Tainted Love

"Talking..."

'Internal thought...'

A/N: Oy vey! Well, looks like my muses have taken a liking to this story. Rather than being the simple one/two chapter story I wanted it to be, they have gone and developed an entire damn plot line. And no, I'm not going to even try to predict how long this story will end up. Last time I tried to do that, what I said was going to end up at 10-15 chapters is now at 45 and only 4/5 done!

Once again, a song is named in this story, if you would like to listen to it as you read that scene here's a FF7 amv to it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LMk-S8bA-mA

*Song lyrics*

So, without further ado, here's Chapter Three.

~Tainted Love~
Chapter Three

"Come on Yaz! Wakey wakey!"

Yazoo grumbled at the all-too hyper voice just next to his bed, throwing a nearby pillow at the source. For once he had slept a full night without nightmares and now it seemed it hadn't lasted long enough.

Kadaj laughed as he easily dodged the projectile, "Hey! Usually it's you thats dragging Loz and me out of bed so turnabout is fair play here." He grinned as he leaned closer to the sleepy man's head, "I know what'll get you up. Loz is making breakfast, and guess what he's making?"

A single blue-green eye shot open, rolling to look at the grinning man, "Waffles? With blueberries?"

"Yep! So get your skinny ass outta bed Sis!"

The long-haired man gave a short growl, "I'm not your sister! Damn it, just gimme a minute." He waited until his younger brother left before pushing himself up and stretching his sore muscles. Looking down at himself, Yazoo's eyes went wide at the marks and bites all over his chest and legs. He gave a sigh and cursed, "Damn Fox."

He quickly donned a simple black turtleneck and loose cotton pants before joining his brother's for breakfast. As he entered the kitchen, he was immediately attacked by a silver-haired ball of energy, Kadaj eying his appearance with interest, "So Yazzie, anything interesting happen last night?"

Yazoo simply shook his head, not meeting his brother's intense gaze. A silver brow rose, "Oh really? Then why you so covered up already?" Before the long-haired man could protest, Kadaj pulled at the collar of his turtleneck, revealing a rather dark hickey. The younger man gave a low whistle before calling out, "Hey Loz! Yazzie actually got laid!"

There was the clattering of dropped utensils as the eldest turned in shock, "What?! By who?"

"The redhead I guess."

Yazoo pushed his brother's hand as he straightened his collar, "His name is Reno."

Kadaj turned his head with a leering grin, "Holy shit! He was good enough that you remembered his name the next day? Mind sharing?"

"Kadaj!"

The younger brother fluidly dodged the expected slap from the long-haired man, moving away to lean against the wall, "What? I always offer to share with you guys, so what's the big deal?"

Loz chuckled as he poured batter into the waffle iron, "Maybe Sis wants to keep this one to herself."

Yazoo gave an aggravated sigh, "Will you guys quit calling me your sister? Really, it's getting old."

The youngest snickered, "Aw, you know we love ya, Yazoo. You're just to easy to mess with. And you do have to admit, you look like a girl."

Yazoo's eyes narrowed dangerously as he placed himself in front of Kadaj, placing his hands on the wall at either side of the younger man. Kadaj knew he was trapped and pressed himself against the wall as his long-haired sibling leaned close to him, his voice devoid of its usual softness, "That's not what you said two nights ago, little brother."

Kadaj shuddered at the cool commanding tone in the man's voice. Usually when he pressed Yazoo to this point, it ended in one of two ways, either Yazoo would ignore him for days on end or drag him to the nearest bedroom and fuck him into the mattress. Today, he was hoping for the latter.

"Alright you two, break it up. Breakfast is almost ready. Mind slicing the fruit today Yaz?"

His anger broken, Yazoo's eyes softened as he turned away. Kadaj glared at Loz, folding his arms over his chest, "Party pooper! Just because you only like girls doesn't mean you gotta ruin my fun."

The oldest brother just shook his head, turning back to the stove as Yazoo began to slice up oranges to go with the waffles and eggs. Kadaj snatched an apple, tossing it in the air as he leaned against the counter, "Besides, I know you agree with me Loz. Remember that time you actually got drunk and decided Yaz was a really hot chick? The look on his face when you slapped his ass was..." His words were silenced by a flash of silver and the disappearance of his apple. A quick turn found the fruit stuck to the cabinet door by a large knife still quivering through it's center.

"You know, Kadji, you really shouldn't tease Yazoo so much. Especially when he has something nearby that he can throw or shoot at you." Loz laughed as he pulled both the apple and blade from the wooden door with an easy tug, "He can be more cold-hearted and has better aim than you."

The younger brother pouted, "He's just too much fun when he's angry."

Yazoo set the plate of fruit at the center of the table, in between the waffles and eggs, "I really wish you two would cease talking about me like I'm not in the room."

Both men grinned sheepishly before all three sat at the table, eagerly digging in to the food. As the meal began to disappear, Loz glanced at Yazoo with concern several times before finally speaking, "All joking aside Yaz, you had a good time last night right? He didn't...well, you know."

He immediately regretted saying anything as the warmth in his brother's eyes faded, leaving an icy chill that filled the kitchen. Almost as soon as it had appeared however, the long-haired man shook his head and dispelled the feeling, a small smirk on his lips, "Yes, it was quite amusing. Though it was a bit confusing when his boss basically demanded that I come work for them." Both Loz and Kadaj turned questioning gazes to their slender sibling and Yazoo gave a sigh as he explained, "Apparently Reno used to be tired of doing shows at the club and was only supposed to do the performance we saw and then he was going to leave again. It seems my 'interruption' actually ended up waking up a bit of his old zeal and they want me to work as his partner in the shows now. I think I'm going to accept, after all, we do need a steady income. We can't keep living off our savings."

A mischievous grin crept onto Kadaj's face, "Wow, you remember the guy's name AND you've managed to get yourself working with him. Soooo, when is the wedding?"

This time he couldn't dodge the open slap so he simply braced himself and chuckled as Yazoo left to get his morning shower. When he felt the man was far enough away, Kadaj continued his joking with Loz, "You know, I would have thought the redhead would have had to remove the stick from Yazzie's ass in order to screw him. I guess he must just have a really small...OW!" He reached up to massage the back of his head and glared down at the hairbrush that now lay on the floor.

"Nice throw Yaz!" Loz called out toward the open bathroom door, which sat across the living room and at the end of the hall from the kitchen. A soft laugh was the only response he received. He shook his head as Kadaj began to gather the dishes, complaining about the bruise on his head. They weren't a traditional family, but they wouldn't trade what they had for anything else.

The Electric Haven, normally awash in laser lights and spotlit displays, was a fairly non-descript building during daylight hours. Several employees were beginning to gather, readying themselves for the Saturday rush that was due to start in a few hours. Three black-clad figures approached the building, Yazoo busy lecturing his brothers, "Now you two behave yourselves, especially you Kadaj! I swear, I wouldn't have even brought you two if you didn't promise you would follow me anyways. Just no harassing my employer."

The younger brother rolled his eyes and sighed, "Yes mother!"

The three men strolled over to the currently closed Electric Haven, their appearances far less relaxed than they had been the night before. They were here for business not pleasure, so each carried his weapon of choice. Luckily, Midgar was one of the few cities with an open weapon policy so they were given no trouble. A certain smoking redhead leaning against the wall by the employee's entrance brought a small mischievous smile to Yazoo's face that Kadaj quickly caught, "I know you said not to harass your boss, but what about co-workers? Do you want to introduce us or should we introduce ourselves, dear brother?"

The expression on the long-haired man's face when from mischievous to downright evil, "No blood but otherwise have fun, Kadji. I'll watch for now." Both Loz and Kadaj snickered before separating to make their 'introductions'.

Reno nodded his head to the music streaming steadily through his earphones, Nickelback's Next Contestant. A glint of metal caught his attention as something silver flashed in front of his face. Blue eyes went wide as his cigarette broke into three pieces, leaving only the filter in his mouth. He warily turned his head to find a strange, silver-haired youth staring at him with a creepy grin and a double-bladed katana in hand.

*I judge by what she's wearing
Just how many heads I'm tearing
Off of assholes coming on to her*

The boy mouthed the word "Hi" and waved his hand at the redhead just as a shadow crept into Reno's vision. Instinct caused him to duck and roll to the side, narrowly dodging a rather large fist. Quickly regaining his feet, he eyed the new stranger, a large muscular figure with slicked back silver-hair. The man gave him a playful grin as he cracked his knuckles and resettled the device attached to his right arm, a strange mechanism that gave off an electrical charge from it's extending points.

*They'll go and ask the DJ
Find out just what would she say
If they all tried coming on to her*

'What a lovely way to start the day.' Reno thought sarcastically as he studied the two men. 'Hm, silver hair, black leather outfits, cat eyes...yep, these must be Kitten's brothers. What the hell are they attacking me for?'

*As they all try coming on to her
This time somebody's getting hurt

Here comes the next contestant*

His thoughts were cut short as the younger one dashed forward again, his blade's movements almost too fast for the redhead to follow as he flipped back, narrowly dodging a swipe to the stomach. "Look! I don't know what your brother told you but it wasn't my fault!"

A short laugh left the smaller one as he turned to look at the older brother, "Hm, Loz, that sounds like a guilty admission to me, don't you think?"

The ruthless grin that spread over Loz's face made Reno pale, "Sure does, Kadaj. Wanna make him 'fess up to whatever he did?"

Silver hair played over the child-like face as Kadaj tilted his head and studied the tattooed man, his voice purring contently, "Oh very much so."

*I wish you'd do it again
I'll watch you leave here limping
I wish you'd do it again
I'll watch you leave here limping*

'Shit! These guys are serious!' As the younger brother moved again, Reno tugged at the cord around his wrist allowing a compact rod to fall from inside his sleeve. The deadly blade arched toward him again as he pressed the button to extend the metal and quickly blocked. Electricity danced over the katana from the EMR and Kadaj gave a grin, "Oooh, looks like Red actually has some teeth. This is going to be more fun than I thought!"

*I even fear the ladies
They're cool but twice as crazy
Just as bad for coming on to her*

Reno dropped and spun his leg out, hoping to take the swordsman's feet out from under him. Kadaj leapt easily, reaching a height that made the redhead's jaw drop before he realized that the man was leaping OVER a fast approaching Loz. 'Shit shit shit!'

*Each time she bats an eyelash
Somebody's grabbing her ass
Everyone is coming on to her*

He caught his EMR between the electric charged points and kicked a foot into the muscular man's stomach, using Loz's momentum to flip him over and away from him. Scrambling to his feet, wary blue eyes glanced back and forth between the two men, wondering who would make the next move, "Look, I think we got off on the wrong foot, yo."

"You're right," Kadaj chuckled, "You still have your feet. Guess we'll have to fix that."

*Is that your hand on my girlfriend?
Is that your hand?
I wish you'd do it again
I'll watch you leave here limping*

Reno gave a groan. 'Where's Rude when you actually NEED him? These two are gonna kill me!'

"Hey Kadji, I think he's actually scared. His knees are shaking!"

A low growl left the redhead, he'd show them scared! Kicking off the ground, he swung the static-charged rod toward the smirking muscular man. Loz easily dodged, only to be surprised by a swift kick to his temple. Reno didn't wait for the fighter's retaliation, gaining as much distance as he could from both men.

A blur of silver and black fast approached his side and he cringed at the screech of metal on metal as the double blades and EMR clashed. Reno aimed a kick for Kadaj's ribs only to have his foot caught in a surprisingly strong grip by the younger man, "Got you now, Red."

*I'm hating what she's wearing
Everybody here keeps staring
Can't wait 'til they get what they deserve
This somebody's getting hurt*

Seeing Loz's fist out of the corner of his eyes, he immediately twisted and fell, wrenching his foot from the vice-like grasp. As soon as he hit the pavement, he scrambled forward, hoping to get some distance from the apparently crazy brothers.

*I wish you'd do it again
Each night seems like it's getting worse
I wish you'd do it again
This somebody's getting hurt*

As Reno fully gained his feet and turned back toward the pair, he blinked in surprise when he found they hadn't come after him again. Then he froze at the unmistakable click of a gun being readied and cool metal pressing to his temple. A familiar chuckle reached his ears as one of the earphones was removed and a soft voice purred, "Bang. You're dead Fox."

*There goes the next contestant*

Kadaj and Loz practically fell over laughing at the look of relief on Reno's face as Yazoo moved the gun away from his head and re holstered it. The redhead glared at the three of them, "What the fuck, yo? Is that some sort of crazy test from you guys?"

Yazoo gave a teasing smirk, "No, that's just our way of saying hello. If we were really testing you, you would be in a forest with only your pants and electro-rod."

Reno swallowed a few times before laughing nervously, "Riiiight."

Kadaj threw him a grin, "Actually he's telling the truth. Normally we would leave you in only your boxers but Yazzie says you don't wear any."

Blue eyes flickered between the three silver-haired men before he finally truly laughed. Throwing an arm around the slender man's shoulder, he grinned, "Ok, it's official. You have the craziest family I've ever seen, Kitten."

Loz and Kadaj both raised their eyebrows, looking at a now-blushing Yazoo, "KITTEN?!"

The long-haired man grumbled, "Shut up," before turning his attention back to Reno, "Is the offer from Shinra still valid?"

"Hell yeah!" Reno practically shouted, "Come on, I'll take you to him. Maybe he'll even be willing to look into something for your crazy-ass brothers."

Kadaj chuckled, "You haven't seen crazy yet, Red."
