"Ok." Akutagawa got up and walked out. "Pull yourself together. I need to talk to Kyouka. She and Motojirou were sent to bomb the subway train the tiger was on. She may need Demon Snow for assistance." He shut the door.

You take several deep breaths and hit yourself a couple of times. "Ok." You breathed. "I have paperwork to do don't I?"
You get up and sit at your desk. When you start typing, a knock came from the door. Higuchi entered and glared at you.

"Y/N-San." She greeted and closed the door. You ignore her and continue typing up some reports.

Higuchi gave you a confused look. "You aren't going to ask why I'm here?"

You shrug, assuming it's something about giving Akutagawa some papers or asking him a question.

"Well I need Akutagawa. Where is he?"

You shrug again.

"The bathroom?"

You shook your head.

"With Chuuya?"

No.

"The boss?"

Wrong.

"Can't you just tell me? What's wrong with talking to people!? Your giving Akutagawa-Senpai a bad reputation. People think he did something to you so you wouldn't talk to others! So stop with the act and speak to some people and regain Senpai's reputation already! Get off your lazy butt and prove Senpai had nothing to do with you being so weird!"

You ignored half of her "speech" and continued typing.

"Then I guess you won't care if I look through his stuff?"

You stiffen and jump out of your chair. She glares at you. "Are you gonna stop me or something? So you do love Akutagawa-Senpai?"

You jump at her and turn into your wolf in midair. She displayed a look of surprise as you landed on top of her. You growl softly when the door opens yet again. Mori and Elise walked in.

"Erm...Y/N-Chan? Why are you on top of Higuchi-Kun?"

You turn back to your human form and climbed off of Higuchi. You put your hands back into your jacket pocket and handed Elise a piece of candy.

"Ahhh!! Thank you Y/N-Chan!"

You smile and pet her neat hair out of her face.

"Elise-Chan! Don't take candy from employees who could poison them!!" Mori took the candy and looked at it carefully.
You turn your back on him.

"S-sir! Did you need my assistance?" Higuchi stood at full posture and saluted the boss.

"Pfft. Suck up." You mumble.

"Actually, I need Y/N-Chan."

"Whaa!?" You and Higuchi say simultaneously.

"Akutagawa needs you in the torture room and when he's done with you, report to my office." Mori instructed.

You put two fingers on your forehead and walked out. "Don't let Higuchi in the office." You say to yourself but loud enough so Mori could hear.

"Hm. Alright." Mori said, confused.

You walk away from them and go down the stairs to the torture room.

Akutagawa was still on the phone with Kyouka. You stand next to him. He sat down and looked frustrated with her.

"Demon Snow, kill anyone who interferes. Protect the bomb with your life." He commanded.

You looked across the room at Dazai's face. He had his eyes closed. "Dazai's still awake?"

Akutagawa nodded. "You wanna talk to him?" He asked and pulled the phone away from him.

"Are you upset with Kyouka or something?"

"I'm upset with who she's dealing with."

"Were-tiger?"

"Sadly." He pulled the phone closer as if to listen closer to what was happening.

Your eyes don't leave him.

"Akutagawa."

He looks up and you realize you said that out loud.

"You work to hard. Just take a day off tomorrow! Geez is it that big a deal to take a break sometimes. You shouldn't work as hard as you do without a break. It's not healthy you know!"

"What are you? The mom I never had? Shut up and leave me alone."

You sit next to him and put your head on his shoulder. "Jerk."

"Get off!" He yelled, not pushing you away.

You close your eyes. "But your so comfy."

Then he gently pushed your head away. "Kyouka. I see you pressed it. Die with the passengers."

"What did you tell her?" You asked.

He pulled the phone away. "She must die with the passengers. What's wrong with that?"

You punch his jaw as hard as you can.

"Tch. You wanna fight, Y/N? Bring it."

"She's only fourteen! She doesn't deserve to die yet!"

He didn't respond.

About seven years ago when you, Akutagawa, and Gin joined, they sent all of you on a death mission. The three of you only lived by getting so mad, you slaughtered everyone there. When Dazai found you again, he was stunned with your strength. That's why Akutagawa always wanted to become strong. So he could protect you and Gin, and he wanted to prove himself to Dazai.

"They sent us on tons of suicide missions without Dazai knowing! You said you'd never ever send anyone on a suicide mission. What your going to break your word? Idiotic hypocrite! You'd better hope she lives or else I'm going to kill you!"

He held up the phone again. Looking disappointed, he hung up the phone and stood up.

"No matter how powerful, a pawn is just a pawn." He looked up as Dazai raised his head. Akutagawa seemed to be ignoring you and that made you mad.

"So, Dazai. Are you a pawn in the masters game, or a master playing the game?"

Dazai met your eyes, then looked to Akutagawa. He smiled.
