I assumed Mikey ended the meeting because everyone was walking away from the shrine. Mikey and Draken stayed, so I walked up to them for more information.
"What's going on with Tenjiku and Rokuhara Tandai?"

"You here the whole time?" Draken asked but I shook my head and pointed to Senju, gathering her things. "She told me part of it, now tell me what's really going on."

"Tenjiku declared a fight against us and it didn't end there, because South decided he wanted in too." Mikey explained briefly. I couldn't let there be yet another war, so I waved Mikey, Senju, and Draken off as I quickened my pace toward the school. I needed to find out what really started this newly ledged conflict.

And for answers, I had to talk to Izana Kurokawa.

I walked around the entire school to an excluded area, where his gang resided. Since I was considered to be with Toman, they treated me like any other rival. I peeked around the corner of the bricked dingy wall, to spot them scattered around. Izana was sitting on a large rock, head tilted up at the sky. I grew nervous, but I had to solve the enigmatic conflict to avoid any mote casualties. Shinichiro would be disappointed to witness another war.

I rounded the corner causally, but obviously they had spotted me not even a step in. Then, they crowded around me, except for Izana, who glanced at me blankly. "What're you doing on our territory?" Mochizuki asked, waiting for a response. Words were stuck in my throat.
My mouth was dry by, so I looked toward Izana for any relief.

"I need to talk to... Izana." I mumbled incoherently, Shion moving all in my personal space. "Whatcha' say little girl?" He asked, and my lips pressed into a thin line. "I said I need to talk to Izana." I swallowed a breath when he gave me a menacing look. He raised a hand, to which I thought he was about to strike me with. My reaction was quick, so I slapped him hard,  running towards the Ivory-haired male.

Thry ran after me, and I barely approached Izana, but he reached his hand out and held my shirt tightly, bringing me forward.

"What do you want?"

He asked. Then he looked at me, and I heaved a sigh. "Why is there a fight approaching, what happened?"

"You should ask Toman that." I looked at him confused. "What do they have to do with anything?"

"Get out of my face." He dodged the question and walked away, and without noitce, I was lifted off of the stained ground. Kakucho had held me up. "What the hell? Put me down!"

"He said to get out of his face." Pissed, I bit his hand in the heat of the moment, glad that the bite was just enough for him to drop me. When he was distracted I grabbed my phone and unlocked it. "Don't make me call Shinichiro!" I yelled at Izana who turned around, ceasing in an instant. He wasn't calm, nor mediocre, rather pissed.

He walked my direction whilst raising his hand, shooing everyone in the vicinity away. They followed his orders promptly, and we were left alone. His smiled widened, a finger pointing at me.
"Call Shinichiro?" He laughed. I was pushed into the brick wall harshly, and afterward, he snatched my phone and examined the lit screen. I tried to get it back with any means, but he bound my two hands with his free one.

He pressed the call button and Shinichiro immediately answered. "Hey Y/N, what's up?"

"Shinichiro." The older one paused. "Izana? Why do you have Y/Ns phone?"

"Shinichiro help, he needs his meds!"
I yelled out, which Izana slapped his hand over my mouth. "Shh," He whispered, pressing the phone to his ear, glaring at me incase I attempted something. "Izana what's going on?"
