Everyone was in complete shocked from hearing your words. She must be crazy.

Mikey and the other toman member has a look of disbelief, they didnt expect you to answer the riddle like that.

"Well thats an odd one, right Kenchin?" mikey uttered while facing the tall guy with dragon tattoo.

"Dont call me with that name in a place like this Mikey!" Kenchin defended.

Mikey just ignored it and turn his gaze back at you.

"You said you'd jump too? Geez.. I wasnt expecting that answer.. You mustve live in the darkness." he said while walking towards you and leaning near your face with his hands on his chin.

"Mikey-kuun..i think you are mistaken,.." you said and that make mikey confused.

"I dont live in darkness, Darkness lives in me"  you added while smiling back at him. His friendly aura disappeared and he then starts to release dark aura anf it was terrifying.

"well, we have something in common.. I guess" his aura is dark but he is still smiling at you like it was nothing.

You signed while looking at him. He put his hands to your shoulder in a few seconds before turning around and dismissing everyone. (toman members)

What the hell was that?

You return to your sit and continue what you were doing earlier! Sleeping.

Aki signed while looking at your unbothered state. The leader of toman was just here earlier and you have the audacity to sleep again like nothing happened. Thats what she thought, but deep inside you were thinking of a lot of stuff.

Maybe it was so like you to hide things from others, you never let anyone see your feelings and pain. Your have a thick mask covering you.

Its always been like this since that day. The day you and Astrid almost died.

8 years ago(California)

I woke up and my head hurts, where am i? Why is everything moving. Why is my hands tied up!?

You move to the side and trying to figure out what was happening. You can feel someone was lying beside you inside this small compartment.

Astrid??!

Where are we, what's happening.

I can see a small hole, this must be a car's trunk.

We were captured..

All i remember was Astrid and i were waiting at the bus stop when a car suddenly stopped. 3 men wearing cap and mask put something on our mouth and then everything went blank.

You panicked knowing your sister was still unconcious. You elbow her to wake up but she was in deep sleep.

After 30 minutes the car stopped and you pretended to be asleep. They both carry you into an abandon house and lay you inside an empty room.

At last Astrid woke up.

By that time, you were only 6 years old.

Those men that kidnapped the two of you started contacting your parents asking for a large amount of money.

Astrid was crying and you confort her.

I can't feel scared, No. I already am scared.

I can't show her how scared i am.

One of the kidnappers went inside the room.

"They will give us the money, we will let you go after.. But first, let me have fun a little bit" he grab Astrid and went on top of her. Shit he will harass her , what should i do..

You look at your little hands and wonders what can you do to help your sister.

You immediately saw the mans hips, his gun was there so you snatch it and pointed it on his temple.

"Get off of her or ill shoot you with this" you said while trembling.

He laughed and put his temple near the barrel.

"I can see how scared you are you little shit, im not scared of you. I can see through your soul"  he said.

I can see through your soul....

I can see through your soul....

I can see through your soul...

His words echoed to your ear making you gulped.

Its like a dark part of your  personality has been awaken. The feeling of being swallowed by your own darkness, the person you are before was slowly fading..

Your happiness.

Your desire.

Your dreams.

All of it.. Was replace by darkness.

You were done spacing out. You turn to look at the man again and your hands wasn't trembling anymore. You had this blank expression that made the man sweat drops.

"You mean, you are not scared even i pull this?" you smiled at him while slowly pulling the trigger. He attempted to grab you but it was too late, he's already dead.

The two guys outside heard the gunshot so they hurriedly  went to the room. When they open it they saw Astrid sitting beside a dead body on the floor but you weren't there.

You were hiding at the back door while pointing the gun at them. Without hesitation you pull the trigger twice aiming at the two men in front of you.

No trembling, no fear.

You walk towards their dead bodies and whispered.

"I can see through your soul" you whispered.

END of Flashback. ~~~

After the meeting Aki poke you. She gave you a list and explained some stuff.

She really is hard working..

The next day, you receive a text msg from Kazura.

****Kazura****

Hey YN. I miss you so much.!!

****YN****

I don't .

****Kazura****

Rude. Your sister is 200x more nicer than you. You know.!?

****YN****

Then be friends with her and unfriend me.

****Kazura****

You wanted to get rid of me that badly.!?

****YN****

Yeah.

****Kazura****

Ugh, the way you respond to me makes me miss you more.

***YN****

Idiot. I miss your treats more than you.

****Kazura****

I know you miss me.

*****YN****

Yeah yeah.. What ever makes you happy.

END OF CONVERSATION.

You lay down and stare at the ceiling, why do i feel empty since i left Yokohama.. It feels like a part of me was left there or was taken from me.

Was it Izana?..

Why can't i stop thinking about him.

Its not like i like him, i can see myself when i look at him..

I can see the same amount of pain he bares and hide.. Cause i did the same thing.

Should i give him a call to settle this thoughts thats been bugging me.?!

You bit your finger while looking at your phone. You knew its going to be weird to call Izana in the middle of the night and even though its daytime it still feel weird to call him cause you are no longer related to him in any way.

You signed and put your phone down.

After a few seconds your phone ring.. Someone was calling.

You look at the screen and saw the callers ID..

It was Izana..
