『Chapter Twevle』|〖FINAL〗

The night in the apartment was cold, and the city lights were sparkling like stars as usual. The busy city echoed and sirens moaned. (Y/N) sat near the balcony window with her casual date clothes: a pink blouse and skinny jeans. She wondered how her night would end, her stomach feeling heavy. "How do I look?" A deep voice asked behind (Y/N). (Y/N) turned to see Shizuo in a white collared shirt and jeans. "Shizuo, you never care about how you look. Why care now?" Shizuo blushed. "I'm meeting your parents. I need to look responsible for once." (Y/N) laughed. "Shizuo, you were on T.V. for crying out loud! They already know how irresponsible and short-tempered you are!" "That's nothing to laugh about!" Shizuo said harshly. After he noticed how fierce that sounded, he apologized. "I just don't want to show them that I'm usually not short-tempered and irresponsible. If I don't... I'll..." He gulped. (Y/N) got up and kissed Shizuo gently. "It'll be fine. My parents will love you. Just watch."

"No job, eh?" (Y/N)'s father's piercing voice said as he sat across the table from Shizuo and (Y/N). It had been only five minutes and (Y/N)'s dad had to bring up jobs. "Well, he does have a job, Dad." (Y/N) tried covering for Shizuo. "He works as a bodyguard!" (Y/N)'s father didn't seem to be impressed. His wife sat beside him with a worried smile on her face. "More sushi?" Simon asked, breaking the tension. "No thank you." (Y/N)'s mother said forcing a smile. (Y/N) looked at Simon and was suddenly confused. He looked... worried. As if he needed to say something important. "Say." (Y/N) said. "When does Russia Sushi close at?" Simon forced a smile and replied. "In about an hour." 'Great.' (Y/N) thought. The four adults sat quietly, waiting for the other to talk. But nothing came out. The silence was broken by a happy yet annoying voice.

A very dangerous voice. "Shizu-chan is here? With his girlfriend right? Well, isn't that a surprise." (Y/N) felt her heart skip a beat. "Great." She said out loud. "Today of all days." She turned to Shizuo and saw that he was as red as a cherry cough drop. "Calm down, Shizuo. You can keep it in." "I... Can't." Shizuo got up and left the private room, screaming Izaya's name. (Y/N)'s parents looked as if they had just been bossed around by a toddler. "What's going on?" (Y/N)'s dad asked. "Ooohh, nothing." (Y/N) said cheerfully as crashes were heard. "Now if you'll excuse me." She left the room but strangely felt as if her parents had followed.

What (Y/N) saw was not pretty: broken chairs were everywhere, Shizuo had a cut across his chest, and worst of all, Izaya was standing at the exit of Russia Sushi with a knife in his hand. "Oh hi (Y/N)-chan! That is your name, right?" Izaya said happily. "Damn it (Y/N) you should have stayed in that room." Shizuo said rather angrily. "Your boyfriend's right (Y/N)-chan." Izaya said smirking evilly. "Because I came to Russia Sushi to see you." (Y/N) felt her eyes widen. "Me? What do you want with me?" "Well." Izaya said shrugging. "If I can't hurt Shizuo physically, why not hurt him mentally?" His light brown eyes shined red for a moment.

(Y/N) finally understood. "You're... Oh gosh." She gulped. "Mom, Dad. Get out of here." "What is going on (Y/N)? What does this man want?" (Y/N)'s mom asked. "Oh, would you look at that! Even Mr. and Mrs. (L/N) is here to enjoy the show!" Izaya laughed. Suddenly, he charged toward (Y/N), knife extended. The world suddenly seemed to work in slow motion for (Y/N), as she noticed she would die like this. She slowly fell backward as the extended knife slowly came closer and closer...

*Shlick*

(Y/N) was on the ground, panting. She kept her eyes closed, for she didn't want to open them to see a knife through her body. But she didn't feel pain. Perhaps that was how being stabbed felt like. Then she heard a slight yelp. Then, she felt some hot liquid drip on her body. She looked up and saw Shizuo with a knife through his abdomen.

"Shi-Shizuo..." (Y/N) choked as she tried to fight the lump in her throat. She was speechless with fear. "You..." Izaya grimaced. "Great, Shizu-chan. Way to ruin my day. I really thought I was gonna kill (Y/N)-chan today." He pulled the knife from Shizuo and ran off, leaving Shizuo stumbling on (Y/N). "Shizuo..." (Y/N) said, shaking.
