This is a follow up of chapter 1. Pretty lame for another try of action, but please... don't run away yet. ^_^ Sankyuu to everyone who read my (sort of) first Yugioh fiction ^_^. You can all check "Let rain wash over" please. It's a one-shot, but it's placed in the "Weiss Kreuz" category. That fic can actually apply for Yugioh too or any other anime, you know?

Chapter 2: Chase the game

12:05 PM

A small police car was racing down the streets, occasionally swerving around other cars. The car tires screeched loudly, disturbing the usual noises the engines made. The police car was chasing a red BMW, which sped with great speed through the crowd of cars.

Light indigo eyes narrowed into slits as the owner cursed. "Damn it! Where are the others? He's getting away!"
His eyes never left the back of the car, which he was chasing. He was well aware how dangerous he was driving. The screeching of the car tires made it clear. Especially when they're in the middle of a crowded street.

His partner was clutching his seat tightly while whimpering when his partner swerved the wheel mercilessly. He felt being thrown like a ragged doll from one side to the other. His purple eyes were wide in fright and glanced at his fuming partner. "M-maybe t-they're on their way?" he responded weakly.

"CALL THEM!!" The driver threw his partner a walkie-talkie (1)

"H-hai"

*~*~*~*~*~

12:10 PM

"I think you're holding back, Jounouchi-san. Your hands are shivering anxiously" Yami pointed out. "Why is that? Are you scared of me?"

"Do I have permission to tell the truth, sir?" Katsuya took a shaky breath as he smiled hopefully. This entire keeping out of character was making his worries increase rapidly. It was a wonder how he could keep his mouth shut throughout their ride. He'd refrained himself from kicking into full speed and giving his partner a shock of his life. He wanted to feel the energy electrifying his body.

"Yes"

"It's because my hands are craving for the adrenaline. The speed. The wind. The horror..." Katsuya grinned giddily and was quickly cut off when an unknown voice squeaked out.

"This is officer Mutou speaking. We've a problem here at Area F. Our suspect had just escaped us in a red BMW... Hello? Do you copy? We need some help here!" The walkie-talkie made funny sounds while the message was brought out.

Katsuya blinked at the road while Yami's eyes went wide.
"Isn't area F...?" Katsuya wondered out loud.

Yami grabbed hold on the walkie-talkie.
"Don't worry, aibou. We're on our way" He shouted out and grabbed hold on the wheel. He pulled desperately on the wheel, trying to turn the car towards the busy street. The tires screeched while the small car made a sharp turn.

"Hit it, Jounouchi-san!" The peaceful look was scrunched into a predatory one. The red eyes were flaring with anxiety. His eyebrows were knitted in concentration. Katsuya grinned, ignoring the fact how scary his teacher looked.

The small car sped through the empty street towards the busy main street. The wheel was being turned mercilessly as the car tires shred their way over the hard-asphalted ground.
Yami was gripping the door tightly as he searched for their annoying escapade.

"Yami? Where are you?" officer Mutou's voice rang through the walkie-talkie.

"Sir, do I have permission to ride at full speed?" He wanted adrenaline to flow through his veins. The tingling in his feet and arms were screaming at him to do it NOW.
"He's coming right at us!!!" Yami shouted, not even hearing Katsuya's question.

Everything went in a blur. Katsuya raced his way through the busy street. Other cars honked in anger once the police car began to make their way in front of them.
Yami climbed from his seat on the window and took out a gun. He held tightly on the handle, which was fastened above the front seat. It provided him some security that he wouldn't fall off the car during a car chase.

The strong wind whipped across his face. Yami's eyes darted towards the racing red BMW and eyed the front road occasionally. The rookie was definitely going at full speed, turning the wheel madly one side to the other. It was a wonder how happy the rookie looked using the full speed.

It was not long after that; Katsuya glanced from the corners of his eyes at the oblivious driver in the red BMW. He grinned excitedly and swerved the wheel, pumping the speed into the engines.
They were approaching an empty intersection of the road.

"Hey, sir. We could race him towards the interaction and shoot!" Katsuya shouted. Before Yami could even answer, Katsuya quickly made his way to the front, not even glancing back at the red BMW. Yami considered the odds and evens for a while and held his gun close. He would trust his rookie's plan just this once.

Not long afterwards Katsuya raced into the middle of the empty interaction and swerved the heel into a terrifying, screeching stop. It was Yami's turn then. He glanced at the cars, which were approaching the interaction.

Only the red BMW raced out of the crowd while the other commoners looked stunned at the reckless police car. Yami aimed the gun at the front glass and pulled the trigger a few times.

Katsuya watched in awe and disappointment at the agent's move. Of course the agent had a good aim, but the thing was the gun couldn't kill [2]. Orange goo came out instead of a rain of bullets.

The driver in the red BMW shrieked in surprise when he couldn't see through the orange goo. He swung the wheel around frantically as screeching car tires met his ears. Fortunately for everyone and unfortunately for the driver the car came to a full stop.

Yami smirked and held the gunpoint upwards. "BAM!"

Katsuya was breathing heavily as a grin grazed his troubled face. He could feel how his heart was pounding rapidly and how the sweat was sliding down his forehead. But it was worth the chase.

Another police car sped its way out of the stunned crowd and screeched to a hard stop. Two other officers ran out of the car and aimed their guns at the shocked driver in the red BMW.

"You think you can escape us?" one of the officers snarled as he grabbed hold of the man's collar. The man mumbled something incoherently.

"Aibou!" Yami called out and jumped out of the window.
Katsuya blinked as he watched his teacher approach the other officer. Did his temporary partner give another officer a pet name? Or was it just familiarity?

"Jounouchi-san, please take care of the traffic!" Yami called out over his shoulder and turned to smile at the shorter officer.

"Hai!"
Katsuya came out of the car and put a whistle between his lips. He blew hard once.
"Keep moving. Keep moving. Thank you for your corporation" Katsuya called out as he motioned the cars to pass. Having learned some traffic moving signs, he waved his left arm and held his right arm to the right in shoulder length.
The feeling of speeding up under his touch was still there as Katsuya grinned good-naturedly at the passing cars.

"How is Malik to you? Yami asked worriedly as he steadily stared into the shorter officer's eyes.
"He's fine, Yami Although I would want to sit behind the wheel again than being thrown around like an empty can" Yugi smiled brightly at him. He looked over at the stranger in blue uniform. "Is that...?"
Yami smiled while looking over his shoulder.

"Jounouchi-san!"

Katsuya looked up when he was called and quickly made his way to the older agents.

"Jounouchi-san, I want you to meet Mutou Yugi, my previous partner" Yami introduced as he smirked mischievously at someone familiar on the sidewalk. A certain blue-eyed rich guy.
"Nice to meet you" both Katsuya and Yugi bowed respectfully, not even noticing agent Yuuki was staring at someone from the sidewalk.

"You're a great driver, Jounouchi-san" Yugi commented and flashed him a smile. Katsuya noted that somehow Yugi looked a lot like Yami except for the eyes and the height. He wondered if they were related.

"Let's get this over with! I'm agent Ishtar. Now come on, agent Mutou! The thug might want to escape in my car!" the anonymous officer called out impatiently while he set foot into the small police car.

"Hai! Sorry about that, agent Ishtar[3]!" Yugi called out and ran back into the car, which he and agent Ishtar shared. The car sped away all the while letting the others see a faint wave from Yugi's side.

Katsuya jammed his hands into his pockets. "So... am I still getting a ticket for racing down the street like a maniac without a licence?" He asked nervously. The ground suddenly looked interesting, maybe even those new black-polished shoes of his. Shiny white s adored the black shoes' noses. Aa... how clean.

Yami blinked a few times. So the rookie still knew the traffic rules after all. "Maybe we should just forget that. You'll get your licence first thing in the morning".
Yami walked past the nervous rookie and went into the small car. "Let's go!"
"H-hai!" Katsuya grinned widely without facing his temporary partner and turned around.

*~*~*~*~*~

12:30 PM

"Energy flows through your lines, young one" A few photos of Katsuya walking back to the car were being taken.

Someone was watching from the rood of a nearby building as he put down the photo camera. He'd witnessed the whole chase and was slightly surprised that the driver was merely a rookie. Most rookies can't stand the speed between such a big crowd. They were afraid of getting anyone injured once they hit the speed. This rookie was definitely into dangers, he noted.

To make it even unbelievable the kid loved the ride. He could tell by the healthy smile the rookie had flashed the other drivers, which went unnoticed by the other officers.

He smiled.

"You're too easy".

He hid his camera in his trench coat and turned around. We never got to see his face. A smirk was plastered on his face as he jumped down from the roof [4].

*~*~*~*~*~

12:15 PM

Inspector Kaiba flipped through his folders all the while glancing at the traffic. There were too many cars in the main street.

He hoped he could get this killer soon before they've to lose another rookie from their force. Its a waste to wash away the rookies just because they were inexperienced in the practical world. If it got worse, the murderer might want to kill off the whole force slowly. Just like some torture and let all the commoners lose faith in their city's police force.

Where were the survivors?

The screeching of car tires caught his attention. He looked up at the traffic and faintly caught sight of three cars zooming past at full speed.

"Stupid drivers! Don't they know the rules?!" He cursed and looked for an opportunity to blend into the traffic. He cursed silently and headed into the main street, blending himself smoothly between all the other cars.

He watched as two police cars chasing a red BMW. A familiar tri-colored agent climbed out into view and sat on the window.

"Agent Yuuki" inspector Kaiba smirked, finding it a bit too funny that he recognized the agent in the leather dress. But what if it's his partner, officer Mutou? Those two looked so alike, but weren't the same.

Inspector Kaiba squashed that thought. Officer Mutou was always behind the wheels. He raised an eyebrow as the police car, where he recognized agent Yuuki sped past the red BMW with full speed.

"Reckless driver that Mutou! Doesn't he now the rules?" inspector Kaiba swore and tried to keep up with either of the police cars. He anted an alibi to send those reckless officers into shame. Of course he helped them once in awhile especially since the murder case resolved around the police force. But just for the fun he would teach them traffic rules.

Suddenly the whole stream of cars stopped moving. Inspector Kaiba frowned and stepped out of his car. An impatient driver honked rudely and sped past him. The inspector faintly caught another familiar sight: Officer Ishtar and... officer Mutou?

"What's going on?" he muttered and ran past the curious pedestrians. Wasn't agent Mutou with agent Yuuki? What's Mutou doing with Ishtar?

He was just in time to watch agent Ishtar and agent Mutou aiming a gun at the red BMW's chauffeur. Agent Yuuki jumped from the car and called out to agent Mutou. He then called out something incoherently over his shoulder.
Definitely THAT reckless driver. The driver got out of the car and blew hard on the whistle. He started waving to the commoners to resume their way down the street.

Inspector Kaiba frowned at the back of the anonymous officer's head. Dirty-blonde hair? He didn't know many officers with dirty-blonde hair. Except maybe agent Ishtar's hair... if his hair was dirty blonde too.

Agent Yuuki called out to the anonymous officer, who turned around in response. Inspector Kaiba narrowed his eye, trying to take a good look at the stranger. "Definitely a new face" he muttered.

Agent Yuuki said something to both officers and flashed HIM a smirk. The red eyes caught the sharp cobalt bleu ones. The inspector glared at the rebellious-looking agent all the while wondering how the agent could spot him so easily.

He took one last look at the new officer and headed back to where he'd left his car. Cars that passed by began to honk angrily at him.
"Don't you know how to park your car, pal?" "Move the f****** vehicle, mister!" And all sorts of anger speeches were hurled at him.

He paid no attention to the angry common folk and stepped into his car. The inspector glanced at the folders on the seat next to him. He slowly picked out one of them and flipped it open.

"Jounouchi Katsuya... [5]" The inspector read in a whisper and eyed the small photo which was attached to the first page.

Smiling brown eyes stared unaffectedly at him. The dirty-blonde hair looked suspiciously like the same anonymous officer's hair.

He scanned the statistics and smirked. He could sue station 6 with the scene he'd just witnessed: disturbances in the traffic. But for now he should keep track on the upcoming rookies. Their lives were being threatened without a reason.

His car mingled with the other cars.

*~*~*~*~*~

13:00 PM

"I'm sorry I'm late, sir"

"It's okay. Are you ready to go now?"

"Yes, sir"

"Good. Let's go"

"... uhm... Where are we going, sir?"

"You'll see..."

"A restaurant?!"

"Hn. Let's eat"

"Hai"

"Afterwards what will you do? Anything in mind?"

"Nothing I can think of, sir. Why do you ask, sir?"

"It's because I've already made plans for tonight" [6]

End notes:

1: -_-;; I know that's a bit too... inconvenient, but I've no idea what to use... so let's continue it with that old thing, please?
2: Picked this one out from "Taiho Shichauzo" ^-^ It's much safer to use that gun in my opinion. Oh... the stance where Yami must sit on the window and such was also taken from "Taiho Shichauzo" ^-^. So it doesn't belong to me.
3: I believe that Malik wouldn't want Yugi to call him "Ishtar-san" or anything that familiar.
4: ^_^ Okay... the guy won't die there. He would have to be so stupid just to jump down from a building. But no... he's not stupid.
5: Let's just say it's just a coincidence. But no... it's not at first sight. He's just checking out the files.
6: That's supposed to be the mystery scene where the 'killer' and his victim are talking. The 'sir' part is just a hint *winks*

Responses:

Jou-pup: O.O You did? Aa... don't worry ^_^. Those questions might get their answers once you read on ^_^ *winks* -__-;; They're OOC if that's what you mean to say? Hmmm... I'll think that's an option for the standard pairing^_^. Thank you *munches on cookie* Sankyuu for reviewing ^_^

bunny: ^_^ Sankyuu for reviewing. ^_^ I'm glad it's not so bad... even though it's kind of slow in my opinion.

Split Persona-The Ones and Onlies: O.O Wow, what an interesting long name ^-^. Aa... you got me. Of course he's sort of a victim ^_^. Thank you... I've just recently edited it. Whenever I use the officer name I always use the family name, so... it wouldn't sound so bad once I know Katsuya's family name. Sankyuu for reviewing ^_^.

Angel-Belle: *shrugs* Oh well, I know not a lot of people like the way I work and all. I'm still trying to polish the style and the story does seem a bit slow, don't you think? But it's okay with me if I don't get tons of them *goes to a corner to cry* I was kind of hoping for some critics and all. ^-^ I love AU. Most my stories are Aus *reads previous chapters* Hehehe... I didn't find any clues that made everyone suspect it's Kaiba killing someone O.o. Sankyuu for reviewing ^_^.

I know it's kind of lame to put the first scene there, but don't worry... I'll put mystery in the next chapter too.
