Chapter 3: Meeting Bonten

────────────

.・゜-: :-A little girl giggles through the phone as both siblings attentively listen to their mother speak through the line...

"Yeah! It was sooo crazy! They had the audacity to even bribe me with a stupid candy!", mom snorted through the phone as my brother laughs. "I obviously didn't tell them your whereabouts you know? I'm not that stupid"

"But...they'll find you sooner or later. Bonten is the top criminal organization in Japan. Finding you through connections will be easy for them", brother say through the phone.

"I know. I just need to finish arranging all of the documents and I promise you that we will live a peaceful life...", mom said. Her tone saddening.

"We know!"

"All right I better get going now. Stay safe and remember-"

"Stranger Danger. Never trust or talk to strangers", we both spoke in unison as we all giggle. "Stay safe mom!"

We were both left in the care of mom's cousin for a month. His name was Hiroto. Mom's one and only sole relative in the whole wide world. We're currently staying in their house that was shared with his wife and daughter who was the same age as me.

"Y/n let's go play!", my face softens at how cute my cousin was. "Okay Ai-chan", that was my nickname for Adelaide.

Few Days Later

Today was not one of those days. We were standing in front of our mother's bed in pure horror. "M-mom?", my hand shakily grasped her face.

Everyone was also there in the hospital room with devastation etched on their faces. Kikyo unexpectedly had an accident on the way back to Japan to pick us up.

We had just received a call early in the morning about what happened from her friend. How could this happen?

"Mom!!!", I completely broke down. "No! Mom wake up!! This isn't funny! We have to leave Japan right?! We still have to live peacefully...with you!! Wake up!!!", I cried in remorse and sadness dropping to the floor and holding her hands.

The people in the room couldn't hold their tears now that they have seen Kikyo's daughter completely breaking down.

Daisuke hugged me tight as I sobbed in his chest. He whispered comforting words to my ears until I fell asleep in his arms.

-The Next Day-

I open my eyes just to immediately squint it shut because of how bright the sun rays illuminated my face.

"Are you awake?", I turned to my side and see my brother with puffy red eyes. I could say the same with me. I could still feel snot running down my nose from all crying. 'Gross..'

"Mom suddenly had an accident. Do you think its the work of them?", I sniffed.

"I don't think so. They wouldn't just do that if they were looking for her. Maybe it really is just an accident"

"I hope so..."

"What are we gonna do now?"

"If they really come for us. Then we surrender", I shortly replied jumping out of the bed. "Hah?"

"You heard me. We can't do anything about it anymore. Mom's in a coma and none of us is in power to stop criminals", I say with my brows furrowed just thinking about it. "We just have to stay perfectly still. It's not like they will do anything to kids right?"

"Y/n. They're criminals. They could r*pe or hurt you in your sleep. Or even in front of me!", he shook me by my shoulders as he screamed at me in frustration.

I look down. "We really don't have any choice. Everyone had helped us all these years, we can't afford to bring them into our mess", I whisper.

"Don't you think so too? Onii-san?", he hesitantly nod.

"So what are we gonna do? Surely enough they already know our situation and they will surely meddle and maybe not let us out of their sight"

"Easy. We escape today and leave them a letter"

"That's better than making them think we already got kidnapped..."

"You handle the packing while I write the letter", he smiles and hugged me. "Y/n whatever happens. We'll always be together. I'm always here"

"Me too"

━━━━━━༺༻ ━━━━━━

Dearest Relatives and Friends,

The moment you read this letter.. Your worst fears have just come true. Please don't worry and just sit back. We don't want all of you getting caught up in our business which may also endanger your lives. This may or may not be our last moments with you. But we just wanna say thank you for taking care of us all this years. Please don't worry anymore and forget about us. Take care of mom for us in any case she still haven't been touched. We will handle this by ourselves. And for the last time, FORGET about us and worry for yourselves.

Thank you and Goodbye.
Love, Y/n and Daisuke

━━━━━━༺༻ ━━━━━━

I let go of the pencil with trembling hands. My eyes blur as I try to hold in the tears. Everyone had been so kind to us and supported us greatly.

"Y/n. It's time to go", Daisuke's hand patted my shoulder.

"Okay", I tie my hair in a high ponytail and lifted off the hood of my hoodie. One last time before jumping out of the window. I see warm memories flash through my eyes. As I sigh and never looked back.

࿇ ══━━━━✥◈✥━━━━══ ࿇

How ironic. I deadpan.

We were being surrounded by men in suits as they wiggle their creepy-assed hands trying to get us. "Stay...still!"

"Quick get them!", it was like playing tag but with thugs.

"Don't let them out of our sight!", I crawl under one the men's legs and kicked him straight in the balls. It was broad daylight and they're trying to get us when we just got out of the house for like....an hour! It was like they were expecting us.

"G-gotcha...*huff*"

"Kyaa??!", I scream as I was being held by the hood literally choking me earning Daisuke's attention at the same time as he turned at me. But the moment he did that he was knocked off by one of them.

"Brother! Let go!", well the first plan was to run away by ourselves and leave our mother for the care of others. They won't be able to touch her since she's in a coma.

"Stop wiggling!"

"Mmmph!!!", I was starting to fall asleep as a cloth cover my mouth. The last thing I witness before darkness consumed me was seeing my brother unconscious and on another man's shoulder being taken away.

࿇ ══━━━━✥◈✥━━━━══ ࿇

I wake up to see my surroundings had changed and I see men in expensive suits staring at us with amusement. Well the others was, there were 3 people with stoic expressions just staring.

But the one that scares me the most to the point it makes my skin crawl was the man in the middle. He looks looks like he's the shortest of them all with his hair dyed white and his eyes....was so shallow that you couldn't see where it will end.

"They're awake", I carefully stood up.

"Are you sure that kid's mine?"

"We will find out once the DNA's back", I bit the inside of my cheek as I look down. 'He must be Daisuke's biological father... The leader of Japan's number one criminal organization!'

"Fufu~ how interesting. Kikyo's got another kid? But seeing they don't have a father based on her files he must've ditched her", I look up to see the man who offered me a bag of candy days ago chuckling.

He was smirking and waving at me. "Yohoo! It's been awhile since we met brat!", I grit my teeth but went on to my innocent facade.

"Eh? It's the mister with the bad smell!", I point to him with shine on my eyes and a goofy smile. Daisuke snorted in response.

The men stared at my movements in silence while I remained petrified still in that position. 'ATLEAST MOVE YOU DAMN IDIOTS!', I panic on the inside.

Then a pink haired man with scars on both sides of his cheek bursted out laughing in response. I remembered he was the one who threatened our mom in the first place.

"BWAHAHAHA!!! EVEN A KID CAN TELL THE DIFFERENCE!! DAMN I LIKE HER ALREADY", he laughed.

Ran who grew tick marks told me with a gritted smile. "That's rather insulting don't you think so? How about I-", he reached for his gun making me flinch in place as I still stare at them with an Innocent smile.

Ran was trying to get ahold of his gun wanting to kill the brat who insulted him. A man with a scar right on his eye tried to hold onto his arms as Rindou also did the same trying to calm his enraged brother down.

"ENOUGH!", a single word from the white haired man already silenced them all making me stare in awe.

"Enough with all this. Now let me ask you again. Where is your mother?", this time he was glaring at us. But I didn't feel scared or what.

Rather I was saddened. Suddenly, remembering the past events as to why we are currently in this position.

Drip

Everyone now stared at me crying. My hands was trembling as I try to stop and wipe my tears away. Daisuke looks at me with wide eyes, I can see how his mouth was trembling, probably holding his tears.

The man in the middle stares at us with a crunched face. "What's with the crying? It's annoying"

The whole place was quiet only my sniffles was heard so I OBVIOUSLY heard that. I wanted to glare. I wanted to shout. I wanted to scream and hit him for leaving Mom all this years suffering just to become a criminal.

But I'm still a child with no power nor strength to push them away. I could only obey and listen.

"Mommy she....", I bite my teeth trying hard not to scream my emotions out. "....got into an accident..."

Calm down...

"Accident huh... Did she tell you that?", his peircing gaze was like a stab to me.

Just a little more.... I just need to answer him.

"No... Mommy's in a...-*sniff* hospital..she..urghh", I feel nauseous. Their peircing gazes makes me so much uncomfortable.

...calmly. I need to answer him calmly and not mess up!

"Mother is in a coma and we currently don't know when she will wake up", I whipped my head towards Daisuke in surprise. He must've noticed my discomfort and answered in my place.

"I see.. What timing..", veins popping on his face. It was obvious that he was raging mad. He then stood up and coldly say.

"Prepare rooms for them in a seperate villa. Everyone to the meeting room", then he just left with the others following suit.

Hearing the closing of the door I heaved out a heavy sigh falling on my knees. My legs giving up.

We survived.

"Y/n!", Daisuke hugged me tight. "Everything's alright now. I'm here..", I gripped his shirt tightly with trembling hands.

"Brother..."
