A/N: Okay so glad that you guys liked that last part of the previous chapter because honestly I wasn't sure if it was good or not. That was kinda my first time writing smut (and yoai smut nonetheless) so my face was red as a fire truck the whole damn time. And now onto more important things...AoKaga!
Kagami trailed after Aomine in a daze. His mind was still in that room, replaying what had happened a few minutes ago. Now don't get him wrong, he'd had his fair share of sexual experiences before, like any hot-blooded male. The only thing was, they were all girls. He'd never in his eighteen years of life thought of guys in the sexual way. So when he'd walked in that room, locked eyes with Aomine who was in a compromising position and hadn't even noticed the woman –only saw tan, tan skin and dark blue bedroom eyes that radiated lust –to say he was a little freaked out would be the understatement of the century.
That his next thought had been, holy fucking shit he's hot, didn't help either. Then the bastard had trapped him against the wall and proceeded to –for lack of a better phrase, come onto him. It was like he knew what Kagami had thought. He couldn't have, right? But he could still picture it clearly in his head, the flush of desire as he was covered by Aomine's caramel skin, the eyes that shouted 'Let's fuck', the –shit why couldn't he stop thinking about it?
Thankfully he was shaken from those thoughts when his face came in contact with Aomine's back. "What the hell bastard? Why'd you stop?"
Snorting in amusement Aomine gestured for him to look around. "We're here dumbass."
Blushing he stepped back, "Oh." Kagami looked away and cleared his throat in embarrassment.
Aomine leered at him, "something on your mind Bakagami?" He rested his hand on his katana (a wooden one instead of his usual) as he slowly looked Kagami over, "or someone?" When he blushed further Aomine's smug grin grew.
"Shut up. Aren't you supposed to be training me Ahomine? Not like I expect to learn much from an aho like you."
"Tch. Knowing you I'll have to start from the basics." Aomine tossed him the extra wooden katana he'd brought along with him.
Right when he caught it he had to bring it up to block. That bastard was already trying to one up him. He scowled, "you could give me a heads up." Pushing against Aomine's sword to get him off balance he slashed upwards.
"I'm just getting you ready for the real thing," the other mocked. Aomine quickly bent to the side and faster than should be possible switched to offense. His change of pace was just crazy. That's what made his sword style so damn effective, not to mention fluid.
It was a series of quick attacks and dodging like his life depended on it after that. Aomine was pulling no punches this time, pouring all his frustration into each stroke of the wooden sword. And all the while looking like a graceful jackass, unlike Kagami (whose mind was still somewhat occupied, and trying very, very hard not to think about how those hands gripping the katana had been trapping him against a wall not long ago) whom was jumping around like crazy.
When Aomine raised a hand to his mouth to yawn Kagami's competitive spirit flared up instantly. "This is just a waste of my time and energy. At least make it a little bit fun." A smug smile flashed on his face when Kagami's attacks were more vigorous and unpredictable than before.
"I'll win this time konoyaro!" His anger clouded his mind and he let his instincts take over, so when Aomine swiped Kagami didn't think, he reacted. Blocking the overhead sweep he pushed the sword to the side so the tip was facing the ground before running his own katana back up to slash at Aomine's throat. Only Aomine's quick reflexes save him from the fast slice.
Kagami smirked, "getting a little slow there, Aomine."
"Tch." Unfortunately after that Kagami didn't get another chance like that. Though it made him happy –more than he'd like to admit, since it showed he was taking him more seriously. Aomine slowly pushed him further back with a flurry of nonstop assaults. All he could do was repel the attacks and occasionally take a very hard hit to the side or limb. But every time he got hit it wouldn't dissuade him from picking the sword back up and beginning again.
"You're thinking too much Bakagami," he said suddenly, which made him hesitate and in return get hit in the hand. A hiss of pain escaped his mouth as the katana dropped.
"What? How can I think too much? Isn't it the other way around?"
Aomine had paused attacking him for the moment, so he could elaborate. "I would agree with you in any other setting," he ignored the angered 'hey!' from Kagami, "but your movements are too stiff which makes it easy to predict what you're going to do next. The first time we fought was there any thoughts on your mind?"
Kagami stopped, now that he thought about it… no. Aomine nodded like he already knew the answer, "Just by looking at how your muscles tense up shows me how you're going to move. So relax and don't waste the few brain cells you have left thinking about what I'm going to do. Use your instincts again, like that move from before where you weren't as bad as usual." The bastard just couldn't admit that he'd been caught off guard.
Kagami rolled his eyes and chose to ignore the insult in those words in favor of mulling over what he had suggested. "Fine… not a bad idea, seeing as it came from an idiot."
Getting back into his stance he made an effort to breath in and out slowly and clear his mind. This time when Aomine thrust forward his body moved more fluently, not as graceful as Aomine, but a definite improvement from before.
They were so deep in their duel that neither noticed how close they had ended up to the Kaijo platoon. The platoon was testing out different magic's against each other near lake. So when a stray spell flew past one of the Kaijo soldiers toward Kagami and Aomine, who were locking swords together, could only widen their eyes before it hit them. The powerful spell caused a shockwave of magical energy that threw them backwards. Groaning in pain, Kagami was the first to recover and went to swipe at the trickle of blood flowing down his forehead when he noticed something tugging against his left arm. Looking down his mouth dropped open, "Fuck."
Aomine finally sat up next to him when he realized that Kagami didn't swear because of the fall. "You gotta be kiddin' me," he tugged his right hand, noting the thin silver white and bluish black strand tying it to Kagami's left. Both their eyes turned to the idiot who had thrown the spell. The viciousness in their eyes had the guy stumbling back and swallowing hard.
"N-now guys. No need for violence," he whimpered as they both went to grab at him. The Kaijo soldier was only saved from their wrath because the string had stretched then bounced back causing them to fling back together and fall to the ground. Both moaned in pain for the second time, rolling around which only served to tangle them further.
"BAKAGAMI! Stop moving around!"
"NO! You stop," he said childishly.
"This is all your fault, so you stop."
"How the hell is this MY fault?!"
"You're the one whose so bad at sword fighting I have to train you, which led to this," the bluenette pointed out the string tying them together. Kagami growled getting in his face and punched Aomine's shoulder causing them to start brawling once again in front of the Kaijo regiment.
When they finally stopped and were pointedly looking away from the other the Captain of the Kaijo platoon stepped in before another started. "There's no need to get all aggravated General Aomine. I'm sure there's a spell that can reverse it. Stuff like this happens all the time around here." They turned their gaze on the slightly overweight Captain.
"…There better be or you'll be short one soldier." Aomine growled. A distant thud was heard as said soldier fainted.
"How can we get rid of this? Preferably right away, I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy. I mean dealing with this guy is a pain," he shoved a finger toward Aomine, "but being stuck with him is on a whole new level of torture."
Aomine's retort was cut off by the Captain, "Simple, the Healing Unit can easily take care of magical maladies such as this one." Kagami and Aomine shared a look, a trip to the Healing Unit it was then.
Midorima takes one look at the disgruntled pair trudging through the green door (which aggravates Kagami –did they color coordinate the doors with their hair?) and smirks, "It was predicted Virgos and Leos would have terrible luck. But this takes it to a whole new level. Oha-Asa is never wrong, as expected." He pushes his glasses up his nose in a superior manner. But then Takao comes out from one of the patients' rooms and busts out laughing, holding his stomach.
"Oha-Asa? The hell you talkin' about," asks a confused Kagami.
Takao wipes at an invisible tear, "that's the divine presence that Shin-chan's magic allows him to contact. It allows him to predict the luck of people based on when they're born." He let out another chuckle as he eyes the string. "Seems like you guys got into some trouble… unless S&M is your guys' kink?"
The redhead was in no mood, "Takao," he started, voice going dangerously low. "I wouldn't be caught dead with this bastard. Let alone have… do stuff with him."
Takao let out another squawk of laughter, "stuff?" Then his eyes glittered impishly, "though you didn't deny S&M was your kink. Tsk tsk Kagami, never thought you'd be so perverted. Here we were having the notion that you were some kind of angel."
Aomine snorted, "as much as I like the image of Kagami tied up, I don't like it when I'm also tied to him," he waves at the strand. "So do your damn job and get this thing off." His shameless words caused the flush Kagami had been repressing to come back full force.
"Does everything have to be sexual with you?"
"Yes," Aomine deadpanned.
"Pervert."
"Baka."
"Aho."
"Wow, you guys sure do like each other," Takao slyly says.
"Hell no!" Midorima gives Takao a look, and he was beginning to say something when another person comes through the doors. To Kagami's surprise it's Aida.
She stumbled a bit when she saw people were already there. "Kagami what're you doing here?" Spotting Aomine behind him only served to make her more bewildered. "General Aomine?"
As if explanation enough, Kagami pulls up his arm while holding back a grimace (it didn't work). After she nods he asks, "How about you? You sick?" It was odd just thinking about it, Aida seemed like that kind of person that never got sick.
Aida coughs and looks away quickly, "Uhh… just getting a general check up. You know, the usual. And don't sound so surprised, vampires can get sick too." She glances up only to shift her eyes down.
Oblivious as ever, Kagami accepts the answer without preamble and nods his head. Midorima clears his throat, "If you will Aida, my private seeing room is back this way." He shoots Takao another look, "I believe you can handle this…situation. Behave."
"Shin-chan you can trust me~!" Midorima scoffs with disbelief but just leads Aida to the back room. Takao snickered, "Such a tsundere."
Kagami looked unconvinced, "Ever think the guy just doesn't like you?"
"What? Didn't you see how cute he was? And he wouldn't leave me unsupervised without somewhat trusting me. Which is more than anyone can usually say for Shin-chan."
Aomine looked surprisingly thoughtful, "No, he's right."
Shooting him a quizzical look Kagami just let it go, there were more important matters that required his attention. "…So…" Takao broke from his trance to look back towards them.
"Oh right! This way." They entered one of the rooms for patients and took a seat next to each other uncomfortably. "Now let's have a look." He peered down at the link as he had them lift their arms so he could see it better. Takao's fingers probed at it while his other hand opened a screen and flicked through some things. Both of them sat in stony silence waiting for the (hopefully positive) explanation or resolution to this problem.
"Hm…"
Aomine's eye twitched, "Do you have the answer or not for fucks sake?" Takao looked distinctly unimpressed and kept flicking through the see-through pad (though they couldn't make out what it was he was looking at). There was a gleam in his eyes that neither of them liked.
"Well it seems as though you've been tied together…"
Kagami let out a violent, "No shit!"
Takao glared, "If you would just let me finish…" The redhead sighed impatiently but nodded his consent to continue. "As I was saying, the two of you have been tied together on another level. Not so much as just the physical, but it seems as though almost your souls have touched and for lack of better wording… latched onto each other."
"The fuck does that mean?" Aomine grumbled.
Kagami looked at the string, "wow your soul really is black Aomine." Cause clearly Kagami's soul had to be the silver white one.
Snarling, "shut up you idiot! Of course my soul is at least partially black, I'm a fucking vampire!"
"Huh, somehow I don't think it's just because of that…"
"Yeah well look at yours, its so damn pure you could be a virgin!"
"…" He did have some sexual experiences, but that didn't mean he'd gone all the way. Kagami blushed.
Aomine gaped at him, "oh my god you are!" He let out a howl of laughter, "this is just too good!"
"Shut up! I just… never got around to it okay! Not all of us are perverts like you."
Takao looked on in amusement, letting out a guffaw at the still red Kagami. "Settle down children. Don't you want to know more about it?"
This caused them to grumble a bit more but they turned their attention back to the black-haired man. "Go on."
"This is actually very rare, most souls just bounce right off each other. Though it seems like yours are so compatible that they cant differentiate between the other, thus stringing you together."
Aomine let out a strangled, "compatible?" while Kagami just groaned. "There's nothing compatible about us!"
"Your souls seem to disagree. Thankfully there's an easy solution."
This made them perk up in interest, "What?"
"Even souls as compatible as the two of yours are still very different. So with time it should go away."
"With time?!"
"Should?!" Aomine moaned, "You have to be fucking kidding me."
Kagami looked a little more than just put out, he gritted his teeth together. "How long?"
"Hm?" Takao blinked.
"I said how long," Kagami grated out. His jaw was hurting since he was clenching it so hard.
"…Hm… Based on the compatibility and previous cases…Three days?" He said while tapping his chin thoughtfully.
"THREE DAYS?"
Takao watched as Kagami and Aomine stormed out of the green double doors, slamming it shut behind them. Sniggering he saw Midorima coming up behind him with his hawk eyes. "Those two are just too much fun."
Midorima sighed, "What did you do?"
"Who me?" Takao said innocently. Though he wasn't fooling anybody.
"Yes you," he pushed his glasses up again. They never seemed to stay up.
"Oh nothing~! Just gave them a little push in the right direction is all. Anybody with eyes could see the chemistry between them after their little show at the opening ceremony."
"You didn't." Midorima said exasperatedly. "Takao…"
"Yeah yeah, you don't have to give me the speech about not messing with peoples lives." He pouted, "It's just too easy to mess with them."
Sighing Midorima fixed the tape on his fingers a bit, "please tell me you at least got rid of their string."
"Ah…" he chuckled and looked away from the glare directed towards him. "Oh come on Shin-chan~! I'm just giving them a little incentive to get to know each other." Midorima huffed but gave up; he knew Takao could be stubborn when he wanted, even though they hadn't known each other for long. "It was just too much fun, plus you should have seen their faces when I told them it'd last three days. Even a tsundere like you would have laughed."
Midorima ignored the last part and went to sit behind his desk. Takao looked towards the back room where Aida still resided, "How's Aida?"
"The same as before. The tests are still inconclusive… but I'm almost certain." Takao's face dropped all previous playfulness to morph into one of sadness.
"I was hoping you'd be wrong."
"Oha-Asa is never wrong," Midorima responded, but Takao could hear the 'though I wish it were this time' that was omitted.
