CHAPTER FOUR
Author: Lady Jaya

:Sh'ten?:

:What is it now?:

:I think it might be smart to call in some back up to keep an eye on people, don't you think after all we can't be every where at the same time and I don't like the way some of these stupid people are watching us just like their waiting for a chance to do something that would ruin the plans.:

:Agreed. How about your demon friends.:

:I think they will do.:

:Well get them over there and make sure nothing happens before then.:

:Of course.:

Seiji watched Sh'ten as the red haired Masho leader standing near the front of the compartment, an angry scowl on his face. Seiji leaned back in his seat and waited to see what was going to happen as he let his mind wonder over what had just happened. How had it all come to this....?

He should have known that something was up. He should have recognize the touch of Anubis' mind in the back of his own. Or at least have recognized it before he did. ~idiotidiotidiotidio...~

~But why were they here? What were they up to this time?~ It had been a while since they had the fortune or misfortune of running into each other. The last time he'd seen Anubis had been almost too long ago to remember, yet it was so clear in his mind that he could almost imagine that he was back there that day instead of sitting here on an airplane that had just been taken over.

:Touma?: He directed his thought towards his blue haired friend... :What's happenings?:

:Did you know Anubis was here?:

:I found out the hard way.:

:I don't like this Seiji.:

:Neither do I.: Seiji replied as Sh'ten turned his head to look at him. :What's happening with the others?:

:Not sure.:

:We got Rajura back here.: Put in Shu.

:I'm going to seriously hurt that basterd if he doesn't get away from me!: growled Ryo his anger apparent to all of them.

:What happened?: Asked Shu with a hint of amusement despite the situation.

:Calm down Ryo.: Shin spoke up. :Drop it Shu.:

:Ooo! But I wanna know!:

:What were you and Shin kickin it in the back of the plane?: Touma asked with a mental chuckle....there was an uncomfortable pause....

:You were weren't you.: Touma laughed out right and Seiji rolled his eyes while Shu's surprise touched them all.

:Yes.: Ryo spat.

:Oh man.: Touma thought. :You sure can pick a place Ryo!:

:It was his idea.: Muttered Shin and Ryo threw him a glare over his shoulder.

:So what's so wrong less...: Shu paused. :Oh my god don't tell me Naaza walked in on you?:

:Yes.: Shin answered putting a hand on Ryo's shoulder.

Touma laughed. :Shit way to go Ryo.:

:I don't know what to say.: Muttered Shu... :Cept get up here I'm really starting to get tired of One eye over here.:

:Seiji?:

:What?:

:I think Anubis is up to something.:

:What else is new.:

:Can we please KICK ASS?: Shu cut in.

:Hostages.: Shin said.

:Not with all these people.: Ryo agreed trying to think through the red haze that had clouded his mind.

:Shit.: ...pause... :Then what are we going to do.:

:Wait.: thought Seiji with his quiet logic.

:I wanna know what they're up to.: Touma wondered half to himself half to them all. :They wouldn't have gone through the trouble of hijacking the damn plane if they weren't up to something.:

:Touma's got a point.: Shu thought nodding absently.

:Keep your eyes open.: Shin sighed fixing a glare at the back of Ryo's head. :I think we should wait and see how things play out for now. ....okay.....??

:Anubis?:

:What is it Naaza?:

:Trade me hostages. I'll keep the brat with the others.:

:No I think it would be better keep the kid separate don't want them to get any ideas.:

:True. What do I do with the girl?:

:Beats me.:

:Anubis?: Sh'ten cut in.

:What?:

:Bring her up here with the kid, and your two little projects.: ...pause...

:Okay.:

:Why don't we just get ride of all the damn people?: Rajura asked.

:Then what's to stop the Troopers from taking us on even if they would loose?: Sh'ten wanted to know.

:So we keep a few hostages to keep them in line.: Suggested Anubis after a second.

:That might work.: Naaza cut in. :A few more fuck toys just what we need around here.:

:That's not what I meant.: muttered Anubis. :What Rajura not good enough for you?:

: Hey!: pause :Where do we send all the people?: Rajura said trying to get them back on track.

Naaza laughed. :Maybe I haven't tired him out in a while.:

:Some place below?:

:I think we can do it if we work together.:

:How many are we keeping?: Anubis cut in with a half grin.

:Five: Came Sh'tens concise answer.

:I want the red head.: Naaza stated.

:I have the dark haired one up here.: Sh'ten said. :Three more.:

:Just pick three.: Rajura said meaning Sh'ten.

:Age might be a good consideration as well.: advised Anubis.

:Young or old?: Naaza asked with a snicker.

:Get your mind out of the gutter.: Muttered Sh'ten. :Done now get your ass to work.:

:Touchy Touchy.:

:Shut up:

:o.O;; Make me!:

:Just get these damn people out of here so we can get down to business.:

:Oh ya.: laughed Anubis with an evil grin.

:Pervert:

:Look who's talking.:

:ENOUGH!!!!: ....... silence .......

Seiji's head shot up as the curtain opened behind him and Anubis came through with Touma in front of him. Seiji met his blue haired friends gaze as Anubis gave him a push.

"Shit down and keep your trap shut." Growled Anubis dragging Jun up the isle with him. :Where are we keeping the hostages?: He asked Sh'ten deciding it would be better then to say it out loud.

:Near the Cock pit for now.: Replied Sh'ten put the boy with the dark haired girl. :Naaza if you want the damn red head you'd better get her up here.:

:Rajura's on his way.:

:k.: Sh'ten turned to Anubis. :We need three more.:

:So let's pick.: Anubis thought back as he shoved Jun to the ground near the neatly trussed up dark haired girl how glanced at him with fear and anger in her dark eyes as the little boy crawled over to her.

:Then come on.:

:Coming.: Anubis turned away from them with an evilgrin and stepped back into the cabin his eyes scanning the faces and the heads of the people who were seated in their seats looking nervous. Then his eyes lighted on a dark blue head near the back and he caught the defiant eyes of the girl to whom the dark hair belonged to. She glared at him and he could see the anger that was in their depths. He grinned and pointed to her letting Sh'ten follow his gaze.

"Hey girl." He said moving down the isle a little ways. "Come here."

"No."

"I said come here." He growled eyes flashing in anger.

"And I said no." She replied standing up and stepping out into the isle her eyes flashing as she brushed a strange of dark midnight blue hair out of her face and glared at him.

"Come on bitch." He spat grabbing her arm and pulling her after him.

:Are you sure Anubis?: Sh'ten questioned him. :She's rather feisty:

:All the better.:

:Ok.:

"LET GO OF ME!"

:Seiji.: warned Touma quietly putting a hand on his friends shoulder.

:Touma we can't ju....:

:What's going on up there?:

:Shit what else.: Touma thought back with a growl not moving his hand from Seiji's shoulder though they both felt the fire that raced through them at the simple touch.

"Shut the fuck up." Snapped Anubis back handing her. Slowly she turned back to him with gritted teeth and an angry growl. But though she didn't resist this time he could feel the tension in her body, and see the anger in her eyes whenever he glanced at her out of the corner of his eye.

"Having fun?" Taunted Rajura as he pushed through the curtain with Jaya who didn't look much nicer then the blue haired girl.

"Shut your hole." Muttered Anubis throwing a glare over his shoulder at the white haired Masho. But Rajura just grinned back at him and shrugged his shoulders.

"Okay." Sh'ten stepped forward searching those gathered and then pointed to a dark haired boy of about ten in the back, and a brown head of around seventeen just by looks. "You two come up here now." He ordered. There was a stir as the two slowly stood up and started to come forward but this time Touma couldn't keep Seiji in his seat as he stood up his violet eyes flashing.

"Sit down Date." Spat Sh'ten turning his gaze on the blond swords man. "You and your blue haired friend will get your turns." There were nasty implications in his words and both Seiji and Touma knew it...

:Okay.: Sh'ten said as Anubis and Rajura came back from depositing the hostages and the other two were taken care of. :Let's get ride of the rest of the people.

:What women and children first?: laughed Anubis.

:How about all hot young men?: Naaza asked.

:Why don't we just throw you out the door.: Mused Rajura.

:How about we just shut the fuck up and get moving.: growled Sh'ten.

:You know he does have a point?:

:Wow that's a first.:

:Idiots!:

:Thank you.:

:You all read?: Rajura asked finally.

:Let's get this over with.: Anubis said. :I'm ready to get onto other things.:

:I bet you are.: muttered Naaza. :Onto namely some blue haired archer, who just happened to have stolen the heart of your one and only love, the loveable Seiji Date.:

:You cant' say anything.: Anubis growled back. :Your the one who fucks anything and everyone just for the hell of it.:

:Hey.: spat Naaza. :I do not.:

:Um actually Naaza-kun....: Rajura started and then stopped. :Let's just get on with it.:

:Thank.: muttered Sh'ten. :Maybe there's some hope for you numbskulls yet...:

Shu glanced over at Ryo who was sitting in the set next to him with a shiver. Something was up he could feel it but from the look on Ryo's face the only thing was feeling was pent up anger. He turned his gaze towards Nasuti and Shin who were sitting right behind them sifting only slightly in his seat so that he could see them.

:Some things up.: Shin thought quietly.

:Hai.: Agreed Shu.

:What?:

:That I don't know.:

:Their doing something.: Seiji offered. :Teleporting something I think.:

:What?: again.

:The plane?: asked Shin.

:No.: disagreed Seiji. :Not even all of them together could do that.:

:You hope not.: Muttered Touma.

:Then what?:

:SHUT THE FUCK UP!: growled Ryo suddenly cutting into their conversation. :Look....: Suddenly they noticed that the people on the plane were slowly fading in and out and then all together they vanished.

:What the hell?:

:They teleported all the people somewhere.: Shin thought.

:Not all.: Touma replied.

:They've got Jun and five others near the cock pit.: added Seiji.

:Shit.: Ryo thought with vehnomence.

:Done.: Anubis said with a little grin.

:Now get your ass out of here and do your little jig.: Sh'ten growled glowering at the blued haired warrior from under heavy dark red brows.

Naaza laughed. :Can I watch?: he paused. :I'm brining the others up.:

:K.: replied Sh'ten as Anubis headed towards Seiji and Touma ignoring Naaza's comment. :Rajura bring the hostages up and put them over there.: He waved towards one side of the plane.

:Alright.:

"Get up." Ordered Anubis in a low voice with an evil little grin on his face.

"Why?" Touma asked glaring at him.

"Because I told you to." Retorted Anubis glaring back at him.

"What do you want Anubis?" Seiji said in a low voice as he stood up and looked the dark blue haired man in the eyes.

"You'll see Seiji-kun." Anubis said. "Now I suggest you move... I don't want to have to hurt anyone...."

"Liar." Hissed Touma as he slipped out past Seiji and into the isle.

"Just move." Seiji paused and then stepped out behind Touma, his jaw clenched in anger and his violet eyes flashing Anubis presents all too clear behind him.

They made their way towards the front of the plane and then up the curved stairs to the upper deck as Anubis directed with a sinking feeling...
