Okay, lets get this show on the road! After the reviewer responses of course

Reviewer Responses:

KousukeAsazuki: Hehheh, there may be many questions, but if I tell you all the answers now, that would spoil it! Hehheh, I'm glad you think my Kanone is good, its hard trying to keep them all in character. I have no idea where Kanone got his strength from, maybe it was practice from beating up all of the fans that Eyes had when he still lived with Eyes? And yep…things are going pretty roughly now, but if everything goes as planned it won't be…rough. I appreciate your reviews! huggles you

Freya kurenai: That's cheating, you reviewed after I revealed who it was XD not that it wasn't obvious. I'm so glad to have you review me once more, and here's the continuation.

Yuumei: Really? Confusing? I guess I am very good at that, sorry ; Yes, yes, if they were real characters and we happened to be stupid enough to approach Eyes, we would get beaten to a horrible bloody pulp. Poor us! Yep, Eyes'll be in this chapter. Thanks so much for the review, I hope you enjoy!

CeTe: Strong words, but I completely agree. I am making him really mean. But its cool, because Kanone's cool…not that I'm advocating that cool people can do whatever they want (though I think in reality they do). Yep, despite Ayumu's detective smarts, he couldn't figure out to stay away from Eyes, and now he's paying for it. And don't worry, he won't freeze.

Disclaimer: I, nor anyone else I know, own Spiral, but if you know someone who does, please contact me, because I would be interested in buying! Pocket lint is good currency, right?

On with the story!

Eyes' POV

I was preparing myself for Ayumu's and my date tonight. I may have not known what love is, but I believe that Ayumu is showing, slowly but surely, what it means to love and be loved. I don't hesitate in thinking that I love Ayumu. Saying it is a different matter. But its not important because I believe Ayumu knows.

I check the clock. Still 20 minutes before Ayumu gets to my penthouse. I decided that I might as well check to see if I have any mail before he arrives. I locked the door, closed it, and went downstairs to the front desk.

It was naïve of me to assume that there was a possibility that I wouldn't have mail. Of course there would be mail. FAN mail.

The employee at the front desk was used to this by now as I had been staying at the hotel for quite awhile. It was already neatly stacked and placed into a container for me to read at my discretion…or trash. Most likely the latter.

I took the elevator back into my room. The ride took quite awhile since I'm on the highest floor so I decided that I would humor some of the fangirls and…guys, and started to read some during my return.

I walked into my room, one arm holding the container full of fan letters and the other one letter that I had randomly chosen and was now skimming with my Eyes.

I finished it as I closed my door. It was like all the others; a girl squealing about how she loves me and how she hopes to meet me. This one was audacious enough to give me her phone number and address. I decided that I didn't want to deal with it anymore and threw the letter and all the rest in the recycling bin. Those letters should be put to good use for something.

I was on my way to my room again when I froze.

There was something amiss. And I couldn't quite put my finger on it.

Then it hit me.

I spun around and looked at the door. The door…it wasn't locked I was absolutely positive that I locked the door when I left. I always do because I need the privacy and if left unlocked, anyone could just barge in. However, I know that I did not unlock the door as I walked in because I was reading that letter, so that means…

"I know you're there, some out already." There's no point in beating around the bush, why not get right down to the point? And that point is that someone has trespassed.

I stood there, in the middle of the room, silent, unmoving, and waiting for the intruder to reveal themselves.

"Eyes, such a harsh tone, we're friends aren't we?" I heard the voice behind me and my eyes widened ever so slightly. That voice…!

I slowly turned around to meet a pair of green eyes.

"Kanone…" I whispered. I supposed I was in shock. It was a surprise though, because I thought he had left us for good.

"Eyes" He smiled at me. A true smile, with his eyes closed in upturned curves, and his head tilted slightly.

I felt strange. There was a slight flutter in my chest. And for some reason, I felt warmth. Curious. It was the same warmth I had felt before. The same warmth that I felt with "Ayumu…"

I breathed out the name so silently that it was even softer than a whisper, but it seemed that Kanone had heard it and for some reason his smile quickly faded and his face hardened. I was about to question him when I noticed his clothes.

"Kanone…you're covered in blood" I was blunt and said it with indifference in the way one would note the weather. But this was Kanone, and he knew me better than anyone, knew that my statement showed my concern.

And my assumption that Kanone understood was confirmed as he smiled again and said "Don't worry Eyes. I'm fine. Its not even my blood."

"Hunter…was it"

"No" That surprised me a bit, though I didn't show it. Kanone was not reckless and would not hurt anything except for a Hunter that threatened his life. So who's blood was it? I looked up with a questioning look in my eyes but Kanone disappeared from my field of view.

I then froze again as I was embraced from behind.

"Kanone…" I leaned back into the embrace. It was warm, like Ayumu. Ayumu…Ayumu? Where was he? From within the embrace, I turned my head to see the clock. He was late. Ayumu was never late. Then it hit me like ten Hunters firing, and hitting me at the same time.

Kanone's presence, the blood, the face that Kanone made when I mentioned Ayumu, and Ayumu's lateness.

"Kanone...where is Ayumu?" I felt the embrace tighten. Any tighter and it would have hurt. Kanone also rested his head on my shoulder and I could see from the corner of my eye that his lips were set in a thin line. I easily broke from the embrace and turned to face my mentor. "Kanone. Answer me."

He didn't say anything for a moment, just stared at me in a way that looked familiar. I ignored that curiosity in favor of listening to Kanone speak.

"I…took care of him"

Those words completely hit me in the face like ice cold water. And this time is actually showed. My eyes felt like they were going to pop out since they were open so wide. I couldn't even look at Kanone, so I looked down. I even staggered backwards a few paces.

"Eyes" I faintly heard him say, but it was so soft compared to the rush of blood that sounded in my ears. I heard ragged breathing and realized it was mine. It was so cold, it felt as if I was drowning, that I would collapse and never wake up. What? What is this?

I had felt it before, before, when Ayumu was…My eyes widened at my third realization for that day. I'm afraid…I'm afraid for Ayumu and that he will leave this world…leave me…

Upon this realization I launched on Kanone, grabbing his collar, ignoring the stench of blood which I know knew was Ayumu's waft to my nose.

"Where is he?" From my voice in which I questioned, no demanded, Kanone, it would seem like as was talking to any other Hunter. This seemed to pain him somewhat, but I didn't care. More likely than not, Ayumu was suffering far worse pain. I didn't understand Kanone's motivation or intentions for hurting Ayumu, but those questions could wait. I had to find Ayumu.

I didn't seem like he was going to answer, so I roughly shoved him out of my way and began to make my way over to the door. Without so much as a second glance to him. I didn't was to see or hear him right now.

An arm shot out and grabbed mine just as I reached the door. I didn't turn back. I didn't do anything. I didn't want that vile appendage that hurt Ayumu to touch me, but I also didn't want it to let go either. I didn't understand. Life was never simple, especially if one is a Blade Child.

"Alright. I'll take you to him." With these words I felt a sense of relief wash over me, though I still held the indifferent mask in front of Kanone. I gave him a brief nod and let him lead the way.

It took us a little while to get there, and I was becoming a little dubious about whether or not Kanone was actually leading me to the younger Narumi. But all thoughts like those ceased when he unlocked a storage room door in an alleyway to reveal a familiar lump lying on the floor.

"!" I rushed over to Ayumu and put his head on his lap. Kanone stood at the doorway as I checked my lover's vitals. I glanced at him once and noticed that he had a look of regret on his face. Kanone never regrets I immediately set that though aside as I felt Ayumu stir.

He emitted a soft groan and slowly opened his eyes, and smiled.

"Eyes…"

Ayumu POV

"Eyes…" I knew now that I was dying. An angel, in the form of my beautiful lover, had come to take me away from this world. I was happy. The last face I wanted to see before I died was Eyes', not Kanone's, not mine in from a reflection on a broken piece of glass, Eyes'.

"Ayumu, hold on." I detected concern in the voice. Why would an angel have concern and ask me to hold on? I expected comfort and a nudge to let go. Despite this inner debate, I obeyed, because I could never deny my Eyes anything, even if it was just an angel in disguise. I smiled back up at the beautiful visage before me. He gave a small smile back.

I tried to keep looking at that wonderful face, but it was hard. I was tired, cold, and losing a lot of blood, so I eventually closed my eyes. Before I feel into darkness of unconsciousness, I felt warmth enveloping me.

Eyes POV

I was worried. Ayumu felt cold; too cold. I quickly wrapped my trench coat around him and stood up with one of him arms slung over my shoulder. I had to get him to a hospital. I saw Kanone hesitate at the door for a moment before he went to the other side of Ayumu and flung that arm over his back.

I gave him a look of appreciation, though it was the basically the same face I showed everyone else, but Kanone could tell, he returned it with a look of apology and…sadness? I didn't question him as we began to walk.

Ayumu…please, don't leave me.

Alpha2nd: Good place to end. See? Kanone is getting better now. And Eyes may have seemed emotional here, but keep in mind that's only internally, on the outside he looks like he normally does unless stated otherwise. Hehheh, just trying to keep him in character, which is also why I don't make him talk so much. And we all know that Eyes barely has to do anything to get ready for a date, just a flick of the hair, put on shoes and jacket and he's done. He was doing the flick of the hair part when this chapter began.
