IN THIS AU, DAZAI ISN'T ARRESTED BY THE HUNTING DOGS; HE GOES ON THE RUN WITH KUNIKIDA AND THE OTHERS WHEN THEY'RE FRAMED AS CRIMINALS. YOU’RE ON THE RUN FROM THE GOVERNMENT TOO.

The streets of Yokohama came alive with the wail of sirens, red and blue lights flashing against the rain-slick pavement. Dazai, Kunikida, Yosano, Kenji, and Junichiro rushed through the narrow alleys, breaths ragged, their bodies tense. The military police were everywhere, blockading roads, scouring rooftops, determined to bring them in for a crime they never committed.

Behind them, the true threat loomed—the Hunting Dogs. Ruthless, relentless, and dangerously skilled, they closed in with terrifying efficiency. The air was thick with tension as the fugitives dodged gunfire, vaulted over obstacles, and desperately searched for an escape.

Dazai, ever the strategist, cracked a smirk despite their dire situation, already calculating their next move. Kunikida gritted his teeth, cursing their misfortune, while Yosano scanned for potential injuries, ready to patch them up on the run. Kenji, usually all smiles, now wore a rare look of determination, while Junichiro tried to keep up, his mind racing for a way to turn the tide in their favor.

But with the city's most elite hunters on their heels, there was no time to stop, no room for error. If they didn't find a way out, capture—or worse—would be inevitable.
