It was an ordinary day for Hoshitani Yuta. However, he ended up in a pretty unsightly situation.
While walking home from school, he noticed that he was being followed, so he ran into an alley. Turning around, he faced his stalkers, ready for a fight. The men following him rushed him, grabbing his arms, restraining him, then one of them put a cloth, full of chloroform, to his face. After inhaling and struggling for a bit, Hoshitani passed out, the men carrying him away.

Meanwhile, Otori Itsuki, wearing black with a burgundy red shirt and dog tag around his neck, was assigned to a mission. He was to eliminate an unsightly group of people from existence. Accepting the mission, he went off, jumping from roof to roof.

When Hoshitani woke up, he was still a bit dazed. He was on a bed, moonlight shining from the window. Eyes widening, he sits up, only to see a figure approach him, another figure turning on the light. Shutting his eyes from the sudden brightness, Hoshitani hears footsteps and feels a weight on the bed. Opening his eyes again, he sees a man, who he assumes, is the leader of the men who kidnapped him. The man smiles at him, Hoshitani glaring back in response.
"Who are you? Where am I? Why did you kidnap me?" Hoshitani asks the man as he glares at him. The man chuckled, "You don't need to know that. As for why, well..." The man pushes Hoshitani down on the bed by his arms, facing him head on, holding him down with one hand on his wrists. Hoshitani, who's underneath him, tries to struggle out of his tight grip but to no avail. Then, the man reaches for something from the nightstand. Hoshitani's eyes widened in fear as the man gets out a needle with a suspicious liquid inside. Hoshitani knew where this was going, so he struggles harder, trying to escape. The man just laughs.
"By the way, I located your house earlier...and I ordered my men to blow it sky high. There were no survivors, so you should just- Ow!" The man recoils as Hoshitani headbutted him. Hoshitani, hating the man who made him lose everything, grabbed a gun, which was conveniently left on the nightstand, and shot him, blood staining the floor. Then, he escaped the room.

On the roof was Otori, as he heard multiple gun shots, went inside the building. There, he sees a very surprising sight. Half of the group he was supposed to eliminate was dead, a boy with a gun still shooting them down one by one. Otori noticed the murderous glint in his eyes, the eyes of a predator. During the commotion, they establish eye contact for a brief moment, when Otori noticed a man trying to shoot the boy from behind, so he shot him. The boy blinks, then continues shooting them all down, Otori helping him out.
Once all the enemies were dead. they turned to each other, staring into each other's eyes, the murderous glint disappearing.
Otori asks, "Do you have anywhere to go?" The boy shakes his head. "I see...then, do you want to come with me?" Otori asks, smile on his face while holding his hand out to the boy. Blinking in surprise, the boy smiles and takes the other's hand.
The boys asks, "What's your name? I'm Hoshitani Yuta." Otori answers, "Otori Itsuki."
Then, they both climbed up to the roof. Otori picks up Hoshitani bridal style, Hoshitani hanging on tight, and expertly jumps from rooftop to rooftop. As they go, Hoshitani looks at Otori. 'He looks beautiful in the moonlight. Wait, what?!' Blushing, Hoshitani hangs onto Otori just a bit tighter, hoping that he doesn't notice him blushing.
Once at their destination, Otori's hideout, which is actually an apartment on the top floor, Otori put Hoshitani down on a bed as he noticed that Hoshitani already fell asleep. He watches him for a minute. 'He's rather cute. No wonder he got himself kidnapped.' Sighing, Otori brushes Hoshitani's hair back. 'I bet Hiragi's going to be pretty mad at me for bringing in a stray. Oh well. He's my responsibility anyway. Still...that look in his eyes as he took those guys down... It was like he had the eyes of a wolf. It was super hot. Wait, what?!' Otori shakes his head, then smiles. 'He may be a great asset. I'll train him myself if I have to, which I probably will.' Then, Otori finally lays down next to Hoshitani, and falls asleep.

The next morning, Otori wakes up to find Hoshitani snuggled up to him. 'He's like a dog.' Smiling, he gets up to make breakfast. Once Hoshitani smells bacon sizzling, he wakes up, rushing towards the smell, an imaginary tail wagging. 'Yup. Definitely like a dog.' Otori smiles at him, and serves breakfast.
After breakfast, Otori says, "OK. We'll be training today." Hoshitani nods.
They both go the shooting range that's secretly attached to the building. Otori gives him some earplugs and a gun, then sets up the targets. Then, he demonstrates by shooting the targets, hitting the bull's eye perfectly, five out of five times. Hoshitani tries too, and he hits the bull's eye three out of five times. "That's OK. You'll get better with practice." Hoshitani nods, not wanting to disappoint him, and he practices some more, Otori overseeing him.
They stop for lunch, which was great. After that, they spar, Otori teaching him some self-defense moves. Hoshitani pants, tired from the long day. Otori smiles, calling it a day, and they order take-out for dinner.

After dinner, they talk for awhile about how it's going to be from now on.
"I'm part of the Ayanagi Familia. It's one of the major ones in this area. As for ground rules... You are to do your share of the chores, not mention the Mafia to any civilians or be silenced forever, and you are not to shoot any innocent civilians either. Got it?" Hoshitani nods, understanding the danger he's put himself in, not like he has a choice though.
"As for the Familia itself, I'll introduce you when I give my report, but you need to know about some people. Sazanami and Yuzuriha are close friends of mine as well as subordinates. They are to be trusted. Next is Tsukigami-senpai. He's the one who taught us how to fight, but is quite busy with his cover, so we probably won't be seeing him much."
Otori sighs, "Then, there's Akatsuki and Hiragi. Hiragi is the heir-to-be as well as my twin brother. He may be serious but he's really caring once you get to know him. Although, he may get cranky from time to time due to paperwork, so watch out. As for Akatsuki, he's Hiragi's bodyguard...and he hates me to the core. I try my best to stay away from him and his assassination attempts on me though. Unfortunately, that means not seeing Hiragi in person very often, but we text each other."
Hoshitani asks, "Don't you get lonely though?" Otori smiles, "Of course, but what can I do about a bodyguard/assassin who downright hates me...and am unfortunately not allowed to kill? As for the current head of the Familia...he's my grandfather. Whether you get in or not depends on his, or Hiragi's approval." Hoshitani nods, "I understand."
"OK! Enough about work! What did you do before all this happened?" Otori asks. Hoshitani answers, a lonely smile on his face, "It was pretty normal, actually. My parents were great, I was allowed to roam as I pleased as long as I got home before dinner, and I made friends with pretty much everyone. Oh! And, I was number one in running!" Otori nods, feeling a bit sorry that he ended up in this situation as well as noticing that Hoshitani's just as lonely as he is.
"About the people we took down last night... they were a group I was supposed to eliminate, but you apparently beat me too it," Otori smiles. "Ah. That. Honestly... after hearing about what they did and almost did to me, I shot them all out of anger." Otori nods, "Understandable, but even so, you'll be a great asset to us. We're low on recruits. Of course, it's not for free though. We'll provide housing and food in exchange for your services." Hoshitani scoffs, "Well, it's not like I have a choice. At least it's better than living on the streets."
Laying down on the bed, Hoshitani grabs Otori by the hand, dragging him down, falling asleep as he snuggles into him again. Otori blinks at him, then smiles, laughing a bit, running a hand through his soft hair. Otori falls asleep too, hoping that Hoshitani will be well received by the others. Even if he has to threaten them to do it.
