Chapter 8

The silence that took over the room after Kaito left made everyone uncomfortable, though, Shinichi was gazing at the door, face in deep thoughts, like he was warring with himself between going and following the Omega, or giving him his time, Shinichi can see his mother humming and looking at the door while looking at his sister before turning to Shinichi. "If you want, you can stay." Aaron said gently to him, whispering the words so that he was the only one who heard them.

It was a tempting offer if Shinichi was true to himself, staying here and following his mate, maybe explain things to him, maybe… just maybe… "I have the feeling that if I followed him now, I will get my hair painted blue…" Shinichi said, a small smile taking over his face, at how much truth that statement hold when he said it, he then turned to Toichi who was humming and looking around the place like he was bored, but for Shinichi's trained eyes, he knows that the man was actually taking everything in, taking in the possible escape routes, the number of the police, his speed, the number of possible allies, the man was smart, the smartest Shinichi met, and he should be, after all, being a thief was all about being nimble and fast, and boy is the man fast even with the crutches. "Toichi…" Shinichi called out which made the man turn his eyes toward Shinichi. "Give me a call if something happened, understood?" Shinichi asked already seeing how Toichi's eyes widen and start sparkling.

"You mean I can call you anytime I want?" Toichi asked with an awed voice, which Shinichi realized what the man meant by those words and he only let out a tired sigh and give the man a soft glare with no meaning behind it.

"Spam me and I will kill you." Shinichi left it at that, but he can already see the grin widening on Toichi's face, and Shinichi doesn't doubt that the man already has more than six dozens of messages planned in his head to send to Shinichi, and Shinichi was sure that one of them will be 'He called me Tou-San!' and if that message got to him, he will be sure to destroy Toichi. "Thank you for your hospitality, but as it is, I and my family need to leave, goodbye." Shinichi said as he nodded to his mother and sister informing them to meet him at the car, which the two of them gave him a nod, saying goodbye to Toichi before leaving, with Shinichi not that far behind ignoring that 'Yukiko' woman sobs.

Watching Shinichi and his family leave, Toichi counted to ten before everyone turned to him, Megure-Keibu already speed walking to him and stood in front of him with narrowed eyes, that Toichi can see the million question behind it. "Do you know what he is?" Megure-Keibu asked already leaning a little on Toichi trying to appear bigger and intimate him.

"He is a businessman?" Toichi said while tilting his head widening his eyes like an innocent little boy, Shinichi and him agreed on the story that said that Toichi was able to run when he saw the BO distracted and Shinichi found him and helped him, not telling everyone (But his wife when they return home) about the truth that took a place, but Toichi can see the emotions that warred in the inspector's eyes.

At those words, the inspector growled at that and leaned on Toichi even more. "Don't play coy with me Kuroba! He is a Shirosaki; everyone knows that the Shirosaki are Yakuza, tell me, is he or is he not one of them?" Megure-Keibu hissed making everyone freeze at that, especially the Kudou as they turned their head to Megure-Keibu with disbelieve in their eyes.

"I don't know, you tell me." Toichi said after blinking his eyes, snapping his poker face in its place as he looked at the inspector, already planning a counter back attack to deny everything the man said, but if push came to shove then it seems that Toichi had to use the Shirosaki's influence and fear.

"Don't you understand, we have to eliminate them, they have to be trailed for the wrongs they did! They are nothing but criminals!" Megure-Keibu snapped as he looked Toichi hoping that the man will understand and back him up, giving him enough evidence to arrest the Shirosaki family, considering no matter how much they tried to inflate and sent undercover agents nothing worked, the Shirosaki are too careful!

"Criminals? That's strange, didn't the emperor himself appointed them as the royal guards?" Toichi asked the smile that was on his face a few seconds ago vanished, his words, made the inspector click his mouth shut and glared at Toichi, knowing that the man was hiding something but refusing to tell them. "You say that they are criminals when in fact they did more than the police ever did and catching all the 'real' criminals." Toichi said which made the Alpha inspector bristle at that and glared at the man.

"Catching them and killing them executioner style, when they should have been brought and trailed for the wrong they did!" Megure snapped at his fellow Alpha, hating how calm the man was when they just discovered that Shinichi, the man he thought of as a son, was actually a criminal, one of the worst if he was with the Shirosaki.

"Brought and trailed for what?" Toichi said not carrying about the man that was growling at him ready to jump him. "Being brought for what? For catching mass murders, children's rapiest, black market dealers, you didn't even know about the BO until Shinichi pointed it to you because he was the victim of one of their experiments, you may refuse to acknowledge it, Keibu-San, but all the dangerous criminals are running free under your nose creating chaos that you can't stop, and you are going after the only people who stop them, because what? They don't follow the laws as you do? Need me to remind you of the child rapist that was under the loose in Tokyo not a year ago? Tell me how many children he raped? Ten? Thirty? I was told they were more than fifty, and you Keibu-San weren't able to catch him, and when the Shirosaki offered to help you, what did you do? You refused, because they were criminals that you need to catch them, you refused, and because of that, maybe fifty other children were victims… the Shirosaki though caught him in one day and left his body in your HQ. And let us dear Keibu-San not forget about the serial killers, other dangerous Yakuza, rapists, and crooked cops." Toichi snapped back, causing silence to fall on the room, no one was able to breathe, too many truths, and too many morals questionings, but Toichi in the end did have a point in his wounding words.

"What do you want me to do then? Let the Shirosaki do what they want? Let them kill? Even when they do well, they go at it the wrong way!" Megure said, now more of trying to convince himself than having a fire behind his words, which everyone noticed but didn't comment on it, not knowing what to think anymore.

"Do you know why the Shirosaki clan considered the most powerful and dangerous?" Toichi asked, and everyone knows that his question was not one that any of them can give an answer to after all the Shirosaki clan was as old as time, and all of them have heard of it since they were young. "Because if they fall… all of Japan will fall with them…" A few intakes of breath were heard as Toichi said those words, making everyone shift nervously at that. "And everyone, from Japan and its police forces knows that, only Tokyo's police don't seem to realize that… I really want to see what will you do when the emperor himself summons you to explain to him why you destroyed your own country." Silence is what took over the room, suffocating it, and making everyone hold their breath, like they were waiting for something to happen, but are too afraid to know what's going to take a place.

The door was then opened which made everyone jump and look at the door with wide eyes, only to relax when they saw Hattori and his mate followed by the Mouri and their daughter. "Huh? What's going on? And who is that old man?" Hattori asked after entering the room, and blinking at the tense silence that surrounded everyone, making Heiji purse his lips and turn to the man who was blinking at him.

"Heiji Nii-San you won't believe it!" That was Ayumi as the girl was the first to recover and rush toward the detective holding his hand tightly, her eyes widen like she couldn't believe what she was going to say to him. "Shinichi Nii-San is alive!" Ayumi breathed in elation making Heiji's eyes widen comically and his jaw to drop…

What happened?

Kaito's gaze never left the blue roses that he put on Shinichi's grave… or what supposed to be a grave, because now it may have as well proven to him that Shinichi was really dead… he doesn't even know if that man was really Shinichi… But he called your name. His traitorous Omega said and Kaito had to swallow as he let out a shuddered breath at that.

Shinichi was back… he was back… back with a new name, and new interests, and a new job, and a new family… he was back as a different man, a man that could have as well been a stranger that Kaito passed on the street without knowing. He was so different, even in his look and build, he was different, he was a businessman instead of a detective, and he was so different…

But familiar in a way, that much Kaito can say, he still has the same kind blue eyes, he still has the same scent, the same dark brown hair that burden on black, and he has the same calm voice… but was he really his Shinichi? Was he really the man he fell in love with when he doesn't even remember what Kaito and him went through?

That made Kaito purse his lips, because even in his head that sounded hypocrite, him not standing beside Shinichi just because the Alpha doesn't remember him, when in fact the Alpha stood beside him through thick and thin like it was nothing. Just thinking about that made Kaito shudder and close his eyes tightly, wondering why now? Why now of all times Shinichi decided to come back? Why now when he finally decided to let go of him and move on? Why didn't he come years earlier? When he first woke up? Or when he remembered he has a mate? Or maybe Kaito was just bitter that his Alpha took years to return to him when he was practically the neighbor next door, going to Haido only take an hour by car, so how didn't he notice when he was delivering flowers there?

Kaito closed his eyes and massaged his forehead, already feeling a strong headache going to take over, how didn't he notice when he practically did his heists all over Japan? Just thinking about that made Kaito grit his teeth as he remembered that Shinichi told them that he was a Shirosaki and even Kaito wasn't suicidal enough or an idiot enough to go against that family.

A Yakuza family that can as well be his downfall, and not just any sort of downfall, not just hanging the cape and going on with his life knowing that they wouldn't find him, he knows they will find him if they really wanted too, after all, they had an advantage that no one else has, The Shinigami… someone that no one knows if he was a monster or a man, stories circled around him in the underground, but no one knows if they even had a sliver of truth to back them up, a 'thing' that if someone decided to anger him, be it stealing from the Shirosaki or come across of him while he was on a hunt meant death.

The Shinigami, the person who was stealing his targets for months and months now, all the while Kaito had to growl and swallow his pride, fearing that the jewels that the Shinigami stole were Pandora in disguise. But even with the man's continue to steal Kaito's targets, the Omega was not confident in himself to go against that monster if he issues a challenge to the Shinigami like he normally does with any other who dared to take his kill… he knows that if he lost, his life was going to end because if one thing was true, the Shinigami never deal with anyone if it didn't mean that they will die in the end, Kaito doesn't even guarantee he will live if he won by a miracle! And to think that Shinichi was now one of the Shirosaki who deals with such monsters…

Maybe his Shinichi was really dead… Kaito closed his eyes and start walking away from the grave, not knowing where his legs were going to take him but wanting to be away from this place, heart pounding in his throat at the painful realizations he has to endure today out of every other day.

Kaito doesn't know how long he walked, but when he was done, he saw that he was back to his shop, and that made Kaito sigh and walk inside the shop, going into the back and up the stairs there to head to his apartment, after all, he really needed to sleep, at least then, he will forget all the painful events that happened today, even if it was for a short while…

He hoped to wake up from this nightmare…

"Are you sure about this Shinichi?" Aaron asked as he looked at his son which made the man who was looking out of the plane's window blink his eyes and turn to his mother with a small smile and a nod, making Aaron hum at that and lean back on his chair. "Why blue?" Aaron asked once again making Shinichi blink until it clicked in his head and a smile took over his face.

"I had that feeling… like I already know if I went after him while he was still angry, something unsavory will happen, as for the blue… I guess he did it in the past and it stuck." Those words got a smile from Aaron as he hummed and looked at the ceiling then returning his gaze to Shinichi.

"What will you do, when your Omega was already moving on or doesn't want you anymore because you are a Shirosaki?" Aaron finally dared to ask the question that was on his mind ever since he saw the Omega, he has to admit, his son's ex-mate (?) was beautiful, but they have to consider the possibility of the Omega not wanting to be with Shinichi after knowing that he was a Shirosaki. Shinichi's silence was an answer enough for him, which made the Omega, sigh, and look outside of the window. "You can't force the Omega to be with you, and you can't force him to accept you, he may not even give you a chance, after all, more than seven years passed and in a few months it will be eight, he may as well already be in a relationship with someone and your return may have as well destroyed it." Aaron said as he turned his gaze toward the window letting Shinichi go over his words in deep thoughts.

"I won't force him into something if that's what you are afraid of…" Shinichi ended up saying, his eyes never leaving the window, even when his mother turns his gaze to him. "If he moved on or doesn't want anything from me because of what I have become… then I will disappear from his life, it's as simple as that… I am not a monster like him…" Shinichi said while frowning crossing his arms over his chest as he tried to ignore the pain of what his mother hinted to him. Shinichi knows that his mate moving on was a big possibility, after all, who will wait for someone for eight years, especially when they were teenagers when they were separated.

Aaron looked at Shinichi, the Alpha lost in thoughts as he tried to regain himself and appear none-challenged which would have worked with anyone but the Omega, but Aaron knew that if he pointed that to the Alpha he will close on himself more than he already was, so he let his son have the time he wanted to regain himself…

He hoped it wouldn't end up like that…

So what do you think?
