When things don't go as predicted. SHIZAYA. FemIzaya. Rated M for later chapters.
The female informant already knows why she, and everyone else (including shizu-chan, whom she hates) is here. Shinra and Celty are announcing their engagement, but it's supposed to be a surprise, and she's not suppose to know about it. She's already contemplated ruining the surprise, and watching her precious humans reactions, but Shinra is one of the few people (if not the only person) she can actually call her friend, plus Celty could and most likely would kick her ass. So instead of being a bitch, she just sits and sips on her gin and tonic. The party is in a private room in the back of a fairly nice bar/club, in the district in between Ikebukeru and Shinjuku. And of all the people there kanra has been seated directly across the (long but thin) table, from shizuo, who is trying his hardest not to ruin the night for shinra and celty by flipping the table at kanra, and kanra doing the same by not intentionally pissing him off. Finally, shinra stands up and taps on his knife against his glass for everyones attention, everyone who wasn't before becomes silent.
"Thank you all so much for coming, you may not be aware of this... well you shouldn't be at least, because it's supposed to be a surprise and..." Shinra starts rambling for a while but then gets to the point that celty and him are getting married, and this is actually an engagement party. Then he looks to shizuo and asks him to be his best man.
"I believe the term you were looking for is 'best monster'". Kanra mumbles to herself and takes a large swig of her magical concoction( that is making this event bearable), before ordering something with a lot of vodka in it.
"what was that? Flea?" Shizuo growls at her.
"...what?" kanra pretends like she doesn't know what he's talking about. Her new drink appears and right as she takes a large drink, shinra continues talking. "And celty would like to ask kanra to be her maid of honor." Kanra chokes in surprise, getting vodka in her nose. "What?" kanra tries to smile politely.
" [Is that a yes]" celty, who is sitting in between shinra and shizuo, holds her phone up to kanra.
"of coarse." kanra can't help but smirk when she realizes why celty has chosen her. Out of all the girls there (which only consists of Erika, and herself really) she has the most money and resources, not to mention the best organization skills " celty may not be human, but she sure is selfish like one." kanra thinks to herself as she takes another large drink and regrets what she just agreed to.
"are you sure that's a good idea?" shizuo tries to make a witty remark." She may try to sabotage your wedding." He laughs at his own joke (something he usually wouldn't do, but the alcohol he's consumed is telling him to do so).
"Haha, keep laughing shizu-chan, I'll just keep putting eye-drops in your So-Co." kanra laughs like she wasn't 100% serious.
Shinra orders shizuo a fresh drink and takes away his old one ( knowing that eye-drops mixed with dark liquors creates a pretty potent poison), while shizuo glares at kanra.
Celty holds her phone up to kanra. "[I really want us to be good friends kanra, we've always been on bad terms and I really want that to change.]"
" Always looking for a better future." kanra says warmly, again with a fake smile raising her glass to her then drinks.
The rest of the night goes by rather quick due to the fact that kanra is completely drunk after two drinks. However in her drunken state of mind she thinks it's necessary for her ( a 100 pound female) to keep up with shizuo ( A 6.4 ,200 pound man, who is made completely of muscle) with how much alcohol he consumes. Which turns out to be a horrible, horrible, idea, because she ends up inadvertently inviting celty to her apartment to start planning for the wedding and so on, then she says something pretty venomous torwards shizu-chan. And as she gets up to start running, she mockingly winks at, and blows a kiss to shizuo. To which, even though Tom-san tries to calm him down, shizuo actually does flip the table, and promptly chases after kanra in a blind rage.
At this point kanra is barefoot (cause high-heels would slow her down considerably) running through the streets of the city she LOVES. Her head is spinning, and her lungs are burning, and she couldn't feel happier. In moments like this she feels like the entire city, if not he entire world, is at her feet. She can even bend her favorite monster (who usually never does what she tries to manipulate him into doing) to her will. She truly loves this game of cat and mouse they play, She loves her life. In this moment Everything is perfect.
She looks behind her to make sure, and sure enough shizu-chan is still following close behind. Then right as she turns forward to see her apartment (which means safety) right across the street, she missteps off the curb, rolling her ankle, and falling to the ground roughly, scrapping both her knees.
She finds herself in the middle of the street, unable to get up ( because of her ankle). She has shizu-chan, chasing her from one direction, and just when she thinks things can't get worse, she turns to see a city bus just seconds away from hitting her.
What should be mere seconds takes much longer. It feels like minutes even hours of just sitting there and thinking. She thinks about how drastic this turn of events have been, she literally went from feeling like a god, to being sprawled out in front of a city bus just waiting to die, she can't help but laugh at he irony.
"at least shizu-chan won't get the pleasure of knowing he killed me..." She thinks as she closes her eyes, and waits for the skull shattering impact of metal and pavement.
