Pairing: Established Yuma x Shobee.

Summary:

Tsukumo Yuma's parents are trapped in a cave-in during an archaeological survey, and no one can rescue them. No one, that is, except a crazy, reckless runt with a forklift!


"Shobee-kun, stop! It's too dangerous!" Kotori stood in Shobee's way.

"Move! Let me through, dammit!"

"I'm not moving until you've thought this over! Do you know how much worse Yuma will feel if he loses you too?"

"His parents aren't dead yet! But they'll run out of air soon if we don't get them out of there! They're caught behind that cave-in, and nobody's doing a damn thing about it!"

"Because the area's unsafe! You take that forklift anywhere near those rocks, the ground could swallow you up!"

"The forklift's not as heavy as those big trucks and excavators! A little guy like me, I can make it! Trust me, this is me thinking small for once!"

"You're going to kill yourself!"

"And if I don't try, Yuma might kill himself!"

"I was there when Yuma went through losing his parents the first time! He put on a happy face, but it tore him apart on the inside, so believe me when I tell you he can't lose anybody else important to him!"

Shobee didn't second-guess himself. Nothing Kotori said would have halted him from the start.

He accelerated the forklift past her. This was the one time reaching the brakes 100% of the time wasn't an issue, since he had no intention of braking.

Others yelled at him to turn back.

Only Yuma's horrified scream landed.

"SHOBEEEEEEE!"

Kotori held him.

Good. Yuma would need her in case this didn't work.

"KAZUMA-SAN, BACK AWAY FROM THE ENTRANCE!"

Shobee bailed. He rolled and the sandstone under him cracked without collapsing. Shobee guessed right he was light enough. He heard the forklift crash into the pile of rocks, its tines driving a hole into what was almost the husband and wife's tomb.

Kazuma boosted Mirai through it, before pulling himself out towards the desert sunlight.

Yuma and Kotori gasped.

The rescue team divided into three immediately, deciding to crawl to Yuma's parents and Shobee while tethered to extract them.

After they were saved from the temple of doom, Yuma ran up to give his mom and dad a hug.

"Tochan! Kaachan!"

Kotori cried seeing Yuma cry. Then seeing Shobee, Yuma swung around and gave him a hug.

"Yuma, who is this?" Mirai asked.

"I'm the great Yuatsu Shobee! I'm –"

"He's my boyfriend, Kaachan," Yuma interjected. "But don't listen to him. He isn't great. Just crazy!"

"Yeah! I'm crazy, damn you!"

"And reckless!"

"Yeah! I'm reckless, damn you!"

Mother and father smiled at each other.

"They're quite similar, aren't they dear?"

"It sure seems they are, ha ha ha!"

The traction between Yuma's Kattobingu and Shobee-kun's heavy machinery power was as construction: A lot of noise made, yet things got done!
