Stay With Me

47|An Impossible Promise|

Takemichi finally found the brakes but found out that Izana's and Kakucho's wounds were deeper than he thought. Takemichi tried his best to stop the train, but the brakes were too strong for him. That's when both Kakucho and Izana pulled Takemichi back and threw him off the train so he can still live. "Together." Izana smiles. Kakucho hums and they managed to stop the train from hitting anyone. Sanzu was in shock to see that they managed to stop the train. Takemichi cried in joy seeing that the two were able to do so. "Kaku-Chan, Izana-Kun!" He called out in joy, however, his smile dropped as he saw the two slumped down with their eyes closed and still holding hands. 

"Sanzu. . ." (Y/n) mumbles. She then yelled at her members to keep fighting and show no mercy. Mitsuya then shouted at Takemichi to look out for Sanzu who was coming up from behind. Takemichi tried to fight, but immediately got kicked down. Before Sanzu could land a fatal hit on Takemichi, Taiju swooped in last second and collided with Sanzu with his bike. Everyone was shocked to see Taiju wear the Toman uniform. "Taiju-Kun?!" Takemichi shouts.

"So it all comes down to this." (Y/n) says as she looks down at Takemichi, Mikey, Baji, and Draken. (Y/n) tilts her head to the side and stares at Takemichi. "Why did you come back?" She asks. "I promised your future self that I will save you. Your future self killed me and tried to end it all by killing yourself. But at the very end, you reached out for my help. That's the first time I heard your true feelings." Takemichi said. "You wanted to start over and be with your daughter. I shook your hand and activated the trigger, to end all this at once." Takemichi said determinedly. Sanzu then attacked Taiju from behind and the three males that tagged along with Takemichi were once again held back. Sanzu then shouted at Takemichi that this was (Y/n)'s destiny. Hanma smiles as he joined the two. Chifuyu also got punched back by Hanma. Though, Chifuyu didn't allow himself to be taken down just yet as he devoted his life to Takemichi and leaned against his back. Draken, Mikey, and Baji got free and the rest of Toman began to stand again as they all felt motivated to not give up. 

However. . ." So noisy." (Y/n) mutters. Takemichi's eyes met with hers and saw those evil eyes. He punched and was sent flying. Chifuyu turned around and saw Takemichi on the ground and tried to help him up, but was kicked away by Mikey. Sanzu smiled seeing (Y/n) like this. Though, she didn't think twice as she kicked him away. Hanma was surprised by this action. "Sugar, what are you doing? He's on our side, y'know." Hanma said. "And?" Hanma grew scared at the sound of her voice. It didn't sound like her at all. He was then kicked aside as he had no time to react. Baji tried to block her kick, but it was too much for him to withstand. Draken also tried to grab her leg before it could reach him, though it did nothing at all. "(Y/n)." Mikey said her name. She looked at him. "I know your head is in a dark place, but please. . .all I want is for you to come back home. I want my twin back." Mikey cried as he held her hands. (Y/n)'s expression didn't change as she kneed Mikey's stomach and threw him off to the side. "You can't save me this time, Mikey." She says before finding her next victims. 

Soon everyone was taken down by (Y/n). Her strength and victory would've been praised for she was given the name 'Athena', but this wasn't Athena at all. Her name was replaced with Enyo; the goddess of war, destruction, conquest, and bloodlust. 

- (Y/n) POV -

I don't remember much of my father since he was a bit closer to Mikey. Though, he showed his love when he was with me. I don't think I cared when he suddenly died. He was nothing more than a mere memory.

At the start, I watched and admired Mikey as he fought all the 'tough' kids around. Oh, how I admired his strength. Like him, I like strong guys and hated weak ones. At that point, I wanted to be like him. Strong, witty, and wasn't afraid to get my hands dirty. "If you two keep matching, it's going to be hard for me to know who's who." Mom giggles. I allowed myself to keep my hair short like Mikey's and often wear the same clothes as him. We are twins, after all, we share a bond like no one else. Mom would always compliment us when we told her our fighting stories. Mikey would also bring our father up when we came to visit her, and it was a bit nice to know more about him. Even more when Mom had that smile on her face when she talked about him. 

Though, no matter how much we talk and visit her, she was getting worse as the days went by. Eventually, she did pass away. I was lost on how to feel. I wanted to be strong like Mikey, who didn't shed a single tear, but in the end, I still cried. I also found out that Mikey was also heartbroken from the loss of our mother. I hugged him tightly and he held onto me tight. "Don't leave." he kept repeating. Mom was already gone. . .she wasn't coming back. I took on the liberty to stay with Mikey. To make an impossible promise. "I won't leave you, Mikey. I'll always stay with you." I promised.
