Disclaimer: THIS IS A FANFICTION, as in I do not own the Main Characters (who are of course real people that belong to themselves and each other). All Technicians/Doctors/Executives/Billionaires/Random Assholes are created by me. I reserve the right to throw the names of all you sexy people in if I need them. Ok? Y/Y? I can't even prove Angels exist, this is just for entertainment purposes, and the idea is mine so please don't steal. Feel free to wave at the suspiciously familiar OCs when they arrive (chances are you've seen them commenting on previous chapters). Etc.

‘You’re not going to get too close, are you?’ Kamenashi’s voice was strained with nerves as he reached for Ueda on a private link, his fear building as time stretched on and there was no sound from the other.
Jolted from his concentration, Ueda smiled internally as he skirted a low riding sports car with a derisive curl of his lip. ‘Worried about me already?’
‘Of course.’ In a tone almost like his mate Jin’s, the young male replied instantly. ‘You know that we love you.’
Tucking himself out of sight behind an SUV Ueda hesitated, kneeling to take another cautious glance around. The tension in the other Kin caught his attention, senses sharpening as anxiety rippled at the edge of his perception. The nearest guard was several cars away, and moving away as he watched. Taking in the simple pistol at the retreating figure’s hip, Ueda relaxed further. If there was an altercation, the guard would lose without question.
‘I know.’ Ueda replied soothingly, confidant that things were under control for the moment. ‘Is there something else, Kame?’
‘Well…’Shifting nervously, Kame directed his focus toward the Haven with a narrowing of his eyes.
Ueda waited, inching slowly toward the nose of the vehicle to cast a glance over the lot again. ‘Kame?’
Hesitating in his reply to the elder, Kamenashi stretched his awareness out and carefully searched for the reason for his unease, finding no immediate danger. ‘No… I guess… No.’
Jin frowned, reaching up to curl a hand around the back of his mate’s neck with a soothing hum of sound. The other shot him a grateful look and leaned closer when Jin pulled, enabling him to curl his arm around his lover’s shoulders. ‘Kazu, love?’
‘Just worrying…’ He whispered. ‘It’s probably nothing…’
‘Let me know if you sense anything… And I know to be careful.’ Ueda promised. ‘Wait for me…’

It was true night by the time Ueda felt he could get away with his next move. With a scattering of stars and only two lamps casting light over the area Jaejoong still paced, Ueda inched from his cover of the parking lot and threaded his way over to the building. Altering his course to keep out of sight of the Technician near one of the central buildings and even Jaejoong himself, Ueda made it to the outside wall without incident.
Standing right against the corner that led to the corner-post of the enclosure Jaejoong was in, the Japanese Kin leaned back against the wall and sat, taking advantage of the faint cover offered by the low hedges. Settling himself, he made sure that there was no sign of the guards noticing him, and then smiled to himself.
Having his back to the building probably qualified as ‘too close’ by Kamenashi’s standards. He was sure the younger Kin would berate him about it later. But for the moment, his thoughts reached to only one Kin. ‘Hey, Pretty Jae.’
A swell of affection from the captive Kin. ‘Hello Ueda…’ It was quickly followed by a rush of disapproval. ‘You shouldn’t be here.’
‘Are you worried about your captors or the babysitters just outside?’ Amusement colored Ueda’s reply as he stretched, his mind briefly returning to the three different presences he’d sensed hidden in the landscape beyond The Haven. ‘They’re young, you know… Younger than you, even.’
Jae scoffed, rolling his eyes even as he smiled. ‘I’m sure if the others had pointed that out, you would have slapped them down in a second. You know as well as I do that the age of the Kin doesn’t matter, the training does. If they’re anything like you, they have every right to be out there.’
Ueda hummed, tilting his head slightly to himself. ‘Shhh now, JaeJae. Now, what has you so riled? Tired of being in detention yet?’
‘Still treating me like your little brother?’ Jae feigned irritation, but affection was still strong in his tone. ‘What are you going to do when I start dating? Will I really have to leave the room so you can call in the others and give him the standard-issue “talk”, Ueda? That does get embarrassing, you know.’
‘If I were doing what I wanted, you’d be free already.’ The elder insisted in a growl. ‘I hate the idea of you caged, Pretty Jae.’
Jaejoong closed his eyes, leaning more firmly against the wall as he fought tears. ‘I missed that, you know.’
Ueda gentled, glancing to the side toward Jaejoong’s presence. ‘Missed what, little brother?’
‘You always being so protective of me, calling me silly names… I miss going out to clubs and dancing with you and the others and not having to worry about who would see us or what they would think.’ Jae laughed softly along their link as he glanced to the corner of the building, almost hoping he could see his longtime friend. ‘At least not worrying about them knowing we were Kin…’
‘That isn’t the only thing they guessed we were.’ Ueda teased, attention narrowing on movement about where he guessed the Korean Resistance Scouts to be. ‘Jaejoong… Are you going to come back to Japan with us when we break you out?’
Jae swallowed almost audibly, lashes parting as he fixed his gaze on the stars again. ‘I.. I don’t know, Ueda.’
Mutely Jaejoong shuddered at the instant rush of understanding that reached him. Ueda had always had a naturally soothing way about him, even on Jaejoong’s erratic and feral nature. Somehow it had been Ueda who had first gotten enough of a hold on him to be able to call him friend. Those days seemed so far away now, far enough that Jae would give anything to be back on the outside even if it was just to argue with his ‘brothers’.
‘I know he’s here, I know that’s why we can’t take you away, no matter how much we want to.’ The Japanese man sighed, shaking his head. ‘And I really wish you were free, Jae… I don’t like this, but I know why.’
‘Your ‘Knowing’ can be very inconvenient…’ Jae tried to smile. ‘But in this case, I guess it saves me some explaining that I’d rather not do anyway.’
‘Have you talked to him?’
Jaejoong shook his head, glad that SaeNa was distracted by speaking to another Technician that had just appeared. He wouldn’t have more than a few moments of leaning against this wall in peace, he was sure. It did vary from his normal routine.
‘I’ve seen him…’ Jae hedged, one hand rising to rub at his chest over his heart. ‘And… I, I called him today… Because it was so bad… But…’
Sorrow and soothing affection filled Ueda’s tone. ‘I’m sorry he didn’t answer you, Pretty Jae… But you know he really shouldn’t, not here.’
‘I just hope we get out before I need him to answer me, Ueda.’ Jae sighed. ‘I’m really tired of feeling like I’m losing my mind.’
Jin’s voice interrupted with mischievous affection. ‘You are losing your mind, little brother, but you’ve found your Soul… You have a little bit more time yet.’
‘So you and Kame finally bonded, did you?’ Jae didn’t have to feign exasperated amusement. ‘Good; that means I won the bet.’
‘YOU BET ON US?!’ Kamenashi was suddenly part of the conversation, tone filled with hissing demand.
Ueda sighed. ‘I had hoped that you would forget about that, Jaejoong.’
Sly amusement. ‘And pass up a once-in-a-lifetime chance to make money off something you can’t “Know”? Never.’
‘Annoying little brother…’
‘Yes… And now you can look forward to those two annoying you all the way back home.’
Ueda smiled sadly. ‘I missed your diabolical little plans, Jae…’
‘I’ll be out of here soon enough, and you’ll be sorry you ever said that.’
‘I hope I see that day, Brat.’
‘What happened to calling me Pretty!?’
