Chapter six:
"Nothing you need to know." Mello grumbles kicking at the ground once before tapping his toes on the ground twice as he stares at them. He then slightly slams his foot back down onto the ground.
"Are you sure?" Near questions as he watches this but as Mello only slightly tries to play with the floor using his foot, he looks up to the others face. "You seem pretty worked up over all of this." He points out to the other who stops playing with the floor.
"Damn it Near I don't need your help!" Mello pushes past the smaller boy storming away.
Near doesn't do anything to stop the other as he just stumbles a little before turning to watch the blonde orphan head off. He can hear the others grumbling get further and further away from him. He brings a hand up to his hair taking a strand only to twirl it around his pointer finger. He does so almost as if thoughtfully still watching where Mello had gone despite the other having already left from sight. "I wonder happened to him or what has gotten into his mind." He wonders to himself and he stays there for a little longer before heading off on his own way.
Back with Mello…
The blonde orphan with the number two spot in the rankings continues storming along through the orphanage heading towards his room. "Damn it. I don't understand. What the fuck in the world is going on down there!? I can figure it out. Yeah I can fucking do it." He heads along going towards where the bedrooms and as he grumbles some more he passes by a corner… Not even noticing the figure hiding there slightly in the dark. "I mean it's gotta have some sort of purpose but I can't even think about what in the world it could be! Ugh! This is going to drive me crazy! I need answers!"
The figure is leaning against the corner and when Mello is far enough away said figure moves away from the wall. The figure heads off stuffing both hands into clothing pockets. "What could be happening right under our noses?"
Later…
One arrives to where the other is waiting.
The other, who is standing leaning against the wall arms and legs crossed, looks up then around to ensure that they are indeed completely alone here. The other, not seeing that anyone has followed them, pushes away from the wall uncrossing both legs and arms.
The two stand there facing each other with rather serious expressions on their faces.
"I didn't find anything." The one who had just arrived informs the other who is there too. "Well what about you?" The one questions with a rather hopeful tone. "Did you find anything?"
"Yeah I did actually. I found out about something that is really big news for us." The other informs the one who had been here first who is quietly listening to the other speak. "You're never going to believe it but turns out there is something hidden away in a secret room." As this is explained the one can be seen perking up a little upon hearing this news. "We just need to get to it and make sure that we are not caught."
"Shall we go right now?" The one suggests looking into the others eyes as he becomes a little thoughtful. "I mean we are running short on time." The one points out in which the other softly nods in agreement to that. "So we should begin our investigation into this thing, whatever it is, before it becomes too late." The one continues even as the only other person in that area brings a hand up to chin level with the two parts touching, in thought. "We might need to do extra work especially with observations so we should give ourselves a fair amount of time to do it."
The other nods lowering the raised hand back down. "Ah yes that would probably be a good idea."
And so with that the two head on their way to the location that they need to get to.
"I'm not entirely sure how to get in however I am sure of us. And that we will be able to find our way inside of there." The other speaks to the one before they enter the room as the one turns to look to the other.
The one nods in agreement also giving a confident small noise of agreement.
The two turn back to the task at hand and try to figure out how to get in without causing any suspicion. They try playing around with the wall until the other spots the brick that he remembers.
The other puts in the pattern that should be right and sure enough the door opens.
"Good job." The one congratulates to the other then they head inside hurrying down the stairs but pause crouching low upon hearing voices up ahead.
They stop at the bottom of the stairs only to peer inside of the room spotting two figures in there with their backs to them.
"This is great news. And everything here seems to be in perfect order as to be expected." One of those in the room speaks to the other with a rather pleased tone of voice.
"Why yes of course sir." The other in the room keeps her tone of voice happy and cheerful. Her upper body is slightly hunched as she watches the other. She has a rather big smile on her face as if she is absolutely pleased with herself.
One of the two who are trying to not get spotted gestures his head in the direction of some of the darkness in which the other one nods silently. The one leads the two of them carefully but quickly into the darkness almost doing a summersault like roll to get there without being spotted.
"Yes yes and no one will be able to stop us." The man in the main area of the room speaks nodding his head a little to the woman in the room. "I am very pleased with all of you."
"I am most certain that the rest will most definitely be very pleased to hear this." The woman responds with happiness and admiration upon hearing such kind praise coming from the man she clearly looks up to.
The two hidden in the darkness try to get as good of a look as possible at the machine then glance to each other a little worried at the sight of such a thing. They turn back to the other two in the room when one begins speaking once more.
"Now all we will have to do is make sure we are ready by the time that the date comes around."
"Why yes I can guarantee we'll be ready by then."
"Perfect."
The two head to leave causing the two that are hidden to be all that's left in the room. Once the older two close the door the younger two step out into view.
One rushes over to the machine and circles it looking at it a little closely while the other begins looking over the papers and blueprints. They both are very careful to not touch anything just in case.
"You should come look at this." One calls to the other causing the other to hurry over to where the one is looking at a blueprint.
"This machine is going to be used to steal something and store it within itself. But why is not made clear let alone what exactly it is." The other notes out loud looking over the blueprint.
"I think we should return with more proper equipment so we can properly report this finding to HQ." The one suggests looking up from the blueprint to the other who turns to meet the ones gaze only to nod.
So the two leave for now being cautious and careful finding the same pattern works for both sides of the door.
