Who: Misaki and Tom
What: Questions Questions Questions
Where: In the hallways of the school
When: Before Lunch
Why: Because Curiosity killed the cat.



Misaki was watching around the corner of the stairwell to the third floor classrooms. She knew Maeko chan wasn't going to be happy, but she needed to find out just who Segaki-san really was. He'd wound up with them in Paradise, but unlike Emi, or Kozue, he'd not been invited per-say. She never thought he was going to do what she had told him, or that he was going to believe her. She'd just said it as a means of getting him to go away, and now she wondered if she'd just jeopardized the whole group. Though he did act weird when she hugged him. Maybe he liked boys, she mused.

Heading up the stairs quietly she looked over the classrooms till she found the one she wanted and slipped carefully past some of the seniors. Shutting the door Misaki was glad no one was in the class. She'd seen Tom's book bag when she'd noticed him that morning, he, like Gendou, stuck out. Then again she stuck out too with her hair color. Walking over to the desk, she sat down and gulped. This wasn't right, a small voice kept telling her, but she had to find some way to be of use to the others.

Taking a deep breath, Misaki braced herself as she lifted the lid of the desk and peered inside. If anything could tell her about Segaki-san, it could be found in his desk.

"Because as long as I project the attitude, and reputation I want people to have of me, I'm in control of it. I can then use that reputation to my advantage."

That gang again. Tom scratched his chin, and had a curious look on his face.

"As far as that gang, I've dealt with them once already. I had planned to keep checking on them to make sure they stayed away. I lied to you before you know. I do care who gets hurt, unless it's me.

Did you go talk to them about Sato before... or after he was killed?""

"Do you really think that's a smart thing to do? I mean...in the end, people are going to just judge what they see and when you try to change that they're not going to believe you." Misaki told him plainly.

She stared at him, and leanded over the desk to look him in the eyes, "But you should care if you get hurt too. When someone gets hurt, others around them feel hurt because they got hurt in the first place."

Misaki had a staring contest with the floor, "After..."

Tom shook his head.

"No one has ever really cared about what happened to me, one way or the other. I very much doubt that that'll change anytime soon."

It may not have been completely true, but true enough, and something Tom needed to convince himself of. When she said after his mouth opened slightly.

"Ahhh... then I'm not the only one who wanted to know what happened. It may interest you to know that my current theory suggests that Sato was pulled into paradise against his will, and that's how he died.

Not something the police *could* handle then. Not that I would trust their competence even without parallel dimensions getting in the way."

Misaki frowned and grabbed his hand, "Well I care what happens to you, so you better not get hurt Segaki-san!"

Her face turned pale at hearing his theory and she covered her mouth, "N-no...that...why would anyone push him into that place. It can hurt people. How...how would you even come up with an idea like that. Why would anyone want to hurt Sato-kun! He was a good person."

Her hand grip tightened on his, showing that she was genuninely distubed by the idea.

Grabbing his hand made him freeze, fearful of possible hugs. But when she said she cared and squeezed his hand that was too much. Tom wrenched his fingers from her grasp, and almost covered half the room in his leap backwards.

He almost looked like his usual mask might slip. His heart was beating and he stared at her with wide eyes.

"Don't! Don't even.... "

He took several calming breaths.

"Don't prete... just... don't care about me."

Tom brushed his blazer off, and straightened it. He looked at her with his usual expression back in place.

"I believe the same thing that forced ishinomori, and Oubai into Paradise did so to Sato. I don't have any concrete ideas on why those three were chosen, or who could have done this. For all I know it could even be a force coming from within Paradise.

What I do know, is that they will not be the last people attacked."

"Wha...Segaki-san? What are you scared of? I wasn't going to do anything to you? I...I don't get it...I mean. Don't you want people to worry about you? Would that be so bad?"

Misaki stared at him suprised by this reaction then her eyes got wider when she was told that Kou and Toru wouldn't be the last. Bitting her lip she gulped, "Well then...we need to talk to the others about this. Maybe they have an idea of what the connection is and we can figure out who's next?"

"Nobody actually worries about me, that's not.... that's not how people do it. Just forget about."

Tom frowned his statement didn't make sense, but then he couldn't figure out what this girl was up to. How did she not understand this fundamental aspect of human interaction? Tom was confused, and he'd already shown more vulnerability then he would have liked. So he opted to say no more about it.

"I spoke to Ito about my suspicions. You could go talk to him about Or Ikeda. They're both fairly on top of things.

I'm still working on some answers, they're theories right now, I'll present them to your team once I know for certain."

Tom turned and moved to the door, he had work to do, and couldn't spend his time here saying the same things over and over. He realized now that he should have just listened to Akuba and not spoken to the girl.

"That's just silly, what about your family? I'm sure they worry about you, and people that you hang around with." Misaki walked over to him, hands on her hips. "Why should you think no one should worry about you. That's...well...dumb."

"Keiichi-sempai and Kiriko-chan? Wait...you can't just walk away like that with out telling me what you intend to do. That's not fair and not how team-mates are to one another," she put her hand on his shoulder and pouted.

He spun around, lightly pushing her hand aside, and fixed her with a steady menacing glare.

"The only person I could call family, that I still have any interaction with has made it abundantly obvious that he doesn't care about what I do with myself. I'm sure if I died he may be relieved to no longer pay tuition and dorm fees.
People caring is a convenient fiction that I don't waste my time indulging in.

And I'm not part of the team. I may have a persona, but that doesn't automatically make me part of the team. I help you people out because I think you could use it, and I know I could use your assistance. So I'll be there when you go into Paradise, I'll get you answers when I have them but otherwise, I want to be left alone."

He turned back around, and put a hand on the door frame as he moved past it.

Misaki watched him go then cried out, "You're beaing a....a ...A Big butt! You have no idea what you're dealing with and people can care about you!"

She cut him off and poked him hard in the chest. "You think because you think yourself some famous detective or something you can just act like the world doesn't care. Well I'm not like that. I don't like it when people think that others can't care about them. And...and you shoud work with us. Just by getting us answers you're helping us, then your part of the team. Wether you like it or not."

"I *know* that it's worthless. If someone says they care about you, their either lying or they aren't going to be sticking around for very long, speaking of which..."

Tom side stepped around her and continued down the hall. This girl was drawing too much attention to him, and ket saying things that were pointless, or worthless. But by this point he expected her to follow him.

"This isn't a topic of conversation I'm interested in having. You can think whatever you want about me, and how much I'm involved in your team, I'll continue to do things my way. if you expect any different you're only going to be disappointed."

"That's not true!" Misaki shouted after him and hurried to follow. "You're wrong about that. When most people say they care about you, they really do. And I'm not going to turn my back on a friend. I'm serious Sagaki-san!"

She paused, "You really don't get it. People can die in there Sagaki san, I don't want to see you as one of them."

Thomas had had enough. He spun around and his hand lashed out, roughly grabbing Misaki's arm.

"STOP IT!"

His voice came out in a thick growl. Careful practice had taught him how to avoid drawing unwanted attention even when upset but boy was Tom close. He seemed almost hurt by her words, as if suggesting she was his friend was the cruelest taunt she could have come up with.

"I know what you are trying to do, and I'm not buying it. I'm not going to fall for this, any of it. Just leave me alone and let me do what I need to!"

"Let. Her. Go."

Maeko, running errands for the school council as usual, had appeared on the scene at exactly the wrong moment. Faced with some foreigner manhandling her Misa-chan, she didn't think beyond working out what the closest, most effective improvsed weapon would be. Her bag was still downstairs and so she chose the hardback notebook she was carrying. She rushed at Tom, swinging the agenda for next week's student council meeting.

For the first time Misaki was really scared of him. Her eyes went wide and she whimpered when he grabbed her by her arm. It was like yelling at a small little bunny. Misaki felt her face flush both embaressed, hurt, and terrifed.

The embaressment soon subsided first, but the terror was still there. "L-Let G-go Sagaki-san. Please...you're...you're hurting me."

She tried to pull away, fear clearly eteched upon what was once innocent eyes that had tried to convince him that they were friends. Now she wasn't sure what to think.

Tears formed in the corner of her eyes, as she tried to move away, "No...I...Sagaki-san...I'm te-telling the tr-truth...I..."

It was only when Maeko came in swinging that Misaki some what manged to calm her fear. Seeing her friend's anger she got between them trying to hold Maeko off, "Maeko-chan! No...No...It's my fault okay. I went into the class room and was looking through his things. Please don't be mad at him. He was only reacting as he should. I...I was in the wrong. Please don't hurt Sagaki-san!"

The pain in her eyes was enough for Tom to quickly release his hand. The confusion on his face was obvious. How could she continue to act like this even in the face of his anger.

Maeko charging in to attack was actually a relieving moment for Tom. Having someone try to hit him was familiar territory, comfortable, he knew what to do here.

He ducked low as she came in for the swing, since he'd already let go of Misaki, it wasn't difficult to sidestep past Maeko, and move away from both of them.

He stood back,his cold eyes watching, not saying a word. Body tensed for an attack. With Misaki now standing between him and his attacker.
In a moment he would leave, but he needed to make sure they wouldn't follow him.

"How dare you..." Maeko growled, still clenching her notebook. "How dare you touch her?"

It finally registered in her mind that this was Tom, who she had given information in return for his staying away from Misaki.

She gripped the notebook tighter, wishing she'd had the foresight to bring her bag up with her. A screwdriver would have made a much more effective weapon. The book would have to do.

"Misaki-chan, move out of the way. I'll get rid of him for you."

"No! Maeko-chan, please stop! I'm the one at fault. Be mad at me! I went in his desk and everything. He...I was following him when I shouldn't," the younger girl blushed and looked down.

"I'm sorry Maeko-chan, but please don't hurt him. Sagaki-san isn't at fault here. I am, so please be mad at me over it." she pouted and looked at her sadly.

"No it's.... I didn't..."

Tom frowned This whole interaction thing was what he'd hoped to avoid, and why he didn't interact with people usually.

"It's fine. I'm leaving"

Rather then explain his thoughts, and possibly further create a situation, Tom figured leaving would just be easier. He took a few steps bakc and turned around.

"Sagaki-san...I...I'm sorry. I won't bother you again. I promise." she looked down.

"Don't come back." Maeko growled. She should never have trusted someone like Tom to keep his word. "Don't ever dare touch her again."

Her grip on the notebook was still not loosening.

"Maeko, please stop it," Misaki shouted and looked down. "Just please...He didn't do anything wrong. I'm the one that was peeking into his desk. He had every right to be mad at me, so please don't go yelling at him."

Misaki looked down trying not to cry. Her arm hurt but she wasn't about to say anything.

Tom inwardly sighed. He was beginning to worry that even the minimal amount of interaction he was having with these people was too much. He'd lost the confidence of one source, and that Aoi girl... he had no idea what that was about.

He turned a corner as quickly as possible, and began moving toward his room, checking to make sure he wasn't being followed.
