When Life · Kuroken - ON HOLD

07 | Protection

Kenma runs after Ren. "HEY!" Kenma yells. He jumped over the things on the floor. They were in an 'abandoned' part of the hospital, so no one was really there. He eventually became more focused to tackle Ren than to focus on the stuff on the floor. He tripped over a bag. "Shit." He whispered. When he got up, he couldn't see Ren anywhere. Kenma didn't panic, because he sensed that Ren was still near him. "From the front? No.." Kenma thought. Then it hit him. "From above!" Kenma thought. Sure enough, Ren jumped right on him. He had been hanging from the light. Ren managed to land a huge cut on Kenma's arm, but he didn't do any more damage. (If ya'll are wondering, Kenma is on the floor, trying to keep the knife from stabbing him in the chest, and Ren is ontop of him, trying to stab him.) "You have a pretty sharp eye. What sport did you play?" Ren said. Kenma hesitated for a second. "Volleyball. I use to play Volleyball." Kenma says quickly, putting more force into pushing the knife upwards. "What school did you play for?" Ren says, acting like what was happening wasn't actually happening."This guy is trying to get me to loose my gaurd, huh?" Kenma thinks. "Nekoma." Kenma says. "I saw them play once. They were pretty good." Ren says. Now that Ren had gone silent, it was harder to keep the knife up in the air, since he was pushing down harder. "Kenma Kozume. Now known as Kenma Kuroo. Position: Setter. #5. You have a husband and a son." Ren bluntly says. Kenmas eyes widen. He was speachless. "I did a little research on you. Seems you've got your life together." Ren says, smirking. "H-How-" Kenma says. Before Ren could say anything else, they heard running. "POLICE. PUT THE WEAPON DOWN, NOW." yells a police officer, pointing a gun straight to Ren. (AHHHHHHHHHHH this is cringy-) A couple of other officers came running. Ren grabbed Kenma. "Get. Up." Ren 'whispered-yelled'. Kenma got up. Ren quickly put the knife against Kenma's neck. "Ren, that's your name, right?" says an officer. "Yeah." Ren responds with. "Good. Look Ren, I'm gonna put my gun down, okay?" she says, slowly putting her gun down. "There. I put it down." she says, putting the gun on the floor. "Okay. Can you tell me the reason your doing this?" she asks. No response. "Are you angry about something?" she asks. Ren nods. "Is that man the reason why your angry?" she asks. "No." Ren says. "Okay. So tell me, why are you threating to hurt him?" she says. "Mm-" Ren responds with. The officer looks at Kenma, giving him a smile he really needed. She lipped the words "It's going to be okay.". Kenma nods. "Can you let him go for me?" she asks calmly. There was a long pause. Ren leans towards Kenma's ear. "I won't stab you, but now you know that at any time, I could hurt you or your family." he whispers. He pushes Kenma towards the officer before making a run for it. The officers who had their guns pointed at Ren fired their guns. Ren had somehow dodged their bullets. "Damn it." she says, sending two officers to chase after Ren. "Did he hurt you anywhere?" she asks Kenma. Kenma didn't want to speak at the moment, but he pointed at his arm. She took a look at the long scar on his arm, then turned to one of the officers behind her. "Go get him to a doctor to check his scar." she says. The officer nods. "Follow me, sir." he says, apointing Kenma towards a room. Kenma takes a glimpse at the officer who helped him get out of his situation. He saw she had a badge with her name on it. (Her name is Ainu.) "Thank you, Ainu." Kenma quietly whispers. Ainu turns around, giving Kenma a tumbs up and a smile. Kenma manages to give her a small smile back.
