Save me from myself

Chapter 7

It had been 2 months since Dazai had really started living with the Sheep. They all seemed comfortable with his presence now and though not many people said much to him, Dazai didn't mind. He really didn't care about the sheep members very  much anyways-

Sharing a room with Chuuya was also... different to say the least. On more then one occasion Dazai had pissed him off so much that he still had faded bruises from being punched. It was his fault though, he liked teasing Chuuya too much to just stop and with the redheads hot headed personality it wasn't hard to get him mad. He did make sure not to overstep enough to make him really mad though. He knew better than to actually piss Chuuya to the max. He didn't doubt that what he had said about him being thrown outside to sleep if he was a jerk was the full truth.

Since those 2 months Dazai had started his plan and slowly inserted himself into the missions while also removing the sheep's clinginess onto Chuuya. It was quite a difficult task really- He had to make it seem like he was being genuine so they didn't become suspicious of what his real intentions were and he also had to teach them how to survive without Chuuya's help. He started off small at first. When a little conflict arose with another organization he asked Chuuya to be a lookout while other members went to fight instead. There was a bit of resistance but after reassuring them (Chuuya himself was a bit on edge about the plan) they went and won the fight easily. It not only boosted their self confidence but it also made them realize that they didn't always need Chuuya for everything.

He was quite good a manipulation so if he continued doing small things like this he could weave the Sheep off of Chuuya's presence and take him for himself. He had realized that they wouldn't be able to stay with the sheep forever so he added another part to his plan which was making Chuuya more loyal to Dazai himself then the Sheep so that when the time came for Dazai to leave, Chuuya would come with him like how a dog follows his master. It was quite an evil thought but it made Dazai very happy indeed.

Right now Dazai was waiting in the living room for Shirase and Yuan (She was another member, Dazai had seen her with Shirase the day at the arcade but he hadn't really spoken to her until recently) they had gone on a quick lookout mission because recently there had been quite a lot of rumours surrounding the Port mafia. What was being said was that the Port mafia was trying to get its hands on some... classified information. No one really knew what it was except Chuuya and himself. That information that they were after was about Arahabaki, Dazai guessed that another organization broke into Rando's house and stole files (it probably happened when his house got blown up-) and now the Port mafia wanted to get that information to lure Chuuya back to them. Mori was a smart man and he'd obviously want Chuuya in his ranks. Dazai wouldn't let that happen though. He had to keep reminding himself that the port mafia would crush him. It was hard because even after all that the port mafia had done to Dazai he couldn't shake the feeling that maybe that's where he belonged. He was a psychopathic killing machine after all. How could he live a normal life away from the underworld when that sort of lifestyle called to him?But... as long as he had Chuuya he would stay as far away from the mafia as possible.

"What's taking them so long." A younger girl asked coming up beside Dazai. She was maybe 10 or 11 years old but her eyes looked much much older. He smiled gently, he was doing his best to be soft with the members so they trusted him more. He was a charming person so he could do this well.

"They'll be ok. With the new communicators that Shirase bought they would have told us if they were in trouble. My guess is that there's a lot of information to take in." The girl stared intently at him doing her best to look as mature as possible.

"Oh alright." She said averting her eyes to the floor. Dazai could tell that she wanted to say something else but seemed to be holding back.

"Is there something else you wanted to ask." Dazai said calmly. She looked up at his eyes for a second before responding.
