[RL with Zechs, Tyki and Rufus]

[clockmaster]

Hakuba shivered, the weather wasn't any better now than when he left Gaia a few days ago. He nearly killed himself driving the iced road, he still needs more driving lessons. The detective couldn't use the flying broom, he gave it to that demon woman, Trish, anticipating that Elphaba would not mind. He imagined that the witch would symphatize with another woman who was being hunted like her, and, after all, the broom will fly back to it's original owner if something goes wrong. If not, he would just have to deal with another psychopathic friend.

The boy realy hoped that all was going well on the Ark...Tyki was really alive, and he remembered Zechs and the community. Such a relief. Hakuba was still worried and a bit scared, but damn him if he was going to left that kind of emotions to take control. Hakuba was in front of Zechs's door now, he had the keys of the apartmen, but he hesitated. Zechs was less than joyful when he prevented him to go to his lover's side for the second time. Knowing that trying to trying to delay the inevitable was useless, he opened the door carefully.

"Zechs?"

"I had no wish to fight you," Zechs said coldly, not moving from his spot in the center of the room. It was clear when examining the wires from the helmet that the man was pretty much tethered to the living room, which might have been a good thing for Hakuba. He continued in the same calm, icy tone, "You had insulted my person. You had challenged me when I asked for an apology. You taunted me."

His sword waved to the side, once, then he flicked the tip downwards again, testing the weight of the fake blade in his hand. Even now, with ZERO coursing through his brain, he didn't actually want to hurt Hakuba. Only teach the boy a little humility and respect. Show him how in control he was - and all of his strength. Perhaps he'd never get an apology from him again, but Hakuba surely would never dare insult him in such a way again.

"And then you came here, when I advised it to be unwise. So, should I tell you to meet me in the living room, Detective? Or will you once again do the opposite of whatever I would tell you?"
