More Then Just Friends lThe Dysfunctional Odditiesl
As usual I'll do my little tradition, nonsensical ramblings and warnings.
First of all if your under 18, I personally don't care, But don't blame me because ''YOU'' decided to go to a site not intended for lil' kids *Sighs*
Todays tribute? Rommel the desert fox, my favorite world war two officer.
Special tribute - Arctic Fox 91, ArcticPup23, foxpaws and LibaHunt for there comments!!!
Try listening to- *Totally non related with this story* No more Mr.Nice Guy *A song by the practically legendary Alice Cooper*
Or perhaps ''Something better'' by Marianne Faithful. *That's actually song name*
As usual comments are awesome! Giving me comments is like giving a man dieing of hunger a feast.
Now at last, let the useless ramblings come to an end!
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Oklain stared at the mirror and sighed, once again he had his daily abuse, he hated running errands for his Father, every time he had to leave the house Oklain was confronted by the same three people, who always inflicted wounds on him. Today it was being clawed around the chest then punched in the gut numerous times.Oklain began to question why the hell he continually let them live, and how he always let them beat him up.
Oklain was angered, all around him were assholes that were entirely unaware Oklain could have them killed, yet if they knew Oklain had them in his arms, they'd be begging for mercy. This fueled his hatred only more, Oklain took some liquor from one of the cabinets and drank it.
There had to be more than life then this, he could have plasma screen tv's, he could have a mansion, he could have any damned desire, yet he found himself getting the shit beat out of him, and alcohol to suppress his emotions, and lately, outbursts of anger.
Then there was always people comparing him to his father, always his father known as the smart one, always him. If they didn't appraise Oklains father then they said on how Oklain himself should goto hell, just because he's the son of a mob boss
Oklain had a theory on what happened to Lexiharin...but he didn't wish to tell Sekhai. The Ocelot was entirely predictable, Sekhai's suspicions of Oklain's moods, personality, and even intentions, Oklain knew Sekhai would probably come, he always thought Oklain was connected to every problem, and even every threat.
Oklain stared at the mirror, and looked at himself...
And sadly, Sekhai was right.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Sekhai dialed the number for Lexiharins house, it was 2:00 P.m, and Sekhai was as usual worried, Last night Sekhai forgot to check Lexiharin if he had any cuts, and when Sekhai walked home he noticed blood on his hand. Sekhai waited as the phone rang, finally someone picked it up *Which was probably Lexiharins mother* It would appear that Lexiharin was still unconscious. Sekhai sighed as he put down the phone and sat on the couch.
Sekhai would have asked if he could wait there for Lexiharin, but Sekhai knew the foxes parents were homophobic, and they were aware Sekhai was gay. Sekhai probably could see Azrain, but as he thought of doing so, he was curious if Oklain had a clue on why Lexiharin was unconscious so long.
It was clear that Sekhai took off towards Oklains house, as usual Sekhai ran.
After running what would seem 45 minutes Sekhai reached Oklains house, he knocked on the door and waited.
''Apparently you came like I thought you would, hamster'' Oklain's voice wasn't a grumble... it was a sarcastic dark tone, Sekhai knew something was wrong...Sekhai never really wondered what Oklain was like on a bad day...but he was definitely more miserable then he usually is.
Sekhai followed Oklain inside the house, the smell of liquor was even more overwhelming then usual, Sekhai probably could get drunk just by the smell if he stayed there long enough.
''Oklain is there something wrong?'' Even Sekhai was surprised at how much concern was in his voice.
''I rather suffer in silence'' Oklain muttered. as he began to walk towards his bar.
''Lexiharin's still not awake''
''I figured he wasn't'' Oklain didn't seem to care much.
''Really how?'' Sekhai asked.
''Cause you actually came to see me''
''Hey I was going to see you eventually today even if Lexiharin was awake''
''Really??''
''Of course do you think I'm gay with him or something?'' Sekhai instantly was aware of the irony.
''I never thought you were...'' Oklain paused.
''Good''
''I just know you are''
''What?''
''I knew Azrain, he kinda told me a few things on how to know if someone was gay or not''
Sekhai Sighed, Azrain really should've tried not to share those things to everyone. Sekhai quickly pictured Oklain and Azrain as friends, depressed, straight, and an alcoholic being friends with a cheerful, gay, clean Husky. Well...at least Sekhai thought Oklain was straight.
''Um are you straight?'' Sekhai knew the question was entirely stupid.
''Why else do you think Amber comes here? the female voice you over heard? or do you think that was a guy on helium with plastic boobs''
''Kinda figured''
''Oh it's one of those questions'' Oklain got more liquor.
''How do you drink so much?'' Sekhai asked Curiously.
''Didn't I tell you not to question why I drink?'' Oklain grumbled as he poured some Rum
''I'm not questioning why, You drink so much but you never black out or throw up''
''After drinking so much one kinda tends to get immune to those things''
''Are you like depressed all the time or something?''
''You never stop asking questions, do you?'' Oklain glared at Sekhai.
Sekhai figured he must've pissed Oklain off even more, maybe it was why he stopped asking so much things out of curiosity.
Oklain scratched his head.
''Sorry, Are you really sure it's worth while at all to know everything about me?'' Oklain poured some liquor, it appeared to be traditional rum.
''Well I think it's wise we at least know a few things about each other, aren't you a bit tired of me practically seeing you as an enemy?''
''Hmm fine, I suppose I can get a burden off my chest as well, Though I feel a bit selfish speaking of my problems''
Oklain must've liked putting extra drama in his life, that or he was trying to be wise, in a drunk way.
''Oklain sent me to a mental hospital so I would be safe from rival mobs while he was in prison, sense you can't even bring a pen in there after all'' Oklain devoured some of the rum.
''I knew I would be there for awhile, I decided I'd just act calm and hopefully they would let me out'' Oklain added.
''What did your father even sign your problem was?''
''I actually don't know my self...probably Unstable, Sense I was in the place without much of a choice I decided to at least get some therapy, someone I know had died before I went there, I'm not sure whether the therapy helped, but eventually I got over the death of my friend''
Sekhai seemed to have been thinking something.
''Do you have a comment Sekhai, you can say it, especially if I'm going on an ego trip and you wish me to stop''
''I'll just wait until your finished'' Sekhai added.
''Ok then...I really am not used to talking about my self so much...Well at first I was calm, and I claimed I was fine, but they wouldn't let me out, must've thought it was just the calm before the storm. The lights began to irritate me, I was born with a black iris so they actually hurt my eyes, all the time the white walls.. the lights, I began to be irritated and desperate''
''Desperate?'' Sekhai wasn't sure how much he expected Oklain to say that.
''Yes desperate, and angered, wouldn't you be pissed off that everyones living their life and yet you find your self in a nut house, probably being forever scarred as the insane all because your father decided to kill a cop?''
Sekhai was fully aware Oklain knew who that cop was...
''I actually said let me out or else my fathers going to kill you, maybe I am insane'' Oklain sighed.
''So you drink because of regret?''
''I wasn't finished, sometimes when patients act up they use a specific needle on them, not the tranquilizers but something more, The needle kills a specific type of tissue that reacts to certain emotions, Usually it kills off all emotions, I was lucky that it only got rid of most...''
Sekhai couldn't help but imagine of zombies.
''After you take that specific needle you never have a bad day....or a good one, you just have...well a day. That's why I grumble, it's my standard tone and I can't perform any emotion to actually change it''
''That doesn't make sense, why do you drink then?''
''True Happiness is nothing but an illusion, but a damn fine one. You can have everything but you'll still want something, if you want love you'll probably have them taken away from you just as easily...True Happiness in my opinion is just something we believe is eternal, but is very limited, alcohol usually help suppress such feelings, for me it suppresses my knowledge of just how much feeling I lack''
Sekhai wasn't exactly sure if Oklain made any sense, or if he was just rambling on about random gibberish.
''Nothing can compare, to something that's almost there, thats why I drink''
''Did you make that quote or something?''
''Actually it's a lyric in a song, I just decided to borrow it''
''I just have a question though, which friend of yours died back then?''
''You know when I said me and Azrain used to be friends?'' Oklain seemed to be out of liquor, but he didn't get a refill oddly.
''Yeah...but why?''
''Azrain was always cheerful...well almost always, he had a few problems'' Oklain Replied.
''Problems?''
Finally it appeared that Oklain noticed he was out of rum as he blindly drew the drink to his muzzle, he got up and walked towards the cabinets. After scavenging around, Oklain poured himself more rum then finally returned.
''Everyone has skeletons in there closet...it's just a matter of how other people will judge them''
''I already know Azrain is gay''
''Duh, everyone knows that, I've known him sense I was 9, you think the best I have to offer of a dark secret is over something that small like he's gay?''
Sekhai never knew there was someone that was straight and actually tolerant of gays...this actually came as a surprise to him.
''When your friends with someone long enough, you really wouldn't care if they are gay or not'' It would appear once again, Oklain had answered Sekhais thoughts.
''Azrain had a brother, his name was Lyon thats who I was depressed over, he died unexpectedly''
''Azrain had a brother that died?'' Azrain never spoke of this to Sekhai, but he could see why.
''Yes, and well...they weren't just brothers to each other, I once even caught Azrain on top of Lyon, kissing him''
''Is that possible?''
''It's called incest, I actually remained there friend though, 'Cause they were my only friends, regardless of them probably sleeping with each other.
Sekhai only remained silent.
''I advise you don't judge them, I was depressed for 6 months about Lyon's death, Azrain had it worse, after I got out of that hell hole of a place Azrain didn't speak to me, hell he never did speak to me sense then, thats why you never hear him talking about me''
Oklain seemed to be blamed for everything, Sekhai began to wonder if a lot of things he was blamed for he was even relevant to.
''Hell Klergans not even his father, Azrain lost his father as well, his mother sure gotten over the tragedy a lot faster then Azrain, it took her only 2 months to get over it practically''
''How did he die?''
''Murdered, this time my father wasn't even related to what happened, me and Azrain left, his mother was at a friends house playing cards I think, When we came back he had a bullet in his throat, and his father had one in the head''
''Was the killer caught?''
Silence filled the room, Sekhai didn't like the silences sudden arrival.
''It turned out it was a corrupt cop, she's dead now, any guesses who?'' Oklains voice was filled once more with that dark sarcasm...
''You think my mother killed Azrain? do you know how insane that theory sounds?''
''And Oklain is quite mad as well, but he's been right almost all the time....er I mean my father when I say Oklain''
''Hate him that much?''
''I can't even look him in the eyes, I guess we're even, you hate my father and I hate him too''
''Why does he act like that anyway? Your father seems younger then you do''
''He never had to go through being in a mental institution over someone elses mistakess yet, or beaten in almost a daily basis''
''I suppose...and what do you mean beaten on a daily basis, I don't see any more cuts on you...''
''My chest is full of claw marks, I'm beginning to think it's time I dropped the hammer on their sorry ass''
''You mean your gonna actually abuse your power and get your father to kill them?''
''They'll do worse to me if they find out I'm actually related to Oklain''
''When you speak of your father like that you make it sound like your announcing your self but in third person''
''Meh I don't care''
''Didn't figure you would...''
''I don't care about a lot of things''
''Fully aware''
Oklain got up to get some more liquor, this time though instead of bringing out rum he got some Vodka, as the wolf returned Sekhai finally decided to ask Oklain what he was planning to in the first place.
''When do you think Lexiharin is going to wake up?''
''I knew you came to see me for something like that''
''I'm just asking, you don't have to take everything the wrong way'' Sekhai sighed.
''Truthfully I don't think he's going to wake up'' Oklain stated with a lack of any emotion.
''Erm why do you think that?''
''Simple, his pulse is slow...to slow to be considered normal, I don't think he's in a coma''
''Then what?'' Sekhai wasn't sure why he was frightened, what did Oklain know? he was probably wrong anyway.
''10 years ago during that war Between Germany and America, 3 years after it, In the U.K some police found the bodies of two German civilians, they were in an almost lifeless state, but they were still breathing. They decided to ship them to the hospital, It's never been reported they woke up, They discovered that it was either an injection or a pill of some sort. The British found out though the German civilians were both members of the Jackals, so they aren't wasting there time to help them, they probably were transported to a German hospital still not moving''
''You think someone gave him a pill?''
''No I think ''someone'' gave him an injection, the couch you and Lexiharin were on is full of blood, of course you might have always gotten the cut''
''Not really...''
''Then most chances he's dead, my swell save his parents the trouble and just tell them to send him in a coffin or to a hospital'' Once again Oklains voice didn't have any concern.
''Aren't you at least a bit worried?''
''If you recall I said they gave me an injection, I probably wouldn't care if you dropped dead right in front of me.
''Well...'' Sekhai paused.
''Well what? I'm cruel? cold?''
''There must be something you care about... why else would you live if you felt nothing''
''Oh I feel things, Just not as much as I should sense.''
''Then you do care about something''
''Yeah, myself''
By now Sekhai knew Oklain wouldn't give him a real answer of whatever he did care about...that is if he did.
The one thing more surprising than knowing just how selfish Oklain actually is, was the ringing of a phone, Sekhai figured it was Amber. Sekhai didn't think much of it, but he decided maybe this should be his cue to leave, Oklain was more miserable then usual.
''I suppose I'll just leave in case you have any more important calls'' Sekhai waved good bye then walked away.
''Ok Sekhai''
As Sekhai stepped out the door way he realized Oklain actually called him by name, instead of ''Ocelot'' like he usually did, Sekhai could feel an odd friendship was forming, though they'll still always be at each others throats. Sekhai wanted to see Lexiharin, but he was bombarded with recalling on why he didn't in the first place, soon the memory of Oklain saying Lexiharin will not wake up haunted him as well. Sekhai couldn't just stay home doing nothing though...but he couldn't deny no matter what he was going to do today would not take his mind or worry off of Lexiharin. If Oklain told the truth about Azrain then maybe he could dispense some helpful advice, even if he did sleep with his brother.
Oklain walked towards the phone and finally picked it up.
''Hello Oklain'' Sadly it was the voice of his father.
''Wish another errand?''
''Yes, Resiren told me plenty of things, it's all to clear he is part of the rival mob, luckily though this grants me an opportunity, that fox is in the hospital, I wish you to tell him he is hired, and of course question him''
''You actually expect me to beat someone up that's already injured?''
''Of course not, that's just optional, ask him, if he doesn't answer it's fine... as long as he is fully obligated to pledging loyalty to us''
''It'll be done Oklain'' Oklain hung up the phone and as he did he heard a faint ''That's Father'' coming from the phone.
Oklain sighed, he could easily get a taxi to the hospital, but his worry was returning back home and meeting the annoying gangsters, entire wanna be's who always beated him up.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The taxi to the hospital took only 5 minutes, sadly though the damn thing getting to Oklains house took 8. The Taxi rode of towards the hospital and Oklain only sat in silence, this was usual for him though. He walked in the hospital and instantly it had that irritating sense and feeling that he hasn't felt sense a year ago. The familiar scent of sterilization was very overwhelming in the hospital, and the hospital its self was filled with the expected people being gloomy and sick, everyone entrapped in there own occurring dramas and situations, in there own worries. Oklain wasn't surprised but as he walked to the registration a portion of people were staring at him, they must've thought he was his father.
Oklain knew how weak he was, but he was always aware, that just at when they stared at them a sensation of fear swept them, it was like he was wearing a Nazi uniform, the power...many people mistook him for his father...so why didn't he ever appreciate it more?
Oklain as he thought of that finally came up with a conclusion on why the bastardizing three always beated him up, it wasn't because he shared the same name as his father, it's because they wanted to watch a wolf that appeared dominant to cringe in fear, it was all humiliation...for there own amusement.
Oklain reached the registration, and as soon as he got there he instantly asked where Hall was, the nurse checked the list of patients and after a brief silence gave Oklain the coordinates. Walking down seemingly endless corridors of diseases and ailments, memories of Oklain when he was in the ''other'' hospital began to form.
Oklain, despite being entrapped in his thoughts instantly took notice to the room Hall was in. The wolf entered and as he did he was greeted by the fox.
''You must be his son'' Hall sighed.
''Yes I'm here to question you, so it seems the plan's actually working, he doesn't know'' Oklain replied.
''I don't understand your plan, You wanted us to sedate him, so we could try and wake him up, give him to your insane father so he would give him back?!''
''I don't think you should've done what I asked if you don't know my plan''
'"I got shot for your plan which so far is complete gibberish and has no point, just tell me dammit''
''Oklain originally planned something sorta like mine, he wanted me to kill Lexiharin, make Oklain find Lexiharins dead body and give it to Sekhai, claiming it was the rival gang''
''And he was hoping Sekhai would be thankful Oklain ''tried'' to save Lexiharin so he could manipulate him?''
''Pretty much''
''I checked for that antidote you gave him, and your plan still lacks in sense''
''Well I didn't want to actually kill Lexiharin, Oklain's supposed to only give me errands, not assassinations, especially on people younger then me, I handed him an antidote for the sedation, and I was in hopes when we used that injection on him the antidote would've worked''
''So your plan?!''
''Sedate him with the injection, which technically would kill him, and soon after like you know, give Lexiharin the antidote, wait for Oklain to get Lexiharin, whom hopefully was unaware we slipped him an antidote, Basically my plan was just a counter to Oklains''
''Why do you call him Oklain, isn't that your name?''
Oklain sighed.
''I just hate calling him father that's all''
''There is a flaw in your plan, what if Lexiharin doesn't wake up as expected and the ocelot finds out?''
''Sekhai is entirely predictable, we'll always be one step ahead of him, and if Lexiharin is dead he would've died by someone else anyway, possibly more painful, and at least we tried''
''Ok...What happens if your father finds out? he's not an idiot''
''I'm his son, I'm sure you'd better worry about your self if he finds out''
''How long have you been ordered to get rid of Lexiharin...and how did you give him the antidote?'' Hall asked.
''Let's just say, when we first met I gave him the antidote, he thought it was liquor so he probably never drank it'' Oklain grinned.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Sekhai waited outside Azrains door, he didn't know why he was there, but then he quickly recalled that he could not see Lexiharin, and his old friends which he used to hang out with, he saw them very rarely ever sense he met Lexiharin. They never were aware that Sekhai was gay, but they'd constantly tell Sekhai ironically, that Lexiharin was a fagot fox.
A few of them were tolerant of gays, and didn't really mind Lexiharin, sense they never spoke to him, and he never spoke to them either, but it was always Mazaran who always pestered Lexiharin, Eventually Sekhai had to pick sides, he defended Lexiharin and as expected, Mazaran wasn't to pleased.
The door suddenly opened, Sekhai was surprised because he didn't remember actually knocking.
''Hey Sekhai'' Azrain greeted kindly.
''Hi...''
''I haven't seen you or your foxy friend around, did something happen?''
''Yes'' Sekhai nodded his head. Azrain was already aware something happened, Sekhai appeared worried and depressed.
''Well come in and tell me about it, Klergan or mom isn't here''
Sekhai caught ''Klergan'' instantly, maybe what Oklain said was true about Azrain, whether it was real or not Sekhai followed Azrain inside, despite Azrains parents not being around though they still began to head towards Azrains room.
''I just like my room, it has everything the living room has...well except for a few odd pictures, a fireplace, and a couch''
Azrain knew Azrain had more things, Sekhais room was probably smaller then Azrains closet if you came in consideration.
''So mind telling me what's wrong? It worries me to see you sad''
''Lexiharin is in some sort of coma, and Oklain thinks he won't wake up''
''That's not good, I was thinking that he could've woken up but...'' Azrain trailed off.
''But what? you think he won't wake up either?''
''Oklain said he won't...It's not a complete no that Lexiharin won't wake up...but I have my doubts...''
''All because Oklain said he won't?''
''You ever ask Oklain something?'' Azrain asked.
''Well..of course, why?''
''You notice how almost every time he was right?, even a question like that reflects off your personality he'll know? First few questions you ask him, you might not entirely believe him, But after enough times you ask him a lot questions you intend to take what he says almost like the bible'' Azrain replied.
Sekhai couldn't deny it, he actually began to trust everything Oklain said, and anything he asked the wolf, Oklain knew.
''After you begin to take your time to think on what Oklain knows, he's smarter then he seems''
''Why, did he know something about you, that he knew?''
''No, it's more like he knew something about you''
''What do you mean about me?''
''Me and Oklain used to actually be friends, until he was sent to the nut house''
Sekhai recalled Oklains version which was until Lyon died.
''When he came out though he seemed like a different person''
''You mean Oklain wasn't always like the way he is today?''
''Well....he never was cheerful like I was, but he wasn't always depressed either, In fact he was sorta like your friend Lexiharin''
''And what does Lexiharin being somewhat like Oklain have to do with him knowing something about me?''
''You know how his father always sends him on errands?''
''Yeah...?''
''I think those errands are finding out of people, who Okl...er his father want dead''
''His father wants to kill me?!''
''Not at all, but Oklain told me on how he thought your mother was a corrupt cop, 4 days later she died''
Sekhai didn't like on how people constantly impied his mother was a corrupt cop.
''What made Oklain think my mother was a corrupt cop?''
''Well if I can remember correctly he said on how she always arrested convicts belonging to his fathers mob, but never the ones of the enemies side, also she would ask anyone belonging to Oklains mob if they were in a car to pull over, when they did often times gun fire would be heard and only they would be the ones dead. Of course that's not at all surprising on how Oklain knew that from watching it, but it's how he always was able to find her, he had her routine marked down, sometimes when she broke out of the routine then he would follow her wherever she went. What's really odd was on how almost every day she had a different gun, previously belonging to members of the mob before they were killed. I couldn't understand why he thinks she killed my parents, I asked him if he thinks my parents were part of any crime and he said no...''
''So he's practically the reason she is dead?''
''Most chances, I don't know why he does those ''Errands'' he says he hates doing them, but he doesn't need to do them, his father actually makes them optional''
Sekhai interrupted.
''Do you think my mother was actually a corrupt cop?''
''Well... there is a lot of facts against her, but you can never be sure, I'm sure Oklain can't always be right''
Sekhai was well aware Azrain was trying to find a way to sneak out of the question.
''Well...if you don't wish to answer you don't have to''
''Huh?'' Azrain looked at Sekhai.
''In the end she's dead so does it really matter?''
''I wish I could've thought that when Lyon died''
Sekhai instantly shot up at the familiar name.
''In case your wondering he is my dead brother, I kept asking Oklain why he thought the murderer killed my brother, you know sense he was almost always right, but he never answered, he always just said ''Probably that bitch with the badge'' I don't know why, but he hates your mother more than his father''
Oklain seemed to be telling the truth about Azrain being in love with Lyon, but Sekhai was curious still, if Oklain actually was right.
''How close were you to your brother Lyon anyway?'' Sekhai asked.
''Well... we got along better then most brothers, we never actually fought, we were a lot more like friends actually...'' Azrain couldn't finish the sentence.
''He was important to you wasn't he?''
Suddenly through what would seem like an impulse Azrain hugged Sekhai, who was confused, and very surprised.
''I think we both are aware we always expect something to stay the same, then it always changes, you never appreciate something until it's gone'' Sekhai could hear muffled whimpers, he was unaware what he should do, Sekhai didn't wish to betray Lexiharin by caring for Azrain as well, he felt guilty, for his next action was returning the embrace to Azrain.
By then he fully forgotten Azrain and Lyon were related, Sekhai just saw them as two huskies that were to be restrained from each other because of a lifeless opinion of what was considered immorally acceptable, and yet were able to still love each other.
Sekhai was being devoured by guilt, but at the same time he was relieved as he had someone to hold on to, The fox he befriended, the one he supposedly loved for four years was probably dead, and yet he found himself hugging this husky he had not even known for a month. Finally though they broke the hug.
''Did you see Lexiharin?'' Azrain asked Sekhai.
''I try to avoid his parents, they don't tolerate gays'' Sekhai sighed.
''Erm...define how much they hate gays''
''Well once Lexiharin told me that they said ''Homosexuals are entirely useless, they waste our air and they can't even reproduce, I'd be damned if they see each other more then a fuck toy'' Sekhai quoted.
''How the hell did Lexiharin hear that?''
''He asked them what they thought of me as a friend''
''Wow, they actually know you are one?''
''Yes...''
''I hate it on how we always see someone elses relationship as a statistic, but our own it always has to be something special, always true love, even if it's only about sex we justify it by saying it's true love''
Sekhai almost thought it was Lexiharin speaking instead of Azrain, either way though he liked Azrains sense of philosophy.
''Personally I think if they don't like gays then they should just deal with it, you probably care about him as much as they do''
''You think they'll actually allow someone they consider a waste of air inside there house?''
''Well... I used to hate all straight people at a time, until Oklain, I began to feel more respect towards them, even if they were all assholes to me except for him''
''This being relevant to?''
''You were his friends for...um...how long were you his friend?''
''Four years''
''See, I'm sure they can put the fact your gay behind them considering you've known there son for four years''
''Thanks Azrain'' Sekhai smiled.
''No problem'' Azrain smiled back.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________
In the Hospital
Hall sighed as he tapped his fingers on the table adjacent to the hospital bed, he was entirely bored and began to wish it was him instead that was sedated other then the younger fox named lex-...lexi-something, being shot wasn't one of his wishes..and it stung like hell.
First when the bullet hit's the flesh you feel the burning heat of the metal being entrapped inside your body, than it's even worse once the air gets to the bullet. He wasn't sure why they didn't just let him out, but he guessed the answer must've been because every time he stood up he felt dizzy.
When they extracted the bullet, it didn't seem like the normal type, it was more like a peice of shrapnel, like some sort of blade, and on the tips of the bullet was a venom like substance, that would explain why he was dizzy every time he got up. By now he was beginning to question if he was even going to live, they couldn't extract all the venom which was consuming his insides.
Suddenly a familiar face appeared, he wasn't sure to be angered or happy at the arrival of his friend Jackal, Resirin.
''Finally decided to see whether I was dead or not?'' Hall didn't even bother hiding his jealousy of Resirins so called, Fiance.
Resirin just remained silent.
''Well Resirin?''
''I was busy, sorry that I couldn't see you earlier'' Resirin finally replied.
''So...how is she?'' Hall asked.
''She is...''
Hall waited for an answer.
''Fine, she's fine''
Hall sighed, she was fine and not at all injured, meanwhile Hall himself could be dying, he didn't believe the bullet could kill him, but it was the venom that he was worried about. Hall knew only in his fantasy life, in a world that's not there would Resirin care of him more, hell there was even proof to support that, Hall was dying and his entirely unharmed fiance was still Resirins first priority.
''Oklain said after he shot you for me to tell you that you were hired if you lived'' Resirin sat down on a chair.
''He's a funny fuck head isn't he, hires me after he shoots me, what type of prick does he think he is?''
''One that controls us, we have to or else he'll kill us''
''If I die will you be here beside me?'' Hall's voice was lower then it usually was.
''What?'' Resirin glanced at Hall.
''Oklains gun uses a different type of bullet, it carries venom on its tips, Maybe I'm just worrying though''
''Well I can't make any promises, how am I to know if you are about to die or not?''
Now Hall really knew he wasn't kidding to himself when he rathered himself being sedated and possibly never waking up.

Sekhai was inside Lexiharins room, and perhaps very lucky that the foxes parents actually allowed him in, he scanned Lexiharins body as he laid unconcious on the bed, Sekhai took notice to Lexiharins right arm which had a wound, that must've been where they used the injection on him.
Sekhai checked the door behind him, it was closed therefor he turned his attention back to Lexiharin and grabbed his arm, it felt warm as expected, so at least he wasn't actually dead, but Sekhais worry was if Lexiharin was going to wake up...
Sekhai sat in silence, he remembered of what Lexiharin told him of how his parents thought of gays, why did this memory keep on returning? And what did they know? Sekhai didn't think of Lexiharin as a fuck toy...soon he also recalled what Azrain said as a reply, to Sekhai it sounded entirely true.
What worried Sekhai the most was the fact he didn't want Lexiharin to die before him telling Sekhai whether he shared the same emotions or not. Many things assured that Lexiharin had feelings towards Sekhai, but he couldn't live just guessing and believing that Lexiharin had loved him, Sekhai needed to know.
Sekhais time was limited, Lexiharins parents may have allowed him in, but they definetely would not let him stay to long. He leaned down to Lexiharin and kissed his muzzle, but made it short in case they suddenly walked in. Sekhai could only wonder what Lexiharin was dreaming, if he was at all.
He left trying to portray no emotion, he wanted to try and make them think he saw Lexiharin only as a friend, nothing more. He left the building and he was unsure if it effected anything, Sekhai walked home in silence, but as he did he wondered...Oklains said he had feelings for only himself, yet he had Amber, had he seen her as someone he loved, or was it all for himself?
And finally at last, the thought had occured to Sekhai, all his friends were practically dysfunctional, One of them was an alcoholic, one had slept with his brother, and one of them was a loner. Sekhai was curious whatever happened to his old life, when his friends had skeletons in the closet, but werent so...dark? But as he thought about it, he enjoyed the life he had with people that couldn't be considerered ''normal'' in society Azrain in one night was more helpful than some of his older friends were in a life time...and suddenly he stopped...why was he thinking of Azrain?

Everything went pitch black, after numerous nightmares it would appear he finally woke up, but the question was...had he?
he could not open his eyes, maybe he was still stuck in one of his nightmares, for he often did dream the scenario of him being paralyzed and unable to move, Lexiharin would only find out by tomorrow whether he woke up...or if he was still caught in a dream.
