the beginning of all commotions [35/?]

Herakles gasped then, coughing up water, squirming weakly in his hold. Kiku felt a rush of relief, bringing his fingers to check the other man’s pulse. He couldn’t feel any yet and Herakles did not seem completely conscious or breathing well. So he lowered his lips to Herakles’ once more, breathing into his mouth… only to realise after several minutes that not only could he feel Herakles finally moving beneath him, but he could also feel a hand at the back of his head, fingers carding gently through his hair.

And that Herakles seemed to be kissing him, tongue flicking slowly over his lips and–

Ow,” Herakles gave a soft yelp of surprise just as Kiku jerked away stiffly, the two finally breaking apart. “Did you just pinch my nippl–”

“I… I’m glad you’re all right, Mister Karpusi.” Kiku said, rubbing the back of his hand over his lips in an awkward, near-mechanical manner, feeling his face grow warm as his cheeks coloured slightly.

Herakles chuckled, slowly sitting himself up. “Sadiq likes to call me the ‘stubborn mule’ who refuses to do him a favour by falling off a cliff and smashing my head into pulp at the bottom. Maybe the bastard has a point… uh, about the stubbornness, I mean. Not the mule.”

Kiku could only smile wanely at that, before turning his gaze back to scan the river once more.

“Do you think he’s…?” Herakles began.

“I’m not certain, but as I was unable to find any sign of him, we’ll have to assume he found a way to escape somehow.” Kiku frowned, pulling out the small blue box from his now-drenched coat. “And I think Yao will have a lot of explaining to do, starting with these.”

Just as he was about to place the box away, he heard what sounded like a soft click, and was momentarily, blinded by a bright flash.

‘The kiss of life: forbidden love unearthed in the unlikeliest of places.’” Liza murmured excitedly as she snapped several more photos of both Herakles and Kiku, who could only stare back at her, nonplussed. “You two do look good together in a shot. I’m really looking forward to the photoshoot, to say the least.”

Kiku blinked, lips parted mid-way as if he was on the verge of voicing his thoughts. Allowing himself a soft laugh instead, he flopped back to lie against the grass, wincing as the dull throbbing of his injuries and fatigue finally caught up with him.

“Are you all right? We should get you to a doctor; you’re still bleeding.” Herakles was leaning over him now, concern pooling within those green eyes (almost like the sea, flecks of blue and hazel visible in the sunlight… a-ah, he was being improper again wasn’t he, staring away like that–)

“No, I’m fine,” came Kiku’s soft, tired reply. “It’s just been a really long day. But thank you Mister Karpusi, and to you as well, Miss Héderváry, for everything.”

There were still questions swirling in his mind – the strange flames and creatures, the boxes... how did the man know his name, his father? – more so than when he’d first begun his mission.

But for now, the chase was over and he could rest a little, exhaustion steadily wearing him down as his vision began to grow dim and hazy.

“Kiku? Kiku!”

He would search for the answers another day.

A/N:

The Glock is a series of semi-automatic pistols. From what I’ve read, a Glock 18 pistol is not for sale to civilians, and is only available for use to the law enforcement, the military…. and well, organised crime syndicates, I suppose :/

The man Kiku was fighting atop the bridge top (AKA Mister Movie Villain) is Kusakabe Tetsuya, from Katekyo Hitman Reborn! (guess who’s a COMPLETE geek for that series?). And yes, that was Hibari he was talking to on the mobile :P

More information about Kusakabe here if you’re curious: http://reborn.wikia.com/wiki/Tetsuya_Kusakabe

The “strange” boxes and animals with flames are Box Weapons, specialised boxes that are build to carry weaponry, which comes mostly in form of armaments, although many are fashioned after animals. The flames serve as a direct power source and each Box Weapon Animal possesses its own unique abilities: http://reborn.wikia.com/wiki/Box_Weapons


Kusakabe’s battle cries are directly translated from English to Italian for the lulz:

Elettro Daga – Electro Daggers
Sciopero di Fulmine Celeste - Divine Lightning Strike
Danza Spirale di Morte – Spiral Dance of Death

It amuses me greatly whenever characters in Shounen Jump series always start a fight with a ferocious battle-cry, and helpfully announce their secret moves before attacking. Shounen wouldn’t be shounen otherwise, amirite? Lol.

The fight scenes were inspired mostly by this theme: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l8m990RzPn0

So this scene turned out much longer than I initially planned it to be and threw some logic out the window at the same time ^^; If you’ve been following this story since March, thank you for following through with this chase ♥ I have one final scene (the epilogue) to wrap up this story and to tie up some loose ends, which should be up later this weekend.

Wow, that fight was intense. I loved how everyone had a part to play (Elizabeta's comment about the photos and Kiku and Herakles' reactions made me laugh) and the mystery of the boxes.

Also, very nicely done when Kiku thought that Herakles might not be okay. I think that you did panic very well for someone like Kiku, who would normally remain quite calm and rational.

Herakles' sneaky kiss and Kiku's awkwardness afterwards was so brilliant. I love Greece/Japan awkward UST.

I can't believe that this is nearly over!
