----- Dead Apple : Without Me

|| 25. Sunrise, Urges to be with You

YOU ran outside the room. "Tsujimura, open the landing gate!" You shouted.

You can't take it anymore. You can't just stay there and watch your city on fire.

"[Y-Y/N]!" Ango called you while Tsujimura obeyed you too.

"My ability, Goddess of Calamity : Angel of Death!" After your wings formed, you flew down to the place of the conflict.

Ango can only sat down, lamented the fate of the city later.

When you arrived, you found Shibusawa's place. You also found Akutagawa and Kyouka. You immediately called their names and went down. "[Y/N]-san?!" Both of them were surprised. "What the hell are you doing here?!" Akutagawa asked.

"I have to save my husband and daughter. After my brother and my two bestfriends died, I felt like I was losing my lights. But I realized, I have Dazai and my daughter now. So, I will defeat him too."

You relinquished your footing again. "Goddess of Calamity : Armored Valkyrie!" Your body and knives wings were immediately covered by a bright white aura. That aura protects you from various cuts.

[ A/N : Armored Valkyrie is a sub-ability of Goddess of Calamity. It has the whote aura that can protect the user from cuts and some attacks. For the example, it's almost the same as Akutagawa's Demonic Armor. ]

The battle of three against one begins.

"I expect that this, too, was within your calculations, Dazai-kun." Mori murmured while still trying to defeat Elise's shadow. "Thought I don't have time to worry about others right now."

With that, all the gifted in the city, fought tooth and nail to get their abilities back. Slowly but surely, they also managed to get it back.

"I feel like that weretiger was the one who need to solve this. It's useless if we do it." Akutagawa said in the middle of the battle.

"That boy from ADA?!" You shocked. "No! But first, we must help him! We need to make Shibusawa weak!"

Kyouka herself still felt like a mafioso under your leadership. You're a skilled executive in Port Mafia. Every words of you has authority and will always affect the listener. So clearly everyone will listen to your words.

"Goddess of Calamity : Raining Blood!"

Behind you, there were already many floating bullets ready for you to rain on Shibusawa. With your ability, your hands directly control all the bullets.

[ A/N : Raining Blood is a sub-ability of Goddess of Calamity. It can summons so many bullets and make it like a raining bullets. ]

But it's not easy. You wasn't sure if you can survive. Again and again you were knocked down by Shibusawa.

"Damn it! When will Atsushi wake up?" You tried your best to keep on the battle. "That boy, we'll give you the good part. So pick yourself back up, White Tiger!"

Either because Atsushi heard it, a blue flash came towards them. They were all surprised when they heard the roar of a wild animal. But Atsushi couldn't hear that sound from a distance, the white tiger in Atsushi's body was the one who can heard it.

"Is that Atsushi?" You asked with a still blurry vision.

"Dragon Tiger is the well-deserved name." From Shibusawa's words, you were sure it was Atsushi. "The Russian who told me of your existence told me that the dragon is the true form of the chaos of special abilities. Then, as you are the one who embodies the tiger, you are the antithesis of all special ability."

"Took you long enough," Akutagawa grumbled, waking up after Shibusawa slammed him down.

"Are you going to kill me again, Nakajima Atsushi-kun?"

You, Kyouka and Akutagawa immidiately shocked. "I'm simply going to return something to where it belongs."

The battle continued. But over time, the pressure you and others put on Shibusawa didn't work. Atsushi remained overwhelmed even though you helped him. He began to return to his despair.

"Kyouka!" You immediately hold Kyouka's body which almost hit the rocks.

"You okay?" You asked. "What the hell is he thinking about?!" You said when you saw Atsushi was a little daydreaming because of his despair.

Kyouka who was in your grasp tried to stand up. "We have to wake him up."

"Is there still a way to defeat him?" Atsushi asked.

You took a deep breath. "Stupid-Tiger, what would Dazai say if he saw you like this?!" You shouted, making him shocked.

"Akutagawa-san, [Y/N]-san and I have been through much worse than this," Kyouka said, convinced Atsushi that as a former member of Port Mafia, she had been through many things worse than this.

"Not that I wanna get used to it, Weretiger! But this is nothing for all Port Mafia member."

"But what should we do?" Atsushi asked.

"Are you still asking?! We should fight back! Or you want to do nothing? You wanna sit here 'till we're crushed by Shibusawa?!" You asked with anger. "Atsushi, please save Dazai and my daughter!"

Your scream woke Atsushi out of his despair. It was silence between them.

"The three of us need to combine our strength. Otherwise we can't secure our place of being." Finally Atsushi can make a decision.

"Three?" You confused.

"Kyouka, Weretiger," Akutagawa called. "[Y/N]-san." He finally called you. "You understand what you need to do, don't you?" He asked.

"Yeah, I know." Atsushi replied.

"Only you can save Dazai-san. So I leave him to you, [Y/N]-san." Akutagawa called his Rashoumon once again.

Without turning his head, Atsushi spoke, "[Y/N]-san, you can look for Dazai-san's whereabouts. The rest of us will take care of this. If we saw Dazai-san, we'll told you too."

You were surprised. You can't just leave the three, especially because Atsushi and Kyouka are Dazai's trusted subordinates and Akutagawa is your subordinate. But you immediately understand the conditions. With the remaining energy, you flew using your Angel of Death wings.

Once again, you looked down, seeing how the Weretiger, the Demon Snow, and the Rashoumon fought Shibusawa.

It didn't take long until the bluish light covered the entire city center. Everything felt silent to your ears and dazzling to your eyes.

Once again, the light enveloped Yokohama. The previous bluish light removed all the fog that covered the city. The dawn light began to warm your body. Everything is the same as the Yokohama you normally know. Yokohama that full of warmth and promises that you knit with those you care about. Yokohama that you and everyone loves.

In the government building, Ango immediately dropped himself into his office chair. He sighed with relief.

"The Clock Tower esquires have called to inform us that their mission has been aborted." That europe women informed it to Ango. Ango was relieved that Yokohama did not burn down.

When you find Chuuya. You immediately go down to meet him.

"Chuuya!" You called his name then ran towards him. "What the hell are you doing here? That dimwit Dazai is safe!" He said. You can only sat beside him and held back your tears.

"Oh! Your earrings broke! It seems like [Y/D/N] thinks her job to protect you is finished. Meet her with Dazai now!" Chuuya's ordered you to meet your little family.

Not too long, Akutagawa passed. "What the hell are you doing here?" Chuuya asked the same question to that Rashoumon Boy. Chuuya told him too that Dazai is safe.

Unwilling to acknowledge his concern for Dazai, Akutagawa intends to leave. "Yo! Give me your shoulder!" Chuuya ordered to Akutagawa with a small laugh, making you giggle. You also said goodbye to Chuuya to find Dazai.

Until you circle around the city center, you find Dazai with Atsushi and Kyouka. "Damn it! Why should I need to circling the center?!" You cursed under your breath, knowing Dazai would find Atsushi and Kyouka.

You can't take all of your urges to be with him.

"DAZAI!"
