Soukoku Mini Stories

I'm envious of their happiness. (Story 2)

 !!! (I made up a totally random female character in this chapter, she is not a part of the real manga/show!!! Just made up from my imagination.) !!!

"Dazai! You may come into my office now!" Mori was sitting being his desk fiddling with a rusted knife. Dazai came into the office raising an eyebrow of suspicion. "What's going on boss?" "Well, we have a new member joining us. Her name is Clove Bellatrix..." Mori kept talking about the new member's information, it put Dazai in a boredom trace causing him to space out. "Chuya- Dazai? Are listening to me?" Dazai got out of his trance and looked at his twisted boss. "What about Chuya boss?" Mori had a devilish smirk appear on his face. "Clove and Chuya will now work together. Their abilities will work well together to take down our blood-sucking enemies." Dazai's jaw dropped, "Woah, woah boss! You're pairing Chuya with the new girl? What about me? Am I partner-less now?" Mori adjusted his posture and intertwined his hands together. "For now yes." "But boss that's not-" "Dazai, I have a two o'clock coming in soon, please be on your way." Dazai huffed under his breath leaving Mori's twisted office. "He's such a pain in the ass" Dazai groaned out loud waiting for the elevator. He heard laughter coming from an office nearby, he followed the laughter. The laughter lead to Chuya and Clove sitting together at a desk drinking coffee.

Dazai clenched his fists together, he was ready to murder Mori or Clove. "Oh, Dazai. Have you meant Clove? I'm gonna be working with her for a while. At least that's what shithead Mori told me. Did you get a new partner Dazai?" "Uh, not quite, Mori says he's giving me a really big mission soon. So, he gave me some vacation actually." Dazai sat on the desk by Chuya. "Lucky you shit face, then what are you still doing here? Don't you wanna get out of this hell hole?" "Well, Mori sent me to babysit you and the rookie here since you two are going to fuck everything up. You need a babysitter to clean your mess." "Haha, very funny asshole. I'm older than you, and Clove is older too. We don't need you to babysit us." Dazai snatched Chuyas coffee drinking it in front of his 'ex-partner' face. "Hey Chuya, we just got a task. It is downtown, let us go." Both clove and Chuya got up grabbing their jackets leaving Dazai on the desk. "A bullshit mission." Dazai leaped up following the two. The trip downtown was awkward, Clove and Chuya were talking about different types of wine. Dazai clenched the steering wheel, he could murder this girl at any second, but he kept his cool. "There's your three robbers go get them." Dazai pointed to three big muscular men running out of a bank with silver suitcases. "Shut up shitface." Both Clove and Chuya ran to the criminals fighting them. Clove's ability was 'snakes', she could summon different types of snakes and use them in her defense. Dazai leaned against the car sighing.

"It appears I was wrong." A voice appeared behind Dazai, but he recognized the voice of his own boss. "You totally were the wrong boss. Chuyas's ability is unbelievably strong, not as strong as mine of course. Clove has a weak ability compared to Chuya's." "You're right Dazai." Mori walked away soon fading into nothingness. Chuya and Clove were bruised up but they got the three suitcases. "You guys suck, that took too long I turned 30!" Dazai got in the car with Chuya and Clove following. "Oh..shut up asshole." Chuya was out of breath. The car ride was quiet for a while as both of them were catching their breath. "Do you guys have good bars out here? I love to go to one." Clove suggested in the backseat. "Yeah, let's go get drinks, and Dazai gets to pay." Chuya snickered in the backseat. Once they all arrived at a local small bar, the place was empty. They all took their places on stools and ordered drinks. After one beer Chuya was already tipsy, he sluggishly put his arm around Clove as the two of them were chatting away. Dazai clenched his fist again, he took a chugged of his alcoholic drink requesting another one.

The morning sun was echoing in Mori's office windows. Dazai was in front of his desk. "I see...well after seeing those two fightings yesterday. It appears I was wrong. You may partner back up with Chuya." "Thank you, Mori." Dazai left his office making his way to Chuya's office. "Hey Chibi, whatcha doing?" "Clove quit on me. I guess she now works in special division five. Tch." "Oh? The loser division with rejected port mafia members is super sad." Chuya raised an eyebrow, "Wait a minute. Did you know Clove quit?" "Yeah, Mori just told me five minutes ago." "Ugh, great so I'm your partner again?" Chuya rolled his eyes in annoyance, "Yes you are! This is so exciting Chuya!" "Shut up asshole."

10 hours before:

"Jesus Christ, coming! Quit pounding on my door." Clove got up from her slumber opening her apartment door. "Clove, we need to discuss something." "At eleven at night? Can't it wait till tomorrow D-" "No. It cannot. It involves your older brother. Now, you need to let me inside." Clove's green eyes widen as she opened her door fully letting Dazai inside her apartment. "You're older brother has been kidnapped by a member of Black Sheep." "What? You're lying..." "I'm afraid not. This is the kinda shit that happens when you join the port mafia. They did it to me and Chuya too." Clove bit her fingernails anxiously. "How do we save him? Is he still breathing?" "Yes, I recommend you leave the mafia if you want to see him again. The sheep kidnapped him because they hate the port mafia." "That's the thing, I don't want to leave." Dazai looked at her with a cold glare with his singular brunette eye. "I see. What about going into the mafias special division? You will still be a part of the mafia, but located somewhere else in the city." "Sure, but what about my brother? What can I do to save him?" Dazai got up handing her transition papers, "I will have my own party bring him back to you safe and sound. They will lie and say you left the mafia." Clove signed all the papers quickly as possible handing them back to Dazai. "Okay. Thank you. Please update me about the situation." "Of course. I got this taken care of. Goodnight Clove." He left her apartment with a devilish smirk on his face. He shut the door behind him and walked back to his own apartment, laughing the whole way there. "Tch, what a dumbass."
