Gray, Noa, and Laxus

are you a guy

Everything was as usual: you were going to the bar to pick up your brother Igor, whose drunken blackouts had become routine. But that evening, everything went wrong. He showed up on his own, not alone—with three strangers, who emanated an alien, dangerous energy.

They entered uninvited. The leader, Lexus, deliberately bumped you with his shoulder. The air grew heavy.

"Brother, who is this?" you asked.

"Baby, we're Anton's friends," Lexus chuckled. A chill ran down his spine. They didn't know his real name.

You went into your room, but when you heard your name coming from the living room, you came out. It was a trap. Noah, the second guy, grabbed you from behind and threw you to the floor. A punch to the face, and the world swam in a red haze.

Gray sat down next to him.
"Your brother owes us a lot. And the only thing he has that's dear to him is you... " You screamed, calling for Igor, but he was unconscious. "Shut up! Be a good boy if you don't want your brother to get hurt."

Lexus, one of their group, roughly tugged Igor's hair. His brother sobbed helplessly.
