Dead Apple III

Atsushi had only worry on his face as the white tiger was near him. Then the tiger disappeared. 'Did he, accept me?' Atsushi thought. "Now, give me the Book," Shibusawa said. Atsushi only stood up. But before Atsushi could give the Book, he ran through Shibusawa and his father with Dazai. Fyodor was still in shock and thought. "Atsushi-kun!" Shibusawa called. But Atsushi was away.

'I just want, I just want...!' Atsushi thought with tears in his eyes. Then he jumped through the window. He activated his ability, and his hand turned into the white tiger's hand, and he held one of the pillars. He breathed with exhaustion. Then he turned his head to see the Yokohama. The city was still under the fog. 

He sighed. "Why am I cursed....?" Atsushi said as he looked at the book. But as he was planning to hold to the pillar, something held Atsushi. And by shock, Atsushi let go of the pillar and he was dragged down to the ground. He looked down and saw Akutagawa using his ability.

'Akutagawa!' He thought. Soon he was on the ground. "How did you do?" Atsushi said. "Long story, don't ask. Hm? What is this?" Akutagawa asks. "Oh, that...." Atsushi looked at the Book. He was silent for a while.

"This is the most famous Book that holds our lives and, ability....." Atsushi said. "Can I? Just to hold this," Akutagawa said. Atsushi hesitated but decided to give it. "All this time it was an ordinary book, but feels differently," Akutagawa said. "And I am the heir of the book..." Atsushi said. Soon Akutagwa gave back.

"Let us go. The agency will be the safer place." Akutagawa said.

Back inside the Skull Fortress, Fyodor was looking down. "Oh, Fyodor. I feel bad for you." Shibusawa said as he came close to Fyodor. "Dazai..." Fyodor called the brunette. Dazai looked at the Russian. "Leave now. You don't want to see it." Fyodor said. "Hey, Shibusawa-san! I need cheek something! See you later!" Dazai walked away. "Hm, at least no one will listen to our talk. Right?" Shibusawa said. 

But then something went fast, and a wound appeared on Shibusawa's neck and he fell as his blood was coming out. 

"You have crossed the line." The purple Fyodor said as he walked towards the real Fyodor and was standing back to back. Then the fake one disappeared. "I have given up for the Book," Fyodor said.

Morning

Armed Detective Agency 

Atsushi was sleeping on the couch while holding the Book and his head was resting on Bram's lap. Soon Yosano came close. "Is he alright?"  She asks. "I'm not sure," Bram said as he patted Atsushi's white hair.

Then the door opened. Fukuzawa was there. "Everyone leaves, the guests need to talk," Fukuzawa said. "Atsushi and who?" Yosano said. Soon Fyodor came inside. Everyone was shocked. "C'mon," Fukuzawa said. One by one began to leave. As everyone left, Bram was still in his place. "You want to be alone?" Bram asks. "Please do one thing." Fyodor walked towards them.

Bram only lifted Atsushi's head and Fyodor was sitting in Bram's place. Then Atsushi's head was on Fyodor's lap. Bram quickly ran away. Fyodor looked at Bram closing the door, then at his son's sleeping face. There under his eyes red. 'Did he cry a lot?' Fyodor thought.
