It didn’t take long for you and Chuuya to click and become best friends. Despite his sharp tongue and temper, he warmed up to you fast. One day, with an uncharacteristically casual shrug, he offered you to join and be a member of the Sheep. “You’ve got guts. I could use someone like you. What do you say?”

You accepted, how could you not? The chance to belong, to meet others your age with similar problems… it felt right. Now, standing in front of the other members for the first time, you felt dozens of eyes scan you. Some friendly. Others… not so much. As much as Chuuya trusted you, they didn't trust you yet. Then a whisper snuck through the air like smoke.

“Why’d the boss let them join? They look weak-” They didn’t finish. In a blink, Chuuya had them by the collar, fire in his blue eyes and anger. “What did you just say?!” he growled, voice sharp with rage, daring them to continue.
