YEARS AGO, IN SINNOH...

[break]

Thoughtful, Dmitri clicked his tongue in disapproval as he observed the specimen in his hand. The rock was cold and lifeless to the touch, it's grooves nothing more than a metallic piece of rock. This was the shipment that had been delivered earlier that day, but none of yet had proven useful. Blackwell would not appreciate it — in fact, Dmitri did not appreciate it.

[break][break] Yet, this was the issue with working out of office, was it not? He had been sent to Sinnoh for observation. Things were never quite smooth when he had to travel. A sigh. How disappointing.

[break][break] There was a shift in the door in the back of the room — nigh imperceptible, had it not been Dmitri himself.

[break][break] "Mischa," he says. "Let him in."

[break][break] The door opens wider, this time, into the room's exhibit. Oreburgh was not spectacular ‐ anything but, really — but the town's miners were easy to push around, to get what he wanted. Bright red eyes surveyed the boy who was let in.

[break][break] "ryuuzaki amemiya , is it not?" he says, turning away from the wall and to the gaze that belongs to the bright-eyed boy who'd asked for a meeting with him.

[break][break] A new recruit. Possibly.

He would have said this emotion was him being conflicted if he hadn't known what exactly he was signing up for. It hums in his chest, chatters in his mind and forces his hands to shake even as he holds no regrets in his mind. The door stands before him, dark and foreboding as the future he's surely destined to write for himself.
[break][break]
And yet, not a shred of him wishes to simply leave this place.
[break][break]
When the door opens before him, he's already stepping in, breathing in the atmosphere as his attention drifts over the man and the rock he holds. An ore? Clearly not one of too much value, nor one that lives up to expectations considering the lingering scent of disdain in the air.
[break][break]
"Yes, sir."
[break][break]
Manners have to be observed, answers kept to the point. He treads on thin ice as he watches their every move, crimson eyes never once averting their gaze.
[break][break]
"Ryuuzaki, reporting."

[break] Behind his back, the rock curls in his palm. He stares ryuuzaki amemiya down, bright blood red gaze piercing.

[break][break] "Reporting?" he echoes, taking steps over to the young boy. His shoes - italian leather - clatter against the floor's linoleum edge. He raises a fingertip to the boy's chin, forcing him to meet his gaze. "Do you know what you're reporting for?"

[break][break] A smile slithers out from Dmitri's mouth, eyes bright.

His attire, his attitude, the atmosphere reeks of perfection - A need for the best of the best, not an expectation but an order to perform. When the vampire dares him to look him in the eyes, Ryuuzaki doesn't flinch nor back down, forcing his body to relax as he keeps his breathing in check.
[break][break]
"Yes I do, sir." He's as bold as he is desperate, the thought of home sickening him to the very core.
[break][break]
"I'm here to make a deal with the devil."

"Yes, I do sir."

[break][break] Fingertips pinched against the other's chin. Did he? Dmitri doubted it. The small ones never did.

[break][break] Perhaps Dmitri may have wanted to scowl — he didn't. His face was perfectly pleasant, as he stepped back with a nod, his gaze never wavering. "Ripka," he says, gesturing to his son who still stayed hovering by the entrance. "The door."

[break][break] A young Jayden nods, shy, and closes the door.

[break][break] With that handled, Dmitri retreats behind a desk, fingering the paperwork of ryuuzaki amemiya 's file. "Ryuu-chan, " he says, voice slightly mocking. "Tell me why you're here."

[break][break] To be clear, Dmitri knows. He just wants to hear it - from the horse's mouth, so to speak.

This little test isn't necessary, but neither is it one that he hasn't expected.
[break][break]
"I want information. Rocket happened to be a good place to start."
[break][break]
Brutally honest. He knows that his intentions are already written amongst the files upon that desk, so there'd be no use in hiding the truth. In fact, he's certain that the more he skirts around a question, the more Dmitri will try to pry it from his lips. But Ryuuzaki will not yield. Fear only grows when the enemy has a hold on the heart and a space in the mind.
[break][break]
There's nothing noble or pitiful about his reasons, it's all just a means to an end.

YEARS AGO, IN SINNOH...

The boy does not make it easy, but then again, had it been an easy task then they would not have brought him in to handle the task.

[break][break] "That much is clear," he says, not even bothering to hide the disdain from his voice. Disappointment. Dmitri - or as Amemiya should know him, Nikolai Cross, Rocket Commander - glances down at the files again, briefly, before turning around and deciding to lean back against the desk. This way, he can give the other his full attention. A scarlet gaze roves over ryuuzaki amemiya , his expression critical. He is assessing.

[break][break] The boy is not different in age from Dmitri's own son but between the two of them lies a yard of difference. Jayden, a boy raised in Rocket, knows how to be loyal.

[break][break] Does Amemiya?

[break][break] "I'll ask again. Tell me why you're here." This time his tone is not mocking, not lilting. Instead, it is serious and demanding, something steely in the way that he looks at the other. A knife, pulled from a pocket, dances over his knuckles.

[break][break] He does not want what it already in the files — he wants details.

[break][break] And it's up to Amemiya if he wants to give them.

It is not the tone of disappointment that breeds fear but rather, the thoughts of the actions that could arise from failing to meet such expectations. An injured sister, a dead parent, a razed home - He fears those things more than he fears death itself.
[break][break]
To protect his family no matter the cost, to grant them passage and guarantee their safety should Rocket ever set their sights upon Sinnoh. It isn't enough to become a ranger and defend the region, he has to remain a step ahead so they're never caught off guard. Such sentimentality is dangerous in this organisation, exploitable should anyone catch wind of it.
[break][break]
He doesn't flinch at the glint of the knife, barely reacts to it being there save for acknowledging it with a brief gaze.
[break][break]
"To work in exchange for sparing my family."
[break][break]
If it's going to be found out sooner or later, he may as well speak the truth now to avoid any repercussions for giving misleading information. This isn't a plea nor is it his will cracking under pressure. It is merely Ryuuzaki being himself.

Ah. This boy is not scared.

[break][break] There is no fear in ryuuzaki amemiya 's gaze even as Cross pulls out the knife, no fear in him even as the Rocket Commander advances on him.

[break][break] "And why should we spare their lives?" He pauses, as if hesitating and then adds, "Ah - I mean. Why are they worth sparing?"

[break][break] ryuuzaki amemiya has no fear.

[break][break] Perhaps they need to break him.

"With all due respect, sir. Loyalty isn't ensured through dangled threats."
[break][break]
Not with a fearless soul like him, at the very least. As cunning and devious a man Nikolai is, this should be a fact that he understands very well. Hurting Ryuuzaki's family is tantamount to encouraging betrayal and the possibility of an agent going rogue.
[break][break]
The smile he gives is not one born of conceit or cockiness, but rather the knowledge that those in power will seek to consolidate and maintain control in whatever manner available to them.
[break][break]
"If anything, you'd want to be able to that leash for when it's actually necessary."

Interesting.

[break][break] The Rocket Commander leans back, appraising the young boy.

[break][break] "Threats?" he echoes. His mouth warps into a smile, one reflected in the other's expression. "I would do no such thing, Ryuuzaki. Do you feel threatened?""

[break][break] Nikolai has not laid a finger on him.

[break][break] Not yet, anyway.

[break][break] Still, he is curious. So he will humor the other. "How would you say loyalty is ensured?"

[break][break] After all, it would be interesting to see how an eleven-year old child would view it compared to an adult like himself.

"Hardly. If you had planned on killing me, you'd probably have done so from the start."
[break][break]
Nikolai may be sly but he doesn't seem like the type of person to waste his time on worthless discussions. If he hasn't tried to stab Ryuuzaki in the chest already, then the likelihoods of his parents or sister getting jumped by now seems rather low.
[break][break]
"Mutual agreements and benefits for both parties. A little hard when negotiating with those of high-maintenance, but I doubt you'll find much trouble in attempting to meet my request."
[break][break]
Access to information - That naturally comes with the line of duty he's seeking to throw himself into. Espionage, assassination, trafficking and extortion; Without information, he's bound for nothing but failure.
[break][break]
"I get to build up the network I'm looking for and you reap the benefits of having more capable hands and information at your disposal."

He smiles thinly.

[break][break] "There's always time." It was a foolish notion to think that simply because one did not die immediately, they were somehow absolved from that fate. "But, I'll give you credit Ryuuzaki. Your ego is cute."

[break][break] He steps forward, looking down at the child. "You seem awfully confident for a boy who decided to step into the lion's den. I wonder where all this confidence comes from?" He hums, grasping the others wrist with a flick of his own. His fingers would dig rivets into the boy's pale skin, unforgiving in their regard.

[break][break] He grins.

[break][break] "Please do tell, child." He pulls, not enough to lift, but enough to hurt. "What makes you a mere child worthy of Rocket?"
