BONTEN'S NUMBER FOUR


She sat down in front of three familiar men, the men she never thought she'd meet again. But it's different now, because she used to be a princess they vowed to protect but now she's equal to them; she's no longer a damsel in distress, she now rules her own kingdom.


"Long time no see, Sano," she greeted and crossed her legs, she took off her coat and hand it to one of her men who went with her, "what do you want from me?"


"Sachiro Y/N," Sano Manjirou, Bonten's leader, greeted, "I'm glad you made it."


Standing on his right is Sanzu Haruchiyo whose hair is no longer in ponytail but in a mullet cut, and on his left is Kakucho Hitto. Bonten's number two and number three.


She took the glass of whiskey laid out in front of her, "Kyoko," she called her female right hand, "taste this whiskey for me in case there's poison in it."


It may sound harsh, but that is part of her assistant's job description. Since Y/N is a very powerful person, a lot of people would try to kill her. Every possible way listed are now crossed out from the number of threats they threw her way. She's not that easy to kill though, as they said, hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.


She's not afraid of hell, she is the embodiment of it.


Kyoko took a sip and waited for almost a minute before giving it back, "it's safe, boss."


She took it back and sipped from it. Sanzu can't help but smirk, no longer the gullible princess I used to bully.


"So, what do you want?" Y/N asked again, "kind of impressed that you found out about me leading this gang. As far as I know, they're having a hard time figuring out."


They may have attempted to kill her, but nobody knows what she really looks like. She wears a red coat, mask on. The only way to identify her is through her visible tatt and iconic red finger nails. She also goes by the name Kaze, which means shadow, for all her crimes are committed in the dark.


Manjirou smirked, "you're underestimating our intel as if you weren't with us for years."


She rolled her eyes at that memory, "does he know?"


Manjirou shook his head, "just us, for now."


Sanzu laid out some papers on the table, and Kyoko took it and gave it to her boss. She started reading the proposed partnership between two powerful organization in Japan.


"You hate Kisaki Tetta, right?" Manjirou started while she's still reading, "he's our biggest enemy right now. Kisaki Tetta, the guy who killed your precious brother. It's been a year since you reach the top, but you never caught him."


The mention of Kisaki's name sparked huge anger inside her. To kill him is an understatement, she wants to see him suffer for killing an innocent seven year old boy who she treasured so much.


"Kisaki is the reason why you changed a lot," Manjirou used her hate to his advantage, "Kisaki was also the reason why I lost two of my siblings. You get me, don't you? This darkness that consumed us is caused by one man."


She looked at him with dead eyes. Eyes that used to hold so much happiness, but it was years ago. She's no longer alive inside. She's dead, plain dead.


"So you and me together would catch that bastard, you mean?" she smirked, "I may hate all of you, but if that's one way to catch him, sure. But, don't kill him yet if you find him first. I want to see him suffer."


"Deal," Manjirou agreed. He understands her, more than anyone.


Y/N took her red pen and signed the contract, sealing the partnership between two large organizations.


They both stood up and met halfway, "also, being part of Bonten would allow you to take revenge on the man who broke your heart," Manjirou proposed


"He's none of my concern, I don't give a fuck about him," she answered


Manjirou smirked, "just in case you want to take revenge then. Welcome to Bonten, Sachiro Y/N."


Since then, she became the mysterious Bonten's number four.
