*+:。.。 。.。:+*

(TW: depictions of a gunshot and blood, and a sketch I made last night of them bc I was bored)

1.

Shinichiro has been thinking all over again, how in the world can he turn into a criminal? Probably he has been corrupted? By whom? How? Or maybe he's been manipulated? By Kisaki? But he doesn't know who that is.

Guess he took the 'I woke up and chose violence' too literally.

And little did he know that Wakasa and Takeomi know everything that happened. They chose not to tell him though, it'll ruin him completely.

"Don't," Wakasa said, cutting off Takeomi.

"But he needs to know!" Takeomi raised his voice. "You know-"

"Just, no," Wakasa's lilac orbs glinted as he glared at his friend. Takeomi sighed and took a puff from his cigarette.

Shinichiro heard their conversation and it sparked more curiosity in him. So, he did his own research, with the help of his secretary, Kokonoi. Of course, he also asked how Inui was doing and every time he mentioned the blonde's name, the white-haired man had his ears and cheeks red. According to Kokonoi, Bonten was established in 2015, and it gained its power by eliminating other large criminal organizations, and it became the most untouchable organization in Japan. Shinichiro's eyes opened wide when the latter said he ordered to kill everyone who betrays him. Oh, he wouldn't do that. Even the thought of murdering another life run chills down his spine. Of course, Kokonoi questioned such actions Shinichiro has been doing these past few days, asking for all criminal records of the gang, all members involved, and all executives working under him. He didn't voice it though, because anyone who asks absurd questions would get killed in an instant.

Shinichiro wasn't Shinichiro anymore.

Every night, he had dreams, or nightmares as he could describe, run across his mind, maybe giving a glimpse of what he did in the past two years. It was horrifying.

The dream he's having right now is probably the same as the others, like there's a formula every episode. One dies, or a few people die. And a pink-haired man kills them in an instant with a bang.

...

A man in a purple vest and the same material slacks, a pink tie wrapped around under his collar opened his mouth and dropped two pills in his mouth, swallowing it down hard. His bangs hid his eyes as he looked down, two diamond-shaped scars has been drawn by the corner of his lips. He bent down by one guy, bloody and bruised with a gag in his mouth. He put his finger by his mouth and shushed his grunts, then stood up and walked a few steps away. The man turned to them and took out his gun. His eyes were effervescent blue, like the placid ocean wafting with the breeze. Akashi Haruchiyo, or Sanzu Haruchiyo, had not a single emotion painted on his pale face, blue orbs wide in excitement.

A man with hair slicked to the back, ash-blonde highlights at the side, entered the room, with a man with white hair and the Bonten tattoo coloured in one part of his hair, walking behind him.

"Some traitors?" the older man asked, removing the cigarette from his mouth. The man with white hair walked past him and went towards the rail, a few meters away from two men who look similar to one another.

"Yeah, Mikey caught them when they were having a conversation outside his office," The man with blue highlights and purple streaks coloured in his mullet cut leaned forward on the silver rails, a bored expression written all over his features. The man beside him, hair slicked on the side, coloured with the same purple dye but the blue highlights exchanged for magenta streaks, just looked below with a smile on his face. "They just had a meeting then."

"Bet Sanzu's gonna go crazy in shooting them," The older sibling said. "He took two pills in one swallow."

"I should tell my brother to at least limit the drug intake," The man with a large scar drawn over his right eye sighed.

"Seems impossible, though," The white man scoffed with a smirk. "Where's the boss anyway?"

"Mikey's here," Rindou pointed at the man with grey hair, turned away from the scene and seated by one of the wooden boxes by the room. He was eating what it seems to be taiyaki. "So boss may be here any minute."

"Mikey!" Sanzu turned his head to dart at his boss. "Should I kill them?"

"Wait for my brother," he answered. "He knows what to do with them."

"Boy, are you patient today, Haruchiyo," a man with unruly and wavy raven hair, his eyes relaxed and black orbs glistened in serenity, said with a smile on his face. "Were you waiting for me?"

"Should I kill them, boss?" He was itching to pull the trigger.

As he walked, his silver chain swayed by his movements, his white sheer blouse with a ruffled collar of the same material shifted as well. The hem of his sleeves had the same ruffles as the neckline. His torso was wrapped in a white corset, gold swirls, green leaves and stems, and pink roses embroidered in the white material. His legs were clothed with brown slacks ending in the middle of his ankles, paired with white opera pumps. A white coat was draped over his shoulders, as it hovered towards the wind made by his movements. He went towards his younger brother and leaned on the wooden boxes, his body facing the scene. He then smiled, a glint of ecstasy in his eyes.

"Go ahead."

Bang, bang, bang! One bullet shot through the head of the there of them, blood flowing out the hole in the middle of their foreheads. Each one of their heads falls to the ground, still in a kneeling position. Well, that gave satisfaction to Sanzu, and most especially, Shinichiro. He had a smirk plastered on the side of his lips, looking down by the dead with amusement in his black spherules. He then stood up straight and strode towards the exit, not looking back.

He then shouted to everyone, "Clean up and go home. And Takeomi, let me speak to you real quick."

"Yes, boss," Takeomi complied, going down the stairs and following Shinichiro. the rest stoop up and clean up the mess. Mikey just sat there, still eating.
