AN: I know it was logical that the ending had to be that way, but I was stilll sad. Yanagisawa deserved much worse then he got, and Korosensei's/Aguri's ending was sad. He was an assassin; but he was still more morally superior to Y, I think...
Trigger warnings: Violence
He was easily able to make out the landscape below him, thanks to his advanced vision, using it as a beacon to help pinpoint his location. He wasn't going too fast; definitely below his top speed, as he wanted to be able to find her house, knowing that if he went fully at Mach 20 he would probably pass the place. He settled on a medium pace, the breeze flowing past his circular head as he flew through the night sky. The Reaper could easily see the people and buildings below him, keeping any eyes out for someone he recognized. It's not like the streets were crowded full of people, since it was beginning to get late; already he could see the crescent moon rising slowly in the sky. He doubted he would find her that easily; this was a city full of people, small though it was, yet he had confidence in his new body. It had much superior senses to his old one; his ears, nose and eyes being able to see, hear and smell much better than they could before. Along with his trained perception from being an assassin, nothing could escape his notice. So it was no surprise he heard a soft, familiar voice curse below him, his eyes easily spotting the long, black haired girl.
Hmm...Isn't that Aguri-san's sister? He thought, his curiosity compelling him to fly a bit lower and see what was going on. Before, when he was human, he might not have given her a second thought; now however he understood the folly of his previous way of thinking. One needs to understand people in order to live on this wide world, and only by 'looking' at them can we truly see them for the first time. That was the lesson that Aguri had taught him through the whole year he had been stuck in his cell. He truly appreciated her for that, a warm sensation spreading through his body at that moment. Luckily, it wasn't enough to make his skin turn bright pink, though he did feel his face blush slightly at the thought of the teacher and her smile. No...I have to calm down. Why do I keep doing this? Ever since my body started to change, I've been more...open with my emotions than usual. This will take more time to get used to than having tentacles...The Reaper jokes with himself, considering whether to fly down and greet the teen. What he hears next however, only makes him more curious.
"Sis...This isn't like you. Why won't you pick up?" Akari mutters, staring dejectedly at her cell phone. He could hear ringing of the phone as it tries to reach said person, only for her to huff as he heard the sound of their voicemail going off. He quickly memorized the number before checking to make sure no one else was around; thankfully the place was sparse and he noticed few people on the streets. He figured it would be fine to show himself; most people would probably not pay attention to him, thinking that he was an illusion or something similar. The Reaper easily touched down near that location, being careful to hide himself a bit so he wouldn't startle the poor girl. He was a bit hesitant, not sure how the girl would react to seeing him like that, his two pronged tentacle reaching out to gently tap the teen's shoulder. She jumps a bit, obviously startled from the contact, turning her head to look behind her though her expression changes from fear to confusion as her fingers touch the appendage.
"...What the...?" She mutters, her eyes following the appendage to its source; the Reaper only giving her a soft smile in response, though his head was beading with nervous sweat. He easily withdrew the tentacle from her shoulder, the appendage slipping back into place beneath his cloak, before he let out a nervous cough.
"Good evening, Akari-chan...eerm...You seem upset; is something troubling you?" She only stares at the creature before her in complete shock, her eyes roving over his entire body for a couple seconds. Recognition dawns on her a moment after, the girl taking a couple steps toward the large being.
"...You...You're the guy from earlier today..." Akari states breathlessly, her hands falling to her sides as she stares at him with her mouth agape. The Reaper can only give her a small shrug in response, patiently waiting for her to recover as she speaks again.
"...I guess I do. See, Aguri and I had gotten into a bit of a disagreement...nothing too big really, but now she won't answer her phone. I don't think I made her angry; it was mainly myself who was mad. This isn't like her at all...I'm worried." He listens to her words attentively, crossing his long arms over the other and nodding before taking a few steps towards the girl.
"I see...Well, I was on my way to go see her, anyway..." He mutters, intertwining his tentacles like they were fingers. She found this interesting; the two seemed to have some sort of a relationship, going by what her sister said...Wait, could he be the guy she was talking about? Akari thinks, recalling their previous conversation a few hours prior. Wow. She hadn't expected this...and going by what he was saying, he wanted to meet her sister. At night. Alone. She felt her face flush at the thought, not really judging her sister; she was just worried about her. Yanagisawa seemed like a good guy too, at first but then she began to see through his facade. What if this...guy was the same? She had to protect her sister. The girl confidently stalks up to the tentacled creature, who only gave her a blank stare in response, his face still it's usual yellow. She points her finger in his face, her eyes narrowing with a faked anger, the Reaper only leaning backward a bit to further the distance between them.
"You better not do anything to make her sad, got it?"
"Eh? Of course not! Aguri-san is precious to me, I'll have you know!" The Reaper triumphantly states, his smile growing even wider than usual. Akari lets out a small chuckle, though she was still cautious of the guy. Though, she figured, maybe he could help her out. If he truly cared for Aguri like he said he did...
"...I'm worried she's in trouble. I was going to go check on her as well. How about we just go together? It's only a fifteen minute walk from here." She suggested, the circular headed creature nodding at her idea, eagerly grabbing her by the wrist with his tentacled hand and pulling her towards him. She squeaks a bit at the contact, her face turning a bit pink as she shouts at him.
"W-what are you doing!?" He carefully wraps his tentacles around her body, being mindful to not touch any private areas. He can only stare down at the girl with what looks like a smug expression, his eyes narrowing a bit.
"Don't worry; I won't fly as fast as I usually do. I won't let you fall; I promise. Ah..." He stops speaking, his face turning white for a moment as he thinks.
"We should probably check at other places where Aguri-san likes to hang out. Do you know of any she might frequently go to, Akari-chan?" The teen thinks for a moment, remembering places she and her sister used to frequent in the small town before she had her second job. Thanks to that, they hardly had any time to spend together and Aguri was always worn out when she saw her. Also, they might as well check out her fiancé's house; she didn't quite trust that man.
"Yeah, I'll tell you on the way...You know, you seem to know my name but I never got yours...errr..." She comments, the octopus putting one of his extra tentacles to his chin in thought.
"Name, huh? I don't really have one..." His answer made her look up at him, her face incredulous as she responded.
"No way...You really don't have one? That's..." That's kind of sad...She thought, emphasizing with the creature. She felt his arms grip her a bit tighter, her feet slowly being lifted off of the ground.
"That's not important right now. We should get going!" He answers, tilting his body a bit as he propels himself through the night sky, Akari tightly gripping his large tentacled arms...
"Thank you for your services..." Yanagisawa remarked, making sure to slip a yen note of considerable sum in with the tip so that the driver could see it. The man nodded, revving up the engine and offering a quiet farewell before driving off into the night. The scientist glared at the woman in his grasp, who was frozen in shock, her face no longer covered in blood because of a tissue stuck in her nose, her small bag containing her phone and other things still in her hand. She knew that her last chance to escape had just left with that car; not the she had had many opportunities to do otherwise while inside the car...but the option was still there. Now she was stuck, with him, the pair of them walking briskly up to his house. She had thought of moving in with him, seeing as it always taken her so long to get from the school to her apartment and then to the labs. Back when her engagement to this man seemed feasible; now it was more like a nightmare she couldn't escape. She felt a little defeated because of her own situation, but the thought that she had managed to help her real love escape his torment put her mind at ease. Slightly. She wasn't naive enough to expect someone would come rescue her now, of all times. So she quietly let her fiancé release his grip on her wrist, falling into a quiet step behind him as he fiddled with the keys to his home. The door opens with a loud clank, the noise seeming to reverberate in her ears as Aguri walks inside the darkened entryway.
"What are you standing around for? Come here!" He barks, the bright shine of the lights coming on making her a bit stunned after being the dark for so long. She blinks a few times, attempting to right herself, before gingerly moving near her fiancé. The man only gave her a strong glare, his temper seeming to have calmed somewhat, though she knew this didn't mean much. He was quick to switch his moods on the fly, a trait she had observed numerous times while working for him and being around him the past couple years. What usually triggers his 'episodes' was when he was disobeyed or talked back to by whom he considered his lessers. Which was nearly everyone but him, now that she came to think about it. He really was a conceited person. Though because of his status as the son of the richest company owner in the world, and his own scientific genius, not many people would dare to question him. Yanagisawa's voice was still it's usual hard tone, his words harsh as she feels his hand grip her shoulder tightly.
"...You need to learn to respect me. I am your husband, by all rights! I own you." He said as he lead her across the small entryway, nearly pushing her along. He was sort of right; as long as her family was financially indebted to him because of their engagement, Aguri was his. Not that she would take it lying down, but she did not want to ruin the future for her sister, whom she loved so much. Without that money, Akari would not have a suitable back up plan if her dream of becoming a famous actress fell through. She was doing well so far; Aguri had seen her sister in a bunch of small dramas and couple commercials, but she had yet to make her big debut. So soon after that however, Akari had taken a break from acting. She was concerned for her younger sister; why had she decided to do so? The girl probably needed a break from the stress of her career, and the older sister did not blame her. She didn't want to put any more pressure on the young teen than their parents already were; she was surely feeling worn down enough with their constant expectations for her.
"...I am not one of your experiments; do not treat me like one. I had hoped this would work, but you don't seem to want to make it work, Yanagisawa. All you've done is belittle me; anything to show that I will never be as good as you. On the outside you hide it quite well; no one would think otherwise. I'm tired of this treatment; I want you to respect me..." Aguri states strongly, her black eyes determined as she stared at the man next to her. Yanagisawa only smiles, his small eyes narrowing as he responds.
"Respect you? We aren't even on the same level...I am a genius, and you, just a mediocre school teacher who I happened to choose because she was expendable. Why should I care about your feelings? You ruined the most important day of my life!" He yells out, causing her to flinch at the proximity of his voice, her hand slipping out of his grip. So that's how he sees me. Well, Mom, Dad, I tried to make it work...I'm sorry, Akari...I can't put up with this anymore. She thinks, her heart pounding in her chest as she turns away from the man and starts to walk. She feels his hand on her shoulder once more, his voice still carrying that undercurrent of anger.
"You want to leave me? That is a mistake; I am one of the most powerful men in the world! You aren't anything without me, you understand?" Aguri only gave him a small smile, carefully grabbing his hand and pushing it off her. It falls limply to his side, his face no longer angry and instead one of shock; she felt she could see the hints of fear and sadness in his face. That wasn't enough to sway her however, her heart pounding in her throat as she walked away from the man, her hand on the open doorway.
"I am something. A teacher whose students depend on her. That's something you could never take away, Yanagisawa-san."
She walked off into the darkness, not looking back.
A/N: Honestly, this was my original idea; wasn't sure about it though. Like this ch much better now.
