Tsumiki grunted as he tried to work on the restraints. Shit they were tight, and there was nothing close to him to help him get unbinded. Tsumiki looked up at the TV screen in the corner and he gritted his teeth angrily as he looked at the screen, his eyes widened as he saw his husband and son.

"...Chuuya..."

"Samu!" Noah chirped happily as he ran to Dazai.

"My favorite kiddo! Hi Noah." Dazai said picking him up as he kissed his cheek. Noah kissed his cheek back and smiled. Dazai put Noah down and he smiled at Chuuya before hugging him.

"Hi Chuuya."

"Hey." Chuuya smiled.

"How're you?" Dazai said sitting at his desk and switching on the audio button underneath his desk.

Chuuya sighed. "I am holding up I guess. Just me and Noah living life the best we can."

Dazai smiled. "I'm glad. How's the new house coming along?"

Chuuya looked at Dazai oddly. "How did you know I got a new house...?"

"I'm the Boss of the Port Mafia. I know just about everything."

"...Right... But you didn't call me here just to catch up. You want something from me."

Tsumiki yelled as he pulled on the chains. "Chuuya!!! HELP!! CHUUYA!!!" But it was futile. No matter how much Tsumiki screamed, Chuuya couldn't hear him. All he could do was watch painfully as the man he had come to hate so deeply lied straight to his husbands face.

"An alliance? I don't know if Boss will agree to that. He already feels you can not be trusted."

"And yet here you are talking to me." Dazai smirked.

"It's different."

"How so?"

"Because I had to keep a deal with you... If I ever wanted to keep the rest of them safe... I had to keep my part of our deal. So I am." Chuuya said annoyed.

"Hm... I suppose so. I'm not forcing you anymore though am I Chuuya?"

"Don't act like I'm not still apart of your games Dazai. I am."

"No." Dazai shook his head standing up. "You're more than that. You're my knight, my shiny and valuable knight on my chess board."

Chuuya scoffed. "Good to know where I stand."

"Samu!! I want cookies!!" He complained as he pulled on Dazai's coat.

Dazai laughed. "I'll call Odasaku to take you to the kitchen hm? Get you a few of those cookies."

"Okay!" He chirped happily.

Tsumiki cried as he looked at the screen in the small room. That was his family. His son... god was he so big... Tsumiki was robbed of sharing those moments with Chuuya. He wasn't there... and that thought alone tore him to pieces.

Twenty minutes later Dazai walked into the room, and he wheeled in a cart with food.

"Dinner."

"...You're a bastard..." Tsumiki cried.

"Ah..." Dazai said looking up at the TV screen. "You must have seen that... It must have hurt."

"Fuck you... You piece of shit!"

"My my. I wouldn't talk that way to the person who has you captive. I just might starve you."

"You won't. Because you're not done with me yet. I'm valuable to you."

Dazai hummed. "You're right. You still are. Your brother, he met with Chuuya yesterday. He has now been informed that you are dead."

Tsumiki's eyes widened.

"You have no idea what you have done... My brother and his organization will not stand for it. My brother knows I am a well trained assassin. He knows I wouldn't be easily killed."

"I'm aware of exactly what I have done. This is much bigger than you Tsumiki. If your brother finds that book this world will perish. Yokohama will cease to exist and I can't stand for that. I've worked with your brother before... during the Dragon Head Rush. I am more than aware of how treacherous your brother can be."

"And you automatically just assume I'm the same?" Tsumiki sighed. "I'm nothing like my brother... I never have been. That's why I left Russia. I did not want to be apart of his organization... I have Chuuya... I have a son... I would never put them in the middle of my brother's bullshit!"

"No. You have nothing. Not anymore. According to the world. Your friends. Chuuya... and your son you've never met. You're dead. And once this is all finished. That is what you'll truly be." He smirked.

"Fyodor-san... are you alright?" Ivan asked.

"My little brother is dead... his fiance told me this morning..."

"Tsumiki...? I'm so sorry..."

"It's okay... I know his death was not an accident. My brother is a smart man. He is well trained to handle himself. Something about this all seems fishy... Ivan. I want you to go down to Cafe Tsukikage, talk to a man named Shirakawa. Tell him I sent you. He knows who I am."

"Yes sir." Ivan said taking his leave.

"Do not worry. I will avenge you Tsumiki... I'll rid the world of all sins and build a place of solitude for you and your family..."
