~|_X_|~

It was a Saturday, two weeks after the meeting Izaya had with Akabayashi.

The raven was hungry constantly, had massive headaches and back pain, his stomach had grown a bit more, so now he had to cover it with his bigger hoodie. Also everyday he was in all around a crappy, lonely mood. His dreams were constantly filled with Shizuo, and the fear of walking in to a house with grown up raven's who didn't know who he was. He woke during those nightmares, and cried many nights wanting and craving the company of those he held dear to his shattered heart.

At work he had done his best, but failed. He silently cursed divulging and dividing his secrets in a web had failed. He clutched his phone and sat at a police office, head between his hands because he had failed. He had gotten a frantic call that shattered his heart because everything had failed. There were faint sounds around him. Papers shuffling, people having small talk, and the sounds of life outside continuing as his own fell down around him, all because his last back up had failed.

His eyes widened when suddenly there were black dress shoes in front of him, his currently location the police department after a break in at the debt collector's apartment.

Slowly the rubies moved up, trailing up a black vest, and crisp white shirt, to a saddened and concerned face of Shizuo Heiwajima.

"YOu!" They both yelled, Izaya jumping to his feet, their faces inches apart as Shizuo leaned down. Izaya fisted his hands," YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO PROTECT THEM!" His voice was hoarse from worry and crying.

"YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO USE YOUR STUPID JOB TO STOP THIS!" Shizuo had hollered at the same time, and had to resist the urge to slap the younger. His anger towards everything Izaya stood for visible in almost waves of hate." Where are they!?" He demands," you know where they are!"

"I don't!" Izaya yelled back and shoved the brute away from him, the pain in those coffee eyes too much for him to bear." How? How did they get past you!?" He cried out and was devastated," fuck... You were supposed to protect them..." The mother fell back into the chair, an officer walking over grimly with some water."...Our babies..." he whimpered and covered his face again," I g-gave over Roppi to you to protect him..."

"My men are sending out the twin's pictures. The police will be on a look out." The officer interrupted and spoke in a deep calming voice," I am sorry." He handed Izaya the water and looked at Shizuo who nodded.

Shizuo sighed and sat down next to Izaya. Their chairs in front of windows with humans forgotten walking outside. Nothing was said between them for a long long time. Many people came in and out, but the two just sat lost in their own worlds. The shock too great for either parent to bare, and the officers understood. They let the two stay, the news of missing twins spreading like fire but quickly being forgotten like all other news. But it only stuck bright to Izaya and Shizuo.

Shizuo felt awful. He had only left for the store and came back to an open door and missing five year olds. He had run around frantically calling his employer that he was taking a few days off and called the police putting in a kidnapping before running to the police agency. He knew right away it had to do with Izaya and he growled. He didn't want the other involved, and blamed him right away.

"Orihara-kun...Heiwajima-kun." A voice rang in the room shocking the raven to looking up.

"...Akabayashi..." Izaya looked at the body guards who kindly were now distracting the officers while the yakuza member was there. The informant stood,"...what...happened..." His hand raised and smacked the boss's dog." What happened!?" Izaya shouts even as some of the body guards grabbed his arms, and Shizuo stood fighting against them until a gun was pulled at him." They're only five!" Izaya shouts.

"We-"

"It doesn't matter. They're gone because none of you could protect them." A new voice spoke," Orihara-kun... I am sorry for your possible loss, but as you can now tell there is a much bigger picture." Shiki was there himself and looked displeased," do you job. My men will be sent out to look for them."

"No..."Izaya says his voice shaking, his everything trying so hard to remain strong. The stress hurting his stomach and causing him a headache." No I will find them... I want nothing to do with you and your stupid gang." He snaps and looked at the Yakuza boss," if you try to stop me, or are the reason behind this, I will send everything about you to the police and I will find you and kill you myself." His voice was dark and dangerous, a promise to Shiki that the human loving raven wasn't simply human. Shizuo forced his way next to Izaya and stood as a back up, the informant teamed with his dangerous lover, the strongest man in Ikebukuro.

"You are quitting?"

"Yes." Izaya spoke sternly," I quit the moment I got the phone call from your lacky about Psyche and Roppi."

".. I will set your affairs in order."

"Shiki." Akabayshi spoke but was cut off by a glare from Izaya and a hand from Shiki.

"You will be released from service... Temporarily." Shiki spoke and pointed at Izaya," I still own the information you know. If you let even a single shed of that info I will be forced to take action against you."

"Understood." Izaya says arms crossed over his chest, his hoodie forming oddly around the bulge. Akabayashi stepped closer to the boss and whispered something to him.

"I know." Shiki informs and looked down at the ex-informant," I will not hold you any longer. But when I need you, I will call upon you."

Shizuo growled, and Izaya shot him a look." I accept. Now, will you let us go so I can find our sons."Shiki nodded and stepped back as his body guards did. The ruby eyed male and the ember eyed beast walked slowly together to the doors." By the way, Shiki,... If you are withholding anything that would help me."

"I'll have an email sent to you shortly."

"Good." Izaya spoke and looked the boss in the eyes for a moment longer before opening the door and leaving with the beast behind him. They walked to the grand apartment in Shinjuku in total silence, and entered the dark rooms in discontent. It was too quiet, and too lonely, but there was a slight hope. They hugged each other briefly, the younger drawing strength while the other drew more comfort knowing the other was there with him.

"I hate you job... I hate everything about the gangs, but I want to help you."

"Thank you..." Izaya says softly and blinked when soft lips touched his.

Shizuo had swallowed his anger seeing just how broken the other was, and now regretted more and more that he had left the other alone for so many months. He had given the raven space that had been asked for, but just as it killed Izaya, it tore Shizuo to shreds.

Izaya sat at his desk and moved over slightly when the blond pulled up another chair.

"It's all about monitoring right now." Izaya says softly," look for any key words or suspicions." Some english popped up on the screens and he took over those ones while Shizuo worked on the lap top.

"There's a mention about me." The brute muttered," it a date saying If I want to find what's lost." He pulled back when Izaya leaned over his shoulder. He didn't like Izaya's job but would put up with it only for a little while. It was the only way they could find their children and he would do anything to save them.

"Highlight it and copy it to the doc, I'll go over it soon as I sort out this english." Izaya says and let his fingers fly across a key board and went to the next one without hesitation, his computers coming up with the dirty cites of the underworld. He muted the speakers and winces at some of the things he was seeing on the children cites, he prayed for once not to find anything about his babies on this and was relieved to find nothing.

"What about the black market going to the Mafia?" Shizuo asks having come across that on the laptop," there's a man here called Toha that has it out for me and is asking the Mafia for help."

"Right.." Izaya sighed and picked up the laptop away from the blond, he read the screen and frowns." Shit..." He stood," Jiaru..." He pulled a keyboard to his lap and began to send out emails," ok ok..."

"What?" Shizuo asks and tilted his head curiously, but his eyes shined with concern.

"Rouge Yakuza, his wife was a boss's daughter and well... A debt to Tom-san. You found her trying to climb out of the back window of her house, and she had left a toddler behind when trying to escape. You don't care if the person is male or female and landed her in the hospital for four months." Izaya recited and typed furiously," Jiaru wants revenge on you... and the Yakuza for putting his wife up like that which means she also owed money to them. Which also must mean that Shiki did know this stuff, but was holding it back. He only sent the name Yuki which is of a newbie here in Ikebukuro, which means he still doesn't know much about anything. His wife is her sister, which means he has connections and reasons to be after you as well."

Shizuo sighed and sat back, he felt guilty but understood no matter how many times Izaya said 'which means'. He watched Izaya worked and wondered how the other could make all the connections so fast. He had never seen him really really work and was impressed to say in the least, but worried. The stress of it all was taking a toll on him, which meant it must be worse for Izaya, but there was only one thing on their minds." Find them." He stood and ran a hand through Izaya's hair comfortingly," find them... And I will get them."

"Understood, but I will go with you." Izaya mutters," they took my babies too."

"Then hurry up." Shizuo ordered and walked to the kitchen to get some milk and coffee.

~|_X_|~

Hachimenroppi heard whimpering and clutched his dangerous animal killers book to his chest. He got to his knees and reached out of his cage to the dark cover opening it a bit seeing a similar black dog cage. the room was dimly lit, and reeked of cigarette smoke so much that it made him want to gag. The ceiling had cracks in it, but was wooden, and the floor was a cold cement basement floor.

"Psyche?" He asks in a soft tone and heard small cries from the other, his twin's cage shifting a bit as the other raven moved.

"R-Roppi?" Came a very small reply,"... S-sorry."

"Why are you sorry, idiot?"

"Cause... I'm t-the older brother... I-I should b-"

"Shh!" Roppi hushes quickly hearing footsteps and lowered the cover. He waited and heard a squeak." PSYCHE!?"

"ROPPI!" Psyche called and the sounds of a cage being lifted was heard followed by laughter.

"I seriously think we should keep them like pets." A male spoke and laughed," they look just like their mommy... Who wouldn't want a face like his as a cum bucket?"

"Dude... Gross." Another voice spoke," they're like what... four?"

"Five." Roppi corrected and looked up when the cover was lifted and he could see out of the cage.

"I would wait until they're like... 13." The other male continued from the door way, he was holding the other cage in one hand, Psyche kneeling in it trembling since the guy wasn't holding it still." I'd take the more feisty one though." He had light orange hair and black eyes, and Roppi decided that he would be suited best to be mauled by a black bear.

The other guy was a dark blue haired male with black eyes as well," I'd take that one I guess... If he grew to look like a girl and have fluff." He sighed," but once again Toha, gross... They're five and it's the big daddy we're after."

Psyche whimpered," why do you want to hurt our daddy?"

"Cause he's a bi-" Toha began and was coughed at by the other." he's a big meany..." He finished and frowns hating censoring himself around kids, especially the product of Shizuo Heiwajima and Izaya Orihara." Your mother is also a total cu-" He heard another cough and glared," cut throat meany."

"Well I think you both are total cunts." Roppi spoke and Toha dropped Psyche's cage.

"You little shit!" He yelled and flicked out a knife, he didn't notice the cage flopping open and a little bruised Psyche scrambling out. The little raven took off and froze at the door reaching for the handle but not quit tall enough yet. He screamed when a third male came out of nowhere and picked him up.

"Take this." The black haired and brown eyed man growls and tossed the five year old to Toha. Psyche screamed being thrown carelessly in the air and whimpered crying since he had soiled himself when he was caught. He pushed at Toha who dropped him grossed out, the small child landing on his side the distinct sound of his breaking his arm breaking made all the adults wince.

"Ew, fucking gross!"

"Toha! Jiaro!" The blue haired one hissed, and picked up the crying Psyche." They're five!" He growled and walked to the side of the room where some boxes were.

"Don't tell me.."

"I prepare for everything, so cram it Toha." The male spoke and pulled out pants for Psyche and fresh clothes and lead him out of the room much to the annoyance to Jiaro and Toha.

Roppi trembled in fury, he hated the mean men. They kept bullying him and his brother, and only spoke about hurting their parents."Yuki are you done yet?" Toha pounded on the door which opened a few seconds later.

Yuki stepped out with Psyche in his arms." He has a broken arm." He mentions and sighs grabbing some duck tape and wrapping it tightly around Psyche's arm, the sleeve inside so that his sensitive skin didn't get hurt. The little raven had a few bandaids on and puffy eyes, along with a grey hoodie since his other one got blood on it. He trembled as Jiaro stepped closer to him. His hands fisting into Yuki's shirt since the youngest kidnapper was the only semi kind one.

The biggest male sighed," put him in the cage with his twin." He orders," we'll ship them to the Mafia in america tomorrow. They'll have better use for them."

The nicer one frowns,"What about the broken arm?"

"If they don't want him, they'll just kill him."Toha pouted and grabbed Psyche none to gently from Yuki who gasped. "Why do you care so much?"

"M-My wife is pregnant..." Yuki stutters, his fatherly side kept acting up around the twins since to him they were innocent.

"Oh." Toha smirked and let Psyche go nearly sending him to fall to the floor again, but caught him last second just as Yuki went to hit him." You really shouldn't care for them.. after all their father injured your sister in law... and I'm not hurting him really.. If I wanted to I would crush his little boy parts."

"That's not creative..." Roppi's voice floated up from the cage.

"Oh really... What would you do to your twin?" Toha asks and knelt by the cage as Jiaru left. He sat with Psyche whimpering in his lap and pretended to listen while Yuki sulked in the corner.

"For Psyche I would say ripping out his finger nails one by one. For you I'd say pouring boiling water down your throat until you cook inside out." The five year old spoke, his eyes shooting daggers at Toha. Izaya would of been proud of the threat and poker face that followed it, and Roppi kept his eyes slit.

"Boiling water?"

"Or salt water. Dry you out over a few days until you die very very painfully." He mutters and saw how scared Psyche really was at the mentions of the tortures.

"Very creative kid." Toha sighed and tossed Psyche into the cage and locked the door.

Psyche sat next to Roppi and clutched his little arm. He had pained tears in his eyes and didn't want to mention he had thrown up after Yuki had taken him away. He was trembling like a leaf, and wouldn't be able to sleep tonight. His senses in high alert and he gripped the bars bending them slightly as he squeezed.

Roppi took notice and smirked. He had a plan forming, so he smiled.

"Psyche... I know how we can get out." He mutters softly when the men were out of ear shot." But you're going to have to trust me and go through a lot of pain." He got a tentative nod," good.. First step, get some rest." He orders, Psyche nodded again trusting his twin.

He didn't want to speak scared of crying out loud and getting attention from Toha. He laid next to Roppi who comforted him and held his hand, and slowly the pink eyed Raven felt himself drifting. His body stealing his consciousness as his bones began cracking again as they began to heal rapidly.

Roppi checked his twin's arm a few hours later, it was still definitely broken, but it was useable to a certain degree. Now, the only issue was getting Psyche hyper when the older twin was obviously a wreck.

"Hey Psyche..." Roppi says in a calm, almost cheery voice as the sun shown through the basement windows in dirty brown streaks from years of gathered dust." Let's play a game."

~|_x_|~

Red: Sorry I got flooded with school and family stuff... I could only post today because I am sick...

Izaya: she's a mess so I guess a small leniency is allowed...

Shizuo:... With how she treated Psyche I don't think anything but writing the next chapter should be allowed...

Izaya: yeah.. You hurt my babies again I will go all Shizu-chan on you!

Psyche: please reveiw and fav! Red won't let me go back to my mommy and daddy until you do!

Roppi: Until next time...
