Whispers in the Dark, Part 3 A Side Story by MokonaChiirushia and Hokuto Kuzuki *It has been a long, cold night full of screaming nightmares for Bob, a long, full night of clubbing for Joker, and a long, sleepless (not like he notices), busy night for Tetsuya. In the morning, when Bob doesn't show up, someone immediately notices and alerts Joker, who in turn alerts Tetsuya.* Tetsuya: *thinks about what needs to be done* Tetsuya: *doesn't want to go himself, but isn't keen about letting anyone else in the organization - not even Joker - know where he sleeps, though he only sleeps there rarely anyway* Tetsuya: *finally just does go himself, leaving Joker in charge; goes to the apartment and knocks on the door* Sailor Bob: *is lying, paralyzed and beyond hearing, on bed* Tetsuya: *knocks again* Excuse me? Are you there? Sailor Bob: *is lying in a tightly curled ball, his hands over his ears and his eyes open, his mouth open, like he's screaming silently* Tetsuya: *opens the door and goes in* Tetsuya: *freezes* Tetsuya: Bob-san? Sailor Bob: *rolls up into a tighter ball, closes his eyes and starts sobbing* Tetsuya: What's wrong? *stands by the bed, seriously alarmed* Did something... Sailor Bob: *is too busy sobbing, doesn't even hear him* Tetsuya: *half-kneels by the bed, takes Sailor Bob's shoulders* Wake up! What's wrong? Tetsuya: *thinks about the kind of people who live in the crackhouse and what they'd make of a pretty young man* Did someone - break in and...? Sailor Bob: *finally manages to get a tentative control of himself, notices someone else is in the room, attaches to Tetsuya and sobs some more, in relief more than anything else* Tetsuya: !.! *does not try to detach Sailor Bob, but doesn't exactly snuggle back, either* Sailor Bob: *isn't snuggling, but is so incredibly relieved to see another human being that he can't even speak* Tetsuya: *still letting Sailor Bob hang onto him, which is a major feat for Tetsuya* What happened? Tetsuya: *idiotically* You didn't come to work this morning... Sailor Bob: *manages to get a tentative hold on himself again* Nightmares... Sailor Bob: Horrible... Sailor Bob: Torture... Tetsuya: 0.0 Tetsuya: But - why? Sailor Bob: *shudders* Lonely... Tetsuya: *gingerly, puts one arm around Sailor Bob* I'm sorry... Tetsuya: I - I should have realized... Sailor Bob: *shudders again, starts to cry, not sobbing as much as heartbreaking little whimpers* Tetsuya: *sighs, wondering how he gets himself into these things, and puts both arms around Sailor Bob; incredibly uncomfortable, but also feeling guilty enough not to care* Tetsuya: Ssh... ssh... Sailor Bob: *is comforted, but mainly just because there's another person with him, especially one he's familiar with* Tetsuya: Ssh... it's all right... *tries to remember things he used to say to Esther when she was upset* It will be all right... I promise... Tetsuya Nothing bad is happening... don't worry about it... *wishes it didn't sound like such an obvious lie* Sailor Bob: *is much more comforted, finally falls asleep in Tetsuya's arms* Tetsuya: *sighs and manages to put Sailor Bob back on the bed; turns to go back to the restaurant and find a substitute errand-boy* Sailor Bob: *starts talking in his sleep again, but this time, things are different* Sailor Bob: Blood... Sailor Bob: Kaasan... Blood... Tetsuya: *heaves another sigh, sits down by the bed and starts taking notes; is beginning to wonder why he ever thought this was a good idea* Sailor Bob: Kaasan... Doushite...? Sailor Bob: Blood... All over... Tetsuya: *notes this with clinical detachment; is quite familiar with blood, is often the cause of it flowing* Sailor Bob: *curls into ball* Blood... everywhere... Kaasan... Kaasan...! Tetsuya: *puts a hand on Sailor Bob's shoulder again* Ssh... it's not real. It's only a dream... just a dream... Sailor Bob: *sniffles* Kaasan... Sailor Bob: *quiets and sleeps* Tetsuya: *quietly makes a call to the restaurant and leaves Joker in charge, saying that it will be good practice in case Joker ever needs to take over; Joker is NOT amused* Tetsuya: *stays sitting beside the bed, thinking about lots and lots of different things* Sailor Bob: *sleeps* Tetsuya: *eventually sleeps a little himself, quietly but not well* *Fade to the morning after that one; Tetsuya is still sitting by the bed, not sleeping but still not visibly tired. Sailor Bob is still asleep.* Tetsuya: *beginning to feel the incredible pangs of guilt he gets whenever he ignores the organization and its needs a little too much* Sailor Bob: *wakes up, notices Tetsuya* ?.# Tetsuya: *sounding sharper than he intends because of the guilt* Feeling better now? You've slept for an entire day. Sailor Bob: *winces* I'm sorry... Tetsuya: *modulates tone somewhat* It's fine. Are you feeling any better? Sailor Bob: *nods* Yes, much... Tetsuya: Good. Tetsuya: Can you work? Sailor Bob: *nods* Tetsuya: *stands up and dusts off his suit* Let's go, then. Sailor Bob: *nods, follows* Tetsuya: *leads Sailor Bob back to the restaurant, where they split up and go to their separate working areas* Sailor Bob: *looking kind of frazzled, is very quiet as he works* Joker: *looking very frazzled himself, is mooching comfort food off the kitchen staff and receiving it in abundance* Joker: *stands and eats next to Sailor Bob* So, what happened with you? You look as bad as I feel. Sailor Bob: *looks at his feet* I had... nightmares... Joker: 0.0 You must dream in four-d Technicolor with SurroundSound, then. Sailor Bob: *continues looking at the ground, silent* Joker: *sensing awkward silence* Sorry... Joker: Bit on edge myself, I guess. What with the boss taking off like that... @.@ Sailor Bob: *feels incredibly guilty about that* Joker: Oh, well - everyone's entitled to a break once in a while, and God knows I've never seen him take one, so it was probably well deserved. Joker: *is kind of wondering exactly what Sailor Bob and Tetsuya did that whole time, but isn't going to ask; slightly afraid of the answer or that he'll be overheard* Sailor Bob: Yeah... *continues washing dishes dejectedly* Joker: *can take a hint, goes away to eat comfort food elsewhere* Attractive Young Woman: *comes into the restaurant, is shown to a table for two* Thank you. Do you have a wild card? Hostess: It depends. Are you a Catholic? Young Woman: Let me get my rosary. Hostess: *nods* One moment, miss. Hostess: *goes into kitchen to get Joker* There's a young lady to see you, Joker. She knew the right words. Joker: *through full mouth* Gotcha. Be there in a minute. Sailor Bob: *looks up as Joker walks away, wishes he could talk to him the way he has been* Sailor Bob: *sighs and goes back to washing dishes* Joker: *sits down in front of the young lady* You have business with me? Young Woman: I was informed of a young man that was hired here. He has long brown hair and an eyepatch. Joker: *on guard instantly, since enquiries about personnel are NEVER good* I might know someone like that... what would you want him for? Young Woman: I would like to speak to him. Joker: About what? Young Woman: A personal matter. I won't harm him, I assure you. Joker: *has one last teeny question* You wouldn't happen to be a relation, would you? Joker: *is getting a little intrigued about Sailor Bob's family, since he seems to be an inextricable part of it* Young Woman: I'm not directly related to him, no... Joker: Well, I'll see if I can find him. *goes back into the kitchen and finds Sailor Bob* Joker: Hey, there's a girl to see you. She says she's not a direct relative, and she wants to talk to you about a personal matter... Sailor Bob: I... I don't know any girls... Joker: Me, neither, really. It's up to you if you want to talk with her. Sailor Bob: I guess, if she's asking for me... Sailor Bob: *wipes the soap suds off his hands* Joker: *goes upstairs and tells the boss what's going on* Young Woman: *waits patiently* Tetsuya: *comes and down hangs out unobtrusively at the back of the restaurant, where Bob and the girl can't see him but he can hear what's going on* Sailor Bob: *steps out of kitchen, discreetly and politely asks hostess where the woman is* Hostess: *points the girl out* Sailor Bob: O.# Young Woman: *catches site of Bob* Juugo-san... *calls him this because he's prisoner number fifteen at their particular government facility* Sailor Bob: *eye stays widened, and he starts backing away as she comes closer* No... Stay away...! Tetsuya: ?.? *listens closely* Young Woman: But we miss you so much, Juugo-san... Why did you deprive us of your company? Sailor Bob: *continues backing away* No...! You want to hurt me...! You want to make me hurt people again...! Tetsuya: *thinks he might need to intervene soon, moves closer; "accidentally" becomes visible to Sailor Bob, but not the woman* Sailor Bob: *doesn't notice Tetsuya, is too busy being terrified of the woman* Young Woman: But surely you understand. The experiments are to benefit mankind as a whole. Tetsuya: *unable to help himself, sniggers* Young Woman: Besides, it was an accident. Young Woman: An error in the hypothesis. Young Woman: We will not make that mistake again. Come back, Juugo-san. Sailor Bob: *is backed against the wall* No... Don't make me remember... Young Woman: Next time, we won't let them have a gun. Sailor Bob: *puts his hands over his ears, closes his eyes and shakes his head* No...! Stop it...! Tetsuya: *steps up to the woman at this point, furious and therefore looking completely cold and emotionless* I beg your pardon, but you are not taking him anywhere he does not want to go. Young Woman: *looks over at Tetsuya* It's our right. He's our property. Tetsuya: *almost spitting out the words* He - is - no one's - property. Tetsuya: He is, however, a member of my organization. He will leave it ONLY if he wishes to. Sailor Bob: *has curled into a little ball again, quietly sobbing* Tetsuya: *has the rosary clenched tightly in his fists, the beads slipping back and forth again* Young Woman: *glares at Tetsuya* Fine. I will come back to settle this. *leaves* Tetsuya: *nearly stalks over to Sailor Bob with raised hackles* Tetsuya: Are you all right? Sailor Bob: *continues sobbing, hands tightly clenched over ears* Tetsuya: *forces himself to relax and put the rosary away, kneels beside Sailor Bob* Bob-san? Are you all right? Tetsuya: *puts one hand on Sailor Bob's shoulder, acutely conscious that EVERY SINGLE PERSON IN THE ENTIRE RESTAURANT IF NOT THE WORLD is looking at them* Sailor Bob: *feels hand, opens his eyes and looks up, face tear-streaked and eyes full of tears* Tetsuya: Is everything all right? *doesn't think it would be a good idea to ask what that whole scene was about just yet* Sailor Bob: *glomps Tetsuya, feels very scared* ;.#!!! Tetsuya: *glares very hard at all the staring people in the restaurant, so hard that all of them look away and many of them start asking for the check; helps Sailor Bob stand up and tries to detach him* Sailor Bob: *realizes he's embarrassing Tetsuya, detaches and looks at his feet* 6.# Tetsuya: *sighs* Do you want to go back to work? Sailor Bob: *nods quickly, doesn't want to become a nuisance* Sailor Bob: *teleports back to kitchen, trying to save Tetsuya any more embarrassment of being seen with him* Tetsuya: *puts one hand to his forehead as if he has a headache, goes back up to his office to keep working* Sailor Bob: *is downcast for the rest of the day, hopes Joker didn't see that, or if he did, that he didn't come to the wrong conclusion* Joker: *didn't see a thing; does spend a fair amount of his free time trying to cheer Sailor Bob up* Sailor Bob: *tries his best, just to make Joker happy; smiles a couple of times, but they're all sad, wistful smiles* Joker: *slightly bothered, since the girl got through using HIS code words; wonders who the hell she was anyway* Tetsuya: *at the end of the day, when he should be staying and working, goes down to the kitchens instead* Tetsuya: *stops by where Sailor Bob is working* Ready to go? Sailor Bob: *was talking with Joker, stops and takes off apron* Hai! Sailor Bob: *waves good-bye to Joker, and follows Tetsuya off* Tetsuya: *behaves as if the whole "making a map, bad nightmares, and sleeping for two days straight" thing didn't happen* Sailor Bob: *decides that's as good a plan as any, does the same* Joker: *meows slightly to himself, jealous, but goes to take care of things - again* *Fade to a few days later. Nothing out of the ordinary has happened since the young woman came to the restaurant, and Bob has once again become his genki, hyper self. He continues having conversations with Joker during his breaks, mostly about this and that, nothing in particular. Tetsuya has remained mostly in his office, trying to get everyone to forget about what happened in the restaurant.* Tetsuya: *succeeds only because he shows the rosary off frequently, and most people have a fair idea what that rosary is good for and what he does with it* Joker: *is happily oblivious to all rumors* *In the middle of one of Joker and Bob's conversations, two young men appear at the door. They ask for a table for three.* Hostess: *shows them to a table and asks if they're waiting for their third party* Young Men: *say no and ask for Joker, using the code words* Hostess: *having been warned, adds another question* Ever gone sailing? It's nice weather for it now. Gov. Op. 1: *thrown off balance* Uh... Can't say that I have. Hostess: I see. *makes notes on pad, goes back into kitchen* Gov. Op. 2: *looks at #1, wonders what to say* Operative 1: *shrugs at second operative* Hey, I never heard of that part. They didn't include it in the briefing. Hostess: *finds Joker mooching food as usual* Joker-san, there are two men out in the front. They asked for you and got the first part right, but not the second half. What do you think should be done? Joker: *thinks* Let the boss handle it. This whole thing is his stupid idea in the first place. Joker: *goes and tells Tetsuya, who sits down at the table with the two men* Operative 2: *is new, decides to let #1 do the talking* Tetsuya: What did you wish to talk about? Operative 1: Are you Joker? Tetsuya: No. But I am authorized to speak on his behalf. Operative 1: *isn't sure who this person is, and not ready to talk yet; was told to speak only to Joker, as he ranks highest next to the boss and the boss is STRICTLY off-limits as being too dangerous* Operative 1: *leans back in his chair a little and orders tea* Sure about that? I've heard that structure can be a little - fluid - around here. Tetsuya: I am certain. Operative 1: Well, then, if you're CERTAIN... *sounds slightly sarcastic* Tetsuya: -.- *pushes around rosary beads, prompting another round of calls for checks* Operative 1: *senses tension, eases up* Well, my friend and I had a few questions for him. About some friends of his. Tetsuya: *relaxes slightly, thinking that Joker has probably just started spending a little too long in clubs trying to relax and that this is somehow related to one of his boyfriends* Tetsuya: You may ask what you wish, but I cannot promise an answer. Operative 1: *winks* I understand perfectly. Operative 2: *sitting there, taking it all in* Operative 1: *asks a few harmless questions about Joker's boyfriend who dumped him in the middle of the restaurant at the beginning of the story, then about another person Joker hung around with later* Tetsuya: *answers to the best of his ability, which is surprisingly good considering he supposedly doesn't care what anyone's love life is like* Operative 1: *in the midst of the innocent questions about former boyfriends, mentions that one of the people in question had long brown hair and an eyepatch* Tetsuya: *freezes, understanding instantly* Tetsuya: I have not seen or heard of such a person. Operative 1: *gets suspicious at the sudden freezeout, even though Tetsuya's expression has remained mostly unreadable* Operative 1: Are you sure? I've heard things, very reliable... Tetsuya: I am completely certain. Operative 2: *narrows his eyes* Interesting restaurant you have here... Tetsuya: *startled at sudden change of topics, but gives no sign of it* Tetsuya: Thank you. Operative 2: There have been - lots of rumors about it recently. Operative 2: About it being - connected - to a local organization. Tetsuya: *eyes narrow fractionally* Really? Operative 1: *keeps quiet and lets his partner play bad cop* Operative 2: A local organization that has... many connections. Operative 2: Some weaker than others. Operative 2: *Has been picking at his nails through this entire monologue, sounding bored and not looking at Tetsuya. Now looks towards him, to see his reaction.* Operative 2: *and if he gets his drift* Tetsuya: *is no longer playing with the rosary, because he's gripping it too tightly and the string is bared, ready for action* Tetsuya: *quietly, but with great force and with his eyes almost literally burning* Get. Out. Now. Tetsuya: You have no protection here. Get out before I do something that other people will regret. Operative 1: *gulps, realizing that they just might have accidentally threatened - the boss* Operative 2: !.! *is gone, dragging other operative with him* Operative 2: *is more easily frightened than the other operative* Tetsuya: *sits at the table for several minutes, just trying to calm down; looks up and sees that no one is left in the restaurant other than the people who are paid to work there* Tetsuya: *gets up and goes into the kitchen; quietly tells the gist of what happened to Joker, also tells him to get information on this organization and put a bounty on the guys and the girl from earlier* Tetsuya: *then goes back up to his office* Sailor Bob: *Was washing dishes when Tetsuya did this. Always seems to be washing dishes during important parts.* Joker: *sighs* Good grief - this is REALLY getting to the boss... Sailor Bob: *finishes, goes over to chat with Joker some more* Joker: I don't even remember the last time someone tried to threaten him about us, but I think the guy ended up spending lots of quality time with chickenwire... *notices Bob* Hey, there. Sailor Bob: ?.# Chickenwire? Joker: Don't ask. It's not the kind of thing you should know about us. Joker: *sighs again* I hope you're worth this much trouble, kid... Sailor Bob: 6.# *looks and feels guilty* I'm sorry... I didn't know I was so troublesome... *indulges in heartbreaking sigh* Joker: 0.0! *pats him on the shoulder* Geez, Bob, I didn't mean it like that... Joker: It's just - things have been kinda crazy since you showed up, and now with these weirdoes coming around and asking about you and talking about going after the rest of the organization... Sailor Bob: O.# Sailor Bob: W- weirdoes...?! Joker: Geep! *shuts mouth, afraid he's said too much about the organization, since Sailor Bob doesn't know what Tetsuya's real business is* Sailor Bob: *latches onto the word weirdoes* Weirdoes... How? Joker: Just - people. *keeps mouth shut* Sailor Bob: *looks suspicious* Joker: *abruptly* Well, gotta go take care of business. See ya later. *leaves* Sailor Bob: *is left alone, looks dejected* I'm... troublesome... Sailor Bob: *is depressed for the rest of the day, preferring to look at his shoes rather than at a person when they talk to him* Sailor Bob: *decides he's too much trouble to be worth it* Sailor Bob: *near the end of the day, just before Tetsuya normally picks him up, he bids the cook farewell and quietly leaves the restaurant* Sailor Bob: *has no idea about anything in this city, so just heads in an opposite direction from the way he normally goes to get to the apartment* Tetsuya: *comes down, doesn't see Sailor Bob in the kitchen* ?.? Tetsuya: *asks the head cook* Tetsuya: *hearing that Sailor Bob left early, at first doesn't worry; assumes that Bob has the map and just got tired or something, heads back to the apartment* Tetsuya: *doesn't find Bob there, starts to worry* *It starts to rain, but Bob keeps going. He supposes he'll probably be able to find SOMEPLACE to sleep...* Sailor Bob: *doesn't realize he's getting farther and farther into the slums of Tokyo...* Tetsuya: *looks at empty apartment, at rain; goes back and forth several times before sighing irritably and setting out to look for Sailor Bob* Tetsuya: *knowing how the streets happen to lead people right into the worst parts of Tokyo, heads in that direction and begins searching; gets wetter and wetter, since of course he would never think of wearing a raincoat or getting an umbrella or something* Sailor Bob: *takes shelter in an alley with an overhang, sits down and shivers* Sailor Bob: *notices a poor shivering cat, tries to be kind to it, and it hisses and scratches him* ;.#! Sailor Bob: *sucks on his shredded finger, in an attempt to get it to stop bleeding, doesn't notice when a shadow falls over him* Tetsuya: *walks purposefully through all the slums of Tokyo, noting everything but not seeing Sailor Bob; getting a twinge in his heart every time he sees a figure on the street that isn't Bob* Guy #1: *kneels down in front of Bob* My, my... You are certainly pretty... *is rather pretty himself, in the typical, bishounen way* Sailor Bob: *looks up, had started crying when they arrived* ;.#? Guy 1: *hugs Bob and purrs in his ear* Would you like to have a good time with me...? Sailor Bob: !.# Sailor Bob: *notices two big, brawny guys over the pretty guy's shoulder* !!.#! Guy 1: *senses his reluctance* Come on... It'll be fun... I promise. Tetsuya: *mercifully is nearing this particular alley; however, does not yet sense the ominous foreshadowing in the air* Sailor Bob: *tries to push him away* I'm sorry, sir, but I - Guy 1: *cuts him off by tightening his hold on him* I don't think you understand... That wasn't a question...! Sailor Bob: !.# Guy 1: *hidden knife comes out of his sleeve and he presses it to Bob's back* Come on, sweetheart. Guy 1: Don't make me do something we'll both regret...! Sailor Bob: N- no!!! Tetsuya: *finally picks up on the danger rays, picks up his pace and heads quickly towards the alley* Guy 1: *presses his knife into Sailor Bob's back, cutting his clothing and touching his skin* I'm only going to warn you once more... Sailor Bob: *closes his eyes, one last tear sliding down his cheek* Sailor Bob: N... NO! Guy 1: *growls and prepares to use his knife* Tetsuya: *enters the alley and sees what's going on immediately* STOP RIGHT NOW! Guy 1: *Looks up, keeping the knife in the same position. Doesn't recognize Tetsuya, of course.* Why should I? Sailor Bob: *opens his eye when he recognizes Tetsuya's voice* Tetsuya: *doesn't even bother answering that; just moves in and starts disarming and incapacitating the guys, moving so fast he's barely visible* Guy 1: *eyes widen* What the...?! Guy 1: *loses interest in Bob, brings the knife up to protect himself* Sailor Bob: *huddles where he was left* Tetsuya: *takes the knife in an eyeblink, then sterilizes the guy and breaks both of his arms, plus his wrist* Guy 1: O.O!! *falls into little heap on the ground, bleeding profusely* Sailor Bob: *is splashed with blood, starts to cry again* Tetsuya: *after making sure all the other people are down for the count, turns to Sailor Bob* Are you all right? They didn't... Sailor Bob: *looks up, face once again streaked with tears, and shakes his head* N- no... Tetsuya: *helps him stand up* What made you run off like that? I couldn't find you - if I hadn't gotten here... Tetsuya: And now you're soaking wet, too. *ignores the fact that he's just as wet* Sailor Bob: *Is kind of embarrassed at this kinda-sorta show of affection. Looks at his feet.* I'm... troublesome... Tetsuya: Where did you hear that? *starts taking him back to the apartment, glaring at passers-by who try to stare at the two of them* Sailor Bob: Joker-san said something about it... Sailor Bob: He said... "I hope you're worth this much trouble." Tetsuya: *carefully keeping a level tone of voice* Joker often complains. He rarely means what he says. Sailor Bob: But I have been very troublesome... Tetsuya: *almost says, "Well, yes, as a matter of fact;" doesn't* Tetsuya: *instead says* Things have been rather interesting lately. Sailor Bob: 6.# And it's my fault... Tetsuya: *quite unexpectedly* Interesting is not a problem. Sailor Bob: ?.# Tetsuya: *surprised even himself with that one* Sailor Bob: *blushes, then looks at his feet again* I've kept you from working... And people have come to "visit" me... *shudders* Tetsuya: It does Joker good to work a little extra. He can be very lazy. Sailor Bob: And you've been too kind to me, and it's very awful of me to repay you like this... Tetsuya: It isn't a problem. I have dealt with more troublesome ones before. Sailor Bob: I should just take what you have paid me and leave... Find somewhere else where I won't be troublesome... Tetsuya: You aren't troublesome. Relax. *is a fine one to talk about THAT* Tetsuya: *has reached the apartment* Here. Tetsuya: *unlocks the door and pushes Sailor Bob in* You need to shower, and I'll get rid of these clothes. Sailor Bob: *Is pushed, decides to give up for now and run away some other time. Goes to take a shower.* Tetsuya: *disposes of the clothes, gets new ones for both of them since his are bloody, too* Tetsuya: *waits outside the apartment for Bob to finish* Sailor Bob: *finishes quickly and puts clothes on, then sits on bed* Tetsuya: *comes back in, already changed and looking perfectly normal, though his hair is still fairly wet* Tetsuya: I can't stay here tonight. I have too much to do. Tetsuya: Can you manage on your own? Sailor Bob: *is rather afraid at the prospect of being alone, but nods bravely, even though it's kind of obvious that he's lying* Tetsuya: Sure? Sailor Bob: *shakes his head* Tetsuya: *slumps slightly* I really can't stay... Sailor Bob: *is upset at upsetting Tetsuya* I will be okay... Tetsuya: If you're certain... Sailor Bob: *is not certain, but lies through his teeth and nods* Tetsuya: Fine. *hesitates, then adds* Good night, and sleep well. Tetsuya: *leaves* Sailor Bob: *is left* Sailor Bob: *As soon as he lies down on the bed, he starts to feel the pressing loneliness again...* Sailor Bob: *But he pushes it away. He promised Tetsuya, so he's going to make it through the night and wake up in the morning.* Tetsuya: *is waiting outside the door, just for a few minutes, just to make sure; after not hearing anything, leaves for real* Tetsuya: *has a lot of - business - to take care of* Sailor Bob: *Falls asleep, and, but for a few nocturnal mumblings, makes it through the night.* *End Part 3.* Credits: Tetsuya: Hokuto Kuzuki Sailor Bob: MokonaChiirushia Joker: Hokuto Kuzuki Young Woman: MokonaChiirushia Operative 1: Hokuto Kuzuki Operative 2: MokonaChiirushia Hostess: Hokuto Kuzuki Guy 1: MokonaChiirushia Note: We are evil, EVIL people.
