"Shit...damn it..." (Y/n) muttered as she pressed the cloths harder onto Draken's wound, looking at his pained expression from time to time.
"DRAKEN! (Y/N)!" Takemichi yelled kneeling down next the boy's head, panicking and calling out for Mikey who was a little farther away.
"Takemitchy...what happened with Ken-chin?!" The boy yelled while knocking other gang members out.
"Draken-kun...he... He has been stabbed!" Takemichi yelled back, tears streaming down his face.
Mikey froze in his spot, now able to see the trio a little better and started walking their way.
"Move away, jackasses!" He yelled, trying to reach the three,but it was hard from the Moebius members who had him surrounded.
Out of nowhere, he got pulled by the collar of his shirt and thrown in the air, but luckily landed on his feet in time.
"Hanma!" He yeller in rage as the taller laughed.
"Found you...Mikey!"
The two started their fight with kicks and punches being thrown.
Mikey was sending worried glances Draken and (Y/n)'s way from time to time.
'Great... Ken-chin... I need to save him, I can't lose him too and (Y/n)... She looks so distraught and scared...' He glowred a little as he punched Hanma in the face, drawing blood from his lips, but the taller still didn't back down.
'It's over...it's all over... Draken is dead...' The blonde boy thought, crying harder as he watched the taller boy's unconscious form.
"Takemichi... Takemichi?!" (Y/n) yelled, catching the boy's attention.
"H-huh?"
"We need to get Draken-san to a hospital! And we need to do that now!" She said, gripping the said boy's hand tighter.
"W-what?! He is still alive?!" Takemichi asked, hope filling his eyes as the girl nodded her head.
"He is... His pulse is weak, but still there! Please we need to hurry up!"
"A-ah..."
"Takemitchy!" They heard Mikey yell and turned to look at him fighting Hanma.
"Take care of Ken-chin and (Y/n)-chin for me!" He glared at the boy as he punched Hanma in the face.
"M-me?!" The faux blonde asked.
Just in that moment, Draken started caughing up blood.
"Shit!" (Y/n) yelled,wiping the blood off of his mouth.
"We need to go now! Draken-san, everything will be alright!" (Y/n) said as she got up from the ground along with Takemichi.
"What are you doing?" He asked, watching his friend put Draken on her back.
"I have to carry him there, he is in no condition to walk alone. Come on, Mikey-kun and the rest have it all under control."
"I can carry him instead, you have your head injury to worry about."
"Not now Takemichi! The head injury is nothing compared to this! Come on now, we can't waste our time!"
She yelled, not that she was mad at her friend, just frustrated with the whole situation.
Takemichi kept silent as he followed her,too stunned with the yell.
'She...she never yelled like that before... Is it because it's Draken?' Pushing away the thoughts, he followed them silently, looking out for possible danger.
"Are you sure he isn't too heavy?" Takemichi asked and (Y/n) shook her head.
"I am used to carrying you and Takuya after fights, nothing new to me."
The two were now a little farther away from the fight and walking down the peaceful streets of a neighbourhood.
'We will save you Draken-san... Don't worry!' (Y/n) thought as she saw the boy cough up blood.
"Draken-kun?! This isn't good..." Takemichi said on worry and stopped in his tracks as he heard Hinata and Emma calling his name from behind him.
"Hinata? Hinata call an ambulance!" (Y/n) yelled, turning around to face the two girls.
"Ah yes!" The short haired girl nodded and took out her phone. Emma was standing next to her, watching in sadness and rage the (h/c) girl.
"They said they are on the way! I told them our location!" Hinata told (Y/n) as she helped her put Draken down on the ground.
"Thank God..." She muttered, holding Draken's head while pressing onto the wound again.
"Will he be alright?" Hinata asked as she, Emma and Takemichi observed the duo.
"I hope so..."
"What do you mean 'Hope so'?!" Emma yelled, surprising (Y/n).
"Umm I can't tell it right now Emma-san. If the ambulance-"
"Shut up shut up already, you stupid bitch!" Emma yelled again, walking closer to her.
"Emma, stop now." Hinata warned, glaring at the blonde, but she got ignored.
"Emma-san I understand your rage but-"
"I told you to shut up! You come into my-our life and think you can change up the dynamic?! Who do you think you are?! And now you pretend to care, after he is on the edge of dying?!"
(Y/n) looked at the blonde girl in confusion, not understanding why she was mad at her.
"Listen, we are all exhausted and shaken up. Emma-san I fail to see what you want to tell me, collect your thoughts first and then say them. Your yelling is not helping us right now."
(Y/n) tried to stay calm, both Takemichi and Hinata could see she was struggling to not lash out.
"Emma-san she is right-"
"I said shut up! This is all her fault! Why didn't you watch out over him better?! Why?!" Emma yelled, taking out the phone (Y/n) gave her and threw is at her injured head.
"(Y/n)!" Takemichi yelled, running over to her as Hinata walked over to Emma.
"Are you alright?" Takemichi asked as the girl nodded.
"Y-yes... I might just need stitches..." She muttered, holding onto the new bleeding wound.
"Shut up already!" They turned to look at the two girls, surprised from the yell.
"Hinata/Hina?!" The two yelled as they saw Emma looking at Hinata with a stunned expression.
"Hinata?"
"Why are you going after (Y/n)?! She isn't the one who injured him! She is trying her best to make the wound stop bleeding and carried him all the way here, with a head injury at that!" Hinata glared, pointing at the bleeding girl.
"You have done nothing so far but complained and cried, which I'd be fine with of you didn't attack (Y/n) for no reason! Get it together!" Hinata's words shut the girl completely up, she watched the girl walk away from her and to where the trio was.
"Hinata..."
"Not now."
"Hinata... You did call an ambulance, right?" (Y/n) asked softly as the girl smiled and nodded.
"Yes, but they said it will be harder to reach us since the streets are crowded from the festival."
"What?!"
"I should have continued carrying him..." (Y/n) muttered, now more worried than she already was.
'What is the deal with her?' Emma thought, glaring harder at the (h/c) girl.
'He already loves her, why is she trying so hard around him?'
"Huh?" Takemichi got up as he noticed Kiyomasa and his group walking their way.
"Why are they not helping Mikey-kun and the rest out?" (Y/n) wondered as she saw the familiar uniforms.
"Who is he? Do you two know him?" Hinata asked her friend.
"You could say that... That's Kiyomasa-san, he is in Toman too. Takemichi and him had a little... Misunderstanding I guess..." (Y/n) explained, not wanting to go into details now.
'What is he doing here?' Takemichi thought as the group came to a halt, noticing them standing in the way.
"What the hell?! Draken-chan's not dead yet?!" One of the boys from the group wondered out loudly.
"Hey what the hell is Trashymichi doing here?"
"And the girl? Wasn't she at the start of the fight in the group too?"
"What do you think you are doing, you piece of shit?" Kiyomasa asked, glaring at the group.
"Hinata."
"Hm?" The girl asked, looking over at (Y/n).
"Take care of yourself and Emma-san. Get away from here as soon as you get the chance."
(Y/n) told the two, adjusting Draken's head in her arms.
"And you?!"
"Takemichi will be busy with Kiyomasa-san, I need to get Draken-san away from here."
She said, not noticing the boy's eyes slowly opening.
"(Y/n)..." Draken muttered, slowly sitting up with the girl's help.
"Draken-san, you shouldn't move..." She said in worry, but the boy only gave her a smile and patted her head.
"I will be alright- where did you get that bruise from?" He asked, noticing the bruise she got from Emma.
"I slipped and fell! Nothing to worry over!" (Y/n) lied,right now she had no willpower to explain.
"Thank you...for helping me out earlier..." The boy nodded at her with a smile and turned to look at the scene in front of him.
"Takemitchy..."
The boy, surprised, turned to look at Draken.
"Draken-kun?"
"Thank you... But now... Take (Y/n), Hina-chan and Emma and get away from here..." He panted while trying to get up.
'Not again...' (Y/n) sighed in annoyance.
"I'll be fine."
"You won't, the injury is too severe. I am staying here whether you like it or not." (Y/n) glared at him.
"You are too stubborn..."
'They act so close...' Emma thought, clutching onto her kimono, anger boiling up again.
'I need to make her stay away from him and fast! Draken is mine!'
"Run?" Takemichi muttered, looking at Kiyomasa and his group again.
'Did I seriously just try to run away?
Did he notice and...'
"Get moving Takemitchy..." Draken repeated, growing annoyed with the boy.
'But you are falling apart!' The faux blonde cried on the inside.
'I... I lost everything because I kept running away... Am I really going to use my only chance to run away again?'
Out of frustration he yelled, scaring Hinata and (Y/n) in the process.
"Takemichi-kun?"
"God,I'm pathetic!" He yelled, wiping the tears away.
"Michi-kun..."
"What the hell did I come here for?!"
He yelled again, standing now in front of the group protectively.
"Hina-chan, step back." Takemichi told her as he walked towards Kiyomasa.
'If I run away now,it will all end here for everyone.'
"What?"
"Hinata, go now. Do as I told you before."
Looking at (Y/n) she sighed and nodded her head.
"Come on Emma." Hinata took the girl's hand and ran away towards a safer spot.
Draken stayed silent as he observed the girl, his heartbeat growing faster and faster.
'She really did all of that to save me... I will... I will protect you (Y/n) no matter what... I won't let someone precious in my life get taken from me!' He made a mental promise as he gripped her hand tighter.
"The hell? You wanna die too?" Kiyomasa asked as he looked at the shorter boy in front of him.
"You sure you don't need to run away, Trashmichi?" The group laughed as Takemichi stared at Kiyomasa coldly.
"I am not running away. Not this time." He clenched his fists, looking from (Y/n) and back at Kiyomasa.
"This time I am getting revenge on my life." Takemichi smirked.
"Michi-kun..." (Y/n) muttered, stunned at the boy's sudden courage.
"Huh? What the hell are you talking about?"
"Kiyomasa-kun... I guess we haven't settled things yet. From our one-on-one in the fight club!"
"Wha?"
"The hell are you talkin' about?" Another guy asked, staring at Takemichi in confusion.
"Everyone there clearly saw you lose."
"But... I didn't lose." Takemichi protested.
"Well in that case, I am bettin' a hundred mil on Takemitchy!" Draken said, smirking at Kiyomasa.
"What?!" Takemichi asked.
"This is stupid as shit. But I will go along with it."
"If so... I am puttin' a hundred mil on Takemichi-kun too!" (Y/n) added, glaring at the group.
"(Y/n)-chan?! You too?!" Her best friend yelled.
"I believe in you Michi-kun! You are the second best fighter in our grade after all!" (Y/n) smiled at him, feeling Draken's grip on her hand tighten.
"Looks like they finally lost their minds!" Kiyomasa mocked, laughing along with his friends.
"Nah. Takemitchy's gonna win." Draken stated.
"Thanks, you two." Takemichi sent them a weak smile and turned to where Kiyomasa was and launched his fist at him, only to get stabbed in it by the older.
"Takemichi?!" (Y/n) yelled as the boy cried in pain.
"This isn't a one-on-one... It's an execution." One of the guys smirked, preparing to fight as well.
"Takemichi!" (Y/n) yelled again, running to run to her friend's rescue, only to get held back by Draken.
"Don't."
"But-"
"It's too dangerous!" He galred at her.
(Y/n) was about to yell back but a sharp pain in her head made her flinch and slowly sit back down.
"This hurts more than I expected." She muttered while Draken patted her back.
"Just stay down for now."
Takemichi looked at the two before pulling the knife out and tossing it away, readying his uninjured hand to punch the older student.
'I can't back down... (Y/n)-chan... She risked so much tonight for me to let her down!'
Flashback...
"We are going to take over Japan!" Takemichi grinned as he and his friends were in his room, playing video games.
"What genius idea did you guys come up with now?" (Y/n) asked while combing Takuya's hair.
"Nothing I know of..." Akkun said, glaring at the smiling Takuya.
'Why can't that be me?! My hair is just as soft!' Shaking his head, he turned to where Takemichi was.
"Say what now?"
"Dude, if we are gonna be delinquents, we gotta see how far up we can go with our fists."
'I thought I could be the most bad ass delinquent in Tokyo.'
"Yeah! Let's do that! First let's take on Shibuya Third MS!"
"Huh? You sure that is a smart idea?"
"Why?" Yamagishi asked (Y/n).
"I heard their 2nd years are very strong and tactical."
"So are we!" Makoto protested, earning a silent reply from the (h/c) girl.
"Hey we are!" Yamagishi said angrily as the girl sighed and shook her head.
"Alright whatever you say... When is the fight even taking place."
"Can't tell you that." Takemichi simply stated as the others nodded.
"What?! Why?!" (Y/n) yelled,getting up from her seat.
"You are not in our gang yet and we know you will try to follow us. Who knows, maybe we won't have a fight at all."
"Alright alright I won't interfere."
She turned to Akkun and swung her arm around his neck, pulling the boy closer to her.
"I trust you to take care of them, Akkun, alright?"
(Y/n) smiled, which caused the boy to blush and stutter more than he already was.
"O-o-of co-course! Don't w-worry about it!"
'Idiot.'
'Why is he getting all the attention?'
'Akkun us annoying at times, I just want to punch him.'
The other three, who sat next to them thought, sending discreet glares to the plum haired boy. Takemichi felt a strange pain in his heart as he watched the two, but decided to ignore it for now.
'Isn't she supposed to be that close just with me?'
The scene changed to when the group was beaten up by the third years of the said middle school.
'But my dreams shattered instantly. I wasn't able to become Mikey-kun.'
Present time...
Takemichi fell on the ground from the force of Kiyomasa's punch.
"You haven't even hit me once yet!"
'My failure of life...is all his fault!' Takemichi thought as he glared up at the older while slowly getting up from the ground.
"Hope you like gettin' socked to death."
"D-death?!" (Y/n) repeated, trying to get out of Draken's grip, but the boy wouldn't let go.
"Just stay down!"
"How could I?!"
"Just do as I tell you."
'I was just unlucky. At least,that's what I thought. But I was wrong.' Takemichi started getting up slowly, ignoring the two from behind him.
'It was all my own fault! Its' s because I was too weak to face anyone again!' Takemichi let out a yell and ran towards Kiyomasa again.
'After getting my ass whooped just that once!'
The older student was about to punch Takemichi as the boy hugged him around the waist and started pushing him away.
"What is he doing?" Draken mumbled.
Kiyomasa started punching him on the back as well as kicking him in the stomach,but the boy wouldn't let go.
"Takemichi!" (Y/n) yelled as she heard her friend cry out in pain.
"Hanagaki! Yer disappointin' the chick over there!"
"Is that cutie his or something?" One of the guys asked, observing the girl more.
"Doesn't matter,might as well take her out after Kiyomasa is done with Trashmichi."
Growing annoyed at the comments, Draken pulled the younger girl behind him and sent a glare to the guys, which seemed to shut them up.
"You are so weak! All you can do is hang on?" The gang members kept on taunting Takemichi.
The boy let out a yellow and bit Kiyomasa's side, causing him to yell out in pain.
"Ow!"
"He just bit him?!"
"Quit bein' so friggin' lame, Trashymichi!"
"Five years old!"
"Let go asshole!" Kiyomasa yelled while punching the faux blonde, but he wouldn't let go.
'Takemichi...' (Y/n) thought as she bit her lip.
'I don't care if I'm being lame! I don't care if I am pathetic!'
Takemichi glared up at the older, having finally enough.
Draken and (Y/n) both watched in awe as the two started to struggle and push each other, only for Takemichi to end up having Kiyomasa in a choke hole and with his legs around the older's waist.
"I don't care if I can't be like Mikey-kun! I am Hanagaki Takemichi!"
"M-Michi..." (Y/n) mumbled as she watched the boy yell those words out, never before seeing him this determined.
Flashback...
"See I told you not to pick fights. Now you are stuck in the hospital!" A 12 years old (Y/n) said as she stuck her tongue out.
"Yeah yeah... It's just a broken leg." Takemichi said while pointing at his injury.
"You really need to be more careful! Why would you pick fights with middle schoolers?"
There was a silence between the two before Takemichi spoke up.
"I want to prove I can be just like Hashimoto-san."
"Huh? The one who graduated last year?" At Takemichi's nod (Y/n) grew even more confused.
"Why though? You two are nothing alike. He is always rough around the edges and too strong for his own good and you are-"
"Weak I know, you don't have to remind me of it." Takemichi groaned and laid down again.
"No, you are not weak. You just fight in a different manner."
"Hm?" Takemichi looked at his friend in confusion as she smiled at him.
"You don't have to fight like him to be strong. Strength isn't just about muscles you know. You are Hanagaki Takemichi, unique in your own way and you should treasure that uniqueness. I like you just the way you are." (Y/n) said, blushing at the last part a little. Takemichi looked at her with wide eyes, but smiled nonetheless, the words really helped him.
"I like you too (Y/n)-chan, after all, we are best friends!" The boy exclaimed happily.
"Right, and as friends we will look out for each other, alright?!" (Y/n) said with a small smile as Takemichi happily nodded his head.
Present time...
"Let go you little shit!" Kiyomasa's voice woke the girl up from her thoughts as she looked at the fighting duo.
"Don't you dare let go, Takemitchy!" Darken yelled at the blonde.
"Takemichi! Give your best!" (Y/n) yelled at him.
The boy continued to tighten his grip around Kiyomasa's neck, which soon caused the boy to pass out and the both fell onto the ground.
Takemichi laid on the floor and smiled at the sky, feeling happy and relieved.
"I got my... Got my revenge..."
"Takemichi! Give me your hand I need to wrap it up-"
"Don't come near for now!" Takemichi said, stopping (Y/n) who was walking towards him. He got up from the ground, panting and smiling.
'I finally did it Naoto... I stood my ground and defeated Kiyomasa... But I am sorry... I failed the mission." The faux blonde thought in disappointment as he looked at Kiyomasa's goons.
"That was lame..."
"Got something to take with you to hell now." One of the boys grinned, taking out a knife.
"Draken-san?" (Y/n) mumbled as the taller started getting up and walking towards Takemichi slowly.
"Ever wondered what heaven was like?" The shorter wondered out loud as Draken laughed a little.
"You're going to hell, dumbass." The boy joked as the trio now stood in front of the group.
"But I ain't done nothing wrong."
"Oh? Looks like they are getting motivated!" One taunted.
"They are full of themselves..." (Y/n) said as her eyebrow twitched.
"They are annoying." Draken added.
'I can barely feel my hand that got stabbed.' Takemichi thought while looking down at it.
'And after what just happened, I can't even lift my right hand anymore.'
Takemichi started stumbling away but caught himself on time.
"Michi... You probably should sit down... Your hand is still bleeding." (Y/n) advised him, holding her own head in pain.
"I could probably knock you over with a funger right now, Takemitchy." Draken added, holding onto his wounded stomach.
"Look who is talking, you two." Takemichi said with a smirk.
"Kill 'em!" The group yelled as they ran at the trio.
'I can barely see properly... Is this how my life is going to end?' (Y/n) thought as she looked over at Draken and Takemichi.
'My only regret is not being honest with you...back in the hospital... Takemichi...' She smiled sadly at the ground.
'In the end I couldn't change the future.'
The trio yelled back, preparing to fight back with the strength they had left.
'I'm not gonna look down till it's over!'
The guy holding the knife was about to strike Takemichi as Akkun appeared and punched him away.
'Akkun! Just in time!' (Y/n) thought as she watched the plum haired boy talk with Takemichi.
"Our Crybaby Hero got in a lot of trouble today." He smiled at the blonde.
"Akkun..."
"Takuya-kun? Yamagishi and Makoto? How did you guys find us?" (Y/n) asked as she noticed the rest of the group approach them.
"Forget that! What about your head?!" Makoto exclaimed, drawing Akkun's attention as well.
"We should get you to the hospital!" Takuya added, wiping the blood away.
"Akkun? Are you alright?" Takemichi asked, noticing the dark expression on the boy's face.
"I am fine." The boy said as he clenched his fists while turning to look at the group in front of them.
'Why is she injured like that?! Is it that Mikey's fault?! Or this Draken's?!'
'Him again? And the other three seem awfully close to her too...' Draken thought as he sent a glare to them.
"Tachibana contacted us. Said you three were in trouble." Akkun said coldly while the other three stood in front of the injured friends.
"Leave this to us Takemichi. Go and get help for (Y/n)-chan and the other guy." Takuya said.
"We can be tough when we need to be! We gonna float like a butterfly!" Makoto said.
"And sting like a bee!" Yamagishi added as (Y/n) laughed at them a little.
"Huh?"
"Nothing, Draken-san!" She told the taller while smiling fondly at the two boys.
'You guys are able to lighten up any situation!'
The four started fighting, but were clearly no match to Kiyomasa's group.
"Draken-san, you can lean on me, here." (Y/n) said as she put the boy's arm around her shoulder so that he can stand better.
"Ah... Thanks." The boy said, blushing a little at rhe closeness.
'She is really warm...'
'Oh no! Please don't tell me he is getting a cold now!' (Y/n) panicked as she noticed the red on his face.
'We need an ambulance now! A cold will make it a lot harder for him!'
"Draken-kun... (Y/n)-chan..." Takemichi said, causing the two to look at him.
"I am sorry I couldn't protect you two... Ever since I came back here, nothing is going right. But..."
Takemichi stopped himself to take a deep breath.
"Came back? Takemichi what are you talking about?" (Y/n) asked, but got no answer in return.
"Quit being so useless!"
"Useless?" Akkun asked, only to get punched by the guy again.
"Yeah I might be useless... But still... There are times where you can't turn back!" Akkun yelled, looking back at Takemichi and (Y/n) with a smile.
"Right?"
(Y/n) was stunned for a moment, before nodding her head.
"That's right Akkun!"
Blushing, the boy nodded and turned to look at the boy in front of him.
"I ain't gonna lose!"
"An ambulance!" (Y/n) yelled, feeling tears in her eyes.
"Draken-san we can get you to the hospital now!" She smiles up at the boy.
"And you? Your head-"
"It can wait... It's not as serious as yours... Besides... You are important to Mikey and a lot of other people,you have priority for now!"
The boy was left stunned to speak.
'Why is she like this?'
'And besides...' (Y/n) thought while looking down at the ground, 'I am just someone who was left by her own mother in the cold... It's not like I am of any importance to someone.'
(Y/n) sighed, trying to hold back her tears as Draken watched her.
'I need to find out what or who is bothering her... And when I do...' He smiled while clenching his hands.
'I will make then suffer till the bitter end!'
