A/N: No warnings this chapter. I had actually written this chapter in a whole other direction before deciding that it just complicated the story in unimaginable ways and scrapped it. This is a lot better. Ooooo, Hibari shows up in this chapter~.

~Herbivores get OmNomNom'd~

Tatsumi and I were crouched outside the wall of the school, trying to scope the patrols of the discipline committee out. We were hiding in some bushes across the street from the school and so far we hadn't been spotted by Hibari (thank god). I checked down both sides of the street before running across.

Tatsumi followed right behind me and was quick to kneel down and give me a leg up. I grasped the top of the wall with my fingers before slowly peeking over the edge. Once I was sure there was no one in sight I started making a mental map in my head of the area; where open areas were, the best places to hide, and quick escape routes if we were cornered. I slipped back down when I noticed one of the prefects turning the corner.

I crouched down next to Tatsumi and made sure to whisper quietly in his ear. In no way was the way I whispered in his ear too close, too low, or too sexy. Totally.

"We hop the wall once the prefect turns towards the gymnasium. We cut through the gardening clubs greenhouse to wait for the next prefect to pass by, then we make a break for the side entrance of the library. Once in there we can use the bookcases for cover."

I made sure Tatsumi nodded in understanding before listening for the prefect's footsteps. Once I heard the change in echo that indicated he was near the gymnasium I gave Tatsumi the go ahead. I gave him a boost up so he could climb the wall first. Once he was sitting on the wall he gave me a hand up (Tatsumi had stronger arms than I did) and I pulled myself up to sit next to him.

We dropped down once we were sure the coast was clear and ran crouched down towards the green house. We opened the door and shot under one of the tables filled with plants, just in time too, as we heard distinctive footsteps again. We watched as shiny black shoes walked past our hiding place through weathered greenhouse glass. Once I was sure the person was far enough away I snuck out from under the table and opened the door across from the library.

Tatsumi tapped my shoulder to show he was ready and then we made a dash for the library door. Our footsteps seemed to echo out across the courtyard as we ran across the quiet space. When we reached the door I felt like we had finally reached salvation…only the handle wouldn't budge. It was locked.

"You didn't think I wouldn't notice, did you? Herbivores?"

Shit. Hibari. And here I thought we had almost made it.

"We were hoping, yeah…"

Watching Hibari's glare was like the air was thinning around you; the more his anger rose the more it felt like it was hard to breathe. Oh wait…is this was bloodlust feels like? Hibari moved before I could react and he was rushing at us with Tonfa's raised. I flinched in fear and braced myself for the impact of steel on flesh…except it never hit.

I heard Tatsumi grunt in pain and my eyes flew open. He had taken the hit for me. I…why had he done that? Was he stupid? Stupid, stupid…sweet…crazy Tatsumi! He didn't have to go and act all chivalrous!

Hibari grunted and moved to hit Tatsumi a second time.

I threw a rock at his head. And it hit. With a 'thunk'.

My eyes widened when I realized my incredibly stupid actions. I watched frozen as Hibari slowly turned around and locked burning steel gray eyes on mine. Hooooly shit.

"Run, herbivore."

I didn't hesitate. I ran. Like hell; cause it was. This was hell!

"Kota!"

"Don't worry about meeeeee!"

I think I was crying as I ran. I soooo did not want to be beaten within an inch of my life. Gotta get somewhere isolated, a place where I can give him the slip with my strange new flame powers. Come on, come on!

I gasped when an idea popped into my head and then abruptly changed direction, just missing the tonfa that crashed down into the cement. I ran into school building, throwing open the door, caring nothing for the way it banged into the wall.

"Disrespect for school property."

Shit, shit, shit, shit!

"Running in the halls."

Whose fault do you think that is?!

I tripped a student carrying a shitload of boxes as I passed by them, satisfied when I heard the squeak of the unsuspecting victim and a grunt out of Hibari. Ha, he so didn't expect that!

My heart pounded in relief when I finally found the girl's bathroom on this floor and I wasted no time throwing the door open. I ignored the screaming girl at the sinks before throwing the stall door's open and locking myself inside. I crouched on the toilet and tried to focus on my inner flame (as well as ignore the bints shouting).

Come on, come on! Teleport, teleport!

I heard the girl's screams cut off before the sound of Hibari's tonfas klinking against the stalls rang through the bathroom.

"Assaulting a student."

Oh shit. Focus. Inner power. Spiral. Third floor. Boy's bathroom.

"Perverted actions."

What?!

It was at that moment that Hibari threw the door open and brought his tonfa down on me, except all the weapon did was slide through my body as if it were gas. And then a black spiral sucked up my existence.

I coughed as I came out on the other end of the portal, a spiral coming into existence and spitting me out. I landed roughly on the cold tiled floor of the boy's bathroom, landing in a stall with a foot splashing into the toilet. I groaned in disgust and pain.

Ugh…doing that rushed is sooooo not awesome.

I lifted my foot out of the toilet and was glad that they self-flushed. I did not want to think about what would have happened if they weren't. I slipped off my shoe and tilted it get the water out then squeezed it for good measure. Wasn't much I could do for my pant leg though…

I walked out of the stall and slid my shoe back on. I made sure to wash my hands before rushing out of the bathroom and running to my class. Thank god Hibari wasn't up here yet!

I slammed the classroom door open ignoring the cries of the students inside. The teacher was scolding me but I was just too relieved to really listen. The sound of the door closing behind me was music to my ears. I nodded and agreed to whatever the teacher was saying before taking my seat in the back of the room.

Hope Tatsumi made it back fine. Sucks we don't have the same class.

"Psst, Inoue!"

I peeked over at Ogawa from behind my textbook.

"What?"

He pointed down at my wet foot before glancing back at me with an obvious question on his face. I looked around nervously (I wasn't looking for Hibari…maybe…) before answering him.

"Tatsumi and I were late…and then we ran into Hibari."

"No shit?!"

"Ogawa! Quiet down! Or would you like to stand in front of the class with me?"

Ogawa stood up quickly before bowing in apology.

"No sensei, sorry sensei!"

I snickered behind my book as he sat back down. I was still giggling as I looked back over at him; he was pouting at being scolded. He felt my gaze on him and I mouthed the word 'Later' before turning back to my book. Once class was over I was going to look for Tatsumi. Hopefully he wasn't too beat up.

When lunch came around I was hovering behind Ogawa and using him as a shield. He put up with it pretty well actually, he had yet to try and beat me up. I think he was taking pity on me. He better, I was scared shitless! I did not want to run into Hibari again.

"Where are we going exactly?"

I peeked over Ogawa's shoulder and pointed down the hall.

"Try the nurse's office first. Tatsumi got hit pretty hard."

I ignored the looks from other students as we headed down the hall. They could laugh their asses off all they wanted, all I cared about was my behind staying in one piece. I was too pretty to die! Too young! I was still (somewhat) a virgin! If Hibari did show up, Ogawa was getting thrown at the carnivore.

"We're here."

Ogawa opened the door and I wasn't surprised to find Tatsumi lying on one of the beds. His shirt was off and he had a roll of bandages around his stomach. I noticed he also had a cast around his arm. I walked over and sat on the edge of his bed; man now I feel bad. Who did he think he was going and protecting me like that?

"You idiot…"

I used my fingers to brush back the bangs that had fallen over his face. His eyes slowly opened and I think he was confused for a few seconds before his eyes found my own. He moaned and tried to sit up. I leaned forward and helped him, putting a few pillows behind his back so he would have something to lean on.

"Well you don't look too beat up."

Ogawa finished before leaning back in the chair he had claimed on the other side of the bed. I looked at him like he was crazy.

"What? Last time Hibari got me I was in the hospital with broken ribs and a concussion. You got off easy my man."

I rolled my eyes.

"If I remember you were caught trying to go at it with a girl on the roof."

Ogawa just shrugged his shoulders and kicked his feet up on the bed. I ignored him and turned my attention back to Tatsumi. He was trying to pull back the lid of a pudding cup. I snatched it out of his hands. There was no way he was getting that open with the cast on his hand. I peeled it open and used the spoon to eat some of it.

"Hey!"

I giggled before filling the spoon and bringing it to his mouth.

"Say 'Ah~'."

Tatsumi glared at me with a blush before he opened his mouth and took the spoon into it. I smiled widely.

"What the hell's up with you two?"

I jumped and almost dropped the pudding cup at Ogawa's question. Oh yeah, he was here too. I laughed nervously before feeding Tatsumi another spoonful of pudding. Did I really not think he would notice how we were acting? Yeah, I totally forgot that he would notice. Man I am so oblivious sometimes!

"Um…nothing?"

"Yeah and I'm a virgin."

Good point. What the hell was I supposed to say?

"We're going out."

I gaped at Tatsumi. He said what? We were? So it…wasn't just a one-time thing? It wasn't just for fun? He…he liked me? I think I blushed as red as a tomato.

"We…we are?"

Tatsumi glared at me before pulling me forward and sticking his tongue down my throat. I screamed into his mouth and tried to push him away. Ogawa was right there! He didn't let up at all and soon I found myself giving into him. Oh man…he could kiss. I was breathing heavily when he pulled away.

"Yes, we are. Don't think I'll let you say otherwise."

"Holy shit that was hot."

I jumped and stared at Ogawa horrified. What? He was looking between us with laughing eyes. Maybe he really did do anything that moved…

Then the door slammed open.

"Herbivores."

Uh-oh. He found me. I turned around and shifted nervously as he stared me down.

"Inoue Kota; not only were you late, but you broke five additional school rules: disregard for school property, running in the halls, assaulting a student, running from a prefect, and entering a girl's bathroom. Prepare to be bitten to death."

I heard Ogawa snicker behind me and I swore I would get him back, after I somehow figured how to get out of this situation of course. What do I do? What do I do? I watched as Hibari brought his tonfas out and I shivered in fear. Oh shiiiiit. Then an idea struck me.

"Wait!"

"Ten seconds herbivore."

"I'll…um…I can serve detention right?!"

"After I bite you to death."

"What about…uhh…community service?"

"Five seconds."

Shit, shit, shit in a biscuit!

"I'll loan myself out!"

I breathed a sigh of relief when Hibari stopped in front of me and considered my offer. I could almost see the wheels turning in his head before he closed his eyes and put his tonfas away. When he opened his eyes again they were devious…and a scary smirk was on his face. As if he had won some great prize. Ohhh he better not have planned this outcome.

"Change it to being my slave in the disciplinary committee and I won't devour you whole."

I could hear the chains and rattles already. I felt like crying, but I knew there was no way out of this. I whimpered before nodding my head in agreement. What choice did I have anyway? At least it'll only be while I'm at school. And since this was my last year in middle school, I could just make sure to go to a different high school than Hibari.

"Student lounge. After school."

I nodded weakly and watched as he left the nurse's office. Okay, my life was now officially over. UUUUUGH!

I whimpered before flailing and crawling into the bed next to Tatsumi. He patted me head.

"There, there."

I stood outside the door to the student lounge. I knew I should open the door and go in, but my body just wouldn't move. I just wanted to stomp my feet and throw a tantrum. This was sooooo not fair!

"Open the door already, herbivore."

I jumped about a foot in the air before turning around to find Hibari behind me. I thought he was inside! He glared at me and I was quick to open the door and hold it open for Hibari to walk in first. He walked in and set his coat off to the side before sitting behind his desk. He pointed to the couch and I nervously sat down on it.

He then ignored me as he got to work on different papers. I twiddled my thumbs and picked at pieces of the couch the more time passed. Sitting still for long periods of time really wasn't my thing. Maybe I can take a nap…

Just as I was going to lie down to sleep Hibari stood up and walked over to me. I sat up straight as a board. He just stood there staring at me. I shifted nervously.

"Um…"

"What was the power you used to escape me?"

I gulped and looked anywhere but at him. I'm pretty sure at this point in time Hibari hadn't unlocked his flame yet. What was I supposed to tell him? That it was some mystical power I was born with. Maybe something closer to the truth is best.

"Well…um…see I'm kind of psychic…and because I'm…psychic…I have psychic powers?"

A tonfa smacked the back of my hand before I was pushed down onto the couch. I yelped as I held my hand to my chest but I completely paled when Hibari straddled me. Holy shit. Holy shit. Holy shiiiiiiiit! I tried to sit up but Hibari proved quicker than me, grabbing my wrists and locking them above my head. I tried moving my hands but they wouldn't budge. How freakishly strong was he?!

"Each time I think you're lying, herbivore, I bite."

What?!

"Talk."

"But..I…"

He pulled my shirt down roughly before biting down on my shoulder viciously. I screamed as his teeth broke my skin. And then I was embarrassed that I had screamed at all. The skin there was just so tender!

"Talk, herbivore."

"Um….uh…it's something I was born with, I just learned how to use it recently!"

I jolted when he bit me a second time, this time a little above the other bite. Oh boy, that had hurt just as much as the other one. I whimpered.

"F-Fine…it's called a flame. It's something some people are born with…I unlocked it when I was in danger."

Hibari didn't bite me this time but licked at the other bleeding bites. I blinked before blushing. What the fuck was Hibari doing? I squirmed but he only tightened his hold on my wrists. His hot breath brushed against my ear.

"The teleportation?"

"T-The ability o-of my flame."

"Hmmm…"

I clenched my eyes shut. What the fuck was going on? Hibari was on top of me, not beating me up, but practically molesting me! I gulped and readied myself for the worst; except it never came. Hibari climbed off of me before pulling me up by my shirt. I grasped his hand on instinct before I realized I was actually touching him. I let go as if it burned.

"Show me."

I nodded, if it would get him off my back and stop freaking me out, then I'd do anything.

"I…I need a destination."

"The roof."

I nodded before grabbing his hand. I was honestly surprised he tolerated it.

"It may be a little rough."

Then the portal appeared and swallowed us whole.

We came out on the roof, spiral opening and setting us down. For some reason Hibari jumped out gracefully while I tripped and fell. Stupid Hibari and his stupid balance and stupid awesomeness.

He looked around the roof before making his way back over to me.

"Does this have a limit?"

I thought on that as I sat down against the fence surrounding the roof. I supposed the power it took to make the portal was proportional to how far I had to stretch it, but I had never really tested how far I could go.

"Well…I'm pretty sure it's limited to places I've been…but I think I can also make a portal if I have a picture of the area I'm supposed to port to. And I'm not sure about long distances yet. I haven't really tried that."

I stiffened when Hibari nodded and sat down beside me. He then proceeded to lay his head in my lap and go to sleep.

Really?!

"Move and I'll bite you to death."

I whimpered. I really was his slave now wasn't I?

Someone save me!

A/N: Looool poor Kota. Hibari's taken an interest in you. You'll never escape him now. Wonder what's gonna happen with Tatsumi? Dun dun dun!
