Troubled Times
 
Chapter 5
 
By: Vidalark
 
The stench of fear poured off Leon so thickly that it made Totetsu ill. In the period of time that he'd known Leon he had never once associated this scent with the brash American. Even when Leon was faced with the regular horrors of his job Leon had never reeked of so much fear. In truth Leon didn't even seem to fear him even though he really could kill and eat him should he ever really desire to do so. Totetsu might not have cared all that much for the human if at all, but even he would admit that Leon was rather brave in the face of danger and the unknown.
 
**Stupid human why did you come here if you`re this afraid?** Totetsu thought to himself as he watched Leon enter the room.
 
"Hey! How'd that thing get in here?!" a voice shouted. Totetsu ran knowing that if he stayed he'd be caught.
 
************************************************************* ***********
 
Leon couldn't clearly make out the person who sat on a couch in the far end of the room due to the poor lighting. It was obvious to him that the person who had sent the notes and who had raped him had planned it this way.
 
"Welcome, welcome please close the door and have a seat." a very familiar voice said even though Leon couldn't begin to place it. A shadowy hand motioned for him to do the said things which he did quickly not knowing what might happen if he didn't. "Oh and before you get any wild ideas about shooting me I'd like you to kindly remove your gun and unload it so that you won't be able to use it so quickly. Just throw it all on the floor for now when you've finished." this command hadn't been expected so Leon hesitated for a brief moment but eventually did as told.
 
"What do you want from me?"
 
"Your body, heart, and loyalty." the man answered as if the whole situation was something that was very normal. "As I said before you are a very good lay and I'm not about to let you go. You belong to me. I have already left my mark on you."
 
"And if I refuse?"
 
"Simple I kill off all of your friends, family, and anyone else of whom you may care for. Why don't we start with that woman you work so closely with?"
 
"How will I know that you aren't killing them off anyways even if I do what you want me to?"
 
"You'll still interact with them as you always have. You will just need to keep your pretty mouth shut as to what is going on between us."
 
"Sounds like I'm gonna be some kind of pet."
 
"That is one way to think of it."
 
"What if I kill myself?"
 
"Then they die anyways. There will be no way out of this for you." though Leon couldn't see his tormentor's face he knew that there had to be a rather evil grin plastered on it.
 
"Bastard."
 
"You'll learn to love what I can do to your body."
 
"So what are the terms of agreement?" Leon sighed in defeat. The man was right there was no way out that he could easily see and it was his job to protect others.
 
"I've already told you. Your silence and total obedience and I won't harm your loved ones. I have also already taken the precaution to draw up a formal and fully binding contract for you to read and sign." a rolling cart was pushed towards Leon and atop it was a sheet of paper with writing on it, a quill pen, and a small paring knife. Leon picked up the contract and read it.
 
------------------------
 
I Leon Orcot sign the following contract which will bind me to my Master.
 
I am to follow any and all orders given to me to the best of my abilities.
 
I am to remain faithful and loyal regardless of what is asked of me.
 
Should I fail to do my duty then as result one person close to me shall suffer my failure resulting in his or her death of which I am to witness if not carry out. In such instances I will be told before hand what the reason for punishment is so that there are no repeat mistakes made.
 
Should something happen to a person close to me resulting in the death or serious injury of such a person and it was not done as a warranted punishment then I am to be freed. Only a breech of the safety clause will result in the release of my services.
 
Signed~____________________
 
------------------------
 
"So if you kill or hurt someone close to me if I haven't done anything to cause it then I'm free?" Leon hadn't expected to see such a point in his contract.
 
"Well it really is a silly little addition since you are more then likely to be the one to breech contract not I. I loath to do anything which would deprive me of my pleasures. Oh and one more thing you are to dump China Doll."
 
"You mean D?"
 
"Yes. I can't have you having another lover. My sex toys are mine alone. You can visit with him and even remain under his roof for awhile, but any romantic actions or activities you've shared with him are over with. If you can't do this I just might have to get rid of the temptation completely." this was the one thing that Leon couldn't do, but obviously had to. D meant the world to him and yet if he couldn't get rid of D then this sicko would just kill him to get him out of the picture and he would be forced to watch his beloved die or worse have to kill him himself..
 
"Where do I sign and how?" Leon wanted to cry. To save those he loved he would become this man's sex slave and slowly he would die alone with a horribly broken heart, but at least everyone else would be alive and safe and that was what really mattered to him, their continued lives and safety.
 
"Use the knife to draw up some of your lovely blood and dip the quill in it. Sign along the dotted line."
 
************************************************************* ***********
 
"That stupid human is in trouble!" Totetsu shouted as he ran into the pet shop.
 
"Leon?! What has happened?" D asked in a half panicked voice. Totetsu told D everything he knew. The more D heard the more he could guess what was really happening. He had to protect Leon and prove his claim on him before it was to late.
 
"My human! My Leon!" Yue was instantly frantic the second he had heard that Leon was in trouble.
 
"Calm down Yue. Tetsu please take me to Leon. Yue tell the others to follow us. You however are to remain here though so that you don't further injure yourself." the order and tone was clear though other things fought in conflict with these orders.
 
"But I can help. It is my job to protect him, you told me so." the youth protested.
 
"Do as I tell you to Yue." his tone was firm. D heard the soft growl the pup emitted as he grudgingly left to do as told.
 
************************************************************* ***********
 
Leon was about to cut his arm a bit to allow free flow of his blood so that he could sign the contract but he was stopped by a soft chuckle that made him pause. The knife hovered barely a centimeter away from his skin.
 
"Why don't you have a drink before you do that and sign the contract? A good stiff drink might help you see how much better you life will become with me as your Master. It might also help to dull he pain that the knife will cause you." the smooth voice suggested. The idea was tempting, very tempting, but he felt that no amount of alcohol of any strength would make his new life seem any better.
 
"No thanks I'm trying to cut back on the stuff."
 
"Really? Funny you had quite a bit of wine earlier tonight already." the remark was so casual and off handed sounding that it left Leon feeling more worried. "Come now I find that I rather do enjoy the sight of you drunk. You have such a lovely glow to your face when you've had more than enough."
 
"How long have you been watching me?" this revelation had caught Leon off guard. He hadn't been drunk in awhile, in fact the last time he'd been plastered was a couple of nights before he had gone to live with D. If the man before him knew what he looked like drunk that would mean that he'd been followed for at least three months.
 
"Long enough to know you. I know what you like, what makes your blood run cold, what makes your blood boil. I know you much better than you even know yourself."
 
"Why do you want me?" a slight waiver in his voice that he wished hadn't been there was painfully obvious to Leon's ears and he was more than sure that it had the man grinning even more.
 
"Because you have so many alluring qualities that draw me to you. You are a proud man who is going to be hard to break. You are a delicious challenge and a beautiful specimen. You are simply to good to pass up. Now please we really must toast this occasion since it is highly momentous." a crystal wine glass filled to the brim with a bright red liquid that was rather thick looking appeared beside the contract. "Drain the glass to our new relationship and then you may sign."
 
"Tell me something, why is it that your voice sounds so damned familiar, but I can't place it? I can't even come up with a hint of what your face looks like." Leon knew that he was just stalling for time, but he didn't know why. A voice in the back of his mind just kept telling him to treat the whole situation like a hostage crisis.
 
"Because that is how I've planned it. You won't know me until you have signed the contract and fully belong to me." the voice had gained a harsh edge to it that told Leon that he was beginning to push his luck. Dangerous levels of irritation had crept into the velvet tones and that wasn't a good sign. "Tell me Leon why the game of twenty questions? You wouldn't happen to be waiting for your China Doll to come and rescue you by chance?"
 
"No... no D doesn't even know that I'm here. I came alone and told no one where I was going, he doesn't even know that I left." just saying those words made him feel even worse. All of the tender moments that he'd dreamed of spending with D could now never be, but at least D would be safe and alive.
 
"Good now a toast to a wonderfully fulfilling future." a glass from where Leon's tormenter sat sparkled in the faint light that reached it. Slowly and carefully Leon lifted his own in a mock toast.
 
"To my loved ones who will live." Leon whispered. Quickly he drained the glass of the liquid. The taste was a bit strange though not all that unpleasant, but Leon highly doubted that it was poisoned he couldn't hope to be that lucky. For a moment his vision blurred and he became rather dizzy but forced himself to get past the sensations long enough to cut his arm with the knife and noted that he didn't really feel the pain of the blade slicing his skin open enough to allow his blood to run freely and dip the pen in the steady flow. Quickly he signed as he felt himself slipping from consciousness in what was almost certain to be a unsteady scrawl.
 
"Wonderful my pet." the man said and quickly emerged from the shadows that he hid in a took the contract.
 
"You... it was you..." Leon managed before he passed out.
 
************************************************************* ***********
 
"Um sir we don't allow pets here." a woman said as D entered the hotel. D was flanked by Totetsu, Q-Chan, and several fierce looking felines and canines. Totetsu growled at the woman which was enough to make her back away.
 
"These animals are my protectors Miss." D told her as the lined up on either side of him. "You surely understand that." D was gazing into her eyes which had become glazed over as she nodded her head. "Wonderful. I need to know what room a Mr. Leon Orcot checked into."
 
"Room 487 told us that his companion by that name was due in. He came a little while ago."
 
"You wouldn't happen to be able to give me a key to that room." it wasn't a question. The woman nodded dumbly and handed over the spare key. "Thank you very much." with that D and his task force went to the elevator.
 
To D the elevator ride was painfully slow. He was beyond worried about Leon and had the dreadful feeling that he was going to be to late. Q-Chan tried to reassure D that they wouldn't be, but the normally calm Chinese man was beyond such simple reasoning. Finally the door opened and they ran down the hall. Totetsu growled at the door to room 487.
 
"No need to use the key Count D." a voice merrily said just as D was about to use the key. "The door is open." not to sure about what to think of the situation D cautiously opened the door. Sprawled a top the arm chair was Leon. He was unconscious and as far as D could see right off hand unharmed.
 
"I should have known it was you." growled D as he looked at Lee. "Don't you think that, that entire form is much better suited to the REAL Lau Lee?" he remarked crossly glaring at Lee who wore a traditional black and white cheongsam.
 
"True, he really has no real taste in clothes, but his form is just to perfect for my plans on how to keep my little pet in line." he laughed.
 
"Khan change back to yourself now. I will not permit you to ruin that young man's good name."
 
"You're no fun as always." he pouted and where Lee had once stood was Khan. He wore an entirely black matte finish leather outfit consisting of skin tight pants that ended at his ankles, a vest like top that was loosely laced together over his chest with leather cording accenting his tanned chest, a leather choker, and a leather band on each wrist finished the look. His feet remained bare and hair unbound.
 
"What have you done to Leon?" he asked pointing at Leon's unconscious form.
 
"Nothing recently." Khan answered with a devilish grin and an innocent voice.
 
"Don't lie to me Khan. You came to my shop the today and you were practically hanging all over him. You said that you were after a pet... you didn't..." D's eyes widened with sudden realization as to what had to have happened that day.
 
"I came looking for a very specific pet. I wanted one with sunshine yellow mane, topaz blue eyes, sun kissed skin, walks on two feet, as is exactly his height." Khan said pointing a lazy hand at Leon.
 
"Something that isn't for sale... oh Leon."
 
"Yes Leon. The perfect pet and a delightful fuck. I haven't enjoyed anyone that tight in years."
 
"He doesn't belong to you."
 
"Oh but he does. Silly human signed a fully binding contract and you know how binding our contracts are since you use them so frequently. Any breech on his part results in the death of a loved one of my choice."
 
"Not to make a human slave! What you have done is wrong on many levels. You have harmed an innocent, enslaved a human, and stolen my property. Those are just a few things on your ever growing list of crimes."
 
"I don't see anything that says he belongs to you my dear cousin."
 
"Because my claim marks are much deeper and truer than yours. I have however left a few easy to find marks."
 
"Really? I'd like to see them."
 
"T-Chan help me with Leon." D said moving over to Leon. Totetsu growled as Khan as he passed by him as did the other animals. Totetsu got behind Leon and gently pushed him up into a sitting position. D removed Leon's shirt completely and located the two sets of claw marks that he himself had left. The set on Leon's chest looked normal since they hadn't received any special treatment from him, but they would work for a starting mark. "This was given to him by me." D said pointing to the three faint lines.
 
"Not a very good bit of evidence. From the look of it you were trying to get away from him." D repressed a groan because that is what had happened since Leon had taken his dragon egg and was planning on using it a evidence. In order to get the egg back D had taken a swipe at Leon tearing fabric and flesh.
 
"True... then what about these marks?" D pointed out the claw marks on Leon's arm. Unlike the set on Leon's chest these torn crescent moon marks had a faint glow to them. The scarred flesh was smooth, but unlike normal scars which are pale markings on the flesh these were a few shades darker than Leon's normal skin tone. D's own saliva had made wounds into lasting marks.
 
"How did he get those?" Khan hadn't seen marks like them before. They looked old and yet brand new all at once.
 
"I gave them to him. The night that he finally told me that he loved me I accidentally hurt him. He found this pain a comfort to him since it proved to him that my answering love for him wasn't some cruel dream. I licked his wounds when I realized that I had made them in an act to convey more comfort to him."
 
"Tch an accidental claiming mark." Khan scoffed. "Do you think that such marks will deter me from a signed contract?"
 
"He is mine. I will not allow anyone to steal him from me." D didn't sound anything close to friendly. He clutched Leon to himself looking very much like an animal protecting their mate.
 
"No he is mine, he signed himself over to me." Khan hissed. The two Chinese men glared at each other with such intensity and hatred that a snake would have killed to be able to copy it for catching a meal. Energy crackled between them in an almost visible display. "You can't fight me."
 
"And why do you say that?"
 
"Because you are weak. You treat life to preciously. You wouldn't stand a chance in a real fight against me."
 
"I'm more than able to fight you and win."
 
"And what makes you think that?"
 
"Because I have someone to fight for." D said holding Leon even closer to himself. **I have to fight for you my Golden Lion.** D thought.
 
************************************************************* ***********
 
Yue glared at the door that prevented him from getting out of the shop. D had locked the door to ensure that Yue couldn't get out easily. Slowly he limped to where Pon-Chan the resident raccoon normally hung out. Pon-Chan was in the kitchen attempting to pilfer some tea cookies.
 
"Pon-Chan I need your help." Yue whimpered startling the poor raccoon and making her drop the entire box of tea cookies. Pon-Chan was about to tell Yue off when she saw the look of pain and worry etched on his young face.
 
"What can I do for you?"
 
"I have to get out of here to protect my Leon."
 
"But you're hurt." she said pointing to his bandaged limb.
 
"I don't care! My Leon is in trouble and it is my job to protect him. He has been kind to me and I really care for him. Even thought the Count gave me to him when he didn't really want me he came to care for me. You should have seen his face when he saw that I had gotten hurt. He actually blamed himself! I have to do my best to protect him no matter what." Yue said with tear filled eyes.
 
"But the Count told you to stay here..."
 
"I don't care! My human, my Leon is in danger and needs my help!" Pon-Chan looked at Yue and sighed. Yue was really only a pup, but he showed that like his ancestors he was more than ready to protect his own no matter what.
 
"Alright pup, but take Meilin with you."
 
"Thank you."
 
"Now go get Meilin and I'll meet you by the door." Yue ran off as fast as his injured leg would allow him to one of the back rooms.
 
"Meilin, Meilin!" he shouted.
 
"Yue, what is the matter?" a tall woman asked worriedly since the pup wasn't known for being so loud.
 
"I need your help. My Leon is in danger and I fear our Count might also need our help." Yue panted.
 
"What?!"
 
"Yes, the one who came today that I bit, well I believe that he has staked a claim on my human."
 
"The Count's chosen?"
 
"Yes."
 
"Why wasn't I told sooner?"
 
"I don't know. Please Meilin help me."
 
"I will."
 
************************************************************* ***********
 
**It's cold... where am I?** Leon thought but not opening his eyes. **What did Lee put in that drink? Couldn't be poison since I don't think he would want to kill off his new slave so soon.**
 
Slowly he began to open his eyes and found the surrounding light to be much to bright and quickly closed them again. With more caution he began to open his eyes again and when they were fully opened and his vision had fully cleared he figured that he had to be dreaming. He was in the middle of a prehistoric jungle and draped across large sweeping branch like some kind of sacrifice. Surrounding him was six people, four men and two women. All of them had a look of exotic fierceness to them that Leon couldn't help but admire. However he had a strange nagging feeling that he knew each one of them. Finally after awhile he decided that he wanted to get up from he rather uncomfortable position, but found that none of his limbs wanted to cooperate.
 
"Stupid human you should just tell us that you need help." a young man with flame red hair and rams horns sticking out from the wild locks commented. This one stood the closest to Leon and though he didn't ask for the help the youth gave it. It was a shock when Leon realized that he was shirt less and quickly found his shirt beside him on the branch and with a bit more help from he youth pulled his shirt on.
 
"Where... am I?" Leon asked thickly finding that he was still shaking off the effects of the unknown drug.
 
"A battle ground." an Amazon like woman told him.
 
"The Count is here to fight for you." the youth who had helped Leon snorted. "He must really like you a lot to go through something like this."
 
"Totetsu?" Leon didn't know why he had said that name of the demon goat who seemed to only live to attack him, but it seemed to fit the youth before him. Totetsu grinned and nodded his head confirming that, that was his name. "You look... look... different."
 
"Recognized me eh?" Totetsu said grinning. That grin was what fully told Leon that he was right. It was the same grin he saw every time Totetsu tried to eat him.
 
"I think that I'm losing my mind." Leon groaned.
 
"Can't lose what you never had." Totetsu snorted all the while earning a glare from Leon.
 
"That Khan must have done something to him. He wasn't able to understand us before or see the real us before." another young man said.
 
"No kidding Seki, I wondered why he understood me." was the sarcastic reply from Totetsu. By this point Leon was trying to talk his legs into running very quickly, but they didn't seem to be speaking the same language.
 
"Please calm yourself. Becoming panicked at this point won't do you any good." the Amazon said kindly.
 
"Are you all... animals?" Leon asked tentatively since he was very much worried about insulting them and as far as he knew Totetsu still wouldn't have any problems with having him for lunch literally.
 
"Yes. We've been guarding you. Rather poorly though I shamefully admit." Seki said with a downcast look.
 
"Yue... is he here? Is he like you?"
 
"Yue is at home and yes he's just like us." Totetsu answered.
 
"He wanted to come but the Count told him to stay home. The Count doesn't want the pup hurt anymore. If I know Yue though he'll be on his way here at any minute." the Amazon chuckled.
 
"Kee, kee, kee." Q-Chan squeaked.
 
"Well at least you still seem normal." Leon laughed sounding slightly hysterical, but then again who wouldn't when you realized that you had just signed your freedom over to someone, animals that you knew looked human and spoke, your one true love was said to be going to fight for you, you'd just been drugged not that long ago, and you were God only knew where.
 
"Snap out of it human. The Count and Khan wish to see you before they begin the fight." Totetsu growled.
 
"You're good." Leon complimented. " I couldn't understand a word he said."
 
"Well best be moving. Do you need any help walking?" another man asked. Leon tested his muscles with a very simple command of stand up and became furious with himself when he couldn't do even that. Leon nodded his head not trusting the sudden raw surge of emotions running through him to leave his voice untouched. To his surprise is was yet again Totetsu who helped fully to his feet and help him walk past the various plants.
 
A large clearing opened up to them. The ground of this strange clearing was covered in a short thick layer of plush grass, very much like the kind you find on golf courses. This grass entirely the wrong type of ground cover to find in such a jungle setting. In the center of this area lay two long bamboo poles each topped off with a evil looking curved blade. These staffs were unguarded and glistened dangerously in the sunlight. Leon could almost swear that he could hear them singing out for the blood that they were destined to spill.
 
"Leon." a soft musical voice breathed. It was his beloved D dressed in his sleeveless black Chinese shirt, black pants, and black Chinese slippers. He was even wearing the black finger less gloves on his delicate looking hands. This was the outfit he had worn once before during another case that Leon had been working on and it had been the only one that Leon had ever seen D wear that didn't look feminine. "My poor Leon you have no idea as to what you are stuck in the very middle of." D said sadly.
 
"D what is going on?" Leon asked praying that for once D would just tell him everything that he needed to know.
 
"Leon you truly have no idea as to how desirable you really are. You were able to capture my heart a long time ago and rather recently you gained yet another for various reasons, but mostly for being you. My cousin has tricked you. He wishes to steal you from me."
 
"D? Your cousin... I... don't fight him. I'm not worth you possibly getting hurt and... besides it's... it's..." Leon was so torn between knowing what he had to do and knowing what he wanted to do.
 
"Go ahead my pet tell him that it is over just like our contract says." Leon turned his head and saw Khan standing not to far from him.
 
"You aren't Lee."
 
"Bravo you're very smart. Now full fill the first part of the contract." Khan ordered all the while grinning evilly at Leon.
 
"I didn't sign any contract with you."
 
"Oh but you did my little love slave." Khan seemed to melt into Lee and pulled out the contract bearing Leon's own damning signature in his own still moist blood and melted back into his true form still holding the contract.
 
"Then Lee... he isn't real?" Leon was way beyond confused.
 
"Oh no you see Lee is very real. You can't tell the difference between the real Lee and me when I pose as him can you?" Khan snickered enjoying himself.
 
"Khan don't do this." D warned.
 
"Why not he is mine."
 
"Get away from him!" a new voice growled. From seemingly no where a young boy appeared. The youth charge Khan and knocked him over.
 
"Yue what are you doing here?" D asked instantly recognizing the brash youth. Yue remained atop Khan, but turned his head enough to look at D.
 
"I'm protecting my Leon. You told me to protect him and that is what I'm going to do." Yue answered.
 
"I also told you to stay home."
 
"I know, but he is to important to me to allow a sprained paw to stop me." Yue growled. For the first time Leon was able to fully understand how young Yue really was. In this form Leon figured he looked like a ten year old boy so what would that make him in his true dog years?
 
"Another insolent fool claiming my pet. How bothersome." Khan sighed and with seemingly no effort threw Yue off of himself. Yue landed several feet away in an ungraceful heap. Leon tore free from Totetsu's supporting grip causing himself to receive a deep set of claw marks that he promptly ignored. He fell to the ground since his legs refused to fully bear his weight but didn't let that stop him.
 
"Y...Yue are you alright? Leon asked in a whisper as he managed to drag himself over to the boy/pup. Yue looked up at him with his onyx eyes full of tears on pain that were quickly changed into a gaze of sheer adoration.
 
"I'll live." Yue said cheerfully.
 
"You've been hurt again because of me."
 
"I told you before that I don't care. You are my human and I'll protect you no matter what." Leon gave Yue a soft smile and gently began to stroke his hair away from his forehead as Yue fell unconscious from his new injuries.
 
"Meilin why are you here?" D asked the woman that had come with Yue.
 
"To help the pup and you."
 
"Tell me cousin are all of your animals this annoyingly loyal?" Khan drawled with an air of boredom.
 
"They are only loyal to those whom have earned their loyalty. Totetsu, Seki, Heero, Genjo, Akino, Lily, Meilin watch over Yue and Leon. None of you are to interfere with this fight." D told his animals who looked at him in shock and disbelief.
 
"But Count..." Genjo a young man with short pale tan hair began.
 
"You will do as I say." D's eyes held none of their normal warmth that he showed his pets. He was serious, deadly serious and wasn't going to allow any room for argument.
 
"Are you about ready yet cousin?" Khan asked sounding more bored.
 
"Yes. You have harmed to many. Why you have done such terrible things I don't understand and I doubt that I ever will. All I know is that I must put an end to the terror you have caused and seem to be enjoying."
 
"You don't even know half of the trouble I went through just to get my little fuck toy so believe you me I'm not about to lose him so easily to you."
 
The two Chinese men walked to the pair of staffs and carefully picked up one each. All of D's guardian animals surrounded Leon and Yue in a tight circle knowing what was about to happen. Leon quickly understood that the fight was about to start. He fought to get to his feet. D was about to engage in a battle, one that might cost him his life. He couldn't lose D to the Grim Reaper no matter what happened to him.
 
"Damn it D I'm not worth your life!" Leon was beyond panicked and his voice showed it.
 
"No my Leon, you are worth more than my life. You were the first and only human to have ever touched my heart so deeply. For you I would gladly spill all of my blood just to keep you safe." though D had whispered these words everyone heard them. Leon felt his heart clench at these words.
 
**D loves me that much that he would... no he can't die, he won't!** Leon thought savagely. Just that though gave him hope.
 
**My poor Golden Lion, the time for your learning isn't right, but I can't help it. May your love for me prove strong enough.** D thought. The fight was to begin.
 
To Be Continued....
 
Hehehehehehehe huge cliffy!!! No worries though I have Chapter 6 ready to type up, but need to find the time. The next chapter is the official last one however I am planning a totally lemony special seventh chapter, but only if I can get ten people to ask nicely for it.
