Chapter 9: Destinies That Remain
Izaya had taken all the bags into his room, along with a quiet and compliant Shizuo. The blonde remained in a ball, rocking rhythmically back and forth as he was a cradle. He seemed much calmer now, but still as easily stir crazy. Izaya felt another well of anger wash over him like fire, but he tried to ignore it, he needed to fuel his anger a different way. The black haired god paused and consented to resorting his anger for something else, he went to his keyboard and started writing angrily, his fingers slamming on the black and white keys in front of him as he checked up on the school and the surrounding are with a mix of interest and the still lingering anger. After an hour of the black haired god mindlessly tapping away, he heard a sound, a loud sound that made him look at Shizuo.
"It's all my fault...I'm sorry..." Shizuo cried lightly and even though Izaya knew it wasn't meant for him, he questioned it. "What is your fault Shizu-chan?" Izaya's voice giving away the true curiosity he had for it. The blonde momentarily stopped any sound and looked upwards towards Izaya slowly, fearfully, and with it came the beautiful honey eyes. The usually fierce anger color now a dull, soft, soothing effect as they looked at Izaya. There was a whole minute of silence, the beast as still as a mouse, and Izaya turning his chair to face Shizuo. "...Death." Shizuo said the word as though it was a person he knew very well, or rather 'something' he knew very well.
The black haired god paused, 'Themis, what is he thinking about right now?' The reply came vaguely and just as easily, 'Death.' Izaya's eyebrow twitched slightly at the sarcastic reply and asked more specifically, 'Like what is happening in his head right now?' The black god waited for a reply, staring into Shizuo's mesmerizing eyes, slightly wondering if Shizuo was conscious at all of what he was doing in this state. '...his thoughts are all jumbling together like a collage, but I see...blood, Shizuo-san in blood, crying loudly, then...there's laughing, he's changed the picture now to you in front of him.'
Izaya was not surprised by what he had heard, but he still wanted to know more, "Are you surrounded by it? Death, that is? Have you killed someone?" Shizuo's eyes widened fearfully and he turned back to where he was against the wall and curled up like he was fencing something away from him.
"Yes." Shizuo whispered as he shook slightly under the emotion he felt. Izaya felt anger swell in him again, but he just gritted his teeth as he spoke, "yes to what question, the first or the second?"
The blonde snapped his eyes over to the red eyed god and whispered something, and as the blonde did he smiled a little sadly, "Both."
There was a silence that followed the question and through it Izaya processed the answer. Shizuo asked something softly, "Do you like desserts?" and the god was suddenly baffled by the quick change in topics, but he answered evenly giving away no surprise, "Some, but most are pies that I like. Why?"
Shizuo said nothing, but soon commented, "No reason. I just wanted to know."
Izaya felt something snap in him again, anger rushed too fast for him to stop now as he shouted, "Why?! Why does it matter to you Beast!?"
In an instant the oozing red aura appeared once more and the blonde looked at him with curious blank looking darker coloured eyes and said, "Who cares."
Izaya gasped as he felt the room sort of ripple in a way that shook the ground, Shizuo curling up into a deeper ball as he moaned out, "...No one does...No one ever does...Not you or anyone else..."
A dark laughing appeared that made Izaya almost a little nervous as a crooked smile on Shizuo Heiwajima's face, his eyes completely blank and a smile that bordered on complete insanity, "No one will take my little Shizuo away~"
Izaya watched as his things within his room started to float and the black haired male asked a question with a cheeky smile, "Oh really, who owns Shizu-chan~? You? Is it you?"
Shizuo's monsterous red aura raged slightly spiking and a creepy small smile twitched on Shizuo's face as the being in Shizuo pushed up the glasses. The blonde turned and sat hugging one knee to him while the other dangled over the bed, while Izaya stood with a smile. "Me, I own him~"
"Do you have a name? Or maybe a message for Shizu-chan~ when he is normal again?" asked Izaya a bit gruesomely possessed by his curiosity. The thing inside Shizuo giggled with a dark undertone and slapped his head.
"Nope! My little baby knows I am here already! He is well aware of my...well, let's call it 'Me Time' , he's not happy about it. Well, actually he is terrified of me. ME! Can you believe that!?"The thing in Shizuo coughed down a chuckle as the red aura stayed a dark red, it was a shade or two darker than last time and then the thing continued, "Well, you see...My little baby knows me by his own little nickname! We used to play together all the time!"
Izaya was stumbling around the facts the thing had given to him, so Shizuo and this being shared the same body and are aware of each others existence. The black haired looked at Shizuo/whatever it was with a leveled stare as he asked the question, watching the reaction, "If you are not Shizu-chan~ What do I call you?"
The blonde haired man laughed which almost sounded voice edited to the God, it was made to be haunting, but all it did to him was make the thing even more strange looking. The way it laughed wasn't normal as it stretched its body strangely as if it was used to a different body or something, this fact was intriguing as the thing slowed the sound down and looked back at him with Shizuo's blank eyes, or rather their new dark color or almost a pitch black. "Well, you can call me what my Shizuo calls me since I have a feeling you and I are gonna get acquainted a little more. I am the one called Shadow."
Izaya's red eyes widened, earlier Shizuo had said the name before waking up in total terror, so the raven could guess that Shadow wasn't someone Shizuo liked...How very interesting. It made him curious to know what Shadow actually was, "Shadow hmmm~? So then Shadow-kun, are you a part of Shizu-chan then? Or perhaps another personality of his?"
The thing smiled a wicked smile, a small gesture that could be taken in many different ways, but Izaya felt the shudder effect ripple through his body and he heard Themis whisper into his ear, 'Izaya...this entity is pure malice...you need to get away from here...he's dangerous.' Izaya ignored the voice in his ear, his face not even hinting that there was anything more interesting than the thing in front of him, in fact, there wasn't. Unlike many people, who's first instinct would've been to run far away from Shadow, Izaya found himself being in awe of the entity and morbidly curious of it. The thing stared back at him and walked right up to him, Shadow's walk was lumbering and heavy sounding, each footstep seemed as if it was made in complete and utter silence, the sound echoing to intimidate him.
"You don't seem very scared of me boy, now why on earth are you not terrified if you know who and what I am?" The thing questioned with a comical tilt of its head. Izaya had to hold back a snicker, even Shadow gestured like Shizuo, a dog through and through.
"Ah," said Izaya as though he had just thought of something, "The answer is so very simple Shadow-kun." The raven smiled inwardly at the flinch from the monster, the familiarity of the greeting seemed to have annoyed the monster slightly, and maybe perhaps Shizuo was still an involuntary influence on Shadow. Izaya lowered his voice in a way only he knew how to do as he flipped open a knife and put it to his lip with a smirk then pointed at the blonde.
"Gods aren't afraid of Beasts, especially ones with big mouths like yours. I think I'd even prefer Shizu-chan over you at this point. Shizu-chan~! I am calling for you, can you hear me in your Beast friend? I am getting really pissed that you ran away! OI!" Izaya felt the anger rush faster again making him very touchy, his eyes glancing at the clock in an impatient manner. Shiki said in 6 hours it would wear off and he knew that Shizuo had a few minutes left. The raven felt his blood pump at insane rates, it felt hot and boiling, but he felt no outward heat, so this is what it meant to be blinded by rage. The beast laughed viciously and looked him dead in the eyes with a strange look.
"He won't come out, he refuses to come out right now! He is a little…how you say….preoccupied at the moment with something."Shadow replied and there was a malevolent shudder that ran through the God's spine. This entity Shadow was something very evil, and Izaya found his blood calming again. He cursed this stupid bond as he spoke, "How were you created? Are you a separate personality from childhood trauma or something, Shadow? You dodged the question earlier." The entity paused and seemed to look confused and then there was another strange smile as he sat down with a genuine smile. It only made Izaya feel strange to see the beast side of Shizuo smile so sweetly with dead eyes, Shadow seemed more than pleased to talk now.
"Well, you could say I am Shizuo's bad cop, like the movies. I was indeed created by trauma! It was a wonderful time, I remember it all so well. It was the first time I had been able to come out of the small place in my little Shizuo's head! Oh, the blood~! Oh how evil we became together! His poor little brother, so traumatized~ To see his father killed and then his mother was in the way, so I killed her too! We didn't kill him though~ Too bad, I really wanted to, but Shizuo probably would have killed himself on the spot if I did. There was blood and crying, oh the absolutely sweet pain that Shizuo felt when his mother died was simply so wonderful~!" Izaya felt his mind stop working for a second as he heard the words of the beast. Those words held so much weight and Izaya would be lying if he didn't say he was somewhat shocked.
"Are going to scream now? Are you going to run away from me and cry to yer mama and papa that you're roomin' with a killer? Especially a beast like me? I mean my little baby is just so gentle, must have gotten it from that damn mother of his, she was a human too! I think it was a good thing to kill them you know. They caused him so much pain that I couldn't take it anymore, it was rather annoying because he would cry to me about it. Such a sentimental baby he is~ but he's my baby~!" The beast cackled and swooned holding himself as though to conceal the ecstasy his voice held, but Izaya paid no attention to as he processed the information. Shizuo was half human and half beast, Shizuo, or rather, Shadow killed Shizuo's parents in front of a boy named Kasuka which was probably Shizuo's brother. Shizuo's brother, what happened to him?
"Where's Kasuka then?" Izaya asked out loud and Shadow acknowledged it. The blonde had paused his ongoing soliloquy and gave Izaya a dark look. "What?" asked Shadow, clearly not anticipating answering it, but Izaya pushed on, Themis yelling no to the raven in his head. "You didn't kill Kasuka, so where is he?" The blonde was silent for a moment then answered the question, "Dead." That was the only answer Izaya received and it made his blood boil again for some reason dammit! "How did he die! Oi! Answer me you damn protozoan!" Izaya yelled as the blonde situated himself on the floor, the blank eyes staring at the god started to wane till they closed only breathing out a few words that Izaya could hear, "We are too tired now..." That was the last words Izaya received as the items that had floated upwards started to lower back down to the ground again as the blonde breathed outwards calmly.
"Themis, what is he dreaming about now. Is he back to normal or what?" Izaya asked with an edge to his voice, the Beast inside of Shizuo officially was more annoying then the regular Shizuo. "I think he is stabilizing back to normal. He's calm and his thoughts are blank. I imagine this entity Shadow has a limit to how long he can remain in this world while possessing Shizuo...I also have another thought..." the thought god trailed off as if asking for permission, but Izaya answered it, "Is it that Shadow is what Shizuo would have been like if he was full Beast instead of half? I already gathered that much along with the fact of what you said a few days earlier about Shizuo not completely being Beast." He heard Themis hum in response and then heard, "What are you going to do about this Izaya?" It was a good question that Izaya was currently asking himself. Now that the blonde was asleep he could check on some things and get back to the question later.
"I am going to do what I always do, I am going to research Shizu-chan and see what I find on his history and what records they have on him! If all goes well it could become blackmail material at the very least," the raven smiled almost to the point where the Grinch would be on par with him and he heard Themis sigh in his thoughts. "Fine I will leave you be for now, but I would suggest telling your father at some point," the thought god said and now it was Izaya's time to sigh. There was a smile that appeared on his face as the raven then muttered, "You know you act like my babysitter Themy-chan~! You know every now and then I can play nice with the other kids~" There was a deadpan thought that came back and it made Izaya laugh, "You never play nice with anyone and you know it." The raven god laughed and looked out the window next to the computer, "That's not entirely true Themis because you see..."
"...I haven't ever had to play with all the cards in my dirty little hand to win."
Shizuo's P.O.V
"So my little Shizuo, do you hate me right now? You do don't you?"the voice asked me again, and it was on repeat, damn that Shadow of mine. Damn him! "SHUT UP!" I yelled, but it did no good because it kept talking and it only got louder. I didn't answer it's question though, because then it just asks more questions that only got worse and worse. I was done with it, just kill me already damn it! I pulled at the chains that were connected to some sort of object. I could never look and see it, but I knew it was strong enough to hold me in place. Shadow once told me that my power was useless here which was true enough from what I could see.
I wanted this thing to disappear forever, to never come back again. I wanted to be rid of the nagging voice in my head, the violent side that would never stop whispering those damn things in my ears everyday! Then there were days that I was stuck here, chained like an animal, like a monster...I hated these days more because he would never shut up about all the things he did when he came back. The room was red, I was standing in blood and it smelled of it too. The sky around me was a strange purple blue like the glasses I wore, I think it's strange. I wake up and another would pass and now I have to work with the damn flea in reality, things weren't looking good at all. Why even go on living at this point?
The thought had crossed Shizuo's mind, every time he would find people to live for but even then, he couldn't help that he hated humanity in general. They were violent and cruel to one another, they were just monsters in disguise in his opinion. Once again, the blonde felt his whole body surge with hotness, this was a familiar feeling that made him happy, because it meant he could go back to reality! There was a bright light and the blonde felt himself disappear from the space. He knew he would have to go see what his Shadow had done in his body, he steeled himself for the likely horrors up ahead.
The blonde woke to the sound of fast typing, computer keyboard if he had to guess, and sat up to see it was the damn flea typing away looking very serious at a computer screen, but the man seemed to be pissed about something. The raven seemed to have an aura around him that was visible, red and surging. Shizuo didn't really know what to do about that, but he remembered what Shiki had said earlier, something about when they used their powers an aura might appear. "Ah, so you're awake, glad you could you join the lives of the living or maybe I would have liked it better if you hadn't woken up at all," Izaya's sarcastic voice spoke and it sounded distorted to Shizuo though. What magic was flea playing, was he still sleeping or something because his head hurt like a bitch! "What the hell are you going red for scumbag? What are you doing to me?" Shizuo asked, his voice rasping, everything in the room looked blurry now, like a mirage or somethin'! What the hell was with the pangs of pain in his head?
"What are you talking about?" Izaya's voice sounded serious all of a sudden and the raven's distorted head seemed to whip to the side looking at his own aura then he spoke again, Shizuo holding his head now, "If your power is lifting objects high, then I wonder what mine is. So Shizu-chan, what am I doing to you then?" Shizuo vaguely saw a form sit on his haunches in front of him, but the image was getting fuzzier. "My head, it hurts...my vision is weird, like a mirage..." Anger was getting to Shizuo as he voice was biting to himself and he made a pained face. "Damn it! Why the hell am I the one who is getting hurt all the damn time! Ah Shit! Make it stop you damn flea!" The pain came ten fold and Shizuo swore his vision had dark spots from the pain, he heard the flea talk again. "As much as it would be fun to make you suffer on purpose, I don't know why my power is surging at this very moment so I can't stop it. It just would be easier to pass out Shizu-chan~."
The pain then started to subside a little so the blonde let out a ragged breath and just breathed, ignoring the headache he had. He opened his eyes to see the mirage effect wear off and he looked upward to see Izaya's aura fading, but then he felt fear as he remembered that Blue bonds had a maternal after affect. Would it be harmless like his singing had been earlier (which he still really hated to admit he had held the damn flea bag) or would it be more evil? "Oh no," Izaya muttered in obvious frustration and the man stood up, but the action was tense looking movements as he marched into the bathroom which puzzled the Beast. Shizuo was able to see now, but he thought he was hallucinating when the raven god came out with a goddamn hairbrush!
"Oh no! Get away from me with that," Shizuo yelled and stood up quickly as he tried to escape around the room. "Shizu-chan, just come over so we can both be done with it already. I need to brush your hair-" "-NOPE, NOT HAPPENING ASSHOLE, GO CRAWL SOMEWHERE AND DIE!" You see Shizuo had many secrets, one of them happened to be his hair. His hair was sensitive and he didn't want the flea to go ripping through it with a hairbrush! He evaded the raven many times around the room the god yelling at him to sit down and let it happen but Shizuo protested strongly! "No way in hell are you touching my hair! You're not going to rip my hair out! Not today!"the blonde yelled and Izaya looked pained, obviously running so much was becoming harder for the god to do, especially when he flew most places. "I won't, I promise Shizu-chan!" the god said and the blonde shook his head and said, "You are lying!" "I will tell you about who I met when you were passed out and tell you what he told me about you. Don't you want to know what Shadow-kun told me Shizu-chan~?"
There was an obvious effect on the blonde man as he completely stilled his run for a moment, Shizuo was making a choice and it was obviously a bad choice. He growled loudly and yelled, "Dammit!" before he paused to watch Izaya come at him with a brush in hand. He grumbled under his breath, "Where do you want me and don't even think about yanking that thing through my hair hard, ya got that?" Izaya was panting as he tried to catch his breath, "Just...sit down over there." The raven had pointed to the floor in front the bed and Shizuo situated himself on the floor in the spot. He heard Izaya sit on the bed behind him and Shizuo felt his spine sit straighter as he felt the cold touch from the god on his neck. "Damn your cold," Shizuo murmured, slightly twitching as the pale fingers worked on the hair.
"I am called cold hearted for a reason Shizu-chan. Point is, I know a lot of things about you from Shadow," the blonde stiffened at the name and the fingers stilled too for only a moment. "What did he tell you?" asked Shizuo and the raven above him chuckled. "I know that Shadow is a part of you and he seems to really like you," Shizuo made an angry sound and growled out, "That shitty Shadow of mine! I want to punch him in the face! He's always-OW!" The sound let out by Shizuo startled Izaya behind him as the blonde grabbed the hair that Izaya had only just put his brush in. "That hurt!" Shizuo gritted out and gave an angry glare to the raven behind him who looked amused. "My, so sensitive aren't we?" Izaya teased and Shizuo responded, "You bastard."
"Well in any case, he told me about some things and then he said he was tired and went back to sleep or something like that, but I wonder what caused my aura to go off like that. Oh how I do so wonder~" The blonde was concentrating on the brush going through his hair, so he didn't respond at all, he only was preoccupied with every time a hair felt like it was going to pull harshly on a knot. "Earth to protozoan, are still there Shizu-chan~? There wasn't much there to begin with in your brain though was there?" The Beast grit his teeth but did nothing to protest as he tensed when Izaya almost pulled a huge knot of hair out but softly did so. "You know Shizu-chan~," Izaya started, noting every twitch of the Beast as he spoke reminiscently, "We missed Cooking class today. Too bad, I was hoping to cook today, because we had our little fight at the start of class yesterday we couldn't." Shizuo grunted because he remembered it as well, he got a scar yesterday on his face because of Izaya, the first time he had ever been cut.
In the classroom there was only one other raven haired male and he heard him shouting for Heiwajima-san to stop fighting, and so the blonde stopped but not without glaring the teacher Simon Brezhnev warily. Shizuo looked back at the smaller raven boy with a ghost of a smile as he gently spoke with his cool lips, "My name's Shizuo, okay? Heiwajima sounds too formal for someone like m-" That was when Shizuo met Izaya's gaze, and for a moment everything went slow as time seemed to stop. Shizuo made that moment disappear as he clutched his fist and ran toward the god at a blinding speed that made Izaya analyze his information about Shizu-chan.
The blonde protozoan was light on his feet as made a run for Izaya almost catching up to him instantly, making Izaya's smile falter in its amused glint. 'Well well well~, he's fast for one of the beast group.' Izaya jumped back slightly as Shizuo swung him fists wildly in anger, wanting desperately to hit the narcissistic god with his powerful fists, but Izaya had other plans as he flawlessly dodged them by barely moving his head, but somehow the raven was in his space bubble and closing in fast. Shizuo's caramel eyes widened as the flicked out a knife and tried to stab Shizuo's face, the blonde moved his head, but not fast enough as he felt the small knife slice part of cheek gently almost barely touching. "NO FIGHTING!" Izaya and Shizuo's movements were stopped as Simon grabbed Izaya's armed hand and Shizuo blonde head with his giant hands in a grip that made sure they were not going anywhere.
"Orihara Izaya and Heiwajima Shizuo," Simon recited from the list again for who was present. "Here," they both gritted in unison, trying to pry free from the grip of the large man, but once again to no avail. "You both be peaceful in class, yes?" the teacher asked with his bright smile calming the other female students who were startled by the blonde and the raven's sudden attacks. Mikado stood in fascination as he saw them fight, but once again was flustered by it. Both Shizuo and Izaya were led to separate seats on each side of the room and they sat down. They were both so different from his hometown type of people. Mikado looked solely at Shizuo though, because the alien saw the red liquid flow from his cheek and immediately panicked at the sight of it.
The alien grabbed a paper towel from on of the large kitchen like table tops and got a dab of water on it, rushing straight to Shizuo's side in an instant. "Are you okay, Heiwajima-san? You're bleeding! Let me get that for you." Izaya watched as Mikado wiped away the blood on the protozoan's cheek with towel, and somehow that made him a little pissed. Not at the raven, but at Shizuo who pushed his purple shades to the bridge of his tan nose, and blushed slightly at the raven's mother like gesture. Izaya narrowed his red glowing eyes at the display before him, and smiled smugly as he saw them.
"So, Shizu-chan~, You can't even wipe off your own blood without assistance?" Izaya taunted with his usual wide smile. He wanted the blonde to get angry, to charge at him like a bull seeing red. It gave him an adrenaline rush like no other especially since his opponent was Shizu-chan. The red eyed god watched as the predatory glance of the blonde that met his own clash in the air like lightning. "IZAYA!" Shizuo shouted slowly with a gravely voice that made Izaya feel the adrenaline rush back in him like a rush of cold water, it made him tremble with excitement! 'His eyes!' Izaya thought as he saw them turning a cold heartless blue, 'YES! Those deadly looking eyes! They should only look at me! No one else can look at me and live except you! You are much too fun and unpredictable, but at the same time...'
Simon appeared in front of Shizuo and said, "We start class, Shizuo. Please, no fighting." Shizuo looked up angrily at Simon, making a furious face but slowly Shizuo realized the point that Simon made and settled down. Shizuo grumbled as Simon spoke to everyone in the class, "Hello, everyone in twos. Choose good friend so it peaceful, like two sushi together is harmony yes?.\" Basically he wanted them to pair up so Izaya stalked towards Shizuo with evil intent, but then suddenly Mikado appeared by Shizuo. "um mm..Heiwajima-san,"Mikado uttered softly and the beast turned to the alien, "Hmm..what is it?" "Well,...will you be my partner? I-I'm not very good at this, but I need to learn so...please?" Shizuo looked at Mikado and smiled, "Sure..., but," Shizuo continued blushing as Mikado's face lit up like a light bulb, "I am not going to help you if you mess up!"
Izaya watched the overly cute display in disgust and something else he couldn't describe, but the raven knew he didn't like how the little alien clinged to his new blonde toy like it was his, asking to be his baking partner when most of the girls here could probably cook/bake better than Shizu-chan. The god was so fixated on the two that he didn't notice that a dark haired woman was right next to him, "Orihara-san" a monotone voice beckoned, making him pull his lingering red gaze away from his subjects back to a dark haired woman.
"Yes?" Izaya asked slightly irate, mainly because the clingy raven hugged the blonde tightly in a sweet embrace. "I am Verona, I believe that you do not have a partner in this class, am I correct?" Izaya's calculating red eyes swiftly looked her over and she had enough sense to avoide his gaze. She was as tallish as he was, but a a hair taller with blonde hair that was swept back and ended near the end of her back that was curled slightly here and there. Her eyes were a light purple unlike the gentle golden like colour of Shizu-chan's brown eyes, hers were more demanding. "No, I don't actually, Would like to be my cooking partner Verona?" Izaya asked sarcastically knowing the answer the moment he laid his red glowing eyes on the woman.
"Yes, let's have a good year." Her pale face was stoic as she held her hand out to him to shake in agreement, but to which he replied, "Yes, I intend to have a very interesting year, but I will not shake your hand, after all we are in a sanitary space you know." Her eyebrows dipped in response to his reply and then he smiled as his red eyes wandered back over to his favorite beast, who was now looking at him. Their eyes met but they both lingered their gazes almost intertwined in a stare down Each knew what the other was thinking, but Izaya laughed jovially as Shizuo twitched at the unnerving sound. Shizuo blushed immediately after realizing he had been staring at the raven far too long for a simple glare.
Shizuo tutted at the fact he had been staring so long, and the other had to laugh at him for it. 'I really hate that guy! That flea is up to something! I just know it!' Shizuo pouted in his thoughts knowing that Izaya Orihara was bad news, very bad news. Izaya watched as Shizuo's face flushed a nice pink on his sun kissed tan skin that made Izaya stare at the way the pink blush reached the blonde's cute little ears through the silky blonde tresses. Izaya felt something stir in him, but he dismissed it as an upset stomach as he watched the clingy little Mikado Ryugamine return to Shizuo's side like a stray dog. The red eyed god spoke something softly under his breath, making Verona lean in to hear his words, "How odd...a little dog following a scary looking wolf. I wonder who is actually the wolf and who is actually a sheep hiding in wolf's clothing?"
The woman put down her book to look where Izaya was looking then turned back to her book, a thick heavy Russian accent filling his left ear as she spoke uncaring, "In my eyes both are sheep in wolf's clothing. Very weak." Izaya chuckled with a deranged smile as he glanced over at the woman beside him, blonde and pale, and very smart. "I love humans Verona, do you know why?" he asked and the woman responded without looking up from her book, oh yes she was interesting. "No, they are weak and mostly stupid. Strange to love moronic beings," the blonde said and Izaya smiled and sighed out, "No, you are wrong. Humans are interesting because they are unpredictable and I love them. Every single one of them, even if they don't love me at all, but..." Izaya droned off as he stared at the alien and the beast together,
"I really hate monsters, especially Beasts."
"I must have had that aura on a long time," Izaya murmured as he was brought out of his memories by his arm starting to ache, and he saw Shizuo getting less tense as the treatment went on but even at a certain point Shizuo's hair was starting to frizz and get tangled again. The blonde started to shake from the fear that Izaya was going to yank his hair brush through it! That was about the time when the raven felt his arm start to cease the strange movement, "Finally," he muttered. Not loud enough for Shizuo to hear though, because in truth, Izaya was enjoying Shizuo's reactions to his hair being touched.
He let go of the brush and touched the Beast's blonde hair, even though it was a fake color it felt natural and soft in his hands. He saw the way the blonde had tensed up at his ministrations, "W-what are you doing flea!" The stutter at the beginning ruined the whole intimidation thing he had been going for , but Izaya smiled and said, "Can't help it, the side effect is going on too long, but what can you do?" True, blaming it on the side effect was petty, but the raven knew it was a full proof excuse as his fingers dug themselves in the soft tresses. He noticed the blonde shaking a bit from it and it interested him as he gently rubbed the man's hair. There was an immediate twitch in the Beast's figure and then Izaya wondered about something. If Shizuo was technically a Beast type, would he have Beast type instincts?
In an instant, the god reached through the golden hairand scratched slightly behind the man's ears and got a soft whine from the powerful Shizuo Heiwajima. Both males stilled themselves, Izaya staring as the ears turned a cherry red, the wide smile on Izaya's face grew wide. "Shizu-ch-" "Shut up flea," Shizuo cut him off and the raven stopped himself from pushing the Beast further, if only for sake of preserving his nice room. "I wanted to say the effect just wore off," the god said and in an instant the blonde stood and walked to the restroom and slammed the door, but not hard enough to break it's mirror on the outside. The god sighed and looked back to his computer on it said a file named Shizuo Heiwajima in the file base for Rairabukuro along with a big red word that caught his fancy,
"Classified"
