Chapter Nine

xXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXx

The next morning I woke with Daisuke poking my cheek gently. I growled softly and turned over. He chuckled at my attempt to escape him and continued poking me. "Alright, I'm up," I said groggily.

"Good, because its noon and you said you wanted to get an early start on finding out where Koji and his friends were," Daisuke said, a grin on his face at my appearance.

I sat up and stretched my arms high over my head. He watched me and I smirked as I quickly wrapped my arms around his neck and hugged him close. He chuckled and returned the hug. I held him close; afraid he'd be taken away again. He rubbed my back gently and whispered words of comfort into my ear. Kissing his cheek I let go and made my way to the shower, wanting to get a fresh start on the new day.

Once I was done getting dressed I walked out to find Daisuke perfecting his hair in the mirror. I chuckled softly and moved to wrap my arms around his back. "Love, you already look perfect," I smiled.

Daisuke blushed and pet my arms. "Are you hungry?"

I smiled and shook my head. "I'm going to take Krad to find out about Koji alright? You stay here with Takeshi alright?" I was way too worried to let him out of the house for a moment.

"I'm going with you," he said stubbornly.

"No," I said just as stubborn.

Daisuke sighed softly and said, "if I don't go then you don't get anything from me for the next three months. Not even a kiss."

I stared at him noting that he was being very serious. I sighed defeated and he grinned triumphantly. "Fine…but I expect a present tonight," I smirked.

Daisuke blushed and nodded.
"Alright let's go then."

Daisuke grinned happily and followed me taking my hand and following me down the stairs.

"Finally!" Takeshi said when he saw us coming down the stairs.

I smirked at his reaction and looked at Krad.

"He's going with us?" he asked when he saw Daisuke behind me. I nodded and Krad raised an eyebrow.

"I demanded to go," Daisuke smirked softly.

Takeshi began giggling softly and grinned at us his eyes roaming to Krad for a brief second. Krad ignored the look and turned to Daisuke.

"I trust you can keep yourself out of trouble during this little adventure?"

"I'll do my best, promise," Daisuke said grinning at me. I smiled softly at him and pet his hair.

"Let's go," I suggested, taking hold of Daisuke's hand protectively and kissing the back of it. Daisuke blushed, causing a grin to form on my lips.

We arrived in Milan. It was a long trip, Daisuke slept the entire way. I was happy; it gave me the much needed time to once again look through the information. I especially looked over the medical papers. Apparently my dear uncle had many run-ins with the police, leaving many medical reports, including the helpful fact that he'd broken his left leg and still experiences shots of pain when walking. My plan, hit him exactly in that spot. Hope he goes down in one hit, make sure Daisuke's not hurt and then capture Koji and turn him in.

The cool Milan air quickly woke Daisuke up from his sleepwalking state. I smiled and wrapped my arm around his waist, kissing his hair gently I whispered, "I'll keep you safe." I smiled against his hair and held him closer, feeling him wrap a shy arm around my waist.
Takeshi looked at us but quickly blushed and turned his gaze on Krad, blushing even more and finally resting his attention on the floor.

"I've the address and it looks to be in the richest part of town," Krad informed us all. I nodded and watched as Daisuke rubbed his eyes softly, still in the process of waking. "There will be a taxi waiting to take us to the address." He looked at me, his eyebrows furrowed slightly as if he was trying to tell me something.

I could guess what he was saying. Figure out a way to keep these two out of harm. I knew he was only worried about Takeshi…only adding Daisuke's safety to make me think even faster.

Before I knew it the cab had pulled up to the address we'd given, and my heart gave a painful tug. I hadn't been able to figure out a way to trick Daisuke and Takeshi to stay out of harm. I sighed gently and looked at Daisuke. "Please…please don't go in there Daisuke…I need to know you're safe. So, please stay here with Takeshi," I begged him softly.

Daisuke looked at me gently and shook his head, "I won't let you go in there without me."
Those words made my heart both flutter and fall. He knew he had won and he smiled apologetically and got out of the cab, joining Takeshi and Krad on the street. I sighed softly and paid the driver and slid out to.

Krad looked at me annoyed and disappointed that I couldn't convince Daisuke to stay. He knew it meant Takeshi wouldn't stay either.

"Alright, let's get that low life!" Takeshi exclaimed. Krad glared at him gently, like a lover would when the other did something dangerous.

"Takeshi-kun…you have to be quiet," he whispered softly, "the whole point of this is surprise."

Takeshi blushed and nodded muttering a soft sorry.

"Two of us will go in through the front the other two will go around back…alright? Just like we said before…" I whispered looking at Krad knowing he knew my plan, we'd used it against Dark many times. I grabbed Daisuke's hand softly. Krad nodded at me and took Takeshi's hand leading him stealthily around to the back. I kissed Daisuke's hand gently and looked at him.

"Promise me that when I tell you to run you will…no matter what tell me you'll run," I whispered to him desperately.

Daisuke stared at me and opened his mouth to protest but I stopped him.

"Please Daisuke…I need to know you'll be safe."

Daisuke stared at me for a moment then nodded. "I will.."

I smiled and kisses him gently. "Thank you," I whispered and then faced the building taking a small breath and began walking to it.

xXxXxXxXxXx Takeshi Vision xXxXxXxXxXxXx

I blushed at the way Krad held my hand. It was so gentle and protective...I could easily convince myself that it was love…but don't friends hold hands like this? The truth was that a very big part of me was telling me this was all in my imagination….but a small and strong part of me was telling me that I had it all right….that this was a loving gesture and that Krad cared about me.

"Takeshi-kun…I need you to stay close to me and to try to not get hurt alright?" Krad whispered looking back at me.

I smiled trying to hide my blush. "I'll do my best," I whispered and moved closer to him so I was close to his back. Krad smiled gently and turned and began picking the lock to the back door.

"If you hear a gunshot run ok," Krad whispered as he unlocked the door.

I nodded and followed him into the house.

All the lights were dimmed, Krad kept me close to him and looked around as if he wasn't even bothered by the lack of light. I clung to him, a little scared of what we might find. I heard the door shut quietly behind me as Krad led me forward into the pitch black house.

There was murmuring in the room in front of us and Krad held me close and whispered in my ear. "Remember what I told you…gunshots mean you run."

I shivered slightly from both the fear and excitement of having him so close and nodded. He smiled against my ear and turned to look at the room and walked to it calmly and slowly.

There was a knock at the door and my eyes widened in fear. Krad whispered my brother's name, and I instantly remembered the plan. Daisuke and Satoshi would distract them as Krad and I cornered them and then, with any luck, Satoshi would be able to get Koji and bring him to the station.

One of the guys in the room stood and moved to answer the door. He turned slightly and looked back, almost as if he knew we were there. My heart sped and I bit my lip to keep from crying out in fear. Reporters were not meant to handle this much stress!

The man smirked and turned to open the door. A quick glance around the room showed that there were three other men sitting lazily around the living room. None of them were Koji. I looked at Krad wondering if we should continue but he was frozen his eyes widened slightly in fear. I opened my mouth to whisper something to him and felt a sharp pain in my back and my eyes widened to the size of saucers.
I felt Krad turn quickly and I heard something crack sickeningly, like on horror movies when the victim's arm is torn off. I shivered at the noise and the pain that was coursing through me. I heard a thud behind me and then suddenly I was in the air being held like a bride by someone. There was a loud yell and I heard a door slam open and closed. I could hear people talking frantically but none of the words were making sense to me. I heard one more door slam and a car engine speeding and then everything went silent and black.

I held Daisuke close to me aand rubbed his back as I watched Takeshi in the hospital bed. The doctor said he was incredibly lucky the knife didn't kill him. Half an inch either way would've killed him. I looked at Krad gently, I'd never seen him so…distraught. He was kneeling next to the bed holding Takeshi's hand and shaking. His head was rested against his hand and he was whispering very softly as he shook, they looked like tremors running through his entire body.

Daisuke was crying into my chest and I pet his back gently as I did my best not to cry, knowing I had to be strong. Dark was here too, standing next to my dad and patting his shoulder gently, telling him Takeshi'd be fine.

Dad had come the second that we called him. He was sitting on the other side of the bed holding Takeshi's right hand and watching him fear plain on his face. Fear of losing his only biological son. He looked at me weakly and then looked back at Takeshi. A small part of me wondered if he wished it was me on that bed, but I put the thought aside.

It'd been 18 hours since Takeshi got hurt. We hadn't left his side for more than 5 minutes. The nurses had to bring us food, but Krad refused to eat. I was trying to convince him to have a small bite of a sandwich, knowing it'd do no good to have Takeshi wake up and see Krad faint from lack of nutrients. That's when I heard dad gasp softly. I looked at him quickly then followed his gaze to look at Takeshi.

He was slowly opening his eyes, moaning in pain softly. Almost as if he knew exactly where he was his eyes looked at Krad first and smiled weakly. Krad returned the weak smile and whispered, "how do you feel Takeshi-kun?"

Takeshi blushed like normal and whispered, "it hurts a little…to lay on my back." His voice was dry and I quickly handed Krad a bottle of water to give to him. Krad took it thankfully and put a straw in it and put his arm under Takeshi's head lifting him gently and put the straw in his mouth. Takeshi blushed brighter and drank slowly. Krad smiled and kissed his hair.
Dad smiled and waited till Takeshi was done drinking and whispered, "I'll get the nurse to move you so you're comfortable." He smiled and pet his hair then left the room to find a nurse.

Dark smirked and made up some excuse too and left. I looked at Daisuke and then back to the couple I knew was about to form. "Daisuke let's let them have some privacy ok?"
He smiled and nodded and lead me out of the room, closing the door behind him. "Let's go home," he smiled.

I grinned and nodded and lead him home, knowing he meant my house.

Krad looked at me as soon as everyone left the room and kissed me. I gasped and returned it quickly, a little shocked by how desperate it felt. He pulled away slowly and whispered, "I'm so sorry Takeshi-kun…I should've been able to protect you…I thought you were safe I didn't feel him behind us…I'm sorry."

I smiled weakly and shook my head. "It wasn't your fault, you did your best and it could've been a lot worse right?"

Krad nodded slowly and kissed me again quickly and cupped his hand around my cheek gently. "I can't lose you Takeshi-kun…"

I blushed and smiled at him. "You won't."

Krad smiled and pet my cheek lovingly. "Good," and with that he kissed me again.

We walked into the house and I smiled and held Daisuke close to me. He smiled and hugged me close. "Thank goodness he's alright," he whispered.

I smiled and nodded. "Let's celebrate?"

He blushed and nodded softly.

The truth was we were both seeing each other in that bed. I had seen Daisuke's blood on my shirt and heard Daisuke's moans of pain. I couldn't be more relieved that it wasn't Daisuke on that bed, not that I was happy my brother was there…but I just couldn't handle seeing Daisuke in that position.

I smirked and held him close kissing him deeply as I led him up the stairs. He smiled into the kiss and returned it wrapping his arms around my neck.

I opened the door to my bedroom and led him in closing it behind him and pushed him against the bed. I could feel his blush deepen and smirked slipping my tongue into his mouth as my hand ran under his shirt massaging his stomach gently.

He moaned softly into the kiss and ran his tongue against mine and I pressed my hips into his causing another moan to escape him as I pushed him gently down onto the bed. He smiled and rolled his tongue with mine and my hands worked quickly to get the shirt off him.

He smiled his hands moving into my hair and then back down my back making me shiver in utter pleasure as he pulled my shirt off too. Smiling I pulled away from his lips and moved to lick at his neck gently. He gasped softly as I began sucking it gently wanting to leave a mark on him. He whispered my name heatedly and massaged my back as I grinded into him gently earning another moan.

My hand moved to his chest massaging him gently as my hips continued to move against his. I smiled against his neck and worked my way down him moving to suck gently on his collarbone, knowing it was one of his favorite spots. His breath hitched and a low groan escaped him sending a shiver down my spine. His hands moved to my pants unbuttoning them and sliding them and my underwear off. I smirked against his skin and my hand quickly did the same to him.

My hand worked its way down pulling his last piece of clothing off and wrapping around his length gently and carefully, running my finger over his tip. Causing a moan louder than the others slipped through his lips and his back arched bringing his hips into the bed and his chest higher into the air. I smiled and licked at his chest gently and moved my way down him.

I smiled when I got to my destination, his hands in my hair now as I licked at his tip gently watching a shiver run through his body as he whispered my name. I smiled and closed my mouth around him rolling my tongue around his length and slowly began pumping my head.

He moaned loud enough to wake anyone in the house, and I moved faster wanting him to feel even more pleasure as my hand gently slid down to his entrance. My finger gently poked at it and I waited to gauge his reaction.

He was panting loudly his body starting to be covered in sweat as he whispered my name like a chant. I smiled around him and continued to bob my head as I slide one finger into him and matched the thrusts to my bobbing. He cried out in pleasure and I added a second finger, this time the moan was more pleading. He whispered my name as a beg and looked down at me. I smiled and licked at his tip one last time before moving to position myself, pushing one of Daisuke's knees up to his chest to make it easier.

He whispered my name and smiled at me nodding telling me he was ok. I could've paused this moment and been happy for the rest of my life. His face was so beautiful covered in a heavy and deep blush. I smiled at him lovingly and slid myself into him. His face contorted into pain and I paused letting him get used to it. He clung to me tightly and after a few moments his hold loosened and he moved his hips, telling me to continue.

I smiled and slid all the way into him and then slid out making a slow and steady rhythm. He moaned my name softly and clung to me panting. I smirked and grunted softly as I started going faster my free hand sliding down his chest to wrap around his length and pump him at the same speed. He cried out a moan and I went even faster, wanting him to feel the best he could. I panted feeling the pleasure course through me and whispered his name huskily.

Suddenly Daisuke cried out my name and released onto my hand. I smiled and with one last thrust released into him moaning his name.

I smiled as Krad held me close feeling like all the pain that was in me was vanishing. A part of me thought it was because of Krad that I was feeling so good, but my rational side said it was impossible.
"How do you feel Takeshi," Krad whispered to me after my father had left to go eat with Dark.

"A lot better…it's weird…I don't understand it," I said looking at him.

He smiled and kissed my forehead causing my face to heat up. "I'll explain one day," he whispered.

I smiled, knowing he really would, and also knowing that it meant Krad would stay around a while longer.
