Rokudo Mukuro

The Lion & The Mouse

It was finally the end of your [sport of your choice] practice and you were walking home after a rough day. You were tired and had to drag yourself to get to your home in one piece. Tucking a hair behind your ear, you started to daydream. You could hear the laughter that is coming from your parents' mouth, while your siblings whine to them about school. How much you crave your mother's savory meal she has prepared for all of you to enjoy.

With that thought in mind, you immediately dashed to the direction of your house. You didn't notice a delinquent person in front of you and bumped into them. You fell on your butt from the impact while the other person didn't even flinch. He looked at you with his scary-looking face before smirking.

"Where'd 'ya off to, lil' mouse?" He gave you a malicious grin before trying to grab your hand. You pushed it away before quickly standing up and dusting off your skirt. You gave him a small bow and apologized before walking to your home. After about two steps, someone grabbed your hand tightly and forcefully turned you to face them.

"T'was not nice to ignore someone older than you, y'know?" He then dragged you with him in an alley and pinned you on the wall. You tried fighting back but he grabbed your shoulders and pushed you to the wall roughly. Your back hurt from the impact and your eyesight was now blurry because of the tears that were forming in your eyes.

"I'll cut your pretty face if you make a sound. Now be a good girl." He showed you his knife and placed it on your right cheek. You tightly shut your eyes when he started unbuttoning your shirt. You were trying hard not to sob loudly so you wouldn't catch any bystander's attention. He was about to kiss you when a hand grabbed his shoulder and pushed him off of you.

You immediately fixed your button and looked ahead of you. A teenage boy with blue hair formed in a peculiar style was now in front of you and looking down at the delinquent. You were shocked because the boy was now screaming and gripping his head.

"Stop! Help me! Please, make it stop." The boy with blue hair turned to you and smiled warmly. A part of his hair was covering his right eye, but his left eye was clear for you to see. You were speechless when you saw how captivating his blue eyes were. It was so beautiful yet hold so much hatred.

You could feel the hair on your neck stood up even if he looked at you nicely. "Are you okay? You should get going now. We don't want your parents worrying for you." You nodded and grabbed your bag from the ground. You bowed and thanked him before walking away.

You glanced back at him and saw that he was intently looking at you. You yelped slightly which caused him to chuckle. "May I know your name?"

"Rokudo Mukuro."

"Thank you for saving me, Mukuro-san. You're a nice guy."

You cower in fear when he suddenly grabbed you. He looked at you with an unreadable expression before placing his index finger on your chin and pulling it upward. You were now looking at him directly and could see his right eye. It was color red. "You are too nice for this world, ____. You should be more careful or else people would take your kindness as an advantage for them to use you."

You wiggled yourself away from him before facing him, "I promise to help you in any way I can to repay your kindness. Excuse me." You bowed once more before scurrying on your feet. You could faintly hear his sigh before turning to your street.

"How can a little mouse like you help me? Foolish girl." Mukuro then turned to the delinquent that was on the floor before grinning devilishly. 

It was a week after that incident you were involved in. You were now more alert to your surroundings and have been taking martial art classes. It was hard balancing your studies, [sports of your choice], and [martial art of your choice] but you were not fond of experiencing that incident once again. Your senpai, Sasagawa Ryohei, is helping you throughout your training and is always encouraging you.
