"Ngh! Shizu-chan!" Kanra muttered, trying to hush her voice. "Why are you licking there! Ah! No…don't!"

"Don't what?"

Kanra woke with a gasp, stilling straight up so suddenly that her head collided with the doctor's. He had been leaning over her, and was the one who had spoken. Shizuo, who was standing a foot or so away, snorted and look away.

"What's he doing here?" Kanra pouted, ignoring the doctor's question. She pointed at the monster in the corner and glared.

"He was here to make sure you were alright," Shinra answered. Shizuo snorted again and he continued, "He was worried that he really hurt you, so he helped us take you to my place."

"Can't hurt a flea," Shizuo mumbled.

"Fine!" Kanra complained. She pushed away from the doctor and made to stand up.

"Oh hold on," he warned her, standing up to get in her way. "We don't know if you have a concussion or not."

"I'm fine," Kanra said. Trying an old trick she forced tears into her eyes and begged, "Please, won't you let me go? I need to go find my friend!"

"This 'Shizu-chan' you were referring to?" Shinra asked, trying not to look embarrassed by having overheard her.

She almost scowled but kept her tears by saying, "Well yeah! She's just a little puppy! Please?! I need to find her before something happens to her!"

Shinra looked up at something behind her, and she glanced behind her to see the mute bike rider. She wasn't holding anything to show what she meant to say, but somehow it seemed as if the doctor understood her anyway.

"I can't let you do that," the doctor said with slight regret. "We don't know how badly you're hurt yet."

Kanra rolled her eyes and stood up, forcing him to back up. "Fine then," she said with abrupt directness, "then you're lending me your computer." Walking over to the nearest one, she sat down at the desk and turned it on, being faced with a password screen.

"Hey wait!" Shinra complained, hurrying after her and leaning over her shoulder. The mute did likewise, but without complaint. "What do you need? I can get you anything you want."

Kanra rolled her eyes and typed in a password. It passed, and she was at the desktop. She quickly got into the internet and let her fingers dance over the keyboard.

"How'd you…" the doctor trailed off.

Kanra smirked and answered, "It's easy to guess a simpleton's password. You obviously don't have an extreme sense of security, seeing as the front door isn't even locked right now, so you're password wasn't going to be super complicated. So I used your girlfriend's name and age, estimating it to be about 20 years old." They all looked at her, Shizuo with a raised eyebrow. "Don't mess with my work, or I'll punish you," she said in a cutesy, anime-like tone.

Izaya entered his apartment with a sigh of content. Shizuka followed with a growl of annoyance. This man was way too much like Kanra, and it was getting on her nerves. The ant she could handle, but this man who was like her but not at the same time was a mystery.

"Help yourself to anything you want from the fridge," Izaya said as he went to his laptop.

Her stomach growled on cue, and she went over to grab something. She just grabbed a banana, not allowing herself the temptation of a pie that was just sitting there, and went to his couch to lounge on. Staring at him because there was nothing else to watch, she began to daydream about her little ant.

"You can turn on the TV," Izaya said without looking at her, probably feeling her watching him.

Shizuka grunted, but just rolled to face the ceiling. She peeled the banana slowly, barely paying attention as she did. She was too preoccupied thinking of the idiot ant getting lost. She didn't notice Izaya watching her as she finished peeling the banana. She lifted it up to her mouth just as she spotted the brunette in her peripheral vision.

"Got something to say?" she asked with a smirk.

He smiled, she figured to hide the fact that he had just been staring at her put the banana up to her mouth, and said, "I need a description of your friend if I am to ask people about her."

Shizuka shrugged and bit into the banana. "She looks like you I guess," she said, making sure to swallow before answering. "Longer hair though. She has a furry jacket now, and black leggings."

"And the way she acts?" he asked, turning around to type it into his computer. "Anything she might have done to attract attention?"

Shizuka shrugged. "She's probably been quiet, seeing as I haven't heard anyone screaming in rage. But she acts a lot like you too, all arrogant and secretive. She's easy to read though, just like you." She could tell just from looking at his back that this irritated him. She got up and walked up behind him. "It's easy when you've been with her as long as I have. You probably have siblings, right? So you should know what I mean."

He turned his chair around to comment, but stopped as he saw how close she was. His eyes focused on the banana close to her lips. Knowing he was paying attention, she stuck it into her mouth without biting, enjoying the pink color his face was becoming.

"Yes I know what you mean," he answered quickly, whipping his chair back to face the screen.

Shizuka wasn't fooled. His ears were becoming redder, and she smirked. "What's wrong?"

"Nothing!" he said, a little too hastily. Trying to recover his composure he continued, "I thought you were someone else for a second…"

He trailed off and Shizuka saw his body stiffen. His ears were definitely red now, and she returned to the couch to spare him further punishment. "Good, 'cause I'm not gonna do you any favors," she said blandly.

Sarin: ok, so I gave Kanra awesome hacking abilities, please don't hate me. I thought it was more realistic considering the past I gave her to make her a hacker and not have a bunch on contacts. Also I implied a little yaoi and yuri in this chapter, just to tease those of you who read up to this point purely for smut. ^_-
