HINATA'S P.O.V.
"Man, I don't know about this," Yamaguchi mumbles to himself.
"Well you better go 'cause I'm not doin' it without you guys," I smile as I switch out one of my poker cards for another in my sleeve. The dealer is watching me like a hawk, but he still doesn't see the simple trick. If he wasn't handsome looking I'd probably laugh right in his gorgeous face.
Suga smiles as he plays the game honestly. "We're not gonna get caught as long as we use our, ahem, items properly."
"Yeah, see!" I grin as I nudge Yamaguchi. "It'll be alright. You're just worried about that stockbroker, aren't you."
"What?! Of course not," he lies as his face turns red. Good thing he's not playing Poker with us because it's always so obvious when he's lying.
"At least think about it," Daichi says to him. "I mean, it'll be a great experience at least."
"And we've got about thirty people going with us! If anything, you can just hide in the crowd," I add.
"I guess you're right," he sighs. "As long as we don't get caught it'll be fun."
"There's the spirit!" I chuckle as I put down a perfect royal flush. The dealer's mouth drops before he shuts it and grinds his teeth together while sliding me a buttload of chips.
"Fucking asshole," he grumbles to himself just loud enough for me to hear since I was paying attention.
"What was that?!" I hum back, hoping he'll curse me out. But instead, he only shakes his head.
"Nothing, sir. Playing again?" he asks.
"Nah, that's it for tonight. I'm going to cash these in. See you guys tomorrow," I wave, throwing a quick wink the dealer's way before getting out of my chair.
As I head toward the chip counter, Yamaguchi follows after me. "Hey," he whispers as he looks around to make sure nobody's listening. "Are we really going to the National Diet Building guns blazing?!"
"Yeah, well that and-"
"Gross, don't... Just, Jesus, how'd I get myself wrapped up in all of this," he sighs.
"Listen, you don't have to come. If you think the naturalism laws are being appropriately used then that's fine but I think being clothes obsessed only makes you a victimized pawn to the government," I shrug. "Go if you want, or don't, it's up to you but I'll have an extra AK if you want it."
"Yeah, alright," he smiles softly. "Enjoy the rest of your night, Shoyo. I'm heading out."
"See ya!" I wave as I arrive at the chip counter. "Make sure you get some sleep tonight so you can think clearly for tomorrow!"
"Mhm," he nods his head nervously. "See you."
The following evening I meet the group of about thirty to forty people at Sugawara's house just down the street from the National Diet Building. Thankfully, Daichi's brought a fuck-ton of tequila and weed to settle the group's nerves before we go out.
"Man, this feels good," Suga sighs as I approach him with an extra gun of mine.
"Yeah, I love the feel of the wind between my legs," I smile.
"It's not just about the fucking nudists, stupid," Suga says as he gently hits the back of my head. "We'll get anything we want... nobody will get in our way once they see our guns!"
"Which ones?!" Daichi laughs loudly as he holds up both of his arms and flexes.
"But even if we don't get what we want, we'll still attract attention for the cause..." I intervene.
"Look, Shoyo," Suga sighs. "The cause is great and all but we'll have so much power if this shit goes through! That's what matters, not some stupid belief about whether you can show your balls at the mall or not."
"Balls at the mall?" I repeat quietly. I thought we were all on the same page. Naturalism is about humanism, equality, and progressivism... It's not about hurting other people to get what we want.
A few minutes later, there's a knock on the door. I walk over to answer it and see Yamaguchi on the other side, fully clothed and not in the black rope we discussed we'd all wear at first.
"Hey," he says quietly. "Can we talk?"
I nod as I reach for my rope and step outside so the two of us can have a private moment. "What's going on?"
"Listen, you were right about what you said yesterday," he sighs. "I can't do this anymore, Shoyo. I'm a manga artist now. I just got published in a magazine and I was a big hit. I can't fuck it all up because I stormed the government for naturalist reasons... You get that, right?"
"Yeah," I sigh. "I get it. This isn't going the way I planned it would either. You don't need to explain yourself to me. Get outta here before something happens, Yams."
"Thanks, Shoyo," he smiles softly. "Be safe tonight."
"I will," I nervously nod back at him. "Same to you."
I then wave as I watch Yamaguchi walk away. However, I don't have much time to contemplate my thoughts before Sugawara and Daichi approach me on either side. Suga hands me my AK while Daichi rubs the top of my head.
"Ready?" Daichi asks proudly.
"As I'll ever be," I gulp, my stomach in knots as I respond.
"Then let's do this!"
Less than an hour later I was in handcuffs. I was read my rights and stuffed into the back of a police car. Both Sugawara and Daichi ran off before getting caught. It was only me and two other random people who ended up behind bars.
I never thought I'd actually be charged with 'Advocating the Overthrow of Government', but there I was with that label hanging over my head for the remainder of my life. Though I knew my life would be drastically changed after the charge, I had no idea the insanity that was to follow.
