Chapter 16

I'll miss you Atsushi... You were a good person. But I have to protect Kyouka, I can't have her repeating my past...

Ali was prepared for her fate, it didn't really matter whether or not she killed anyone. It'd basically be adding a drop of water into an ocean at this point, what did matter was that Kyouka wouldn't have to kill anyone.

She first-hand knew what it was like, knowing that the lives of hundreds of people weighed on your back. That those people had families, friends, and happy lives before they met her.

She was fine with suffering, she'd just become numb to it, and then get back onto her feet.

But the same couldn't be said for Kyouka.

Preparing to resign to her fate, Ali closed her eyes, following with the women who had taken Kyouka.

But like all things in Ali's life, even this couldn't go as planned.

"Get on the floor please!" A familiar cheerful voice cried, gathering everyone's attention.

A large unmarked white truck, was being thrown through the air, almost hitting Ali's head before she ducked down.

Am I gonna get isekaied again?! How would that work?!

Seeing Kunikida and Kenji out of the corner of her eye, Ali wasted no time and quickly used the smoke and the panic of the members of the Port Mafia.

She quickly ran towards Kyouka, sliding across the floor and bellow the strangers view, rolling back to her feet as she grabbed Kyouka by the waist and ran off into the distance.

The environment blurred together as Ali sprinted in a straight line as fast as possible, thanking her near-superhuman strength.

Once the two were far away from the Port Mafia members, Ali placed Kyouka onto the ground, checking her for any injuries.

Ali dusted off Kyouka's kimono, putting a band-aid onto her forehead once she realized there was a scratch on it. "Ok Kyouka, first we need to call the agency for help, and then we have to get to the agen-"

"I'm not going back to the agency." Kyouka said, gently taking Ali's hand and moving it away from her face.

Ali's face went blank as she stared at Kyouka, devoid of any emotion. "No. You're coming back to the agency." She stated, staying still as she stared into Kyouka's dark eyes.

"No. You, Atsushi, everyone... They all know who I really am. Just a demon who killed her parents." Kyouka said, starting to pull out her blade from her sheathe.

Shaking her head and stepping towards Kyouka, Ali's hands remained at her side. "Kyouka. You don't want to do this." She said, watching as Kyouka started to back away from her.

"You're right. But do you really think, a murderer, a demon, someone born to be in the dark, deserves to be in the light?" Kyouka asked, holding out her blade directly towards Ali's face.

"Is it bad to be greedy?" Ali asked, her hands itching to reach into her bag, yet they remained to her side.

Kyouka nodded, "It's not being about being greedy. It's getting what I deserve." She said, the light that was once in her eyes quickly fading.

Then Kyouka dropped her sword, the metal clattering onto the ground as she stepped forward to Ali, "Plus, I doubt that either of us would be able to fight, much less hurt each other... So why don't you just allow me to do what I want?" She asked, tilting her head ever, so slightly.

Ali stared to the ground, clenching her fist as she took a deep breath.

"And I doubt that you'll force me into doing anything." Kyouka said, turning around and picking up her sword, beginning to walk away.
