A/N: Ignore my grammar mistake and enjoy.

"How are we going to find cartouche?" Mikado asks.

"I also wonder where he will put it." Kida open his phone. "It looks like there is an update in our phone, check this out Mikado." He says as he let Mikado sees his phone. "It is a list of name of people participating in this game include with their pictures too, look like there are thousands of people but only 20 spot are left for the next level."

"Next level?"

"Yeah, there are a total of 5 levels. I don't know what kind of games is this but it is better we complete it and go ahead to the next one. It says here that if we pass the first level we able to get out of here and go ahead to the next stage."

"What happen to those that don't pass?"

Kida didn't answer him and continue pulling Mikado hand unknown that they being follow by the blond.

Mikado can feel another presence besides them and speed up his pace.

"I got a bad feeling about this."

Izaya smiles as his watch the screen above with his leg cross, Namie continue standing behind him with a bored look.

"5 people already die." She informs him.

"Not as many as I thought, we need more blood Namie. We need to color the Ikebukuro with more red so it will be just like in the painting, 5 people in 20 minutes is not enough for me." Izaya says as he looks up at the white ceiling.

"Why do you create this game, Izaya? Why do you decide to start it now after you have finished it years ago?" she asks. "Does this have to do with that kid Ryugamine Mikado?"

"What if I say it does?"

She gulps to see the look on Izaya face as he turns to look at her, his eyes is full of annoy and murderous aura.

"Leave me alone Namie and let me enjoy this moment when everyone here is full of despair."

She nods and quickly walks away leaving Izaya in that room full of white and tiny screen combine to form a big screen. Seeing different screen and people changes in every minute make him feel amuse as he spot more red cover the screen. It will make him feel happier once the scene changes at the moment when someone is being kill.

"Mikado, do you like the present I give you?"

He closes his eyes remembering the moment when he spent with Mikado.

"I always love you even though we are separate but now nothing can separate us any longer." He then turns around and look at the left side of the room, there is a huge window separating him with another room. He can see what's in there while those inside that other room can't see him. Inside the room Mikado parents are lying down on the floor . . . dead.

"Mother and father in law, I will take good care of your son so please rest in peace." He laughs loudly and presses his stomach with both of his hand.

He can't take it anymore.

"Why are you following us?" Mikado asks making both the blond and Kida surprise.

"Mikado, is there someone is following us?"

Mikado nod his head and look behind, they both turn to see a tall figure walking toward them. His hair is messy, inside his mouth there is a cigarette, wearing a bartender clothes in the middle of the afternoon and both his hands inside his pocket.

"Shizuo!"

"You know my name?" Shizuo look at Kida before looking back at Mikado. "You are Izaya queen, right?"

"His not!" Kida stand in front of Mikado blocking Shizuo view. "The first time he met Izaya is when he first enter Ikebukuro and I'm a witness. He is not related to Izaya at all so don't you dare to hurt him!"

"Move kid, I only want to speak to that kid behind you."

"I won't let you!"

"Kida . . ."

"If you don't move from your spot now I will kill you." He warns and throws the cigarette from his mouth far away; they can tell from the look on Shizuo face he is piss.

"I will distract him so please take that chance and run away somewhere safe Mikado." Kida whispers and take out something underneath his shirt, Mikado eyes widen to see the knife and a hand gun inside Kida back pocket.

"Kida . . ."

"Call me when you already hide somewhere safe and if I didn't answer or someone else answers my phone quickly hang up and stay quiet until I find you." He gives an assuring smile before running away toward Shizuo to attack him. Mikado just stands there not moving an inch as he watches Shizuo easily dodge the knife attack and uses his leg to kick Kida face.

It was scary.

Seeing there is blood coming out from Kida mouth, why does this has to happen?

He gulps.

"K-kida."

"RUN! Why are you still standing there?"

"N-no."

Even though he has skinny and weak body, even if he never experience one on one battle that doesn't mean he is a coward. He won't let his friend suffer.

"LET HIM GO!" Mikado shouts as he takes out the dagger he hide in his shoes and throw it straight toward Shizuo eyes, if it isn't because of his abnormal body he would have lost his eyes.

"You save him?" Shizuo look surprise at Mikado. "You don't look evil at all."

"Of course not!" Mikado glares at him.

"That's weird."

"You're the weird one to hurt my friend like that." He points at Shizuo face. "I don't care about this Izaya guy since he put me in this game by threatening he will kill me and he even make my friend life at risk. If you dare to hurt Kida again I will throw more daggers at you." He shouts.

"You care for someone?" Shizuo blinks a few time and take off his sunglasses.

"Izaya would never care for someone so why the hell his queen protect that kid, it is either this is just an act or he is just a normal kid."

"He is not Izaya queen." Kida whispers.

"Then why the hell Celty say he is. She is not the type to lie."

"I know but the problem is Mikado doesn't know who the hell Izaya is." Kida says as he slowly gets up. "Mikado has lived in the countryside for as long as I remember."

Shizuo stares suspiciously at Kida wondering if he is lying or not.

"It is up to you whether you want to believe it or not. If my theory is correct Izaya has investigate Mikado for a long time now."

"What does this kid have to make Izaya interest in him?"

"That . . . I don't know."

Mikado watches as they whisper with each other with that expression on their face making him feel excited. Its' been a long time since he feel like this. Feeling something dangerous is coming in his life and they both . . . are dangerous people than he thought they were.

'Maybe . . . this game isn't as bad as I thought.'

"Mikado, hurry up and remembers."

"I want to be with you again."

"It is so lonely without you."

"The world has no meaning to me if you are not there."

"If I can't have you then nobody can."

"I . . ."

"I love you."
