Okay! Here is chapter 3! I hope my OOC charas and story doesn't bother you too much. Oh and sorry, this is messy and has disappointments and misspellings...
Shizuo was walking slowly down the stairs. He had chosen not to use the elevator, with Gero-ni he would, but alone, no freaking way. With his luck, he would only break it, and then there would be in the newspaper that someone had died in a elevator accident... He has never liked elevators anyway.
When Shizuo got to the ground floor's hall, he located the info, were was this man from before, to who Gero-ni had sign up herself. The guy gave her the key and she and Shizuo had left to upper floors, but as they left that time, Shizuo had felt unconfortable stare at his back. He knew that it was this man's.
When Shizuo approached the info, the man noticed him and turned his face to face Shizuo with sickeningly sweet smile. Shizuo would have wanted to vomit, or rather hit the man's face so hard that he wouldn't be able to smile like that, ever again. But he'll stand it... Maybe.
"Ah, was the lady from before happy with her room?" The man asked as he eyed Shizuo. Shizuo didn't care, though he felt unconfortable.
He'll have to make things clear that he can get back to Gero-ni and far away from this man as fast as the fastest sports car could, "Yes, she was. She has moved successfully to her room. And now I'll be going back-" Shizuo couldn't finish his line as the man rudely cut him off, "Say, you can't see beautiful man everyday..." The man's eyes wandered on Shizuo again, "You are waay~ too good-looking to be even a human. I'm not interested in men, but if it's you, I can do an exception. What do you say? Are you interested?"
Shizuo face went white. He could even feel his sweat drop. Oi... You gotta be kidding, though he knew this would somehow happen, but seriously? Did this guy even know who he was talking to... Shizuo's eyes spotted the ring on the man's left hand's ring finger. This guy... was a son of a bitch. He felt sorry for the man's wife to be married to such an asshole. He so wanted to hit this certain human's face to a new shape. Calm down... No violence, or you'll just trouble Gero-ni...
As he had himself calmed down, he still had a urge to irritate this man. He glanced the man evily, but changed it to a forced smile as he spoke, "Oh, maybe I would be, but you know... That ring on your finger looks nice. Where do you need me to seduce you? Isn't it fun enough to play your mind/blabber games with your 'forever yours' wife?" As this said, the man sweared as he had remembered his wedding ring on his finger too late.
Shizuo leaned little closer to the man's face. His eyes narrowed and his face darkened, "I hate cheaters."
You could even see how the man in front of Shizuo started to shiver like crazy. He apologized to Shizuo as bowing his head at the same time. Shizuo looked the man coldly, "Don't apologize to me, apologize to your wife..."
As the incident was finally over, Shizuo headed to the stairs, which he had used not so long ago. Damn it all... That had taken more time than he had originally planned. Thanks to that, Gero-ni has had more time to do whatever she was doing. She was so damn cunning.
He had danced as she had expected him to do.
CHATROOM
Gero-ni
Hello~! It's been a while since the last time I was here.
Kanra
Gero-ni~! Where have you been? Tanaka Taro has been so worried~
Tanaka Taro
E-eeh? °Д°" But I don't even know her!
Gero-ni
Don't worry Taro-kun. I know you~
Tanaka Taro
Ha- ha ha ha. You got me there. ^_^
Gero-ni
First thing about me, I lie only if there is no other option...
Tanaka Taro
Eh?
Gero-ni
Thee~! I'm just joking! ^ㅂ^
Kanra
You really don't change (⌒▽⌒)
Gero-ni
I do change! Oh... Forget that. I don't change anymore... I'm already an adult...
Tanaka Taro
Can I even call you an ADULT? O.O"
Kanra
You're confusing our poor friend.
Gero-ni
Hm? No, he is confusing me!
Tanaka Taro
How's that even possible? （゜Д゜）
Gero-ni
For first, you expect me to be normal, and for second... Well...Uh... You have weird name!
Tanaka Taro
. . . . . You made that final up, didn't you?
Gero-ni
. . . . . Nooo~ Why do you think that? ヽ(´ｰ｀ )ﾉ
Tanaka Taro
Lol. (￣ー￣)
Kanra
But you really have a weird name...
Tanaka Taro
Ugh... ^_^"
Gero-ni
You have weird name too, Kanra~! ^3^
Tanaka Taro
And you too, Gero-ni. Everybody seems to have these days likely.
Gero-ni
Yeah~! Oh Kanra, by the way... How are ya doing?
Kanra
. . . . .
[Private mode] Kanra
Heh. I'm not telling, you could be some kind of a secret agent! I'll surrender!
[Private mode] Gero-ni
Why~? We have chatted before, Kanra-kun. Oh and, hands up! Agent 007 saves the day!~ ^o^/
[Private mode] Kanra
I have never trusted anyone seriously, even so called "friends". And you are not an exception~!
[Private mode] Gero-ni
HOW MEAN! Not like I really cared about your other "friends" but I am trustworthy friend! And I know some of those "friends" you have, are as worthy~
[Private mode] Kanra
There is no such a thing. No one is worth for that kind of a title, or what ever award title you are making...
[Private mode] Gero-ni
Ah~ how fun it would be to win an oscar of that . . .
[Private mode] Kanra
. . . . Still, it is no.
[Private mode] Gero-ni
Damn, you're difficult one...
[Private mode] Kanra
I'm just the lovely me~!
[Private mode] Gero-ni
My lovely friend~! If you would like, I could introduce my best friend to you! He is nice. In many ways XD if you know what I mean~ Then you two could chat together, and then you'll just fall in l~ower places! YEAH! In lower places you fall! Haha! A-anyway. He's my best friend for many reasons! For example, he's not like other people. I could ask him to come as new one to the chat. Send a message if you are interested. Oh and tell also when!
[Private mode] Kanra
Eh?
[Private mode] Gero-ni
I'll be going, my friend is waiting for me, but I say this, if you don't trust others, and only make them dance with your tune, I'll say that there is so few of those who can accept it. And those few are the "true friends" you look for. They'll stand by your side, when ever you need it. Valhalla can't make your miseries disappear. You want something exciting, I know, and that makes you special. You'll have to choose between two (for you) difficult choices in future, but I believe you'll pick the right one. See you, Izaya-kun!
[Private mode] Kanra
!
Gero-ni
See you again Tanaka Taro! I promise we'll chat more next time! I'll be off then~ ^‿‿^ /
Gero-ni has left the chat.
Tanaka Taro
...What were you two talking about, Kanra?
Kanra
Nothing important~! Anyway, I'll be going too, thank you for the company~
Tanaka Taro
Eh? Orihara-san, wait!
Kanra has left the chat.
Tanaka Taro
Great... I failed. Now what will I do?...
Tanaka Taro has left the chat.
No one is in the chatroom right now.
No one is in the chatroom right now.

Gero-ni shut her phone and slipped it in to her pocket just before Shizuo appeared in front of her. Scary~ Gero-ni saw from Shizuo's face that he had his doubts of what she had been doing, while he was gone, and there seemed to be little something else too... It seems that he "loved" her idea to go to have a nice talk with that info man in the lobby. She had noticed that the man was interested in Shizuo somehow back there. Too bad for Shizuo, but she needed more time.
"Shizuo~! Did you have a nice chat with that man downstairs?" Gero-ni asked as she winked her eye for Shizuo.
Of course, Shizuo didn't take it so lightly, "Oh~? Of course! Like in hell I did! You really knew that the info man had set his freaking eyes on me, and you knew that he would slow me down that you could make in time to finish with your-... Whatever-you-are-doing! Gero-ni! What the hell were you thinking? And could you please, tell me what you were doing?"
Gero-ni stayed silent.
". . . . ."
". . . . . ."
After a long silent Shizuo sighed as giving up, "Fine. Don't tell me, but I tell you that I don't like it when you do this kind of things without my knowledge."
Gero-ni felt relieved. She knew Shizuo was a nice person. He always let their arguments just slip like that. He never forced her to tell anything to him. That is something she liked in him. He always has been on her side. And now, it is her turn. She would protect Shizuo, cheer him and such, she had given her word for it. Not even that "one shitty guy" could harm him.
"Gero-ni? You still in this world?" Shizuo asked her, which made her snap out of her thoughts. She lifted her eyes to Shizuo's, "Yes I am!"
Shizuo smiled at her as he hit her back with his hand friendly, "Good! Then let's go." As this said, Shizuo left the room. Gero-ni took a red colored handbag which he had set ready before and followed Shizuo out of the hotel.
When they got out of the hotel, Shizuo suggested that he could show her places and even introduce to the other people, like to "Shizuo's friends" if there was a chance.
She has heard something of his friends when she and Shizuo had been in contact, but she has never met face to face them, only Shinra was an exception. But it's a other story that she has seen the others before. Her job makes her pretty much kind-a-like-stalker... OR you could just say that spying and getting information is so familiar to her because of her everyday job.
It would be a lie to say that she hadn't been watching Shizuo's back these whole thirteen years. What? This guy makes anybody concerned. It's not easy to know Shizuo fully. There are many things that his friends don't know. Shizuo has his secrets. And she can say, that there is some things that she too, doesn't know about Shizuo, when she thought about it.
Even though she "stalks" her lovely cousin, it's doesn't mean that it would have been easy to do such a thing from far away. And she knows that Shizuo can handle himself... Somehow. So she doesn't need to spy him so perfectly. It's not fun to know all, anyway.
But if she now would get to the point and think a plan, 'How to you get Shizuo sign up to the chatroom and make him chit-chat with Izaya?'. Maybe she doesn't need such a plan when she could just ask. Could it be so simple?
When Gero-ni tried to make the right words in her mind, Shizuo interrupted her flow of thoughts as he stopped walking.
Gero-ni stopped too and looked at Shizuo, who looked like thinking something. Gero-ni turned her gaze to forward, right to the certain building where Shizuo seemed to stare, like there was something abnormal. Oh, but hey, isn't that Russian Sushi? Maybe she'll order something from there later on...
Shizuo started to move again, "So Simon will be the first one you meet, lucky you..." Shizuo smirked at her and led her forward.
When they were close enough to see people better from the crowd, she noticed very tall person right in front of her. Taller that Shizuo... She has seen him from screen when she was 'studying' Shizuo's friends, and she can say that there he looked more shorter. But there is many kind of people in the world. So this must be...
"Yo, Simon!" Shizuo started and raised his hand to greet Simon.
"Aa, Shizuo! Nice to see you! Came to eat sushi? Sushi good, try it!" Simon answered to Shizuo, who waved his hand as no, "Not now at least. I'm showing Gero-ni around." He pointed his hand toward her.
Simon blinked his eyes as he looked Gero-ni. Gero-ni politely bowed for Simon and introduced herself for the man, "Nice to meet you! I'm Gero-ni and you must be Simon Brezhnev. I have heard a lot about you."
Simon only narrowed little his eyes, but only that Gero-ni could noticed. Her smile dropped a little.
At the same time, an old lady asked from Shizuo some help. She didn't hear what, she had to be aware because of Simon, who kept glaring Gero-ni in the eyes. If stare could kill, she would be lying on the dirty ground already.
People passed them and Shizuo went with the old lady somewhere, "I'll be right back" he only said.
When Shizuo was out from the sight, Simon finally spoke, "You are a fox, cunning and bad one, maybe even worse one than Izaya. Dangerous." He started to speak in Russian, but thank you god, she understands it a little. Simon continued," Why don't you use your real name? Does it tell your story too easily? I can see that you are a troublemaker."
Gero-ni's sweat dropped. This man, with bad japanese, but with good Russian, can tell all that by just looking at her? Wooow~ Gero-ni corrected her posture and answered to Simon, "Say, you really are good! I'm impressed! As answering to your questions, I use 'Gero-ni', because I really don't want people to know me! As you guessed. And because I am honored to carry it. But you know, I'm not too stupid that I would cross the line. Maybe I am dangerous, but I don't have intent to be something like that. Not danger for you then. And about the Izaya thing... I don't believe that I'm so much worse than Izaya. I have my own plans. But I assure you that it's only something good! It will make, uh or maybe, Ikebukuro little more peaceful... Shizuo will like it! ...Afterwards."
Simon only nodded little, but his face was still deadly serious. Gero-ni smiled.
"You want sushi, Gero-ni? Sushi good!", Simon said suddenly in Japanese as the reason could be called 'Shizuo is back'. Gero-ni only shrugged her shoulders as she said, "Maybe later. Now we will continue our journey".
When Shizuo got to them, in the same time Gero-ni captured his left arm and draw with her along.
Shizuo was little confused. After all, he just got back, but more confused he seemed to be when Simon waved his hand at them and said in Russian, "I keep my eye on you", as he smiled for them, but for Gero-ni it was a warning. Shizuo doesn't understand Russian, and that was only a good thing at the moment.
Gero-ni waved back to Simon and responded, "I like you too! Laters!" Damn it... She could only believe that if there was a murder, and the murderer was unknown, Simon would maybe doubt her first.
Izaya was angry. Has he been too careless that he has let someone, who he doesn't even know, know him? That doesn't sound right. He was the one who should know all. How? She even knew about Valhalla!
Thinking, Izaya spinned on his chair. He was alone this time in the room. Namie had left somewhere and that was a good thing. Everything was so wrong at the time. And like hell, he wouldn't let her laugh at him as like he has failed in everything. There is many alternatives, why this "Gero-ni" knows his identity. Like, she could have heard it from someone! Yeah, that must be it! But, from who?
Izaya stood up from his chair and looked down from the window. He watched as the people walked on the street and cars came and went. Some in chat knew that he is Kanra. Like Ryuugamine. But everybody he could thing of didn't seem to be people, who would tell to any stranger that he was Kanra... He knew everyone. But of course, his sisters could be one possibility... Maybe he should keep his eyes open now for this Gero-ni and all. She knew who he was, but she doens't seem to be harmful. What would she even do to him?
Izaya turned over and went to get his coat. Maybe fresh air would do good for him.
Outside in Ikebukuro, Izaya walked in his thoughts. He had met Gero-ni in the chat almost same time, when Ryuugamine called the first Dollar's meeting. He remembers that time. All the ringtones, all the people who stared Namie. Oh, how he would have wanted to laugh at her face in front of her... That was the time when Ryuugamine realized that Izaya was same person as Kanra...
But Gero-ni just appeared from nowhere. He failed to get information of her, even when he tried to ask directly from her, she didn't tell much. But she was nice to him in a way. When you think about it, he likes Gero-ni. There was something in her that reminds him of himself.
Izaya stopped and turned his face to right. There seemed to be Kadota and his company near the otaku duo's favorite shop. They often went there and bought some anime and manga. Can he even say some? They always left the shop with like ten-twenty books in their hands. There are so many abnormal people in this city... Izaya started to walk again and left Kadota with his friends behind.
He realized that when he thought about his "friends", he noticed that he was getting more and more interested in Gero-ni's so called best friend. Who he was? What kind of person he was? He has chatted with Gero-ni many times, and he knows that she won't hang out with people, who are pretty much like a shit. But why was she hanging with him then?
Still, to call someone her best friend, would be pretty interesting one, although he can image that he will get only disappointed in the person. Though, she mentioned that he is not like other people... Should he meet him?... Yeah, he should. More information could be obtained, if he discovers this person's identity, he could maybe get Gero-ni's too that way.
"Send a message if you are interested!"
When Izaya took his phone from his coat's pocket and was about to text a message, he noticed Shizuo, who was five meters away from him. Izaya stopped at that second and hide behind the nearest building.
When he was sure that Shizuo hadn't seen him he tried to get closer, as close that he was about two meters away from Shizuo. There was no people for some reason. Only he, Shizuo and some woman... Huh? Izaya tried to see the woman, who was standing in front of Shizuo.
Shizuo had crossed his arms and stared the woman. For his luck, Shizuo was standing his back toward him. Who the hell was that woman? What did he want from Shizuo? The woman, with black long curly hair, was kind of pretty and she had interesting looking clothes, like little antique, but the thing what disturbed him, was that the woman was taller than Shizuo! Not as tall as Simon, but still... It's not like he didn't like tall ones, but here has been a few tall women that he has seen, but there was this thing that this one had very weird aura around her... And it was kinda unusual that Shizuo talked with taller female.
Izaya tried to hear what they were talking about.
He heard Shizuo saying with angry tone, "The hell I care about what you people think! I do as I like!"
The woman looked Shizuo with displeased gaze as she answered to Shizuo with a angry voice, "We only think what is best for you! You are to be the chosen one's as we chose it to be." Shizuo looked the woman furiously as he said his own opinion, "Your chosen one is shit! I really don't care to become anyone's!"
Shizuo and the woman glared angrily each other in their flaming eyes and then they both just turned their face other way as sign of being tired of arguing. Chosen one, eh? Is Shizuo getting married or something?
Shizuo turned himself to right and muttered for the woman without looking at her, "I don't wanna hear another word of that anymore! You all should mind your own business, not mine! In the future we'll see what happens. Until then!" Shizuo walked angrily away, apparently heading to the Russian Sushi. Izaya could even see him grinding his teeth... Shizuo was pretty pissed.
When Izaya turned his gaze back to the woman, he saw how she watched Shizuo leaving. When the blond disappeared from the sight, she turned her gaze to Izaya. Both eyes met and the woman's dark colored orbs narrowed slowly, like there was something she didn't like in him. Then she just turned her back to him rudely and headed forward. This woman was annoying...
When Izaya was about to go after her, there were people suddenly walking everywhere. The woman vanished and Izaya just stood stunned in the middle of the street with many people who passed him. He didn't understand anything at all! That woman seemed to hate him for some reason,maybe she is just influenced by Shizuo... But he has never even seen that woman before. Who was she?
When Izaya got rid of his flood of questions, he remembered that he had to send a certain message to Gero-ni. As he typed the text to the phone, he sent it to Gero-ni.
He got an answer little later and as he readed it, there was single "Ok!" written in it. Okay, now he could go annoy Shizuo, but maybe he'll just keep everything he heard and saw in his head until he knows more of it, if possible. Until then he'll just keep on with his plans. And so, Izaya went to look for Shizuo.
Shizuo didn't know what to think. It was so frustrating to argue about such a stupid subject with Nelia. The black haired woman wasn't so bad really, although she agrees with the rest of Valhalla folks that he should go with that shit head... That bastard wasn't so bad, he was nice to everyone, sometimes... But all the negative things about him where a problem for Shizuo. The headache... He hated that guy even more than Izaya! He maybe a bit of fears him, too. He didn't want to think about that asshole, neither about the other asshole. But as about Nelia, when she came to him in disguise of an old lady, even Gero-ni of all the people didn't notice anything. A disguise for a human eye. Well, at the moment it was a good thing that Gero-ni didn't realize anything. He doesn't want that she sticks her nose to his affairs like those other ones do. Gero-ni would too, if she knew.
Shizuo walked with Gero-ni at the street. Gero-ni asked some things of the city from Shizuo, and he gave an answer for them all.
When they were walking in silence, suddenly it was broken by Gero-ni's phone, which said, "You've got a mail~!"
Gero-ni took her phone from her handbag and read the message on it. He hopes that only his eyes were playing with him, because the way Gero-ni smiled after reading it, was little scary. He saw how Gero-ni typed "Ok!" to the phone as an answer to the sender.
She shut her phone and looked up and in the same time her eyes seemed to stuck to the shop building near them. Clothing store... How ironic, Gero-ni was a woman after all. How she would yell at him if he said it out lound.
"I'll go see what kind of clothes they have!" Gero-ni's eyes sparkled of excitement. Shizuo smiled to her, "I'll wait outside. Today is so nice weather."
Gero-ni smiled as she nodded for him and went inside the store. Shizuo leaned toward the store's wall. The sun was so nice... It was warm and all. Gero-ni was going to take her time in there so he can finally rest a little. This day has been so tiring... Gero-ni had been so fussy today, why is that? As he shut slowly his eyes, he sank in to his thoughts again.
Shizuo was bothered with a thing or two. Like the thing that Gero-ni was acting little weird and Simon was not any better, when they left from Russian Sushi. Something tells him that Gero-ni's and Simon's terms are a bit messy. Fuck. It was supposed to go like they hold their hands and there would be some rainbows and such. But he sees it like they are having a kung fu fight at a very stormy day that there is even a tornado destroying everything from the background! Somehow this day has been some kind of a nightmare. First Izaya appeared when he was going to fetch Gero-ni, then the info man who still makes him sick, then Gero-ni hiding something that seems to be only nothing good, and then Valhalla folks complaining to him about that thing...
Shizuo sighed of the pressure that others gave him. Will they ever let him decide of his own life, what he wants and doesn't want? Curse everything... He can only hope that the rest of the day looks bright. Everything has been like hell to him already. Hopefully all bad has happened already, or has it?
Shizuo slowly opened his eyes... To see one and the only person's face, which he didn't want to see at the very moment, only about fifty centimetres away from his face.
"Nice to see you again, Shizu-chan!" Izaya said to him with his usual shitty smile on his face.
"...This day really sucks".
Too much things to do... That's why this is little late. ^_^" The Simon part slowed me down too. It was hard to make his "serious" side, ho ho. Izaya was difficult too... As you can see, this chapter was little... Crappy one. Or so I think. Sorry! I tried and now I can start to write the 4 chapter. Untill then~!
