Seto stood looking in the mirror. It was early morning and he hadn't slept again. For some reason the nights previous events had drained him. He was tired but his body refused to accept it. Anxious, he decided he'd take a walk. It wouldn't be the first time he'd done this after a murder, and he was sure as hell that it wouldn't be the last. He pulled on his purple coat, burying his hands in his pockets before leaving the mansion. He loved the air at night; it was so crisp in the softest of ways. It was light and breathable, a change from Domino in the day when smog hung over the city. He liked the lights at night. Their shocking glow against the black sky. It had been years since he had seen stars, the lights drowned them out, masking their glory.
He never noticed the assets of the city when he was working. He never had time to. He had to be precise, quick and accurate to make sure everything was done efficiently. His eyes gazed upward before a sudden thud and the feeling of hitting the pavement brought him crashing back down to reality. Blue eyes stared forward to look the attacker. His eyes widened as before him he saw a familiar face. Tanned hands clasping messy locks,
'Jounouchi?' blue eyes met a brown gaze,
'Kaiba?' Why was this so shocking for the blond? Surely he knew that the brunet still lived in Domino?
'Yes, it's me you stupid mutt.' The blond scampered to his feet. Kaiba noticed the army gear, and watched confused.
'You're out a bit late aren't ya, moneybags?' The CEO stood up,
'I could say the same thing about you…'
'Yeah well…I needed a walk.'
'Aren't you meant to be in Kansai training?'
'I have a few weeks off. How would you know anyway?'
'I know everything, mutt. Always have, always will.'
'So you know it's probably best a rich guy like yourself to stay indoors at night?' Puzzled the brunet neared the blond,
'Oh and why would that be?' Jou scratched his head. Was he allowed to tell Kaiba this? He felt a strange urge to protect the boy, though he wasn't sure why.
'Come with me.' Jou began walking off, Kaiba following him, though the brunet wasn't sure why. They arrived at an apartment block, and Seto continued following Jou into a specific room. The blond closed to the door behind the, gesturing for the brunet to take a seat.
'So, mutt, where are we?' Jou flicked the lights,
'My apartment. I wanna talk to you.'
'What about?' the blond sat down opposite Kaiba, who was taking in his surroundings, looking slightly impressed.
'I dunno how ta say this but someone is going around killing people.' Kaiba narrowed his eyes,
'They are?'
'Yeah. More specifically CEOs.'
'Why?'
'I don't know but from what I've heard, it's all happening at night, you're usually doing well in business, so I'm worried you'll be targeted.' Kaiba relaxed back into the chair. The blond thought he would be targeted? He was worried?
'Aww do you care mutt? Is the dog devoted to it's owner?'
'Shut up, Kaiba. As much as I hate you, I wouldn't want you dead. I'd have no one left to hate.' Kaiba stared into the brown eyes.
'So where did you hear this info?'
'The newspaper.'
'I didn't think it was released.'
'It's not. We get newspapers from a few different countries to keep on top of stuff. Canada posted it.'
'Oh I see.' Kaiba thought about the possibilities of that been true. 'But why not post it here, let it be a warning?'
'I don't know, maybe they didn't wanna freak people out?'
'Yeah, maybe.' Jou sat looking at the brunet, trying to figure out his expression, however it all led to nothing.
'Is that everything, Jounouchi?'
'Pretty much.'
'Ok. I'll leave now.' Katsuya watched as the CEO got up and left for the door, stealing a final glance over his shoulder. Yes, men in uniform were hot, especially Jou.
