Happy Birthday Li! In celebration of this occasion, Li will make his debut in this chapter! The chapter will be pretty short but I'm thinking of posting a Christmas fic and finishing Dueling for Love on Christmas. Also, the pairing for the Christmas fic will be whatever pairing didn't win for DFL.

"This is getting annoying! We sent Wen in and nothing has changed. Biarce is taking too long to complete the mission."

"I will give him more time. He has surprised us before, he may be planning something."

"Biarce's grown weak. He's totally given in to that blonde bumpkin. He's completely forgotten about the mission!"

"Silence! I will handle Biarce. You simply stick to your tasks."

He let out a low growl. 'He's being too lenient on him. Fine, I'll take care of this myself.'

A small figure moved down the darkened hallway. He continued until he reached a turn.

"What do you want?" he remained staring ahead, though he was addressing the boy to his right, who was leaning against the other hallway's wall.

"He's taking too long. We have to handle this ourselves."

"The master said to leave them be."

"The master favors Biarce, we both know that. Even if he never finishes the mission, Biarce will never be punished. "

"I see, but we still should not disobey direct orders."

"Do you want Wen to get in trouble for not doing what he was sent to do?"

"Well…no, but…"

"Then help me."

'Tsubakura city…It won't be long before we're in Neon City.' Gray thought.

He shifted his position a little but moved carefully so as to not wake Biarce. They were sitting on the window seat in Gray's room. Biarce was lying on his side with his head on Gray's chest, sound asleep.

Gray ran a hand through his hair and sighed. It had been three days since the incident in the rain.

Yamato had had no trouble telling everyone that they were a couple, though Gray wished he would've told them first.

Mie had been ecstatic and mention numerous times that she thought their relationship was simply adorable.

Biarce had been doing quite a lot of sleeping as of late due to the fact he had gotten a fever from being out in the rain (his and Gray's activities afterward didn't help either^_~). Wen had seemed strangely peeved lately and seemed to be ignoring Biarce and Gray all together.

Gray looked out the window and smiled slightly as he watched Mie, Yamato, and Wen run around busily. He was on his break and Biarce hadn't been working because of his fever.

"Huh?" Gray said softly. There were two people standing out near the café.

Wen dropped what he was doing and ran to them, hugging them both. He talked to them for a bit before pulling them inside.

Gray listened to the commotion going on downstairs for a little while until Yamato came bursting in.

"Hey Gray! Guess what?!"

"Shhhhhhh!" Gray put a finger his mouth then pointed down at Biarce. Yamato rubbed the back of his head and smiled sheepishly.

"Right, sorry. You won't believe this. There are two guys downstairs and one is Wen's brother and the other's a friend."

"Really? Why are they here?"

"They said they were trying to find Wen. Come on down and meet them." Yamato left and shut the door softly. Gray carefully lifted Biarce onto the bed and pulled the covers over him. He brushed some hair out of his face and kissed his forehead before leaving.

Gray descended the stairs and stopped at the bottom. The two new comers were sitting at one of the tables, talking with Wen and Yamato.

They were obviously different ages. The older looking one had spiked red hair and blue eyes. He was wearing a purple jumpsuit with yellow lightning marks on it. The most noticeable feature of the red head was the scar slashed across his face.

The younger boy hair short brown hair and strangely bug-like black eyes. He was wearing Chinese style red clothing and hat. He was much shorter than the red head and was talking excitedly to Wen. Everyone turned to look at Gray when he came into the room.

"Enjyu, Li, this is Gray." The shorter one hopped out of his chair and walked toward Gray.

"Nice to meet you. I'm Li Yong Fa. I'm Wen's little brother." Gray shook the younger boy's hand and turned his eyes to the red head.

"I'm Enjyu." Gray nodded and turned around when he heard a small creak at the top of the stairs.

"Gray?"

Biarce rubbed his eyes lightly. He blinked a few times before his eyes landed on Enjyu. He froze and darted in the other direction.

"Biarce?" Gray ran up the stairs after him. He jogged down the hall and stopped at the door. He knocked a few times but received no answer. He pushed the door open and immediately spotted Biarce huddled in the corner of the room. Gray ran to him and knelt down in front of him, gripping his shoulders.

"Biarce, what's wrong?" Biarce looked up with wide eyes.

"I…I know him. Gray, I know him."
