Ch. 7 - Rebellious Disciples

About two days passed since the last incidents, with it now being the middle of the day. Hiro's standard patrols continued however- an incident was brought to his attention. Tatsuya Shiba, one of his colleagues within the Disciplinary Committee, has been recently attacked by an unknown assailant. Considering what had happened- he had dug more into the situation himself to find out what exactly had been happening, and eventually went directly to Tatsuya about it. 

The concerns about Hiro that Tatsuya had were justified through this first exchange; with him being told directly, "The possibility ranges into domestic terrorism.. with Blanche," as to which this statement made his hand slightly clench. They had been an issue within East Germany while he was there and he really didn't think that they'd get a hold of the Japanese islands. "It would seem he's more involved with us all than we think..." the tall individual thought to himself as they walked and eventually met up with Miyuki.

His phone blinked as he looked down at it, "I nearly forgot about that.." he said lightly as he looked to Miyuki. "Is it your meeting with Ms. Mibu, Brother?" the light voiced girl asked as she looked up at him "Yes but, I'll be back soon." The man stated as he looked to Hiro and nodded, leaving the two together. Her hands clasped together as she looked down at them- a hand being placed on her shoulder; "I'm sure he'll be fine.. he's a strong man." in a reassuring tone he stated. She looked up to him and smiled lightly, "Yeah.. thank you." as to which the smile did get to Hiro and let a small blush appear over his cheeks as his the intercom sparked to life, with Tatsuya walking over.

The intercom sparked up with the statement of some students at the school, which stated loudly that they demand more rights for course 2 students. Of course- Hiro didn't mind having more rights but, he rarely even used them, however they were now crossing the line with taking over the intercom room. Tatsuya began to walk in the direction as his armband showed in the light, reminding Hiro to put on his own as to which of course, he did. Upon approaching the intercom room, he saw: Mayumi, Mari, Juumonji, and a few of the disciplinary committee members.

Informing him of the situation, Mayumi looked to her younger "brother" and smiled as he looked directly at the door. Mari began to speak: "We need to resolve this situation as soon as possible.." but was quickly cut off by Tatsuya as he asked, "Chairman Juumonji.. what are your current thoughts on this?" as he then replied stoically with a slight pause, "I.. I don't see a problem with negotiating with them." before continuing with a brief breath in the middle "If we refute that strongly enough, that should assuage their anxieties." their conversation continued as Hiro tuned out before hearing Tatsuya take out his phone.

A number was dialed as he spoke, saying: "Chairman Juumonji has agreed to negotiate, I have yet to confirm the student council's position... No, wait, the student council will also negotiate. I'd like to discuss a date and time for these negotiations.." before continuing to listen he heard more. "No.. your freedom is guaranteed.. yes.. All right, then." he said as he closed the call, pocketing the phone. "She said they'll be coming out momentarily.." as another voice cut through, "Was that Sayaka Mibu..?" which was given a quick reply- "Yes, I had gained her personal number to speak with her."

Nonetheless, comments were made such as, "You sure don't waste time, do you?" the joke cut through as he said- "It's not like that." with further explanation being given. Hiro looked to his left where Miyuki was and needless to say, he saw her eyebrow twitching lightly as he set a hand on hers while she began to reach up. "Brother, you sure are evil," as to which he was given a pained look; of course she was in pain due to this, which made him look down lightly and take his hand off of hers. "You realize that now, Miyuki?" she said as she grasped the back of his coat gently, gaining his attention as she looked back to Hiro, which calmed her down oddly enough as she then looked to Tatsuya. "I'll want to hear every detail of it later.." she smiled as she spoke.

The tall man looked at Hiro and said, "I'll want you leading the charge.." as he broke a slight smile and patted his head, gaining a nod from himself. "Uh- okay." as he walked in front of the door, he placed his hand on the handle as it very obviously crystallized. The young man closed his eyes as the crystal began to spread onto the handle and inside of the mechanisms- forcing it to unlock as he crystallized his other hand and opened it. With that being said, members of the disciplinary committee rushed in and detained most members of their rebellion. Time wasn't given as Hiro himself began to get rushed at, with the students being quickly outmatched by himself. The crystal was hard enough to cause nose bleeds, so blood of course splashed lightly onto his crystallized hands as he defended himself.

Mari put a hand over her mouth as she observed them, and kept a close eye on Hiro to ensure he didn't go too far. Mibu ran up to Tatsuya and shouted, "You double-crossed us, didn't you?!" as to which she reached up to slap him but the hand was caught by Tatsuya. Miyuki had watched Hiro as well- feeling his mixed emotions just through how he moved, it was obvious that he didn't take pleasure in hurting those he was in good relation with. Mayumi walked in and looked at her little brother as the crystal on his hands began cracking and falling off, she walked over to him and placed a calming hand on his shoulder as he sighed.

"Release them, I can't have a negotiation with just Mibu. Ms. Mibu, I would like to discuss our pending negotiations with your coalition.. would you please come with me?" the matured girl asked as Mibu began to follow, "Yeah- that's fine." she said rashly while following. Hiro looked back to Miyuki, who had been looking at him and continued to look at him as his arms emitted a small amount of steam before stopping. She quickly looked to Mibu as she began to walk but, the look in the younger Shiba's eyes took him by surprise. It was like a look of understanding.. maybe they were closer than he thought, she looked like someone who began to understood Hiro's existence and concern, as well as his emotion. That being said; he stood up from his kneeling position and began to walk away as everyone else continued to do so as well, with Mayumi asking him to go home alone, which he followed.
