"Y/N!" Was the last thing you heard before you were out, your body collapsing to the ground as you blacked out.
Your body was drained from dealing with the drug given to you hours before, the time ticking dangerously close to the end of your time limit.
You were given 5 hours to finish the puzzle before the drug became lethal, and you were currently an hour until that mark.
-
"No no! Damnit! Not yet we still have time?!" Akutagawa said, his voice rushed and panicked at the sight of your current state.
He was currently scooping you up, trying to shake you gently to get you to wake.
Though to no surprise it was no affect.
"Their body is weak from fighting the drug, they are still fine if what that bastard said was true. So stay calm and let's just figure this puzzle out!" Chuuya said, his gaze scanning across the painting ahead.
There was a frustrated sigh from Akutagawa before he joined the man at scanning the painting, you staying secure in his arms.
"Follow the Red, Yellow, Green, Blue sequence by going from left eye to left hand then left foot, then from right eye to right hand then right foot." Chuuya recited from the paper, his gaze moving from the paper to the painting.
"None of that makes any sense." Akutagawa said, sounding frustrated and annoyed.
He tried looking around for anything he could, hopeful to find another clue or object to use.
Though he could only carry you for so long before his febal body started to give out.
Though he didn't dare set you down and leave you unattended.
Chuuya soon found a few markers by the painting, confusion twisting on his face.
"What the fuck are these for?!" He shouted, grabbing all four of them as he looked back at the paper.
Akutagawa made his way back to him, a cough escaping his lips as he held you closer.
He too was looking at the markers, his face confused as he tried to figure out the use for them.
"Maybe we have to draw on the painting?" Akutagawa said, his voice strained from all his worrying.
"Maybe, in some orderrr.... I got it!" Chuuya said, hope in his voice after thinking for awhile on the possibilities.
Chuuya moved up to start drawing on the image, shifting between each color as he moved from the animals legs to arms.
Akutagawa watched the man work, hope on his face as he waited to see if it'll work.
Though chuuya had to ask for help a few times, the painting being way bigger then he could reach.
Though to all luck, the door opened, revealing a golden hare statue on a pedestal ahead.
Without even a second thought Akutagawa rushed over to the hare, chuuya quickly following suit.
"Thank God, finally!" Chuuya said, grabbing the hare and screwing the head off, the hare being like one of those silly jars at ones grandma's.
Inside was a similar syringe to what was used before the game started, Chuuya quickly pulling it out before examining it.
"How do we know this is really an antidote?" Akutagawa said, his gaze worried and concerned as he looked at the syringe.
"The man doesn't seem like the type to pull anything that obscene, despite his insane nature." Chuuya said, looking Akutagawa in the eyes.
Chuuya motioned him to bring you over, the sound of the clock ticking what seemed to be louder than before.
Chuuya looked at the man, as if asking permission first before giving you the dose.
Akutagawa nodded, picking up on the man's concern.
Chuuya nodded back as he carefully grabbed a hold of you, giving you the dose of the substance.
Now all they could do was hope it works.
-
The two turned around to head back to the main hall of the mansion. Chuuya now having a hold of you to give Akutagawa's arms a break.
The poor man having grown tired carrying your 10x heavier body weight because of your unconscious state.
On the way back they talked about where the others could be, slight anger in their minds at the thought of them just dicking around all these hours.
Mori was smart, they knew that much, so what was he doing being so off track while their smaller group did all the work?
-
As they made their way back the sound of Williams voice soon filled their ears.
"Oh great, you made it back! All in one piece too! Well... Hopefully." He said, a slight chuckle escaping his lips.
The others where no where to be found, only causing confusion and worry in the two boys.
"I swear I'm going to kill you for this stunt you pulled!" Chuuya said, his fists clenching in anger as he glared at the man above.
"Over a game? How immature." He replied, completely unfazed at his actions.
"This wasn't some game! You played with my friends life you bastard!"
"You could have killed someone just for your own enjoyment! You have no right to live!" Akutagawa chimed in, his voice laced with venom.
"Oh relax! They will wake up soon and all will be fine! If I knew you guys would fail I wouldn't have chosen you to participate."
"I'll still fucking kill you! What if something went wrong?!" Chuuya shouted, his anger only growing at the man's immaturity.
"Then a mistake would happen, and I'd compensate you accordingly."
"You can't just compensate for someone's life! Are you a complete fool?!" Akutagawa snapped again, his gaze hardening as he tried to contain his anger.
He hated how he couldn't use his ability, wishing nothing more then to rip him to shreds.
Chuuya soon handed you back to Akutagawa, wanting his hands free so he could go after the man himself.
His temper hitting the point he didn't care if he had his ability or not.
Poor Akutagawa knowing his body is too worn out to do the same without the help of his ability.
Though as Chuuya was about to lunge for the man, a voice interrupted him.
"Now now chuuya, let's think rationally."
