it hurts, isn't it?
Third Person's Point Of View
it was a cold day to celebrate something. in the middle of january, it's not enough for the sunrise to make it warm.
today was the anniversary of black dragon led by shinichiro sano, mikey's older brother. toman's third division captain, takemitchi hanagaki and his member, seishu inui, promised to protect that gang in every situation no matter what.
"so the 11th generation is born in the black dragon's founding day, huh? that's interesting."
the two of them was alarmed by the familiar voice coming behind them. they could already sense the danger just by the presence of him.
"you're hanagaki takemitchi! " his decieving eyes landed kn the blonde. sweat started to rolled down his forehead when he called him by his name.
this guy... is he the other one who sabotaged to kidnapped y/n kiyoshi? he couldn't help but asked himself. he was more dangerous than he'd ever expected that his knees were already weakened right now.
"izana!! you bastard! what did you do to kokonoi?!" inui beside him startedto attacked the guy infront of them, which made him surprised. right, it was izana who recruited inui's friend, kokonoi.
izana just gave him a sly smile, like he wasn't bothered at everything. his deceiving eyes were slowly destructing every single piece of someone's soul.
"i didn't do anything at all ... he's the one who insisted to join my gang." takemitchi's heart pounded so bad. it was a trap. a trap to forced kokonoi to joined their gang.
"let me go. i'm here to see my brother's grave." his voice were as calm as his eyes were already an empty shell, "now that koko's now with us, i don't have any interest with you already, inui." he added. but that made inui more furious as he was ready to pounce at him in any moment.
"wait! inui-kun! hold-on! " takemitchi felt more panicked as he didn't want to ruin this day.
he wanted to save everything especially y/n-chan, as he knows how did mikey suffered from the every timeline in the future. she's the reason why mikey become notorious criminal and broke the toman apart.
but that's not the reason yet.
it was kisaki who manipulates katsurou kiyoshi. he manipulated him to abduct his sister and make mikey weak, just like what izana wanted. they have a one specific goal, is to break him apart until they already devoured him into the darkness.
that's why he needed to save her. he already did save hina and now it's time to save mikey and y/n.
he was snapped out of his thoughts when he heard some footsteps coming through their direction. inui and izana stopped and tilted their head to see who it was.
it was mikey.
shit! this is bad! he cursed on his mind. he could see mikey's serious expression when he saw izana. but what's more heating the tension was emma is just behind them. she's scared when her eyes landed on izana.
"get emma away for a while, takemitchi. " mikey's authorative voice rang into his ears, that made shivers down through his spine.
when the two leave them for a bit, takemitchi was listening on emma's opinion. the younger sano couldn't help but felt saddened on y/n's dissapperance. she wanted to help as much as she could, but she just felt weak and knows nothing.
"mikey... he's been quiet since y/n dissappear." her golden eyes stare at his brother's back, while he was having a serious conversation with inui and his long-lost brother, izana.
"you know just like us, he also cried. y/n was once our family. she just escaped from his abusive brother who was the reason why she dissapeared right now." emma's head lied a little bit, feeling dissapointed about what happened.
"but i just can't helped them." suddenly, a tear falls from her face.
it takes time for emma to be silent but then again changes the topic. takemitchi couldn't help but feel pity about the girl that he also wanted to help them.
"oh, do you want soda? i'll buy you one." she said and walked down the near vendo machine in-between them. takemitchi then hum in response. after emma had press the button on the vending machine, he couldn't help but zoned out again.
he was still figuring out if emma was been also a part of mikey's darkness in the future.
he didn't quiet seen her for a long time when he leaped through time.
the vending machine clanged which means the soda arrived. emma immediately pulled out two soda in can out of the small compartment in the machine.
"hmm, what was that? " she paused on walking when she noticed a roar of motorbike a few meters away from them. takemitchi also noticed that which made him alarmed but completely in confusion.
on the other hand, a bat was ready to swing on its victim.
a surprisingly banged sound was heard outside the cemetery, making mikey halt from his place. his mouth agaped at the sudden loudness of the sound making him more curious on what's happening.
their conversation was interrupted for a bit but all he did care was takemitchi and emma is nowhere to be found. that made him more in panic. he's afraid of losing someone again. not his sister or another friend. he also needed to save y/n for sake.
he could feel his heart throbbed when he immediately sprinted down outside.
"takemitchi? " he spunned out.
but hearing his sobs and his sister was lying cold down, laying in blood ...
his world finally turned upside down.
the young blonde broke his voice,
"mikey-kun ... e-emma. "
