"I'm thinking of going back to the future"

Baji:Huh? Why? Hakkai joined the Black Dragons. So you haven't achieved anything, right?

"To protect Yuzuha from Taiju's violence, Hakkai's gonna kill Taiju"

Baji:Yup, that's what we've guessed

"But, Mitsuya freed Yuzuha from Taiju. Hakkai doesn't have a reason to kill Taiju anymore. Shouldn't that change things?"

Baji:Maybe. But what if nothing's changed?

"Then I'll just come back here"

Baji:How're you supposed to shake Takemichi's hand if you're in jail?

"...Damn"

Baji:If you go to the future now, you might not be able to come back. It's too risky. Besides, Mitsuya's the one who freed Yuzuha. Not you

"...Well ok. You don't need to be so blunt about it"

Baji:If you haven't changed anything, then the future won't change either. Will it?

"Good point"

Baji:You're such a dumbass, (N/N)! Are you really 27 years old inside?

"Shut up! I saved you, didn't I?"

??:(N/N)!!

Baji and (Y/N) looked back to see Hakkai a little ways away from them

Hakkai:I finally found you

Hakkai, Baji, and (Y/N) decided to loiter around in a small park

Hakkai:Can you guys tell Taka-chan...that I said thanks?

"...Sure? Why?"

Hakkai:...My home life is complicated. We don't have a mom in our family, and since we were little, our dad's hardly ever been at home. So, the one in charge...is Taiju, the oldest sibling. He's been a "king" since he was a kid. Though he was just bigger and plain stronger than the other kids...more than anything, he's great at capturing people's hearts. All of Taiju's followers love him. Taiju's an expert at using violence. He doesn't pull any punches. If he beats someone, he does it thoroughly. Even to his own siblings

'...Pretty messed up family if you ask me'

Hakkai:I...thought that love was supposed to be painful, because that's how I was raised. That was normal for me. Taka-chan turned my entire world upside down. It was a real shock. Even though he could've been playing, he had to look after those two little kids. His home life looked really hard, but he smiled about it. When I ate the food Taka-chan made...I don't really know why, but it made me cry like a baby. I was like, "This miso soup is so salty." And...he also told me something... "Use violence to protect." Back then, I swore...to protect my family

'Kid's got nice morals'

Hakkai:Since then, I've been taking Yuzuha's beatings for her. I protected her this whole time. But he...broke his promise. He hit Yuzuha, just like always

"Dirty little bastard"

Baji:What an asshole

Hakkai:You see? He think nothing of the agreement he made...with Taka-chan. He'll never...let Yuzuha go free

"Well, luckily for you, I'm an expert at...things. So, what can we do to help?"

Hakkai:...I'm embarrassed to admit it... But even now, just standing before Taiju makes me shake. I can't do a damn thing. If Taiju wasn't around...that's why I decided
