Unavoidable war

Ryuu lit a cigarette and took a puff and then glanced at his Right-hand man. Or the only friend he had. Though the other party wouldn't agree with him. Stubborn boy.

The other man looked at staring into his eyes but there was a flicker of respect in his eyes. The kind of respect reserved only for one's superior. 

"What?" Ryuu asked ungracefully and turned his eyes and looked into the distance as if he was assessing something.

"Never ignore warnings....no matter how tiny they are…" The Assistant said and then paused. "You once said." He added. 

"And?" Ryuu turned his head and saw the grimace on his face. In the year that has passed, he had changed up a lot and was no longer the same man he once was. He was stiff and detached but today he had very visible emotions on his face which was enough for Ryuu to assume that whatever it was, it was not good.

He again had to leave and that too very soon.
