Work Text:
They lived in an apartment that wasn't too fancy, but spacious and comfortable enough for the five of them. A certain mafia boss had offered them a luxurious penthouse, but a novelist refused it. They just needed a place to gather and play together. After all, they were busy with their jobs and rarely got together in the apartment.
Ike is busy writing novels and sometimes doubles as a songwriter or music related job; Mysta is busy solving mysterious cases as a detective; Vox is busy taking care of the Akuma Clan and its business; Shu is busy with sorcery experiments, magic spells and curses. Sometimes he helps Meloco—a student Exorcist catch and curse evil souls. Lastly, there's Luca, who is the busiest of them all. Yet, he still makes time for them. He runs his family's mafia business, which is, of course, illegal. Have no idea why he can be friends with Mysta. No wonder Luca also has connections in the police force.
Jazz music livened up the calm atmosphere. Well, it wasn't too calm, as Ike's scolding voice could still be heard. He was telling Mysta to throw away his moldy, five-month-old leftovers. Shu, sitting on the living room couch, chuckled at that. Mysta never changes. Yeah, the five of them were gathered in the apartment, which had been abandoned for a long time.
"GUUUYYYYYSSSS!!! POOOOOGGGGG!!!"
Luca's booming voice suddenly broke the quiet, cozy atmosphere. Shu turned his head toward the source of the voice. Luca was approaching them from the entrance of the apartment with a smile as bright as the sun. Of course, only precious people like them could see it.
"Jesus." Ike rubbed his chest, surprised by Luca's sudden, energetic greeting. His energy truly never ran out.
"Luca, you're so fucking loud! The neighbors are going to mad at us again," Scolded Vox, who was sitting in front of Shu.
Luca grinned and sat next to Shu. "I have good news!" He said excitedly.
"What is it?" Mysta asked.
Luca lets out his usual mischievous grin and made a shooting motion with his fingers, as if it were a gun. “Guess what! We're going to destroy a party venue tonight! Wohooo!"
"Oh hell no." Ike, who already knew what Luca meant, immediately refused. He didn't like being involved in mafia work, which was dangerous. This wasn't the first time Luca had invited them to help with his work; they also helped each other out. However, getting involved with the mafia was troublesome; it was better for Ike to relax in his room.
"Oh, come on, Ikey Wikey! It'll be fun!" Luca pleaded, his puppy eyes making Shu, who was beside him, chuckle and pat him on the head.
Ike crossed his arms over his chest, unfazed by Luca's gaze. "Absolutely no, Luca."
“Why are you asking us to help you? You alone are enough to destroy an entire mafia family.” Vox asked casually.
Mysta nodded approvingly. "Right, but since I'm bored, I'll come with you, Luca." This made Luca cheer happily.
"Mysta!" Ike grumbled.
"Come on, guys! It's been a while since the five of us have had fun together. I'd be so bored on my own. I want to have fun with you guys!" Luca said, trying to persuade his friends to join him.
"Hey, Vox! I know you were invited to the party tonight, too. Don't turn it down like usual. Do you know how annoying it is that those fucking jerks keep bothering me just to see you?" Luca said irritably.
Vox laughed. He had a business that the mafia was interested in. Not just anyone could meet him. Vox didn't like getting involved with mafia groups; Luca was an exception, of course. The mobsters were always bothering Luca, but he ignored them. Meeting Luca was difficult enough; meeting Vox, who wasn't part of the mafia, was nearly impossible.
Vox Akuma is a demon who has lived in the human world for a long time. He has made friends with humans and has a large, luxurious castle hidden by magic illusions. Inside the castle are succubus and incubus called Kindred. You must have his permission to enter the castle; otherwise, you will be trapped by his magic. Even Shu was intrigued and felt challenged to break his magical illusions. It took him about two weeks to successfully do so.
"Okay, I'll come tonight." Vox said, making Luca smile happily.
Ike looked at Vox in disbelief. "Vox, are you serious?"
Vox smiled. "Why not? It's been a long time since your cute toy has tasted fresh blood, Ike. It'll be sad that you abandoned it." His dramatic words made Ike roll his eyes.
"What about you, Shu? Don't tell me you agreed to go with these stupid men?” Ike asked Shu, who had been listening to their conversation.
Shu nodded. "Yeah, why not? I'm always busy with magic and curses. I haven't used Assaultma in a long time."
Ike sighed. Of course, Shu always agreed to whatever they asked. He always seemed chilled, as if anything were no problem. By the way, Assaultma—the name suggested by Luca, Shu was referring to was an AR-15 assault rifle, a gift from Luca for his birthday. Other than magic and curses, shooting was his favorite activity. His shooting ability is so impressive that Luca always asks him to help his mafia work. Shu is so talented, he can do anything. It's no wonder his friends call him 'Shupport'.
Ike adjusted the position of his glasses. "Alright, just this once."
"YAAAYYYY!" Luca and Mysta cheered simultaneously and did a silly victory dance.
Then, the sound of laughter filled their apartment. Ah, this is what a real home is all about! A home filled with laughter, scolding voice, and never-ending conversation. Not an empty, cold, aloof, silent one.
♛┈⛧┈┈•༶♬♩♪♩𝓡𝓸𝔂𝓪𝓵 𝓕𝓵𝓪𝓼𝓱 ♩♪♩♬༶•┈┈⛧┈♛
In a luxurious mansion, important Mafioso guests flaunt extravagant outfits whose prices are beyond belief. The staff and servants are busy pacing back and forth, preparing food and drinks for the guests and setting up casino tables where they can gamble and spend money. Classical orchestral music plays, adding to the fancy vibe of the party.
A beautiful, black-haired bartender with unique blonde, pink, and purple highlights has his hair tied up in a high ponytail. He wears the usual uniform of bartenders: a white shirt with a black vest that shows off his slim waist and a black tie. The guests couldn't stop staring at him, and some tried to flirt him.
A detective wearing an ordinary black suit, not too fancy, sat in front of the bar counter. He rolled his eyes lazily, watching some perverted men try to flirt with the pretty bartender.
The beautiful bartender, Shu, smiled and placed a glass of vodka in front of Mysta, who was sitting casually in front of him. "Why are you here? Go have some fun. Don't you love gambling? You even beat Luca, the gambling god, once." Shu chuckled. He remembered Luca dramatically complaining to him about losing to Mysta in a game of blackjack. Luca ranted endlessly that Mysta was cheating and that his luck was running out and whatsoever.
"Hey, of course I have to be here to protect my precious Shuey-Shu from those piece of shit perverted bastards!" Mysta said.
Shu chuckled and wiped a glass with a rag. “Thank you, my dear brother. But I can protect myself, you know." He looked down and put the glass in the bar counter.
"If Luca knew, he would've gouged out their eyebal—"
His words were cut off by the sudden silence of the party and the opening of the mansion's door. Revealed was a handsome yet intimidating-looking mafia boss. He wore a white suit with gray pinstripes, a black shirt with the top two buttons undone underneath his suit, revealing a muscular chest covered in black tattoos. He wore a white fur coat with a hint of gold draped over his shoulders and a white fedora hat with a black bow covering his blonde hair, which was tied in a side ponytail. Behind the mafia boss were two men in all-black suits wearing Kaneshiro's signature lion masks.
"Oh, speaking of the mafia boss." Shu chuckled, and Mysta chuckled along with him.
He smiled at the familiar figure at the entrance of the mansion. Luca's arrival made all the guests, who had been busy, suddenly turn their eyes toward him. Shu could feel the drastic change in the mood of the party due to Luca's overpowering presence, even though he was only casting an intimidating, cold stare at them.
Suddenly, Luca's cold stare softened when he saw Shu at the bar. He caught himself smiling widely, then remembered they were there on a mission. He immediately signaled something to Lucubs behind him and walked over to Shu, who was standing behind the bar, ignoring the various stares directed at him.
"Hey, gorgeous." Luca greeted him with a charming smile, which he gave only for the beautiful bartender in front of him.
"Care for a drink, handsome?" Shu asked in a flirting tone.
Luca chuckled and took a seat in front of the bar. "Sure. I'll drink whatever this pretty bartender makes." He rested his right elbow on the counter and his chin in his palm. His lavender eyes gazed lovingly at Shu; his gaze did not leave the beautiful bartender in front of him.
Mysta, who had overheard them flirting, rolled his eyes and made an expression as if he wanted to vomit. "Give this guy some trash, Shu." He said mockingly.
Shu laughed and continued making Luca his usual drink. He had memorized that Luca usually drank whiskey at parties.
Luca turned to look at Mysta, who was sitting next to him. He was too focused on Shu to notice his presence. "What the hell, dude? I didn't know you were here."
"Yeah, yeah. I'm just a fly in your eyes, bro. The world belongs to the both of you. I'm just a NPC here," Mysta said in a mocking tone.
Luca laughed and asked, "Why are you here anyway?"
"I'm here to protect my brother from the hungry gazes of those assholes." Mysta replied.
Luca snorted in displeasure. "Remind me to gouge their eyes out later."
"Geez, this mafia boss is so scary. Hey, it's okay. I'll burn them all here with my fire." Shu put a glass of whiskey in front of Luca and smiled sweetly, despite what he said.
Luca smiled and said, "Thanks a lot, pretty." He accepted the whiskey and took a sip. "By the way, where are Vox and Ike?"
"Ike is busy serving the guests." Shu pointed at Ike, who was walking back and forth with a tray of drinks in his right hand. He was wearing a uniform similar to Shu's. Like Shu, Ike attracted the guests' attention with his elegant walk and the sway of his hips in his high-heeled boots.
Guests catcalled him, stealing touches at his slender waist as he served them. Ike smoothly smacked their hands away, turning to walk to another table. Unlike Shu, who always maintained a professional smile while serving guests, Ike had an expressionless face. Behind his golden glasses, he hid a look of disgust for those who tried to harass him.
The three of them at the bar stared in disgust and anger at them. Those bastards were disgusting. Shu wanted to exchange his position as bartender with Ike but was rejected by him. He said he didn't have the talent of making alcoholic drinks or the knowledge of a mixologist.
Mysta scoffs, "Fucking pervert bastards! You know, Luca. Can you imagine how hard it is for me to be here? I'd love to protect these two at once. But Ike kept walking around serving guests. So, I chose to accompany Shu, who just stayed at the bar instead."
Luca sighed. He really wanted to kill them all right then and there. But he had to be patient. The main course hadn't arrived yet.
"Vox, that motherfucker, isn't helping at all. He's just busy being surrounded by women." Mysta pointed angrily at Vox, who was surrounded by so many women.
Luca and Shu turned to look at Vox, who was responding incessantly to the women's never-ending talks. Some of the women tried to cling into his arms. But they knew that, even though he was busy enjoying himself, Vox sometimes stole glances at Ike. Those golden eyes watched Ike, who was busy walking around and serving the guests. Sometimes, Vox winked when he made eye contact with Ike, who, of course, replied by rolling his eyes. His inhuman hearing picked up the women's talk in front of him and the guests' gross flirtatious talk. His golden eyes darkened at the hands that tried to touch Ike. His jaw looks hardened.
"Vox never really changes. He seems to be enjoying his time with the women, but his eyes don't leave Ike," Shu said, impressed.
"I know right, not like this fool. Everyone but Shu is just a fly in his eyes." Mysta taunted Luca.
"I'm so jealous. I wish I was a demon." Luca was jealous of Vox's inhuman powers. He always lost focus when Shu was around; his gaze was always on Shu as if Shu were the only one in his world. He didn't pay attention to anything other than Shu.
Shu laughed and said, "What are you talking about? Look, your target is here."
Luca turned to look at the middle-aged man in the fancy suit with his confident smile. He scoffed at the sight of the man with seven bodyguards behind him. Clearly, he was showing off his wealth but that is nothing compared to Kaneshiro's.
Luca clicked his tongue and said, "That's too much."
"Go out there. Approach him. Don't forget to drain his money until there's nothing left," Shu said with a serious look.
Luca pursed his lips and stared at Shu. Is this the mean and evil mafia boss? "Why do I have to gamble with that asshole? Why don't we just destroy the whole place right now?"
Shu placed a hand on his hip and said, "Luca, be a good boy. Go up to him and drain the pocket out of him. Got it?" Shu scolded.
Luca nodded obediently and got up from his seat. "Got it, boss." He gently took Shu's pretty delicate hand and gave his knuckles a soft peck while his lavender eyes gazing lovingly at him. Shu's face heated up, and a hint of pink appeared on his plump cheeks.
Luca chuckled at cute flustered Shu. He started to turn around and walk toward the important mafioso chatting near the casino table. Not to be too narcissistic, but Luca knew they were expecting him.
"Hey, gentlemen! Am I late?" Luca asked, taking a seat in front of the casino table. His target, who was sitting across from him, seemed ready to play the game with him.
Ike, realizing that Luca had taken his seat, walked over to serve him a drink. Ike leaned down slightly and whispered, "Hurry up. I've had enough with these fucking assholes."
Luca accepted the drink and answered in a low voice, just loud enough for Ike to hear. "Get ready into your spot. It won't take long, I promise."
With that, Ike turned to take his place. He ignored the intense stares of the mobsters directed at him.
"As expected of Luca Kaneshiro! Is that beautiful waiter to your taste, Kaneshiro?" Luca held the urge to rip his mouth out. What's this bastard's name again? Fuck that. Luca didn't care. His surname was all he needed to remember, and it would soon be in his grasp.
"Yeah, he's pretty. But I'm more interested in that beautiful bartender over there. He's mine." Luca said possessively, giving the man a death look.
Reinhardt turned his head to look at the bar, where a beautiful man was busy making drinks for the guests. He flashed a smirk and said, "I agree. That bartender looks seductive. Look at those hips."
"Hey, Reinhardt! If you can have two, why not?" Another mobster said, making everyone there except Luca laugh.
Reinhardt laughed, "You're absolutely right, Andreas. Remind me to order them to have fun with us after the gambling game."
Luca's gaze darkened. His jaw hardened until the veins in his neck were appear. He gritted his teeth. The glass in his hand was gripped so tightly that it cracked, showing how strong the emotions were raging within him. What a fucking idiot. After this boring game, they would all be destroyed along with this building. Luca slammed his glass on the casino table so hard that everyone looked at him. Had it not been an expensive, high-quality glass, it would have shattered into a million pieces.
Luca flashed a smile and said, "We'd better not waste time, shall we?"
Reinhardt cleared his throat, trying to hide the fact that he felt intimidated by the young mafia boss. They started their gambling game without wasting any time. Many pairs of eyes watched them. They were obviously interested in the game, especially since Luca Kaneshiro always won at gambling. He either had extraordinary luck or extraordinary gambling skills. He could easily read your movements and guess your next move.
The game went on and on, and Luca was definitely going to win. He lazily continued betting all in for a crazy amount of money. He looked bored as Reinhardt slammed his hand down on the table, glaring at him. Reinhardt was undoubtedly angry. Luca smiled triumphantly. He knew he was about to suck all of Reinhardt's pocket.
"No way! You must be cheating," Reinhardt said angrily.
Luca raised one eyebrow and chuckled mockingly. "Cheating? Why would I cheat when I can easily beat you? Just admit your defeat, Reinhardt. Your life is over right here."
"What do you mean—"
Reinhardt's words were cut short when Luca suddenly made a shooting gesture with his fingers, as if it were a gun, and pointed it at Reinhardt. Not Reinhardt himself, but a bodyguard standing behind him. Reinhardt and the other guests looked at Luca, confused by his sudden action.
"Pew." Luca said nonchalantly.
Suddenly, the bodyguard fell unconscious with a hole in his head, leaving everyone shocked. Slowly, blood began to flood the luxurious marble floor. The mansion fell silent. They all stood still and held their breath. They were confused. What just happened?
Luca got up from his seat and suddenly burst into laughter like a madman, breaking the mansion's silence. Everyone stared at him in horror. He spread his arms widely and said, "It's showtime!" He said in a excited loud voice.
"Oh, it's about time." Shu, who was watching from behind the bar, signaled to Mysta to take his position. He crouched down to retrieve his AR-15 assault rifle, which was hidden inside the bar counter. Shu took his firing position. The calm expression he always showed up turned more serious, an expression he wore when he focused on locking onto the target in front of him.
Terrifying screams filled the mansion. They all fled frantically, looking for a way out. But it was too late; all the doors and exits had been blocked by people in black uniforms with lion masks who had suddenly entered the mansion.
The atmosphere of the mansion was chaotic: screams everywhere, tables and chairs scattered about, gunshots booming, and lifeless bodies falling.
"Vox? What happened?" A woman clinging to Vox looked at him in horror. She gasped, "V-Vox?" The women gathered around Vox stared at him in surprise as his charming gaze turned terrifyingly inhuman.
"Hey, ladies. It's showtime now." Vox took out his katana he had been hiding. He smiled wryly as their seductive gaze turned into a look of horror.
Amidst the chaos, Ike walked casually in his high-heeled boots, ignoring the chaos around him. He stopped in his tracks suddenly when someone grabbed his arm. Ignoring the person's panicked look, Ike's gaze darkened as he stared at the hand that had dared to touch him.
"Hey! You're a servant. Do you know where—AAKKHHH!" His words were cut off by a scream of pain as Ike mercilessly stabbed his hand with a knife.
The man stared at Ike in horror as he nonchalantly pulled the knife back, causing blood to spurt out. He lay on the floor in agony, holding his stabbed hand.
"Oh? Aren't you the pervert who tried to touch me earlier?" Ike smiled his usual terrifying smile when he was about to kill someone with his knife. Ike had absolutely remembered the faces of the disgusting bastards who had tried to flirt him. He swore he would hunt them down one by one and leave his 'signature' on their bodies.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" Mysta laughed like a madman as he fired randomly at them. Who cares about shooting accurately? He just wanted to have fun. "Die! Die! Die! BWAHAHAHA!"
Luca, who witnessed this, burst into the same maniacal laughter as Mysta. He mimicked Mysta, firing his golden gun indiscriminately at them. "You'll die for me, won't you? Die! Die! Die! Haha!" He turned to look at Mysta and laughed his ass off. "Yo, Mysta! You fucking suck, man! How could you miss that shot? BWAHAHAHAHA!"
"Shut the fuck up, you motherfucker! I'll beat your ass!"
Oh my God, they're truly insane. They never take anything seriously when they're together.
Luca was having so much fun that he didn't notice someone trying to attack him from behind. Then, his instincts kicked in and he turned around, sensing someone's intention to kill him. However, the person was already close, ready to stab him. It was too late for Luca to defend himself, but it didn't matter; a wound like that wouldn't kill him. He had sustained more severe injuries before.
Luca had accepted his fate but then he was surprised to see the person suddenly fall unconscious with a hole in the back of his head. He looked up to see who had just saved him.
Shu stood there with his rifle and a smirk on his lips. Luca smiled wider and immediately ran over to Shu, hugging him tightly without caring about the bloodstains.
"Shu! You saved my ass! I can’t believe I almost got ligma'd."
Shu lets out his cute giggles and returned Luca’s tight hug. "I got you, Luca."
He was like a different person. His behavior changed drastically. His calm, gentle expression was replaced by the wide, terrifying smile of a deranged psychopath. Ike toyed with the man's body in front of him, ignoring his screams and pleas. He casually sliced the man's body with his knife, humming softly in his melodious voice.
He smiled happily, clapped his hands, and giggled playfully. "Yay! It's done!" He looked proudly at his work, having left his signature mark on the man's body. Ike stood up and turned away, ignoring the man's groans of agony. He didn't need to kill him; he would soon die from blood loss anyway.
However, Ike was wrong. Unexpectedly, he grabbed his ankle with his remaining strength. Ike gasped as his body began to fall backward. But a strong arm held his slender waist, preventing him from falling.
"Watch your step, my love."
A deep, familiar voice echoed in his ears. Ike's eyes, which had been tightly closed, slowly opened to gaze at Vox's handsome face, which was very close to his. He could even feel his breath. Without breaking eye contact, Vox used his inhuman strength to crush the hand gripping Ike's ankle, shattering it horribly. They both ignored the person's terrifying screams.
Ike rolled his eyes and quickly swung his knife at Vox's face. With his inhuman strength, of course, Vox blocked the sharp tip of Ike's knife with one finger, as if that finger were made of steel strong enough to stop the knife.
"Nice try, Ike Eveland." Vox winked and smiled at him. Then, he wiped the blood from Ike's lips with his thumb, causing him to look away.
Ike scoffed and shook his body, trying to free himself from Vox's embrace. "Fucking demon." Vox laughed.
"Hey, you fucking Kaneshiro! I know he's important to you! Stop this, or I won't hesitate to kill him here."
Vox and Ike turned to see someone gripping Shu and apparently trying to use him as hostage. They realized that there were only two people left they hadn't dealt with: the person holding Shu and their main target, Reinhardt, who was kneeling helplessly at Luca's feet.
Instead of getting angry, Luca casually crossed his arms over his chest. His eyes were fixed on the person disapprovingly. Andreas, taken aback by Luca's unexpected reaction, looked at him in confusion. His confusion was answered, however, when he suddenly felt the heat of the fire burning him. He immediately released Shu and screamed hysterically. He fell to the floor, groaning in pain and staring in horror at the unusual purple and pink flames that were burning him alive.
Luca laughed heartily, watching the man’s body burn with Shu’s beautiful, never-ending flames. Luca stepped closer to Shu and gently wiped his bloodstained body as if trying to remove dirt.
"Shu, did that asshole hold you tightly? Are you hurt? Tell me. I'll tear it apart," Luca said worriedly.
Shu chuckled and stroked Luca's blood-covered blonde hair. "I'm fine, Luca. Besides, he's already dead."
Reinhardt stared in disbelief at what he had just seen. Hadn't that man just been burned by a fire that came from nowhere? "Y-you... Y-you're all monsters! Fuck you, Kaneshiro! You're a fucking monster!"
Luca, who had been focusing on Shu, turned to look at the man staring at him as if he were a terrifying creature. Luca stepped toward Reinhardt's trembling body, looking at him in fear. "D-don't come near me, you fucking terrifying monster! My family won't let this happen!"
Reinhardt gasped as Luca burst into a thunderous laughter. His eyes widened as he stared at Luca, who was pointing his golden gun at him. Ah, this was the mafia boss feared by the entire underground world. Just hearing his name was enough to make people tremble with fear.
"Your family won't care. Even if they did, I wouldn't be afraid. Come to me if you dare. I'll gladly welcome all of you." Luca spoke in an intimidating tone, causing Reinhardt to hold his breath.
"So, you'll die for me, won't you? Die, Reinhardt." Reinhardt's body trembled violently. He closed his eyes tightly, accepting his fate to die at Luca's hands.
"Just kidding. Lmao." Luca burst into laughter and lowered his gun, causing Reinhardt to open his eyes and look at Luca in confusion. The others who had been watching Luca all along sighed and shook their heads in disbelief at Luca's goofy-ah behavior in such a serious situation.
"Luca!" Ike scolded him in his usual tone.
"Oh my God, Luca Kaneshiro, please be serious. stop acting so stupid right now." Shu added.
"Luca, you dumbass bitch motherfucker." Mysta said.
"Luca, you silly boy, you such a prankster coward useless son of a bitch. Why do we even be friends with you." Vox said in disbelief, making Luca's boisterous laugh grew even more.
"I hate it here."
"Good on you, Reinhardt, you're so fucking lucky today. As much as i'd love to end your goddamn useless life right here, unfortunately i have to keep my promise for my dear friend." Luca said nonchalantly.
Reinhardt grew even more confused as he looked at them. What had just happened? However, Reinhardt was startled when he felt the handcuffs securing his hands. He looked at Mysta, who had handcuffed him, and shook his body in protest.
"You! Police? How is that possible!" He stared at Mysta in disbelief. How could someone from the police be among the criminals.
Mysta looked at the man lazily. He pulled out his ID card wallet from his suit pocket. "I'm not a police officer, more accurately a detective Mysta Rias, nice to meet you. Well, you could say I work with the police."
"Oh! If it's the police, that guy over there is from the police." Mysta pointed to the man with bright blonde hair who had suddenly entered the mansion casually and was walking toward them. Behind him were two men who seemed to be his subordinates.
Luca smiled at the newcomer and waved his hand. "Yo, Sonny! My man! You're just in time, mate, we've just caught him."
Sonny Brisko—a police officer not wearing his usual uniform but casual clothes. He signaled to his two Briskadets to take Reinhardt to his car outside. Reinhardt, who was suddenly forced away, aggressively resisted and shouted angrily at them.
"Hey, you police officer! Let me tell you that piece of shit Kaneshiro and his friends are terrifying monsters! They burn people alive!"
Sonny just stared at him disinterestedly. He ignored Reinhardt's useless ranting. Stupid fool, of course he already knew the truth. "Yeah, yeah, then I'm more of a monster. You'll find out what kind of monster I am once we're in jail, buddy."
Sonny ignored him and turned to give Luca a friendly fist bump. "How's it going, mate? Crikey. Jesus Christ. This place is a mess. You guys are insane."
"Shut the fuck up, mate. I don't wanna hear that from corrupt sadistic psychopath police officer."
Since the party was over, everyone walked out of the mansion. Shu stopped in front of the entrance and stood facing the mansion. His mouth moved silently as if he were reciting a spell. He spread out his hands toward the mansion. Instantly, the mansion was engulfed in blazing purple and pink flames that enveloped the massive structure.
Shu slowly stepped away from the mansion. His body felt weak, as if all his strength had been drained. Summoning flames as large as the mansion had consumed a great deal of mana. His mana was completely depleted. Suddenly, he felt the warmth of a bloodstained fur coat. He looked up and saw Luca holding his limp body with a strong arm around his waist. Shu smiled softly at him.
"Just say you're cold," Vox said, wrapping Ike's body in his red haori. It looked thin, but trust, there was magic in it, making it warmer than it appeared.
"Shut up, Vox," Ike replied, but he still let Vox's haori warm him.
Meanwhile, Mysta lazily watched the two couples. How unfortunate his fate was for not having a partner! "Am I the only one here that maidenless? I'm so lonely, dude," he said dramatically.
Sonny laughed at him. "You can have my jacket if you want, Mysta."
"Oh fuck no, thank you. I don't want Alban to kill me later."
Sonny chuckled and said, "Thanks, guys. I'm having a hard time catching that fucking cunt. He's really troublesome. Luckily though, I have a Mafia boss as a friend."
"Anytime, man. Don't forget your promise to get that cunt's sign." Luca said.
"Don't worry, man. If my power doesn't work on him, I'll ask Uki for help later." Sonny replied.
Then, one of the Briskadet approached Sonny.
"I'm sorry, Taichou. Alban Tenchou just called you. He told you to come back immediately."
"Oh, shit! Sorry, guys! I have to go now. See you later! Thanks again!" Sonny hurriedly got into his car.
"Bye bye, onii-chan!!~" Luca said in a silly, exaggerated tone.
"Oh God, stop. I hate that." Sonny looked at Luca in disgust.
"See you, Sonny! Say hi to Alban for me!" Shu waved his hand.
"Sonny, be careful on the road! Don't speed up. I know Alban told you to hurry, but drive safely." Ike said, waving his hand.
"Alright, alright! Bye, guys!"
Then, Sonny's car sped off, leaving them in front of the burning mansion.
Luca stretched his arms, loosening his sore muscles. "Ah, I'm so tired. Come on, guys! Let's go home."
"Yeah, let's go home."
