I look at 'kaeru' as she leaves, my eyes full of questions that I feel like I know the answer
but I don't unfortunately
I look back at Daisuke, he is still talking.
I saw his lips moving but my mind already drain in thoughts of flashes, when I was done playing the flute
I saw rain, an unfamiliar alleyway, and Auntie
yet her eyes are the same as the ones when she called me...
"yamikumo...." I accidentally whisper out, I saw Daisuke stop talking and look at me with a confused eye
"Ah sorry...I was just thinking of something" I say, my voice oddly isn't nervous or stuttering. like what I always did when I make a mistake
"Ohh! Haha! I thought you were talking to someone! like yourself maybe?" I got confused by this statement
"My name isn't...yamikumo. It's Yuuko" I say.
"ah..." his face then morphs into a 'realization' face and then back to normal
'.....did he do that on purpose?' my gut tells me, I shake it off and finally listen to Daisuke talk
"by the way Suzuki-san...who...is she?" I ask
"Her name is kaeru rana she is the captain of Division 3"
"ah...so she is a captain after all..." I mumble,
"Suzuki-san I wanted to ask, is everyone who is wearing a bow a captain of a division?"
"not all, most will be put into a division led by the boss. sometimes the boss goes to mission too y'know? like cracking the case that we six divisions cant crack" he explained
"oh yeah, no one did tell you the system around here, so ill explain it to you" Daisuke then continue
"If there is a new case that the government deems appropriate enough to give it to us we will first pass it to the first division, if they can't crack it or fail they will pass to the second division. they pass it around in order until special division."
"if the special division can't finish the mission it will finally be passed to the boss division which we like to call the pillars division"
"...pillars? Why would the boss name it the pillars?"
"the boss didn't name it that way silly! the members just label it as that because all the members were picked by the boss from all the strongest in their division"
"if that's the case then it will be filled with captains and the bows people"
"yeah, it's mostly are, like what I already told you bows are superior than ties. there's a chance you might get promoted to bow and work under the pillar division, not as a member. as an advance gunman"
"....ah"
'that's bassicly downgrading but in the softest way possible..'
"i see...thanks" i say 'i didnt even ask but thats a usefull information i guess...'
i turn away and feeling a sudden hesdache form.
yet i ignore i have many sleepless nights because of practicing instrument, compare to this, its is nothing

the office was empty, it was high above the top floor
all he can hear is the familiar scent of rain and water trickeling down the window, he was mezmerize by the water sliding hopelessly on the glass
he didnt know why, he have the urge to look at the hat.
the dark blue hat with a white eye shape, the logo of the orginization
he doesnt want it to be like this, all he did was trying to proect her. be with her in the rain like a teen they were
the door of the office slowly open, revealing daisuke
daisuke greats him with a smile, he already know what he is doing here
"whats today reports daisuke?" the pink hair ask, trought his black mask covering his face he knows daisuke can see throught it all
"he can already use urge" the man surprise him, his eye wide in shock.
he can feel a smirk creapt in his lips–even if noone can see it–he chuckle, in amusement, or maybe in shock
"thats...amazing" the guy sinply say, he stand up from his seats and walk to the books behind his desk, going throught one by one until he met by one familiar files
'case 1' he pulled it out and flip throught it.
daisuke cant see what is in the files–heck nobody in this headquarters know what inside.
the boss protect it dearly. they must assume because its the first case, that sadly was the first case that never been solve
he stop flipping and pulled one paper that looks old, crippling and many rips was on the edges
the boss slip it on his desk, an offering for daisuke to grab it
daisuke reluctantly take the paper, never questioning the boss odd behaviour
daisuke read the paper, eyes widen for a flash.
he then put the paper down and look at the boss again
"i might know who is this 'ym.' be" daisuke say with a grin, doesnt even question about the words written on the paper.
the boss behind his mask widen his eye, then chuckle
"you always full of surprises daisuke" he say
"well, i can tell you if you do a little favour for me" daisuke say, his eyes meeting the boss gaze
how? he didnt know
"noone in this orginization ever dare to ask me such question" the boss say amuse, more amuse.
"well, i should use you as much as i can. you used me too so its only fair right?"
"you always find a way to amaze me daisuke" the boss answer instead
"fine, now tell me who is this 'ym.' is" the boss finnally give in. his gaze hardened with seriousness, looking at daisuke who have a smirk plastered on his face

i enter the division 1 without losing my way on the way here.
'is today my lucky day?' i think happily.
i look around not seeing any familiar faces, panic washes over me
"ah...your yuuko ito right?" i turn around seeing a guy with light brown hair with vitiligo.
"ah...yes.. thats me" i say raising my hand abit
he looks at me for abit before forming a soft smile
"the boss called you, do you know where is it?" he say, more softly than before
"no...um... can you show–i mean like lead the way?" i stutters 'dang it why do i suddenly have to meet the boss! i thought it was my lucky day!'
"yup! thats fine!" he walk me to the boss office
i didnt even relizes there was an elivator, heck even a second floor!
'i guess its been a long time since i came out...wait didnt i just live in here for 3 days in here? why does it feel so....long tho' i think to myself
the elivator than open revealing only one hall way with 4 doors on the side and at the end was a door writen 'meeting room'
he open the doors to me–which made me wanna scoff– as he sent a quick mouth of 'goodluck' i dont know why tho.
when i enter and turn around the door already close
'huh..weird' i look infront again, noone was there
the table was long and kinda wide with 11 chairs one of them is in the very corner.
i look at them in awe, they look quite expensive
there were plants on the very corner, its almost look like an office meeting yet more calming because theyre is more books and papers scatter.
even if it looks unclean it feels save somehow
i notice a door behind the seats, its unnamed.
'i guess its the office door?' i ask to myself
i slowly walk to the door hesitate abit before finnally opening it.
i was met by a person with pink hair and a dark blue hat with a matching hood.
his face covered in black and his hand is wearing a black glove
he was standing and was reading a file
he close it slowly and turn his head to me already noticing my presence
"ill get to the part, crongrats on your first mission"
