"Dazai never would have treated me like this!" I screamed at the drunken Chuuya. My words only seemed to make him even more mad. He got up from his seat at the table and marched over to me.

"No, stop! Leave me alone!" I yelled at him but he only quickened his pace.

"A sirens-"

I couldn't even activate my ability. Chuuya pushed me up against the wall. His hand over my mouth. "Don't you ever try and use your ability on me again. Do you understand?" His voice was dark and serious. A tear dropped down my face and I nodded my head.

Chuuya's hand went from my mouth to loosely around my thoat. "Say it. I want you to say it Nyx." He said.

"I understand." I spoke weakly. His grip tightened around my thoat. "Fully." He said again.

"I understand, I will never try to use my ability on you ever again." I gasped out. He let me go and I fell to the ground coughing and gasping for air.

Chuuya started walking away back to his wine 2 wine bottle. "Dazai would never do this to me... I wish we could just break up." I muttered silently to myself. Chuuya, apparently has superhuman hearing and shot a glare at me.

I quickly got up and ran to the bathroom. I locked the door behind me. I could hear heavy footsteps outside the bathroom. I knew he activated his ability. I looked around quickly but sadly there was no windows in here.

Chuuya was physically stronger than me plus with his ability on it was worse. I couldn't even fight back without my ability at this point but I knew if I did it was just going to be so much worse.

Before I could plan anything out the door was kicked open and in cane an angry Chuuya. He was standing in the doorway. Hands in his pockets. On instinct I ran at him and when he went to grab me I ducked under his legs and ran.

At first I was running for the door but Chuuya beat me there. He grabbed me and threw me back into the middle of the room. I landed right on my leg, the impact broke my ankle.

I got up and limped over to the balcony. I could hear Chuuya's footsteps behind me. Not being able to stand on my ankle anymore I collapsed right in the door way. I quickly crawled underneath the couch out there but threw something off the balcony to make it seemed like I jumped.

I peered our from underneath the couch and watched Chuuya run to the edge of the railing. He leaned over and looked around. Not before long he took off back into the house and I could hear him leaving.

I quickly pulled out my phone and dial Mori's number.

(Italics is Mori, normal is Nyx)

"Hello?"

"Mori... I need your help."

"What's the matter, Nyx?"

"I need you to please hurry up to Chuuya's apartment. If he's in there tell him you need to go check something on the balcony. When you get out there look under the couch."

"But why do-"

The door opened.

"He's back! I gotta go."

I hung up the phone and waited. I waited for what seemed like forever until finally I heard Mori's voice from inside. "Chuuya? What's going on? Why do you look so panicked?" He asked the orange haired boy. "I think Nyx jumped off the balcony, I went to go check outside but I couldn't find her." Chuuya explained, clearly he was sobering up.

Mori made his way out to the balcony and not before long his face appeared under the couch. "Nyx? What's going on?" He asked me, grabbing my hand and pulling me out.
