Psychokinesis (Dazai x Reader)

Chapter 5: Smoke from the explosion

I never disobey the members of the Port Mafia, let alone an executive.
But I feel uneasy leaving him here, not because he's weak but maybe I've grown attached to someone I shouldn't have.
Still, I left the scene and ran back to headquarters with the Russian leader on the weight of my power.

As I panted and wiped my sweat after running for so long, I heard a loud sound coming from where I came from. What happened? Is Chuuya alright? He didn't use.. "that" did he?

I finally made my way back to the Port Mafia and immediately, I saw Higuchi. I asked her to check on Chuuya whom I left at the garage.

If something happens to him, is it my fault?

-At the Agency-

Dazai: oh? Atsushi-kun! Where'd you come from, you look rough..

Atsushi: you would never believe this.

Ranpo: you were walking near the abandoned garage and it suddenly exploded?

Atsushi: YES! I don't know what happened but I think there's a fight in there or something, oh I'm so scared.

Dazai: you're scared? You who were sliced into pieces by Akutagawa, attacked by Fitzgerald, fought by Kyoka.. honestly, it's a long list.

Atsushi: well, explosions are loud. 

Kunikida: Is this about the explosion? Perfect, the president ordered me to investigate about that. Apparently, someone complained about their possessions blown up by the incident. 

Atsushi: you mean we're going back? oh maan.

 Kunikida: mm, Dazai and I will go. After all, you're not doing anything right now aside from being a nuisance?

 Dazai: Ouch, that's hurtful, Kunikida-kun! I'll forgive you this once though cus that ramen was really good. 

Kunikida: WHAT RAMEN?

Y/N'S POV

After that risky mission, Mori ordered me to stay inside the building and avoid going outside till things settle down. I don't even know if I, myself can settle down after hearing that loud sound which apparently was an explosion. 

"You think they'll be okay?" I asked Gin, not really minding her answer. The fact that she rarely even speaks slipped my mind due to feeling anxious. 

"What's one violation right?" I spoke, sighing multiple times after coming up with the decision I'm about to make. Gin grabbed my arm to stop me but I removed her grip using my ability.

"I'm sorry, Gin. I will be back"

Gin: ..okay, stay safe. 

That's probably the first time I heard her talk. She and I naturally became friends since we're about the same age and we're almost always together ever since I joined, we would eat together and sometimes, watch movies after a long day's work. I didn't think she'd try to stop me from making this huge mistake since she minds her business more than anyone but I'm grateful to know she cares. 

I ran as fast as I could back to the garage where I left my partner for this mission. As I got closer, the smell of smoke got stronger and it was harder to breathe. 

I didn't think the fire would've spread this much and before I knew it, I was surrounded by flames. I couldn't see up ahead and my eyes were starting to tear up as I inhale the fetid smoke. 

Cough, cough

As a psychokinesis ability user, I could've lifted myself up but there's obviously limitations to what I can do. I can only lift one thing up at a time and the longer I carry them, the heavier they get. 

I should've carried myself, but why?

Why'd I save you instead, Dazai-san?
