Chuuya

"You."

???

"!... Me?..."

The astonished boy saw you and Chuuya turn around and face him.

Chuuya

"What the hell do you think you're doing, following us around? Don't think I haven't noticed."

He appeared to be afraid. The boy then took a book and a pen from his bag.

???

"Ah... Seems like I've been caught..."

Chuuya

He's just going to give up like?... Just like that?

You were paying close attention to what he retrieved from his bag.

???

"I just..." *Sigh* "Okay, it's a bit embarrassing but!..."

You

What is this guy saying?...

???

"I've been a really big fan of that man you're working for right now, R/N, for such a long time... I was only following you around so I could get his autograph... Agh, I know! It's embarrassing!"

Chuuya

"Autograph?..."

???

"Yes!..."

Chuuya

"... My apologies. I thought you were one of the many enemies that have been after him."

Chuuya turned around to inform R/N that someone wanted his autograph.

???

"That's because I am one of them."

He said, under his breath.

As you heard this, you instantly turned around, whirling Chuuya with you. He launched the pen directly at your face, and a dazzling flash of light burst before your eyes. Everyone around you, including you, was blown away.

You

Shit! It's the bomber!

The bomber, who claimed to be someone who looked up to R/N, had prepared a slew of explosives disguised as commonplace items.

You were able to get out of the mess in time thanks to a great deal of training in the past. Chuuya is the same way.

You

"Oh, R/N!"

That was correct; if you didn't defend R/N, both you and Chuuya would have ended in the failure of this mission.

R/N was slumped against the wall, his body trembling. He was already receiving assistance from the other two bodyguards, who, astonishingly, had not been injured in any way.

You

"Is he hurt?!"

Chuuya

"What a pain in the ass..."

Chuuya glanced behind him, seeing the dust clear as this "fan" of R/N's walked through it. The noises of pounding on shattered glass were thunderous.

Chuuya

"You two, would you be able to escort R/N to somewhere safer than here? I and Y/N can deal with this bomber."

The two bodyguards nodded, carefully carrying R/N's delicate body. You two turned around to witness the bomber, who was armed with tons of bombs.

Bomber

"Aw, man... And I thought that I was doing so well too."

You didn't like this idea. It was exactly like that day, a bomber against a bomber. The last time a battle like that happened, things did not go well.

But you did want to complete this job for both Chuuya and Mori.

The people in the area surrounding the blown and entirely demolished place began scurrying about in fear, and you were concerned that someone would be hurt from the incoming damage you and Chuuya were about to cause.

You'd think by now that this bomber has caused serious damage. It was assumed that it would have been crowded all around you.

You

Why does Las Vegas have to be such a crowded place?!... We can't fight in the mall, we'll have a big price to pay... And if we bring this mess outside, there will still be tons of cars and even more people...

Chuuya

"Y/N, it'll be fine to continue the battle in the spot we're in right now. I know what you're thinking about."

You

"Hm, so you can read minds too?"

Chuuya

"Actually, yes! I'm a mind reader!"

This was very irresponsible of you two to be joking before going into a fight. But I believe it simply made you feel a little more confident, even if it didn't match the atmosphere. In fact, it improved the mood a tiny bit.

Bomber

"So what? Are you gonna make the first move or am I?"

Chuuya

"Hmph... I was busy making a joke."

You

"Wow I'm surprised- You just got pissed at him, just now?"

Chuuya

"Oh trust me, I've been pissed at him ever since I saw his face..."

Chuuya rolled up his sleeves and adjusted his hat before tossing his coat to you.

You

"Wow, sure I'm your assistant, but do I really just have to sit here, hold this musty ass coat of yours and watch you fight him?!"

Chuuya

"Eh, well if I end up finding it too hard to beat this guy, then perhaps you can join me."

You

"So unfair..."

You strolled up to a damaged section of the mall's structure and sat on it, legs crossed, elbow resting on thigh, chin resting on your palm. Mori had called at such an inconvenient moment to check on you while Chuuya was so preoccupied with the bomber.

Mori

"How are things over there?"

You

"Pretty entertaining?... R/N's being treated by a nurse right now, one of the other bodyguards told me. Chuuya's busy fighting that certain bomber that we're supposed to catch but honestly, it's a bit boring. All I did was cling to his arm and call the cops."

Mori

"As much as Chuuya may incredibly hate this, force yourself to join him in battle. Even if he doesn't want you to and thinks that he can do it himself, just join him. I know he needs the assistance."

Mori then ended the call.

You

"Agh, he's probably just gonna yell at me and talk about how I messed things up non-stop..." Then again, this is Mori we're talking about... I'll assume that what he told me just this minute was an order.

You stood up, leaving Chuuya's coat on a shattered piece of the mall's roof that was now lying on the floor. One of your bombs cut Chuuya off just as he was about to unleash another punch that would send the bomber flying again, "stealing" his spotlight.

Chuuya

"Y/N, what the hell?!"

You

"Don't get mad at me, I'm just following simple orders."

Chuuya

"The hell do you mean, 'simple orders'?!"

The bomber had underestimated the two of you, he was so silent. You two were bickering your asses off while this bomber was practically knocked out cold, down on the ground. He'd endured far too many of Chuuya's blows, and he wasn't used to it.

Bomber

Everything is spinning around me... What are they saying?...

The bomber squinted his eyes in perplexity. He observed Chuuya making large body gestures while you just folded your arms. He could hear your murmured arguments as well, the ringing in his ears was far too much for him to handle.

Chuuya

"Come on! I can handle this myself!"

You

"Well, I've been ordered to join you by our boss, of course, I can't refuse that!"

Chuuya

"Hey... But I thought I was the boss of you..."

His voice instantly sounded whiny.

You

"Oh please, stop that."

You two were so preoccupied with fussing that you hadn't seen that the bomber had stood up and was headed over to his bag, which contained all of his other explosives. He dragged his feet, attempting to maintain his balance.
