From Order into chaos (Male reader x Akali)

Chapter 1

"Why did I agree to this?" I scold myself as I walk the streets of this city, I have an address, a message, a mission and one regret.

The regret is coming here in the first place, knowing full well what is going to happen. If I manage to get a word in edge-wise then that is already a win. Whether or not I manage to leave the building unscathed is an entirely different situation.

I'll just try to play nice. Hopefully, the brat didn't let fame get to her head... then again she probably still thinks she is better than me.

Inside the super-massive building, I look around the room. The receptionist spots me, a smile already plastered across her face. This place looks damned expensive, it feels like the dirt on my shoes is already costing them money.

I guess when you are a world-rated popstar group you can pretty much get away with anything.

I stop in front of the receptionist's table trying to force a smile, "G'morning. I am looking for Akali."

"Goodmorning," she tilts her head as she looks at the computer in front of her, "Do you have some sort of appointment or personal plans?"

I shake my head, "Nope."

"Ah... I see. I apologise but you won't be able to visit them-"

I interrupt her, "I am related to Akali. I only wish to talk to her about something in relation to our family. I would ask if you could leave her a message but this is rather important."

She then grabs the phone, "One moment-" she flashes me a smile as she dials the number.

Shit. Now I am definitely going to be blacklisted from this hotel.

"Goodmorning miss, I apologise for bothering you this early... ah yes... right, I have a young man at the reception that claims to be a relative. Do I let him-," she then locks her eyes onto me, "Okay. I will let him know."

I sense someone walking up from behind, "I am going to have to ask you to leave, sir."

That is what I get for trying to lie my way forward, I lower my shoulders forcing another smile, "I understand, good day to you," I then shoot the man behind me a glare which from me only matches my glare.

Choosing the high road, I leave the building before I get shot and/or banned from being around this area. Is that even a thing? I guess people like that are usually in some sort of cell so that is why I can't think of a word that fits that specific description.

Putting that exchange behind me, I head back for the apartments I will be staying at. For the few weeks that I will be staying here - the place is run down and the only reason I chose this place is that it is in a relative price range that I am comfortable with that also puts me quite close to her address.

Opening the door, I almost break it off its already rusted hinges. Shifting awkwardly on my feet, I just shut the door hoping that it will stay in place. The rest of the apartment is in a relatively decent state.

Doing my own inspection on the place, it was surprisingly clean - a lot cleaner than I first anticipated. I am just grateful I haven't found any stains of the sorts that would make you hurl on spot.

None of that luckily.

I can't believe he asked me to do this... I can't believe I agreed to it.

"You want me to go to the city where Akali ran off to and either try and bring her back or somehow get her to come into contact with the Order again?" I then shake my head, "There is no way in all the nine-hells where that woman and I will ever get along.

"I thought you two were best of friends growing up?"

"Like you and Zed?" my remark earns me a stare, I then shake my head, "We were rivals. We never got along and when we did it was because we were forced to. We didn't lack the discipline, I wish I can say the same for our newer members."

He counters, "Think this of a little vacation whilst you are doing a favour for me. The constant pressure from the elders and your position must be tiresome."

"Vacation? In the form of running errands for the people who are too scared to approach Akali themselves?" before he could try and convince me, "Save it. I'll take you up on the offer but I ain't making any promises."

***   ***   ***

Right, I am hoping that somehow I can manage to mend their relationships. Maybe that will get them off of my back and me on their good sides - honestly the more time I think about it, the more I am considering just walking out of the order.

I drop down on the couch, shutting my eyes as I rest my head backwards.

As if. I won't abandon them, I won't walk away. I have to show them that I can be better, that I am better. I just wish they didn't cast her shadow over me.

Shifting my focus back on Akali - how am I supposed to even get close to her? She won't talk to me because it is me that she is going to be talking to. Not to mention that I am still with the Order which is even more reason for her to ignore me.

I can annoy her into talking to me, though I imagine that will just earn me a restraining order and being labelled as a stalker. I would prefer doing this without having the authorities breathing down my neck.

I guess I can lie about the Order, tell her that I left. Yeah, that sounds like the most successful outcome, this isn't about me but about her and her damned relationship with the people that keep comparing me to her.

***   Akali POV   ***

"Hey, Akali."

Lazily dragging my feet behind me, I walk into our apartment greeting Kai'Sa with a yawn, "Yo. I heard someone was looking for me," I drop down on my back, throwing my legs over the couch railing.

"Oh, you will love this," she giggles, "So your brother came to visit today-"

"Huh? Brother?"

She laughs, "Right? Well... from Lucy's description, he is pretty much your age. Now the funny thing is Lucy would have known if it was anyone you were busy seeing - but considering you are single I ruled that out."

"Must be someone from my past trying to find me," I then narrow my eyes, as I stare at the ceiling, "I mean if it was someone from my past who would be as stupid to pretend to me brother? Much less take this long to find me... it is pretty obvious where we live."

She nods, "You have anyone that you left behind when you left the Order?"

I shake my head as I think about the possibilities - there isn't anyone that would just claim something like that and after all this time... wait-

I shake my head again as I drown that thought, "I have no idea."

"Well if he does show up again should I see what I can learn from him?"

I shake my head, "If it is anyone from my past then there is no need. They are probably already on their way back to the temple to reflect on what they did wrong," I roll my eyes.

"Want to go out tonight? Ahri and Eve have already stopped by at the club and wants to know if we are keen on joining them."

"Nah, I sadly have an early day tomorrow," I roll my shoulder, "You go and let the girls know I will be sitting tonight out."

She nods, "Get some rest okay," she gives me a warm smile before disappearing through the door.

My age, huh? It can't be that bastard... he wouldn't dare come for me unless he wants to get some form of revenge for continuously kicking his ass. Then again I wouldn't put something that stupid beside him - I giggle to myself.

That is too far fetched. He hates me, we established it pretty early during our childhood. Though I should feel sorry for him nobody made it any easier for him... he always was a little shadow.

Why am I thinking about him? Oh right. I am thinking too much about it.
