Yoko

Under the radar was her official status. We lost track of her actions after she killed our scouts.

Mariko was my closest friend before I came to the Port Mafia. Though, as time passed something changed inside of her. She became easily envious of others, including myself.

I was promoted as Dazai Osamu's second in command while she was with us.

After that she grew cold.

She targeted me often. Tried to sabotage my missions, even assassinated my clients.

So she was dealt with. Stripped of her position and cast out.

And now she's got her sights on me once again. I was growing tired of her games.

"What's got you so worked up?" Chuuya asked. I flicked his hat off his head and proceeded to read. Piles of paper all over my bed, descriptions, memos, reports. All concerning Mariko's gift.

Joshinki. The Goddess Chronicles. Her gift was similar to mine in a way. Both of ours alters our physical speed capability to make us virtually invisible.

But just like how mine evolves, hers does as well. Joshinki is formidable, almost impossible to escape alive.

Meaning there's little to no information on it.

"Mariko Hashioka?"

"She's got a target on my head. I want to deal with her once and for all."

"You're insane! After everything we went through to get you alive you're going to toss it away?!" He yelled grabbing my arms.

I looked him dead in the eye and smiled.

"Did you think I intended on dying so easily? Snipers are cowards anyway. That guy wouldn't have made a scratch if I was within ten feet if him." I laughed. Chuuya groaned unapprovingly.

"Akutagawa won't be happy. Especially with me for letting you go through with this."

"Don't worry Chew Toy. If there's one thing I'm good at, it's finding a needle in a haystack."

He lied back down on my couch staring at the ceiling.

"How do you plan to do this anyway?"

"I tapped her phonecall with Ryu. He's sending Kyouka-chan onto a train with a bomb. I'm going with her. If I know Mariko I know she wouldn't miss entertainment live."
