A/N: I just caught up with the series yesterday, so if there's any mistakes, well, be nice? English isn't my main language either but I've drafted up the storyline for this fic. I hope you enjoy! :)

italics: words from the past


Chapter 1: Stupid Dazai

"Because Chuuya is weak, I'll always be your partner."

"What a dirty liar..."

The words escaped his lips in a mutter. He'd known him for close to a decade, yet there's only a few words that can describe him. Annoyance, traitor, dirty bandaged freak, suicidal maniac-

"Chuuya-san? "

The executive's eyes snapped open, his train of thoughts disturbed. Maybe its not a few words but rather, he had too much to say about Dazai. He blamed it on being his partner for years. That ungrateful bastard. A book was covering his face and he pulled it off by the spine before raising a brow at Higuchi.

"Um, you've been here for hours, do you need anything from the Black Lizards? "

Her eyes shifted to the plate of untouched cake and tea. The executive had surprised her, slamming the door open just hours ago and settling on the couch without a word. Maybe Chuuya just had a bad day. But she still needed to know why he was here as the superior of her group.

He ignored her, draping his dark inner coat over his shoulder as he stood.

"Foreign affairs are all taken care of so I'll be staying in Yokohama for a while."

Keeping him here in Yokohama, he wondered if the boss had planned something. Or maybe he's just worried about being an enemy of that person.

"The black lizard won't be needed for this war so I'll be handling all matters with the Armed Detective Company. "

Higuchi blinked, replying with a simple 'yes,sir'. But as the executive was about to leave, she continued to speak.

"Pardon me for saying this but you seem to really hate Dazai Osamu. "

Higuchi was only curious, afterall Akutagawa looked like he secretly respected him though there was also hatred for that man. She waited, the silence was deafening and she wondered if she'd mentioned a taboo topic. As Chuuya spoke, she swore she could almost hear a 'tsk' coming from the man.

"Of course, he betrayed us."

He betrayed him.

His brows furrowed, turning on the knob as he left for his mission. He won't let that suicidal maniac die so easily. At least not until he gave him a reason on why he abandoned him.

"Stupid Dazai..."


A/N: I'll update the next chapter next time, it'll get better. This story goes to the past and well, some developments. Reviews are very welcomed since its a new fic, I want to know what you guys think about it. :)
