mrsatterthwaite and ungalad . You were amazing! AMAZING. Part 1




***
I met with my informant - Yokoyama, of K8 FX - in a shady bar in an events Shadie part of town. The whole place smelled of urine, vomit and cheap vodka and so did MOST of ITS customers. Yokoyama

WAS standing in front a pinball machine totally captivated by it.

'Hey. "

'Hey. "

'I need you to repay That Favour. "

He glares at me.

'For the ninth time, lending me a camera eleven not does mean I owe you all the help You Need, asshole. "

'It's just a question. "

I Went back to historical pinball game.

'As long as it's the right kind of question ...'

That Was all I needed.

'What do you know about Miyake Ken? "

He glares at me again.

'Puede Google That. "

'Oh, But Google Does Not come with a winning smile. "

'Seriously, google it. The guy is famous. "

'Yes, I know all about historical fame But I want inside info. "

I stopped playing and stared at me for a long time.

'Best stuntman ever. Masaki Aiba Taught Everything it knows. Retiring Later this year. "

'Oh, why is that? "

'I got bored. Plus he's broken Every Bone In His body. Even the ones in His ears. "

'Figures. But Does He Have the money? "

'Apparently. I have friends in high places. "

Jackpot!

'Or do the friends in high places Have Him? "

'I Doubt it, he's a real righteous dude. "

righteous So I tries to kill people for fun and profit.

'Are you sure about that? "

'Yes, absolutely. " Yokoyama

Was a great judge of character, so I Was Starting To Have mand Doubts.

'Does not sick I Have A Sister? A granny I loves very much? "

'Nope. Have I does around six girlfriends, though. "

I sighed.

'You do not know anything else? "

'Like what? "

Like whether or not I Was a murderous psychopath, for example.

'Like Those Who Are friends in high places, for example. "

Then I Fell silent and spoke slowly.

'All I can tell is one word. V6. "

'You're not making sense and Stock. "

'That's all I can say. "

I Was sure we where dealing with people Dangerous, But When They scare the guy That Creates New Methods of setting people on fire, you know you're fucked. CHTM
LXC I Thought About It And Then Settled on getting as drunk as humanly possible it WAS. It Changes your perspective or at least
shakes it up a little bit. Literally. Almost

I succeeded and when i got out of the daze, it WAS WAS 7 a.m. and breaking morning. I Decided That WAS Yokoyama
drunk enough to forget all Survival Instincts - so was I - so I Repeat the question.

'Come on, tell me. Who are these guys V6? "

'OK, I will but Do not Tell Them I Told you. They're a super secret league of men That JE control the studio. "

'That's ... not Surprising. Either And not a secret. "

'Yes, But Nobody Knows Who They Are. "

'Let me guess. Miyake, Sakamoto, Nagano and Okada, Are not They?'

' You're too smart for your own good. "

'No, the JE is too transparent. Except from Miyake, The Other Two Are Executives That Have tons of power. And Sakamoto is a board member. I do not know why it is secret. "

'They're six, you idiot. "

'So? The other board members? "

'I can not talk. Beside, you're meeting soon Them. "

'What? You sold me out?

Again? " 'Sorry. I love my job. Where else do I get to blow up stuff and get paid for it? "

I tried to run away, But Several times tripped. The streets Were Starting to get full of people and everybody Looked suspicious. These guys psychos May Not Have Been, But They Were, at least, negligent regarding thand health of Their actors. And directors. And Shinto Priests.

I Was Being Followed and I Knew it. A car stopped right in front of me and Some brawny guy Threw Me Into the trunk. The car sped-through Tokyo in a mad chase Towards Nowhere WAS and all I hoped to get out of it alive.

We stopped and Before They blindfolded me Taking me out. It surprised me, Since I Was too drunk to remember events Where I Had Been the night before. We

walk - well, They Walk and I staggered - until i heard a door open and I Was unceremoniously Seated in a cold, metallic chair.

They removed the blindfold and I saw an empty Almost office. It Was dim and I Could Hear Another person mutter and Struggle to my right. To my great

Surprise, it WAS

Taguchi. My first impulse WAS to ask What the hell WAS I doing there, But I Still Had a bit of common sense left.

'Welcome,' Said a velvety voice. 'We hope you're enjoying yourself. " I glanced

around and saw a shadowy figure sitting in Another chair.

'Yeah, you've got a really high end establishment here. " Went There

my last bit of common sense.

'Your sarcasm is not good here. What do you know about Operation Darling? "

'Nothing at all, sir. "

The voice laughed. It Was chilling.

'We broke Into your apartment. We Have Seen the files. "

'Oh. Did you find the actor too? I WAS planning on Returninghim, I swear. "

'No, I Had to go film a movie. The one we finance. "

'Oh. You're Sakamoto. "

He Did not look as Imposing as Had I imagined him to be.

'You're smart. "

'Do I get an Explanation Before Being dropped Into Tokyo Bay? "

'Maybe. Do you promise to shut up? " It Was Obvious

We Both Knew the answer.

"Nope."

'Figures. Can we strike a deal? "

A deal? Why a deal?

'If your offer is good enough. "

bluffer I Had My Way Through Life and I Was an expert at it.

'So, in exchange of your life, you get to expose a dark, dark plot to murder two up and coming actors. "

'And What do I get to hide? "

'Our Involvement in it. "

'Can I Ask You Something? Is this a publicity stunt? "

'No.'
'So it has Something to insurance with cops? "

'No, you can not ask anything. "

'You're no fun at all. I want my explanation. It's the Way Things Are Done. "

'You're not the hero, But I like your style. I'll tell you. It's just a retirement present. "

'Are you fucking kidding me? "

'No. Ken wanted to do Something memorable. What's Better Than a murder plot? "

'A dead actor? "

'There Are More WHERE Came From That One. "

'I wanted Yamashita dead, Did I? "

'It Would Have BeenA Welcome side-effect. "

My Eyes Were Getting Used to the dimness and I Could see two Other Guys. They Were All the Same kind of wearing well-tailored suit That looks expensive, smells like money and Brings all the gold-diggers to the yard.

'Do You Have a Conscience? Any of you? "

'I'm a lawyer,' Said one of Them.

'And I'm an executive producer. " Sakamoto

Just Smiled in Such a way made it very clear historical answer.

'Good point. A soul? "

'I Used to work in the idol business,' He Said and Shrugged.

'Oh. Have you at least a brain. "

'Sadly, I Also Lack to heart. It was nice meeting you, But The fishes Await you. " Okada

Gave to dumb-looking thug and the thug look one Nodder. They left and only the thug remain.

'Tanaka?! " I Heard Taguchi scream.

'Taguchi! This is so weird! What are you doing here? "

'I'm Being Kidnapped. " Tanaka

got a little bit closer. I Could see all historical tattoos. It Was a sight I did not need.

Taguchi and I Engaged in the kind of conversation you Have at class reunions. It Was out of place and out of a surreal movie. Luis Buñuel
Would Have Been Proud.

'Oh, that's too bad. "

'Come on, let us go. We're buddies! "

'Oh, no. These guys are Dangerous. They'll find out I help you and kill me. "

'I can punch you out. I'm half-way untied, anyway,so that'll Be The end result. Let's save ourselves the trouble. "

I sounder smart. It scared me.

'You were always good at ropes. "

Tanaka - who ever the hell I was - Taguchi untied first, Who Then unceremoniously knocked him out. I Was Then untied
too and left to wonder at the marvels Many That the world offered.

Complicated As we Traversed the hallways of JE - I Recognized the place now - I Could Contain my curiosity.

'Who the fuck WAS that? "

'I met him at the chess club, back in high school. "

Suddenly, everyone Thought I Was an idiot. I Was Starting to think That as well.

'Yeah, right. The truth now. "

'I have pictures. " CHTM
LXC 'Right. "

'Pictures. "

'I Said right. That Means I buy it. Barely, But I Do. "

I Could Say The Same about my life as a whole. ***




When I got home, I not was surprised to see Kamenashi's stuff neatly packed Beside the door and him sitting in my couch with a cup of coffee in hand.
'I'm going away. The studio Call and Explained the situation to me. "

I hanged my jacket and sat además him. I did not want to look at him in the face.

"Figures."

'Look, thanks But this is impossible. We're enemies by nature. I'm an actor. You're a photographer. I can not trust you, do you
understand? Además,low rank samurai and I'm a vampire
But That Refuse to kill is always Forced to do so. "

It Was the best thing on the face on Earth. I hoped the movie Was a success if only to see a sequel.

'That sounds original. "

'The Combined Powers of Ninomiya and Matsumoto. But I digress. So they're Separating and she ASKs That. "

'What does the wise vampire say? "

'Nothing. He Was Never There to begin with. It Was all in her mind. "

'Are you telling me you're a hallucination? Because Being Crazy Would Explain A Lot, Actually. "

'No, I'm telling you this whole situation is as preposterous as Trying to kill Akanishi WAS. We Were in the middle of an
Elaborate prank. We Fellfor it and ... Just treat it as a dream. "

'A nightmare, you mean. Events and I did not get laid. "

I softly punched me in the shoulder.

'And You Did not get an exposé events! "

'What?! Tell your bosses I'll do whatever I want. "

'No, you won't. You CAN print a phoney story on the murder plot. Just say you never found out who did it. " My

Looked bleak future. So did my present.

'Nakamaru will kill me. And refuse to refund me the Expenses. "

'Then Be smarter next time. "

'Next time? "

'Yeah, Actually or do you think this is the last time you'll Have trouble with the studio? "

'See? You're confusing me now. Were not you aNo imaginary vampire and this wasn't all a dream? "

'That's the movie, although it wasn't all a dream. " That movie

Kept Getting Better and better.

'Then this is real life and if this is real life, we do not get second chances. " Real life

Kept getting worse.

'You really think that? "

'I do. I'm a photographer, you're an actor and this is the end of

Roman Holiday. "

'Of what? We're not in Rome. "

'Of You Should see a movie. You know, You Could Be the next Audrey Hepburn. All it'll take is to dial down the bitchiness. " Had I

Philosophical hit a state of mind or at least I Had stopped caring about everything. I Focus on a gray point of my gray wall Said
and nothing more.

I jump off the couch.

'Look, I'm going. May We Meet Again. May we not. I just wanted to say thanks and goodbye. "

'Do I get a kiss events? "

'No. They're addictive. "

I smile.

'Ok then. Goodbye. "

I left. I did not move away from the couch. It Was Had Passed as a toothache and a dull relief in WAS setting. WAS
Tomorrow another day and if I felt events as a mermaid sailor Who has let to pass by, I did not care.
I Was Alive WAS and normal life again. Colours May Be Pretty, But When They're clashing They make your head hurt and Those weeks Been Had enough adventure.
Life Went on as lifand is wont to do. Almost Nakamaru

fired and when to me I WAS ready to close down the magazine, Taguchi Offered him the exposé of the century - to 7-parts article about JE's general tax fraud and embezzling. I Avoided Mentioning Any prank and I and Tanaka Koki - I Knew They Did not Know Each Other from chess club - Went on to bigger and Paid Better Things. Had I played us like a fiddle and I did not Even Care.

Apparently, His whole 'Investigative journalist' was not a lie. His Real Name Was "Taguchi Junnosuke '- not Taro, as I Had Told us - and at first, I vaguely Recognized the name. Then, one night, as I Was watching the news, I Remembered. Had I Uncovered a politician's Relationship with the yakuza and subsequently Had vanished from the face of the EarthYake retired, happy and content. My mom Bought herself a karaoke machine. A technician Proposed to Toda Erika. She accepted. Ninomiya tiptoed out of the closet And Then Went Back Into it. His boyfriend - Since Kamenashi Was Right - show up in a magazine A Few days later, chicks and drug Surrounded by Rumours. Matsumoto managed to Not Have A psychotic episode. Yokoyama lost a testicle in a weird explosive accident. Masaki Aiba Decided to Become the Next Best Stuntman in Town. The store around the corner WAS closed. WAS Kamenashi's apartment building rebuilt. Yamashita created His own fragrance, 'Pink Seduction. " Followed Akanishi with 'Red Passion'. They Were Successful Parents of teenaged girls and yet lost a little more of hope for the future. Tanaka Koki, Taguchi's former companion ofr in my wallet.

Once, I met Akanishi. I Paid for the drinks and I ended up carrying capability him home. Yamashita Took care of him all night.

'You Knew it all along, Did not You? " Did Yamashita

look at me when I Answered:

"Maybe."

I revaluated my opinion of them to be just a teensy bit. Idiots They Might Have Been, But They Were loveable idiots and maybe
Had Some hidden depths.

Sometimes I Went out and caught a glimpse of a guy waifish Surrounded by bodyguards. I never Gave me a second glance.


One night, I Was Among the wannabes, the has-beens and the will-always-be, soaked in vodka. I lay in a chair and bobbed my heart to the
music, with my eyes shut. TheKept going and the lights Kept spinning world. Heard someone

I snort and I flipped off Them.

'Watch your manners. "

I did not Recognize the voice. I Recognized the sneer.

'Star Boy. "

'Paper boy,' I Answered and Sat Down Beside Me.

I Took Care Not to touch me.

'What are you doing here? " 'infamously Not getting drunk. " I laughed.

'You're so boring. "

'We've Already ESTABLISHED That. "

'Why are you talking to me? "

'Because you're Covered in your own vomit. "

'So what? It's my life and my prerogative. "

'One of my bodyguards is going to Give Youa ride home. "

I open my eyes.

'Do I get a good night kiss? "

'No. You get a shower. "

'You're no fun at all. " Laugh and

I Went Away.

'm still not sure it WAS real.


It Was a turning point, real or not. When you start to imagine encounters with divas That act as Fairy Godmothers, It Means There's Something wrong with you or at least with your life. Nearly Spring WAS

over and as much as I loved my new job of stalking teen starlets, WAS Something missing. The call to adventure WAS
strong and irresistible. There are so Many unsolved Murders - or so I Thought - So Many suspicious and secretive Producers
Contracts in this part ofThat town untouched WAS Leaving Them Almost a crime. Beside

, Who Would not Want a Life That Could Be Summed up as
'He's an Investigative Reporter haunted by dark historical past. He's a janitor that's more Than meets the eye. Together, They fight crime! "
?

Taguchi's business card burnt my wallet.


When we met again, I WAS as enthusiastic as ever, if historical events of an strident WAS hair shade of blond now. He events Gave me a new camera and a codename.

I Thought It Was silly at first. When, in the span of one week, We Were Chased by wolves, stalked by Russian mobsters, trapped in sinking boats and pushed of two buildings, I Decided That I Was Just Cautious.
I changed apartments. I sold MOST of my cinematicto books. I Did not Have a Need For Them anymore. Why Should I want to make movies when my life Was a movie in full Technicolor?

WAS Only one thing missing and I Knew I Could get it. All I need to do WAS to work on my timing. Last week


Already an Several weeks of filming late. Depressed actors, extras excited, stress Producers, directors and calm all of
cinema's interesting fauna.

And in the middle, a man with hips That Could with Rockefeller out of historical fortune and the eyes of a demon selling you insurance. The studio WAS chaos, again, But I wasn't aware. The September

pulsed with animation and hidden tension, with concealed Excitement and joy. I Just Walk Amidst the loud talk and entre a heated argumentBetween Matsumoto and Ninomiya. Masaki Aiba WAS playing with matches and switches. WAS A woman laughing and showing off a brand new ring Surrounded by make up artists. Two stars Were Having a beer and looking dejected in a corner.

And I Just Walk. I Did not Give a damn about the future. I Did not Give a damn about the past. I just wanted What I Was looking for. Maybe it WAS ridiculous and made no sense. Maybe We Did not match. Maybe that's why we liked Each Other. Maybe We Were a pair made in Heaven.

So I stepped up to the plate and Grabbed His wrist.

"Hi."

"Hi."

'I want my kiss. "

'Take it. "

I Embraced him and kissed him in Such a way Clark Gable Would Have Been Proud. CHT
MLXC At That Same exact instant, Matsumoto HAD DECIDED I HAD DECIDED That enough and the 'Wrap up! " Would look great in cake Ninomiya's face. And as we kissed, the battle roared and the world keep spinning, spinning out of historical axis as it always does. Chaos ensues in Each corner of Earth. Somewhere, Yokoyama Something blew up. Planned Sakamoto Another awesome prank. Some Okada drew up contract that'd tie a poor sucker to the studio forever. Lemmings Jump Out cliffs. Taguchi found a new interesting topic and tried to call me. Nakamaru a bathtub filled with money. Tanaka played chess with one of Kamenashi's bodyguards. A Shinto priest played with murderous historical dog. A Scorned Opened opera singer her third bottle of champagne.

And I? I did not care. I Had all I wanted and even more.

I Took His Hand and led him out. WAS My battered old car waiting for us. I Smile at him.

'Just for today,' He Said and I Shrugged.

'Are you sure? "
I laughed. I Laughed too.
Life Was An endless highway and I Had the convertible and the Love Interest.

Nothing Could stop us now.

e Was So thick'd Have Need an ax to cut it. I Wonderer Who Had Green Light That movie, Because Everybody Knew That MOST of the overblown egos of the industry Were Involved, Not to mention Some Of The Most scandal-prone as well. Technicians Were Already losing patience and it wasn't the second day events. Yokoyama, Whose company - Kanjani 8 FX - Was in charge of the special effects, Had Told Me That Were His co-workers all on the verge on breakdown. For example, Nishikido, Also Known as 'That Sound Guy That Ruined The Shot' Had gone from mildly annoying to full blown saboteur. I Could see and sense and smell everybody's sweat from tired Foreheads slowly dropping. I did not pity Them That Much, though. They Certainly Were Getting Better Paid than me. Their studio Was a big scary monster But The magazine's Financial state Disastrous That Was So my latest scoop, 'Racoon steals kids' ice-cream', got front page. Nakamaru So, in a desperate bid, Had Sent Me to the set. I Was catering undercover as a girl and I would rather talk about how I Not Had to hide my camera. Some Things Are Better Left Unsaid. I Had Been sitting in a corner for ages, waiting for Something to Happen. You'd Have Thought That the sheer overabundance of ego in place That Would Have Already Caused Several fist fights, pero no such luck. Maybe It Was Because the first day of filming, nobody DARED to make a fuss. I Was uneasy and nervous, Because Akanishi Jin, action hero and supermodel banger, Had Been eyeing me all day long with not very innocent intent. I Could not Rely on my being to man to Be a problem so I tried to Avoid him as much as I Could. Tomohisa Yamashita, the other half of Japan's Dumbest comedy duo (and That was quite a feat), WAS on set as well And That only made the situation more Dangerous.
I glanced at my watch again and saw That I Had Been stuck in the stupidest place in Earth for twelve hours. Nakamaru could very well Be The editor and my boss, But I Was too hot to care. Beside , Yamashita WAS elbowing Akanishi and pointing at me. Rumours surrounding the I Knew Them to be true and I wasn't and Stock Taking chances. Who Knew a bunch of comedians named 'Pink and Redder' could get laid so much. I hid in the broom closet I first saw and changed as quickly as possible. Little I Knew That HAVING to carry a leather jacket around in 37 º weather Was the least of my problems. Oh, WAS ignorance bliss. I tried to move as innocently as I Could-after all, sets Are very busy places. I Was Fairly doing a good job fighting When a man glowering His own scarf stepped out of a dressing room and Stood in the middle of the hallway. I Immediately Recognized him. It Was Matsumoto Jun, former Rising Star Turn award-winning scriptwriter. Thought I'd always behind the scenes Being him Was a waste. I Had Always Been a gift to tabloid writers everywhere, pero scriptwriter Since nobody reads the name, the crazy Rumours Always Stay in the industry. I've had only seen two of His infamous Tantrums, But One Had ended withthe police Saying It Was the Greatest party ever They've crashed and the second one included an Indian elephant Had flown in just for the occasion. Had Potential Maybe this shoot after all. 'I'm done, Ninomiya! Accepting I'm not stupid any more of your changes. And All is Not filming a nude scene just stupid pubescent kids to bring to my movie. " 'Then We'll Have an audience full of grannies! " When He Was joined by Ninomiya Kazunari, the executive producer managed to create That Had full season anime series on a budget of 500 yen and Diet Coke, I Knew this was my breakthrough story. He Was Shorter Than I imagined. 'At least They Have Better Taste Than You, you ... you philistine! "
It Was going to get uglyso I jump and ran in the opposite direction, thinking I WAS going to be safe. Instead, my life twirled and twirled off the road. A Suddenly Open and door Before I Knew It, I Was in the middle of Those meeting cute scenes from the movies. But INSTEAD of catching an idol or Audrey Hepburn in my arms, I got a screaming diva That Instantly started to hit me with a script.
Trying Not to be even more noticeable, I pushed the banshee Into the room and closed the door. It Was a weird dressing room. I Could Tell There Were Several mirrors, But They Were all cover up. An Eiffel Tower made of Pepsi Max bottles WAS in the middle of the room and Several Dozens of lilies littered the room. A poster of Italian neorealism Some movie decorated the wall. It
wasn't a weird room. It Was a star's dressing room and if the lilies and Sophia Loren Were Any indication, I Knew Exactly Whose. I cornered Me Against the door, But my Reflexes were good so I Avoided MOST of historical hits. 'What the fuck?! Are you crazy? Stop hitting me with That damn script! " Before I froze

throwing it at ne and muttered:

'You're the one Who tried to kidnap me. "

'Kidnap you? You've been watching too much movies. "

'Then why are you here? Why did you lock us in this room, huh? "

'I'm just a fan. "

I just Realized He Was Had Kamenashi Kazuya, Japan's Most Popular Leading Man. Among teenage girls and middle-aged Women at least. His movies Were A mix
ture of diabetic cheesiness, Forced romantic plots, cinematic conservatism and greedy capitalism.

sure I Looked Different Without make-up. Like I Was a real person and Not an imaginary construct.

He Did not answer and INSTEAD His eyes squinted.

'You're a paparazzi, I know it. "

I wasn't as stupid as I Thought.

'I'm a fan, I swear. Loved you in
'The Secrets That She Keeps'
. Your performance in the death scene was really moving. Gave me a whole new perspective
on cancer. " He Was

flatterer. Actors are so easy to figure out. I Learnt That in film school. Then I Realized directors and scriptwriters and
Producers Were more complex.
'Thank you, I did
'Oh, it will. I will make sure of That. " His voice sounder

a little bit scary. If the movie Psycho Had a Signature Ninomiya, I WAS nailing it.

'Oh, how? "

'By Akanishi and Yamashita Keeping in line, of course. You Can Tell That to your journalist friends, you paparazzi scum. "

I Waved my hand around.

'You got it all wrong. I'm just with the Cinematography department. "

'I see your camera, asshole. "

Damn it.

'This? Just an old thing, nothing important. Photography is a hobby of mine. " I

historical arms crossed and stared at me.

'Let me warn you: there Shall Be Scandals not in this set, so you Better go now or I'll go you. "Despit

The Fact That I Could Have Easily knocked down legions of guys Several historical size, Something told me this one stand Could
historical ground and jump up so I Bowed out.


I smoked a little Outside And Then Went to the magazine's headquarters. Nakamaru Owed me a damn apology.

Of course, all I have to say WAS
Had Good work. Now, Why Did not you take a picture of historical room?
I rolled my eyes and
Prepared for another day of hard, hard work.



*** The studio WAS

as crazy and as ridiculous as the day before. A guy holding a microphone WAS Some flirting with actress unremarkable, the kind of actress that's always on the verge of getting her big berce. It wasn't working. I Had Been Called 'gal' seven times so far and it
Would only get worse. It always gets worse.

I Stood in the middle of the hallway with my debonair attitude MOST Determined But of course, a janitor dog only look tired, dejected and ready to jump
out of a window. I fiddled with the broom, Avoided eye contact and tried to ignore the big flashy sign
Said That

Kamenashi Kazuya.

Had I only been there for five minutes by chance when to have Eichmann up with a stupid smile in His lips and a demure look in His eyes. I cringed and
Focus on my brand new shoes, now Covered in dirt.

'You're the World's Most stylish janitor, that's for sure. "

I grunted.

I giggled.

I found it cute.

'Oh, dear, you can not convinces me of your gruff manliness no matter how much you grunt. "

I started slowly caressing my ... broom. I did not dare to look up.

'I'm not the one with purple nails. "

'I play a rocker Vampirate. It's character. "

I look up and saw him. His make-up Could've Been in a painting exposition and Fauvist Apparently I Had a rainbow squid on His Head
INSTEAD of hair. I stifled a laugh.

'You play a what? Was not this an art house film? A Serious, thoughtful film? "

I twitched.

'Ninomiya-san Decided to spice it up a little. "

'And Said Matsumoto just nothing? "

'Nah, I added half an hour of silence to the script. "

That He Was pleased with Development. I Remembered That Some People Thought Kamenashi WAS vying for seriousness as an actor. It Was a doomed
attempted. Once you start in stuff like 'The Veterinarian That Found Love', you can not take it back.

'He Thinks That Letting Ninomiya is one pass? "
'No. He's just an alien WHO WANTS to take over the Earth and this September is historical first step. " I Gave the matter more Than Thought WAS Warrant (or maybe not) And Then DECIDED it not was unsound. Or maybe I Was distracted by Kame's scrawny legs.


"Our magazine has ethics; That We Will not print. Not Without Proof. "

'You sure you cared about when to printed proof That I Had an affair with a seal. "

'That Was a typo. We Meant a SEAL. "

'Oh, really? And what about That Time Manipulated you ran a photo of me? "

We Did not Have the money to pay for manipulation, so I WAS offended.

'We Do not Do That. "

'Really? Then When did you get a picture of me with no make-up? " Oh, now I Remembered. I Had Looked like the lovechild of a turtle and a bat. I Could not repress a giggle.

'We Both Know That Was not Manipulated one at all. "

'It was! "

He frowned again and I Laugh.

'No, you just look Like That. It does Explain why you cover up your mirrorsUntil noon, though. "

'I look as pristine as water as soon as I get up. Genetically I'm blessed. "

'Yeah, and your slim figure is made of cheeseburgers. I'm your nemesis, celebrity boy, and I know all your dirty secrets, so You Better Not
annoy me. "

I cocked His Head and Smile.

'I have no dirty secrets. I'm shameless, What can you say? "

'Too bad. Dirty Secrets Are fun, do not you think? "

'Then Could you help me make some? "

I Shrugged. He WAS hot, I Had no standards and it Was a slow day.

'There's a broom closet over there, But Probably Your Majesty is too dignified for That. "

I snorted.

'Call Me When You Can Outmanatch Akanishi, paper boy. " Laugh and

I Went back to work. Sadly, except for the facts That WAS annoyed Ninomiya They Were not Able to book Ken Miyake, a stuntman
Retiring, Kamenashi Spent Practicing lunch lines and Matsumoto historical historical liked tea with three spoons of sugar, I Was Able to get
anything. ***






Third day of undercover news and not interesting at all. Nakamaru WAS about to Admit defeat But wanted to Give it one more try. I Thought That I Could maybe find a tax fraud scandal or a murder plot Could land at my feet. I WAS, to say the least, incredulous.

I sighed, left the magazine's headquarters and dragged my feet to my car. I Had Already Rented the cosTume For That Day, so what the hell, I Could go there one more time.

I Must say I WAS the hottest make-up artist in the whole building, modesty Be Damned. My legs Were Positively delicious and my strut
stomped on men's ... hearts.

Had I failed to Consider, pero, Akanishi That WAS still on set. As I tried to make Yamashita's eyes a little more alive - and failed miserably
-Japan's Official Horndog, WAS Approaching like a missile. I Had a target and I Was it.

As I saw him get closer and closer in the mirror, my unsteady hands Grew. I ended up turning Yamashita Into a panda. But Since He Was Turned wrestler playing to form vigilante, the director complimented me.

Nervous as I Was, I Was not ready to itcape. I had a mission as well - I Had to save a Struggling tabloid
Without getting sued for libel! Then

Destiny, for eleven, Gave me a good hand. Akanishi On Some wire and tripped Fell down face first. The crash sounds like
Had I broken all the bones on His body. I smirk and Looked over my shoulder with a flirty smile only to Be amazed by the sight. Had not I only tripped
: I WAS sitting on the floor and looking at a spotlight Apparently That Had missed him by inches. Yamashita
sprung from His seat and ran over to His friend.

'Jin-man! Are you okay? "

'Pink-dude! I Almost Died! "

'I know! "

"Really!"

'For real! "

'Strange! "

"Dude!"

"Dude!"
slickly
I hid behind a sleeping technician and started to take Some pictures. I also tried to block Their inane dialogue drilling
But It Kept my ears. I glanced over and saw to Ninomiya Such frustration Almost That I pitied him. Given What I Knew about historical
insane tactics, Including But Not limited to shady yakuza Dealings, PACTS and demonic idol mongering, 'Almost' was the operative word. Matsumoto
WAS Leaving in a huff and Threatening to never come back again. This Was the Exact Same Way in Which Had historical quit acting career. Stress always got to him and Any little setback Became a catastrophe.

'OK! That's it! Shut up, Both of you! " Kamenashi

Had Appeared on intent and WAS todayly working on the film. I Laugh At His delusion.

'But Kame-boy! I Almost Died Today. I'm shaking, see? "

I LIFT to non-trembling hand And Then laughed. Kame

wasn't amused.

'Look, you May NOT care about your career, But I Do. "

'You care about my career? That's so nice of you. "
'I care about mine, Akanishi. I want it to Reach the next level. Your Are Not hijinks going to set me back. " 'They Were not mine! "
'You're not Taking this as Seriously as You Should! You show up late, flirt all the time and do not even know your lines. "

'You're Always the same, Kamenashi. This movie sucks anyways, Why Should I Worry? " It Was the

truth and truth stings like a bitch. Kamenashi WAS livid and I felt sorry Had His bubble burst. After all, dreaming of bigger Things is admirable, although stupid and naïve. I Was Starting to think Kamenashi That Might Have Been Tarnished by Not yet What we call 'reality'. Maybe His earnest attitude real WAS. Actually I liked Maybe His own movies and that's why I WAS so set on this one.

You Could Have Heard a squirrel's Following the steps in silence. A squirrel ballerina, at That. Kame

Wait Until we all felt trapped in a bubblegum of awkwardness and Then, as I Threw His Hands in the air, utter the immortal words
That Any producer dreads:

'I quit. " ***







In thand ensuing chaos, I slipped away. I lit a cigarette and slowly made my way Towards my car back.

'Damn it! Stupid car! " Nearby

, Kamenashi fighting an uphill battle WAS Against His car's door. If I had to compare historical to mine, my Paparazzimobile
Was a barnyard cat - ugly, old and temperamental - and historical Was An Abyssinian fed with truffles.

'Wow, star boy. Are you sure it's your car? "
I Took a minute to answer and I inwardly laughed.

'Yes. Now fuck off. "

When a person is angry, They blabber. Things blurted And fed me, so I bore His annoyance like a Knight Templar.

'It Was a hard day, wasn't it? " Butter

up an actor and he'll Deliver. The wisdom of the ageswrapped in the cynicism of today.
'Absolutely! Akanishi Jin has no decorum at all. He's Such an Unpleasant man. " This guy

Had no sense of camaraderie. Understood now why I've Spent the breaks sleeping or reading self-help books.

'That's why you Slept with him. "

A shot in the dark. A Fairly easy one to make and one that'd historical ruffle feathers. Annoying the guy WAS the best I Had Had fun in ages.
I Waved His hand as if It Was Some harsh rebuttal.

'No, I Slept with him Because I Was Temporarily insane. "

'So It Was not Because Of The Rumours regarding his ... Ability acting? "

'Those Are Severely exaggerated reports. He does know A Few acting tricks, though. " Sp

icy and bitchy, Exactly how I like my news. And my coffee.

'Can I print that? "

'No, it's all Strictly off the record. I Might Be trampled by His fans if I dare confess the truth. "
Who cares about truth anyway? This industry is all good lighting and excellent make-up, after all.

'And Without attribution? Can I print it like that? "

He shook His Head 'no'.

'Fans Have friends in high places. Then they'll find out and kill me. I do not want to get Killed. "

'Then why did you sign up for this movie? "
'Because I'm crazy, of course. "

'Quitting So are you really? "

I frowned.

'Ninomiya-san is very persuasive. "


Persuasive . As I did not know about What Had Happened to poor young Chinen Yuuri. 'Who did I Threaten? " 'My grandmother. I Believe I Can not Even Knows Where She Lives. She's from the country and she ... "

'Star boy, I knows everything."

That I Had Learnt the hard way and Without Even Knowing the guy.

'So I told me I Can not Have Quitting me, Especially after I Did not get Miyake. I'm glad I Did not, though. "

I wasn't. Miyake Had Been Involved in a very public confrontation regarding the quality of one of Yamashita's action movies
everyone Knew That WAS in fact-about a girl. It's always about a girl. The drama Could Have Been delicious and palpable, pero
someone Had Beensensitive. I Hated sensibility.
'Oh, What Happened With That? They did hire somebody else? "

'I Call An old friend of his, But His plan to impress Some high level suit is failing. "

'Who's that high level suit? "

'Something Nagano. I Came down to the set today. "

Wow. Nagano That If It Was, It Was the magazine Could use news. The job wasn't going so Badly after all.

'Oh, really? Hiroshi Nagano? Why did I eat? Are you behind schedule? " I punched historical

car.

'Have You Seen Our Director? "

'Actually, no, I have not. "

'That Does not answer your question? "

Oh.

"Oh." Kamenashi

Took My Astonishment as encouragement "and ran off with it. I Kept a lot of bitterness hidden. Well, I just Kept a lot of bitterness.

'He's Ninomiya's boyfriend, if you ask me. Come on, have failed to show up in the first day Because He Was out fishing! And Ninomiya
just laughed. I do not know what's so great about the guy, really. "

I Was getting sick of historical rants. In FACT, WAS rant all I did. It Was impossible to Have a normal conversation with him it
Without Turning Into a bitchfest.

However, The Fact That He Was not the patient, I always played man Understanding WAS refreshing.

'So, do you want the ride or not? "

His door Open and I got Into His Car. Then I

Lower the window.

'Maybe Some Other Day, paper boy. See you and stop snooping around! " I

leaner over historical window and winning smile Smile.

'It's my job. "
'No, you just want to see me, so stop it or I'll tell Ninomiya. "
'Okay, okay. But do not feel bad When I do show up. " I rolled

His Eyes, closed the window and Drove off. There I Stood like a penguin in a Chinese restaurant and Then Went to my car, thinking up excuses for Nakamaru. ***







The next day, I sat Nakamaru to the set Along Our trusted janitor, Taguchi. That Was a rising storm in September and
Our magazine Needed to get the scoop or else we Would go under. After all, There AreSo Many Scandals infidelity only You Can So Many milk and dating Rumours
You Can Make Up Before You Need current real dirt on people. And if half of the Rumours about Johnny's Studio's barely legal tactics Were true, Could we mine enough information for a libel lawsuit that'd Give us much publicity Needed. Or at least an inordinate Amount of money shush That Could we put to good use. I Was Already Imagining current air-conditioning in the office. And maybe events offices, plural. Taguchi

WAS excited and Thought That This Was His breakthrough to the competitive world of Investigative Journalism. I like the smell of freshly baked hope - and even more, the moldy smell of crushed dreams - so I let him be. I'm Kind Like That.

I Was out of ideas for creative costumes, so we jump up for more Conventional stalking instead. Taguchi got Into
using my old janitor costume and, amusingly, Did not look like a janitor at all. The only reason I HAD to bring him Accepted WAS Along Because He Had a nasty left hook
.

I tried to get Into the set, But the security guards Were Not That stupid. They Did not Buy That I Was the make-up artist's brother and
I Did not Have Another costume so only got in Taguchi. Sadly, all I Could Do WAS stay alone in a tiny, smelly car, chain-smoking and
Trying hard to ignore The Fact That My Life Was the leftovers of youth. I just wanted the chance to do something, Even if it WAS only Creating The Most amazing headline in the history of journalism. I Had Already

Starting Taguchi fallen asleep when to knocking on the door. I let him in.

'You will not believe this! "

I WAS excited, But I Had seen him excited over pastries I Had never eaten before.

'I will not believe what? "

'Akanishi Jin WAS Almost Killed. " Was

Taguchi stupid or did I think I was?

Damn it. I Want to be in a film noir, NOT in a buddy cop comedy.

'That Was Yesterday's news. "

I Grabbed me by the shoulders.

'Again. "

"What?"

'His lunch WAS poisoned. Then make up historical WAS poisoned as well. He Was Rushed to the ER, But Apparently It Was Nothing Serious. "

I Turn on the car.

'TAguchi, let me buy you a beer. "

I WAS puzzled.

'But We Have not Been Paid lunch and I Bought you today. Are you sure you Can Afford it? "

'Are Those just details! This one is the big one, Taguchi. Let's celebrate! "



Next morning, a rabid dog somehow got Into the set and Almost bit Akanishi. Düring

lunchtime, a technician Had Seen Before nobody hit him with a microphone.

Then, a Shinto priest tried to run him over with a '91 Toyota Corolla. That Same night, a teenage girl tried to strangle him
Outside a nightclub. By the end of the week, Akanishi Had Been the victim of poisoning Attempts five (two of them to be by an opera singer I Had Scorned), thirty fOur close calls INVOLVING Household items, six stabbing incidents luckily That Almost Were not major and twelve lethal car accidents. Also, wild animals loose Had Several tried to maim, or just bite Generally hurt him.
It Was Starting To Be Slightly suspicious. ***







When the next week started, I Had Already Decided to uncover the mysterious and Repeat Attempts on Akanishi Jin's life. While I have never done anything
Had good for the world, Had I never done anything wrong Particularly Either the Amount of bitterness and the culprit
WAS Had Disturbing. Beside

, Was There a Better Than
headline 'Plucky journalist solves puzzling case! "
? CHT

MLXC This time, I skipped the costume and just got the set by Into The Most Useful using stealth technique: walk like you own the place. Taguchi
follow me cowering in fear.

'It's Dangerous! What if the killer decide to attack us? "

I WAS going to die first. Those Are The Dangers of Being comic relief.

'Why Would I do that? "

'We are the heroes and killers What is Attacking heroes do. "

'We're not heroes; Our intentions Are not Exactly pure and clear. "

'Are not They? "

I cursed under my breath. I Might Have Been freakishly strong, But I Was in the boxing club in high school and Did not Need him at all.
I Could knock out a dragon and Have enough timand to run away Before It Recovered, so the janitor not was NECESSARY.

I faced him and Waved a finger at him.

'Look, we're here to look for clues regarding the Akanishi Affair. If you see anything strange, tell me and Do Not interfere. I repeat, Do Not interferes

. "

'And What do I do if Akanishi is in danger? "

'Rising star is Killed

is a headline Better Than Idiotic Janitor
Star Dies Saving
, so let him save Himself. "

'How can you say that?! Journalists are here to make the world a Better Place to unveil hidden Truths and keep an eye on Politicians, Not
Rumours shameful to dig for or profit from scandal. "

I Look at him Without quite technical understanding. Was the guy for real?

'Ok, Then Be a hero if you want. Just let me know Before hand and I'll Take Some pictures. " I bit historical

lip And Then huffed, But Did not press the point.

'Let's separate. You go ask the Other Employees, I'll check with the actors. "

I Knew That My aura of success Would scare the not so lucky ones Into Silence, It Was Better so if I sat Taguchi. Well, maybe I just
Did not want my classmates from film school, now doing menial work, to find out as much of I Was a loser as They Were.

I Decided to go talk with the actors and maybe talk a little bit with Ninomiya. That I wasn't scary. Akanishi
WAS historical hiding in dressing room and Yamashita Answeredthe door. 'Our Lives Are in Danger, man. Sorry. "
'But I'm just ...'

Akanishi strode across the room and Open the door. I Pointed at me.

'Dude. I totally saw you the other day with Kamenashi in the parking lot. Are you His minion? "
The guy WAS in a high paranoia. It wasn't unexpected.
'Kamenashi have minions now? "

I Nodder.

'He hates me! I Must Be behind this! Get away from me! " Yamashita

historical rolled eyes - Was That a dash of intelligence? - And closed the door.

The rest of the cast WAS Equally suspicious of me and my cover and I got nothing.

Apparently, actors and make-up artists' siblings don't talkThat much. Taguchi and Stock
wasn't
Luckie.

'Sorry! They Were not talking. "

'I did not see you around. Where Were You? "

I Shrugged.

'I got lost. You see, There's a hallway. It leads outside, to the parking lot. I Was hungry, so I jump up to find something to eat. But
When I tried to come back, I Could not find the set. " I barely Avoided
strangling him.
'Look, There's only one person left. Let me take this one, ok? "

'Then I get a beer? " Next time Nakamaru
Asked Strategies for saving money, my only suggestion WAS going to Be 'Fire the janitor. "
I made my way across the studio, standing Until I Was Before adoor with a huge, huge star on it. I snorted and Open it. Kamenashi
Was Sleeping in a make-shift bed, cover with His own jacket. The lilies Were Starting to wither and I Had
put up more posters. Mifune. Eastwood. Hepburn - Both of Them. Even Bogart. At least, I've Had good taste and a lot of ambition.

I cleared my throat and Wait Until I've done I wasn't alone.

'What the fuck are you doing here, paper boy? "

I Grabbed a chair and sat down.

'Asking uncomfortable questions. Are you Trying to kill Akanishi? "

historical and Turner I rolled back on me.

'Go away. I need my beauty sleep. "

I ruffled my hair.

'Come on, just some questions. "

I sat up and faced me.

'No, I'm Not Trying to kill him. If I were, I Would not fail. Satisfied? "

He was my best hope and I Was Starting to feel sorry for the guy.

'No. I need your help. "

'What for? "

'I need you Some questions to ask. "

I sighed.

'You're not a detective. Who're an overworked photographer ought to leave Before I call security. "
Had I left only one more card But It Was a winning one.

'OK, But you do realize everybody Believe You're behind this, do not you? "

His jacket slid off.

'What? Are They Crazy? "

'You do not speak with Any of your cast mates, do you? " CH
TMLXC Suddenly I Did not Pick it up and look back at me.

'There's no need. "

I Had the emotional maturity of a 12 year-old. Luckily for him, so did everybody else on set.

'They all believe you're Some psycho. Or a Woman Scorned. "

'It Was a one-night stand, no big deal. That I can not believe they're stupid. "

'If you want to clear your name, help me out! "

I Stood up and started pacing around the room. I cared. As much as I played the cold-blooded diva, I WAS scared and hurt and He Was Such a bad actor I Could not hide it.

'And Then what? You run the story and I look like a fool? " 'No! You talk to your agent, the magazine runs a story about Then the CHTMeddling MLXC Star That Saved
Akanishi Jin. Great publicity,
for Both you and the movie. And your image will Be Better than before. "

'It's a bad idea to get Involved with your kind. "

I Had a point.

'You Must Be curious, at least. "

'Yes, I am but I'll wait for the police to solve this. "

It Was a lost cause.

'Well, I'll leave you my number. Just in case. "

I scribbled my number in a napkin and Gave it to him.

For a second, I believe I WAS going to throw it out, But I put it in His pocket with the faint hint of a smile.

'See you,' I Said while locking the door.

'You're a pest. " Sweetest

gu ever. ***








I Was sure he'd take the bait and when my cell phone rang around midnight That Same Day, I Knew I Had Been right. I let it ring a FEW times, just to make him twitch.

'Hi, paper boy,' I Said When I finally pick up.

I tried to sound cheerful and Not hungover. Taguchi Had the alcohol tolerance of an ox.

'Hi. So you've Decided to COOPERATE? "

'No, I just saw Something weird and I Thought I'll help you out. "

'Out of the goodness of your heart? "

'Nah. Your magazine has Some photos I'd Rather see Destroyed. I tell you what i know, you burn Them. "

'That's not a fair trade. " CHTML
XC 'Oh, I Assure you it is. My information is very valuable. "

'And I only Have your word on it. Sorry, NOT BUYING it. "

'What do i have to do to get you to destroy Them? "

'Help me out. Let me take you to dinner. Your choice. "

'I'm not your snarky Love Interest in this movie. "

'Well, you're snarky and you're interested. Close enough. "

have ignored my comments and jump up on.

'So what do you want me to do, Then? "
'Just ask questions. Keep an eye on the set. Talk with your inside connections. "
'I have no contacts. "

'Oh, really? Then how did you Become a star? Luck?

Talent? "

'OK, I do Have Some withnections, But I Doubt They know much. "

'Trying is a free action. So if you try, you lose nothing. "

'OK, OK. I'll See What I Can Do And Then we'll meet. "

'So you accept my ...?'

He cut me off. This guy WAS the MOST fun yet boring person I've ever met.

'Strictly business. "

'You're Such a bore. "

'No, I'm smart, paper boy. See you. "



We met in a bar. It Was packed and I Had to make my way across the people, the smoke and the blaring music. I WAS sitting in the back, Surrounded By Some Girls That Look dumb and drunk, a bunch of bodyguards and two hip, chic up-and-coming actors. 'Paper Boy. " 'Kamenashi-san. "

'Let's discuss this in private,' He Said while waving a hand. His little entourage

dissipated and I sat down next to him.

'So, did you get anything? " WAS subtleness

useless.

'Maybe. Do you want Something to drink? "

'No, thanks. What did you find out? "

'Not much, But There's Something That Really Stood out,' I Said Before a melodramatic pause. 'All the people involved
Are or Have Been on the studio's payroll. "

'You're fucking kidding me. "

'No, I'm not. "

'What does a studio need a Shinto priest for? "

I Shrugged.

'I Was a consultant for a biopic. "

'Oh, I see. "

I did not see it at all, But I wasn't about to delve Into the topic.

'So now go destroy the pictures. "

'Ha You're funny. "

'Some I pulled strings for you, so you Better pay me back. "

'I owe you dinner, thank you, and goodbye. "

I Stood up and tried to go to the exit, pero historical Were three burly bodyguards blocking my way out. They Were workshop just inches than me. I Could Take Them out with my hands tied behind my back.

'Destroy. The. Photos, 'he hissed.

The bodyguards got closer.

Well, with one hand tied to my back.

'I. Will. Not. Not Until You Give Me Something more judgments or final. "

'It's great information and you know it. Keep your side of the deal, will you? "

'Or what? "

'Or Not Even the stupid janitor Will Be Able to get you out of this. "

'Oh, really? "

Fifteen Minutes Later, I Was kissing the sidewalk.



At the very least, I had a lead. Either an inside job - a pissed off executive, Some Scorned wife - or Even Worse, an Elaborate set-up with the Consent of everybody Involved.

I Went back home and sat down in my couch. I wasn't really sure of how to continue.

'Damn it. " My only contact

WAS Kamenashi. I HAD to call him again. Before I started talking I Could hang up.

'Hi, sorry, I'll destroy if you do me ThemOne Last Favour. "

'Are you a masochist? "

'Maybe. Can you send me more Detailed Information? Like how and when and why They Were employed? "

Did I say anything for about a minute, as if talking on the phone WAS for free.

'You'll destroy the pictures? "

'Yeah, I will. Tomorrow. "

'I need a guarantee. "

'Your bodyguards just beat me to a pulp. If I break my promise, They Are free to do it again. "

'OK, OK. I'll send the information. With one of my bodyguards. Tomorrow, to the magazine. " When the bodyguard

Eichmann up the next day, Nakamaru wasn't amused, But I WAS smart enough to shut up. My face WAS enough encouragement ".



A day and three liters of coffee Later, I Was sitting in the middle of my living room Surrounded by the Employment
history of about thirty people. Had I only managed to discover one common thread - Junichi Okada, a lawyer in charge of all Their Contracts. I Had not Been Able
to find out anything about the guy. He Did not show up at parties nightclubs normal, not normal enemies Known friend. Just the perfect lawyer.

I Was Lost and if all the mystery movies I Had watched and all the detective novels I read Had Were Right, this situation call for
only one solution - trespassing. I Called

Taguchi and two Hours Later, We Were in front of Johnny's Entertainment. Taguchi WAS bouncing around like Some clown on speed.
'WhatHappened to your face? " I asked.

'I fell. "

'It looks bad. "

He poked me. I wince.

'Look, we're searching ... Stop Doing That. "

"Sorry."

'So, as I Was Saying, we're looking for Okada's ... I Told you to stop. "

"Sorry."

'Okada's office. Once we're there, we Need to look for clues. Are we clear on that? "

He Was impatient. Maybe I wanted to go to the bathroom.

'Yeah, yeah. Separate Shall we? "

Thankfully, I Gave me the excuse to leave him behind Before I Had to invent one.

'It'll be better. We'll cover more ground. "

He Smiles and Climb the fence. However small brain historical might Have Been, I WAS agile and useful.

I sighed with relief when i found myself alone and in the middle of an empty building. There Were A Few security guards, pero i have good Reflexes and Avoid Them with success. Junichi Okada


. The door WAS
clear: I Had Reached my destination.

'Yay. "

I Pick the lock and Entered Into a cramped, small office. I HAD hoped to find piles of paper, But the world wasn't enough
noir feeling and I Had to turn on the computer. Thankfully, the guy had a great archiving system and it wasn't hard at all to find a suspicious folder named 'Operation Darling', full of memos by a guy named Sakamoto. I hastily copied Them And Then ran away. I found Taguchi

at the entrance, Already sitting in the driver's seat and ready to give me a ride home. I did not even ask What He Had
accomplished.

When I woke up the next morning, I Had 35 unread messages and They Were all Nakamaru's. I WAS denying Any association with me, pre-emptively
. I figured him Taguchi Had Told About Our midnight romp.

I got up and Had a shower. Kept getting the whole thing and Sillies Sillies. Had I gone-through all the files, But They Were Apparently Ken Miyake planning to throw a retirement party. Which Was a little bit ridiculous, considering I Was Just A Few Years Older than me.

Had I tried to see if There Was Some Underlying code But I Had failed. I wasn't surprised - I can not solve a Sudoku puzzle events -But it still bugged me. Jin Akanishi Could not Have That Many enemies. Sometimes I Could Be irresponsible and historical movies Were the kind of comedy you watch when you're stoned But I Had a likeable quality about him. I WAS like a kitty. A drunken, sleepless
Had Kept That kitty cuteness ITS nevertheless. So maybe the

clues and Okada Were not was wrong at all Involved in the string of Almost Crimes, But That Would Have Meant That Kamenashi Was a lying liar. I do not like Being scammed, But It Was A Possibility very real.

'Whatever. " Gathered

my courage and I Gave him a call. I still Owed him dinner, after all.





*** We met

A Few Hours Later at Some hot spot, a chic nThat restaurant sold ew 'Grilled meat grinded rounded' INSTEAD OF
burgers and charged you accordingly.

'You were wrong,' I Said as soon as I sat down.

'I'm never wrong. "

'Look, it WAS just a coincidence. You're just feeding me bullshit to get me to destroy the photos. "

I stopped sipping from historical margarita.

'So who's Trying To Kill Akanishi, Then? Fairies? "

'I Probably fucked one and kicked her out of bed. " In

That instant, Kamenashi got a call That changed Our Lives. Or at least That month.

"Fuck."

'What happened? Akanishi ran out of luck? "

'No. I did. My apartment just blew up, 'He Said, still staring at the phone.

I gaped.

'You're kidding. "

'I'm not. Bodyguards Are Not known as jokesters and one of Them That just told me my apartment was just blown up. " Some people

Might Have seen a tragedy, But I saw an opening.

'Well. Do you have a place to stay? " I rolled

His Eyes. 'No, but I'm not going to the hole you call home. "

'Hey! It's clean. Sometimes. "

'Yeah, sure. If it as clean as your shirt is, I'm screwed. " My shirt WAS

stainless. He Was bluffing.

'Oh, You're Not getting screwed yet, But We Can Arrange Something. "

'Do not you get tired of that? "

'Of what? "

'Higyou, sir. "

'Aw. Then What do we do? Play Charades? "

Then I stole my pillow.

'No, we sleep. "

'You're the MOST boring person on Earth. "

'I prefer to heal. " 'No, sane people like sex. You're just boring. " His eyes rolled and I changed the subject.

'Is There a store close by? I need a smoke. "

'There's one around the corner. Want company? "

'You'll only get annoying if I refuse. " I did

shopping fast and decidedly historical, But I Had A Lot of Things to replace. I Waited Outside and WAS not surprised to see colleagues of mine. Kamenashi's legendary stealth Abilities Were, But This Was flabbergasting. Had I managed toget to my place with nobody Following him? He Was Smarter Than I Gave him credit for.

While I was meditating on the immortality of paparazzi and crabs, Kamenashi got out of the store and started walking back to my place. He Did not wait for me.

'Hey, wait! "

We Walked in silence. My Street WAS dimly lit and Kamenashi got a little closer. It Had To Be fear, Because It Could not Be subtle flirting. Kamenashi and I did not do subtle.

'So ... what's for dinner? "

It Was a stupid question. It was my place. Knew I WAS for take-out dinner.

I held a bag in front of my face.

"This."

'Do We Have to heat it? Because my microwave is dead. "

'That Does not surprise me at all. "

Thinking back on it, seeing the car speeding Was a miracle. Even if my conscious mind WAS Engaged in flirting, my lizard brain
Tapped Into Humanity's Survival Instincts forgotten. I Jumped at him with the strength of all my stupidity and rashness. We landed on the sidewalk
, Quickly got up and started running to my place, Not bothering to look back. When we got there, I closed the door as if Bigfoot WAS
us behind with an ax. We

Regained Our breath slowly leaning against the door.

'You okay? "

'Why did you do that? "

I glanced aside.

'I did not think. "

'That much is Obvious. "

'You can not say thanks? " CHTML
Himself XC I let slide down to the floor. I Followed His example.

"Thanks."

'That's better. So, can I top? "

'You take the couch. Idiot. "

I did not take that one to heart. Could I see him smiling in the mirror.

'Now, take off your clothes. "

'I Told You ...'

'I want to see if you're hurt, idiot. "

'That I can check myself. "

I always Had A Tendency to underestimate a person's intelligence. Himself

I locked in the bathroom while I Look at myself in the mirror. Thankfully, we where just Bruised But the fright Had Been startling. This Was getting

Serious And That We Were Meant only going in the right direction.



Around 2 AM, a noise startled me. Kamenashi WAS rummaging-through my stuff.
'Bastard,' I muttered and intended to sleep until i WAS WAS sure historical guard down.

I jump off the bed and Grabbed him. I Was An evil ... an evil raccoon. That stole kids' ice-cream.

"Spill it. What the fuck Were you looking for? "

"Nothing."

'You're a bad actor. "

Understatement of the century.

'Okay, I wanted to See What You Had found out. "

I let him go.

'This Was the reason you came here, wasn't it? You're my main suspect now. You Probably events blew up your own place.
Or maybe it WAS all a lie. "

Of course, the best course of action when you're alone with your main suspect is to let him know of your suspicion.

'You saw the news, so you know it really blew up. "

I Grabbed my head in frustration.

'Did you get the message? We Need to stay away from this. "

'They Are targeting me now! I Want to Know Who They Are! "

'cinema lovers They're Probably just upset with your success and Apparent Lack of talent. "

I pout. The bastard pout.

'That's not it. It's the studio. Maybe They Have Life Insurance Policies for us and Need the cash. "

'Or maybe it's all a publicity stunt. "

'Oh, come on. My life is worth more Than a publicity stunt. " Stu

nt. Oh, damn.

'Wait. I think I know what's happening. I Just Need to think about it. "

'That makes me feel reassure. "

'Enough with the sarcasm. "

'Wow. "

'Can not you follow simple instructions'? "

'My modeling Days Are Over. "
'Look, all you do is Have to Wait Until morning, ok? I'll show you then. I just want to sleep now. My brain is not working well. We're shaken and scared. Let's sleep. "

I was way more sensible Than I Had hoped. Emotional Growth, as my mother always Called It, Was Never one of my strong points. But I Was the mature one in the situation, sincere Kamenashi Was Just a bunch of Nerve.

'I'm Not Having Sex With You. " Did I

Such come off as a lecherous bastard?

'They Were jokes. Do not take it Seriously. "

Somehow, I doubter He Was Able to Do That.



I Might Have Been a jittery thespian, pero Kamenashi Could Make sure coffee. We sat down

in front of my computer, I Showed him the files and wait.

'I do not see it,' He Said after ten minutes of awkward silence That I Spent dozing off.

'Miyake's a stuntman! Get it? "

'No.'

'It's a stunt! They Needed him to plan the incidents, but ... You know, I'll go talk to somebody I know. You just stay here and Do not do anything crazy. "

I Thought I Was the Crazy One. That much WAS clear.

'Okay... '

'Call your bodyguards if you feel lonely, will you? "

I Threw me a pillow Before I left.

Notes: Written for Yuletide.


If life Was the kind of movie that's Oscar bait - epic, bleak and depressing - I Would Have come back from Africa a broken man. He hasn't seen nice stuff and Some scenes Are sewn on his eyeballs, But he's far from broken. He's Learnt how to fix houses and how to build schools.

He's full of energy and Yankumi can see That as soon as I Appears Before Her. He's leaning against a door frame and wearing an expensive suit. His arrogant smile Lacks all the self-doubt it Used to Contain and she barely Refrains from jumping at him and Giving him the hug of the century. She tells herself

is Because he'd find it embarrassing.



*** If life Was An inspirational movie - the kind That has teachers on it - her students Would Be a bunch of unfits and a gallery of hot topic issues. But Are They for the first time in ages, is teaching Yankumi girls.

Girls That bully. That Make Bad GirlsFalling Into You Yankumi Some flight of stairs down or a fake pregnancy. Instead, the girls soon start making comments in class and uncomfortable giggling Any Time They see 'Sawada-sensei. "

Yankumi Does not Know whether to feel bullied or flatterer.



*** If life Was a slapstick comedy - and Apparently, Yankumi's is - Would students her fateful Arrange meetings lunches and romantic. Themselves they'd start putting in danger just to Give Shin excuses to save the day - Even if it ends with Yankumi saving Mostly it INSTEAD -. They do

. Does Yankumi

notice.



*** If life Was a Jane Austen book - snark, balls and social commentary - they'd get together after months of misunderstandings and misdirection. Their Relationship Would grow slowly, filled with jokes and inner changes. She'd pretend to like somebody else first and I Would not know why it bothers him.

Yankumi 'falls in love' with a stranger - another teacher, Another cop - Shin But does know. He knows and Then He acts.


*** If life Was a Hollywood movie - the good kind, the kind with brand new Classic Stars and Technicolor - Would the sunset fill the screen, they'd be alone and the violins' Would melodies surround Them.

Instead, they're hiding in the school gym, the footsteps of Yankumi's students Are Getting dangerously close and There's no soundtrack to be found.

She Does not Care. It's the best kiss she has ever had. CHT
*** If life MLXC
Was a porn movie - with bad production values and groan-worthy puns - they'd Be perfect and nobody Would Fall break off beds or lamps.

Instead, it's oddly comfortable, more giggles Yankumi and Shin Than Should she drops the 'experiment lead man' act quickly.

It's perfect in Its Own Way. ***



If Were A shoujo manga life - and if she Was a high-school student - she'd Be running with a toast in her mouth and Then she'd run into the love of her life and fall on top of him.

For the first time in months, she CAN stay in bed and she Would, if she Were not full of energy any day, Any time. She gets up, cleans her teeth, to the mirror and smiles Then you realize he's still in her bed.

I lazily drags one arm from below-the-sheets and waves to her.

It isn't a shoujo manga, pero, after all, toast is overrated.

Fishsticks Southpark Stream [The Edukators] Aber ich nicht vergessen, dass is ein gibt Morgenrot

Not a word to Compensate

Peter Remembered Jan's clenched jaw. Their quick, grasping hands. The sweat. The gasps. Their lips bitten. Maybe I
dog forget it, Peter Thought. Maybe the ticking bomb inside Jan's head Could Be stalled.
I Did not Know Exactly When Jan's world Had crushed. Had Something broken inside him and have filled the void with words - Words That Peter Did not Understand. So Peter stopped thinking. I ACTED and historical hormones did the talking.

It Was When It Began Almost over. Jan Peter held tight and Jan's breathing Went back to normal. They Did not speak.
They Were friends. They Did not need to.
Yes, Who Must you leave That You Can not Control Everything


Peter WAS fun, Even If I Had she wisher Sometimes hidden depths. When She Was with him, the city wasn't as gray, noise - cars, phones, screaming - Was music and she laughed. She Laughed and played pretend. She Could not match him. She Was deadweight. I Planned trips and she Followed. I changed jobs and she Stay a waitress. Another night, another day, I played for the sake of the game. And She Did not Mind When He Bought ice cream or When They ended up in parties she only Partially enjoy. When They Were

together, WAS Debt only to her life.

the tilt of your smile







The slow synchronized cadence WAS silence for him. It Caressed His eardrums and calm down the rage pulsing, the drowning loathing. Fists Could Be His hands, the world made sense for a while.

He closed His Eyes. People are just people When the music is good. It Did not Matter Who He Was, He Was Because everybody else. I glanced around and I saw a couple hugging, some friends singing. I saw a guy friendless as lost as He Was and as a woman dancing alone as He Was. And I saw a lonely girl with a frown and a smile.







Finding out the secrets words

Will not Tell





It's like ants swarming around you Not That You pretend to see, Because Not to care about the cast has-been said already.

You feel the ants, Their murmurs When you see Them. They gossip. They giggle. Are Their unmistakable looks. So you tell yourself it's just a ploy, a ploy by the Capitalist pig in September. Would Jan. He's the MOST upstanding guy you know. His Morals Are His Only Hope. Would Jule, either. She's open and honest. She loves you. Do Becomes Her Lies .. They Would

.

That You cling to hope and bite your lip And Then realize it's meur duty. They need you. That's all that matters.








Simply Be
But for you and you and I



Them You want to ask. Every time They leave the room. Every time They joke about times Those That Are fog just for you. Every time you want to kiss Either of Them, you want to ask. Will you? Could you ask

Them? Could you tell him?

Can you do whatever you want? Are There boundless

paths or Are the hurdles still there? So what if

growing suspicion That is true? What if Their past is Closer Than You Thought?
What if you're dancing a waltz revolving?

Waltz is a dance for two, But you see the third option: tea for me, tea for you - tea for three.

Will you take it?









You can feel my lips undress your eyes

Your skin is soft and your laugh is addictive. And your arms hold me tight and I forget. But he's still there. In you. You're still him, no matter how close we get. I'm still

him too, no matter how alone we are.

So you kiss me and your lips taste of him - a taste you do not know I Recognize, a taste I will not Admit I know. You talk and it's his voice. Your Eyes Have His blue look. My Hands Have historical touch. I

s of the sea.

But with no pain, no gain There is May and it take us time, But we will get There.
It's a promise.









There is no peace, There's only sun






'll kiss and hold and work and live. Our hearts will beat together and Our Voices Will Be The Same. You touch, we touch and entangle. We do not care anymore. Numbers Are meaningless. One, two, three, fifteen. It's the Same. It's just that. Touching, feeling. Every nerve in Our body is alert. We tremble. We shake. We never stop.
We sleep, we'll dream. We Open Our Eyes, we'll wake up.

Now it's warm and sunny. We've run away Towards The Sun, Towards the sea. Where colors hurt your eyes, your ears WHERE sound Murders, Where the air tastes to delicious.

'll live life. We Will not watch it pass. We'll make it happen.









Well, Your Faith WAS strong proof
But You Needed



We make promises all the friends make. We all lie as Lovers Are wont to do. As it has always Been, But Not as it always will be. Because we will never stop Being the Same guys, we will never forget the hot, scorching summer of youth. The decaying fall will never catch up with us. We Shall Never Be winter. We'll stay bright
ght and brazen. No guilt too strong to stop us, not too heavy for Our past shoulders.

'll plunge Into the Future. It Holds no secrets, only surprises, only change. And we'll make it happen together.

When the war breaks out, we will Be in the trenches together.









Am Ende der Reise bleiben die, die von Tod am hellichten inmitten lächeln Tag können

The best ideas survive. Some men never change. Some do. Some change back.

You never know. That's the point. Puede guess, But You Can Anticipate life - people - is at heart unpredictable. Let That unpredictableness

ruland your life.

Do not be sorry for What You Do. Be sorry for What You Do not.

Worry about the mistakes you let Happen, Not the ones you commit. They never knew

What Was Coming. Make the best out of it. The first step

is to see the injustice. The second one is to seek Allies and fix it.




This is a call to arms.

A call to arms interlocked in a tight embrace, strong arms to tearing apart what's left. Time is running out. Are the years ending prosper And Then comes the hard part. Then we will rebuild it. This time, We Have the perfect blueprints. We will fail

But The best ideas will live on and Some Day, It'll Happen. Anybody CAN fail. Everybody does.ng.
Let your anger show. Anger is not a bad word Either. Anger Destroys CAN create it after. Anger is always boiling beneath the surface. Recognize it. Use it. Tame it. Toms have the anger and turns it Into energy. Energy Becomes change. They Will not see it coming.

We Must Fight apathy, impotence. That Turn Into Struggle impotence. That Turn Into Struggle ideas. Turn Those Ideas Into Action. Against

're fighting ourselves. Because There Are no theme, just 'us'. No sides, just people. We Forget That, That They forgot. Understand, yet don't justify. Forgive, yet do not let evil actions go unpunished. Change
, yet do not forget the past. Fight, yet do not hate.
Do not let the lady
Overcome general happiness. Do not let pain kill joy.




That's how we lose.
