[Im losing ideas, sorry for the not frequent updates. Im trying to finish up this book as quickly as possible tbh so I can move on to the more interesting ones:3]

"Babyyyy!!~" Sakura cooed as she clung onto Mikey's shoulder, in which he let out a grunt of acknowledgement and frustatration.

"Yes? I'm trying to eat dinner now, get off of me." He replied curtly, turning his attention back onto his breakfast. Everybody else however, we're just talking and fooling around with each other.

"You knowwww~ I'm realllllyyy interested in like knowing where our next mission is!~ Maybe I can lead it?~" She hopefully asked. Everybody were staring at her in disbelief at the dining table, some even contemplating whether or not to kick out the woman infront of them.

I quietly sipped my tea before going back to play with my PSP, the sounds of the attacks heard was breaking  the current silence. The tension was so thick you could easily cut it with a knife.

"No, you don't have enough experience, I want you to be safe.." He said, cringing at the last sentence. That however, made Sakura flustered.

"A-Ah~! I'll be fine! Geez, having an overprotective boyfriend sure sucks..! Heheh..." She awkwardly pouted.

"Such a weirdo, even loving the attention of imaginative overprotectiveness." I scoffed quietly. I slowly drank the tea from the cup elegantly before finishing up.

"Anyways Sanzu," Mikey called out, making the said male perk up in hearing his name. "I'm meeting takemitchy today."

"Takemitchy..? You mean that fodder of yours whom you used to imagine as shin?" I questioned, puzzled. Mikey, unbothered by the fact I called Takemitchy fodder, nodded in confirmation.

'Oh.. I see~' I thought in amusement, fiddling with my ring quietly. 

"Can I come too? I wanna see how he looks like after all these years.." I offered meekly.  He gently nodded, making my lips curl up into a small smile of gratitude.

"In fact, we're going tonight." He added on, a very small tint of displeasure laced in his voice. I hummed and nodded again, amused with the current situation.

"Let's go eat dinner already, I'm hungry." I stated, hopping out of the couch and going to the cupboard. I shuffled around, trying to find any instant noodles, which fortunately there was. I smiled happily to myself, tearing open the lid halfway before filling the cup with water. As I walked to the table to settle the food down, I looked over to see Mikey, looking really.. anxious? What was he planning?

{Timeskip, after reader was done eating}

"ARGHHHHHH!! I DON'T KNOW WHAT'S RED DRIP'S NEXT MOVE!! ARGHHHH!!!" A man screamed, pathetically squirming around in his seat. I sighed in defeat, before breaking another one of his hands.

"NGHH- ARGGGHHHHHH!! AH! OUCHH!" He screamed again, tears streaming down his cheeks like rivulets.

"Hmm?.. then you're useless after all." I mused, kicking his head to the side, making him whimper. I sighed before taking out my gun from my pocket and shooting him with no hesitation.

"[Name].. Sanzu, we're going now.." Mikey blankly stated, making me jolt in surprise before quickly running out of the basement and to where he was. I put on my coat and walked out of the mansion, following Sanzu and Mikey.

"Ne ne jiro chan.." I called out, making him almost jump in surprise of hearing me say his nickname again. After a long time, oh his desire finally came true. He quickly recovered from his state of shock and put on a poker face.

"Yes?" He confusedly my replied.

"You're not planning to do anything.. stupid right..?" I peered at him, making him sweat from the sudden question.

'Wha- How? Does she know? That I'm planning to commit..?'

"Yeah.. I won't." He answered after a while, making my suspicions rise up. 

"Oh.. okay." I said, realising we were already at the abandoned bowling alley. I looked, not seeing anybody's appearance yet, and decided to relax into the bench. This was going to take a while..

"Ne ne haru." I called out, making him turn to me almost immediately. My eyes bore holes into him. "Let's play, I'm bored.." 

"Oh-! uh.. sure!" He snapped out of his trance when he saw me put my fingers on my chin.

"Let's make a bet, ok? I'll bet one million that Mikey's fodder's hair colour will be black!" I grinned, gesturing him to make a bet.

"Ok then, I'll bet one million yen too that his hair will still be blonde!" He grinned eerily, making me inwardly smirk.

'Easy money..'

Suddenly, a male came over and sat on a chair a few seats infront of Mikey's and mine, not noting our presence yet. I shoved my arm silently to Sanzu, making him inwardly grumble and handed me the million yen. Mikey soon then decided to make himself known.

"Great future, isn't it?" He spoke up, Sanzu already having his gun cocked to Takemichi's head.

"Don't move, kay? If you do, your brain matter will splatter around on the floor. That's gross though." I blankly added on. 

"Mikey-kun.." Takemichi rasped out in disbelief quietly.

"So, you got anything to ask?" Mikey questioned monotonously. All of a sudden, Takemichi took out something, making me alerted. However, I let my guard down when I saw that it was just an envelope.

"Here, I wanted to give you this." Takemichi stated, trying to pass Mikey the envelope.

"And that is?"

"An invitation to my wedding..

I want you to come, no matter what." Takemichi determinedly said. "Everyone is doing well, just like you promised 12 years ago.

Everyone, including Hina.. is having a happy life.. everyone except you." He added on.

"Oi, shut your mouth." Sanzu scowled, shifting his gun closer to his head.

"Sanzu.." I warned.

"Can you leave us alone, Sanzu.. [Name] can stay since.. she's not annoying." Mikey ordered, making me stifle a laughter. Sanzu growled and reluctantly walked out.

"Mikey-kun.. what exactly is this dark impulsivity?.." Takemichi asked. I spaced out for the rest of the conversation, feeling more sleepy by the minute. Kaburamaru constantly smudged his face together with mine to keep me awake, but other than that I was practically half-asleep.

A gunshot was then heard, making me snap out of my trance. I looked over at the commotion and sighed. It seemed like Mikey had shot Takemichi. I whistled a tune boredly, holding out my hand to let Kaburamaru slither around once in a while.

"I didn't wanna meet.. because it would end this way.

Your long journey ends here.." Mikey nonchalantly stated, walking away from the kneeling takemichi. I stretched a bit while getting up, before following Mikey. However, things soon got confusing when Mikey started walking up to the stairs of the roof.

"Mikey.. what are you doing.?" I quietly whispered. 

"I'll end it all here." Mikey darkly stated, before walking to the edge of the roof.

"Let's do this, everyone!!" He gave a close-eyed grin.

'Wait.. what was happening?' I thought in distress, all frozen up from my spot.

And with that, he jumped down.

"Wait.. what..?" I uttered out, tears already glistening my eyes. I quickly bolted to the edge of the roof, hoping to not see Mikey down there. 

Oh thank god, Takemichi still had a hold on Mikey. I quickly ran down the building in full speed, hoping I could make it in time. However, just one trip, could change my life forever..

A loud thud was heard, and I had fallen down from a huge cart, wasting multiple seconds when I tried to get up.

'Stupid! Stupid!!'
