"I'll come next week. To see how you're recovering" Ivan hugs you. He is about to leave Ikebukuro.

"Ahh~ I'll be fine. Go, we will soon see eachother. Give me a call when you're home" closer you press him by yourself. He has been her for a while, it's time to leave. There must be so much work done...Your brother left and you're on your way home. You already managed to settle some plans with your people. In expectations you're waiting. Soon someone is about to die.

"[f/n]!" a blond guy waves to you.

"Its me! K.." he looks familiar, it feels familiar...Oh!

"Kida!" his smile widens. You remembered his name. How could you not to?

"Oh! you remember!" without thinking you embrace him.

"oh you're going to make me blush" he rocks a bit, making some weird noises. Loudly you laugh as he puts his hand over your shoulder.

"Soo~ what you're up to?" curiously he rolls eyes, keeping you a company.

"I'm on my way home. From work you know"

"Sounds boring~. Than you can come with me" He begins to guide you not really giving you other chance than follow.

"Oh! What about those numbers that you gave me?"

"Do you remember...?" what is he talking about?

"No..?" not taking him completly serious.

"Well" closely he leans.

"you gave me some numbers. By it's lenght I belive it's connected with account?" that takes your attention. An account?

"numbers?" for a moment you think...

"I'll call you later" you'll know when you'll heard numbers, probably. Or at least by it's lenght.

"Deal~" with wide smile he lets go of you expanding his arms.

"Oh Celty!" Kida speeds in front towards woman dressed in biker outfit and cat helmet? Beside her is standing a bartender? Shizuo? You follow him joining the group.

Woman embraces you.

I knew you'll be fine!!

Strange. Why is she typing on her phone? And what's up with this bartender? It seems he would rather be anywhere else than here.

Clumsily you glance Kidas way, leaning closer to him.

"Who are these people?" Kida bursts out laughing. With force you smash his head.

"Hey!!" he rubs hurt area, still giggling...

What do you mean!?

"Well...the thing is..that.."

"she lost her memories!" again with force smashing him.

"Do you have to?" annoyed you pull lips back, why does he have to be like this...

"Indeed, I lost my memory"

WHAT!? she turns bartenders  way. He seems surprisingly calm for this situation.

You don't remember...us...?

"No...I don't" how could you forget these people? They sure seem to stand out from the crowd.

"I was surprised too! You don't remember Shizuo? Nor Celty?" Kida hangs on each side of their shoulders. Bartender annoyed slaps Kidas hand away.

"I though you'll remember something after seeing them" Kida slightly shakes head, it seems he planned to bring you here, to meet this people.

"You're Shizuo?" without hesitation you look at bartender. He seems extremely calm, hint of irritation is in his gaze, hint of annoyance in his expression.

"Yes. I'm glad you're alright" coldly he notes, lighting up a cigarette. A bit shocked you nod, what's up with this cold attitude? Isn't he the main reason that you ended up like this? Unintentionally you glare at him. For a moment silent intention builds up between you two.

"Well!.. heh...[f/n] I wanted to show  you som..." Kida gives his best to break the bad mood, but you interrupt him.

"What happened?" upset you approach Shizuo, which with agitated tone mumbles something, raising brow.

Hey!! What's up with that? Celty involves, but gets ignored by everyone. Why is she typing on phone instead of talking?

"what happened that day?" hungry for knowledge you aggressively attack him. Everything that happens is him hiding his arms in pockets. Since he only twitchs his lips you continue.

"when I got hurt?" something doesn't fits in! Shizuo must know what happened. Details!

"You got hurt" carefree he expires smoke, ignoring it. What kind of answer is that?

"How? Why?" again you try to get something out of him. You can see how Kidas smile faded, how is Celty carefully listening.

"You jumped out of no where" with monotone tone he mentions. He seems reluctant to discuss the matter.

"who were you targeting?" annoyed he grits his teeth, throwing cigarette away. Such a sudden change.

[f/n] c'mon calm! Celty jumps between shaking her hands to stop you.

"Hey, hey no need for this" Kida involves with wide smile, he's making an obvious effort to hide his uneasiness.

"Who!" Yelling. Losing it. What is going on!?

".." nothing...

"What are you hidding from me?!" blood begins to pound in your head. Anger shakes your body. Again you shake, until you let go of it.

You regreat that you got hurt instead of me?  

"It has something to do with Izaya!?" Why did their expression change?

"[f/n] calm down!" Kida nervously raises his voice, quickly smiling. How fake!

"No!!" without control harshly grabing Shizuos vest pulling yourself closer, until his eyes meet yours.

"You promised! You promised! How could you!!" shocked he opens his mouth. All anger that he was holding inside blended away, it flew and converted in other kind of emotion. He noticed tears in your eyes. Disappointment.

Stop it!!! A sudden tug back. Celty and Kida pull you apart; away from him. You glance at Kida; he's shocked, surprised at your unusual behavior. You glance at Celty she's typing something.

What is this all about?! Blankly you gaze at Shizuo. Pure shock. Like he recognised the meaning of words which even you don't understand. Such dull emotions. Now you realise. Anger. Disappointment. Sorrow. Grudge. At once you turn around. For a second showing them your back. Walk away. Just leave.

"[f/n]! Wait!" confused you ignore Kida, luckily something holds him back, giving you a chance to escape. What just happened? What were those emotions against Shizuo?

"huh?" someone runs into you. What's this? People are massively gathering in your ally. Noise of sirens is loudly echoing, screaming of people is accompanying it. There! Isn't that your sections of homes? Lights. A fire?! Wait?!

No!

No!

No! No! No!

Is that your home?

Why is it drowning in flames....
