006. [ RL with Haruhi and Michael-- it's sleuthing time ]

[trinities]

[ Michael and Nena had returned to Cross's house to search for anything that would help against akuma or help to figure out what had happened to him; they'd made their way to the study once Haruhi arrived and were standing outside the door ]

Let's break the door down!

Of course. So he definitely knows how to fight them.

[To himself]

Obviously not well enough.

[He sits down heavily on the chair by the desk]

Do you think he's left, like, a list or something of all the worlds he visited? Or the worlds he was gonna visit? That'd be really helpful right about now.

[trinities]

You shut up! [ smacks again, and starts looking through more papers ]

There's all sorts of weird notes here... if there's a list, it's bound to be here somewhere.

[godisagirl.livejournal.com]

[starts rifling really fast, looking excited]

And once we have the list we can go to all those worlds in the TARDIS and find him!

[Luckily for them, there's a loud clang and a hidden door opens. Cross barely makes it through, clothes torn. Maria appears by his side, as always. The corpse doll's hand on his face]

He was funny until he wrecked my clothes, then the bastard had to pay.

[saying it to Maria, but he hasn't noticed everyone else yet. Mask completely visible for once]

[bare-my-fangs.livejournal.com]

[His head whips round as soon as he hears the sound, and he pulls his knife out, moving to protect Nena before he even sees what's causing the noise.]

What the--

[His eyes widen when he sees it's Cross. They widen further when he sees what's left of his clothes.]

Fuck dad, there are some things that I just don't need to see.

[trinities]

[ turns around with a gasp, then pushes herself past Michael and flings herself at Cross ]

You're alive, you really are!

[godisagirl.livejournal.com]

[is almost in too much shock and relief to move]

You're alive.

[breakhisknees.livejournal.com]

[Looking down at the loli that is currently clinging onto him. Putting a hand on Nena's head]

Yeah, of course I'm alive.

[bare-my-fangs.livejournal.com]

[crosses his arms over his chest looking very annoyed]

What do you mean 'Yeah, of course I'm alive'? You led everyone to believe you were dead, asshole.

[trinities]

Yeah, exactly! You made everyone believe you were dead, asshole!

[ but not letting go :| ]

[godisagirl.livejournal.com]

You're an idiot! A jerk! You made me think-

[bites her lip and turns to face the wall behind her, crossing her arms and standing as straight as a stone]

[breakhisknees.livejournal.com]

[Do you want a hug, Haruhi? Pets her too]

That was the intention; if they think I'm dead, that means that they can go back and fight the front lines.

[bare-my-fangs.livejournal.com]

[was about to open his mouth to argue that some more, but he grudgingly admits to himself that Cross has a point. He still very annoyed though.]

This could have all been avoided, you dickhead, if you had just told us what the fuck you were doing. Then we wouldn't have been sitting around twiddling our fucking thumbs, wondering if you were alive or not.

[trinities]

And we weren't sitting around anyway, we were going to come after you! So see, you should have just told us because we could have been killed and you would have been sorry!

[godisagirl.livejournal.com]

[tenses up at the petting]

You shouldn't be such an idiot, if you do things like that people are going to come after you.

[breakhisknees.livejournal.com]

Heh. She would have liked you. [sounding a little drowsy, man is he exhausted. And, his suit is drenched in his own blood.]

[bare-my-fangs.livejournal.com]

[He rolls his eyes at Cross.]

And once again, you completely avoid giving us a fucking answer.

[only just taking notice of the blood.]

What the fuck? Please tell me that all of that's not your blood.

[trinities]

[ finally lets go; she's got blood smeared on her now but doesn't particularly seem to notice ]

It can't be, right? You're back so you're fine!

[godisagirl.livejournal.com]

[punches a fist at his chest]

Don't pull that crap again, you idiot.

[and now have a hug]

[breakhisknees.livejournal.com]

Yes'm. I need to bathe, blood is so unfashionable.
