"Tell me you have a plan?" the uncle whispered to Yohan with a little anger when the host declare that the fragment belongs to number 7 "We can't just give it up like this"
"I won't!" Yohan said looking at Rain
"4th...?" The uncle was little frustrated and Yohan didn't even bother to reply, he saw him looking at the red-circle heir and frown, but what he can do now? What's done is done, and all he can do now is following his orders.
the auction ended, and the guests in there start standing to leave , Rain stands and Yohan stands with him at the same time and since the two tables were next to each other, the two now were facing each other.
Yohan put his hands on his pockets, nodded while saying a "congratulation" and the red-circle heir had this smirk of victory replying with a full confident
"Well, it isn't something that important anyways"
Yohan knew he was just doing it for fun, he doesn't even know about that fragment he just bought "why you bought it then?"
"Emm...the price was 50millions, you didn't go with 100 or 500 you went straight up to 1 billion which means..." Rain steps closer, and more like whispered but it was loud for Yohan to hear but not the others around "you tried to tell everyone here that fragment is for the Hellhounds so no one will dare to take it neither now or in the future? was it a declaration of war to who ever dares?"
Yohan did bite his lower lip, wanting to punch that face no doubt "Yet you bought it"
"Why didn't you?" Rain look around and acted like he is thinking of a reason "are you broke? Or maybe your father didn't give you that much money? You could have asked your master—aa I mean uncle!"
"You d-" The uncle behind hears that and was about to flame but Yohan stopped him before he even say a full word
"Just be straight forward" Yohan said as it is obvious "even if I went for a trillion you would add more, and I don't like to play an infinite game"
"So you are not just fast, but little smart too!"
The two got interrupted by a servant from the cruise who came to ask for Rain "sir, can you come with me?"
Rain nodded to the servant but looked back at Yohan, he got this face full of 'I got what you want, now I shall go claim it' having a fine smirk on his face "I will excuse myself then" he said before he left with the servant.
"Fourth?" his uncle said when Rain left "what should we do??"
Yohan didn't reply at all, he took his phone and walked to the cruise surface, texting someone, he stands and turn to look at his surroundings, seeing the city port is still half an hour or more away, he waited...after a 5 minutes he took his phone again "what?" he said the word with a confused tone and his uncle knew something isn't right "fourth...?"
"Fuck it..." Yohan look at his uncle "stay away from the edges"
After that sentence he said, a voice heard on the open air, a very familiar voice for those who knows in weapons, In the silent of that night inside the dark water a whistle of missiles heard and an explosions start to happen in some corner of that cruise,
"DAMN IT" the uncle said immediately grabbing Yohan's arm, because the cruise was shaking hardly "stay close!"
Now the screams were everywhere, the mess was huge, everyone bumping into each-other, not caring of anyone they made fall because fear is the worst in a time of making decision to save your life! And those who always had guards around protecting them are not the best example to do things right in situations like these!
The missiles were targeting mostly the corners and the under of the cruise making it now little tilted to the side.
--- There he is...---
Yohan whose eyes were now on Rain who show up at the surface, and was searching like a crazy for someone, he saw him running to a direction helping a man who falls in his way, and continue all the way to Yuri who probably slides to the edge with the tilted of the cruise.
Yohan loses his uncle grab and again ignoring his uncle calls, he was about to walk to the two direction when another missile hits the edge near the two making the people scared and screaming around them pushing each-other and as a result, Rain was cuddling Yuri scared she gets hurts, walking backwards and not seeing that there was a hole on the corner he was going to... ---The fragment...--- Yohan walks doubtfully toward the two...
------//
Rain who felt there is nothing to put his feet on, immediately pushed Yuri away from him to the inside of the cruise hoping she won't fall with him, he heard her screaming his name, seeing her wanting to grab his hand to not fall and she did and hardly stayed balanced while he was hanging from the broken cruise part
"Yuri..."
"SHUT UP" Yuri yelled seeing her hand slipping and he was heavy for her with all the mess around and the cruise shaking to that side, she who didn't want to let go start slipping to the side too.
"YURI LET GO" Rain yells at her, feeling like it is too late because she was about to fall, yet someone grabbed her and Rain didn't believe his eyes, is he really caring about Yuri? Yet he was glad someone cares to help even if it is his enemy,
Yohan who have his doubts with helping or not, since he doesn't know if he actually had the fragment or it is the best to let him fall and take the fragment if it still in the cruise, unconsciously runs seeing the girl named Yuri about to slide too and grabbed her making sure she won't fall, but didn't expect that she would let Rain slip from her hands too soon! Or maybe he falls intentionally? --- I wish he doesn't have the fragment! or else he did get away so easily and I will fail to get it! ---
"RAAAAIN!" Yuri screamed wanting to jump after him but Yohan stopped her
"Don't! He can swim his way out!"
"NO, HE CAN'T SWIM! LET ME GO"
Yohan heard remembering his words at the club --- the fuck! How he can't swim? is there any Mafia heir that can't swim? Is this a joke? --- "it is dark! You can't see where he is anyway!" Yohan spoke with logic since it is the middle of the night even with the fire from the explosions it isn't enough to see deep down if he is drowning --- what if the fragment is with him? --- "fuck this" Yohan said standing and taking off his suit jacket, he was about to jump but his uncle grabbed him aggressively from his arm
"WHAT THE HELL YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING?"
Yohan look at him like it is obvious, --- if he had it I will take it and let him drown --- but he can't say that loud since the girl is there!
"YOUR LIFE IS WAY MORE IMPORTANT"
Yohan take his uncle arm off aggressively and not waiting, he jumps in the dark deep water
-------------------//
Little before
------------------//
(Is he going to drown?)
.
(Is this his end?)
.
.
Those were Rain thoughts, he knows the basics of swimming, but deep down he is scared, he fears the huge amount of water that stops their breathing, and how much he can hold his breath? 1 minutes? Maybe 2 as max?
But what scares his the most is even if you are that good swimmer at a certain point the gravity starts to do it job, and as much as he tried to go up, he do feel like he goes down, his energy start to drain, not because of how tired he is no, but because of the idea of the minutes he can hold his breathing in, is about to end!
Everything seems dark! He can't even see his own hands in front of him now trying to get their way out to the surface, he tried and tried but it gets darker and darker...
"egh!"
Oh no! His lung had failed him, he can't hold it anymore and he start to panic but decide to close his eyes and accept his painful slow death.
.
A touch...
.
.
(what is this)
.
He opened his eyes immediately and he can swear he saw a red point in that darkness fading away, but that touch...he felt that touch around his both ears, like someone holding his face with both hands, but then...another touch was on his lips...he got a little surprised for a second but that pressing on his mouth was giving him an amount of oxygen.
And he gladly accepted it.
