Ciyan hurried to his hometown, excitement building as he made his way to the treehouse. . He first checked the treehouse, but finding it empty,. He quickly changed back into his usual masculine clothes and darted towards the caves where the gang always gathered. The recent fight must have caused some injuries, but he had faith that his friends were tough enough to pull through. Plus, he was eager to present the letter from the king to Kidd.
Kidd's going to be blown away when he finds out I helped from behind the scenes, Ciyan thought, chuckling to himself.
As he entered the gang's cave system, he felt the familiar sense of home. He made his way to the boss's room, pushing open the door with a wide grin.
"Ladies and gents, the party animal has arrived! And trust me, I'm about to turn this gathering up a notch!" he called out playfully expecting his usual reception.
But the room was silent. Ice-cold tension hung in the air, and Ciyan quickly noticed the bruises and cuts on his friends. He tried to keep the energy up, brushing off the awkwardness.
"Hey, hey, hey! Is this how you welcome back your favorite party boy? Come on, guys, where's the warm welcome?" The silence persisted, making Ciyan uneasy.
He looked around and tried to focus. "I see you're all doing fine, just a few bruises I can heal quickly." He walked toward one of the gang members to offer healing and casually mentioned as he pull up the letter from his pokcet, "Oh, Kidd, before I forget, I've got a letter from the kin—"
Before he could finish, Kidd's fist connected with his face, sending him sprawling to the ground. The shock of the hit left Ciyan reeling; pain coursing through his head, grabbing at his now bleeding nose.
"What the hell was that for, Kidd?" Ciyan yelled, his voice dripping with confusion and anger.
"Where the fuck were you?!" Kidd roared, his fury louder than Ciyan had ever heard.
"I was—"
"Don't even start!" Kidd cut him off, fury blazing in his eyes. "Victoria's dead! We were waiting for you at the hospital, but you took your sweet ass time getting here. Where the fuck have you been? Probably whoring yourself around the castle, huh?"
The accusation hit Ciyan like a ton of bricks, but instead of showing remorse, he scoffed. "Kidd, what the fuck are you saying? You're fine, the rest of the crew looks fine, and you already wiped out most of the other gang. I'll heal the rest of the underlings tomorrow." He started healing his nose, his tone dismissive.
"Victoria's dead, Ciyan! And you couldn't even show up when she needed you!" Kidd's voice cracked as he grabbed Ciyan by the shoulders, shaking him violently. His eyes burned with grief and anger.
Kidd stared him down, waiting for some reaction. But Ciyan's face remained cold and indifferent. "I genuinely don't give a fuck about her," he said, his voice flat and emotionless.
Kidd stepped back, stunned by the sheer apathy in Ciyan's words. "You crazy son of a bitch," Kidd growled before lunging at him, , pinning him to the ground his fists swinging wildly.
Ciyan tried to block the punches, but Kidd was far stronger, his fury overpowering Ciyan's defenses. Blow after blow landed, and soon blood was streaming down Ciyan's face. It took Killer and several other gang members to pull Kidd off of him and break up the fight.
As Killer restrained Kidd, Wire and Heat helped Ciyan to his feet. Ciyan, despite being beaten and bloodied, smirked through his pain, his pride bruised but still burning. "Did you calm down, captain?" he taunted, his voice dripping with sarcasm.
"Captain?" Kidd spat, still seething. "How the hell are you even part of this crew if you're always off doing something else when we need you?"
Killer tried to ease the tension. "Come on, Kidd, we're all angry right now. Let's think this through."
But Ciyan, hurt and enraged, wouldn't back down. "Let him talk, Killer. I wouldn't want to be part of some punk's crew who puts some bitch over his bros," he snarled, barely able to stand upright.
Kidd shoved Killer aside and got up in Ciyan's face, his voice a low, dangerous growl. "You're a selfish, reckless bitch."
"Fuck you, Eustass Kidd," Ciyan spat back, blood dripping from his mouth. He wiped it with his hand and spat the remaining blood onto Kidd's chest before walking away, healing himself as he went. The cold silence returned as Ciyan's figure disappeared, leaving behind the letter sent by the king.
