Chapter 22

They sat in the living room with the trio of uninvited guests sitting across Kiyotaka and Mondo.

"So.. would you all explain why you all decided to break into our house?"

Leon and Yasuhiro let out a quiet nervous laugh while Chihiro was fidgeting with his own fingers.

"What, can't we just be good friends and check on our favorite neighbour once in a while?" Leon answered sheepishly.

Kiyotaka only replied by staring intensely at them. His stare resembled of a strict parent's (perhaps with a hint of disappointment).

"Okay, okay. Er.. Hiro, you tell him," Leon told Yasuhiro.

"What? Why me?"

"You're the one who told us about your 'prediction'," Chihiro piped up.

Yasuhiro hummed, "Yeah, fine." He paused to recall his memories, "It all started when…"

-

Yasuhiro and Leon were finishing up the second floor of their house. Yasuhiro was painting a few unpainted spots on the walls while Leon was hammering a nail into the wall so that he could hang pictures or perhaps music awards on the wall.

"Hey, you wanna know a weird prediction I got?" Yasuhiro suddenly spoke up.

"What? You just got a random prediction right now?"

"Not really." Yasuhiro squinted his eyes as he painted, "It's a prediction from a few days ago. Said that Taka's gonna get killed by an evil alien."

Leon furrowed his eyebrows. He turned to look at Yasuhiro, "...You fucking with me right now? That sounds impossible."

"I'm being serious. I swear. And don't take my predictions lightly, man. You remember that my predictions have a 30% accuracy."

Leon dropped his hammer.

"Haha! That means that aliens are at least 30% real!" Yasuhiro announced.

"No! That's not what I'm shocked about!- You sayin that Taka's in danger?!"

"Well, kinda-"

Leon approached Yasuhiro and grabbed his collar, making the taller drop his paintbrush "Why didn't you tell me before?!"

"Chill. I asked Makoto yesterday and he said that he saw Taka going to work. He's still alive and well."

"Well what if he's attacked after he went to work?!" Leon interjected.

Yasuhiro froze.

"Fuck."

"Shit! We gotta help him quick!" Leon yelled as he frantically looked for his old baseball bat.

Yasuhiro frantically looked around for a weapon he could grab. He only found the hammer Leon had dropped but it would be ineffective because the range would be small and he didn't want to risk killing- Crap. Leon's already running downstairs. He grabbed his coat and went downstairs.

He saw Leon standing in front of the doorway. What was he doing standing there?

Yasuhiro walked closer to where Leon was standing. He then saw a short man in front of Leon.

"Oh, hello, Yasuhiro!" Chihiro greeted.

"Oh, hey. Chihiro, what're you doing here?" Yasuhiro asked.

"I was asking Leon if you guys could help me move some stuff inside my house? Some of them are a bit too heavy for me alone," he said sheepishly.
