A Few Cards Short of a Full Deck | Loid. F

"The second phase of the admission process is a family interview."

"It is mandatory that the applicant attend with both parents."

"Absolutely no exceptions."

Loid groans as he read the letter, he already got past the hard part.. Now an even harder part began...

'If [Name] haven't ran off... This would be a lot easier..' Loid thought as he let's out a sigh of despair.

Anya's eyes sparkle as she thought of who this mysterious [Name] is. 'Are they another spy?!'

"Wonder where he's at... What he's doing.." He mumbled under his breath as his mind began to spiral.

'Augh! Why am I even thinking of him, he's a wanted criminal! He's probably of somewhere breaking the law!'

'He's a bad guy?!'

----------

Somewhere in some place...

The sound of an alarm blares through the whole building as everyone evacuates in a frenzy.

A man stood still in the elevator as he plays an "air violin."

He softly sways with the "music" as people screams and runs for their lives, trying to evacuate the building.

As the lights flashes red, the man pay no attention as if he has no fear of his "impeding doom." He continues to play his "violin" with closed eyes as he listens to the "music" he's making.

Then... The lights in the elevator turns red, the man stopped "playing" as he open his eyes and lowered his hands to his side.

"Seems I came at a bad time." He stated rather blankly before a young woman's voice from his communication device cuts in. "No no— I think you couldn't have timed it better."

"23:47:15 system time. Very punctual, [Name]"

The man hums at the woman's words. "So what's with the explosion just now? Was that also part of his script?"

"Uh huh— 23:44:59 system time. The pulse is from the explosion cause a massive breakdown from the master control system.".

He whistles at the revelation, impressed by the massive breakdown it cause. Who would have thought that explosion could do such damage?

"Alright, so do we need to fight the security?"

"I don't know. Elio didn't say anything about it, so it doesn't matter." The woman spoke up as she mentions the name Elio.

The Leader of their organization.

"Go it. So from now on, I'll be in charge of this operation."

"Copy. Can you let me have some fun this time? Our last few operations turned out to be pretty dull."

"...Sorry. I'm afraid there's not much I can do for you—our task this time is just to "place" the target properly."

"But if you wanna go look for some fun yourself. I won't stop you. I mean, after all..."

The door of the elevator opens, revealing the security forces who are on standby since the alarm signal, it's as if they were waiting for [Name] arrival.

"After all, Elio didn't put it in the script." He started as he slowly walks towards them in a calm manner, no fear nor anxiousness present what so ever.

"Why would it matter?" [Name] stated as he pulled out his dual pistols and start shooting them one by one.

After walking through the facility and killing off some "obstacles," [Name] let's out a sigh as he fixes his black gloves. While doing so... One of them who was beaten up, stood up from the floor and charge towards the man from his back.

Only to be shot dead by a young woman with grey hair and grey eyes. [Name] didn't even flinch as the body fell right next to him. "Cleaning up other people's mess isn't in my job description y'know, [Name]?"

"Yeah yeah. Now... The mission, Silver Wolf.."

----------

As Loid entered a tailor to get Anya's measurement he saw [Name] talking with a young woman with black hair and red eyes. He has a charming smile as he talks with her.

'[Name]? What is he doing here? And where's his coat?' Loid thought as he try to understand the current situation.

'It's the bad guy!' Anya thought as she look between the three of them.

[Name] then spare a glance at them, his smile widens at the sight of them. "There they are."

"Loidy, I like you to meet Miss Yor Briar." [Name] introduced the beautiful woman. "Yor is fine really, I don't mind." She corrected him with a shy smile and a small blush.

"I—nice to meet you, Yor. I'm Loid Forger and—"

"I'm Anya!"

Yor giggles at the adorable child, it's not everyday that she got to see such a cute and adorable child, given her line of work.

"Well it's nice to meet you two and um... [Name].. I suppose we'll see each other at Saturday then."

"Yes, I'll see you then my lady~" He flirts with his velvety voice as he kisses her knuckles, making Yor blush even more at the seductive tone and the sudden intimate gesture.

For some reason... This irked Loid.

[Name] then let's go of her hand and watch as Yor left the tailor. The moment she left, Loid took the chance to grip [Name] arm and start asking questions in a stern voice. "What was that about?"

"Oh my~ you're starting to sounding like a jealous husband~" [Name] teased as his smile widens at the sight of a 'jealous' Loid.

Jealous? Him? Jealous? Yeah right.. He's THE Twilight! No way is he jealous over a wanted criminal and a pretty young lady!

Loid huffs as he tightens the grip he has on [Name]'s arm, glaring daggers at the other.

Meanwhile Anya slowly starting to get a headache by the amount of thought Loid's thinking, the possibilities, the 'what if's', and a lot more.

A complete contrast to [Name]'s thought.

'How cute~'

"Relax Loidy, it's nothing serious she just asked me to be her fake boyfriend for a friend's party she's attending." [Name] explains calmly before leaning down a little and whispers. "Don't worry, I asked her to be Anya's 'mother' for the interview as a bargain."

'How did he!?'

As if reading his thoughts [Name] only gave him a closed eye smile and stated. "I have my sources."

[Name] took the chance to get out of Loid's grip and crouch down to meet Anya's eye level. "Well aren't you just adorable~" He patted her head with the same smile as before, but in a more.. Friendlier manner than a teasing one.

Anya giggles at the show of affection by the so called 'bad guy' she never thought of [Name] like this before as her previous image of him (a rather bad one) fades away from her mind.

"I am definitely buying you a coat."

'I knew it...' Loid sweatdropped as his thoughts from days ago were confirmed by the man himself.

"Thank you for waiting, Mr. [Name], here's your coat." The lady behind the counter said with a warm smile as she puts [Name]'s coat on the table.

"Thank you." He thanked her as she grab his coat and immediately put it on over his shoulders. "Good as new." He commented as he tries to look at the tear it previously have.

"And here I thought you'd just burn it if it's broken." Loid commented with crossed arms and a deadpan expression.

"Well this one is just so happens to be my favorite."

The two men then waits for Anya to be done being measured as [Name] asked Loid what material Anya's coat should be and other things regarding the coat he's planning to get Anya, despite the fact that Loid could barely care for the piece of clothing, he gave his suggestions.
