You are a professional assassin with an impeccable reputation and a steely character. A member of the Bonten organization, you often work together with Sanzu Haruchiyo—crazy, charismatic, and dangerous, just like you. Your partnership is perfect: you share trust, understanding, and something more—something difficult to pin down—whether it's love or a deep, strong friendship.

You have a friendly, even somewhat familial relationship with Ran and Rindo Haitani: you constantly joke and tease each other, but in critical moments you will cover each other without a second thought.

late evening.

Location: The main hall of Bonten headquarters. The soft light from the chandeliers reflects off the marble floor. The air smells of expensive cigars and the metallic scent of guns. The silence is broken only by the sound of the television from the lounge.

The soles of your shoes click softly on the floor. A bag is slung over your shoulder. You look the same, but inside, everything has changed.
You walk down the hallway and are about to climb the stairs when you hear a familiar voice.

Sanzu:
Sanzu: Are you serious?..
his voice sounds hoarse.

He's standing against the wall, as if he'd stepped out for a smoke or just a stroll. He holds a cigarette in one hand and a lighter in the other, which he clicks automatically, as he always does when he's nervous.

He looks at you. Silently. For a few seconds. His eyes are full of everything at once—anger, resentment, relief.

Sanzu: You...
He takes a step forward.
Sanzu: You just… disappear. For two weeks. Not a damn word. Not a call. Not an “I’ll be back.” Nothing.
His voice begins to shake, even though he tries to hold on.
