"I know you didn't," Nouikketsu said coldly, pulling Red down from his shoulders and strapping the deviant into a flame- and magic-retardant straight-jacket. "But I am the warden and I can arrest whomever I wish when they warrant it." He placed the unconscious dragon into a cell and ordered another guard to keep watch.
The snake brushed Claud aside as he strode to his office, removing his trenchcoat and tossing it onto the badly-upholstered couch that stood a few feet in front of his desk.
"Did you want to debrief me on something?" Nou demanded, sitting down in his chair and propping up his legs while he picked up a pen and began doing paperwork. He pulled on some reading glasses and turned on his desk lamp.

“ Then what may I ask did that kid do to piss you off? Is this some plan of Delano’s? Nou I’m trying to win the people not make them run in holy terror of us. This isn’t the coven of witches anymore.” He spoke, his tail lashing a bit behind him. He dared to follow the man into the study, moving closer then most would. He looked a little hurt into the mans eyes as well before speaking once more.
“ And sometimes…. I wish you would treat me a little more like a lover then your boss….” He confessed. Remembering Maverick telling him he should talk to Nou more… get to know him better but how could he if he always tried to act like some worker of his…. And nothing more.

Nou suddenly let out a dangerous snarl at Claud as the witch spoke of treachery and coldness. The snake bared his fangs and forked tongue, dropping all guise as his ears tapered themselves to points and his black nails lengthened. He stood up, the talons dragging across the wood of his desk. "If you accuse me about Delano one more time...," he hissed, breaking off his sentence. A paperweight exploded on Nouikketsu's desk with the force of a gunshot, sending shards of porcelain gutting into the steely file cabinets. Nou's acid-green eyes glittered as he stared Claud down.
"Do you want to die, Claudius?" the torture master snapped. "Because that is what'll happen if they find out about us. It would be better if I had everything under control because, unlike you, I can't be killed in the many ways you can. I am here because I slaughtered my family, everything I had! Why don't you just let me work my contract and you do your own thing? I will act like a lover to you when I am no longer burdened by this...by this fucking war!"
His hand began to turn into a smoky shadows, and black tendrils snaked into the sclera of the shinigami. "Right now, I need to focus. I can't have you on my mind right now...or else I'll lose it. Do you want me to die, Claudius? Do you want me to fade away?" He held up his hand, glaring at the darkness as it solidified back into his pale, taloned part once again.

“ But which war is it that you speak of?” Claudius asked him, unsure sometimes if this was the real war… or if he spoke of a emotional one instead. He slowly dared to draw close. Tenderly trying to let his hand graze past his lovers. Trying to see if he would allow him to pull him into a kiss in that moment of anger.
“ Never do I want to loose you, but at times I wish there could be more moments together.” He whispered. Leaning close, and praying in his mind that he would not turn away from him. Once he got a reaction out of the man… he would ask what he was doing with the kid. It was just a kid, what in the world could it of done….

Nou's black talons clasped around Claud's wrist, pushing it back as the male attempted to stroke the snake's cheek. The interrogator sighed heavily, leaning back and sitting on the desk itself. "Everything is a war," he grunted, staring at his boots.
"And one day, I will no longer be here for you and Freya. I will fade away." Nou lifted up his flinty viridian-hued eyes, boring into Claud's. "Our moments together...must wait." He looked away.

Claudius looked away at this. Feeling hurt a bit at his words.
“ Then I will follow you into death. Nou I will move this world and tear it apart, no matter what you say. I want to be there for you, and help you through any trouble you may find. Even if I have to sell my soul for it.” The man prophesized to the demon. He bit back a tear that threatened to fall, he just wished he understood the man better, though how could he when the man wouldn’t let him in.
“Just don’t kill the kid okay. I don’t know what you have against him but no child deserves to be harmed.” He spoke softly as he turned his back to him. Allowing his form to hide once more behind the stone face of Claudius the coven leader. He pushed up his glasses, the low light reflecting off of them and hiding his eyes.
“ I’m a determined man Nou, I didn’t get to this point in my life cause I knew how to quit. If I wanted something, I obtained the power to do it. No matter what the cost.” He whispered darkly. His voice more collected then when he was in gargoyle shape for he was still learning how to hide his emotions in that form.

Nou grasped Claud's hands. "That's unnecessary," he said, pressing them against the witch's chest. "You must stay for Freya..." His hands released Claud's, rising up to hesitantly touch the man's face. Nou finally let out a soft sigh and touched his lover, only to frown when the other mentioned the 'kid'.
"Child?" the snake scoffed. "That asshole is Adrian's little pet dragon." He thumbed in the general direction of the cell. "Adrian's gotten himself into trouble...again." Nou shook his head and slid off the desk, not looking at Claudius as the witch continued to speak.
"Yes...I know..."

“ Freya will grow up, and one day she will no longer need me. I’ll find a way so we can stay together. Just you wait.” He assured Nou with a bit of that dark mysterious smirk almost as if to say he already had some idea of what he would do. His mind though was quickly jostled all the same as Nou revealed the kids true origin.
“ What?” He asked simply from behind his tinted glasses, his face contorted into horror and panic.
“ That fucking thing is RED! How the fuck did he obtain a human shape after all this time! Also for that matter what the hell did Adrian get himself into this time?” Claudius asked highly unpleased with this current situation. -----------
After all the arguing and yelling, Red finally rolled over with a bit of a moan. Groggy eyes looking about as the young boy found himself unable to move.
“ Wha..” He gurgled only to lay there as still as ever. It would take a bit before he recovered full movement of his own body. Oh how he was going to get revenge for this.

Nouikketsu raised his brows. "I'm glad to see you have a change of heart about the 'child'," he grunted dryly. The snake pulled his trenchcoat off, revealing UnderArmour that caressed his firm, toned muscles as he strode down the dark, deserted hallway to lead Claudius over to Red's pen. He paused in front of the dragon, nothing that the brat was starting to awaken. One black talon flicked toward Red boredly, as if to say Take care of this shit.

Red rolled over to look at a shape that had stood before his cell. Great he thought silently, fucking Lothair bastard.
“ Get me out of this! I have things to do you fucker!” Red cursed to the demonic force that was in the room. Red eyes looking at Nou with a vengeance.
“ Red?” Claudius asked the male unsure still, looking into those devious eyes though told him otherwise. So often had he seen those eyes starring at him. Almost laughing as he hiked his leg on a piece of furniture.
Red simply starred up to the teal orbed witch with a frown.
“ I have no clue who your talking about. “ He spoke trying to play dumb as usual. Claudius just frowned, eyes still upon him.
“Yeah it’s Red, those fucking eyes say it all.” He spoke unamused as the little one started to curse.
“ Asshole! I didn’t want to come here! Why the hell are you doing this to me! I’m a royal familiar just so you know! Adrian will kill you if you hurt me!” He smirked, knowing at least his master would protect him as always. Though not in that shape, they pygmy was trying desperately to change back to his real form but sadly could not. The jacket making it impossible for his form to return to normal with it’s construction.

Nouikketsu unsheathed Aurindhir and aimed it at Red. The blade sang happily, its aura thrashing like a waving cat-o-nine-tails. "Shut up. Adrian won't do a goddamn thing," he barked. His slits swiveled and he saw Ebrithil on the ground, slithering towards him with a look of 'can I eat him?' Nou shook his head and frowned, picking up the constrictor and wrapping him around his neck.

Red hissed deeply at Nou as he pointed his sword at him. His chest puffing up as he tried to snort fire but the constraints of the jacket were preventing him from reacting much.
“ I haven’t done anything, so why do you bound me so?!” He interjected, trying to figure a way out, his red eyes searching desperately for anything or anyone that could help him.
----------
Claudius looked over to Nou at this. He was right, he hadn’t done anything besides being annoying. Could you condemn someone for such a minor task the raven haired witch thought cooly to himself.
“ You do know, if we hurt his familiar we will be hearing that man whine for months like broken record right? Remember the last time someone tapped over one of his precious anime tapes?” He reminded Nou, remembering the constant whining at his office desk about how the guilty should be punished for such a crime against his personal property. How the man pouted and moped as if someone had just killed his mother in cold blood, and that was all over a god damn TAPE!
“ I’d hate to see what we would endure if we hurt his precious pet. Sentient or not.

"Stupid klepto," Nou grunted, tossing the wall he had nabbed from Red earlier over to Claud before sheathing his blade. "Whatever..." He turned away majestically and stormed off to his office door. "You deal with that ingrate. I need to hunt down that ass' master."

“ Give Shinzo a call! He’s been hanging around him a lot lately!” Claudius called after the man as he looked down to red. Crouching a bit as he produced a stick and started to poke him a bit.
“ I should so BBQ you since I have the chance brat. You know how many floors you have ruined with your constant pissing!” He pointed out as Red smirked a bit at him.
“ You know, I could do it right now if you keep poking me.” He challenged as the witch frowned even more upon this.
“ I should of let Nou killed you.” He complained as he got up to leave the furless rat to his prison. Pffft he’d go have dinner with Maverick then, hey he didn’t have to eat alone and more and like hell he was going to pass up a opportunity for a proper dinner.
