the brothel

You looked blankly at the old man, his hand stretched to you ready for you to hold in any minute, your eyes looked back and forth between his face and his dirty palm, and before he could blink, you were already running away.

"YAAAAAAAA!!!" You yelled as you ran as fast as your little feet could take you from him, it was obvious he was trying to kidnap you and you knew better than trust an old sketchy guy who's nose still had white powder on it.

You were with Tsukishima a minute ago, next thing he was out of your sight like the wind blew him off. Now, it was only you in the middle of Tokyo, no way to go home..no one you knew. The lights, people bumping over and over again into your tiny body knocking it over and over again, it was overwhelming..

"Oh my.." "!!!" Until you crashed to a lady, she managed to grab you before falling, her cigarette falling to the ground and the smoke slowly faded away as it touched the cold ground. "Are you okay?" She crunched down, picking you up slowly and dustin your clothes off, she smelled like cigarettes smoked with a nice perfume trying to cover it, her hair beautifully done and face full off make up. You nodded slowly and apologized, "why are you out here alone? Where are your parents?" Her concerned eyes scanned your face, it was all red from running and the frosting cold that she took off her scarf and wrapped it around you, "I got lost..I don't know where big bro is.." you mumbled to her, she awed and picked you up, holding her bags in the other hand "How about I help you find him? I have a place we can pass by real quick" could you really trust her? I mean..she looked trustworthy and it's better than an old man barely able to stand after his 6th beer..

She held you tightly the whole time, humming beautifully that it cut off all the loud noises around you, her warmth made you snuggle even closer to her, desperate for it. It was like...a mother's warmth...

"Alright dear, close your eyes. Don't open them till I tell you" and you obeyed like a little puppy, music blasting everywhere she turned, door opening and then "KEN! COME HERE!!"

And before you knew it, a blond and a silver hair boy were blinking at you. "Geez..what a night" the blond jumped on the bed next to you, "okay, we'll see whose closest and drop them off" the lady came back, this time..she was wearing a loose transparent cloth, the only parts covered where her private ones.

"Where do you live?" She smiled reassuringly but you kept silent "...your street name?" The blond ask, you turned to him and put your finger on your chin, like you were in deep thought "Sora! It's more of a nickname though!" You grinned stupidly, they were trying to hold the urge from smacking your head to a wall "you don't know where you live???" The silver haired yelled, his mind clicking making the other two squint their eyes at me in disbelief "good job!" You gave him a thumb up confirming what he said "you're an idiot" they said in union at your proud smile.

"I'm Ryuguugy Ken, what's your Name?" Ken asked "Sorachi Yamazaki.." you answered with a smile "and this is Joker, Mitsuya" he then added, the boy had his arms crossed, a red tint colored his cheek. "Do you have family information?" The lady asked, a small hope in her voice and you gasped and began to go through your pockets and pulled out a paper "oh God, your family must really not trust you" Mitsuya chuckled and patted my shoulder after the lady announced a number was on it "that's not true!" You huffed making him laugh and ruffle your hair.

"Alright alright, let's get you home..."

Ken's pov:

Fuck..it hurts..

"OI!!" Who..who is that? "GET AWAY FROM HIM!" sounds... familiar.. "ken!? Ken-kun!!" A little figure covered the burning sun off my bruised face, I had to blink a few times to regain my unconsciousness or at least hold into it.

"You..what are you doing here??" The moment the image began to focus, Sorachi's eyes were the first thing I noticed, making me jolt in shock "I was passing by and found you.." she explained, her hand on my shoulder, I shook my head only for my eyes to caught the high-schoolers that beat me up on the ground, a few missing, maybe some already- "sorry, some of those assholes escaped.." until Sorachi stood up, extending me her hand that her oversized sleeve hid since it was taller, but I took it..

"You..you beat them up??" I gulped, maybe I'm dreaming, no, it hurts too much so I am not dreaming, then it could be someone else and she happens to find me "of course, they were hurting you" she confirmed.

What..

In the hell..?

"I like your tattoo" minutes of silent walking finally cut off, I instantly snapped my head to her when she spoke, nodding and looking to the ground again, Damn.

'SHE'S SO COOL!!'

"Want some Karubi-Don?" It was then I snapped back again, and found myself in a store, since when have I been following her?? "Yoo-hoo~" Sora's hand waved right across my eyes to get my answer, which I of course agreed to.

"I FINALLY FOUND YOU! RYUGUUGI KEN!" I recognized this one instantly "Mitsuya??" I could feel sweat roll down my cheek as we took in each other's features, walking closer to each other for a better look and hoping our eyes are not playing games.

"Wow. You both got the same look, like Dragon twins!" Mitsuya and I slowly turned to Sora as she took a bite out of the Karubi-Don she was holding, standing right in the middle between us "Though..it fits Ken-kun better" she grinned with eyes closed as we kept silent, but I could notice the glint in Mitsuya's eyes. So were mine.

"Want some Karubi-Don?"

Then she extended her food at us.
