Learning and Disappearing

Ridiculous. That was the only way anyone who saw the pink clad man could describe him. Nanao continued to walk checking her watch and muttering to herself,

"Where did that idiotic man put his sake? I need to dump all of it down the drain or else he's going to throw another party and the last one took forever to clean up." Unfortunately for Nanao, she didn't notice the quiet murmurs of the afternoon rush as they exclaimed at the…extravagant man as he snuck behind his assistant.

Roy had more luck than the other as he walked through the crowd, looking like any other man on the street. Riza reached the café that she and Nanao had decided on and looked around for the black haired woman.

Allowing herself to relax into her book, nothing usually would have been able to stop her. Though this time as the presence of another person sat across from her, she forced herself to close the book and look at the smiling woman.

"Hello Riza-San." Nanao courteously greeted her.

"Afternoon Nanao. Did that boss of your's get thrown in jail for murdering those thugs from last night yet?" Leaping out of the bushes Shunsui spoke out.

"WHAT?" All eyes were drawn to him as his loud voice echoed throughout the area. Nanao's face immediately turned bright red as she dragged Shunsui down before he went destroying the nearest thing…or person.

"Shunsui calm down, they didn't harm me! Well not a lot." Saying the last part under her breath. Remaining in his rage that, "Someone had harmed his precious Nanao-Chan!" Nanao turned to her last resort. Her fan.

With a loud thwack! Nanao's fan slammed down into Shunsui's forehead as Shunsui clutched his forehead to act like the drama king he is. Nanao turned to give him the death glare that immediately stopped his whining. A sigh escaped her lips as she turned back to Riza,

"Well now that he's here let me introduce you to Kyouraku Shunsui, my boss." Riza suppressed the smile that was threatening to bubble to the surface at their antics.

"Might as well introduce you to mine as well. Roy!" Riza raised her voice just a notch so that the nearest bush could hear her. Popping from the bush Roy had a pensive look on his face,

"How'd you know?"

"The smell of Havoc's cigarette smoke. No one here's smoking." Riza supplied, sipping her tea.

"Dang it! I knew I should have banned smoking from the office!" Roy muttered as he walked over to take a seat at the table.

"Nanao, Mr. Kyouraku this is my boss, Roy Mustang." A smirk grew on his face as the conversation between the group of four progressed.

By the end of it Kyouraku and Mustang already had agreed to meet tomorrow at a nearby bar while the girls looked on disapprovingly as they glared at the slacking males. Both had paperwork. The last straw for them was the two lazy men began to flirt with the waitress.

A glint appeared in both of their faces. A very bad sign for the enamored men. One way or another they were going to be dragged back to the offices unconscious or even worse without an arm. The subtle click sounded as Nanao jabbed her hand at a point in Shunsui's neck. Shunsui collapsed as if drunk, which he never did, with his liver of iron. Roy was already out with the tranquilizer dart that Riza had modified to fit in her gun.

Calling their subordinates Riza and Nanao managed to drag them out to the car that was waiting for them.

"Would you like to meet again tomorrow?" Riza asked she set Roy in the car with help from the driver.

"Of course, but should we bring these two?" Nanao said, flicking her eyes at the two unconscious men. Giving a sigh Riza helped Nanao carry the much larger Shunsui into the second car.

"It's not as if we have a chance, they'll follow us anyways." Nanao snorted,

"Yes I guess you're right. So here tomorrow?" Nodding they each got into their respective cars and drove off.

By the time Riza had reached the university, Roy had awakened and was frantically trying to find some way around the paperwork. Nanao was fending off the flirting Shunsui and in essence both subordinates were having a somewhat difficult time keeping their bosses in line. Little did they know four eyes followed their moves with an indescribable hunger.

Two mouths grinned in the dark as they watched the girls push the men into the building. One of the men's mouth was twisted in a dark, sinister smile. They lay in wait for the perfect timing…than they would pounce.

Nanao closed her eyes, enjoying the peace and quiet of the office as the noon sunlight streamed in through the windows. Peace and quiet was rare here as it was always bustling with people trying to finish the paperwork that Kyouraku-San neglected, but for once they had finished early and everyone else was relaxing.

Sipping from her tea, Nanao continued to gaze out the window until a loud slamming shattered the quiet and as Nanao's eyes raised she found herself barely two inches from her bosses' face. Scrambling backward, Nanao completely forgot of the tea in her hands as it spilled from her cup to scald her hands. Grimacing, she dropped the cup she was using to nurse her burned hands.

Shattering, the cup left sharp shards of ceramic scattered across the floor. As the giant drama king swooped in to help "Poor, sweet Nanao-Chan!" Her hand flew up to stop him as she gave him a glare that sent him back to the bar he had come from. Sighing, Nanao began to pick up the shards of ceramic before someone stepped on it.

Similarly Riza was done with the paperwork and cleaning her gun, Roy burst in through the doors ready to burst with his excitement. Skidding to a stop Roy stared down the barrel of a gun into the eyes of the startled Riza.

Exhaling Riza slowly moved the gun down to glare at the careless man. Sometimes he can be so stupid! Riza fumed as Roy babbled on about unimportant things. With a clean snap the gun slid shut as Riza finished cleaning the gun. An audible gulp was heard as Roy backed off slowly as if dealing with a wild animal and once reaching the door, he dashed off to the nearest sanctuary.

Relaxing, Riza reached into her desk to load the gun and to prepare for the next time she would need to threaten Roy. Unfortunately she would need the bullets but not for that man.

Soon as the day crept lazily past but soon it was 10 and the office hours were over. A small smile graced Riza's lips as she thought that she would get the first full nights sleep for a month…she would be wrong. For as soon as she took the first step onto the sidewalk. A pure white cloth smothered her and the sweet stench that it gave off sent her spiraling to unconsciousness as she was dragged off.

Nanao had enjoyed the quiet day reading and just getting a bit of next week's paperwork done. Time had flew past as Nanao stood to leave as she let a smile break past her usual mask. Yet she doesn't know that behind her was her a shadow, just a shade darker than the others was creeping after her.

A sharp crack echoed throughout the empty building, shortly followed by the soft thudding of flesh meeting concrete. A tall brown haired man walked out of the shadows to allow his cold eyes to glance at her, before he carried her off into the night.
