It's only 7:15 and I'm already almost done updating my fics...maybe I'll actually get to read some other fics tonight...I always finish so late that I never get to read any other fics and if I don't have the author or story on my alert list, I usually don't even know about them for a while! Well, here's the next chappy, enjoy!

CeTe: When it comes to Kanone, I'd rather leave my mind in the gutter. It has been a while since I've let all hell loose in one of my fics, usually only a portion of hell is let loose, but perhaps I should let it all out in this fic. Well, I'll give it a try! Thanks for reviewing!

nothing importan: Thanks for the compliments, glad that you think I'm that good! I'll try to update this fic every day with my other ones. Thanks for reviewing!

alpha2nd: Of course they want him to kill them now...where would the fun be if they didn't? Poor Eyes, yes, but at least he won't be all mopey and depressed, he'll be pissed! Thanks for reviewing!

As Kanone walked out into the living room, he saw Eyes sitting in a chair, reading. This struck Kanone as odd, he never imagined Eyes reading even though he seemed, for lack of a better word, well-read. Kanone's heart skipped a beat as Eyes looked up from his book and for a moment thought that he might not be able to go through with his plan, "Focus." He told himself, "If I don't do this now it will cause problems for all of us later on. This is for the best."

"Good morning." Eyes said, not showing any sign of remembering last night.

Kanone sighed, relieved, the more of an ass Eyes was to him, the easier it would be to break his heart, "Good morning." He replied, "Did you sleep well?"

Eyes smirked, but nodded, "I suppose you could say that. And you?"

Kanone faltered; he realized what Eyes was doing, "Playing games with me are you?" Kanone thought, as much as he would like to have entertained Eyes, he didn't think it would be wise to lead him on, "Not so well, that kiss kept me up all night." Eyes smirked and Kanone smirked right back, hating what he was about to do, "I just couldn't lay still afterwards, I kept having to get up and brush my teeth, it was really horrible."

Eyes lost his smirk and glared, "What is that supposed to mean?"

"Exactly what I said, the kiss was horrible. I'd prefer it if we didn't do that again, alright?" With that Kanone spun around, not wanting to see the slightly hurt look on Eyes' face. He walked out to the kitchen and started to get things out to make himself breakfast. Eyes, however, had other plans. He followed Kanone and caught his wrist, spinning him around. Kanone spun around and gasped at how close Eyes was. But he had to keep the act up, "What?" He said, a bit coldly.

"How could you say that kiss was awful? You seemed to be enjoying it."

Kanone laughed, "Well that just goes to show you that you Blade Children really shouldn't be given any hope; you do such useless things with it." Kanone could tell he had hit a sore spot and he spun back around, reclaiming his wrist and deciding to skip breakfast, headed towards the door, coat in hand. Before he left, he turned back to the seething Blade Child, "And I didn't say the kiss was awful, I said it was horrible; awful would have been a compliment." With that he left the apartment.

Kanone stood outside the closed door, his eyes closed, "I really hope that did it." He thought, "I don't think that I can do that again." Telling Eyes off had taken up most of his energy. He hated to see that look on the other man's face. He kept telling himself it was for the best, but how could it be when it was hurting them both this much? Kanone reconsidered his plan, "Maybe it wasn't the best idea. I could still apologize...if he would listen to me. I could explain everything." This seemed like a good idea, he couldn't face Eyes again like that. Turning to open the door, Kanone took one final breath and walked back inside. Eyes had retaken his seat and started reading his book again. When he looked up to see Kanone he simply glared and ignored the other man. He was still angry, who wouldn't be, but he seemed to still be calm; that was good, Kanone really wasn't sure he wanted to see Eyes upset, "Eyes?" Kanone asked, earning him only another glare. Maybe he was angrier than Kanone first suspected, "Eyes...I would like to explain why I said all those things."

"Would you now? I would like an expanation as well, but I was under the impression that you didn't like lying. So if you don't like to lie, then I can only believe that you said those things because you meant them."

"I didn't mean them, though. I'm being honest."

"Well that would be a first. If you were lying before, what would make me think you were telling the truth now?"

"If I were lying now then why would I have even come back here?" Eyes hesitated, Kanone had a point. He wouldn't have come back just to tell Eyes that he meant everythign he said, "Just let me explain." Kanone pushed.

(A/N: And for once in any of my fics...everything is going to go smoothly... well, for now anyway.)

Eyes nodded and put his book down, looking to Kanone, "Alright then, why did you say all of those things if you didn't mean them?"

"I was...trying to get you angry at me." Kanone admitted.

"Why? Did you ever consider that I would kick you out and tell you I didn't want your help anymore?"

Kanone nodded, "I was planning on it." Eyes just looked at him, waiting for an explanation. Kanone sighed, "Eyes, before I start, promise me one thing."

"What?" Eyes asked, not promising anything yet.

"That you will listen to my entire explanation and that you will believe everything I tell you. I swear that I won't lie to you."

Eyes considered this and the nodded, "Alright."

Kanone sighed again, this time out of relief, "Eyes, first off I have to tell you...that I am a Hunter." Eyes glared at Kanone and shifted a little in his seat, but otherwise made no movements or sounds, "When I told you before that I wasn't, I had been temporarily relieved of my duties so that I wouldn't have to lie to you when you asked me about that. This morning I got a phone call from our leader telling me to carry out our plan."

Now Eyes spoke up, "Plan?"

Kanone nodded, "They told me to get close to you, close enough that you would all trust me, then they would contact me when I was to finish you off." Eyes seemed to process this information and simply continued to glare at Kanone, "Of course I accepted, when I first contacted you I had every intention of killing all of you. But...last night..." Kanone trailed off, "I know that you've noticed how close we've been getting. There was no acting required for that, I've really fallen for you, Eyes. So I decided that if I could make you angry enough to kick me out that I could contact them and tell them that I couldn't go through with the plan; that I didn't have enough time."

"Why didn't you?" Eyes asked, still wary of Kanone; he was a Hunter after all, but somewhere inside of him, Eyes always knew this. He knew that Kanone had lied to him when they first met, but he went with his instincts and perhaps it would still turn out for the best.

"I was going to, but when I saw that look on your face...I couldn't stand to think that I had hurt you, Eyes. Do you understand?"

Eyes nodded, he understood completely, "I believe you Kanone. I don't know why, but I do. However there's one thing I don't understand."

"What?" Kanone asked, hadn't he made everything clear?

"What good could come of telling me this? Even if I decide to believe you and not be angry, you still have the other Hunters to deal with. And the other Blade Children as well, do you think they will be as accepting of this as I am?"

"That's why I tried to come up with an alternative, but as you can see, that didn't turn out so well. I know how much trouble this will cause, but, honestly, I don't care. I love you, Eyes, and I'm willing to fight for that."

Eyes felt a rush of emotion when Kanone spoke these words and he nodded, letting the other know that he felt the same way, "So, what should our next move be?"

Okay, I'm gonna stop here cuz I'm getting tired. I think this chapter was really short, but next chapter Eyes and Kanone tell Kousuke, Rio, and Ryoko Kanone's little secret and they all form a plan to go after the Hunters (after much convincing of the three that Kanone isn't going to kill them). Review!
