Tsuzuki hold. He took his wine glass and brought it to his lips. "God couldn't recreate something as perfect as you twice, and then he creates your perfect opposite, me. but the most beautiful things are always evil, so you are. And because nothing can be perfectly the same or the opposite, so I am too.

"What are you talking about?" Tsuzuki couldn't believe want he just heard.

"Yes my dear. I am you antithesis, but we are both monsters.

"I am not a monster." Says Tsuzuki in a firm voice.

"Oh yes you are. How could you explain that somebody can still be alive after having spent eight years without eat or drink and opened his veins?"

"I am not alive. I kill myself years ago." Tsuzuki clenched his fists on his legs.

"Are you really sure of what you says? Then I'll tell you something: You are not dead. Enma says so to have you as his Shinigami. But you are alive. You are half demon as I. All I do, I do to be liked by you." Muraki voice seemed to be suddenly the voice of a mad.

"You are lying! I am human and not a demon! And if you like me, stop killing people!" Tsuzuki started to shiver and his eyes were now filled with anger, pain and tears.

Muraki only smirk "Oh no my dear Tsuzuki, I'm not lying and you know that. The people in the town were you lived in your childhood knew that to. That's why they hated you, your eyes…"

"STOP THAT!" says the begging voice of a despaired Tsuzuki who blocking his ears with his hands to not hear more and closed his eyes to not look at the pictures of his past.

"Yes, my beloved, remember. Accept what you really are and be proud of it. You are a half demon. Oh, about killing people, this is what demons do to attract their mates. You are made to be mine and I wouldn't give up"

It was too much to bear. Tsuzuki suddenly opened widely his eyes, raised his head up, looked only seconds the ceiling and suddenly faint.

Muraki smile with compassion for the sleeping man near him. "You have to accept what you are or you'll destroy yourself in the end… and I couldn't allow this to happen." He took Tsuzuki in his arms and left the restaurant with his unconscious beloved.

-----

Someone walked in a very long and dark hall of a mansion. This someone opened a big door who allowed the entrance to a big room. The man, who was knelt in front of a very luxurious seat who was seat a man all wore in old European clothes, lowered his head.

"So what are you doing here? Haven't I given you a mission to carry out?" the voice came from the seat and was very beautiful and sensual but at the same time eerie.

"I am sorry my Lord, but something came interfere with your plan." Says the knelt man

"And what is it?" The voice was sharper than earlier

"Well Sir Tsuzuki has disappeared suddenly. I was waiting to found the demon that does so many problems but didn't found him. Then I tried to found Sir Tsuzuki but he just disappeared without trace. I looked in the entire department but nothing. I beg you to forgive me for my mistake."

"You are forgiven. Even I can't found where now Tsuzuki is. Somebody has put a spell around him, a very powerful spell. But I hope that it will not repeat in the future… Hiro"

The kneeled man moved his head up to see the man seat in front of him. "Yes my master. I wouldn't disappoint you." The man on the ground was no one else but Hiro, the businessman who Tsuzuki and Hisoka protected.
