Chapter Text
“Boss.”
”Yes?”
”I’ve completed my mission.”
”Good. I have another one waiting for you on your desk.”
”I’ll complete it immediately.”
Atsushi Nakajima, age 18. Known as white, or more specifically, the White Reaper of the Port Mafia.
His latest mission, was in a file that, the boss of the Port Mafia, left on his table. Despite that he had just wiped out a gang, he was to go on another mission.
This new mission, was to destroy an organisation that had killed several of their lower ranked members.
He would complete this mission. As he did many others.
”Nakajima.” Akutagawa nodded at him.
”Akutagawa.” He nodded back.
”Did the boss give you another mission?”
”Yes.”
“Good luck.” Akutagawa shot him a look, before walking away.
Atsushi looked at his retreating back for a second, before walking away.
Akutagawa Ryuunosuke, age 18. Also known as the Rabid Dog of the Port Mafia. He and Atsushi were rivals, trained under the same mentor. He was just another victim.
He had arrived at a warehouse. Atsushi had tracked the organisation’s location to here. Despite the little information he was given, he was still able to solve it easily.
Now, all he had to do was wait.
“…”
”Umm Dazai?”
”Yes, Atsushi?”
”Umm… what are we doing?”
”It’s a secret!!”
”I really don’t want to face Kunikida’s wrath…”
”Well…”
”Dazai!”
Atsushi whined at Dazai, who was currently dancing on a roof. He was holding on to Dazai’s coat, so that he wouldn’t fall off.
Dazai had stolen Kunikida’s credit card again, and was waiting to see how long it would take for him to find them.
Apparently, only four minutes.
”…”
”DAZAI YOU SUICIDAL MANIC!!!”
”Hello! Kunikida~!”
”I’M GOING TO SKEWER YOU ALIVE!!”
”Hue hue hue.”
”YOU BANDAGE SQUANDERING MACHINE!!”
”You wound me, Kunikida~!”
Atsushi sighed. It had been twenty minutes, but those two were still yelling at each other in the car.
He looked out the window to see the beautiful city, then smiled fondly. This was his city after all.
Unfortunately, he was unable to enjoy the view, as “some people”, just kept bickering. He honestly feels sad for the taxi driver.
”You’ve reached your destination, sir!” The driver exclaimed, trying the best to hide his irritation.
“Thank you.” Kunikida paid him the money, and continued berating Dazai out of the cab.
”Heh… sorry for them..” Atsushi smiled sheepishly, before giving the driver extra tips.
“No problem lad, just… keep your friends in line.” The driver sighed, before driving off.
”Atsushi! Hurry up!” Kunikida shouted at him.
Atsushi let out a sigh, before the three of them hurried into the warehouse they were supposed to go.
Their mission, was to retrieve some very valuable artifacts, a northern necklace and a beignet gem, worth millions in the market place.
There was primal intel, that thieves got hold of, and Ranpo figured out that they were coming today.
So… that’s why they were currently facing off against forty thieves (like that cave story..), and three of them, had special abilities.
Dazai, was currently fighting a special ability user, who had a big burn on his face. He could shoot fire out of his fingertips, and had a very sharp dagger. Despite that, Dazai was clearly winning.
Kunikida, however, was fighting two ability users, one had a black mask on, and could turn her fingers into any sort of metal. The other, had red hair, and well… he was only using a gun, so Atsushi was unsure if he had an ability or not.
He was currently fighting the rest of the thieves, which was pretty easy, since they only had basic weapons, like a kitchen knife, or a metal pole.
“…!”
”KUNIKIDA! WATCH OUT!!” Kunikida whipped his head around, to see the red haired guy, activated his ability…. On Atsushi.
”ATSUSHI!!”
Atsushi had taken the blow for him… he smiled at him sadly, before disintegrating into nothing but ashes.
“…”
”ATSUSHI!!!”
The rest of the thieves, had gotten away, except for the guy with the burns, and the ones Atsushi had beaten up.
Luckily, they were unable to get the artifacts.. but it didn’t matter any more.
Atsushi.. was gone.
Because.. of him.
He was too slow…
And now..?
He lost another good person…
Dazai, was thinking the same thing. About.. how he probably failed Odasuke, by letting Atsushi die.
But thinking about it, won’t bring him back. They needed to take action. And Kunikida, being in such a vulnerable state, wouldn’t help.
“…”
“Dazai..?”
”Get up, Kunikida. Atsushi wouldn’t want us to mope around like this. Let’s complete the mission.”
“Right..”
”What..?”
”Atsushi’s…gone?”
”He.. can’t!”
The Agency was in disbelief. Atsushi.. was.. gone? Kyouka, was close to tears. Why? I.. wanted to protect him.. but now.. He’s gone.. and I couldn’t even do anything to stop it.
She.. didn’t even say goodbye to him.. when he went on the mission.. she was a bit mad at him, for destroying her rabbit plushie. Even though he apologised, she pouted, and said that she would still be mad at him until he got her a new one.
He smiled at her, and told her that they would go and get another one after this mission. He waved goodbye to her, but.. she didn’t wave back. Trusting.. that he would come back..
Why..?
Why.. did you leave me?
You promised.. that you would never abandon me.. even though I was an assassin, and killed 35 people already.. you didn’t care..
So.. why..?
Why did you break your promise…?
”Oh.. I see. Let’s go. I’ve already sent a letter to the Port Mafia, they should be expecting us.” The President, Fukuzawa said, after being told the situation.
He bowed his head, in respect of Atsushi. Despite not really interacting with him that much, he could tell that he was a good kid, with a good heart. It was a shame that he was to meet his end so early.
Now, they were off to negotiate with the Port Mafia.
“So.. you want us to not kill that ability user if we find him?” Mori questioned, raising an eyebrow.
”But why? Don’t you want revenge for your comrade?” Koyo asked.
“It’s none of your business.” Dazai told them, dryly.
”Oh?” Mori smirked. “But I think that we would like to know why, after all, we are agreeing on my terms?”
The Port Mafia, and the Armed Detective Agency, glared each other down.
Suddenly, someone hurriedly knocked on the meeting room’s door.
“Enter.” Mori glanced at the security guards entering the room.
”Boss. An intruder has arrived. He took down all of our guards, but he didn’t kill them.”
”Really? How intriguing.” He smiled sinisterly.
“Boss. Do you want us to deal with it?” Chuuya asked, standing up with Akutagawa.
“No need. It seems, that our guest is heading here this very moment.” Mori explained, seeing the bewildered looks plastered on their faces.” And I, would like to meet him.”
”…”
A knock sounded on the door.
“Enter.”
“Boss.. I have completed my mission.”
“… Atsushi?”
