(Intruder!)

And so, from somewhere, from behind the stairs, he moves

With no lights, his stealth took a boost

Truly a shadow

*Thud*

*Thud*

*Thud*

The footsteps now so loud, audible to any ear

The figure, now at the door

"Huh? Why's the door open?"

Close of the door

Whoever they are, nonchalantly they ignored the mystery

Retrace of the steps and he returns from initially

Yet, this time, it would prove useless

Silent, from behind, another shadow emerges

From there, a foot combats another foot

Tripped, and with full force

*Thud!*

Loud and clear, the thud, the technique, almost proved brutal

On the ground, the full body now laid, with one arm, the right arm, pulled up by this shadow

The face, planted thoroughly on the ground, weight came from his back, a knee dropped down to the back shoulder

"Guh-What the

"Ahhhhhh!"

Laid on the ground, a scream of pain

His arm, raised to be restricted, his body, unmoving, unable to

Legs stunned and stationed, the other arm, pinned by an arm as well

Grunts of pain, continued in this dark space

His body, in pain, his muscles, bones, ligaments, as if fragile glass, almost breaking

A moment that only lasted seconds, with new footsteps coming, faster than ever

"What happened!?"

A voice, panicked and fearful, the lights opened, what was revealed was

"Onii-chan!?"

He, on top of another person, he was the restrainer

"What are you doing!?"

Asking his brother

"There's an intruder, let's call the police"

"He's not an intruder!"

He looked at who he pinned down, a man with a face almost losing consciousness

"That's Taishi-kun!"

"Eh?"

There they were, in the sofa they sat currently

In front of him, his sister, and the "intruder"

Yet he, he did not sit, his figure straight and tall

"Anyway! Onii-chan! Why did you have to pin him down like that!?"

Komachi, voicing the first complaint

"Someone I don't know is in my house, either I call the police or I take him down myself"

His voice, stubborn, and tough

"And also, why is he here?"

"Uhmm"
