It was cloudy that day, Shizuo would never thought that the weather turn this bad. He looked upwards only to hear a sound of thunder clashing. "It's going to rain hard soon", Shizuo sighed. Looking around the streets for food he encounter Kadota and his gang.

"Yo", Shizuo greet them since he's in a good mood. "Yo Shizuo", Kadota greet back. The gang seems restless and worry about something, Shizuo notice their changing expression. "What's up?", Shizuo asked.

"It's nothing, there's a rumor of kidnapped member of Dollars around the streets", Kadota said worriedly. "Is it the color gang or...". Kadota furrowed his temple, Shizuo clicked his tongue in annoyance knowing that the bastard 'flea' he hates so much must be involve in this.

"Tch, it must be him", Shizuo growled. "Look at this", Kadota showed a picture of an unconscious red haired girl being carried by an unknown boy. Shizuo narrowed his eyes to the images, he felt as if he know the girl. "I know her", Shizuo clicked his tongue. "Of course you know her, I think I've seen you saved her from kidnapping before", Kadota implied. The bartender widened his eyes in disbelief.

"It's Chika?", Shizuo growling in anger. "What the hell is that 'flea' doing!?".

"Why Shizuo?", Kadota asked enthusiastically. With half annoyed face, Shizuo lit up his cigarette, walking pass Kadota gang he marched to Izaya place. The crowds staying away from Shizuo way, sensing the rage of the bartender just by seeing his face. Few minutes later, he arrive at Izaya penthouse. He stood firmly in front of the door while pressing the doorbell repeatedly every seconds.

"IIIIIIZAAAAAAAAYAAAAAA-KUN~", Shizuo growled in anger. "O-P-E-N THE FUCKI-N-G DOOR!". Instead of Izaya, a woman appeared. "He's not here so stop it", the woman sighed. The woman have long brown hair and...hey wait, he's seen her before, but totally forgot who she is. "Where the hell is he?", Shizuo gritted his teeth.
"He said something about going to a house in the west area", the woman answered not caring.

Shizuo clicked his tongue, "Fine, tell me where it is". The woman gave Shizuo a piece of paper with a specific address written on it. "Thanks", Shizuo said hurriedly and leave Izaya place in a glimpse, jumping from the window. When he's gone the woman a.k.a Namie chuckled while signing in desperation, "Is he really that stupid? He hasn't change a bit". Looking back Namie signaled a certain informant, "He's already out of pictures Izaya". An evil smirk plastered on that informant face in a twisted way, "Good, I can focus on whatever I want to do now~".

* * *

Shizuo notice of how his cellphone keep beeping like crazy, with an annoyed look he flip his cellphone. He look closely to a picture of gang wars. "Kids these days", Shizuo grunted. But another picture came out with a 'help' sentence that piqued his interest.

"Help! I saw thugs of colors gang fighting with each other!".

"They're on the West District! Please someone stop them!".

There are several screenshot of the white bike gang and some thugs fighting with each other. "What the heck is going on?", Shizuo ruffled his hair annoyed,not understanding what the heck is going on.

"Several kidnapping cases had been happened around the a Ikebukuro district, according to the police. The famous toy factory Muiba factory has been involved deeply in this cases. When the police was asked for where did they get the information they only answer 'We got it from a certain man, and he does not wish his name to be spoken of'".

Shizuo got a feeling that this 'man' they referring to is Izaya. Shizuo is hella pissed but he can't help to go to where the address is. Feeling somewhat uneasy at the address the woman gave him. When he arrived there, he saw a gang fight outside a large mansion. He saw Kadota was involved along with a certain guy with hat. Shizuo blinked for a bit.
"What the hell is going on?", Shizuo still confused with what happened. His cellphone beeping again, this time he saw an image of a red haired girl being carried to a large mansion. The mansion near him really look similar with the one in image.

"Huh...so this is the place?", Shizuo sighed. But he wonders about the person who 'SENT' the images. Whoever it is, he pissed cause the sender only take pictures and didn't help the kidnapped girl at all.

"Shizu-chan~".

Shizuo froze a bit.

"That voice...", Shizuo thought with a raging mind.

"Shizu-chan~", the same annoying voice repeated, as if it wants to taunt Shizuo. Shizuo turned around to see Izaya Orihara with his famous trademark smirk. "Yo Shizu-chan~, do you miss me?".

* * *

The situation turn much more worse, but Izaya didn't waver. Well it's his scenario after all, taunting Shizuo in front of Muiba house, making a gang war. All of these events were under his invisible thread. As expected of Shizuo reaction, he's raging with anger and walked closer to him. "IZAYAAAA !!", Shizuo growled and try to hit the informant but of course he able to dodge it smoothly. "What are you planning this time?", Shizuo hissed with beastly voice. "What are you talking about Shi-zu-chan~", Izaya teased the hot tempered bartender with his playful tone.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Lalala...lalala~", a humming voice echoed through the empty corridor of a mansion. A sound of footstep drawing near. "I wonder how is my princess doing...?", a boy in gold eyes eyeing on the red door in front of him. Opening it slightly, lies a sleeping scarlet haired girl on the silky pink bed.

I only wanted to hear...your voice

I want to hear more...

More...

More...

More of your voice, calling for me.

Say that I need you

I want you

I will always protect you

Forever under my arms...

The boy grabbed her hand gently with possessive gesture.

This skin is mine only

This pure white skin is mine only

Mine

Mine

Mine

Mine

His eyes glowed more with a sadistic smile on it.

"I miss you...Chika-chan", he cupped her forehand
