She nodded in acknowledgment and followed his grueling pace without complaint. It was rare for Amaya and Hiroto to agree upon something. But after they woke up and found out that Masaki drugged them both and they didn't manage to be part of the fight. Anger boiled deeply in their system and they drove to Sannoh Rengokai to face him.

They both bold inside Itoken Diner in one movement heading over where Masaki was sitting. Fires of fury were smoldering in their dark narrowed eyes as they surrounded Masaki. They started talking fast at the same time and each time they opened their mouth they sounded even angrier. Their crazy act won everyone's attention and now curious they wanted to know what made the pair so angry.

"Stop!" Masaki shouted and pushed them off his personal space. "Stop talking together! I can't understand what you are saying!"

White knuckles from clenching his fist too hard, and gritted teeth from effort to remain silent, as Hiroto spoke first. "Aniki, you drug us?" he almost kicked the chair that was in front of them. "What were you thinking?"

"That I could perfectly fight Mighty Warriors without your help!" Masaki randomly answered him. He sipped his beer calmly looking at Hiroto with a smile on his face. "Did you rest enough?"

"Huh!? Are you kidding!" Hiroto glared at Masaki ready to punch him directly in the face. The only reason he was not attacking was that his damn rips were killing him. And he couldn't admit right there and then that he was hurting. "I think I can handle myself around fights!" he stated strongly.

Masaki cast a glance at Amaya and then at Hiroto. "Hiroto-kun, I know you can fight! But I don't think your body was ready to fight!" Masaki explained and tapped his shoulder.

"Oe! Are you know deciding what I can or cannot do!" Hiroto flipped and took a step closer only to be cut off by Amaya.

Amaya took a deep breath and went on "I get it! Your pervert brother should not be fighting. But why on Earth would you drug me! Masaki! Answer me now!" she cried out forcing herself to remain as calm as she could.

"Ask your brother about that!" Masaki responded, "He asked me to!"

Amaya turned and gazed at Cobra "Eh? You were behind that!"

Cobra was staring at the angry pair since they stormed inside the store. He also remained calm but he knew eventually he had to explain. "Yes! One of you was ready to fight an enemy out of her leak." he serious looked at Amaya "When was the last time you fought! Five years ago .. 10? You wouldn't last one round! And the other..." he faced Hiroto "was severely injured and isn't visiting a doctor."

"What?" Hiroto suddenly interrupted them and locked his gaze with Amaya's "Did you tattle to your brother about me?"

"I didn't need too. You forget he already knew about your injury! You pervert!" Amaya shouted loudly letting her anger taking hold of her.

"Idiot! It never occurred to you he would end up contacting Masaki!" he uttered under his breath.

Angry eyes were just the start, then came the strut, the slamming, and the clipped words. Amaya and Hiroto were lost in their own world once again arguing and ignoring the rest.

"Here we go again!" Masaki murmured and took a seat. "Don't bother to wait. They can keep it up for hours!"

Cobra was astonished "They do that a lot!?" he questioned at their odd act.

Masaki nodded, "Every single day, as long as they are in the same room that's what you get!"

Itokan Diner fell into silence observing the fighting pair. In the beginning, it was quite a show and everyone watched it. Yet as the minutes were passing they started getting annoyed. Until Yamato couldn't take it any longer.
