Kanra had assumed that her meeting with the Awakusu-kai was going to go like normal but sadly they wouldn't even let her step in and see the man in charge. The young girl smirked calmly as she stood in front of the two tall bodyguards suited up in pure black. They almost looked like twins. They looked like the common bodyguard you would see in those action movies, the thought made Kanra snicker a little. Behind them was the large wooden doors of the Awakusu-kai estate. The whole estate was set up like an old fashioned Japanese house and although it was very beautiful, it was expensive looking. Then again that probably wasn't an issue was such a powerful family. Kanra had only seen it once when she visited and met Shiki for the first time. The young girl also loved how peaceful it was even though this house was located in the middle of the city. At the same time, the peacefulness chilled her in a way. There's probably a reason why it was so quiet around here. Ah, the power of the rich.

"So what's the issue here? Shiki won't see me because…?" Kanra finally spoke to break the silence. The gruff bodyguards didn't seem to react to Kanra's presence or words before the one on the right spoke, his voice equally as gruff.

"Shiki-san has his reasons, he has specifically requested us not to let you in. Now leave." Thin eyebrows furrowed at the cold words but she quickly wiped this look off her face and turned away.

"Fine, fine. Let that imbecile get information on his own. Waste of time…" The girl grumbled, now in a rather foul mood. It was best to leave the situation as it is now. Those bodyguards didn't seem like the type to not hit a girl. Kanra knew the reason why he wouldn't see her: Shiki probably didn't believe she was who she said she was. With her showing up, it was the equivalent of one of Izaya's sisters showing up instead of the actual informant himself. That probably upset Shiki. Well, from today's display, it obviously did upset the man. But eventually Shiki would need her assistance and call her. Hopefully. Kanra was now making way for the underground doctor's apartment since she had nothing else to do. She had her fun with Shizuo already and made up a game with him, but it still mystified her as to why he didn't chase after her. It almost made her want to stop and coax the blonde into following but that would only result in her being possibly pummeled or crushed by a vending machine. Then again, he did hesitate to hit her at first. It might have been the initial shock that stopped him and not the 7-foot man standing next to her. The thought of meeting the blonde again made Kanra giggle and get excited. This must be the rush Izaya gets whenever he met with the monstrous blonde. What a lifestyle to live with adrenaline pumping through your veins everyday knowing that a beast is right on your tail and just itching to kill you.

The young informant stopped in her tracks as a group of guys walked toward her with malicious sneers on their faces and bright yellow scarves. Kanra tried to continue walking but had to stop when the leader of this small group of friends stepped right in front of her. She looked up with a slight glare, trying to warn them to back off but it didn't bother them at all.

"Hey...are you related to that Izaya fella?" The leader asked as he glared back at Kanra. This man had a pretty goofy look to him, especially with his bright pink mohawk which was the only piece of hair on his head. Yeah he was the definite leader, they always seem to stick out. Kanra smiled sweetly up to the goofy looking man as she took a step back and fumbled in her coat pocket. Good, her knives were still there. It was a good thing that she decided to bring them. She assumed she was going to use them on Shizuo but it looked like there was going to be a turn of events today.

"And what if I am?"

"Dammitdammitdammit…." A certain blonde cursed to himself with a crinkled up cigarette in his mouth. He glared at the sidewalk as he walked, completely ignoring the blood dripping from his side and onto the cement. As if his day couldn't get any worse, they had a frightened customer as their last stop who pulled out a knife on his friend Tom so Shizuo intervened to protect him and got stabbed. This has happened before though and the wound didn't affect him. Hell he didn't even feel the pain of it. Shizuo pummeled the man within an inch of his life before Tom convinced him to stop and insisted he went to the hospital. Shizuo didn't think it was bad enough to go to a hospital (and the fact that he couldn't afford the medical fees), so he told Tom he would go to Shinra's to have himself patched up. Shizuo just honestly didn't want his friend to worry more about him. So that was where Shizuo was headed. Luckily he looked scary enough to other people that they would simply move out of the way as he passed by. I mean, who would help a man bleeding out from a wound walking angrily down a sidewalk?

Soon enough Shizuo reached the apartment building that belonged to his high school friend and decided to take the elevator up. Not that he felt weak from blood loss, which he didn't, he just didn't want to spend more time walking up those stairs. A poor lady was standing in the elevator as it dinged open and she simply stood there for a moment in shock. Shizuo grit his teeth before snapping at the lady.

"What are you staring at? Are you getting out or not!?" The woman squeaked and quickly scampered out of the elevator and past the menacing blonde. Shizuo stepped into the elevator and heaved a deep sigh. He finally looked down to the stab wound and saw there was a large, deep red stain in his bartender outfit. That was going to be impossible to get out, looks like another one he'll have to throw away. This made him grit his teeth again and come close to punching the elevator wall but the ding of his floor made him stop and take another breath as he stepped out. He wondered if he would ever be able to control his anger. As the blonde bartender reached the apartment door, he simply pushed his way in which caused the door to loudly creak and break off its hinges. For a moment he stood there and stared at it blankly before a bespectacled man in a white lab coat came around the corner and groaned loudly.

"Shizuo that's the fourth time!" He whined and briskly walked up to him.

"Ah, um...sorry." Shizuo said in an awkward manner before propping the broken door up against the wall.

"You know you could just knock." Shinra shot at the blonde as he looked at the door.

"Look I'll pay for it. Again...But I need some help." Shizuo lifted his arm to show his bloody side that had now also stained the under part of his sleeve. The blonde was expecting Shinra to simply roll his eyes and ask what happened but his high school friend seemed a bit nervous. Shinra smiled up at him before scratching his cheek.

"Maybe you could come back in a...few minutes?" Shizuo's brown eyes went wide before narrowing in anger and he bared his teeth in a growl. He already knew what was up.

"He's here, isn't he?" At this, the blonde pushed past Shinra and into the main living room. He began to growl that same familiar name he has said what seems like a million times before but instead, there was that same girl from earlier sitting there was a cloth held around her right hand. The young girl was expecting Shizuo to come in so she sat with a wide smirk ready to greet the blonde.

"Why we meet again."

There was no hesitation this time as Shizuo charged forward and knocked over the wooden table and he gripped Kanra's throat and held her against the wall.

"You!" Shinra immediately scampered out from the hallway and hopelessly called out to the angry blonde since it was all he could really do. Choking noises started to escape from the young girl as she gripped onto Shizuo's strong arm with both hands. The cloth that was being held around Kanra's fell which caguht the blonde's attention for a moment. It had blood on it, and he also noticed her knuckles were bruised and bloody. "What the hell happened to you?" He asked in a demanding way and slightly loosened his grip on her. Kanra smirked and started to laugh through her strained breaths.

"What? Are you worried about me?" This made Shizuo glare again and tighten his grip but his arm was suddenly pulled away by a wispy shadow that had grabbed him. The young girl fell to the ground coughing as Shizuo was restained back. None other than the black rider stepped into the room with hands on her hips. Shizuo kept struggling against the shadows for a moment, wanting to finish off the girl, but eventually he started to tire out and was eased back onto the couch.

"Thank you Celty…" Shinra murmured with a sigh as he stepped over to help Kanra off the ground. "You ok?" He asked gently.

"Never been better…" Kanra said weakly but managed to stand. As if he cared. Auburn eyes glared at Shizuo as Kanra was guided over to the opposite couch and sat down. A new cloth was given to Kanra with more peroxide dabbed on it, luckily it didn't all spill out since it was on the table Shizuo knocked over. The shadows returned to Celty as she began to type on her PDA then showed Shinra who was running around and getting more medical supplies to tend to Shizuo.

[I'm gone for five minutes and this is what I come home to?] A gentle laugh came from Shinra as he sat down next to the panting blonde with a box of medical tools.

"I'm sorry Celty, Shizuo just sort of barged in." A growl could be heard coming from Shizuo making Shinra stiffen up in fear.

"If that damn she-parasite wasn't here…" He huffed with his head laid back on the couch back. Kanra in return scoffed and turned her head away.

'I have just as every right as you to be here, idiot." Shinra felt as if his home was becoming a natural war zone. The doctor pulled out a pair of scissors to cut away the bloody fabric around the stab wound but Shizuo lifted his head and held his hand up. He then began to unbutton and take off his vest and shirt.

"Shinra...why is she here…?" The blonde grumbled as the doctor began to work on him and he laid his head back. Not even a flinch came from the blonde as the cotton swab covered in peroxide touched his skin. Celty returned to the room with some painkillers and a glass of water for the young informant. After swallowing these she spoke as she rubbed her sore neck.

"If you're really that curious, I just simply ran into some trouble on the way here. Nothing I couldn't handle." A mass of blonde hair shot up as Shizuo looked straight at her with a glare. But he wasn't exactly glaring at her.

"Who did that?" Suddenly, the room was more silent than it was before. Kanra's laughter erupted through the room to break the silence.

"Are you actually worried about me?" Kanra said in fits of laughter. This caused Shizuo's blood to boil as he attempted to get up.

"No I'm not! I'm just-!" The blonde stopped however seeing Celty standing behind her, in almost a protective way. It disgusted him. Shizuo grumbled as he sat back down and let Shinra continue to work on him. "Shinra did you know about her?" The blonde suddenly asked and looked down to the doctor who was busily stitching him up already. Before Shinra could answer, Kanra interrupted.

"Oh that's right, you caught me I suppose.

"Huh?" Shizuo said with a raised brow.

"I have to tell you something about Izaya."
