The gun's mercy

Chapter 5: A big surprise

            I didn't dear to say a word on the road to their base. That boy Sakusa got in the driver's seat, Bokuto sat next to him, leaving me and Hinata in the back seats. The three of them started talking about some business they needed to do and things like that while I was sitting quietly there, looking out of the window, trying to not think about how awkward all this situation felt for me. I had so many questions to ask them, but now it wasn't the right time. I'll want to talk to Bokuto about this subject in private, probably when we'll get to the destination.

            After 30 minutes, that have felt like an eternity, we finally arrived to their base. I got out of the car, just like them, when my eyes landed on the offices building in front of the parking lots. It was all made by dark glass, exept for some walls. A plain black door was welcoming us. On the door, it was written with big golden letters "MSBY". This was the plce where my life is gonna change.

            Bokuto got some keys out of his pocket and unlocked the door. All of us entered after each other. The interior ofthe building was very clean and spacious. A strong and scary voice filled the air:

   - "Sakusa, Hinata, you can go to your apartments, I'll talk to Atsumu in my office. You're dismissed." The two men slowly bowed in sign of thank you and they left in different directions. I was now all alone with Bokuto. "Follow me, Atsumu. We have to talk." I simply nod and start walking after him.

            He stays for a few seconds in front of a door then opened it wide, showing a room with black walls and with big square windows covered by some black and white curtains. In the centre of the chamber it was located a pretty large desk, with a lamp and some stacks of documents on top of it. A big leather chair was behind it, almost like it was waiting peacefully for Bokuto to sit on it. In front of the desk, there were two armchairs, also made of leather. On both sides of the room, there were some tables full with different kind of pistols, bigger guns and some knives, some bigger or smaller than the others. Everythig was completely clean and organised.

            After I analysed the room, I starter started saying:
   - "Did you want.. To talk to me?" I said, being a bit scared of what I'm about to hear.

   - "Yes.. Please take a seat." He said softly, gesturing to one of the armchairs while sitting on the leather chair. I did as I was told and looked at him.

            He now seemed a lot calmer than when I first met him. That was pretty horrifying.

   - "You probably ask yourself if something happened to your brother, aren't I right?"

   - "Yes sir.."

   - "Oh? No need to be so formal! You can just call me Bokuto or however you please! Anyways, getting straight to the point. Shinsuke told everyone about the situation. Your brother is safe, he'll be here tomorrow the first thing in the morning. He knows that you're here, so no need to worry about that part. Do you have any other questions?" He said looking straight in my eyes.

   - "Well Bokuto-san... What will happen to Kita-san and the others? He told me that I will never come back to Hyogo.. Does Kita-san know something and didn't tell me?"

   - "If Shinsuke knows something and he didn't tell you about it, then he has a good reason for it. And to answer your first question.. I'm not really sure what will happen to them. It depends on who the attacker is, what is it's point of view and more other criterias.. But as far as I know Shinsuke, he won't do anything reckless that will put any of his comrades' lives in more danger than they already are. That's all I cam say for sure." Bokuto slowly relaxed his back, leaning down on his chair.

            He was looking calm. How can he be calm in a situation of this kind? Well, I'm sure that he has been through a lot of situations like these, but still...

            I looked at him, admiring his facial features. Some threads of white and black hair were resting peacefully on his big and clear forehead. I looked at his right arm, analysing the tattoo. Whoever made it, it surely must have a lot of patience. Even and the smallest details were so well done.

            As I snapped out of my thoughts, Bokuto began to talk again, breaking the silence, and having the same calm tone in his voice:

   - "If anything happens to Shinsuke and Inarizaki... I promised him that I'll protect you in the best way possible, so I must partner you with the best man I have.. And that is Sakusa Kiyoomi." I raise one of my eyebrows when I heard the familiar name.
           
            As far as I knew that guy, he wasn't... Nice. Not at all. Or maybe he is actually good and he was just shy or something. I hoped that it was the second option.

   - "I hope that you two will get along. He isn't the nice type of guy, so you shouldn't be surprised if he insults you 24/7. Though, if you want to survive with him, I feel obligated to give you some advices.. You should never make a mess in his car or touch him if you want to see the daylight again. Shoyou once patted his shoulder in a friendly way and he almost got shot in his head, but luckily he missed the shot."

            Great. That's exactly what I needed right now. A partner that needs to protect me because Oikawa is hunting me down, but would also gladly kill me on the spot if I touched him. Life couldn't hate me more than this.

   - "So... Now that you know everything there is to know, I wish you good luck with Sakusa. Hopefully we'll get to see you alive after the first day spent with him." He looks at me, all his attention directed to my wet hair. "You'll be staying in one of our apartments, just as all of us."

            After Bokuto told me how to get to my room and gave me the keys, I bowed and thanked him for his hospitality, then walked out of his office, closing the door carefully after me.

            On my way to the flat, I got lost for about 3 times, but then I finally figured out the right way. I entered the apartment and couldn't believe my eyes when I saw.....
