As he walked out of the bathroom into the only other room in the apartment, his eyes wandered but then focused on a small frame lying on the floor. He grabbed the frame and then sat on a solitary chair in the middle of the room, facing away from the window and the laid out futon.
"Ma, I hope I can become some you can be proud of. Ma..."
Tears swelled up in his eyes.
"Ma, what will happen to me?"
Unable to look into the frame anymore, he stared at the wall in front. Books sprawled across the floor in front and a large character was written on the wall.
Crack!
When Damien looked at the wall, an unbearable hatred gave him a rush and the glass on the frame cracked. Blood trickled and dripped slowly from the fist that held onto the frame.
"I must live on!"
The fist opened and the frame fell, along with its contents, onto the floor.
Damien got up and started packing a backpack. One pc, two sets of clothes and a diary. A folder with all the important papers. He carefully took a small picture out from the broken frame and folded it into his wallet.
'Nothing else.'
It was expected. After all, there was barely any furniture in the room.
'Oh yes. Toothbrush. Almost forgot. I need to save money.'
Splatter!
He shook off the blood on his hand and opened the front door.
"Sayonara."
He mumbled softly before closing the door and turning the key.
Click!
Footsteps receded from the hall and the entire floor soon submerged into silence.
This silence would not be broken for a couple of days. On the fourth, however, there was an unwanted visitor who banged away at the door. When all he received was silence in return, the boy left with a huff.
"I knew it! Only that bastard could have done it! I am getting those skill books for myself!"
Later that day, two men in black along with the Shirasaki head was also there. The gravity-defying beard was shaking in excitement.
"Move."
The men in black gave way to the family head.
He placed his hand on the door. After feeling its texture for a second, he lightly tapped on it.
Crack! Crumble!
The entire wooden door crumbled on the floor.
The two men were astounded!
'The perfect law of Annihilation! The boss was an absolute monster!'
The family head rushed in.
An empty room greeted them. Few books lay here and there. The sun was setting. Its red-golden rays settled on the wall opposite the window.
An immense pressure suddenly crashed upon the apartment, The two men couldn't even lift their heads. The old man's fists were shaking in anger.
"Hahaha! Very well! If it's death you seek, ye shall have it! I will personally deliver it to YOU!!!"
One of the men weakly said, "Boss, please calm down."
When he looked at the wall opposite the window, he felt infuriated and shouted without caring about the consequences.
"SHIROGANE!!!"
Blood started flowing out of the orifices of the two men in tow.
Kuma suddenly had an ominous feeling while pondering about his destination and hiccuped sharply.
