Before I forget, I didn't mention what the songs were last chappy, so let's see...the first one was "Hanging By A Moment" from Lifehouse, and the second one was "Dirty Little Secret" by The All-American Rejects (awesome song, if you haven't heard it, go and find it!).I figured the latter song would fit in perfectly with what Eyes was doing at the time (even if you haven't heard the song, you can tell what it's about by the title). Anyway, I guess that's all. Enjoy!

"Kanone!" Eyes yelled, worriedly, as he ran over to his bleeding lover. Pulling out his cell phone, he dialed 911, "I need an ambulance at The Abyss." (I just pick the ebst anmes for hotels, don't I?) He informed the operator. He was told that there would be one there shortly, and then hung up the phone, turning his attention back to Kanone, "It's alright, you're going to be okay." He whispered, comfortingly.

Kanone smiled up at him, "I'll be fine." He agreed, "I don't think he did any major damage, it doesn't hurt that bad."

"That's good." Eyes commented, but a little voice in the back of his head, called logic, told him that was probably only because his boyfriend was going into shock. If he was, though, he was doing a very good job at hiding it because he appeared completely normal if you could look past the bloody hole in his stomach, "Maybe I underestimated Kanone." Eyes thought, "Maybe he really will be fine, and come out of this unfazed." It wouldn't suprise him, Kanone and Kalelle both seemed like very strong-willed and able boys. So, it would make sense that a stab wound wouldn't affect him as much as others. Still, Eyes couldn't help but worry about the bleeding boy, who had his head resting on the other's lap, "Kanone?" Eyes whispered.

Said boy opened his eyes to stare at the younger one, "Yes, what is it?"

Eyes ran his hand through the injured one's hair, "Do you think you can walk?" When Kanone looked at him questioningly, Eyes explained, "It might be best to wait downstairs for the ambulance, but if you don't think you can..."

"I'm fine." Kanone interrupted him, "I mean, I'm pretty sure I can walk." Eyes nodded, and slowly helped Kanone to his feet, then to the elevator. Once they were in the lobby, Eyes took Kanone to one of the couches there, not really caring if the manager got upset that they were getting blood all over his expensive furniture.

Turner, however, was angry for a completely different reason. Once he saw the two enter the lobby, he noticed immediately that they were both alive, "Looks like Connor failed to do his job...again." He muttered.

"What should we do about it?" Wallace asked, "They're pretty defenselses right now." He offered.

"You idiot!" Turner said in a hushed voice, "We can't attack them here. Right in the middle of the lobby, are you crazy? They've definitely called an ambulance by now, and what if the paramedics saw us attacking them? Or what if their friends came in and saw us? They have us outnumbered for sure." Turner sighed, "As for Connor...we may have to eliminate him if he proves to be a danger to us."

"E-Eliminate?" Wallace asked, stunned, "You mean...kill him? But, sir..."

"Dno't argue with me, Wallace." The older one snapped, "They now know that Connor is a Hunter. If they see him hanging around here too often, they'll start to suspect something. We have to keep them in the dark until we're ready to make our move."

Wallace just nodded in understanding, "Yes, sir."

Soon afterwards, Eyes heard the ambulance approaching. Looking around, he found it odd that there were no one at the desk in the lobby, but didn't put too much thought into it. The paramedics rushed in, stretcher in tow, and loaded Kanone onto it. As quick as they came, two of the three men that entered the lobby, left with Kanone. The one that stayed behind, pulled out a pen and a pad of paper, "What happened here?"

"He was stabbed." Eyes replied, bluntly. He didn't want the police anymore involved than need be; he wanted to take care of Connor on his own.

"And what is his name?" The officer asked, a bit impatiently.

Eyes glared at the man's lack of manners, "Kanone Hilbert." He said in the same tone that he recieved.

"Do you know who did it?" The officer moved on. Eyes simply shook his head; after all, Connor only ever gave Eyes his first name, and seeing as how he was a Hunter, he could have been lying about it. The other man wrote down something, "Any discription you can give me at all?"

"Green eyes, black hair." Eyes said, not wanting to give the officer too much of a lead.

Said man nodded, "And your name is?"

Eyes was a bit insulted that the pig didn't know who he was, "I suppose it takes a certain level of maturitry that this idiot will never achieve to appreciate my music." He thought (well, well, well, doesn't someone have a big head?), "Eyes Rutherford." He replied.

The man looked up for a second, then smiled, "So you are." He said, shaking his head in disbelief, "My daughter loves your music. I don't suppose you could do me a favor?" Eyes raised an eyebrow at the question, "My daughter's senior prom is coming up soon, and she doesn't have a date. I don't suppose you could..."

"No." Eyes put a stop to that quick enough, "I'm taken. That boy you took out of here was my boyfriend, and if you're done with these ridiculous and unneccessary questions, I'd like to go see him."

The man sighed, "I figured as much. Could I at least get an autograph for her?" Eyes glared at the request, but finally complied. The man smiled again, "Thank you so much, you have no idea how much this will mean to her." Eyes just stared at the man, letting him know he really didn't care, "Well, you can go see your boyfriend now, Mr. Rutherford, and I hope everything turns out okay for you two." Eyes nodded, but wondered what the officer had meant, why would things turn out okay for them?

On his way out the door, he ran into Kousuke, "Will you watch where you're going?" He asked, annoyed.

"Damn, Rutherford, way to appear out of thin air!" Kousuke shouted, suprised at not having seen the other boy pushing the door open.

"He didn't come out of thin air, idiot." Ryoko corrected him, "I saw him perfectly fine."

Kousuke sighed, not wanting to get into another fight with Ryoko. Even if it was a small one, he was tired of always arguing with her. Now, Rio spoke up, "Eyes, where's Kanone?"

Forgetting all anger and annoyance that was directed at Kousuke when his boyfriend's name was mentioned, Eyes looked to Rio, "He's in the hospital." He waited for the collective gasp, and the question of 'why' that Rio soon provided before contiuing, "Was Kanone with anyone at the club that any of you saw?"

Everyone hesiated, they had all seen Kanone, but wasn't sure exactly what Eyes was talking about. Kanone was definitely with someone, but each of them had seen him talking to a couple of other strangers as well. Ayumu decided to take the plunge, "Yeah, there was that one guy. He had long, black hair, and really green eyes. They were freaky green, too, he definitely wasn't normal."

"Very hot, though." Kalelle added to his boyfriend's description. Instead of being angry like most boyfriends would be, Ayumu only nodded in agreement.

Eyes nodded, "He was a Hunter." He stated, making everyone freeze.

"A Hunter?" Ryoko repeated, shocked. They had all been somewhat attracted to Connor, but he was a Hunter. It disturbed them all a little how easily they had let their guards down around this man, especially Kanone.

"How is it possible that they already know that we're here?" Rio asked, "We haven't been anywhere or done anything to draw attention to ourselves."

Eyes glanced back towards the hotel, and Kalelle saw this, "You think they're working for the hotel? Is it just a coincidence that it was the same hotel that we chose?"

Eyes shook his head, "There's no such thing as coincidences when we're dealing with Hunters. They must have known somehow. It was odd, I brought Kanone down to the lobby, and there just happened to be no one there."

"That just leaves the question of how many there are." Kousuke said, "I only saw the one guy at the desk when we were checking in, but I'm sure there's more than one staff member."

"And it's most likely that the manager or supervisor is a Hunter as well." Ayumu offered, "Having control of your own hotel can come in handy when you're trying to kill people."

Eyes nodded, but wasn't really paying attention to the deductions anymore. He was worried about Kanone, and he had already figured all of this out on his own. Kalelle noticed his lack of interest in the conversation, and spoke up, "We should go see how Kanone is doing." He suggested, earning a more enthusiastic nod from Eyes. Without another word, the group raced into the night, heading towards the hospital.

Thank the heavens for smart people like Eyes. I know this chappy is kind of short, but I was afraid that if I continued, I'd give too much away, and not have anything for the next chappy. Also, seeing as how I have another hour and a half until adult swim comes on, I can start on Trapped. It's just one big party! Oh, and need to know if you all want Rio to get a boyfriend or not. Your decision will influence the rest of the events in the fic, so choose wisely!
