Stay With Me

29|Fired|

- NO POV -

After Hakkai apologized for the trouble he put Toman in and that Black Dragon members were now under the (Y/n)'s and Takemichi's control. Inui and Koko walked in front of the two and exchanged a few words. "You two will be third division captain and vice-captain." (Y/n) tells the two. The two nodded and stood not too far from the two. Draken then quiets down the chattering the members were having. (Y/n) moved next to Mikey and had a sad look on her face. 

"Lastly, I want to talk about something. . .involving the Christmas conflict," Mikey says. Both siblings look at Kisaki. "Kisaki Tetta!" Mikey calls out. Kisaki stepped out of the crowd. "Yes!" He replies. "You're fired." Both Mikey and (Y/n) said in unison. Chatter started again amongst the crowd. "My sister saw you in a different light and brought you into Toman, yet you spit on her trust and actions for you. You betrayed her trust in the Christmas conflict, now you must suffer the consequences." Mikey said. "What are you saying, Mikey? You're joking right?" Kisaki asks in disbelief. He turns his gaze at (Y/n). "(Y/n), you can't agree with this. You know I shouldn't be fired." He tells her. "You're not under my side of the gang. I can not help you in any sort of way. It is Mikey's actions or words that will be written in stone." (Y/n) responded before looking away. 

"Woah, Woah. Hold the phone, Mikey. If you're firing Kisaki then I'm out, too. Which means. . .of the 450 of Toman, the former 50 members of Moebius, and the 150 members of Valhalla will all leave. And Toman will shrivel to a mere 250. (I'm not sure if that's the right number since Kazutora has half of the original Valhalla members. . .) You sure about this?" Hanma asks. (Y/n) was shocked by Hanma's words. Was he leaving just because of Kisaki? "Hanma!" (Y/n) hissed his name. He set his attention on her. The feeling of guilt rise to his throat. He never hated any situation until now. To choose between his future lover or his 'friend'. Hanma looked away from her, making (Y/n) stomp her foot in frustration. "Fine then! Leave! Take you and your stupid little friends out of Toman! It was getting suffocating anyway!" (Y/n) began to storm out. "(Y/n)! Wait!" Hanma called out to her. "Don't talk or come near me!" She shouts back. Some of the others were shocked by her actions. She didn't seem the type to throw a temper tantrum or get angry so easily. 

Takemichi looked back and went after for (Y/n). Worried about her well-being. "(Y/n)-Chan?!" He called out to her in the small wooded area. As he ran around more, he heard her crying. "(Y/n)-Chan?" He slowly walked over to her. "I don't understand! If he wants me to stay then why is he leaving me!? It doesn't make any sense!" She cried out in frustration. Stay. . .there's that word again. "Did he say that he wanted you to stay?" Takemichi asks. (Y/n) thought for a moment before shaking her head. "Isn't that what everyone who loves me wants me to do? To just stay with them and tell them I'll never leave?" Takemichi saddens by her words and sits next to her. "No, that's not what love is. You have you're own right to leave when you feel like it doesn't feel right. Them forcing you to stay is not what you call love. That's them being possessive. Of course, there will be times when they say they want you to stay, but they should never say it constantly or be forceful with it." Takemichi tells her. "Don't think that everyone is expecting you to always stay with them. They know that it's your choice too. To leave or stay." Takemichi adds as he hugs her. 

He then takes out her handkerchief. (Y/n) smiles a bit as she saw that he still kept it around him. "I don't know how many times I've said this, but Hina is very lucky to have you, Takemichi." (Y/n) hums. Takemichi smiles and felt a bit flustered. "I'm always glad to hear that from you." He chuckles. (Y/n) then hugs him abruptly. "You're such a good friend. Please don't change. Stay who you are. . .for Shinichiro." She whimpers. Takemichi heard from many others in Toman that he reminded them of Shinichiro. He knows that her older brother has a special place in her heart. "I promise," he whispers and hugs her back. 

_To the Future_

- Takemichi POV -

I didn't understand the reason for Mitsuya's death. Why did he die?! I don't understand! I went back to my old crappy apartment. I then looked at the group picture before I left. Naoto then found me and began to tell me that this was the worst future yet. Hina and all of Toman's chief members in the Tokyo Manji Gang were dead. "Chifuyu Matsuno, shot to death. Hakkai Shiba, burned to death. Takashi Mitsuya, strangled. Keisuke Baji and Ken Ryuguji, stabbed. Kazutora Hanemiya and Haruki Hayashida too. Even Kisaki was killed." Naoto told me. "Shocking of all. . .Sano Manjiro was killed as well." He adds. "M-Mikey-Kun?" I said in disbelief. I look at (Y/n)-Chan's smiling face. "What about (Y/n)-Chan?! Was she murdered too?!" I ask. "Brace yourself for what you're about to hear. Takemichi-Kun. The criminal wanted for these serial murders. . .is Sano (Y/n)!" Naoto says. I didn't believe it was true. (Y/n) wouldn't kill anyone. She's too kind and sweet to do such a thing. Though. . .in the last future. . .she was at the top of a whole criminal organization. "You're the only one who can talk to her." Naoto tells me.
