❝𝙎𝙃𝙄𝙉𝙅𝙐𝙒𝘼 𝙃𝙄𝙏𝙊𝙍𝙄 de wa-dekinai~❞

A cool mellow tone voiced out an oddly sinister tune, the speaker of which walked through the hollowed out alley ways, while spinning a gun atop their fingertips.

Usually, in place of the weapon, they would have possessed a gold coin, which they had currently entrusted in the care of their trouble-seeking partner.

The very same one, with whom they had spent an hour or two of their precious time, which otherwise would have been used to commit suicide, so as to calm him enough not to descend into a state of hyper anxiety.

Again.

Though it was understandable, to an extent.

The poor fellow had just witnessed his childhood friend's suicide, and was exposed to a shit ton of information at a rapid pace.

"Atsushi Sendo....? Hmn, would have been arrested, if that lad was late that day."

They naturally knew who he was, and had also caught the sight of the switchblade in his own possession on the day of that brutal fight fairly easily.

That Akkun in the future became Kisaki's dog, and was also the very person who had pushed Takemichi off the tracks, ten years in the future.

Though, part of the mystery related to the future is clear, since it is now known to them, that one of the reasons that affected him was Draken's death.

'That puppy is a great help after all.'

They smiled slightly as they thought to themselves.

Though the other cause of his troublesome change had to a point come off as a surprise, it was ultimately something they had to consider from now on.

"My disappearance, huh? Well, seems I have less time than I thought."

"Pl-please let me go! I swear I will never let anyone know-Oh my god!-please-"

They remained unfazed as they continued to ignore the desperate, begging voice in the background, as they silenced the broken atmosphere with a single bang.
