Once we ensured the staff's safety we immediately left. Dazai said that he has other business to take care off so I decided to go home to my brother too. It's almost time to cook him lunch anyways.
"Where did you run off to by the way?" He asked when both of us were walking on the sidewalk.
"Somewhere, however I found something interesting" It probably wouldn't hurt to tell him what I saw this morning as this could also benefit us.
"What is it?" He seems invested now.
"Well it's obvious that the Port Mafia is already causing chaos. I saw Akutagawa this morning, he was fighting two of the Guild's member and their ship was burning" I just hope that this becomes useful in the future. I'm familiar with the priest's ability also the girl so at least we can have that information.
I explained what I saw to him but of course left the part that I saved Akutagawa and why I was really there. He doesn't need to know that yet.
"They seem dangerous. Let's just hope that Akutagawa managed to kill them" I should've checked if they lived or not but my priority was just solely focused on Akutagawa at that moment.
"The Guild is pretty dangerous as we do not know what they're capable of. Let's just hope we come out victorious after all of this" I hope we win. I hope there aren't a lot of casualties that the Agency will take.
"I'll go now" I said and waved. He bid goodbye and also went to the opposite direction, probably to meet a old friend of his.

"I'm home" I said once I got in. It's quiet so I decided to check up on my brother to see if he's alright.
When I opened the door to his room I saw that he's sleeping peacefully, I was right. He got bored and decided to sleep instead. I took off my shoes and decided to lay down beside him, I squeezed in and gave him a hug, hiding my face in his chest.
"You're home early" He sleepily said. At this point he has already wrapped his arms protectively around me. I miss this.
"Yeah" I said before closing my eyes and falling asleep in his embrace.
----------
When I woke up the sun was still up but I could hear my phone, someone's calling me again. I looked up and saw that my brother is still sleeping, he must've been pretty exhausted these past few days that he wasn't even woken up by my phone.
I slowly lifted his arm that's around my waist and slowly got out of his embrace. I also put a pillow on my place just so he won't feel that I'm gone right away. I then went to the kitchen and made him some food.
While I was making him curry I decided to answer the call, it was yet again Dazai. I answered and put the phone in between my shoulder and ears while I prepare my brothers food.
"Dazai-"
"Where the hell are you again?! We've been busy running around all day and you've also been missing all day!" He's mad. What the heck? He literally saw me and he's wondering where I am?
"I just needed to take care of some personal businesses-" He didn't even let me explain and cut me off.
"I don't care about your personal business! The whole city is in trouble and you're nowhere to be found!"
I looked down, feeling guilty. I immediately finished what I was cooking and ran towards Akutagawa's room to get him some food.
"I'm sorry, I'll be there" He's right. I've been gone for days while they suffer because of my absence. I've been completely useless these past few days.
"Do not touch any trees on your way here" With that he ended the call and I rushed to put on my shoes, I didn't even bother changing and went to write on a sticky note that I'm going since he's still sleeping.
Brother,
I'm sorry but something came up which is why I needed to go. Make sure to finish this when you wake up and do not touch any trees okay? I'll be going now.
When I got there the city was a mess, there was chaos everywhere. People are killing each other and burned cars are everywhere too. Accidents are happening left and right. Just what the hell happened while I was away?
I ran everywhere trying to find Dazai but saw two people trying to kill each other instead. One has a knife and the other one doesn't seem to mind and continued charging the other. I rushed towards them and managed to get the knife and throw it away. Both of them tried to choke me but I managed to get away. What do I do? What do I do? There's nothing that I can use to restrain the both of them.
What if I? Will that even work? Ahh, there's no time to think now! I just got to do it and save other people!
I then hit their nape lightly but just enough for them to lose consciousness but not be dead. I sigh when I saw that they are now sleeping peacefully and then began to transfer them somewhere more safe. If I just leave them here on the side of the road some maniac may just ran over them.
When I successfully did I ran away looking for more people to help. Since there are accidents everywhere I looked for survivors in those.
"Hello? Is someone in here?" I said when I neared a collision between two vehicle. My heart was beating so fast, I haven't seen anything like this so I don't know what to do.
"I... I'm here" I heard a faint voice of a boy. I looked at the cars and saw that a little boy was trapped in the back seat. It seems like his legs are stuck on the driver's seat. The seat was bent backwards crushing his legs.
Shit. I am not as strong as Kenji. Can I even do this? What am I thinking? It doesn't matter if I can do this, I need to do this.
The kid was crying in pain which broke my heart. Where are his parents? Why didn't they try to help him?
I opened the car door and examined the situation. If I can just move it just enough for his legs to come out it'll be okay. I just need to put all of the strength I have into it.
"Don't worry, you'll be alright. I'll help you get out" I assured him. He nodded and tried to hold back his tears but it was impossible to do because of the pain that he's feeling.
"P-please help m...me. I can't m-move my legs" I nodded my head and wiped the tears on his face and gave him a smile.
"Don't worry, we'll get you out here okay?" He nodded and braced himself. Meanwhile I tried to calm myself down and prepared to push the seat.
I put both of my hands and pushed as hard as I could but the car seat didn't even budge. I'm so screwed... What do I even do? My ability is to kill not push things!
"Please, please. My feet is starting to go n-numb" Shit.
What are you doing Koemi? You need to save this kid! Be useful for once! Help people, that's what you do. Do not be useless all the way please!
"It will hurt more once the car seat is lifted off of your legs okay? But don't worry, I'll bring you to the best doctor" The kid looked terrified but nodded bravely. I smiled at him before putting all of my force into that car seat that I even had to scream on top of my lungs.
I was about to give up when I felt the car seat budge. It's moving, it's moving, it's moving! I continued pushing it even though my arms started feeling sore until the kid can get out.
He screamed in pain because of the pressure that was weighted off of him. This was not over, I need to bring him to the hospital so they can treat him immediately.
The hospital was so busy when I got there but I went to the doctor that I know and demanded him that he take care of the poor kid first. He was hesitant at first but soon accepted.
"Don't worry okay? You're in good hands now. I'll be back when your done" He nodded weakly and then they immediately went to bring him to get his X-rays to see if any bones are broken.
Now I really need to go to Dazai.
When I got to where Dazai and Atsushi-kun is it seemed like they were already done with their part of the job. Looks like the curse is gone for now.
"Now, what do we do?" I didn't announce my presence but I already know that Dazai can sense me from here.
"Dazai-san, I'm reminded of a line from a book I read a long time ago. The head may err, but never the blood. I have an idea" Now what is he thinking? I can't even think of any ideas right now as I'm way too rattled about the situation.
"It may seem out of the question to everyone else. Yet to me, to my blood and soul, it seems like the only correct answer"
"What's the idea?"
"An alliance?" What? Is it really happening right now? Can I really fight along side with my brother now and not make it suspicious?
"They're the most powerful in Yokohama, and they're trying to defend this city. There's no better organization to help us in our fight against the Guild"
"And which organization is that?"
Please say Port Mafia, please say Port Mafia, please say Port Mafia.
"The Port Mafia"
