Hey lovelies, long time no see. I decided to expand past my usual M.O (Young Justice fanfictions) and write fanfictions for other shows that absolutely adore. My first Psycho Pass story. Please remember to review. This is set a couple days after episode 11.

Chapter One: Promised Ones

Kougami groaned as he checked out of the medical unit. He was lucky that the shots weren't fatal and with the help of Shion he recovered within the week. He partially owed his speedy recovery to his own physical attributes and health. He subconsciously reached for his coat, his eyebrows furrowed as he looked around the clinic. "Shion, where's my jacket?"

The blonde woman cleaned out the used supplies and looked over her shoulder. "Hmm? Oh..." she looked down "The young woman that was killed...Yuki...She was wearing it...Ginoza had it sent to the evidence room."

Kougami looked down and clenched his fist. Dammit! How could I forget! His eyes widened. "How's Tsunemori?" What a stupid question...of course she's not ok...she witnessed her best friend get murdered and there was nothing I could do to protect her...I failed...

Shion smiled to herself. "You sound like you're actually concerned." she crossed her arms over her chest. "She's not doing well...She put on a brave face and she hasn't stop working...She hasn't even been home yet...This can't be good for her Psycho Pass...I'm worried it'll become clouded..." as she looked up Kougami ran out of the clinic.

Dammit! This is my fault. I couldn't protect her innocence. Her clear psycho pass. He ran as fast as his legs could carry him. I let him take Yuki...I let her die. He hurried down the staircase, not wanting to wait in the elevator. Once he reached the main office, he panted heavily and noticed Akane asleep on her desk. She was surrounded by case files of every crime that they solved since she's worked there and the case file from Sasayama's murder from three years ago. She looked completely worn out.

Ginoza sighed and adjusted his glasses. "She hasn't left her desk in days. She's barley eaten. Take her home." he walked toward the door.

Kougami looked over to him "I don't know where she lives."

The investigator typed something on to his wrist communicator and sent it to him. "There was a disturbance downtown, we're going to investigate. You two are still off missions until you're in better health."

"Ginoza...if you find anything on-"

"I'll let you know, but right now...save her psycho pass from being clouded..." he walked out of the office leaving the two in there. He gave him one more glance before turning the corner. He remembered being especially cruel to her that day. Blaming her if they had to kill Kougami. He was wholeheartedly willing to take out Kougami, his ex partner, his friend. If the dominator had authorized it. Heh...what's happened to me? He leaned against the hallway wall.

The enforcer looked down at his exhausted superior, and easily scooped her into his arms. He cradled her head against his chest carefully and made his way out toward the garage. He noticed the subtle bags under her eyes and frowned. It actually frightened him how little she weighed. Walking down to the garage, he placed her in the passenger seat and set the coordinates to her home address. As the autopilot took them he couldn't help but watch her. Was this all apart of his plan? Was killing Yuki the main objective? He could have killed me...I couldn't defend myself...I couldn't even reach my gun and he just left me there...But Yuki didn't do anything...why..why her? Was it just so Akane would watch? He got her away from everyone and forced her to witness something so horrible...Had anyone else of followed him they wouldn't have hesitated to kill him. Even if the dominator didn't work, he gave her an actual gun. After a few minutes the car pulled up to an apartment building. He took her into his arms again and carried her up the stairs to her apartment.

He opened the door and the hologram came to life as he was greeted by her virtual jellyfish. He walked by it and found her bedroom. It didn't seem proper for him to put her in bed like this, her clothes were filthy. She hasn't changed her clothes from that day... He looked down and gently placed her in bed, then covered her with the blanket. Regardless, he wasn't going to leave her alone. She'd been suffering alone these pass few days. I know what it was like when Sasayama got murdered. He remembered that no one was there to comfort him. Even if they tried he pushed them away, he was bent on solving the murder and allowed it to corrupt him. He sighed and sat down on the ground beside her bed. He noticed the picture frames she had on her desk. Reaching out he grabbed the one of her and a few friends. He recognized Yuki in the photo immediately. They seem so happy...

He set the photo done when he heard a soft sad voice. "Yu...Yuki...Yuki..." Akane mumbled and groaned. "Yuki...no...please stop don't hurt her..."

He got up and began to shake her away. "Tsunemori wake up." He noticed the tears streaming down her cheek. "Akane!" he yelled.

Her eyes shot open as she screamed. "Yuki!" she was disoriented. Nothing made sense anymore, she had no idea how she got home, or why Kougami was beside her. But it didn't matter. She wrapped her arms around him and cried into his shirt.

He was a bit surprised by her actions but held her close to his chest. "Shhh..." he let his hand smooth down her dark brown hair as he allowed her to cry. It felt like ages but she finally calmed down enough that she wasn't sobbing and left to take a shower. Kougami grabbed a water from the kitchen and lit his cigarette. She's been through so much...and she'll keep blaming herself... "I'll never let anything hurt her like this again...I'll be the thing that protects her psycho pass from being clouded."

Akane stood in the shower as she let the hot water wash away her worry, even temporarily. The night continued to replay in her mind, the look on Yuki's face, her last pleading look as she was taken from the world. The gun that she couldn't bring herself to kill with, and the gun that wouldn't kill. No matter what, she realized how flawed the Sibyl system was. He had a knife to her and it said that he was no harm...He killed her and it said he was no harm... According to the Sibyl Kougami was more dangerous than Makishima and that was wrong... She knealed and hugged her knees as she remembered Yuki. The last time she saw her she had to run off to work, she promised to make it up to them for leaving there lunch early. She began to tremble thinking about how they must have kidnapped her. She must have been asleep, so unsuspecting... When she woke up she must have wished that it was a nightmare...this whole thing is a nightmare... She began to sob into her knees.

Hearing her cries from outside the door Kougami put out his cigarette. "Oi, Tsunemori! Are you ok?"

She stood up quickly and wiped her tears. "I-I..." she wasn't fine, she wasn't ok. She didn't know how to respond to him. Her best friend was just murdered. How else could she be? "I'm ok..." she forced out. She washed the suds off of her body and covered herself with the towel. She changed into her yellow, frilly pajamas. She poked her head out, surprised to see dinner on the table. "Thank you..."

He shrugged "Don't thank me, your jellyfish made it." He observed her carefully, he knew she had been crying again. "Akane...I blame myself for not being able to protect Yuki...or to protect you...but blame isn't going to help anyone...The only way to help Yuki rest in peace is to find this bastard and kill him." his grey eyes narrowed, determined. Then Sasayama will rest in peace as well...

She set down her spoon. "But...the dominator won't work on him...It locked up...It said he had a crime coefficacy of zero..."

He looked up at her. "You asked me why I trained so much before, well it's so I can fight even when the dominator fails." he looked down. "I promise on their lives and every life that bastard took, we will avenge them."

"If you go beyond Sybil orders...then what'll happen to you?"

"I don't care. I'm already damned..." he smirked to himself. "I'm a monster remember, just a dog...and if you need to use your weapon on me afterward then do so, but I want you to do it...No one else."

Her eyes widened as she got up and hugged him tight. "You're not...You're not a monster..." She began to cry softly. "You're more than that, so please...don't make any rash decisions..." She looked down and cupped his cheek. "You're not my subordinate...You're my partner...so...so don't do anything foolish ok? I already lost my friend...I can't lose another..."

He looked up at her, her big brown eyes were shedding tears for him. It's been so long since anyone has shown him affection he was actually beginning to forget that he was human. I'm her partner...? her friend...Someone still has faith in me... His eyes softened as he caressed her cheek and leaned up to kiss her deeply. Her lips were warm, and soft from crying so much.

He could feel her resistance, she pulled back and covered her lips shyly. "K-Kougami..." she whispered. Her pale cheeks were covered in a soft red. She backed up against her wall as she looked down, embarrassed.

He stepped forward, cornering her. "Are you afraid?"

She shook her head slowly. "I-I'm not afraid..."

He caught her chin and made her look up at him, he grinned and kissed her deeply. This time he allowed for his tongue to push past her sweet lips. She allowed him to taste her as she wrapped her arms around his neck, and instinctively his arms around her tiny waist. He knew that her psycho pass must be clouded with the recent events. A part of him was hoping that this would relieve some stress, and the other part of him couldn't resist himself. He smiled feeling her push back into the kiss. Maybe it was cruel but he needed her to be distracted, because at any given moment alone she was going to recall Yuki's murder, and he didn't want her to relive. Even if it was for one night he was going to help her forget. His hands moved down from her waist, to her hips, then down to her bottom as he scooped her up.

She let out a soft yelp as he carried her back to her bed and crawled over her. He gave her a calm smile as she looked away embarrassed. "Kougami...I never..."

He leaned down and pecked her neck. He allowed his nose to brush against her skin as he laughed to himself. Of course she's a virgin...I guess that would also contribute to her crystal clear psycho pass. "It's ok...we don't have to..." he looked up at her.

She blushed harder and pulled him closer, her fingers began to unbutton his top. She shyly trembled as he watched surprised. Once she got his shirt open she looked up at him. "Don't go..."

He shook his head and took her small hand into his. "I won't go anywhere...and we don't have to do anything...if you don't want to..."

"I want to..." she urged, gazing up at him.

He leaned down and pecked her nose "Alright, then we can...I'll be right back..." he gave her a smile and walked into the living room, putting the food away. He turned off the lights around the house, and locked the door. Once he finally made it back to her room she was sound asleep. He smirked and crossed his arms over his chest and watched her. Heh...well at least she'll get some sleep. He walked over to the bed and crawled behind her, he wrapped his arms around her waist, and pulled her against his warm chest. He placed a kiss on her shoulder before closing his eyes. To think that I can protect something so delicate, so fragile...so beautiful...Maybe the evil in me can be amended... It was the easiest he's slept in the last three years. He knew he still had to avenge Sasayama, but it's the first time in ages that he hasn't felt alone. The first time that he felt there was more to his future other than vengeance.

As morning rolled in Akane found herself in Kougami's strong arms, she cuddled against his chest. She blushed heavily looking up at him. He looked so peaceful sleeping she couldn't help but feel calm, she caressed his jawline before pressing her lips against his neck shyly. She blushed more as she looked at her clothes. D-Did we...? But I don't remember...I don't feel any differently and my clothes are still on. She touched her lip and gasped. It was still sore from his kisses.

He smiled feeling her warmth and slowly woke up. He looked down at her, catching her blush. "Morning." he grinned.

"G-Good morning...Kougami.." she looked down. "Umm...did we...?"

He leaned up on his arm and took in her embarrassed face. "Heh. No." he leaned closer toward her. "You fell asleep, but I guess it can't be helped when you don't sleep all week." He sat up and moved to the edge of her bed.

Her blush increased as she covered her cheeks with her blanket. "O-Oh...I see..." I fell asleep? I can't believe I fell asleep! Wait...did I really want to...after everything that's happened is it really ok...?

He grabbed a towel and leaned on the door frame. "It's ok you know...living...it's alright to live...Yuki was your best friend...I'm sure she'd want you to keep living...Don't stop your life because someone ended hers" Live on for her... "I'm going to shower" he walked out of her room, allowing his words to linger in the air.

She hugged her knees remembering Yuki. Every smile, every laugh, every moment they shared. I'll live on for you Yuki...I'll keep going until I find Makishima...then we'll avenge you and you can rest in peace...Kougami and I...we'll do it together...
