I don't have fears.

I am not a person who would get scared. Nothing scares me. Death doesn't scare me, because death can't come near me. Why should I be scared? Bugs don't scare me. It's like stopping on a cell phone. Gangs. Height. The dark. Nothing!

Except for one thing.

Thunder storms.

Why? I don't know. That is still a mystery to me. Maybe it's my fucked up childhood past. Just remembering when I was home alone a thunderstorm hit my parent's home and I just couldn't stop shaking. I was so terrified. I am 23 and I am still scared of them. It gets me on my nerves that I can't face this fear. Imagine anyone finding about this stupid weakness of mine. Especially from me! Ha! If Shizuo wouldn't bring this down if he found out. Shinra doesn't even know. That bastard of a fake doctor would never shut up about it. This weakness should never be found out.

After storms like that, I always go and find Shizuo. To help me know that I am not scared of nothing and I am the only person who can face the monster that everyone fears.

"Ah, but Shizu-chan. All I am doing is walking by" I put on my smug look again.

"Walking on my turf that is!" He screams at me and gets ready to throw a sign at me.

I turn away from him and wave my arms around, "Nothing is your turf Shizu-chan." I start to walk away.

"Stop calling me that you bastard!" I hear the throw of the sign. I moved to the side and twirl around to look at him. I strike my flick blade out and point it at him. I was about to give him remark, but then I felt a rain drop fall on my face. The news did say there was going to be another nasty storm tonight. Even if there isn't, I am not taking any chances.

I laugh at him. "I got to be going Shizu-chan" it starts to rain. "I will chat with you later." I wink at him and start running away.

"Izaya!" I hear him pick up another object. I turn around, but I don't stop running. I wasn't surprise that it was a vending machine. I chuckle and got away from the throw.

Making it to my place before the storm got nastier. I take my jacket off and throw it on the couch and rush to my computer and my iPod. I had to actually get an iPod so I don't listen to the storm. What a waste of money.

I make tea while listening to the music. While I wait for the water to boil, I make my way to the computer to find some more juicy info. When I got comfy in my chair, I feel my phone vibrate in my pocket. I pause my music, and check the screen. Shiki was calling.

"Miss me already?" I tease.

"I need you to get a file for me." He says right away.

"Now why do I have to" I lean in my chair "can't you get your boys to get it?"

"Because this guy is no good and—"

"And you are working with him?" I chuckle and tease him some more, knowing he will get irritated.

I hear him sigh. "The file he is going to give you is most likely not all the info I need. So-"

"So you want me to get more info out of him while he gives me the file."

"Right. You will know what to get from him when you see the file. Give me the file tomorrow. I will text you the address and then you can go do the job."

"Wait! Right now?"

"Of course! Is there something wrong about that?" I hear him getting mad.

I relax and clear my smug voice. "I am not going in that weather. Besides, the file will get wet."

"Bring a bag, now go!" He hangs up.

"Dammit!" I snap my phone shut. Worst possible moment! I let out a heavy sigh and run my fingers through my hair. Just got to face it and get this over with.

I get up and turn off the stove and grabbed everything I needed. I look out the window.

Doesn't look like it will thunder anytime soon.

I quickly put my jacket on and leave my empty room.

What a waste of time! The fucker didn't have any info. He looked like he put all the info in the file that he had to! And now that it is already late. I don't think I can find a taxi to make it home. Don't get me wrong! I rather walk in Ikebukuro, but that rain is strong and loud, that my music can't even block it out. I put my hood on and start walking fast back home.

And then I heard it.

The loud noise made me jump and shake. I look around hoping no one saw me jump. It didn't look like anyone notice. There weren't even that much people out this late.

Another thunder.

I start to shake harder and decided to rush to an ally. Why? I don't even know myself. Every time I hear a thunder storm, I find some dark place and tried to block out the sound.

I lean against the wall and cover my ears. But it wasn't helping. I can still hear the thunder. The loud shaking thunder!

I fell to the floor. Trying so hard to block out the sound. But again, I never can. I close my eyes shut tight, hoping this will blow out soon.

It was late, and I have no jacket in this damn rain! I can't even have a smoke because it is raining so much.

But speaking of jackets. I see a familiar one in front of me! My blood starts to boil.

A thunder strikes and to my surprise. I see him jump. He looks around. Another thunder strikes, freezes and looks around fast. He starts to run into an ally.

I am not letting him go without a bruise on him!

I run after the louse, pushing people out of my way. Some moved away on their own, scared to even go near me.

When I make it to the ally, I saw something that I thought I wouldn't ever see.

I see Izaya, curled up, covering his ears, eyes close tight, and shaken up. He looked like a little kid who is scared.

This must be some kind of a joke! He must be planning something like always! But, it doesn't look like he even notice I'm right here.

Another thunder.

He jumps and shakes some more.

Is he…afraid of the thunder?
