The Steel Shadow (Akame ga Kill! x Male Reader)

Kill the "Marksman" (Lemon w/ Kurome)

[First Person POV]

"Heads or Tails?"

My opponent offers a confused look.

"So you're picking tails? I wanted heads anyways."

Betting it all on a coin eh? Didn't think you were the gambling type. Did you really have to flip it-tossing it works perfectly fine right?

Haha, shut up - where's the fun in just throwing it? Besides, if it works, it'll be really cool.

A singular silver coin, flipping at high speeds and gleaming brilliantly only from the lights in the nearby houses, falls in front of my face.

The trigger is pulled, and I grin widely, the coin simply reflects the light that hits it, as heads faces their way, much to my opponent's shock and dismay.

Goddamn, you actually did it.

Get chargebacked bitch.

{Back to where we left off}

[Third Person POV]

Having taken care of everything he needed to on the base, (Y/n) reaches out to Kurome's disk, increasing the temperature a bit and making is vibrate slightly.

{At the palace}

Kurome tries to conceal a smile as she walks out of the palace area. Unfortunately, this does not go unnoticed by a certain doctor.

Stylish watches behind a pillar.

Stylish: "Allowing my servants to take care of tracking down (Y/n) by themselves gives me time to find out more about the people he is close to, and also what secrets they hide. So what's making Kurome, who should be grief-stricken by her lover's disappearance, so happy?"

{Flashback}

"Sir, you won't believe what it is!!!"

Stylish: "Is it another goddamn knife??!!!"

Eyes: "Yes sir, impressive guess sir!"

Stylish: "You stupid idiotic creation!" Stylish throws a punch towards Eyes, who is surprised but unfazed. "How many knives can one guy have?!! Fuck!"

Nose, fearing the Doctor's frustration slightly: "Dr. Stylish, maybe you should head back to do what you like while we continue to look. Your time is much more valuable than our own."

Ears: "Nose has a point Dr."

Stylish sighs and holds a hand to the side of his face: "You're probably right, considering how long it took to find just three knives. The night is nearly over. Seeing as this sort of search is best suited to you Nose, we shall leave you to it. Should you find anything, come to us before doing anything else."

{Flashback over}

Stylish walks away from the palace, and finds a hooded figure.

Stylish: "So you can tail her right? Let me know if she meets up with anyone. I'll pay at an hourly rate, and more significant information means more pay. You understand?"

Hooded figure: "Sure thing Doc. Are you sure there isn't anyone you want me to take out?"

Stylish: "Well, after doing a little digging, I discovered that- actually..." that information is on a need to know basis "Just know that if there's a guy who is around six feet tall with h/c hair that is h/l long and e/c eyes, take him out. Inconspicuously if possible."

Hooded figure: "Well then, time to stalk it seems."

The hooded figure jumps onto a roof before moving at incredible speeds.
