Alright, this one was first last night...so it's last tonight! I think I actually have nothing to talk about, so onto the chapter!
alpha2nd: Please don't hate me, but I think I'm gonna go with CeTe's name. And don't worry, the bum won't get away with it, I'm actually going to make Kousuke reasonable...after he kicks this dude's ass. Thanks for reviewing!
CeTe: He has a brother now. Why? Becasue I want him to and I'm out of plot twists! I like the name Kalelle. It sounds like the right kind of name for this guy (if that makes any sense) and it's also sort of close to Kanone, which works because they're twins! Thanks for the name and for reviewing!
Kanone's brother chuckled, "Kanone, what's wrong? Is it too much to greet your brother? We haven't seen each other in so long."
"Kalelle." Kanone glared at his 'brother'. Sure they were biologically siblings, but Kanone had always hated the other's guts. Kalelle always did better than Kanone at everything he tried, and he made it seem so easy.
Kalelle chuckled, "Kanone, what are you doing with the Blade Children? Hasn't Kanzaka contacted you yet? You're supposed to take them out."
Kousuke had been silent until now when he realized that it had been Kalelle who had killed his mother, not Kanone, "You bastard!" Kousuke yelled before he knocked the startled Hunter to the ground.
The two wrestled on the ground before Kousuke somehow found himself pinned to the ground (okay...maybe he isn't going to kick anyone's ass.). Kalelle chuckled again, "Too easy." He turned to Kanone, "Let me show you what you're supposed to do with them." The evil twin said, grinning, and pulled a knife that he had hidden somewhere in his jacket. He raised the knife as he held a struggling Kousuke who was, despite his best efforts, staying pinned to the ground. Just as Kalelle was about to plunge the knife into Kousuke's back he fell limp onto the redhead.
Kousuke quickly pushed the now unconscious man off of him and stood to see Kanone throwing a fairly large piece of wood to the side, having no use for it now that it had served the purpose of knocking his brother out. Kousuke sighed, relieved, and looked at Kanone with a newfound repsect, "Thanks, Kanone."
The ex-Hunter just smiled, "Don't mention it."
Kousuke shook his head, "No, I'm serious. Especially after I didn't believe you...I'm sorry about that."
"It's okay, Kousuke. Even if he is my brother, he won't get away with trying to kill my friends. Besides, he's a Hunter; I'd have to face him sooner or later." Checking his watch Kanone sighed, "I've got to get home, Eyes will get worried. I told him I'd only be gone for a minute."
"Well I'm glad you caught up with me. If he had snuck up on me, I'd probably be dead by now."
Kanone nodded and then turned to leave and raised a hand in fairwell, "Goodnight, Kousuke. I'll see you tomorrow."
"See you, Kanone. Be careful, if he gets back to the other Hunters then they'll be after you."
Kanone thought about this as if he hadn't considered that, "I don't think so. If I know him, which I should, he'll want to take care of me personally. Nothing angers him more than a traitor." Without another word the two turned and went their seperate ways to get home.
Kanone entered the dark living room of his and Eyes' penthouse quietly. He removed his shoes and checked Eyes' bedroom just to make sure he was there, which he was. Satisfied that he would explain in the morning, Kanone headed off to his own bed, tired from the events of the past couple of days. Unfortunately, he made more noise than wanted and woke Eyes up, "Kanone?" The Blade Child asked, peeking into Kanone's room and seeing the other in only his boxers; he had been in the process of changing into his pajamas when he tripped over what he could have sworn was only air and knocked a lamp off his dresser. Clumsy as he was, he was just as lucky; the lamp had landed on its base and didn't break. It did, however, make much unwanted noise that drew the other man to his room to see Kanone half naked.
Kanone was about to grab whatever he could to cover himself up but then stopped, "What am I doing? Eyes is my boyfriend...right?" Kanone looked to Eyes for the answer to the unvoiced question.
Fortunately, Eyes had somehow heard the question and walked over to Kanone, leaning into him and softly kissing him. Kanone relaxed and wrapped his arms around Eyes' waist, pulling him closer. Eyes broke the kiss off and looked up to Kanone, "Where have you been?" He asked, only looking slightly worried, but he had been panicking inside.
"I ran into Kousuke on my way home." Eyes tensed up, wondering what had happened to take so long; Kousuke wasn't known for his small talk. Kanone smiled, "Nothing happened between us. I also ran into my brother while I was talking with Kousuke."
"Your brother?" Eyes asked, Kanone had never mentioned anything about his family before.
"My twin brother to be exact." Kanone informed him, "He's a Hunter as well, but very much dedicated to it. He tried to kill Kousuke. That idiot really will get himself killed one of these days."
"What do you mean by that?" Eyes asked, though he had a pretty good idea.
"Kousuke attacked Kalelle first. Though I can't say he didn't have a good reason. If someone killed my mother..."
"What?" Eyes asked, his attention focused on Kanone's every word, "Your brother, your twin brother, killed Kousuke's mother?" Eyes put two and two together, "That's why he was so upset today." Kanone nodded, glad that he had a smart boyfriend, then yawned. Eyes smirked, "Tired?"
Kanone nodded and kissed the pianist, "Goodnight." He got into his bed and then felt a body lay down beside him and wrap his arms around Kanone.
Eyes kissed Kanone's earlobe and then whispered into his ear, "Goodnight."
Hehehehe, I had to put a little fluff in there. Oh god, this one is short, too. I must just not be in a fic writing mood tonight. I ususally do better when I can go to sleep for a little bit after I get home from school, which I did not get today. I barely got enough time at home to write up all my fics, as short as the chapters were. Sorry for the shortness, hopefully next chapter will be better, review!
