Last Boss - A present

English is not my first language! 

Synopsis: Last Boss has his eyes on a certain girl who’s been living at the Beach for a few weeks now. But how is he supposed to approach her? He had seen boys giving the girls they like flowers and chocolate in his old world. But in this world? He had to find something better.

Akemi was laying on one of the pool chairs next to her friends, enjoying the sun, while hearing the faint sounds of music coming from the inside of the hotel. 

She had been in this strange world for a month now, having spend her last two weeks at the Beach. It was a nice place, but she also knew about the many dangers that were all around them. They often lead back to a certain group, the militants. The group were supposed to keep the peace at the Beach and make sure everyone was safe, sadly that wasn’t the case. They terrorized the people and took whatever they wanted, since no one was able to say anything against them. 

But apart from them the Beach was a nice place, a place that provided electricity, working showers, even fun and friends. It was a place for the people who were all in the same situation. Having to fight for their lives every few days in brutal games just to be allowed to survive in this world for as long as their visa was. It was horrible, but the Beach offered distraction, which was happily welcomed. 

„God, I wish he wasn’t a killer.“ Ikari, one of Akemi’s friends, sighed loudly as the others now followed her line of vision. 

The militants just arrived at the pool area, led by none other than Niragi, the right hand of the militant’s leader. He was a known killer and rapist, a horrible person, someone you didn’t want to get too close to. 

„He’s so hot.“ She continued, causing Akemi to turn her head towards her friend, staring at her unbelieving. 

„Are you kidding me? You know how he is.“ She muttered, glancing back at the militants, just to catch Last Boss’ eyes. 

She had never talked to the tattooed man, but she had played a game with him. It was difficult as they had to escape out of an old trailer park, with dangers hiding behind nearly every single trailer. They managed to get out of there together as a team. He had saved her life as she was nearly stumbling into a bear trap, therefore she had saved his life, stopping him from getting pierced by an arrow triggered by a trip hazard. 

But ever since the game, they haven’t spoken one word with each other. Akemi wasn’t even sure if he was able to talk at all, she had yet never heard him say something. Therefore, he observed a lot, wherever she went, he was there a few minutes later. If she was in the disco room, dancing or drinking, he stood somewhere leaned against a wall, looking around while she felt his eyes on her more than once. If she was at the pool, he walked his rounds here or sat down at the pool bar. If she was in the dining hall, he was there too, grabbing himself something to eat. At first, she found it a little creepy, but by now she wasn’t bothered with it. 

„I know, I know.“ Ikari answered with a loud sigh, „But it still doesn’t change the fact that he’s hot.“ She hummed, making Akemi raise her eyebrows before shaking her head. 

„Whatever. I’m gonna go and get another round.“ She told her friends as she now got up, walking towards the pool bar. „Hi.“ She smiled at the man behind it, „Could I get four mojitos please?“ She asked, making him smile and nod his head as he now prepared the drinks. 

Akemi sat down on one of the stools, hanging behind her thoughts while watching how he was getting four glasses out of a cabinet, filling them with cubes. 

„Do you want,“ He began, turning towards her with a smile, but he quickly stopped in the middle of the sentence, widening his eyes slightly. „Uhm… Do you want mint leaves in the glasses?“ He asked now almost shyly, stumbling over his own words, which caused Akemi to raise her eyebrows confused. She sent him a short nod, causing him to quickly turn around again as he continued, while she now looked over her shoulders. 

„Hey,“ She greeted the man who stood right behind her, staring at her with his typical, dead eyes. „You’re Last Boss, right?“ She asked after a second where he didn’t answer her, just continuing to stare at her. „We played the Six of Spades together, I don’t know if you remember…“ She continued as he still didn’t give her an answer. 

This time, he at least nodded slowly, causing her to smile awkwardly as an uncomfortable silence spread between them. Why was he just staring at her without saying anything? What was wrong with him? 

„Last Boss,“ Niragi now called out to him, glancing at Akemi dismissive for a second before focusing back on his friend. „Stop flirting! Come on, Aguni wants to talk to us.“ 

Flirting? Whatever this was, it wasn’t flirting, right? 

Last Boss slowly nodded at his friend before focusing back on Akemi. And instead of saying something, anything, he just extended his hand. The girl raised her eyebrows confused as she held her hand out, feeling how something cold made contact with her palm, causing her to look down confused. Last Boss gave her a small white stone with black dots all over it, as it had a honey comb structure. It shined a little, almost as if he had tried to polish it a little. 

„Thank you.“ Akemi whispered, not sure what this meant but to her surprise he had the smallest blush on his cheeks, „It’s really beautiful.“ She told him, making him almost squirm as he now nodded, before quickly turning around and practically bolting over to Niragi who just laughed at his friend.  

Akemi continued glancing between his retreating figure and the small stone in her hand, but before she could make sense of it, her friends already rushed over towards her, surrounding her as they all stared at the thing in her hand. 

„He gave you this?“ One of them asked, looking at her surprised. „A stone?“ 

„Yeah?“ Akemi sounded unsure, shaking her head. „I’ve got no idea why.“ 

„Oh my god,“ Ikari squealed slightly, grabbing Akemi’s shoulders. „He likes you!“

Last Boss - Scared to loose you

English is not my first language! 

synopsis: Akemi joined the Beach after having played a game where she saved Last Boss’ life, having him swept right off his feet. Ever since he became her shadow, trying to keep her safe. But what happens when another militant thinks he saves Last Boss from the spell she has over him by plotting her death? 

warnings: description of violence and blood

„Hey, sunshine!“ Niragi hollered, causing Akemi to turn her head confused. „You’re with us.“ He ordered, nodding over towards the three other militants. 

It was time for another game as she was apparently grouped up with the four militants. Akemi nodded her head, hurrying over while sending Last Boss a small smile. 

The two have grown pretty close for the last weeks. Ever since Akemi had saved him in a Five of Clubs game, tackling him to the ground without hesitation so the bullets wouldn’t pierce through him, he became her shadow. It didn’t matter where she went, he was there. If she was at the pool, he lingered around at the pool bar. If she was in the disco room, he stood leaned against a wall, making sure no one would harass her. 

Akemi wasn’t sure how or why, but he apparently talked Hatter into sorting her with him in almost every game. There was just one game out of the last five she hasn’t played with him. The Five of Spades. Therefore Aguni had a close eye on her the whole time, knowing whatever she meant to her friend was important. 

So, it wasn’t much of a surprise as she was finding herself in a car with Last Boss, Niragi, Aguni and Yuto. 

Akemi was squished in the backseat between Yuto, who just snarled at her whenever her body accidentally pressed against his in a curve and Last Boss, who just stared at her with his typical dead eyes that she learned to lov- to like. Like. Just like. 

They finally stopped in front of an old theme park combined with a zoo. There were old, empty enclosures all over the big park grounds that were lit by the many lamps and lights from the different rides. 

There were three other players standing near a wall, clutching onto their phones as they eyed the group nervously. Obviously, Akemi could understand them. Aguni was taller and broader than usual people, wearing cargo pants and a black tank top that highlighted his muscles with a couple of weapons on his belt. Niragi’s face was covered in piercings and he had a rifle slung over his shoulder. Also, his aura screamed psycho, just one glance was enough to know he wasn’t exactly a good person. Yuto looked a little more average, blonde hair being styled up into a fashionable hairstyle and just like Aguni he had a few weapons on his belt, a clock in his hand as he glanced around the area. And then there was Last Boss. Did Akemi really have to say why he stood out? Surely not. 

The five grabbed their phones before retreating to the other side of the table, waiting for the time to run up. 

„Registration closed. The game will now commence.“ The electronic voice finally announced. „Game: Predator and Prey. Difficulty: Six of Spades. Time Limit: 30 minutes.“ 

Akemi slowly nodded her head. She wasn’t sure if she was supposed to be glad or worried about the fact that it was a Spades game. Sure, the militants were all amazing in Spades games, but Akemi? She favoured Diamonds or maybe even Hearts.

„Rules: Every player is a zebra. In the trend where players are preyed no by different animals, the only choices are fight or flight. It is Game Clear if all the predators are killed within the time limit. It is Game Over if all players are killed boy the predators.“ The voice announced loudly, causing Akemi to closer her eyes. „Game start.“

A large screen, burst into life, now showing pictures of different animals. There were all sort of felidae as well as birds and even bears on it.

„All right, let’s do this!“ Niragi laughed loudly, looking around cheerfully. 

„Let’s separate.“ Aguni ordered, „We’ll be done quicker.“

They all nodded as it was Yuto walking over to Akemi, making her raise her eyebrows. „Here.“ He hummed, handing her a small hand weapon. And without another word, he turned around and walked away, as the other men did as well. 

Just Last Boss lingered for a few more seconds next to Akemi, looking down at her thoughtful. „Hide and don’t come out ‘till the end.“ He brushed his hand against the back of hers before also walking off, leaving Akemi behind with a racing heart. 

She breathed through for a second before finally walking away, trying to find a hiding place. She wasn’t experienced in shooting a weapon and while this game was probably very easy for the other militants, Akemi knew it would be much more complicated for herself. 

Gun shots echoed through the air, making the girl roll her eyes as she heard Niragi laughing loudly as if he had the time of his life. Akemi caught a glance of the man as he was sitting on a swinging pirate ship, shooting at something she couldn’t see. 

God, this guy. He’d surely gonna go to hell but at least he enjoyed the ride ‘till then. 

Akemi continued her way down the empty paths, trying her best to be quick but silent at the same time. There was no real hiding place, at least none that was good enough. After all she was quite sure that if she’d hide on a tree, a Cheetah would easily climb up and kill her there. Not to talk about the eagle that would surely rip her to shreds if she’d seriously dare to hide in a tree. 

But there wasn’t much else to hide either. In a building? Surely not, this is where the game masters would probably hide a slower predator. There was nothing she could hide under, but even if there was, there were enough smaller predators who could easily climb under something like a vehicle and then she’d be too slow to get out. 

Shit, shit, shit! What was she supposed to do?

Akemi clutched onto the gun in her hand, trying to control her breathing so she wouldn’t be too loud. She sneaked forward. There was a drop tower on the other side of the park. If she could get there, she might get onto the ride and be at least safe for a short time that she would be in the air. If an eagle would attack her she might be able shoot it, at least it wouldn’t be as deadly as a lion, right? That’s what Akemi hoped. But in order to get to that tower she had to cross the whole park. 

Fuck it, this was her only chance. 

So, Akemi ran forward, trying her best to be silent while hiding in the shadows as good as possible. 

But she just managed to cross half the way as she hard a loud roaring close to her, making her press against the wall tightly, her heart pounding out of her chest. The girl pressed a hand to her mouth to stop herself from making any sounds as she heard the animal, probably a lion or tiger passing the other side of the building. She heard its heavy steps on the ground and she knew she had to get away from there before it would smell her. 

Akemi racked her brain before having an idea. If she could distract it long enough, she could sneak around the building and run away. That’s why she finally slipped out of her shoes, breathing through before throwing one as far as possible into the opposite direction. The animal roared loudly as Akemi now ran into the other direction around the building. 

There was no sound coming from in front of her, making her sigh relieved as she now rounded the corner. But she froze right in her tracks, seeing the bear standing there. It was staring right at the girl, letting out a load roar. 

Akemi’s hand began trembling as she raised the gun. It was hard to aim due to the shaking of her hands but luckily the bear was a big target, she couldn’t miss it, right? A loud shot echoed through the air as she shot at it, once, twice… And then it ended. The gun clicked but no more bullets came out and the bear wasn't even wounded. It was just angry.

The girl took a step back slowly, hoping that she wouldn’t trigger it even more if she ran. But it was too late for that. It rushed forward, leaping at her as Akemi twirled around, rushing away as quick as possible. How quick were bears? Surely not as quick as a cheetah, but could she outrun it? 

Before she could wonder about it further, she felt a heavy weight pushing onto her back, causing her to fall to the ground with a groan, managing to turn onto her back. She hissed as his claws cut through her shirt and skin. The bear was hovering right over her, baring its teeth as his hot breath fanned her face.

Akemi closed her eyes. Which animal had a sensitive nose? Bears? Sharks? She was quite sure it were sharks, but maybe… hopefully she was wrong. In a last attempt to save her life she smacked the gun straight against it nose but that just made the bear growl loudly, ripping its head back and revealing its large, deadly fangs. 

This was it. 

This was the end. 

——————————————————————————————————

Niragi jumped off the ship, grinning to himself as he saw the cadavers of various animals laying all around the ride. This was one of the easiest game yet. With his weapon he was sure he could take any animal. Six of Spades? Ridiculous. 

„How’s it going?“ He asked, as he saw Yuto close by, panting heavily as he had just shot a cheetah that was jumping at him. 

„All good.“ The man answered. „It’s easy.“ 

„Absolutely.“ Niragi sighed, almost being bored. 

Yuto looked around before taking a step closer, not wanting for anyone to hear their conversation. „What do you think of Akemi?“ He asked, tilting his head to the side. 

Surely, Niragi wouldn’t like her either, right? How could he. The way she hindered Last Boss form fully focusing on his task as he always was around her… No, Niragi surely wouldn’t like her. And if he told him his plan, he might even promote him, maybe he could become an executive member. 

„Why?“ Niragi raised his eyebrows, looking at the other almost curiously.

Yuto grinned darkly, shrugging his shoulders. „She’s a distraction to Last Boss. It’ll be just a matter of time until she get him accidentally killed when he’s trying to protect her, right?“ He asked, making Niragi hum. „The gun I gave her wasn’t fully loaded. Two bullets, not enough to take any of the predators down.“ He snickered, making Niragi nod slowly. 

„This way it’ll seem like an accident and Last Boss can fully focus on his tasks again.“ He followed his thought process. 

Yuto smiled proudly turning around as he now heard a vicious laugh behind him, coming from a hyena that was a couple of metres away, having focused on the two man. And just as he was raising his gun, he felt an awful pain erupting in his head, making him go to the ground as his weapon was ripped out of his hand. 

„What-“

„It doesn’t matter what I think of Akemi.“ Niragi hissed, looking at the man on the ground as he slowly walked backwards. „It matters what Last Boss thinks of her. If she dies, he might quit. Quit the militants, quit the Beach. And I won’t let that happen.“ 

Yuto stared at him with wide eyes, jumping to his feet to run away but Niragi was quicker, pointing his rifle at the man and shooting his leg. He went back down to the ground with a painful cry. The hyena now rushed froward, beginning to rip big stripes of flesh out of the screaming man. It dug its claws and teeth into him until Yuto’s cries began to fade. Soon enough he was dead, causing Niragi to smile darkly before shooting the hyena. 

„Fucking idiot.“ He scoffed before turning around and jogging off. 

Playing babysitter wasn’t something he had planned for this game and this scumbag now forced him to be one as he had to find the girl before a predator could. 

„Hey!“ Niragi called out seeing Aguni and Last Boss standing in the distance. „Where’s Akemi?“ 

The two just shrugged their shoulders, Last Boss’ eyes widening slightly. Was it a mistake to leave her alone? But he wouldn’t have been able to focus the way he did if she was next to him and he had to not just look out for himself but for her as well. Also he knew she could take care of herself after all. 

„Yuto played her. The gun he gave her contains only two bullets, he wanted her dead.“ Niragi hummed, causing Last Boss to immediately look around panicked. 

„Where is he?“ Aguni asked, crossing his arms in front of the chest.

„Dead.“ 

The leader nodded, „Good.“ He hummed, „Let’s find her and get out of here. Just the bear is left.“ he pointed towards the big screen. 

But before they could talk about a plan, they heard two gunshots close by, making Last Boss twirl around and run off immediately. 

„Shit.“ Niragi muttered, the two quickly following after their friend. 

If Akemi used the gun that meant the bear had to be close by. And all of them knew that two bullets surely wouldn’t kill a grown grizzly. They rounded the corner in time to see how the bear was hovering over their friend as she smashed the gun against its nose. 

„Idiot.“ Niragi scoffed, grabbing his rifle but before he could even aim Last Boss already rushed forward. 

Akemi closed her eyes, feeling the hot breath of the bear fanning over her face. She knew this would be the end, there was no way out of it. Yet, she felt weirdly at peace. This world was awful and getting out? It wasn’t the worst. Even though it wasn’t a nice way to go, getting her head bitten off by a bear. The image of Last Boss was in front of her inner eye and she just hoped he would be okay. 

Instead of feeling its fangs ripping out her throat, she felt something wet hitting her face, the bear making a weird gargling sound that caused the girl to open her eyes again. She saw the tip of a blade coming out of its throat, making her smile relieved. Last Boss, he saved her. Blood splattered all over her face and clothes as the bear’s body gave out, causing it to land on top of her, making her groan painfully. 

Last Boss appeared in her line of vision as seconds later the bear was pulled off of her, Aguni and Niragi standing there, both having grabbed a leg and pulled it away. 

„Game cleared. Congratulation.“ The voice came out of the speakers, making Akemi sigh relieved, letting her head drop down on the ground. 

„Thank you.“ She whispered as Last Boss now extended his hand, pulling her up to her feet. „Thanks guys.“ She also glanced at Aguni and Niragi who both just hummed before turning around, walking away to collect the card. 

„You’re hurt.“ Last Boss mumbled, taking a look at her wound carefully. 

„It’s not too bad.“ Akemi answered but scrunched up her face as it burned awfully. „Ann can take a look at it when we’re home.“ 

Last Boss nodded slowly as he now pulled her away, still holding onto her hand. 

„Thank you again, for saving me.“ Akemi looked up at him but he just shrugged it off. „Seriously. Without your help…“ She stopped, shuddering slightly as she thought about the outcome. 

„You saved my life before.“ He answered almost dismissively. 

„So this was just a quit pro quo?“ 

Last Boss stopped, slowly shaking his head. „I’ll always safe you. No matter how many times you’ve saved me before. It doesn’t matter.“ He whispered, glancing down at her. „Let’s go now, your wound has to be treated.“

Akemi smiled slightly, feeling her cheeks heating up as she didn’t move, making him hum confused. But instead of giving him an answer, she rose to her tiptoes, placing a gentle kiss on his cheek. He widened his eyes, his hand flying up to the place she just kissed as if he couldn’t believe it. 

„Thank you, Last Boss.“ 

He looked at her shocked and she swore she could see him blushing under his tattoos. „I-It’s no problem.“ He answered, trying to regain composure. „And, uh… You can call me Samura.“ 

Akemi smiled widely, nodding her head as she just placed another kiss on his other cheek. „Thank you, Samura.“
