Wednesday, 10.30 p.m.
Here's a question for myself. What was the thing that I scared off when I was facing some Moebius members?
The answer is...
Well, isn't it obvious? I traumatized them with the belief that I'm a serial killer, so basically a nightmare.
...
Anyways...
The ambulance had already left, with Takemichi inside. I already told Takemichi to take care of Draken in it, so that he could keep an eye on him. Hopefully, Draken has a higher chance of surviving this time, thanks to the first-aid.
Seriously, did Takemichi and his friends have not attempted to treat Draken's wood? For real, tho.
The police were able to arrest Kiyomasa and the remaining goons, so they'll have a super bad time there. While I wanted to tell them the situation, the police may end us arresting us, and will probably won't believe us.
As the sirens went far away from our surroundings, all that's left were me, Mukuro, the two girls, and the Mizo Middle Gang. I can't rest for long now though, for I need to see if Draken will survive.
"Mukuro, do you know where I parked the car?" I asked her. She told me that it's just nearby. Confused at first, I decided to check the nearest parking lot, and funny enough, it's actually where she described it.
Did it follow me? Or did it know my location?
Whatever. Now's not the time to think about these things. I quickly got in the car, starting its engine, and ready to drive. But there's one more thing that I have to do.
Have you ever wonder how Takemichi's friends, Hina and Emma arrived at the hospital? Well, I'm about to fill in that plothole.
"Guys!" I shouted as the car is now visible to them. "What are you waiting for? Get in!"
Mukuro wasted no time and she already got in it, sitting beside me. The others were either surprised about the request or confused about how I was able to drive a car.
"I SAID GET IN THE CAR!!" I shouted, trying to do a meme or something. Then my dumbass remember that excluding Mukuro, most of them don't even know about memes, since it haven't become quite popular yet.
The six people; Emma, Hinata, Akkun, Yamagishi, Takuya, and Makoto; proceeds to get in on the car. The four boys choose to sit behind, while the girls decided to sit in the middle seats. Don't you guys remember that my car is literally a van, right?
"Buckle yet?" I said, to which all of them said yes. But just when the driving begins, Takuya asked me something.
"Do you know how to drive?"
"Kinda," I responded.
"Even so, how do you get a driver's license to drive?" he said while noticing my driver's license leaking out of my pocket.
...
"Who says that I have an authentic driver's license?" But before he could say anything, I proceeds to play a song and sped off.
And for those wondering, here's the song:
3rd pov
Meanwhile, at the parking lot, all members from both gangs are laying on the ground. Some are trying to get up from their exhaustion, while others remained unconscious.
Mitsuya was sitting on the road, tired like the rest of the gang members. He then heard Smiley's voice, who's being helped by a shirtless Mucho due to his foot being busted. Beside them was Baji, who's walking towards the lavender boy.
When Mitsuya asked about Mikey's whereabouts, Baji pointed to the two people standing. Both of them remained standing, despite both of them are exhausted by now. Under the rain, Hanma's hair is now what Nishinoya have when he's wet.
"Haha," said Hanma. "I knew this is so tiresome, Mikey. You ain't even out of breath yet. What are you, a monster?"
"Just shut up and die." Mikey responded.
Just as them glaring at each other became what feels like forever, a man arrived on his motorbike.
"Hanma-san, it's about time."
As the sirens of police became near, most of the delinquents decided to evacuate the site, to evade capture. But before he could leave the place, Hanma decided to announce something.
"Mikey! Soon, we're gonna form the most badass biker gang in all of Kanto!"
...
"VALHALLA!!"
...
"And I'm the first vice-president, Shuji Hanma. Remember this, Mikey."
'From now on, Toman shall no longer know peace." was the last thing he said, as he drove off from the area. Mikey then heard an ambulance siren, as an ambulance went past him from far away.
Quickly, he proceeds to run towards his motorcycle and starts its engine. He then sped off into the hospital, hoping his best friend's not dying.
Takemichi pov
As the ambulance speeds off to the nearest hospital, I sat down on one of the seating, hoping that Draken can survive. After all, everything will be in vain if Draken-kun dies right after we won!
According to the medical workers, Draken's in a pretty bad state, as he's losing a lot of blood from that deep stab wound. Thankfully, that Mukuro girl was able to temporarily bandaged him, so his blood is not fully gone.
Please. Please be okay!
Suddenly, I saw that his hand is moving, wanting to grab something. I proceeds to hold his hand, as I saw him being awake.
"Thanks, Takemitchy. I really owe you this." Draken said.
"Please don't say stuff like that. This isn't you at all." I said, putting on a smiling face. No sh*t, I'm actually worried about him, hoping that the worst outcome will not occur.
"Take care of... Mikey for me." he said. Which he closes his eye, and the stats dropped to zero.
"He's going into cardiac arrest!!" one of the workers said.
"His JCS has dropped! Initiate CPR!"
Cardiac arrest...? No way! No way!
...
"DRAKEN-KUN!!"
1st pov
As the song's about to end, we manage to arrive at the hospital on time. And let me tell you, it was an extremely fast ride. Thank god I activated auto mode, which does help me out.
Hinata, Emma, Akkun, Yamagishi, Makoto and Takuya felt dizzy the entire ride, to the point where I have a feeling that some of them will vomit or faint. Mukuro's fine, as she was somewhat able to get through that ride feeling fine. But then again, she's not good at expressing her emotions.
Anyways, just as everyone was getting out of the car, an ambulance arrived with Draken's body. I can hear them saying that he's in cardiac arrest.
Hearing that, all of us quickly went to the hospital, with Akkun and Mukuro helping Emma and Hinata out. Eventually, we managed to reach the operation room. Along with Takemichi.
"Takemichi-kun." Hina said, alerting Takemichi. She then asks him about Draken's state. He told us that Draken's currently in critical condition, going into a cardiac arrest.
"No way..." said Akkun.
"Cardiac arrest?" said Yamagishi. An abrupt loss of heart function!?
I'm now scared if Draken will survive this time. Remember, he barely survived in the original timeline, so I don't know if he end up surviving in this timeline.
And I'm not the only one here, as Emma's crying right now, requiring Hinata to calm her down. Mukuro is just sitting on a bench, looking into a soldier magazine.
"Takemichi! How's Draken?" shouted someone, who's running alongside Peh-Yan. It's Mitsuya.
...
Mitsuya shouted damn it after Takemichi told him about Draken's condition. Takemichi explained further, saying that his pulse went down before arriving. But before he could finish, the three people saw Mikey.
"Mikey-kun. Draken-kun is-"
"Yeah, I heard it. Where's the waiting room?"
He proceeds to walk to the front of the room, then walks to a nearby bench to sit.
"Ken-chin is the type who always keeps his promise. He's not gonna die here. He'd never been this dishonest before."
"He promised me that we'll take over this country," he said with a smile. "So Emma, Mitsuya, Peh-Yan, and Takemitchy. Believe in Ken-chin."
He's right. In a situation like this, we shouldn't lose hope that a miracle will happen. Man, Mikey really is great at putting on a smile.
A 'smile', huh?...
Wednesday, 11.45 p.m.
Everyone is now silently waiting. Hoping that Draken will be okay. Then, the light of the operation room went dark, signalling that they have finished, waiting for the results. No matter how late it is.
Two medical workers walk out of the room, alerting us about the results. They informed us that they manage to prevent his life from passing. In other words,
"The surgery was a success."
Everyone was happy about it. Some were crying tears of joy, while others were celebrating the good news. And then,...
"HELL YEAH!" shouted Takemichi. Did he forget that this is a hospital, meaning no loud noises?
Oh, well. I don't mind. I'm relieved that he survived, as both me and Mukuro's efforts did not worsen his chance of survival, but rather increase it instead.
As the Mizo Middle Gang were celebrating Draken's survival, Mitsuya then told them to keep the voice down and tell Toman about the good news. While they ran out of the hospital, Takemichi stopped to check on Peh-Yan.
Peh-Yan states that he cannot face the rest of Toman, after what happened.
"Peh-Yan," said Mitsuya. 'Everyone knows that you did this for Pah-chin's sake."
"Mitsuya..."
"But out of all of us, Draken was the one who think about him the most."
He explained that ever since the incident, he and Pah-chin's parents visit him in jail every day. However, because only relatives are allowed to meet him, he'd take whatever he had to give, and wait outside for the whole meeting.
"That was the person you tried to kill!" Mitsuya said. "So you better apologize to everyone. To Pah-Chin, to Draken, to everyone..."
"He's right, Peh-Yan," said Mukuro, who just got up from her seat. "While I don't know what's going on, you almost kill someone that is concerned about your friend."
"Um..., who are you?" Peh-Yan asked.
"Mukuro," she said.
"Thank you, um... Mukuro?" he replied.
"You're welcome," she said, as she continues to read the magazine. Both Mitsuya and Peh-Yan then ran out of the hospital, getting ready to tell the news.
I proceed to check my phone, which reads midnight. This means, today is August 4th here. In other words,...
...
We managed to save Draken from his fate...
HELL YEAH!!
Thursday, 12.00 a.m.
Both Mukuro and I were about to go back to the van, when we saw Takemichi ran past us. He must be finding Mikey.
"Mukuro, you go wait in the car. Message me in case I go missing." I said, as I quickly follows Takemichi. Poor Mukuro, she didn't even have time to respond. Even sadder that she doesn't get a lot of dialogue in this chapter.
...
Anyways, as I was saying, I saw that Takemichi have stopped. I then went to him, looking at his direction.
There, lying on the ground crying, was none other than Mikey himself, out of relief that Ken is alive. I mean, if I were in his position, I'll definitely cry too. Because of The Three Deities Arc.
As Mikey's loved ones either suffer or die, it affects him on a very personal level, which leads to the birth of his darkness, loss. Considering that he lost Shinichiro, it's pretty clear that a trace of it is already present within him.
I proceed to walk towards him, interrupting Mikey in the process. He saw me, as I go to sit beside him. I already know he's not okay, so we can skip that question.
"Mikey, you can help me if you want," I said to him. "Thank god that Draken's alive."
Mikey then proceeds to hug me in tears, to which I hug him back. This short dorayaki-man needs to go to therapy soon, but since the other deaths haven't happened yet, it's too early to do so.
But then, I suddenly let out tears from my eyes. Guess looking at others crying, affects me as well. Besides, it's not that he could've die here...
...
But rather, him potentially dying in the Final Arc left me in tears, and despair....
Author-kun here.
Phew, thank god this chapter's done. Just one more chapter and the Moebius Arc will be finished.
Other than that, I don't know what to say.
Till then, see you in the next chapter!
-Author-kun.
