Okay, I'm finally getting back to this one. Still not too sure what direction I'm headed with it, but am I ever? So hopefully I'll just type something out and have it be half decent. Enjoy!
CeTe: If Kanone runs, Kalelle will just shoot him. How ever will he get out of this one? Yep, Kalelle's the evil twin (there's always a good one and a bad one...though I'm not sure Kanone is exactly good...but he's so damn cute that no one cares!) Thanks for reviewing!
alpha2nd: Well, we don't want Kanone dead, though Kalelle dying wouldn't be too bad right about now...but he'll make it up to everyone in the end! Can anyone on that show take revenge lightly? Guess not...Thanks for reviewing!
Kanone glared at Kalelle, "So, you'd kill your own brother because someone told you to? You're quite the disgrace, Kalelle." Kanone was trying to act cool, but his brother did have a gun pointed at him; though Kanone always managed to pull it off and get away unharmed, this particular situation was amking him slightly uneasy.
"I'm going to kill you because I was ordered to, yes. But don't forget, Kanone, you attacked me as well." Kalelle countered, remembering the incident with Kousuke and his brother.
"I attacked you because you were going to kill one of my friends, not becasue anyone ordered me to. How can you just go through life being told what to do and never questioning the motives. Even if you knew something was wrong, you'd do it. That's no way to live, Kalelle."
The older one faltered (I mentioned that, didn't I? Kalelle is older by like a minute or something), "What does a traitor know about life choices?" He spat back, lowering his gun slightly, "You think that just because I work for him, Kanzaka's not my friend? Correct me if I'm wrong, but you tried to kill him!"
"I did no such thing. I knew Kanzaka would leave before it got serious enough to kill him. Besides, you tried to stab Kousuke, that's a bit different. And while I'm thinking of it, why in the world did you attack Rio?"
"She was in my way." Kalelle replied simply, "But I took care of it."
Kanone glared at him, "She has done nothing to you, your attacks are unjustified and you have to know what you're doing is wrong."
Kalelle looked around and then back to Kanone, "Of course I know it's wrong, but I don't have a choice." He whispered in a hushed voice, as if hiding this fact from someone.
Kanone glanced around as well, wondering what had suddenly made Kalelle so nervous, "If you know it's wrong, then why do it? Just leave, like I did."
"Do you think I haven't thought of that? If I could just leave then I would have, but they're threatening to kill me if I leave. You got off easy and they didn't see it coming, but now, because I'm your brother, I'm the prime suspect for bertaying them. The first sign of my deception and they won't hesitate to kill me."
Kanone was suspicious, he knew his brother was fond of lying, "Then why keep you around? If they were so paranoid about you betraying them, then why not kill you now and save them the trouble of worrying?"
"Because they can use me. I know you better than any of them and they will use that fact to their advantage, so they can set traps to your disadvantage."
"And why should I be convinced this isn't a trap? You just told me that they can use you to get to me. Why should I trust you when you basically just told me I couldn't?"
Kalelle sighed, "I knew you would suspect that. Kanone, I know I haven't always been honest with you, but you are my brother...I don't want to see you dead or hurt."
"Say I do believe you...what do you want me to do about it?" Kanone wanted to believe his brother more than anything. Despite all of the pain that Kalelle had put him through, he was his brother; Kanone could never forget all of the times that Kalelle stood up for him or helped him out.
"I want you to help me, hide me until we can make our next move." Kalelle seemed to be begging for Kanone's help.
This shocked Kanone, Kalelle was even more hard headed than he was (well, maybe not more hard headed, Kanone could be pretty stubborn), and he never asked for help. Kanone was wary, this was even more evidence to support his suspicions, "And you have a plan I suppose?"
Kalelle nodded, "I don't think they're tracking me right now."
Kanone got the message, but before he could respond, a low chuckle came from the shadows surrounding them, "Well, Kalelle, it seems you were mistaken." Kanzaka emerged from the shadows.
"Kanzaka, what...what are you doing here? I told you I could take care of this myself!" Kalelle shouted at him, gripping the gun in his hand even tighter and lowering its aim from Kanone to the floor.
"I told you to take care of your brother, but I expected some kind of deception from you, Kalelle." It wouldn't have taken too much to guess that Kalelle would decieve the Hunters; he was always looking for a better deal.
Kalelle glanced to see Kanone looking at him, still unsure if this was all scripted or not. Kalelle was being honest for once in his life, and of course no one would believe him. He suddenly sympathized with that little boy that had cried 'wolf' one too many times. How could he show Kanone he was serious? An idea ran through his mind. He raised his gun and pointed it at Kanzaka, "You should have done away with me when you had the chance, but I suppose you were too foolish and believed that I would kill my own brother for you."
Kanzaka hesitated; perhaps this hadn't been that well thought out. He had half hoped that Kalelle would see him and turn on Kanone, but that was a waste of energy. Of course Kanzaka had come prepared with his own gun, but he would never be able to get it out in time, Kalelle would have shot him long before he ever got the chance. Kanzaka was left to convince Kalelle with his words, something not easily done, "Kalelle, if you don't kill Kanone, what makes you so sure that he won't kill you? He has to know that you've attacked his friend, what makes you so certain that he won't want revenge?"
Kalelle was the one to think things over now, Kanzaka had a point, and as much as Kalelle wanted to trust Kanone, he wasn't sure that he could. Before he could think any longer on the subject, he heard a gunshot. He looked to the gun in his hand to see that it had not been fired. Then he looked to Kanzaka to see that he had his gun out, and it was smoking. Who had he shot? Had he missed? No, impossible, Kanzaka wouldn't miss. Kalelle looked over to his brother to see a slightly horrified look on his face. And then everything went black.
Ten minutes later, Kanone burst through his door, carrying Kalelle on his back, "That bastard Kanzaka, he'll pay for this. If I had only trusted Kalelle..." Kanone shook his head and called out for Eyes, "Are you home?" Kanone didn't know where else he would be and then remembered Rio at the hospital, that's probably where everyone was. That was probably where he should have been; why had he gone home instead of taking his brother to the hospital? Kanone didn't know, but he was here now. He laid Kalelle down on the couch and removed his jacket and shirt, focusing on his left shoulder where he had been shot, "I can't take care of this myself, I need to get him to the hospital." Kanone found a phone and dialed 911, telling the operator that his brother had been shot and he needed an ambulance. Hanging up the phone, he walked back over to his brother, who was still unconscious, "Just hang in there." Kanone whispered softly, "You'll be alright." Little did he know how far from the truth that really was.
Ew, I did not enjoy writing this chapter. I've lost all interest in this fic and I think I'm just going to stop writing it for a while. Maybe if I get an idea I will start it up, or if any of you have any suggestions, I'll use those. But as for now, I just really don't like it anymore...which is a shame because it started out good. Oh well, review please!
