Ichika - "Sumi, I'm so worried, where is he?!"

Natsumi - "We'll find him. It can't be too difficult to spot bright red hair."

Mitsuki - "And my brat's yelling. Unmistakable."

The three mothers were on a scavenger hunt to find their two boys. They never went to school and now it was almost midnight and they still hadn't come home.

<~>

Eijirou - "I don't think I'll ever forget the way he looked at me man. It was like there was no trace of him at all. Like I was nothing but a total stranger."

Katsuki - "He didn't run from me. He actually look like he remembered me, but then Snipe fucking shot him! He's short as shit! How the hell was he confused for an adult?!"

Katsuki pounded his beer and tossed the crushed can into the ever growing pile. Eijirou laughed morbidly and cracked open a new one for him.

Eijirou - "Who knows at this point. Maybe they were planning on taking him back dead or alive. Maybe he thought he loaded tranqs. Sans isn't here either way because of him."

Eijirou crushed another can and cracked open a fresh one. The two sat on the roof of some office building. Empty crushed cans were littered all around them with three empty six pack rings and two untouched six packs.

Katsuki sat on the ledge looking down at the passing cars and people. The sidewalk seemed to be busy all daylight and seemingly all moonlight. He felt sort've...weightless. Looking down several stories and the night breeze caressing his face. Almost like a siren's call beckoning him to go down.

Katsuki - "If I fell from this height I wonder if it would kill me...would it be instant or would I just lay there with broken bones and internal bleeding slowly dying? Would it be better if I'd never given him that chocolate? If I didn't he would probably still be here..."

Eijirou - "If you wanna ask that question, I shouldn't have asked if he was okay. I should've assumed he was a junkie and moved on with my life. Let him be someone else's problem. But that wouldn't have been too manly of me, huh?"

Katsuki - "I miss him."

Eijirou - "I do too. I hate how much he wove himself in my family. I wish I didn't love him as much as I do! I wish he was easy to hate!"

Tears pooled down Eijirou's face as he sobbed. His half full can was chucked against the wall across from him. The foamy golden liquid splattered against the concrete and his lower legs. Katsuki saw his own tears drip down to the sidewalk below only then hearing the jarring voices scream up at him.

Mitsuki - "Get your pale ass down here before I send you back to satan!"

Ichika - "Eiji, baby, are you up there?"

Eijirou wiped his face and peered over the edge. His moms looked so worried and scared. Katsuki didn't think his mom's voice could even shake the way it did. She was scared.

Katsuki - "Guess the jig is up."

Eijirou - "Guess so. We should clean up."

Katsuki - "I want my mom."

Eijirou - "You're definitely drunker than I thought. I'll clean up and carry you down."

Katsuki guzzled the last of his beer before Eijirou could confiscate it and lifted Katsuki on his back. The trash bag was forced into Katsuki's hands so Eiji could climb down the fire escape. When he was face to face with the three women, his head snapped to the right.

His eyes were wide, Natsumi's eyes were wide, and Ichika's hand was red. His left cheek stung and he realized what just happened.

Ichika - "Mitsuki, take Katsuki please i already called Masaru he'll be here soon."

She silently lifted her only child and Eijirou was put into the back of Ichika's car. Ichika shoved the garbage bag in the trunk.

<~>

Katsuki regained some sort of lucidity in the care ride home. His mother sat with him in the backseat as his father drove. She ran her fingers through his hair and hummed a lullaby like when he was younger.

Katsuki - "Mom?"

Masaru - "Thank god, hes awake."

Mitsuki - "You smell like shit, I'm giving you a bath when we get home."

Mitsuki waited for the snappy retort, but got a shaking hug instead.

Katsuki - "Am I not allowed to be happy? As soon as I find someone to make me happy he gets taken away. I'm sorry...I didn't mean too."

Mitsuki sighed and hugged her baby as tight as she could. Masaru was barely holding back from melting the wheel. Katsuki's face was pressed into her stomach as he curled in on himself and sobbed.

Mitsuki - "Katsuki, you deserve love and happiness just like everyone else. Even if we don't find him tomorrow, we will find him."

Katsuki - "I hope so."

<~>

Ichika - "Ditching school to get drunk?! I did not raise you to do this! Being drunk and wasting away like that won't bring your brother home!"

Eijirou sat silently in the dining room and just took it. He knew he was wrong, he needed to be yelled at. He saw Asriel and Chara peeking from their room. Aizawa and Yamada were also in front of him, with disapproving, disappointed looks.

Eijirou - "At this point in the kidnapping, chances are he's not even alive."

Shota - "So that makes it okay to jeopardize your whole future because of loss?"

Natsumi - "Sans would be so disappointed in you right now. He'd never want you to wallow like this and destroy your life over him."

Ichika held up her hand and sighed.

Eijirou - "Ma -"

Ichika - "Go get washed up then get back down here. I have to put something in your stomach. This discussion isn't over."'
