~~~Chapitre 24 - Destiny~~~
"The Neverwhere ?" Yuto quoted with disbelief.
"Yes." The man nodded his head down, all the while showing his toothy smile.
Yuto shook his head. "No, no, no. You can't be. For as long as I remember, The Neverwhere had existed since long time ago. I expected someone with white hair-"
"Well, my hair is white." Interrupted the man.
"It's not like that !" Yuto snapped. "I mean, The Neverwhere should looked older ! And wiser ! Not some random gothic boy with an idol face !"
"You think I have an idol face ? Aww~ I'm flattered~" The man giggled, just in time as the waiter returned and placed down their orders.
"Stop confusing the guy, Yuu-chan." The waiter commented.
The man who claimed himself to be The Neverwhere just pouted at the waiter's retreating figure.
"Well, returning to your doubts, I believe I have mentioned this to you, Nakajima-kun, that you should not judge a person through their appearances. The Neverwhere had always been there since long indeed, but no one ever said that it was always the same person." The man stated calmly as he sipped into his drink.
"You mean, there are more than one Neverwhere ?"
The man shrugged. "Before we go that far, I would like to give you an offer, Nakajima-kun."
"What is that ?" Yuto pierced his eyes carefully.
The way the man smiled at Yuto's question sent shivers through the boy's back, and it made him almost regretted his decision to come along with this eccentric guy.
"Follow me. Be my successor as the next generation of The Neverwhere."
Yuto widened his eyes in disbelief, mouth agape as he was at lost of words.
"You're in a huge pinch situation, Nakajima-kun. It's either you accept my offer and erase your very existence from those around you, or let the Organization decided your fate. You have no room to bargain in this, Nakajima-kun."

"Isn't it great that you could be discharged tomorrow, Yamada-kun ?"
Ryosuke squirted his face in disgust as he pulled the blanket higher.
"Stop sweet-talking me. It's disgusting."
The man chuckled as he wrote down some notes on Ryosuke's file.
"But seriously. It was relieving to have our ace back in the team."
"Hnn." Ryosuke turned his head away, refusing to continue the conversation.
Valentine sighed as he closed the file and put back the pen inside his pocket. "I have news. Concerning Nakajima-kun's status in the Organization."
"What about him ?" Ryosuke asked, trying to be as nonchalant as possible, but failed considerably.
The man smiled as he walked closer and checked on Ryosuke's drip. "I have to stick to the rules, no matter what. So- as expected, Nakajima-kun has to-"
"Be banished from the Organization." Ryosuke finished his words. "And then ?"
"You knew the drill, boy."
A deep sigh came out from Ryosuke's mouth as he leaned deeper into his bed. He knew this would be coming.
"Yeah, I know."
***
"You will what ?"
Yuto smiled before resuming his lunch leisurely as if nothing happened.
"You heard me, Chii."
"But-" The smaller guy then sighed and slumped down in defeat. "If that's what you think the best then."
"Thank you, Chii. For everything." Yuto smiled again. Sadly, yet serenely.
"Yuto-kun." Chinen bit his lower lip, unable to speak more. "I, I will always pray for your safety."
Yoto stopped what he was doing and looking into the smaller guy's eyes meaningfully. "I might be regretting this later. Or who knows, I might have regretted it already. But it's better, rather than having someone I cared about take my life and live the rest of his life in guilt."
Chinen looked down, trying to suppress his tears. "How I wish that you're never a part of that world. If so, than none of these would have happened."
"But if so, than I won't be able to meet you, or Yama-chan." Yuto commented softly. "This is my destiny, Chii. And I don't want to run away from it anymore."
