Sup guys. My weekend has been eventful as I had stuff to do and I had games to play. But now, I got some time over. If I keep myself awake for it. But for now, I got some omake to make. This is inspired by the song Rainmaker. You get no guesses who inspired me.

It's weird to write up in my room. Reasons for that is because my computer upstairs hasn't gotten a decent signal in months. A part of me is also caused that downstairs I can't write and now, I just want to write about it. The good news is that my Internet is finally restored at my dad's place so writing upstairs is finally going to work out with no one to disturb me.

This is also a bit of a mishmash of events. And for those who know my fics, you might have some spoilers, although, spoiling is hard in this sort of fic.


Kerlongsj wandered around the place. He had gotten used of this things of being alone in his world. Well, alone in the way of not having a partner. He didn't really bother with it.

For him, he had Anaton now. Anaton was his son now.

It still felt weird for him to call Anaton like that.

The older man still was used of having Azalof around but that wasn't the case. It had been a while since that man died and he was left around it.

Anaton had healed well. Children had proven once again they were stronger than adults. Kerlongsj was sure that he needed Anaton as bad as the boy needed the man. Kerlongsj became his father he never had and Anaton became the son that he never knew he had.

'You feel the same as me.' Anaton and Kerlongsj had been insuperable after that. It would take months before they could let go. Knowing this was your only family certainly did some things to some people.

But he and Anaton had been together and had continued to grow.

At some other place. It was proven that men could grow used to each other sooner. Joel was sure of it that with Ichika and Kizuna, he had been around males before but now, he and Mattheus were close to those guys. And it was clear. Those guys had been through some sort of hell as well when they were younger.

Bird of a feather flock together. There were others in their group but girls remained the constant of those guys. There were no other guys and still, the guys had their things.

Both Kizuna and Ichika had been attracting girls left and right. They really went fast over that and it looked clear those guys had things in mind that was funny. With Mattheus, they had each other for so long and unbeknownst to them, they had similarities with others around the globe as well.

Even so, the guys had felt a change. The cracks in their lives had been washed away. Even with how the group grew, it became clear for the punk that those kids hadn't really had parents around them.

Houki was the exception. She had her parents who were taking care of her but that was about it. Ichika had been healing her nicely after years of separation.

'You tell me that we can start the rain.' His life has been changed upside down ever since that night. But even so, he had seen things out with Ryuuin and the story the older man told him.

A red string as it was called in the East. A bond between Kerlongsj Orlejov, Reiri Hida and Chifuyu Orimura.

It had been something that made a link with them, after all, they have seen. In some way, they were lonely souls out there. Seen by the world as the best thing on the planet but in their own, they were alone and had no one else around.

Not one that could relate, no one who could help out with some ideas. No one with things that might help one out. With everyone around, they had learned some way to have that sort of thing.

Chifuyu and Reiri had met before and they didn't start off too well. Not abnormal if you consider that their machines were right in line against one another. At least, it would be the case but they had been through the same things as well so they could relate to each other.

And when Kerlongsj walked in their lives, they had found something they thought they had lost.

Sure, he was dirty.

Sure, he was covered in blood.

Sure, he had zero interest in anyone else.

Sure, he was rude and sarcastic.

And it was maybe that he had destroyed some pilots who had tried to stop him.

But the eyes are the window of the soul. And they could just look in his eyes and see what they saw in they saw in the mirror. A soul like them.

Something unique.

And despite being covered in dirt and blood, with two packages under his arms, he was something they had thought they had destroyed.

A proud male. And he was one. And for some reason, Reiri and Chifuyu had discarded all ideas fed by the media and looked at the man. They had found Kerlongsj to be a good guy.

If he looked back, he was happy that he was dirty. Because it hid the blush. Ryuuin was right. When he would meet them, his fate would have been bound to Chifuyu and Reiri.

It had taken them long times but when you had lives like these, you got used to scheming. Both Chifuyu and Reiri had come to terms they both had fallen for the man. And they had visited him at the sea.

Where he would be and where he was out in the wind blowing. They had found him and he was happy they visited him.

Of course, Kerlongsj was the leader of the Hackers but he let his boys keep it simple. Reiri and Chifuyu were slaves to Japan but they weren't too deep in.

Not everything belonged to the government. A lot of them was free. Which was good.

No one likes bought goods.

So it was at that night, Kerlongsj explained a few things to them. About the past and that he had heard of ideas.

He wasn't one to believe in destiny or fate. But hey, when it suited you.

It had been fond memories.

And now, it was just more memories.

"When I was wandering in the desert

And was searching for the truth". He sang softly as a way of waking up. Being used a pillow by those women. There were worse spot you could sleep.

Once again, he was happy that he was no longer human. Chifuyu and Reiri had woken up next to him and Chifuyu was the fastest one as she pressed a kiss on the lips. He didn't open his mouth to make out but he just pressed back.

"I hope you don't mind we're not a choir of angels," Chifuyu said as Reiri pushed the woman off as the other woman kissed Kerlongsj.

Raising one finger as her other kissed the man they loved, Chifuyu waited until they were done.

"I think that with you two, I don't need angels." He said as Reiri released him and she laid back at him.

Chifuyu went back at her spot. Both were naked. Or at least, not properly dressed.

Chifuyu and Reiri both wore a bra that was too small for some to say and Kerlongsj had only trousers who weren't able to spot under the blankets. He smiled as he pulled the two closer to his own face.

"You do know. I like this."

"Ditto."

"I am not disagreeing. Moments of these are rare in our lives." He said with a smile and none of them wanted to move. Last night had been crazy enough and all three felt how their bodies burned with tiredness.

Kerlongsj wasn't going to move but alas, time never seemed to work for him so the Flemish Devil sighed as he pulled his arms back. Both of the women knew that they couldn't stop him, even if they wanted to do so.

"You're leaving?"

It was more a whine than a real question.

"I'm afraid so. You both know that I would loved to stay longer but."

"Time is of the essence with how crazy things have gon,." Reiri said and both Chifuyu as she wolf whistled as they saw Kerlongsj dressing himself. Taking on his clothes, he was dressed quickly. Putting one arm around either woman, they both leaned in and Kerlongsj kissed them both on the lips.

"You both know what the events of the last twenty four hours meant and what it all has brought with them. Believe me when I tell you two that I won't be gone for long. Things are gonna heat up pretty soon." He said when he released them. Walking out the room, Chifuyu and Reiri both had blushes over their face.

Walking away, it turned out that both Ichika and Kizuna's room were occupied by women.

If he were a younger and lesser man, he would have been jealous but last night proved that from the three, he was the better man.

When he passed by, he saw Mattheus and Joel in a chair sitting. Kerlongsj was surprised to see the young man awake.

"You're up early," Kerlongsj said in a way of greeting his countryman.

"Who said that I slept?" Mattheus replied.

Joel was away in his lap and it looked like the hours of being awake had taken their toll on Mattheus but yet, sleep wasn't on his mind. The eyes didn't look tired.

"That was stupid of you." Kerlongsj wanted to say more as Mattheus stood and walked over to him.

"You know what else was stupid? Letting me build my IS and come here. Tell me, Mr. Kerlongsj Orlejov. Did you know about me before?"

Kerlongsj had pulled out one hidden blade but wasn't fast enough as Mattheus had taken out his own handgun and pressed at the head. Still, the blade ended up at the throat of Mattheus. Both men were ready and able to kill one another.

But none of them made a move. A tighter press, a push on the trigger.

"You want to die?"

"Been ready for that, a while ago. Again, Mr. Orlejov, why let me live?" Kerlongsj sighed.

"You want to know. You're too valuable to let you die. You're a male pilot. Something the world hasn't seen. But there's something you want." Mattheus nodded.

"Make a guess. You're smart enough."

"I can guess why. But don't be in a rush. The coming summer, things are going to happen. If I were you, stay in Japan. In Belgium, things are about to go very rocky." Kerlongsj opened his skateboard and flew away. And Mattheus deiced to tuck in for the night. But he had no idea that tonight, he would finally meet someone that would bind her soul to his.


I have written this small chapter when my body came down. Worked this holiday instead of gaming it away, like I would have liked it. But hey, you can't always get what you want. I'll let you guys know that in a few days, The Division 2 is going to be released. So you can guess what will happen in those days.

You guys can also drop by on my YouTube account for watching me play videos if you're up for that. I can foresee that next chapters will be in this fic, Afraid To Shoot Strangers and maybe En Route to a better life.

With this, I just have to put my mind to work on the chapters as I have covered it with Brave New World. So that might work.

With Afraid to shoot Strangers, I have to work through Volume 3 which is one that I want to get done with as I don't like what's all going on in that one. it's something I just have to sit out once and work on it. When it gets updates, it's either one big one so I am done or smaller ones when I am done.

En route is for later as I have taken flight. Once in the air, I should be able to get work myself through it.

The other fics, like The Graduated Student, I am thinking about things but I haven't gotten anywhere with my thoughts. I just couldn't think with ideas so those might be for later. Forgive me for that one.

Smaller fics might get updates but that's all up for to see how my time might go and my inspiration might go.

Sorry I rambled but it's better you guys know what is going to get updated. I just hope that by the time summer rolls around, I will have a few more days or with the Easter Holidays, I will have more time than I had now.

Saluut.
