Chapter two

Enemy

I don't know how long I stayed in bed after stealing a small bottle of capsule inside the barracks, but damn, I can still feel the pain I had suffered. I remembered I was shot at my right arm, that explains the throb, heat, and sting that makes me go jelly whenever I move. And I also injured my left foot again when I jumped at the gates, so much for traveling tomorrow.

I opened my eyes, it must be late now or past midnight since the surrounding's covered in shadows. "Ugggh!" I grunt in pain, even breathing is painful, must hurt my rib cage as well.

Kuroko was sleeping beside me. He had managed to drag me back in this abandoned building near black port, just beside the black lagoon of Seiho. This place is what we call the dark cave, typical for unrestrained outskirts town, though there are no caves and it is not that dark, only abandoned buildings and the tracks of fire that had killed almost all the residents here.

Of course, the dark cave is now the area where homeless people, just like us, stayed, don't forget the syndicates and criminals *ahem*, and wanderers. A few more blocks from the north and you'll see a different view. There's a wide and tall iron gate, now that's the Yosen Military School, inside you'll also see subdivisions and markets, that's Seirin. My brother and mother are there. The government gave them house and lot the moment my brother graduated in Yosen. I saw his picture in the papers last month, he's the top of the graduating class.

Kuroko and I had this unspoken rule that every Weekends we'll stay on this place. I just want to stay closer to them, my family, even though it means that I had to sneak out every now and then.

Since I had nothing to do, and I can't sleep, I guess I'll just stare at the dark ceiling. THWAK!

"Ouch!" I touched my face with my good arms. "Kuroko, if you want me to wake up, I'm already awake. And you don't have to hurt my face you idiot!" I snarled.

"I'm sorry Kagami-kun, but can you hear that?" He sat up.

We stayed still, not making any noise, distinguishing every sound our ears can identify. That's odd, usually it was me who first hears the movements around us, even though we're sleeping.

"What is it?" I whispered.

He was already helping me to stand up. I put my good arm around him and slowly, we move out of our area and headed to the deeper part of the building.

"Some people who wanted to take our place." He answered a matter of fact. I already know that.

"Let's move then." I agreed. Usually we don't give up our territories that easily, with just one look that came from me, people back out, but I don't have much strength now, and they might have weapons. Kuroko won't stand a chance.

We settled in a darker and colder room, half of the walls already gave up and now we're facing the lagoon and a starless sky. I leaned my back on the wall as Kuroko did the same. I smiled at him. Ever since we escaped from that hell, I've became a big brother to him. We're family now.

"Kagami-kun?"

"Hmmn?"

"Why did you go there last night?" He asked with anger in his voice.

Ah, so I've only slept, not passed out, just snoozing, for a whole day. "You know why Kuroko."

"No, I don't really get it." He said, he's not looking at me, and his expression is still the same, but I can feel the irritation in his tone.

I sighed. "Since we're already here in Yosen, I thought I might not let the chance go."

"You're smart, but dumb at the same time Kagami-kun."

"Hey! You moron!" I moved but cringed in pain again.

"What if they caught you?" He whispered.

"They didn't. They will never catch me." I close my eyes. What happened last night? Well, when we visited old-man Kiyoshi, Kuroko's grandfather, near the Port, believe me it was one of the poorest district of Japan, he'd been having this high fever.

The old man didn't know we were there of course, it's just like we always do. We visit him every night before heading to Seirin, Kuroko left money or food, sometimes medicines, at old-man Kiyoshi's backdoor. As we're about to leave, military truck arrived at the neighborhood. We watched from the rooftop of a six story building.

Military officers knocked at the doors of the residence. After three knocks and ifthe doors are not yet open, they'll kick it hard and enter. "Those bastards."

Old-man Kiyoshi's door opened after the second knock, Kuroko watched closely.

"Relax there buddy." I patted his head.

I estimated that it was after twenty minutes before the officer inside gone out. Kuroko was so worried that he almost jumped there and then. "Relax, I'll find out what's going on." I said. As quickly as I can, I tried to put on my cap and a faded blue jacket before jumping my way down using fire exit staircases.

What I managed to hear from the stupid soldiers almost made me lose control. Almost. I had to bite my tongue to keep my mouth shut. I headed to where Kuroko is and told him everything.

"Kagami-kun…" Kuroko said, waking me up to reality. "What are we going to do now?"

"You've got to believe me okay buddy? I already got the cure. Besides, I think we need to move old-man Kiyoshi out for safety, or else the authorities will suspect him." I said.

"Where?"

"There's no better way but to seek help from old-Junpei." I managed a soft laugh.

"He's a rebel." Kuroko pointed out.

"Yes, but he's our only hope. I don't want old-man Kiyoshi die." I smiled at my partner.

"Okay, but how're we going to do that?" He asked.

"Tomorrow, we'll go at old Junpei's place."

"Kirisaki? But it will take us a whole day of walk, with the delay we might take it a little longer." The delay is my weak and injured body. Nah, I heal fast. I'll manage traveling fast.

"Kuroko, we have another ten days to save your grandpa okay?" I said. "It was the second day since he got ill. According to the stupid officials, residents who got the new virus had ten days before their body gives up."

"Yes, but he's too old—"

"In two days, we'll be at old-Junpei's house, we'll ask for his help. And besides, I already stole the cure. Trust me buddy, yeah?"

We stayed silent for a long time. And I guess I fell asleep again after that.

Miracles

Day One of mission

We are now heading to the small town near the Port. Kise and I are dressed differently. And when I say differently it means we're dressed in a tattered and faded jeans, dirty tees, and worn out shoes. We need to look like we're street people.

Akashi told us the plan yesterday. Murasakibara, Akashi and Midorima will stay at the headquarters to monitor us through earpiece and talk box. We need to be as invisible as we can. The question is why do we have to bother investigating the small town near in the Port?

The answer is simple. You see, to be able to improve the medical capabilities of the country, the government choose the poorest towns to be experimented. They develop new virus and contaminate the waters of the people, then improve a stronger cure for that virus. After a few days, they'll be sending cures to these people, if, yes there's an IF word there, they wanted to let the people live.

And considering the fact that I'm working for the government, I really feel pathetic, like a dog or a puppet.

"That town is the only one with water contamination. The cure had been developed, and it was stolen by Light." Akashi explained. "He knows where the cure is located as well."

"Oh-ssu!" Kise commented. "So that means, Light-san must be close to someone who is living in that place!" He smiled cheerfully.

I rolled my eyes. It was obvious.

And now we're here, traveling the streets of Kirisaki. Akashi said we needed to at least start in this district before heading at our target place. We need to get information about this criminal, and the streets are the best answer to that.

"Aominecchi…" Kise's voice came from my earpiece.

"Yes?" I answered.

"I'm outside Kirisaki now, I'll be entering this old bar near the boundary." He informed me.

"Okay, I'm still here, maybe three blocks away from you. I'd be staying in this alley for a few minutes, I'll ask the beggars here about Light. Inform me when something's wrong."

"Okay-ssu, I'm going dark." He said. That means he's going to turn off his talk box, a tiny microphone inside our mouths which enables us to communicate despite our distances between each other.

Partner

I think it was the first time I saw Kagami-kun took an interest over someone. No way! Yes he flirts from time to time but that's because he needed to. You see, this is what happened a while ago. We entered the bar near the boundary of the Port and Kirisaki, we've managed to move faster, considering the fact that Kagami-kun's injured.

While he's taking his time talking and *flirting* to Imayoushi-san, one of the bar tender, I was in the corner, betting on who will win in the brawl. It was pretty popular here, except when cops decided to interfere and get some cash, it's pretty much fun.

I'm betting on this big muscle guy, other than the way he shout *muscles*, he's a good fighter. Not as good as Kagami-kun though, Kagami-kun is a prodigy whom the government wanted to make as their pet rat.

I've managed to triple our cash now. The guy won another round, the crowd's cheering and trying to shove someone in the center for another brawl. No one dared.

When I was about to turn my back and head to Kagami-kun, a blonde tall boy was pushed in the middle. He's scowling and looking pissed. The crowd cheered again, I look at Kagami-kun and this time he was eyeing the boy. He gave me a signal, "Place the bet on the pretty boy." That's what he said.

I followed. To be honest, I'm not sure whether this Blondie can manage to throw Muscles outside the small circle, he's like half the size of his opponent. But Kagami-kun's the expert.

ENEMY

Wow, what does a pretty boy doing in here? I whistled. I studied him, despite the fact that his clothes are dirty and his hair is messy, and he looks like he can't even outrun Kuroko in a relay (in other words he looks like a weakling), still, he was scowling and not shouting or escaping. It looks like he's thinking, deeply thinking. Okay, not all street people do that.

When he stands up and look at the big guy in front of him without any hesitation or fear in his face, I know, he's going to win the fight. And boy I was right, when he posed for his stance, stance that I've seen Military officers do, I've got a funny warning inside my head. But I shoved it off. People can pick up fighting styles everywhere anyway.

Okay, so I'll talk to Imayoushi first and at the same time not letting Kuroko out of my sight. He's a troublesome boy, and he always got into trouble. Sigh.

"So, what do you think of our offer?" He smiled creepily.

"I don't know, I mean I'm busy today." I winked and smiled sweetly. "But what can you say about you know, the issue in the black market the other day?" I'm making small talk just to gather information, might as well useful when the time comes.

"Hmmn? I don't really care about those peop—" His eyes widened.

I look at the direction and saw that the pretty boy was stabbed from behind. That's dirty work. I don't know why I did this, but I just did okay! I threw smoke bombs in that course; everyone panicked and run in all directions.

I grabbed Kuroko's hand and headed to the center, pretty boy's trying to stand up. "Let me help you." I offered my hand.

He hesitated for a few seconds, but later, he accepted my offer. So I run as fast as my injured body could, holding two people and leading them in a secluded corner. Beside one of the trash bins, I decided to stop, moreover, the pretty boy's bleeding.

"Kuroko, tend his wounds." I said. Kuroko just nodded and checked him. I was leaning my back on the wall beside them, I don't feel alright as well, I think my wound opened again.

"It's not too deep, but it can get infected." Kuroko said.

"Just give me two minutes buddy," I panted. "I'll steal something in the pharmacy two corners from here."

Kuroko nodded and patted my head. "Be careful Kagami-kun."

I heard pretty boy muttered something.

"What?" I asked.

"Why did you save me-ssu?" He said. I looked at him, a blush was plastered in his pace.

"You don't want me to?" I returned his question. That must have annoyed him because he glared at me.

"I can protect myself-ssu thank you very much!" I protested.

"Yep buddy and you just did." I rolled my eyes and stand up. "Now I've got to do something about your wound."

MIRACLE

Kise said he went in this bar right? I was about to enter but I heard a sound of explosion. And based on the smoke that managed to escape from the tiny holes of the windows and the lines of the door, I know that it's a smoke bomb. I almost forgot that these street people know how to make this kind of toy. An effective escape toy.

It may be my imagination, but I saw someone dragging two people with him. His movements are a little stiff and he looks like he's in pain. Funny, I was able to study him but the fact that he's holding a very familiar blond guy didn't catch my attention before they're meters away from me. "Kise, you're such an idiot."

I followed them. They stopped at this corner, I hide behind the piles of stinky garbages. I can still hear them, I readied my knife, just in case they're going to attack Kise.

After a few more exchange of words, I learned that they help him and that idiot is wounded. "What a pain!"

"Oi! What are you doing here hiding?" Someone touched my shoulder. I look up and saw the most beautiful boy I've ever seen in my life. And he also got this beautiful crimson eyes that matches his hair.

"Uhmm…" Come on Daiki, say something!

"You seem to eavesdrop in our conversation, why?" He narrowed his eyes.

"Why?"

"Yes, why?" He said again.

"…"

"You know him?" He said, "Ah you know him."

As if on cue, Kise said called me, "Aominecchi!"

"Yes, I know him. We were from the same district and ended up walking here."

He eyed me suspiciously.

"You know, looking for food and cash." I rolled my eyes. "You're from the streets right? Then you know what I'm talking about." I slapped his hands and he cringed a little bit.

"Just don't do anything funny, especially to my little brother. I'll be back within a minute."

"Whatever."

After a minute, the guy was already back. And he's holding bandages and cleaning materials for wounds. I made a mental note inside my head. 'He's fast like a Light. He managed to steal equipment. He seemed to observe his surroundings and pay attention to our every move. He also never told me his name, unlike the other guy here who's helping Kise. And one last thing, he's trying to hide the fact that his foot hurts.'

"What's your name?" I asked.

"Why do you want to know my name?"

I just shrugged and acted like I don't care.

"Taiga." He answered and smiled. "Hey, we're not bad people."

What a pretty smile. I curse myself inside. He's a boy and worse, a street boy who steal things!

"I know-ssu." Kise answered. "That's because you saved me."

This guy is too smart and too talented compared to the typical street people. He might be the country's most wanted criminal, Light, and he might not be. I'm not yet sure. Or he may have a connection with him.

He caught me staring at him and winks mischievously. 'If this guy's Light, it would be a waste.' I sighed. 'But if he's Light, wow, he's…hot.' What the hell Daiki, stop whatever you're thinking. You're a guy for Pete's sake.

I heard him chuckled softly before he closed his eyes again. 'No, Light is not this guy. He's too much.' I said to myself over and over again. 'But he can be.'

"Let's just stay here for a couple of hours. Tomorrow, when your friend is a bit better, you can go on your own ways too." He spoke softly.

I nodded, not sure whether he saw it or not. We do need to take a rest.
