"Fourth"
He heard, and it was a long time ago since he heard this voice calling him "Fang" he said seeing him coming next to him.
"Or I should call you Iatros?"
"Even Yohan is fine by you"
"I hope the place is as you wished"
Yohan nodded "it is perfect" he looks at the place that was full of people playing "where is Orthrus?" not even waiting for an answer he heard "Asking about me?" and when he look at the side Orthrus was coming wearing his fully red outfit while holding the mask in his hand, at that same moment Fang excused himself leaving the two alone
"Wearing a suit?"
Yohan grimaced "I am really sorry, my mask is under the bridge now"
"Oh yes I heard what happened from Yuki yesterday" Orthrus understands "how do you feel by the way? I called you but Rain answered saying you were having a fever!"
"Rain did?"
"Yes"
That when he remembered that he slept at his car "I slept in his car, but he didn't mention that you called when I woke up"
"Maybe he didn't want to bother you" Orthrus answered but then heard something in the earphone he was wearing "I will check it" he looks at Yohan while wearing his mask "someone is making a scene at the door" then walks away.
Yohan saw him walking away, but then decide to go check it too
///----outside-----///
"How dare you touch me you weirdo? CALL YOUR MANAGER NOW"
Orthrus spoke when he arrives "is everything okay?" but saw who was with the person who was yelling "Rain!"
"Another weirdo, what is this a casino or a cosplay?"
Yohan who arrived last saw the scene, Rain was there with a familiar face, that familiar face was the same man he met with Rain at that 'Pallas hotel restaurant' when he got ditched by Yuki 5 years ago. Not controlling his emotions remembering how rude that guy was he rolled his eyes, but saw Rain looking at him so he looked at Orthrus avoiding the eye contact.
"Rain do you know him?" he laughed in sarcasm "perfect, cut his arm since he touched me with his filthy hand"
Orthrus looked at the guard, and the guard defended "Sir I didn't saw the red-circle heir with him I thought he is an uninvited guest"
Orthrus nodded looking at the guy "today is an only invited guest opening, I am sure there is a misunderstanding here sir!"
"I am not a 'sir' I Am 'David Zix' I can easily buy this whole place"
That when Yohan scoffs laughing from behind because this guy never changes but all of them look at him and Yohan shut his mouth with "ehm…sorry"
"Pretty face…!" the guy name David stepped closer to Yohan side "You don't believe that I can buy this place?" wanting to touch his face but Rain grabbed his hand not letting him
"David, stop, it was an accident"
David rolled his eyes "Rain, stop taking the poor guys side, they are not worthy" he looks at Yohan "but since I saw a pretty face I am all calm now, let's go in and waste some billions" he said and gets in not even bothered by anyone.
Yohan felt annoyed of his actions
"Sorry for this, we were just passing by and he is kind of an addicted to gambling" Rain explains
"No worries" Orthrus says "you are our ally I don't see any problem of you joining us this evening right?" he looks at Yohan asking
Yohan looks at him then look at Rain who was giving him a different looks then usual "em…yeah sure! He is"
"Good! Let's go in then"
Inside, that David guy exchanged many worthy ships to play, sitting on a cards table playing. Rain sits next to him watching him but didn't even bother to play at all. He looks around seeing Lex speaking with Orthrus "excuse me" he said to David and stands heading to his target.
The moment he stands in front of him he asked "can we talk"
Orthrus looks at Yohan "I will be at the CCTV room"
"Okay" Yohan says seeing him leaving, he turns to see Rain looking at him "is something bothering you?"
"You didn't take the drag"
Yohan took a back hearing that "yes, I didn't...how..did you know?"
Rain had that smile on his lips "I can see that you didn't find the mask I put in the car"
"The mask…" that when he got it "you were the one who brought my car back?"
Rain nodded "i took my car out of the river, and took care of yours too"
"I appreciate it" Yohan didn't know what he supposed to say "thank you!"
"Still glad you listens and didn't take it" Rain was still smiling at him and it felt weird since he was giving him the cold shoulder since forever!
"It wasn't because of you…I was…willing to"
"It is fine"
Rain cut him off and Yohan felt embarrassed because he just make it obvious that he listens to his words "I should go…" he wanted to leave and do anything else but Rain grabbed his arm stopping him
"Aren't we going to talk about that?"
"About what?" That when Rain raise his both eyebrows like he is meaning something he should already know "what?"
But the disappointed written on the other face now was visible "did you forgot?"
Yohan was more confused "what are you talking about?"
Having a grimace in his face, Rain frowns leaving in anger back to David
"What now?" Yohan was so confused trying to recall what happened last time, he remembers he was in his car, slept but arrived and goes in his house sleeping! That's it, that all what happened! Is he meaning something before? Still first things first he should go get his mask.
Leaving to the parking he went to his car opening the glove box to find the mask sitting there waiting to be found, Yohan took it looking at the drug needle having a small paper on it "h'e" he reacted taking it and open it reading what written on it.
-Don't do it, stay awake ~ Rain >:3 -
Yohan smiled at the evil emoji at the end he put the paper back and closed the glove hearing his phone vibrating. He took it and saw a message from Orthrus
-You were right he is here-
Yohan smirked knowing who arrived, he looks at himself at the mirror "time to get ready" he said looking at the bag he grabbed before.
------inside the casino
Orthrus came down looking at the guests arriving, both were JiYun and the 2nd Hellhound prince. "What an honor for you two to come here" he says looking at the two who came in with their men holding their guns on public making the people in there getting confused and scared. "But aren't you two exaggerating a little by this entrance?"
The 2nd Hellhound prince smirks "that is nothing compared to exaggerating"
"I see" Orthrus tried to keep it cool "still, welcome and feel free to take any table you want, unless you want to sit on the VIP ward"
JiYun looks at a table with "we will join the red-circle heir" and both walks there passing by Orthrus.
Except Rain and David the people who were on the table immediately left scared, the 2nd Hellhound prince sits there in front of the two and JiYun sits beside him. While Orthrus came sitting on the side having the red circle on the right and the Hellhounds on his left.
A view you don't see every day.
"You guys didn't find any other table?" David says annoyed because he was winning on those who were with him before
"We are sorry to ruin your table but the red-circle heir is much more important to choose another one" the 2nd Hellhound says with a very diplomatic tone "I hope you don't mind"
"Not at all" Rain answer not knowing what scheme he is sewing in his mind
"Shall we play" he said to the girl and she nodded starting to shuffle the cards "is it true that the red-circle is now siding with those people name Hades?"
Orthrus didn't like that tone
"Yes, by my father orders" Rain simply answered looking at his two cards since he was now the one playing, David made an 'o' with his face when he checked the cards with him smiling.
"So we are full enemy now I guess"
"Finally" Rain said betting
"Rain, can't you speak to your father?" JiYun spoke "I know what happened 5 years ago is eating you up from inside, but you know what happened was doomed to happen"
"Oh wait…" the 2nd brother says with a smile betting too "I heard there is someone who looks like my late little brother" he scoffs "don't tell me you sided with Hades because of a face! If we knew back then we could have asked you to get engaged to him not your cousin"
Orthrus spokes "don't blame Rain on this, look around there is so many Hellhounds siding with us too"
The 2nd Hellhound look at Fang who was standing little far among the men who were half having the Hellhounds tattoos in their hands and others wearing masks "I heard, and I think Third was too easy on you all, father should have gave me this case earlier before things gets complicated with the red-circle"
"So you are saying you can easily beat us?" Orthrus was starting to lose his patients
"If not for the red-circle heir sitting here today I would sent a missile here before my entrance" the 2nd Hellhound saw his cards losing and sign to play again "aren't all of the workers here are traitors to the Hellhounds, they should be a massacre in here tonight, and if Rain here accept to leave first I will be glad to do it"
"Traitors?" Orthrus looks around "I don't see any, those are my men, and others are your brother men"
"Fourth is dead" the 2nd Hellhound informed looking at Rain "do dead people come back to live?"
But Rain who was still playing notice someone coming in between the crowed, his eyes couldn't believe it he stopped mid-way not throwing the cards and that action made them all look behind…
"No way…" the 2nd Hellhound said shocked "Fourth?"
