----- Dead Apple : Without Me

|| 23. For the Tainted Sorrow, the Antidote

"CHUUYA!" You screamed.

"[Y/N]-san!" Before you can jumped out, Tsujimura pulled your hand. You sat on the plane's floor as you saw Chuuya who started raging.

"Grantors of dark disgrace, you need not wake me again!"

Chuuya's body was immediately covered by his corruption seals and marks. Chuuya immediately lost his control and became a slave to his own ability.

You could only hear Chuuya's scream from the distance.

"Amazing!" Tsujimura was amazed at Chuuya's ability. "It's all getting higher."

"His special ability is gravity control. But in this state of contamination, having become a slave to gravitons, he can neither control nor disable it." Ango explained to Tsujimura.

"So he has no control of it until he dies?" Tsujimura asked again.

"Dazai-kun nullification ability is the only way to end it. Without it, he's doomed."

"No," Tsujimura murmured. She can't believe that.

[ A/N : Is someone has a crush on him (moon emoticon). Some of Soukoku shipper hate ChuuTsuji because of this lmao ]

As Chuuya lost control, You always looked down. You were always staring at Chuuya's ability faint dim lights. You truly kept your hopes on Chuuya. "Chuuya, please!"

Everything was almost complete, until Chuuya managed to enter the bubble capsule that protected Dazai's body. Under his conscious mind, Chuuya hit Dazai with all his might.

Dazai coughed. But, Chuuya's punch managed to break the antidote capsule that Dazai had hidden behind his teeth. The bubble begins to lose its stability.

Chuuya vomited a lot of blood, remembering he was already out of his limits.

Luckily, Dazai was already awakened. Dazai touched Chuuya's cheek and neutralized his corruption mode.

[ A/N : Soukoku~ ]

"You used Corruption, believing on me?" Dazai asked him who was still closing his eyes. "How beautiful."

"Yeah, I did. I believed in your disgusting vitality and craftiness." Said Chuuya in a hoarse voice from exhaustion. "[Y/N] is helpless up there. She isn't the sadistic woman I know when it comes to you." Chuuya coughed because he was pushing himself too hard to speak.

"That was a somewhat violent way of waking Snow White." Dazai chirped.

Chuuya tightened his teeth. "You're the one who hid an antidote in your mouth, knowing I'd punch you."

They fell to the ground. "Let go, asshole!" Said Chuuya in a hurry. Dazai patted Chuuya's head. "Don't move!" He knew how weak Chuuya's body was after Corruption enslaved his body.

"The fog hasn't cleared. I don't want to have to protect you from your special ability in this situation." The fog had disappeared. But Dazai made another new fog. "It's still not over?" Chuuya asked.

"No, it's just beginning."

"Shit!" Chuuya grumbled. "I can't move a single finger." With that, Chuuya collapsed. "I predicted this far." Dazai smiled. "But the rest is on them."

"Princess, please forgive me. Maybe Papa will come home a little late." Dazai murmured in his heart. Dazai put his hand in his pocket. He gasped when his hand touched something.

"It's okay! I'm fine. But I'm not sure about Mama's condition." His daughter's soul was talking to him again.

Dazai just smiled. "I'm sure she can hold it a little more longer."

"Because I believe in her."

That one moment i hate my mind so much...
