Yumi: No, I'll follow them.
Roy: Then so will I.
Yumi: You change quickly Roy.
Roy: And so do you.
*The two vanish*
*In the forest*
*A waterfall can be seen running smoothly*
Gekkō: We knew what path we had to follow because of Kurokage and Lady Fubuki.
Senkō: But I guess, now, we're no different from this waterfall. Racing to an end with no future in sight.
Gekkō: What should we do know?
Senkō: The only thing now is live the live we loved before. Back to those empty days.
Gekkō: I can't handle that.
Senkō: Neither can I.
Gekkō: Then I guess, that means,
*Back with Roy & Yumi*
Yumi POV: I need to find them before it's too late.
Roy: *Jumping across* Where are they?
*Back at the waterfall*
Senkō: *Looks at Gekkō*
Gekkō: *Nods*
*The twins walk to the edge of the waterfall*
Roy: AYO WHAT THE FUDGE!? WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?
Yumi: Gekkō! Senkō! You don't have to do this!
Roy: YOU HAVE SO MUCH TO LIVE FOR! COME ON! I should probably lower down my voice let's be honest.
Gekkō: We don't want to see you just go away!
Roy: We won't.
Senkō: All of Kurokage's beliefs were lose then Fubuki betrayed us. We lost all purpose in life.
Yumi: Lost beliefs, betrayal, is that all really worth dying for?
Gekkō: You don't know what we're going through!
Yumi: True. I don't know.
Roy: But I do. And I've seen it first hand. Especially from others. I know what it's like alright? Don't just assume.
Senkō: Just leave us alone.
Roy: My whole life I dedicated my life, strength, energy, will, soul, for the protection of others. And even retired, I won't stop.
Yumi: All we want is to talk to you.
Senkō: Talk?
Yumi: Yes if you wouldn't mind.
Roy: But I wouldn't be surprised if you did mind.
Yumi: Maybe you would like to hear more about my grandfather. Particularly, his sense of justice.
Senkō: There's nothing left to say.
Gekkō: We already knew we were wrong so what else is there? Clearly, we don't know Kurokage as well as you.
Senkō: Kurokage's justice is something we will never truly understand.
Roy: This is the problem. You won't listen damnit.
Yumi: Well I believe in you. I believe you'll do just fine.
Yumi: *Holds Senkō's hand*
Senkō: *Steps back a bit*
Roy: Nope you are not falling.
Yumi: Oh. It must be freezing. My hand must be cold.
Senkō: It's not actually. I'm surprised. Your hand is warm.
Yumi: I see. Then I'm glad.
Roy: *Holds Gekkō's hand* How about mine?
Gekkō: EEK IT'S HOT!!
Roy: Oops. Forgot. Devil's are used to fire. Sorry.
Yumi: This is what I learned from my grandfather Kurokage. That was his justice.
Roy: I feel like that's supposed to symbolize something but I'm not sure what.
Yumi: Warmth, is important, is precious. *Hugs Gekkō* Justice exists to protect the ones we love.
Roy: This... Is fine I guess.
Yumi: Do you understand how I feel? And this is how my grandfather felt.
Roy: So do I, Reed, Mike, and the rest of the old and new generation.
Gekkō: *Begins to tear up* Yes.
Roy: No, no, don't do that. I'm tearing up too. And by the way, WHAT THE HELL YOU TWO!? THIS IS REALLY AWKWARD!!!
Homura: Well looks like our cover had been blown.
Asuka: Yeah.
Homura: I guess those two are safe now right?
Roy: I hope.
Asuka: I hope so. Maybe they should stay with the others. Homura, Roy, can you go ask Ikaruga?
Roy: Where do you think your going Asuka?
Homura: Ikaruga is your friend so you go tell her. So is Roy but that's besides the point. And there's still a lot of stuff we have to talk about!
Roy: I'll be with Yumi and the twins. *Walks back*
Homura: Alright, for starters-
Asuka: Homura, I said if I beat you, you'd accept my feelings.
Homura: Yeah I do.
Asuka: Okay, I need to do this. I have to follow the path of the Shinobi until its end. *Vanishes*
Homura: What the- Asuka!
Roy: Aw damnit Asuka! Why do you gotta be such a pain in the arse!
*The next day at Hanzō*
Roy: THAT ASUKA REALLY SHOULD KNOW HER MANNERS!!!
Reed: And you should know your alcohol tolerance. You had 30 bottles.
Roy: GIMME ANOTHER ONE-
Reed: *Knocks him out* There we go.
Orange: Finally, he shut up.
Blue: So that's how he is while screaming I guess.
Ikaruga: What we do right now is wait for Rin-sensei to give us orders.
Reed: Roy would probably scream "I WANNA FIGHT" and I have to agree. I wanna fight.
Ikaruga: We're not allowed to go out.
Chosen one: Unfortunate.
Red: Sucks.
Yellow: Atleast there's wifi here and we are safe from danger.
Green: I mean, I dunno. I'm kinda in the middle.
Katsuragi: Well in that case, *Slams down 100+ cups of ramen* Ramen time!
Reed: Where the hell did you get the money for that? And where did you buy it?
Yagyū: Where did you even get those? And why can't we eat in the cafeteria?
Reed: My point.
Katsuragi: They don't even have any ramen cups just regular food.
Reed: And we don't have any regular food. Just ramen cups.
Orange: Most basic and most effective comeback ever.
Yagyū: What is with you and being obsessed with ramen?
Ikaruga: How about you Gekkō and Senkō what would you like to eat.
Yellow: I mean, we can deliver some food here. And if we want to go order dine-in or take-out we can always just speed there and there we go.
Senkō: It doesn't matter...
Gekkō: I don't care...
Katsuragi: Then instant Ramen is the winner!
Reed: I guess I'll take delivery here Yellow.
Orange: I guess it's better than ramen for the next week.
Reed: Me and Roy have loaded bank accounts.
Yellow: Okay then, I'll take your orders.
Red: I don't mind Ramen.
Katsuragi: *Basically names every ramen in the world* You name it I have it! And for desert, *Dashes to Ikaruga*
Chosen one: *Slapped in the face* Ow.
Katusragi: *Grabs Ikaruga's chest* We can have melons!
Blue: Should've known she'd do that.
Ikaruga: Grr.... *Pulls out Enma*
Reed: OH SHI-
Ikaruga: Go on and I'll end you!
*Enma begins to radiate a demon aura*
Reed: Yo, yo ,yo! Don't mess around with that! *Grabs Enma* Quiet you demon!
*Enma powers down*
Yagyū: *Walks to the twins* Here's squid flavored ramen. It's the best.
Green: That's cuz you have squid bias~
*At the balcony*
Reed: *Quietly eating his food*
Roy: *Chowing down on Ramen* Raw is better than cooked. Change my mind.
Girls: *Slurping on the Ramen*
Gekkō: Hey,
Ikaruga: Yes? Is something wrong?
Gekkō: Aren't you still mad at us?
Senkō: You know, for all the things we did to you.
Roy: Oh I am most definitely still ticked off! But I'm storing the anger for when I need it.
Hibari: You mean when you kidnaped us and tied us up?
Gekkō: Yes.
Katsuragi: Yeah duh. I'm mad at myself. For losing to you.
Red: I thought you'd be actually mad at them.
Katsuragi: You caught us by surprise but it's no excuse. Even with a smoke bomb.
Roy: They just didn't wanna deal with gear 4th.
Katsuragi: Should have been prepared so no hard feelings.
Reed: So do I.
Katsuragi: Hey, you better eat your ramen quickly or else it's gonna get soggy!
Gekkō: Uhm okay.
Ikaruga: We'll practice to get even stronger. And maybe we can fight again someday.
Reed: One day, I hope I'll be able to truly surpass my prime. I wanna get better every single day.
Roy: And I'm gonna make sure that I'll well and truly surpass you!
Reed: We'll see about that.
Roy: YOU THINK I'M WEAK BIG BRAIN!?
Reed: Now, now, don't worry about it.
Yagyū: If we have a rematch against them I'll definitely win.
Roy: Hopefully. You got owned.
Yagyū: If you want to we can fight right now.
Roy: Let's see who's stomach explodes mid fight first.
Hibari: You shouldn't say things like that Yagyū! If you will be mean I don't wanna be friends with you anymore!
Chosen one: Here comes the ultimate simp.
Yellow: I can only see this going one way.
Yagyū: Seriously!? If this is a joke it ain't funny! Please don't tell me your serious.
Blue: Why~ is it cuz-
Yellow: Stop it. Your ruining it.
Hibari: I am. Unless you say to Gekkō and Senkō let's be friends and do out best together.
Yagyū: Uh... *Forcefully smiles*
Roy: AHAHA- *Falls off the balcony*
Reed: You good?
Roy: *Floating* Yes I am.
Yagyū: Let's be friends and do our best together.
Reed: YOHOHOHO!!! This is great!
Gekkō: *Smiles* Right.
Katsuragi: *Grabs Senkō's chest*
Roy: *Climbs up* I'm up- Come on.
Senkō: Stop that!
Katsuragi: Another friend you should relax a little! *Snickers*
Senkō: Let go of me!
Roy: What satisfaction do you get from doing that?
Katsuragi: Don't tell me you've never done it before.
Roy: Bro, I'm not married. And I don't understand.
Senkō: *Dashes away* We can't get together yet! We are missing someone very important.
Roy: It's either Asuka, or Mike. Most probably Asuka cuz you don't know about him.
Senkō: Mike? I don't think I recall you talking about this man. Or maybe I just forgot.
Roy: I'll explain later. But as for Asuka.
Gekkō: We still don't have news of her do you?
Katsuragi: *Dashes towards Gekkō* Hehe- *Stopped*
Reed: Come on Katsu, stop this. Senkō, grab your sister and bring her away.
Katsuragi: Come on!
Senkō: Why aren't we out looking for Asuka right now? Aren't you all worried about her?
Hibari: No. I think she just has something to deal with on her own.
Reed: While she may be stubborn but she's responsible. She'll be just fine.
Ikaruga: And once she's done I'm sure she'll return back to us.
Yellow: Probability is pretty low by my calculations.
Roy: Calculations are useless. It'll never work. Calculations can't define a person.
Yagyū: He's right. We just need to believe in her.
Senkō: Believe in her?
Katsuragi: Yeah pretty much. I think it's the best we can do for Asuka right now.
Red: It's not like we can force her. That'll tear us apart even more.
*At Kagura's shrine*
Asuka: *Arrives at the shrine*
Naraku: Hello Asuka.
Asuka: Is Kagura here?
Naraku: She's busy. She's storing power for the upcoming battle. I can't allow anyone to see her right now.
