i took a deep breath, my shaky hand twisting the handle to kokos office, relief washing over me at the sight of an empty chair when i opened the door, quietly closing it as my feet quickly went towards his desk

"i need to hurry." i whispered to myself, knowing ken was outside waiting for me, under the impression i was taking my sweet time in the bathroom as my hands quickly opened kokos laptop, my face painted with disappointment when i was met with an 'enter password' screen.

"you gotta be fucking kidding." the pit in my stomach grew as i hurried to open any and every drawer the shitty desk had, going through papers for anything like a mad man, feeling the lump in my throat worsen.

"yeah, we should be getting lots from this mission." my head shot up as my eyes focused on the door, kokos voice causing panic to course through my veins as i internally begging every god he wouldn't open it.

"yeah, l/n and ryuguji should get the job done easily." kakucho replied, my teary eyes turning their attention to the handle.

my heart sank at the sight of it moving, hurrying to hide under the desk and steady my breathing, thoughts racing through my head faster than i could process as i kept my body gently pressed against the wood.

"well, i have things to do kaku, ill talk to you later" koko said, his voice became clearer when he opened the door, allowing me to hear kakucho walk away, more than likely getting ready to assassinate me.

i placed my hand over my lips to muffle any sounds i'd potentially make, the heaviness on my chest making it harder to hold my breath as i listened to kokos heeled shoes step inside the room.

my eyes widened at the sight of the others feet stopping in front of the desk, my hand tightening around my mouth as i heard him mumble to himself

"did i leave this open?" he slightly leaned towards one the bottom drawer i was looking through, all the hope i had leaving my body as he inched closer, tears stinging at my eyes.

i wasn't gonna make it, was i?

"koko! mikeys calling for you!" sanzu faintly yelled, koko letting out an agitated sigh before standing up straight and kicking the drawer out of frustration, the action making me flinch as he walked out of the room.

my hand was sweaty as i lifted it off my face and gasped for air, feeling lightheaded
"oh my god.." i gulped as i used the office chair to help me clumsily stand, starting to sift through papers again

"theres gotta be something, anything" my voice trembled as my eyes quickly scanned over the area before noticing a dull sticky note taped on the outside of one of the drawers, the paper placed neatly by the railing as my eyes widened and quickly read the messy handwriting on it.

"holy fucking shit.." i gave a small laugh, feeling like i could fall to my knees out of pure relief as i read the random numbers and letters, my fingers quick to type them into the laptop.

i stared at the screen as it unlocked, refraining from sending myself every last bit of yen they had in their account as i bit the inside of my lip, knowing it would just make them search for me quicker.

koko without a doubt notice the missing cash immediately, hopefully getting brushed off like usual from the amount of times he had outbursts about the gangs money in the past.

no one would think much of it anyways, especially since it was me.

"he'd never steal." sanzus eyes made their way towards me, the glint in his eyes disturbing as i stayed quiet and avoided his gaze, takeomi still spewing accusations at me.

"i should kill both of you for lying to me." the older man threatened, looking at us as sanzus hand rested on my shoulder

"and why would i lie? theres no reason for me to." the brothers shared a disdained stare, sanzus hand making its way to the top my head as he spoke
