~~~Arc 2 - Chapitre 26 - Considerations~~~
Yuya could only stared in concern as the younger boy across him coughing painfully, before stopping a few minutes later.
"I'm sorry." The smaller boy smiled apologetically, followed with a small cough. "My throat feels dry, that's why."
"Please don't forced yourself to speak, Chinen-san." Yuya shook his head. "Let's try asking for a water when someone coming, okay ?"
"I don't think it's a good idea." Chinen frowned, his voice sounded too raspy to his liking.
"Let's just, try." Yuya sighed and ended their little conversation.
It'd been hours since they first woke up, and no one came over to look for them. Which is a little weird. Usually, a kidnapper would constantly watching over their victims to make sure that they're not trying anything to get away. Or at least, he thought so. But anyway, it's not that they could run in their condition or something. In fact, they could barely move at all and Yuya started to feel his hands and feet numb from the strain of the ropes.
"It's frightening. Being left here without knowing what is happening outside." Yuya spoke again, voice straining as he felt his emotions raising. "And for a reason, I miss my brother."
Just as he said that, they could hear the door being opened and a man came in. And before they could say a thing, their world blackened.
***
Yuuki smiled as he watched the people around him start moving in actions. He roamed his eyes around the room before it fell on the figure at the right side of the room, who is currently being enganged in a conversation with their so-called leader. Enhancing his hearing, he tried to catch their talk from his position.
"I have to agree with your Vice. I'm so sorry, but I cannot risk anything here." The older man shook his head.
"But-"
"No, Zero." The man cut him off as he looked around to make sure that no one is listening before continuing in a hushed voice. "I had promised your mother that I will protect you and your brother. I had failed her once when they took your brother. I cannot fail her again."
"This has nothing to do with my mother !" The younger boy hissed. "I have to be there, Val. And you know that !"
"I will be there and save your brother. You just stay here with Faith and wait, okay ?" The older man tried to convince the younger. "No. This is an order, Zero. I don't want to see you out of this territory even for just one step. Do you read me ?"
Yuuki could see from the corner of his eyes how the younger boy's face hardened before he turned away and walked -or rather stomped- off without a word. He could also see how the older man sighed soon after from where he was left off.
Silently approaching the man, Yuuki gave him a tap in the shoulder, startling him in the process. Unable to stifle a laugh, he chuckled lightly at the reaction.
"Joker-kun." Valentine called out. "What's the matter ?"
Shaking his head slowly, Yuuki gave the man a look.
"I'll watch over him. No need to be that worried. You just focus on what you should be doing." Yuuki told him in a quiet voice as he casted his eyes to the direction where the younger boy went to. "And anyway, I think I'm not the only one who will watch over him."
And as Valentine turned his face to see what Yuuki is seeing, a smile formed on his lips as he saw the members of the Eastern Gate fussed over their Captain.
"Yes."
"You better get going. I think it's about time for the other leaders to be arriving at the noted place." Yuuki glanced onto his watch, seeing that it's almost midnight already.
"I believe so. Thank you, Joker-kun." The man nodded his head before walking toward Snake's direction.
"Anytime." Yuuki gave a smile to the retreating back before he returned to his post and smiled in sympathy at the nervous figure of his own Captain. "Poor boy. Suddenly being shoved into a position he never wished to. That Rai boy could surely created troubles."

Yamada Karin walked as fast as her manner allowed into the awaiting car on the side of the road. After telling the driver to drive as fast as she could, he sat restlessly on her seat, gripping a phone in her hands tight.
As soon as the car pulled to a stop, she stormed out even before the driver opened the door for her and rushed into the house. She found her ever loyal servant Trianna waiting by the door, soon guiding her to the living room where another two person already seated by the long coach of the room.
"Father. Mother." She called out before half-running into her mother's embrace, letting the tears she had been suppresing fell to her white-percelain skin, wetting the silk stole around her mother's neck.
"Oh, dear." She could feel a hand rubbing her back soothingly, trying to calm her down.
A few minutes later, she pulled back. Taking the handkerchief his father offered, the lady mouthed a small thank you before wiping the tears on her face.
"We have heard the story." Her father spoke firmly.
"Karin, my girl." Her mother placed a hand on her left cheek, caressing it softly. "Have you consider your decision ?"
"Yes." She nodded softly. "I cannot allow him to take my sons for granted anymore."
"Think about it again, Karin." Her father told him. And as she looked up, she caught him staring at her with his sharp eyes. "And I'm not talking about the fortune here. But if you were to divorce your husband like this, huge chance that Haruhiko-kun will receive the custody of both Yuya and Ryosuke. Well, Yuya is adult enough to have his own way, but Ryosuke is still classified as underage. Do you really want to leave him under your husband's custody only ?"
Karin felt dread washed over her system as her father's words hit her. He was right.
"What am I supposed to do then ? I had enough of his selfishness." Karin cried as she felt fresh tears forming on her eyes.
"Remain in the family. And fight for what you and your sons deserved." Her father told him loud and clear. "That's all you can ever do. We raised you better than to just let people taking control over you this easily. Our daughter is strong, and she can fight for her rights."
Looking up, she saw that rare smile her father gave, a look of dignity plastered all over his face. She then turned her gaze to face her mother, who gave her that ever so gentle look that always managed to gave her strength.
"Thank you."
***
"So, how are they ?"
The short-haired man stopped in his tracks and rolled his eyes.
"Unconscious." He answered shortly.
"Ueda-kun, can you at least give them water ? They could've died before our contractor get what he wanted like this." The first man tried.
"And you think I care ?" The man called Ueda raised an eyebrow. "Just, get lost, Kise. You're not needed here." He then walked ahead, leaving the man behind.
"But they need me." Kise whispered as he straightened his hold on the bag he's holding. Looking around to make sure that no one else is around, he slipped quietly into the room Ueda just left and approached the two unconscious boys in the middle of the room. Wincing at the wound on the two boys' head, he hold his urge to fix it right then and there and pulled out two bottles of mineral water from inside his bag and several other things. Placing an eye-cover around the two boys eyes each, he then put a masker around his own face. Gently shaking the two boys awake, he sighed in relief when slight movements came from the two boys.
He helped the two confused boys to sat up before placing a straw over the younger boy's mouth first.
"Worry not. It's just a water." He spoke through the masker and cringed at the alienated voice coming from it, but smiled as the boy nodded and sucked on the straw. Soon after the boy stopped drinking, he pick another bottle and place the straw over the other boy's mouth.
"I know this isn't much, but at least this will keep you hydrated. I'll try sneaking in some foods later, okay ?"
Two small nods coming from the two boys as an answer.
"Good. Now I want you two to pretend that this has never happened." He spoke in a rush as he helps the two boys back in their previous positions, all the while trying to erase anything that might gave away his acts. "Pretend to be asleep. Don't open your eyes even for a blink. You'll know when I'm coming back." Pulling the hat lower to cover his face, Kise then pulled the eye-cover off after he put back all the things inside his bag. And then without another word, he sneaked back out of the room.
"Yuri, please be strong. We'll save you soon."
