3rd Person's P.O.V

Catching Tsukiyomi's limp body into his arms, Dazai crouched down onto the floor. Placing a hand on the fragile back of said female and his other hand under her knees, Dazai rest her head to his chest and picked her up. Walking towards the pillar Tsukiyomi was first placed to lean on, Dazai squatted down and placed her in the same position.

"Are you stupid or are you freaking stupid?!" Kei roared out in anger as he stomped his left foot to the ground, "That strong hit had reopened one of her more severe injuries! Look you dumbass! Blood is already seeping out from the reopened wound and staining her shirt!"

Seeing the pained look on Tsukiyomi's face, Dazai's eyes went back to its original glimmer as they softened slightly.

"Don't ignore me!" Kei glared at Dazai's back as smoke flared out from his ears like a background effect, "What's worse, she is rendered unconscious due to the pain man!"

"Hahahaha!" The laughter Chuuya let out echoed out in the large room as said male smirked. "Why Dazai. You just helped me finish a job. Now I can just take her back after catching you back to your shackles and chain you back to the wall."

Wiping away the blood that trickled down Tsukiyomi's chin with his bandaged arm, Dazai stood up. "Don't think I will let you near her anymore, Chuuya." Dazai growled out in response to his words. This caused Chuuya to shoot Dazai's figure a glare in frustration. "I can't have that." Chuuya snapped back harshly in anger.

Turning around to face Chuuya who was currently standing a few feet in front of him with an enraged expression on his face, Dazai smirked. "Let us all off, Chuuya." Dazai requested sternly, "Us all includes me, Tsukiyomi and that Kei brat."

"Hey! I'm not a brat!!" Kei retorted immediately with a scowl sent towards Dazai.

"What?! You bastard!! Like I can have that!!" Chuuya screamed back in pure rage as he took steps forward to close the distance between the both of them.

"Like I previously said, you were the one who broke my chains and freed me." Dazai started as he shoved his hands into his coat pockets. Hearing this, Chuuya immediately stopped dead in his tracks. "So, take this negotiation. Now instead of just me, I want Tsukiyomi handed back to us peacefully and the place to obtain information regarding who placed the bounties on the copycat's and weretiger's heads, in which I already since you told me before."

"What?! That's not possible! I can't take it!"

"Oh, and let Kei-kun off too since he was the one who wanted to give him back to us. He didn't do anything bad. I think I find his reasoning not that unreasonable, other than the promise of 'taking back Tsukiyomi after bringing her down the next time' thing which I do not approve of." With that said, Dazai shot Kei a glare before turning to look back at Chuuya.

"In exchange, I will make this look like someone from the Agency came to rescue me and Tsukiyomi." Dazai finished.

"... What makes you think I will believe what you say?"

"Like I said. You know me. I don't lie in these kinds of negotiations." Dazai repeated his words from before, a smile on his face.

Balling his hands into fists, Chuuya growled at Dazai for a moment as the former sent the latter a death glare of his own before he unclenched his fisted hands. Clicking his tongue in anger, Chuuya walked over to his coat and picked it up before slinging it back over his left shoulder.
