Shirtless and unafraid

"Sigh"

After the cell of Akari Yuu, Cane began his short walk back to the elevator, and after treading on so many bodies and piles of blood he couldn't help but notice the state of his pants and shoes, they were ruined

Coming from a rather violent mob family Cane had learned over the years that no amount of lemon juice or cleaning fluid was ever enough to get blood and grey matter out of Italian Fabric… meaning his pants were ruined as the entire ankle width had gone from black to a dyed crimson, the same applied for his shoes which had gone a new shade of maroon

Even if he didn't mind the colors, the blood would soon congeal and begin to smell within a few days, and even if red complemented his black hair and complexion the stink never did

Finally, after practically wading his way through the bloody halls he arrived at the elevator, only to find it practically torn open, covered in claw marks, and smelling like blood, although could just be him

As he began to inspect the condition of the elevator, he was suddenly talked to by someone, reacting by instinct he rolled with the impact as to end up on top, holding his gun to the head of the attacker who he found was someone he knew

Alice

Although he could hardly tell thanks to her being near saturated in blood and her face was just as red "h-hey C-C-Cane" she seemed to be on the verge of fainting just like she had last time he had seen her before suddenly her eyes shifted to a glowing purple "WE MIsSed YoU SOooOO MUcH!"

She tried to roll him to end up on top but as she was clearly unshifted she was unable to do so with her meager weight, beside Cane remember the last time she was on top of him and wasn't going to let that happen again any time soon, so he just sighed for the tenth time today and got off the girl

Pouting at the lack of physical contact Alice also got to her feet, standing slightly too close and looking up at him with eyes that were now red "Why Didn't You VISIT US!" she asked, demanding answered like a petulant child, which he had to admit was cute

He was about to answer her but suddenly a boxcutter flew across the room between them and embedded itself in a nearby wall which was MADE OF CONCRETE by the way

Turning his head, he saw a new sight! Jasmin bare of her wheelchair or any restrains standing across the room from them, she looked a mix of happy to see him and pissed at Alice. "Hello Dr. Barlow" she gently called to him, walking across the room and taking a seductive tone "I must say… all this death and you aren't even bothered, maybe we ARE destined for each other" she released a small chuckle at her words, but Cane had a strange feeling that she was dead serious

A cracking sound rang out as Alice "Accidently" crushed the skull of a nearby corpse in frustration while giving Jasmin the deadest gaze Cane had ever seen

Despite the situation Cane couldn't help but chuckle "yes it's good to see you, girls, too" he had turned his head to inspect the body of a corpse hoping to find a phone, hoping he could get the overseer to send a small team to pick him up because that elevator looked quite damaged, so he never saw the bright blush light up the girl's faces "although I wish I could have seen you without restraints under better circumstances"

(Alice Pov)

"Oh, he looks so handsome in the red light" she couldn't help but think, loving how the crimson light of the broken elevator lights showered her love and added a beautiful definition to his muckles and made his eyes shine like a guiding light

{maybe we should have our way with him here and now!} Wolfey seemed to be panting despite not having control at the moment {I'm sure he wouldn't mind If we asked!}

"Have some Class!" she began lecturing Wolfey for like the fourth time today about her blunt behavior as she felt her face heat up "Besides this place smells of nothing but blood and death"

{doesn't bother me!}

Alice was about to respond but then Cane suddenly began undoing his shirt

{HOLY SHIT DID HE HEAR ME!} Wolfey suddenly began panicking {I-I MEAN I WOULD LOVE TO BUT THAT BITCH IS HERE!... P-PLEASE BE GENTLE!}

"He can't hear you" Alice quietly spoke turning red as she pointed towards Cane he was now fastening his shirt around one of the Elevator wires "he getting ready to climb out"

(Jasmin pov)

OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD

Cane had taken off his shirt and near given Jasmin a heart attack

Even with a genius-level IQ and being a literal psychopath the sight of the man that she had decided as her own shirtless sent a rush of blood through her whole body and left her hotter and redder than Betelgeuse

She had to hold herself back by just a thread to avoid taking him now amongst the Ambrosial smell of blood and fresh corpses, but she knew if she did that not only would she leave herself vulnerable from an attack by the wolf fucker and likely wouldn't be able to hold herself from eating him whole

The only thing that stopped her was the thought that he would be all hers one day

(Cane pov)

"This climb is going to suck" he grumbled looking up through the torn roof of the elevator and seeing the distance he needed to go, not knowing the amazing feat of stopping two yanderes from fighting he had accomplished by simply taking off his shirt
