quicksand (Dazai X Reader)

aftermath

The arrow went through and and the bomb went off, just as Chuuya finished the enemy off, big hit of air throwing us back. I saw Dazai fly past me, and I got detained by my back hitting a tree.

I think I blacked out for like a second.

I stood up holding my head and saw Chuuya, his eyes were practically white, blood coming out of them, also from his nose, mouth and head. He is really going to die. I inspected my surroundings and didn't see Dazai near, I yelled his name but not no response.

Chuuya was walking towards me, throwing black circles of compressed gravity into the floor, laughing maniacally, as if he was enjoying the storm of chaos he was bringing to his surroundings.

"Chuuya, you need to stop, you are going to die!" I screamed at him, moving slowly to the side to see if he was indeed seeing me or just walking without direction, but as I moved he moved. I have no more weapons left, they have all been lost on the impact. Plus, I don't want to hurt Chuuya more than he already is.

He then ran directly towards me, and I also ran, I just kept avoiding his attacks and running away from him like this was a children's game, tag your it, gone deadly. He was not listening to me and I could see discoloration on his skin, he was losing blood really fast, his movements were also slowing down. I still couldn't see Dazai anywhere near.

We both stopped running and just stood in front of each other with some distance, we were looking like hell. Blood dripping from our heads, I was tired. Chuuya looked so lonely? I looked at his eyes, it was as if he was not there, not entirely gone, just far away. So I walked up to the devastation personified, he didn't move but was on a defensive stance.

I just hugged him. I wrapped my arms around his neck and touched his hair.

"Please just stop, I don't want you to die" I said softly. I felt electricity run through my fingers and face, like small shocks of energy. Chuuya didn't move, it was as if he was playing a game of statue. I could feel his breath, a shallow and troubled breath.

"Ew, don't hug stray dogs, you are going to get fleas all over you" I heard Dazai say and could see the blue light deactivate the redhead's ability. Chuuya's weight falling into me and making me fall to the ground. I sat there on the ground with Chuuyas head on my lap. He was deep asleep.

"Let's go, pretty eyes, our job is done." Dazai said, looking down at me.

"Are we going to leave him here in this condition? Also the kid?" I said in an angry tone, the Executive was badly hurt, the worst out of the three of us.

"He should be fine, there is a point of extraction near where I was supposed to hand Q, but they can find them on their own, lets just go, I am tired!" The detective whined like a little child and I gave him a serious look.

"I'll take them there, just tell me where it is." I said in a low and tired tone. I'm not sure I can carry Chuuya and Q at the same time but I can try. Dazai was not looking happy, his jaw tense a little bit and his eyes closed a bit, almost unnoticeable, but I have learned to read his little expressions.

"Do what you want. I am leaving" He said and turned around, leaving me with the pass out man and boy to figure out things on my own. Dazai is pissed.

♠♠♠

I had the child on my back and I was straight up dragging Chuuya's unconscious body to the spot that Dazai told me. I feel like dying, the stupid detective would love to hear that, too fucking bad he left me here alone, I might have told him that we could jump off a cliff by now.

I made it to the place and there was a helicopter and an older man, very elegant looking, was there. He eyed me and raised an eyebrow.

"Hi, I'm here to give this to you I guess" I said pointing to Chuuya who was lying on the ground covered in dirt and blood, and Q who was sleeping on my back.

"Where's Dazai-san?" the man asked with no expression.

"Does it really surprise you that he dipped? And don't give him honorifics, he doesn't deserve them" I said laying Q on the ground and I also dropped myself to the ground, I was so tired. There I was lying between the boy and the man, adults looking like hell. Q looked more or less okay, tho it worried me that he hasn't woken up.

The poor man looked exhausted just by looking at us, he let out a sigh and lit a cigarette.

"Can I get one of those?" I asked sadly and laughing a little bit, the man looked at me judging but still gave me one. I looked at Chuuya and took some bandages I had in my pocket and started to wrap them around his head carefully, a cigarette hanging from my mouth.

"Why did you make the effort to take them all the way here, even though Dazai-san left?" The older man asked, watching me trying to help with the mess Chuuya was at the moment.

"I couldn't leave them there, one is just a kid, the other one is my friend" I said, trying to clean the blood out of the redhead's face but it was just getting more messy.

"We are the enemy, you are Agency, we are Port Mafia, my name is Hirotsu by the way" He said, taking a puff of his cigarette.

"Well, right now there was an alliance, and I think the Agency and the Port Mafia are not so different, just different sides of the same coin, you are the night we are the day, but we both want the city to survive and thrive" I said, still focusing my attention to the passed out man.

"Mmm... is that so. How are you going to head back home? We can offer you a lift out of gratitude, for taking care of our men" He said, his tone was less defensive.

"No thanks, I may be stupid enough to be friends with this Executive, but not idiotic enough to get myself in a helicopter surrounded by Port Mafia members, I'll find my way back" I told him giving him a warm smile and standing up.

"Oh, take this, I had to look for it everywhere but I did found it, it's the one he always wears, it looks older than some of his hats so I figured he would miss it" I handed the older man the hat, it was kind of dirty and torn in some places, but nothing that couldn't be fixed.

Then I walked into the forest and figured my way out of it and into the highway. Dazai was still in the car, waiting for me, just listening to his tunes. I opened the door, and he gave me a childish pout.

"What took you so long! I am starving!" He yelled and puffed his cheeks like a kid, and I just gave him a soft smile, I had no energy to fight.

I fell asleep on the way back, I was so tired that I could have sworn his driving wasn't half bad.
