who am I?

Ch. 10 Who is she?

(Izaya P.O.V.)

I leaned against the wall of the stage. I knew this time was going to be hard, but I didn't expect it to be that hard. I almost said his name, I could have ruined everything. Then, I went overboard and sang to many songs! I'm such an idiot, no one wants to hear me sing that much! They were all excited about finally leaving and continuing with their lives. I softly started banging my head against the wall when I felt a tap on my shoulder.
"Easy Izoro, fantastic performance. They loved you... Hey, that guys name is Shizuo right? The one you asked if we had an extra seat for? " The manager asked. I nodded, tilting my head in confusion. "Well, your fan girls are about ready to single him out and lynch him to death. To be honest, I would go out there and join them, but that wouldn't look good for me or you. So if you leave his backside to get lynched I'm perfectly fine with it, but unfortunately thats not how love works. I figured you'd want to know." I looked out the curtain to see about ten guys lined up and a group of girls and guys alike interrogating them. I pinched the bridge of my nose and sighed. So we're both idiots. I can't just run out to save him as Izoro, he'd be hunted the rest of his life. I quickly packed up my things and cursed him for the indignity he was forcing me into.

(Shizuo's P.O.V)

There was a great sigh as Izoro disappeared behind the curtain. A heavy hush settled over the crowd as we all came back to reality. Izoro's voice has always been that way, dreamlike. Then suddenly there was a girl who stood up on a chair ( I dont know where she got it) and clapped.
"Alright, listen up. Izoro's fanclub get to work. No one gets out until we find the ungrateful, unworthy, selfish, inhuman guy who stomped on and crushed our models poor heart!!" Shouts of "long live Izoro!" and " let's find this guy and teach him a lesson he'll never forget!" followed groups and couples as they blocked all exits. Then they started separating those of us guys that were single or were with a girl. Surprisingly there were mostly couples. Only about 25 of us were single guys. The girls came right up to me and nodded before leading me into the line of single guys. Once we were separated the girl who stood up on the chair came over and looked at us. Every couple of guys she would shake her head and that guy would be escorted out of the line. By the time she reached the end there were only about ten left, including me. I swear I heard Izaya curse somewhere, but his scent started getting farther away. I mentally growled, the flea's probably laughing at my situation. Why was I even starting to trust him in the first place? I'm an idiot! "Alright, now that your all that's left, let's evaluate you based on Izoro's requirements. First off, who's taller than Izoro?" The crazy fan announced, then escorted three people out of the line. 7 left. "Alright, someone easy to mess with..." she walked to the first guy in line "Your hairs too long, are u trying to make a statement?" The guy turned bright red, "I um, no. I just like it a little longer. It doesn't look that bad, does it?" The poor guy scratched his head nervously. "No! I love it, I totally agree with you. You look really cool with your hair a little longer. I didn't mean to embarrass you, I apologize." She said as she escorted him out. She went down until it was my turn. Everyone was starting to sweat at this point. "You. Are you in a gang or something? Why are you wearing such an odd black biker jacket?" I wanted to snap, but that means someone getting hurt. "It's a gift from my brother." I ground out through gritted teeth. "Well I love it. I think it compliments your red pants and blond hair perfectly. Your brother has great style and taste. Give him my compliments if you can please." With that she walked past me and continued on. 4 left. " Strength is up next." I sighed, hopefully I don't mess this up. "Catch!" She suddenly shouted as what looked like a purse was thrown randomly in our line. The guy panicked, but caught the strap. Unfortunately he couldn't stop it in time and it fell heavily to the concrete. He was escorted out. I was next, it didn't seem all that heavy. I caught it and walked up to her. "Here you go miss. I don't appreciate having a bag thrown at me, but you shouldn't through it at anyone else. I looks like it can do some unwanted damage." I said sweetly as I gave it to her and walked back in line. "Strong and honest too. Not to mention handsome, I think we got our guy. Thanks for the consideration though. I'll keep it in mind while I finish the test." She nodded while looking me over. No one else passed the test. 1 left. I could feel anger and hate radiating off the crowd around me in waves. I don't understand, I wouldn't just break someone's heart like that. Especially Izoro's, who ever they are, their my hero. I've also never told anyone I hated them right off the bat..... except the flea, but he doesn't count. I suddenly think back to when we were at the Flea's apartment and heard Izoro's voice. There's no way that's who Izoro is! Izoro's a sweet, kind and gentle person while the Flea is evil, cruel and all sharp edges. It just doesn't fit. I look up to see a tight circle around me. That's when I feel something hit me in the back of the head. A woman's heel. I was shocked, she just threw her heel at me!! I turn around to be hit with a rock in the face, another woman. "I didn't do anything, you got the wrong guy!! I don't hit women, and I don't want to start now!" I shout, and they pause. Until the other heel hit my head. I start to see red, but before I can I hear a girl shout "You idiot! Out of my way everyone!" I look up to find a girl with long black hair and emerald green eyes. She looks nice, could even be called cute if she didn't hold anger in those beautiful eyes. "I've been waiting for hours for you to show up!! I hate you, your the worst boyfriend ever!!" She screams, and the masses of people split in front of her. Everyone who wasn't quick enough was knocked over by her swinging bag. She looked like a charging bull, and was coming right toward me. When she was only a few steps away she burst into tears. "I thought you were hurt, or even d-dead! How could you be so cruel!!" She wailed as she finally collided with me and sobbed in my chest. I was confused, but she seemed really upset about something. I started rubbing circles onto her back, like Kasuka does for me. "Its alright. Everything's going to be fine. I'm sorry." She suddenly staggered back. "It's going to be alright, I'm sorry! Is that all you have to say for yourself?! We were supposed to go on a date tonight because I was upset I could only get 1 ticket to Izoro's show and I wanted to go with you!! I thought you sold it so we could go eat somewhere nice! I've been worried sick for 3 hours!! I tried calling and texting, but you didn't answer!!" She stepped back and threw a fit, the flame of hell in her eyes. Then, she grabbed me by the wrist and started dragging me toward the exit. We were almost there when a girl stepped out and blocked our path. "Hold on. I understand your anger, but we were about to interrogate that man. He's our only suspect in-" she was interrupted by the raging female. "We are not staying a second longer. This child- no not even a child. This overly big creature is going to make up for today's grievance in doing what I say when I say it until I feel he has proven himself to me. He is going to take me to a nice dinner and is going to give me a nice night. And until he has proven himself he will be sleeping on the couch or outside without so much as a blanket. Then and only then, can you lynch him to death, not a second earlier." She growled and spoke with such anger I was actually afraid. What ever I did to this woman, I'm going to have to pay for it ten-fold. The person that was blocking our path nodded and stepped out of the way. Soon, we were out the gates, but she didn't stop. She continued her rampage for a couple more blocks, then collapsed on a bench.
