Shattering the World

☾ 1 ☽

It was currently 1 AM in the morning and Dazai was currently waiting behind a random bar.

Few days ago

Dazai was sitting at a bar enjoying his drink when he turned around and saw someone he didn't expect to see.

Fyodor Dostoyevsky.

What is the demon doing here?

Noticing that he has caught Dazai's attention, Fyodor slowly walks up to him. Dazai watches as Fyodor takes the seat next to him.

"My my, I didn't expect to see you here Dazai-kun." says the demon.

"Demon Fyodor..." he replies.

Fyodor smiles and turns to the bartender to order a drink. A few moments pass in silence as they drink their drinks.

"Say, what is your business here Fyodor- kun?" Dazai asks.

Fyodor hums in response. "I have an offer for you." He says.

Dazai was shocked by Fyodor's words. What could the demon possibly want with him?

"Hm? Let me hear it."

"I want you to join us in the Decay of Angels." Fyodor says.

Dazai stills, Fyodor was known to be unpredictable. What would Fyodor earn from Dazai joining him? The Decay of Angels? What's that? He had a lot of questions that he knew wouldn't be answered. He quickly smiles at Fyodor and says, "Oh? I'll think about it." Fyodor smiled and got up and paid for his drink. Before he left he gave Dazai a time and date and their meet up place.

Present

And that was how he got here, standing behind a random bar at 1 AM in the morning. He thought about Fyodor's offer for a while, and he finally came up with his decision.

Looking up from his phone, Dazai sees a dark figure approaching him. He can see the movement of his coat as Fyodor walks to him. Fyodor stops right next to him, for a few seconds there is nothing but silence. Dazai watches the demon as he turns to him.

With a smile on his face he says, "It's quite nice out."

"Indeed," Fyodor turns his head away from Dazai, and looks into the night sky, "What is your reply to my offer?"

"I'll join you." Dazai says as he turns to face Fyodor.

"Wonderful." Fyodor smiles. Dazai doesn't know why he accepted Fyodor's offer, but he can't go back now. "3 PM, here's the address." He hands Dazai a note with words scribbled out.

The sounds of footsteps echo across the dark room. He watched as the Russian man stop in front of him and bows.

"Dazai-kun has accepted the invitation to join us, sir." The Russian says.

He smirks, "Perfect. Did you give him the meeting spot?"

Fyodor nods.

"Now that we have the nullification ability user on our side, we are near unstoppable. We'll obtain the book and eliminate the country." He laughed.

"You may go now, Fyodor."

With that he watches as Fyodor walks out the door.

There was a 50/50 chance of Dazai accepting the invitation. Rather than approaching the ex-mafioso himself, he asked Fyodor to do it knowing they have had history together.

Sigma,

Fyodor Dostoyevsky,

Nikolai Gogol,

And now,

Dazai Osamu.

How wonderful. The man stands up and tucks his chair in. He starts packing up his things, he closes the blinds and makes sure everything is clean before he walks out the door. Everything so far is going as planned.

A/N: Yeah short chapter, sorry! I am kinda back from the dead <3 and back in my BSD phase. Sorry if things are inaccurate, I haven't read the other chapters in the manga (aside from the recent ones) in awhile.
