One week later, three days after Zero left for a solo mission

Cold rain poured from the sky, covering the street in sad, wet tears. The sky above dark and clouded, happiness nowhere to be found.

Panic filled a man with brown hair as he ran through the rain to the building, an Aster flower in his hand.

A blue car sat alone in the driveway, collecting the sky's tears as they fell.

"Alastor!" He shouted and opened the door of the car. It had been emptied, the only object inside being a single key sitting alone in the driver's seat.

The man slammed the door and ran inside the brick building. He skimmed the interior. Broken windows lined the sides of the walls, allowing rain to drip inside. Bullet casings and faint traces of blood lay scattered on the floor.

The white walls seemed like black void closing in as the man, Dazai Osamu, realized he had been taken.

The one person alive who understood him, was gone.

He dropped to his knees and gritted his teeth, trying to hold back tears. It was the same everytime. The ones he loved always got taken.

Zero Ariya, was gone.
