Chapter Text

As Koganegawa sat on the subway seat he couldn’t help but to think of what had happened in the last week. He really thought he was going insane because of it or maybe it was because of his father death or the fact that his mom was in jail. He really could muster up the energy to talk, eat, or even drink water. The experience of seeing your life fall apart even more is something that you really can’t forget. He started to look back in his memories to see what went wrong that day.

 

————————————————————————

“I’m sorry for all the pain I’m about to cause everyone but this needs to happen just for everyone to reach their happy ending. I will bring those who have died, which is almost everyone but there are certain people. Those people will be the exact people who will bring you guys to your happy ending. I’m so sorry guys.” Said a mysterious voice that had a sound of pain in it.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Koganegawa shot up from his bed and started to look around to see where the source of the sound came from. When he didn’t see anything he was about to get out of bed to get ready for work, but he heard a loud crash coming from down stairs. All Koganegawa could do is stare at his door in which he waited for his father to break down and beat the absolute sh*t out of him but it didn’t happen. After a while of the shouting, he heard the front door being slammed closed rather loud than usual. He waited a while before getting out of bed to get ready for his job. He put a black turtleneck with a darkish gray hoodie that stops just at his wrist which shows the end of the turtle neck sleeves.

As he walked down the stairs he found his mom passed out on the couch with alcohol in her hand. He made his way to the kitchen and stopped right in front of the frigid and opened it. He took out rice, eggs, bacon, curry and had started to cook it for his mom to wake up and at least eat something before drinking again. When he finished cooking her food, he made a quick note telling her to eat and to at least take it easy with drinking. He made his way to the door and grabbed his black ballet flats with black ribbons. As he tied the ribbon together he made sure to tie them tightly so his shoes don’t fall off.

He opened the door quietly so his mother wouldn't wake up and ask him where he was going out so early. When he got outside he made his way to the subway, so he could go to Tokyo since that is where his job is located. As he enters his subway and takes he can’t help but to think of the day in which his family was normal. He was only a 1st year in Date Tech High and thanks to his parents he had to drop out of school. His dad had always been an asshole but never hit them before. He started to hit them because his mom never knew what was the right thing to do. Koganegawa knew that wasn’t an excuse for him to hurt both Koganegawa and his mother. Koganegawa also knew his dad was influenced by alcohol since his dad is a fucking drunken bitch. Koganegawa always wonder why his mother never left father, maybe it was complicated. Koganegawa always knew that there had to be a reason on why his mother left his fathe, but Koganegawa had to make sure that there is enough money to feed his family. He really had started to hate his parents for putting him through this at the mere age of sixteen. His parents weren’t the best but they wouldn’t beat him back then. Now they do beat him and they do it really bad. He couldn’t really open his eyes when he had been punched multiple times by his dad. He always wore makeup to cover it up. When the subway stopped Koganegawa made his way to the building that was right in the middle of Tokyo and was controlled by a certain mafia. Koganegawa had always hated working there since it was the mafia in which his parents are in debt. He was known as the prostitute of the company since he was good at sex or whatever. He was taken there against his will and was abused because of the debt but Koganegawa knew how to deal with it. It’s not like it was new to him either way. He had always done the information section since it was easy to seduce someone. Koganegawa had to just find what the person likes and make it into reality for them. He had to act vulnerable , innocent, sweet, and sometimes being coy can help. He had to initiate touch such as a deep kiss or just touch the person. Koganegawa also had to make the person feel like they matter more than anything in the world which cause them to get attached. He would then sleep with them which is why they called him a prostitute in the mafia. He knew what to do sexually to get information. Koganegawa never wanted to do this he was only doing this because they had threaten to kill his parents. Koganegawa was also trained as an assassin which sucks because he can’t sleep that well some night, but he sucks it up and moves on. He knew when to be on high alert but he sometimes doesn’t use it because he wanted to …495 As Koganegawa made his way out of the building after a long day of work he quickly made his way to the subway. He made his way to the cashier to get a ticket back home since he lived far from here. As Koganegawa wait for the subway a group of kids passed him. He thinks he remembers a few of them. Maybe from the last summer volleyball training Camp. That was right since he saw Osamu Miya, Iwaizumi Hajime, and Tendou Satori. They were very well known volleyball players.

Tendou known for his guesses in blocking the volleyball on the court, Osamu one of the tricky players on the court with his twin brother Atsumu, and lastly the best playing Ace, Iwaizumi. Tendou Satori who always has his hair spiked up has his hair down and it looks rather good on him since it makes him look rather attractive. He was wearing a button up shirt that was tucked in his pants he was also wearing a black turtleneck, he’s wearing black pants which does make his looks even better. Osamu Miya is wearing a black turtleneck too with a brown coat and black pants with a black belt. Iwaizumi has his hair down and he is wearing a gray hoodie with a light-dark sky blue Jean jacket on. They seem to be hanging out since they are wearing interesting clothes. Koganegawa really honestly thought that they wouldn’t match like a trio if they met, but he guesses wrong on that idea. They do make a great trio, since they playfully fight each other and send playful threat messages.

Koganegawa finds it adorable that they all become friends, but he really wants to know the reason behind their gathering. It isn’t any of his business so he decided to stay quiet since talking would get him in trouble because he was spying on them. As the subway appeared he entered it and sat down on a seat. All he had to do now was sit in his seat for one hour and thirty-nine minutes for his stop to come. After an hour and thirty minutes the bullet train stopped and Tendou stepped out as did the others. Koganegawa was asking himself why would Iwaizumi and Osamu step out… Maybe it was a sleepover?

After they left Koganegawa had to wait nine more minutes for his stop. When the bullet train came to a stop he stepped out of the train and made his way home. He had to walk through the crowds which flooded the streets. It was like traffic and it was annoying. When he finally escaped that traffic he continued his way home. By the time he got to his front door it was already eight at night. Koganegawa opened the door and made his way to his room and collapsed onto his bed to take a well deserved nap. Koganegawa’s mother burst down his door and she said, “Koganegawa, dear I’m going to need you to stay in your room and don’t come out at all.” As she had said that she walked out the door. It felt like hours as Koganegawa just stayed seated on his desk chair. He was about to go back to work when he heard loud thuds and hitting. Koganegawa ran to open his door and when he opened it he saw his mother getting beaten up by his father. Koganegawa’s mother had a knife in her hands and had tried to stab his father and Koganegawa had made his way to stop the fight. His father was bleeding badly and his mother was also bleeding too. “Koganegawa! I told you to stay in your room!” Yelled out his mother. Koganegawa father turned towards him and punched him in the stomach and face. He started to kick and scream at Koganegawa, hard. “You fucking mistake! Why are you so useless! Why can’t you be a son that I have always wanted! Why can’t you be perfect! Fucking waste of space, money, and energy!” Was all he could hear as his father kept yelling. After that everything felt like blur and Koganegawa couldn’t move, he couldn’t breathe, why was there blood everywhere now? What was going on was his mother and father ok? “Koganegawa! He honey everything is going to be ok and I’m so sorry this happened but remember this! Remember this! What “I” did was self defense in order to save me and you! Ok honey?” Was something he could hear his mother mutter. That day his mother was arrested and put behind bars. Koganegawa was sent to live with his aunt and uncle which were not much better than father and mother. They would take their anger out on Koganegawa because he looked like his mother and father. Koganegawa had to deal with it everyday and not just that he also had to deal with things at work and it was annoying. There were always reports outside his door and it’s a pain to walk through them, since they push and ask you question on what happen on the day in which he lost your father and mother had to be put in jail. As Koganegawa was in his thoughts the cart that he was in started to shake violently which caused everyone in it to crash onto the floor. They all looked around to see if anything was wrong many people mumbled, “Is it a terrorist attack? Was there a war going on? What the fuck is going on.”

There was another rumble which caused the lights to go off on their cart. Everyone looked around but there was nothing to see. Two men got up and tried to open the door with the help of other older men. As they did that there was a light that started to shine from the corner from his eye. Everyone looked there to see a man with white hair and red eyes with a black suit on. The man was looking around as he tried to calm his laughter. Everyone looked at one another before a light blue screen popped up in front of them. It seemed to be a menu since it shows the kind of ability they will get and also what their stats are at. Koganegawa really started to freak out since today was supposed to be his last…

————————————————————————

He looked around to see that everyone had the same expression as him. They were all looking bewildered at the fact that this thing popped up showing everything about their characters. He was really getting scared and started to crying but kept his face down so no one could see him. As he was crying he could hear footsteps coming close to his direction. When the footsteps stopped he could feel like someone was right in front of him.

Koganegawa felt a tough hand grab his chin lightly like he was glass and any wrong move would break him. Koganegawa's head was lifted by his chin to look at the person who was touching him. He was looking at the man who was laughing at them at the beginning of all of this. Koganegawa was staring right into the man’s red eyes and the man was staring back but with a look of sadness? The man looked at him for a while before he was pushed away from someone. He looked in the direction in which the man was pushed and he saw none other than Tendou Satori. “Hey! Don’t touch him. Didn’t your mom teach you to not touch others you don't know.” Who would have known that the Tendou Satori would lecture someone for their manners. Koganegawa could only stare and he didn’t even know how he ended up behind Tendou-San. Tendou-San who had a protective hand in front of Koganegawa to protect him from the mysterious man that was interested in him. When the man got up he looked at Tendou-San up and down but Tendou-San didn’t back down in the glare the man gave him.

_~Tendou POV

Tendou, who was sitting next to Osamu and Iwaizumi, was having a peaceful conversation when the cart stopped and the impact caused everyone to fall to the ground. When everyone got to their feet they looked around to see what had happened. That is when Tendou saw it, a man was grabbing a young boy by his chin. Tendou couldn’t control his body and quickly ran towards the cart's door and pried it open and ran to the other door to open it too. Tendou pushed the man down hard, and he quickly grabbed Koganegawa and put him behind him in order to protect the first year. Tendou really didn’t expect to see Kanji Koganegawa here but now was not the time to think of that since there was a man right in front of him that was probably planning to kill them all. He heard footsteps running towards both Koganegawa and him. He looked in the direction in which the footsteps were coming from and was relieved that it was only Iwaizumi and Osamu. They looked shocked but understood that the man who was now getting up could be a potential

The mysterious man, with his unsettling red eyes, slowly rose to his feet, a sinister smile playing on his lips. Tendou could sense danger emanating from him, but he stood his ground, unwavering in his determination to keep Koganegawa safe. Iwaizumi and Osamu quickly joined Tendou's side, their expressions a mix of concern and readiness for whatever might come next. The atmosphere in the subway car crackled with tension as the passengers watched the unfolding scene with bated breath. The man's gaze flickered from Tendou to Koganegawa, a calculating glint in his eyes. "You're quite the interesting group," he said, his voice smooth but laced with an underlying menace. "But you have no idea what you've stumbled upon." Before anyone could react, the man raised his hand, and a surge of dark energy crackled around him. Tendou instinctively stepped forward, shielding Koganegawa from the impending attack.

Iwaizumi yelled, “No! Zero Ground Skill stage 1! Active!” And there was a flash of red light which caused something to protect both Tendou and Koganegawa. They looked at Iwaizumi and Iwaizumi was looking bewildered at his hands. Nobody said a thing but they kept their guard up to make sure no harm came to one another. “I’m guessing that you two are a couple if he was the first one to activate his ability just to save you. '' stated rather the sickly, sweet man. Iwaizumi didn’t say anything and Tendou was starting to not like this guy.

 

_*Koganegawa POV

Koganegawa had no idea why Tendou had saved him, he really shouldn’t be alive. Koganegawa really wanted to die, he wasn’t going to work today. He was going to commit suicide today, he had planned that today would be his last day to live. As Koganegawa stood there, feeling a mix of fear and confusion, he couldn't shake off the overwhelming emotions that were swirling inside him. The sudden turn of events in the subway car had thrown his carefully laid plans into disarray. Tendou's protective stance and Iwaizumi's quick thinking had saved him from a potentially dangerous situation, but deep down, Koganegawa couldn't help but feel a sense of despair creeping in.

Koganegawa was abused by his Aunt and Uncle. They seemed to enjoy his pain since they were all over the news because of Koganegawa. Maybe that is why they hated him and wished he was dead. Koganegawa only caused problems as they say, he always caused the family to fall apart. Koganegawa really didn’t know how or why he did it but he didn’t question it. He believed it, he believed that every little bad thing that came was his fault.

Now he looked around at the faces of his unexpected allies, a wave of guilt washed over him. They had risked their lives to protect him, a stranger with a troubled past and a heavy heart. Koganegawa couldn't fathom why they would go to such lengths for him, someone who had already given up on himself. The mysterious man's taunting words echoed in his mind, stirring up a whirlwind of conflicting thoughts. Was there truly something special about him that he was unaware of? Or was it all just a cruel twist of fate that had brought him to this moment? Lost in his inner turmoil, Koganegawa felt a hand gently rest on his shoulder, pulling him back to the present. It was Tendou, his gaze soft yet determined. "You're not alone, Koganegawa," he said quietly, his voice cutting through the chaos around them. "We're in this together now, and we'll find a way through it." Those simple words struck a chord deep within Koganegawa's troubled soul. For the first time in a long while, a flicker of hope ignited within him. Maybe, just maybe, there was a reason to keep fighting, to keep moving forward.

With newfound resolve, Koganegawa straightened his posture, meeting Tendou's gaze with a determined nod. The path ahead was uncertain and fraught with danger, but he knew that as long as he had allies by his side, he wouldn't have to face it alone. As the mysterious man stopped his taunt fighting he started to attack them with real power, but Iwaizumi protected them until he got hurt and Tendou started to panic. He ran towards Iwaizumi while telling him, “Hajime! Hey. Hey everything is going to be alright!” But Iwaizumi was already bleeding badly and within seconds Tendou had unlocked his ability. “Rehabilitation stage 2! Scar never exist!” Iwaizumi was healed like never before, even the scar was completely gone.

Koganegawa stared at the scene in front of him. How can this happen? Where they suck into a fantasy book or something? As Tendou and Iwaizumi managed to hold back the man Osamu was grabbing Koganegawa and Koganegawa was holding onto Osamu for dear life. As fire managed to pass through both Tendou and Iwaizumi it was heading towards Koganegawa and Osamu yelled out, “Ugh! No!” And his skill has been activated. “Rain of Ice, Stage 3, Ice Sheet!” Stated Osamu with a serious voice as a sheet of ice attacked the fire. Koganegawa just stared at the scenario in front and was wondering what would happen after they had defeated the man. When the man was defeated by Osamu, Iwaizumi, and Tendou the guy just gave them a smile and before leaving he muttered something. Nobody heard him but Koganegawa did. Osamu, Iwaizumi, and Tendou crashed onto the floor due to exhaustion and Koganegawa checked on them to see if they had any injuries and was relieved when they didn’t have any.

Koganegawa looked around to see if there were any other dangers. He looked around for a while before sighing and turning back to the group of boys laying on the ground. As he stared he couldn’t help but wonder what motivated them to help a broken boy like him. When he stared at them longer he felt different, he didn’t know how to describe it. “Omniscient Reader Viewpoint Stage 1, First Person Point of View.” his skill had been activated just because he stared at the group of people in which he thought as friends? Koganegawa was looking at the past of each single one of them.

Iwaizumi Hajime had a normal life, well that is what everyone thought. His dad left his mom and his mom is a single parent, and he was also very great friends with Kageyama. Kageyama Tobio was known as the King of the Court, but Koganegawa met the guy once and he seemed to not like the name. It showed that Iwaizumi worked hard to keep his grades up for his mother. Osamu Miya's life seemed tough because he seemed to like him better than Atsumu and Atsumu was jealous of him. Atsumu seemed to be a pain in the butt also because he seemed to annoy Osamu a lot and just wanted to know more about his twin brother, Osamu.

Tendou Satori also had a tough life, he was bullied because of his looks which isn’t fair. He’s been called so many horrible names that even Koganegawa can’t handle. Tendou Satori's mother pushed Tendou into being a doctor and planned out his future which made it sad. Tendou should pick what he wants to be in the future, not his mother. His father seemed pretty laid back so that’s what made the situation better and his father told him to be what he wants and not listen to his mother but Tendou mother kept pushing him to become a doctor. Tendou’s life was sad because he was forced to grow up to be something he really didn’t want to be.

As he was brought back to the future time he took another look around and noticed that all of the adults had disappeared and that it was quiet…too quiet. He waited a bit more before going out to see what dangers that can be brought to them. ‘20…30...50’ were the seconds he was counting, as they passed Koganegawa went outside the subway to see what could possibly be a danger to them. Koganegawa walked about 20 miles from the subway when he heard sounds behind him he turned around to see that it was Iwaizumi, Osamu, and Tendou-San. “What are you thinking!” yelled out Iwaizumi and that is when something happened to Koganegawa’s body and he fell to the floor. He could hear them screaming out his name, telling him to stay awake, he couldn’t and fell right to sleep…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Koganegawa woke up in the subway tracks and he looked around to see if Iwaizumi, Osamu, and Tendou-San were still there… but they weren’t. Koganegawa was… sad? Angry? Abandoned? Scared? He really didn’t know how to feel, but he really couldn’t focus on that because something was happening in front of him. As he made his way to see what the disturbance was all about and when he got there he saw… a lot to say the least. There was Sakusa…Iwaizumi…Osamu…Tendou…and…Komori. How did he know the other guy's name? He didn’t know him from anywhere. He wasn’t related to anyone there and better not know anyone there, but he had a strong feeling that he was wrong.

He was sure that he knew Komori, but he didn’t know how. He wanted to find out why he really felt attached to this person. Why this person felt so important to him. Why did everything feel like a broken puzzle piece? Koganegawa stared at the scene in front of them, it showed them fighting some sort of monsters. They looked like wolves but they could stand up on their back legs. As Koganegawa stared at the scene in front of him he could make many plans on how to defeat the monsters. When he had an idea his vision had started to go black again.

Koganegawa shot up and noticed that someone was carrying him. He knew that Iwaizumi must be carrying him because Iwaizumi was wearing the same coat that he was wearing when he met up with Tendou. Iwaizumi noticed that he woke up and slowly places him on the ground so Tendou could check him up. As Tendou did he noticed that the wolves were right behind him and he yelled out, “Tendou behind you!” When Tendou looked behind him he was about to get attacked but Koganegawa managed to summon… a sword. He somehow managed to fight off the wolf. They stared in shock at the blood on the floor. Before anyone could say a thing, wolf monsters stood menacingly on their back legs, brandishing weapons that gleamed in the moonlight, Koganegawa knew they needed a solid plan to take them down. With a determined look in his eyes, he turned to his teammates.

"We need to work together to defeat these creatures," announced Tendou, following Koganegawa’s movements, conjuring his own blade with a flourish. “Wow. Never knew I could do that.” Tendou stated surprised at the fact he did it without thinking. Osamu stepped forward, his hands crackling with icy energy. "I'll freeze them in their tracks," he said, readying his powers to immobilize the wolf monsters.Iwaizumi nodded, his gravity powers already humming with potential. "I'll use my skill to keep them grounded while you two take them out," he said, a steely resolve in his voice.

With their plan in place, the four of them charged towards the wolf monsters, each using their unique skills to outmaneuver and overpower the creatures. Koganegawa and Tendou slashed and parried with their swords, while Osamu encased the monsters in ice, leaving them vulnerable to Iwaizumi's gravity powers. In a flurry of teamwork and determination, the wolf monsters were swiftly defeated, their weapons clattering to the ground as they fell. Koganegawa, Tendou, Osamu, and Iwaizumi stood victorious, their unity and strength prevailing against the odds. And as they caught their breath, Koganegawa couldn't help but feel a surge of pride for his team. Together, they were unstoppable.

He was glad that he met this set of people and he started to clap his hands in joy. Tendou looked impressed and happy that they had won and not lost their lives. It was the first time they were fighting so why did it feel like they had fought this a million times? Was Koganegawa the only person who felt that way or did everyone else feel like that? He chose to ignore it and they stood in silence in order to regain strength to walk.

When they did, they started to walk into the unknown, Koganegawa knew they were going to be alright because they were able to protect themselves from anything that came their way. He shouldn't get too confident about this because maybe they weren’t that strong but he needs to have a bit of hope going on. When they got out of the subway they made their way to go outside in hopes that maybe they had been dreaming but outside wasn’t better. There were collapsed buildings, broken windows, and dead bodies everywhere. Koganegawa could pass out but he decided not to because he didn’t want anyone to carry him again. He was probably heavy and didn't want anyone to anyway.

They looked at each other and then looked at the ruined world. That is when they decided to stay with one another to make sure that everyone stays alive throughout all of the chaos that was happening. Koganegawa made his first strip towards the ruined city to see if there were any survivors left that could join them but there seem to be none. As he walked he could help but feel sad and he can’t really explain why though. He really felt like they were missing someone but he can’t remember who they were. They were walking in peaceful silence when there was a scream.

All of them ran towards the sound of the screams and they saw…Kageyama, Kuroo, and Lev? What were they doing in Tokyo? They see Kageyama summoning water in order to protect Kuroo and Lev. Kuroo is putting shields around Kageyama as he attacks the enemy and Lev is standing there looking…useless? Iwaizumi was the first to act since Kageyama and Iwaizumi are really close. Iwaizumi protected them from the threat of monsters that came towards Kageyama’s way.

Kageyama looked relieved but worried at the same time. “Hajime… I-I’m sorry.” Said Kageyama. Hajime looked at Kageyama and told him, “You don’t have to apologize but why are you apologizing?” Asked Iwaizumi. “I couldn’t defeat a monster by myself… I really am useless.” Stated Kageyama. Lev stepped out and yelled, “Kageyama! You were the one doing the monster of the protecting! I was the one standing here and not doing a thing! You are more useful than me!” Kageyama smiled at Lev and Lev gave him a big smile back to encourage Kageyama.

Iwaizumi placed a reassuring hand on Kageyama's shoulder, his expression softening. "Kageyama, you're not useless. You did a great job protecting Kuroo and Lev. We're a team, and we all have our strengths and weaknesses. It's about working together to overcome any challenge."Kageyama's eyes widened in surprise at Iwaizumi's words, a glimmer of hope shining through his doubt. "Thank you, Hajime," he whispered, a sense of gratitude washing over him.

Kuroo, who had been busy creating shields to protect Kageyama, chimed in with a smirk. "Don't be so hard on yourself, Tobio. You did an excellent job out there. And Lev is right, you were the one leading the charge against the monsters." Lev nodded enthusiastically, his tall frame towering over the group. "Yeah, Kageyama! You were amazing! We couldn't have held our ground without your quick thinking and water manipulation."

Kageyama's confidence seemed to grow with each word of encouragement from his teammates. A small smile tugged at the corners of his lips as he realized that he wasn't alone in this fight. As they regrouped and prepared to face the next wave of enemies, Kageyama felt a newfound sense of determination burning within him. With his friends by his side, he knew that together they could overcome any obstacle that stood in their way.

Koganegawa, Osamu, and Tendou made their way to them to make sure everyone was alright. When they had made sure everyone was alright Koganegawa asked, “What are you guys doing here?” Kuroo answered,”We were here because I wanted to hang out with Lev and I told him to invite a friend over to hang out with us. I also invited Bokuto but we got separated during the monster attack and that is where all three of us got our skills. Lev is a bit shy with his skill.”

As Koganegawa, Osamu, and Tendou listened to Kuroo's explanation, a sense of understanding washed over them. Koganegawa nodded in acknowledgment, his gaze softening as he looked at Lev. "It's okay, Lev. We all have our strengths and weaknesses. What matters is that we support each other and work together as a team," he reassured, a sense of camaraderie evident in his words. Osamu chimed in, a small smile playing on his lips. "Yeah, that's right. We all bring something unique to the table, and that's what makes us a strong team," he added, his voice warm and encouraging. Tendou, with his trademark grin, spoke up next. "I think it's pretty cool that you guys found your skills in the midst of chaos. It just goes to show that sometimes, the most unexpected situations can bring out the best in us," he mused, his eyes sparkling with mischief.

“I’m really surprised you guys are here also”, stated Kuroo. Osamu, Iwaizumi, Tendou, and Koganegawa stared at each not knowing why the other was there. The longer they started the more uncomfortable the air got. They then burst out in laughter because of how funny it was, Kuroo just looked confused. “We’ll explain later. Right now all we have to worry about is how to survive.” said Iwaizumi.

_^ Kuroo POV

As he walked Kuroo stopped and looked behind him…weird… Why did it feel like they were missing someone? Why does it feel so wrong to walk away? Why did he feel the need to run back and look all around to find the missing person? Before Kuroo’s body reacted he felt himself being pulled back into reality when he heard, “Kuroo? Are you ok? Do I need to do something?” asked Lev with a soft tone. Kuroo looked at Lev and asked, “Do you feel like something is missing?”

_! Lev POV

Lev stared at Kuroo in shock…now that Kuroo had mentioned it… He did feel like something was missing. “Yes, Kuroo I do feel like someone is missing and that doesn't seem right to me. But right now we have everyone.” said Lev in a soft tone. Kuroo looked at Lev and gave him a small smile, “Yeah, your right Lev. Let's go catch up with the others.” Kuroo took Lev by his hand and they ran after the others. Lev has never felt more alive, Kuroo had grabbed him by his hand. Kuroo was like an older brother he never had and he was so happy that Kuroo had stayed with him.

_* Koganegawa

When Koganegawa turned around he noticed that both Kuroo and Lev weren’t behind them so he made the others stop and wait for them. As they waited Koganegawa felt his head start to hurt badly. Koganegawa fell to his knees and he felt warm liquid fall down his nose, when he touched his nose he noticed that it was blood…everything felt so hazy and before he knew it he fell into darkness…
