title of chapter
ok so there is a mention of something happening in chapter 106 but that's about it
Shit! Why didn't my dumbass fucking check if there were any cameras around?! Dammit, they might use this against me. No, they definitely will use this to their advantage. Dammit, I've just made this so much more difficult for myself. Well, to be fair, the camera is in front of me so it would prove difficult for them to tell who I was texting. But, at the same time, I don't know the extent of Ranpo's intelligence. How am I going to tell Fyodor about thi-

"Why did you shoot him that many times?! He won't be able to survive that, and Yosano is occupied already! She won't be able to get to him in time!" Fukuzawa yelled at Ranpo, who was controlling the camera gun system thing. idk, that's not my area of expertise
"Oops.."
"THAT'S YOUR RESPONSE?!"
"Um, well-"
"Jeez, that was close."
first person agiagin brought to you by THE FUCKING WATER CATCHING ON FIRE IN 106??? WHAT
I summoned a handkerchief with my ability and wiped some of the now liquid black matter off of my face. When any of my illusions are destroyed, they explode into the same black matter; except for its a fairly thick liquid. I looked back at the camera and saw that the guns had retracted.
...
Did they fucking leave me? I think that they're focused on whatever is happening back with Chuuya. I should have stayed back to see why Chuuya went there, anyways. Well, it's not like I can't return back there.
"From the darkness I emerge.." I mumbled, walking back to the wall that I had originally come through. I placed my hand on the wall, and a portal looking thing appeared, beckoning me to enter (i feel so smart rn, i could probably do a math equation). And, I did so. Once I had appeared back to where I originally was, I saw Chuuya holding up a picture of Lovecraft and Steinbeck up to a camera. What? How did they get that? Where are they even going?
"These are.. members of The Guild?" a voice that sounded almost exactly like Fukuzawa came out of the camera, making me turn to it. Oh. So that's why they left me. Wait, that's not the point! I need to let Poe know that the Port Mafia and now Armed Detective Agency know where both Lovecraft and Steinbeck are! Dammit.. I'll just stand by for now.. I guess.
"We've lured them with bait," Chuuya had started explaining, "the time and place of their appearance are all stated here." He had paused for a moment before he continued. Wait- their current location and time of where they are is stated on that?! That's definitely not good at all.
"Do whatever you like with them. They're all yours."
"..Why?" the voice from the camera responded.
"It's a rare chance, isn't it? You can wipe out these two blasted guys from The Guild in one go!" he exclaimed, seeming to have a look with a hint of kindness in it.
Fukuzawa hadn't responded, so Yosano gave him an answer instead.
"I see," she started, eyes prying off of the camera, and earning everyone else's full attention. "That's quite an offer. But we propose something better," What is th-
"Lets chop you up piece by piece.. and have you spill what you're really up to!" Well, I shouldn't have expected anything else. I don't want to get involved in this..
"Awesome plan. Go ahead, chop chop," Chuuya responded. "Oh, also," he whispered to me, "I know you probably want to leave, but stay here for a sec, yeah?"
"..Fine. You owe me one after this," I grumbled in response, walking over to his side dejectedly. He only let out a low chuckle.
"Kenji!" Yosano yelled out, getting in a battle stance.
"Gotcha!" he responded, also getting prepared.
Not even a second later, Kenji had taken off part of the railing on the train track, and aimed straight for Chuuya, I'd assume. Not quite sure how I'd deal with Yosano, but, guess I don't have a choice..
"Come on, L/N, let's go for a dance!" the woman in question yelled at me, and started dashing towards me.
~first person brought to you by my vomit since i threw up like 2 horus ago uwu~
Yosano darted towards Y/N, who was a bit startled by her action, but was prepared nonetheless. Less than a metre away from him, Yosano swung her cleaver straight for his neck. Y/N swiftly moved to a position where he was both facing Yosano and had dodged her attack, and grabbed her wrist in an attempt to disarm her; however, she was one step ahead. She had kicked Y/N in his stomach with such force, causing him to fly back--and the heel was very painful for the shorter. However, this didn't go quite as she had planned since he kept a firm grip on her wrist, making her go follow him against her will. Y/N kept a steady balance, and attempted to disarm her once again; this time, using his ability instead of sheer strength.
"From the Darkness I Emerge.." he called out, an ominous aura overcoming him. Yosano assumed that she was supposed to be intimidated, but was prepared for the worst. Although, I do suppose that deep down, she was slightly worried, since she knew nothing about his ability. But, only slightly worried.
Y/N had used his ability to control black matter, and full force attacked her right in her stomach. It wasn't enough force to go through her body, but enough to push her back to the other side of the tunnel; her cleaver flying towards her. Just as she had hit the wall, the cleaver headed straight for her head, but she swiftly dodged it; grabbing it and shakily standing back up.
Before Yosano went back to attacking Y/N, she had noticed that Chuuya was on the ground, open, and vulnerable to any attack. She charged straight for him, raising her cleaver, prepared to behead the ginger (lmao). Only a few inches away from his neck, Yosano had nearly beheaded him; but, he had noticed her presence. He had disappeared for a second, but then if you looked up at the ceiling, you could notice that he was upside-down at the top of the tunnel.
okay back to first person bbgs ahhahahahhhh. i'm sorry.
"Showing off, huh?" I called out to Chuuya, who was now on the ceiling. There was obvious irritation in my voice. I hate it when people try to show off, but, I'll make an exception just for him.
"That ability.." Yosano panted for a second before continuing, "you're the gravity manipulator, Nakahara Chuuya, aren't you?" she had finished, letting out a breath I didn't notice she had been holding in.
"Tsk, that loudmouth Dazai's been running his mouth, huh," he scoffed, clearly annoyed at the thought of that man. I don't blame him, though.
"Enough of that, get down here!" Yosano started yelling at Chuuya, who only turned away from her in response.
I hadn't noticed before, but I saw Kenji, on the ground, and covered in rubble. But, instead of having a look of frustration, or anger, he was.. impressed?? By Chuuya??? Shouldn't he focus on the fact that he got thrown into the w-
*COUGH* (literally, the cutest cough ever in the world)
Dammit, w-why am I coughing up blood?! Well, I do guess that the kick that Yosano had dealt was a decent kick, but I didn't think that it was that powerful..
"Whoa! You okay, L/N-san?" Kenji had called out to me, his attention no longer on Chuuya, but focused completely on me, now.
"Y-yeah.. I'm fine," I coughed out. Well, considering that it's dimly lit down here, it should go away at about any second now, so..
"Since Dazai's been looking out for me so carefully.. I mustn't let his eagerness go to waste," is the only thing that I heard before there was a loud crash in the middle of the train track, diverting my attention to the sound.
As soon as the dust had cleared, Chuuya was back on the ground. But before everybody started getting into battle again, they were cut off by Fukuzawa's voice.
"Here is my answer, envoy of the Port Mafia," he had started, making everybody look back at the camera. "I am mindful of your proposal. If the Detective Agency is successful in defeating the elite forces of The Guild, you will have eliminated an enemy without lifting a finger yourself," as Fukuzawa had paused in his explanation, Chuuya strode towards the camera--nobody deciding to stop him. "Under such circumstances (cum lol)," he had continued, "it is an ingenious plan for killing two birds with one stone."
..I don't want to be here during their whole discussion. I'll just have him wake me up when it's time to leave.
third person brought to you by nikolai refusing to choke me :(
During their conversation, Chuuya had froze for a second, and noticed that there was somebody, no, something poking him. He looked to see what it was, and it was black matter controlled by Y/N, giving him a note. He looked over to where the (H/C)ette should be, but he only saw a shield looking device made out of more black matter; most likely protecting him from any potential danger. The note read,
be a dear and wake me up when everything's over, k?
..
...
first person?
"..What?" I heard Chuuya mutter, although it was fairly muffled from how thick the matter around me was. Well, never mind that..
Now I have to tell Poe.
a/n: YES, I FINALLY POSTED A CHAPTER! IAM ALIVE BUT DYING AT THE SAME TIMEN YIPPEE
BUT UHH, I'M KIND OF IFFY ABOUT THIS CHAPTER, BUT I'LL TRY AND MAKE THE NEXT ONE A LONG/ACTION PACKED CHAPTER
ALSO, THANK YOU GUYS FOR THE SUPPORT WHILE I WAS GONE??? WHAT???
I AM IN SHOCK, THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH <33
I HONESTLY DON'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY, BUT, I AM DOING A BIT BETTER. I VOMITED YESTERDAY, BUT BESIDES THAT, I'M FEELING FINE. AND BESIDES THE FACE THAT I LITERALLY HAVE INFLUENZA B, BUT, I'M DOING OKAY.
so how it happened is that my throat was basically feeling like shit, and my temperature was kind of high (37.4 degrees celsius, and about 99.3 degrees fahrenheit). i went to urgent care to get tested for strep, and after they did the check my throat thingy, i had vomited in the silly little bed that they had laid me on. (i just wanted to ask, is it just the place i went to, or does any other hospital/urgent care have you change into the robe thingy in the room that they're doing the testing in instead of a washroom?? like, he had left the room, but why can't i change in the washroom?? my mom was still in the room, but whatever) and results came back at some point, and it turns out that i had influenza. i've had it before, and i have a fairly good immune system since everybody in my house has had covid but i didn't catch it, so i promise that i'll be fine; so don't worry.
and no, i am not english, i am american. my mom's side of the family is english, or "british", and i've just gotten used to using british english instead of american english. i use both celsius and fahrenheit, and metres/meters and miles. i just wanted to say that because i can, don't ask questions bbg
BUT YEAH, THAT'S IT! HOPEFULLY I CAN GET MOTIVATION AND POST TOMORROW OR ATLEAST HAVE A CHAPTER OUT BY THE DAY AFTER THAT, BUT BYE MY SKRUNKLIES <33
