“I thought this was supposed to be an easy-?!”
Taichihara cut himself off mid sentence after he was almost cut in half by the enemy. Gin thankfully counter striked the blades attacking the red head. Taichihara sighed a breath of relief, nodding his head to signal his thanks before he heard the sounds of a baby.
wait- a baby? On the battlefield? In a forest? He swiftly turned his head only to see a bright golden light engulf his sight.
…
BANG!
Battle crys were heard as gunshots were being fired & fists were being used as well as abilities. ‘chaotic’ would be a good word to describe the current situation. the Black Lizard were assigned with a supposedly easy task with Executive Nakahara Chuuya on duty, helping out or just observing for “a laid back mission” Mori had called it. Only this situation was certainly more dire than “laid back”.
-
All on the destruction site were fighting yelling and honestly doing anything you would expect from a crossfire between 2 big organisations. Although Some small port mafia grunts who happened to be in the situation had wondered where exactly their Executive had gone the moment things got intense when in an instant everyone on the field had heard a deafening sound of absolute silence.
A few had halted their battle and some had ceased their rapid fire at the screech. Yet once the bright light dissolved, it was clear a small child had somehow appeared right in the centre of the commotion.
Hirotsu who was fending off some slightly stronger enemies, looked toward the child in the middle of the field only to give a slightly off put expression. Of course the enemy who was slashing at him was surprisingly observant and had immediately changed tactics, aiming to hold the kid hostage.
“GET THE BRAT” the man running towards the unidentified kid commanded, abruptly the followers of the man had obeyed & tried to grab the kid. Hirotsu narrowed his eyes and signalled for back up.
“Rashomon” a dark beast had suddenly impaled the unprotected insolent Amateurs, Akutagawa leaped in the circle of chaos, swooping in to grab the kid a-mist the chaos.
Hirotsu nodded at the raven head and yelled at all his men to fall back.
….
25 minutes later
”ahh, gramps wasn’t that a close call huh?” Taichihara spoke trying to start a conversation. Hirotsu sighed at the red heads choice of conversation starters and scolding him lightly while glancing at everyone in the safe house. 12 people remained excluding his commanders. (They left with 24 men) he momentarily mourned the dead & focused on the new matter at hand.
“Im sure you know that our numbers have been reduced to half, and it appears-“ Hirotsu explained before getting interrupted by a surprised yelp from Akutagawa.
A few eyes had turned to the pale man in question before they looked into his arms to see the child rapidly turning blue. Most let out a surprised noise or something Similar, while Hirotsu cleared his throat, “me and Akutagawa will head to the Armed detective agency as of right now. I trust that you all will head back to the base as soon as you can, I entrust you two.” Hirotsu eyed Gin and taichihara.
The two of them both gave a firm nod, with that Akutagawa called out for Rashomon as he took the faster route to the agency, Hirotsu taking another route on foot.
….
IN THE ARMED DETECTIVE AGENCY
”I SWEAR IF YOU DONT START DOING YOUR MISSED PAPER WORK ILL MAKE YOU BECOME ONE OF THEM YOU LUMP OF BANDAGES!!!”
”now now Kunikida, what flunked into your morning coffee? Although im not doing my paper work as of now, aren’t I doing something way more important ?”
Dazai gave a deflated look towards Kunikida, with Kunikida giving a suspicious look back.
”and what may that be?” Kunikida asked with an unsure tone
”Why of course its giving encouraging smiles!~ AAAAAA IM BEING VICIOUSLY ATTACKED BY A CRAZY UNETHICAL MAN HELP ME!!”
Dazai whined after he “wrongfully” got thrown into a wall. Atsushi sighed at his colleagues & continued his own paper work. But of course Atsushi was damned to think he could do so in peace.
*BANG*
the agency’s door was banged open with Akutagawa being the cause. Atsushi gave the Vampire look alike a chunky stare full of distain. The rest of the agency members who also became aware of the new presence begun to tense up getting ready for a fight if necessary.
Kunikida had quickly drawn out a gun “State your business.” He said pristinely calm
Akutagawa wasn’t exactly sure what to say since Hirotsu hadn’t arrived and time was running out for the still unidentified kid, so he decided to take a risky move. “For the sake of our truce the Port Mafia asks you to aid us in reviving this child!”
That caught all the detectives attention, before anyone could even protect or agree though, Ranpo had given a nod, and what Ranpo says goes. So without a word Yosano who was just exiting her infirmary sped walk to Akutagawa grabbed her Patient & once again walked back into her infirmary, briefly yelling a muffled “Thou shan’t die!” Behind the now closed door.
With that taking care of, Akutagawa was now being questioned by the detectives. “Why do you have a kid with you anyways?” Atsushi asked curiously
“The thing was about to die.” Akutagawa stated while he started to have a coughing fit. Atsushi gave him a look of slight worry & then came Hirotsu.
”Excuse us for intruding, I’m sure you have questions regarding our sudden appearance.”
“Mr Fancy hat has been turned into a toddler by an ability what more is there to it?” Ranpo said in a haughtily bored tone
Once Akutagawa had heard this, he gawked quickly looking towards the infirmary in which his superior had been taken into. We didn’t take the child for hostage then.. Akutagawa cringed at himself for calling his superior “A thing.” He turned to the side and let out a cough to hide his embarrassment.
“Ohh? That slobby slug has gotten himself in quite the situation it appears?” Dazai said excitedly after silently observing for awhile, he let out an amused cackle while narrowing his eyes, he then asked with a seemingly indifferent tone changing his mood “So Hirotsu-san, why was the ginger pipsqueak on the brink of death hmmmm?” Dazai gave a smile while he sat up from where he was previously thrown into a wall.
”As your intelligent detective friend here clarified, Chuuya-san has been hit with an ability as I suspected—“
”ah, but that wasn’t my question. Hirotsu-san?” Dazai gleefully smiled with no Humor, just a sharp tone.
Hirotsu sighed at Dazai’s retort, he coughed into his hand & asked “I take it you’re asking for the explanation that led to us requiring for your aid I presume?”
Dazai hummed in anticipation “well this is the armed detective agency after all.” He glanced at Hirotsu, waiting for him to speak
Hirotsu sighed once more and started to explain the situation seeing that he was given an indirect order from the 22 year old infront of him
“I see that you are curious so here is a small report, Our Mission was—“
