Shadows Of The Twilight (Book-II)

<27>

(Same day)

(3rd person's pov) :

Haruno and Naomi; the two girls of the Agency staff already gets attack by the two Guild members.
According to the Agency's plans, Offensive Team-A, Kunikida and Tanizaki were to hold the enemy while the two girls escapes through the passenger train.

The Offensive Team-B including Atsushi, Emily and Dazai waits for the girls in the train station.

........

The three of them were sitting on a bench waiting for the train to arrive.

Emily was sitting on the middle crossing her arms and legs, Dazai was on her right resting his head on her shoulder, and Atsushi was simply sitting on her left.

"Still no sign of the Train.. it's late. I hope Naomi and Haruno are okay..." Atsushi spoke up breaking the silence.

"The Head of the Port-Mafia is the human manifestation of streamlining." Dazai replies still leaning down on Emily's shoulder, "You can definitely count on Mr. Mori for a number of things." He says and the tiger boy faces the couple.

"Yeah, Mori controls the situation with cold, and a complete mathematical detachment." Emily added as she continues with a serious look, "That includes, taking the advantage of our weakness especially if we have our guards down."

As time passes by, there was no sign of the train.
Suddenly, Emily holds Dazai's hand as he lifted up his head. They shared a serious glance.

"Atsushi" Dazai calls in a serious tone standing up from the bench as the tiger boy nervously asked, "W-what's up?"

"There's an urgent errand I need to carry out~" Dazai seriously said making Atsushi worry, "W-what is it?!"

Dazai quickly hunch over as he held his stomach, "I NEED TO USE THE BATHROOM!"

Atsushi sweat-drops as Dazai already ran off while shouting, "Oh no, I am not gonna make it---"

Emily let out a sigh as she calmly stood up walking towards the same route as Dazai.

"Hey Emily.. where are you going now?" Atsushi asks from behind.

"To make sure that idiot doesn't die in a suicide." Emily said on her back.

"Y-yeah.." Atsushi mumbles with a dumbfounded look as he watches her walking away until both of them just dissapeared from his vision.

✧------✧------✧------✧------✧

Bathroom was an excuse; Dazai and Emily actually went to a dark area. It was an abandoned warehouse.

The young couple's footsteps echoed in the warehouse as they calmly walks inside. As they reached the center of the warehouse, they halted their steps.

"There's no one watching us here, you can come out now." Dazai calmly calls out.

In a blink of an eye, a familiar presence stood behind Emily with a knife by her throat.

Emily smirks, "My my~ if it isn't Gin~"

Dazai tilts his head to look over at Gin holding the big knife at Emily's neck, "Nice to see you Gin, you have grown taller~" Dazai commented with a smile.

Hearing footsteps upfront, the couple gaze up to see the same lady from before; Higuchi of the Mafia, in a black suit who's also Auktagawa's secratary.

Higuchi walks forward pointing a gun at them and then she stops, standing at a few feet away from the couple.

"How did you two know that we were watching you this whole time?!" Higuchi questions as she looks at the two of them with narrowed eyes.

"Well, Emily and I were the ones who created all of the Port-Mafia's surveillance techniques, after all~" Dazai smiles casually replying her.
