Setting out to the rooftops Jou could feel his heart pound in his chest. It wasn't from the running, or the adrenaline…no. Seto Kaiba had just proclaimed his love, and now everything was perfect. If only he could capture this damned assassin. He lined himself up facing the Han Building. They'd just topped the share market, which meant that many people could be after their success. He stared carefully at the building analysing any route in or out that the killer could take. The building was large, but there was only the front entrance, or the roof, both of which, Jou had covered.

oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

Kaiba sat staring at the wall of Jounouchi Katsuya's apartment. Had he really just said that? His breath hitched in his throat. The more important question arised…was it true? His brows furrowed together, it was undeniable that the blond was attractive, and he had calmed down a lot since school. He was bearable. Almost likeable. But that wasn't it. It was that hatred that brought them close, that made them so strangely compatible. The competitive nature, the constant feud over whom was better, it made their relationship…work. It didn't make sense, but that didn't matter. He loved Jounouchi Katsuya and that's all that mattered.

He glanced over to the vcr clock. Jou had been gone 20 mins. He wasn't going to appear back anytime soon, so quickly, Kaiba jumped out of the window, scaled down the building and ran off to the streets. He didn't have time to collect a weapon, especially as he didn't know how long the blond would be. Han would have to go down by hand, and Kaiba already knew how he would do it. A blood choke. More specifically, the rear naked. All he would do, is hold it on for a minuet. Han would pass out in 6 seconds, his brain would swell with blood, and eventually, he would die. More importantly, it could be done from behind, which would stop any chances of the man finding out his killer.

He ran up to the building besides Han, and decided it best to take the emergency ladder to the top. He didn't know where his stalker friend was, and the roof would give him a better view. As he reached the top, he looked around and could see no one. Taking to the door, he was relieved to find himself alone. Suddenly, a horrible pain tore through his arm, making him physically sick. He touched his arm to feel a familiar wetness caress his fingers. Pulling them back to look, he noticed the blood dripping from them. Fuck. He wasn't alone. Quickly, he darted inside the building, slamming the door behind him.

He paled as his fingers felt numb and his arm weak. He touched his arm to find the bullet lodged, so luckily, there was no exit wound. Frowning, he pushed his thumb and finger into the back of his arm, pulling out the tiny pellet. He examined it quickly.

A sniper.

Fuck. That was never good. They were overly accurate and sneaky bastards, he knew he had to watch his back. He tore off him shirt, wrapping it tightly across his arm. So he was shirtless? Good. If Han saw him, he would only be more intimidated.

oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

Shit. Jou cursed mentally. He had aimed for the murderer's back, but missed completely when the man had moved and caught his arm. Never mind, he slapped his cheek, the shot obviously scared him, which would make him easier to catch. Pushing the sniper into the bag, he pulled out a small handgun. Close combat wasn't his forte, but he could manage. He jumped over the buildings to reach the roof of Han, before sliding in though the door he'd seen the assassin use. It wouldn't be long now…

He slid through the corridors, silently listening for movement that would give away the position of Han. A coughing noise tore through the silence, causing Jou to run through the hall to the end, where a door was left ajar. Taking deep breaths, he knew what awaited inside. The murderer, the victim, or what was left of him, and the finale of his pursuit against the killer…

oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

Hey

Only 1 chapter left! Just posting before work!

So we have the option of happy or sad! So I'll post the sad ending tomorrow or Saturday, and the happy one after. They'll be pretty much the same up to the last paragraph so you can choose which you prefer.

Right, so I saw Aang today. The next movies have potential but I think the script was poor and some of the acting, and they fucked up casting for later books. Oh well. I love it anyway. I'm such a fan girl.

Anyway,

Hope you like it

Please R&R

Much love

AB
