WKWKWKWKWKWKWKWKWKWKWKWKWKWKWKWKWKWKWKWKWKWKChapter two- Blast from the past…
Ken's POVI screamed out when we entered the Koneko, all the pain that I had been ignoring for the entire car journey had just welled up with a vengeance. I couldn't even focus my gaze on anything anymore and the only reason I was standing was because of Ran's arm around my waist. Even half walking was getting hard to do now, Omi was practically in tears and was being comforted by Yohji. I would have told him that I was going to be fine but I couldn't, all I could do now was scream.
"What…what's going on?" Aya asked as she stepped into the shop wrapping her dressing gown around her and rubbing her eyes free of sleep. It was late or rather early, roughly half past two in the morning. She gasped when she saw me and ran over to where I was stood. "Ran what happened?"
"He got shot, help me get him to my room, Omi get me the first aid kit, Yohji supplies would be useful. Hurry!" He barked and repositioned his arm so that he had a firmer grip around me. Aya gently placed her arm on my back and moved my arm so that it was draped over her shoulders as she helped her brother carry me to his room.
"Ran, I've seen this same wound before on Yohji, it shouldn't be as painful as this," I could barely hear their voices, it was all little more than a drone to me now but I noticed the look in Ran's eyes at what Aya had said. It was one of agreement and confusion; it was a strange thing indeed to see Fujimiya Ran look confused. I screamed again as something tightened within me, it felt like my muscles were contracting around the bullet and it hurt like hell. Tears welled in the corners of my eyes as I tried to force the pain away.
"Ken! Don't succumb to the pain, fight it," I chuckled and leaned closer to him, I could just about get my voice to a whisper and with a smile let my words drift across his skin and into his head.
"Easy for you to say, Ran, this isn't like any ordinary bullet wound, it's different…I don't know how but it is…" He nodded and kicked open his bedroom door, I collapsed unable to stand at all anymore. Aya's hold around me wasn't strong enough to keep me up and half of my body fell. Ran struggled to keep himself and the rest of my body up, he did so and used his other arm to sweep me off my feet. Bridal style just as he had said he would do, and carry me into his room.
"Aya-chan put on the lights and go find Omi and Yohji!" The redhead barked as he placed me down on his bed, the sudden light blinded me and I had to blink several times to regain my vision. He quickly removed my goggles and his gloves before placing the back of his hand on my forehead. He yelped slightly and pulled away from me. "Shit, Ken do you feel hot?"
"No, nor do I feel cold, it's like I've gone completely numb to everything save for this pain in my side." I muttered and coughed the pressure in my lungs kept growing and falling and it was really starting to annoy me. "Ah! Fuck, Ran, get…it…out…please… ah!" He stared down at me and nodded, he ripped open his coat and discarded it on the floor before turning his attention back to me. He leaned over me and lightly lifted me from the bed, just enough so that he could remove my jacket without injuring me. After that he untied the jumper that was around my waist and placed it on the floor next to his coat. "AH!" I screamed and arched up in pain,
"Ken!" Omi yelled as he ran into the room, Yohji following closely behind, and put the kit on the bed, Aya-chan stood in the doorway prepared to go and get anything if and when Ran asked. "Should I give him a sedative? Something to help with the pain?" The youngest Weiss member asked as he sat beside the bed.
"No," Ran ordered and turned back to me, "Ken you've got to understand, I need you to stay awake so that you can tell me if it still hurts afterwards. I know it sounds strange but just do it," I stared up at him with a confused look on my face but nodded anyway. After all how did I know if I was going to be able to endure the pain and stay awake? As if he had been reading my thoughts he replied, "You can do it Ken, you're an assassin and one of the strongest I know, just trust me,"
"Fine…just…do it…" I whispered, Ran nodded and motioned for Yohji to bring him the box he was holding he did so and the stoic leader of Weiss opened it to reveal several knives. I would have objected to the other using a knife to cut a bullet out of my stomach but what other option did I have? I watched the way the light reflected off of the blade and studied the movement of Ran's wrist as he brought it down to my shirt. With one flick of the wrist he had ripped my shirt off and had set to work on the task of removing the bullet.
I resisted the urge to arch up as the knife tore my skin and skilfully entered my body I felt two hands pushing down on my right side and then two pushing down on my left. I opened my eyes to see Omi to my left and Yohji to my right; they smiled warmly at me and winked. I gave a weak smile back in return,
"Try not to move too much Kenken, Rany-boy may be skilled with that knife but if you move he might slip and well lets just say none of us want that to happen." I smiled up at him and he smiled back.
"AH STOP NO AH!" I screamed as I felt the blade slice the muscles within me, Yohji sighed and shook his head,
"No can do Kenken, Ran's almost there, just take a deep breath,"
"Shut up Yohji I'm not giving birth you idiot!" I had the overwhelming urge to punch him square in the jaw right at that moment but thought better off it when I remembered that Ran currently had a knife lodged in my abdomen. There was silence for a few minutes as I bit down on my lip to stop the cries of agony, I sighed when I felt the knife leave my body and a warm towel press against my stomach. Yet the pain didn't diminish in any way shape or form.
"Damn it!" I recognised that to be the voice of my surgeon and opened my eyes to see Ran stood before me holding what I presumed to be the bullet.
"What is it?" Omi asked as he let go of me and walked over to the redhead, Yohji stayed by my side and Aya-chan replaced Omi at the other. Ran just stared at me, his eyes telling me something that I really didn't want to know. "Ran? I demand that you tell us what's wrong right now!" Omi yelled the taller male sighed and passed him the bullet.
"It's no ordinary bullet, you see the shell is built to stay in one piece on impact which lowers the damage once it enters the body compared to one which shatters. However there's a nasty little catch, one much like the catch with Omi's darts and that it that once it enters the body it releases a toxin. Without the knowledge of what this poison is I cannot treat it, all that I know is that it is fast acting and causes a hell of a lot of pain."
"So I'm pretty much…ah…fucked…then…am I right?" I chuckled and sighed; the people around me were silent. None wishing to speak the truth I chuckled again and stared at each of them in turn. "Hey, stop mourning I'm not dead yet," Ran growled and Yohji and Omi glared at me, Aya-chan smiled weakly and placed her hand on my shoulder. I let my head fall against the pillow and closed my eyes, I couldn't help but remember that kid that we had met today. The one with the white hair that had risked his life in order to pay for his brothers well being. He'd risked his life to bring us a message…a message that was still in my pocket…a message from who?
The silence in the room had become uncomfortable and unwanted and so to entertain myself I leaned forward and reached into my back pocket, searching for the black envelope with which I would occupy myself until someone decided to talk.
Ran's POVI stared at the brunette as he lay on my bed, his chest coated with blood as was my hands only it was different to all the other times because it was his blood on my hands now. It was the blood of my friend, Hidaka Ken, a man I had known for what seemed like an eternity. He shifted forward on the bed and slipped his hand into his back pocket I continued to watch him as he removed the black envelope from earlier and held it in his hands. I stood at the foot of his bed and allowed him to open it and read it before interrupting.
He broke the seal on the back and opened the envelope slipping a black piece of paper out and skimming over it. His eyes widened and he glanced up at me pushing the paper back into the envelope and passing it over to me. I took it from him and raised an eyebrow in confusion.
"Read it, trust me, ah, it's one hell of a blast from the past." I removed the paper and glanced at him before looking back at the letter in my hand.
'WeissIt's been so long since we encountered each other, but the time has come for us once again to meet. A new mission has brought us back into Japan, into your domain, Katsuya Iwata is under our protection and thus you will not be able to harm him. We gave you a warning with Ken this time, it will not happen again I can guarantee you that.
Oh and do not fear for Ken, as I said this was only a warning to you, as such you will find the antidote to the poison behind the counter of the koneko flower shop. Well done on an unsuccessful mission Weiss, it has been foreseen that we will be seeing each other very soon.
Love Schwartz, before you ask…no…we are not dead, unfortunately for you we are not ones to be killed so easily…till the next time we meet Weiss, ja ne,
Remember as long as Weiss lives Schwartz will live, because Weiss cannot exist without Schwartz, and you know it.
P.S. The poison is fast acting, as you know, run little kitty, run '
"Ran? Ken? What's wrong?" Omi asked, my eyes locked with those of Ken's and he uttered only one word.
"How?" I shrugged and dropped the letter onto the floor,
"I don't know, we'll work it out later, Yohji, stay here with Ken and stay on your guard. Aya go and get some more towels and bandages. Omi I'll need a syringe, if we haven't got one give me an empty one of your darts, which'll have to do. I've got to go down into the shop; I expect all of you to be back here by the time I am, go." I growled and left the room, running down the stairs as fast as I could to the front of the shop. I could hear the others running around above and was glad that Mamoe was practically deaf or else she would have woken up to a hell of a racket only to see that Ken had been shot which would probably have given her a heart attack.
I entered the shop and ran straight for the cash register, sure enough, just as the note had said behind the counter there was a small vile with a purple liquid inside that read 'antidote' on the front. Next to the vile there was a syringe with which I was going to inject the antidote into Ken's veins. I took the two objects and ran as fast as I could back up the stairs, one thought was constantly running through my head and that was. Could I really trust Schwartz? The answer was no but I didn't have another option did I? I could hear Ken's screams and quickened my pace,
"Ran! Hurry up! Ken's gone into shock!" I was in the room before Yohji had even finished his sentence; Omi and Aya were right behind me. Ken was thrashing around on the bed, his eyes closed, his body seemingly having a mind of his own. I ripped open the syringe packet and opened the vile. I quickly filled the needle with as much of the liquid that would fit and walked over to the bed, Ken's body was still thrashing and I ordered Yohji and Omi to hold his arms down. They did so and I sat on the edge of the bed.
"Shit, he's moving around too much" I growled, the question of whether Schwartz were lying or not was still going through my mind but I couldn't just sit back and watch the younger man die only to find out later that this liquid in my hand would have saved him. With a low growl I got onto the bed and sat on top of Ken's waist, so that I was ultimately straddling him. Omi forced the brunette's right arm onto the bed and straightened it out. Slowly I moved the needled to one of the veins in his arm and pushed the top down so that the antidote was forced into him.
His movements calmed almost immediately and I got off of him, Aya handed me a damp towel which I them used to clean the younger man's chest. His breathing was calm and even which suggested that he was getting over the affects of the poison. I sighed in relief and glanced around the room to see all of its occupants staring at me questioningly.
"Where did that come from? How did you know that it would work?" Yohji asked and stood from Ken's side. I stared at him and picked up the letter that I had dropped on the floor. Passing it to him and whispering one word or rather one name,
"Schwartz,"
"But, they're dead?" Omi insisted, I shook my head and ran a hand through my hair,
"No they're very much alive and they're back in Japan, this was a warning to us," I explained and motioned at Ken who I then proceeded to bandage.
"So it was them who informed Katsuya we were coming?" Omi asked,
"Most likely, remember they have a really nifty little group of people I mean Nagi can bring down an entire house without even moving his hands. Crawford can see the future before it happens, Schuldig's a goddamn telepath and will screw with your mind just for the fun of it and don't get me started on that Farfarello guy." Yohji snarled and sat down in a nearby chair before lighting a cigarette and taking a deep drag. I grabbed the box and the lighter from his hand and took one for myself, needing a little stress relief.
"Still why would they warn us? Why not just swing by and kill us all in our sleep? I mean we wouldn't have expected it, we thought they were dead, they had the perfect cover."
"They like to manipulate us, to play with us and watch us crumble at our own hands. Schwartz are Schwartz they probably would have left us alone if this new mission hadn't come about and our paths had stayed separate. They're interesting and dangerous they saw this coming, most likely had something to do with it. They wanted us to know it and they wanted us to know they were back. Now they're going to let us stew, maybe pop in every once in a while to check we're sure of their return but they won't make a move until the opportunity presents itself. I say we make sure that that doesn't happen and they don't get the chance to royally screw us over." I said, Omi and Yohji agreed, Aya had become surprisingly quiet,
"Schwartz are bastards I say we find them and kill them," The blonde chuckled and took another drag from his cigarette.
"Great idea Yohji, you said yourself Crawford can see the future, he'll see us coming a mile off. Truth time, if the ocean tower wouldn't have collapsed who would have won, us, four normal assassins? Or them, four bodyguards with paranormal powers?" I sighed and took a drag of my own cigarette. Blowing the smoke into the air and watching it dance on the cold night's breeze.
"You have a point there," Yohji sighed and ran a hand through his hair, Schwartz had us right where they wanted us and something in the back of my head was telling me they knew it.
"Ran, Ken's burning up, should I go get a towel and some cold water?" Aya asked, I smiled and nodded. She had always viewed Ken like a brother, infact she viewed each or Weiss as a brother. They had become the family we had lost and I for one never wanted to loose any of them.
/Least of all Ken right/
I shook the voice away and took another drag from my cigarette; I held the smoke in my mouth for a while before letting it go. I could hear small gasps and moans coming from the bed, the fear struck me again that the 'antidote' may have been nothing more than a placebo given to us by Schwartz to lure us into a false sense of security. A deep chuckling in the back of my mind told me that I was not alone in my head.
/I give you my word Ran that will make little Kenken right as rain, we have no interest in killing one so beautiful. Unless he gives us a reason that is? I'll leave you to your thoughts Ran or Aya or whatever you go by now. See ya soon ja/
I wanted to punch him for being in my head but I couldn't, I didn't even let onto the others that the infamous and definitely not dead Schuldig had just payed my mind a visit. No something told me it wouldn't be long before he talked to them himself, Aya then walked into the room with the bucket of cold water and towel. I sighed and stood from my seat, stumping out the cigarette in a nearby ashtray.
"It's late, you three should go to bed, I will take care of him tonight, I promise you I will not leave his side till he can protect himself," I explained, Omi, Yohji and Aya-chan nodded and left the room silently. Closing the door behind them. I took a deep inhalation of breath and perched on the edge of the bed. I brought the bucket of water closer and dipped the small hand towel into the water. I wringed the extra water out of the towel until only a little moisture was left.
"All this hassle you've caused me Hidaka Ken and yet I do not mind, if it had been anyone else would I have gone to all of this trouble to ensure their safety?" I asked as I knocked the strands of dark chocolate coloured hair away from his forehead and placed the towel onto the overheated skin. Yes he had caused me a lot of trouble, but I did not hate him, nor despise him and I knew that I would continue to care for him for as long as need be.
