Author~chan's POV~

October 31st, 2005. Tokyo Manji gang's 150 versus Valhalla's 300, the victor of this unprecedented conflict was the Tokyo Manji gang also there was one death and one arrested, a tragic end to the battle. where everything changed in an instant, broken promises, crying, screaming, shouting. all of that was the last heard after everyone fled and left Kazutora and Baji in that area. with heavy hearts in each of their chests, they didn't look back like Mikey said. if it's all over, each of them needs to continue the journey without looking back so they don't get lost in line. it's hard to accept to each of them that Baji died that way, but what can they do? it all happened in an instant that none of them could have prevented the tragic catastrophe, all they could do was continue their journey without looking back at that tragedy.

two days ago after all that, Baji was buried in the cemetery where Mikey's older brother is also buried, this cemetery is so quiet and beautiful that Chifuyu thinks it's right for Baji's burial, there are cherry blossoms around them with its petals flying and dancing in the air, just like when he first met the older in the past, while there are two flowers in the glass and it is on either side of Baji's grave, also a Yakisoba placed in a Tupperware and chopsticks are sitting on it. remembering that this is his and Baji's favorite thing to eat when they have lunch then or when they come home from school, they always go to a store just to buy Yakisoba, take it home, and cook and share food.

Chifuyu has become accustomed to this since when he first met Baji he knew that he was a mysterious guy dressed only in a weird uniform and glasses. but when little by little he became close to Baji, he also admitted that he was a cheerful and silly person especially when he was with the older and started shouting nonsense about their marriage that there was also a time when he declared in the middle of the city and screamed he owned Takemichi.

thinking each of these memories, it hit directly in Chifuyu's heart, his breath hitch as he had nothing else to say while looking at Baji's grave with a fake smile on his lip. he tried to show Baji that even without him he could show that he was strong and would not cry so easily, he dropped his head down

several days have passed, after they left the body of Baji and Kazutora in that area with an aching heart, at that time Takemichi fainted due to her tireless shouting and crying that refused to leave Kazutora and let him be imprisoned, they instantly took Takemichi to a nearby hospital to be treated for the injury she sustained, it's a good thing it wasn't as bad as when she was first stabbed after she rescued Ken, but all of that has a substitute when Takemichi was in a coma for three days before in this case. she was in a coma for five days in a row, without waking up or even eating, others started to worry for the older, but the doctor said that was okay since Takemichi was too exhausted

the time she woke up after five days in a row, the others decided to visit the hospital to see if the older's condition was okay since she hadn't eaten yet and she might be hungry, they brought food just in case if Takemichi was hungry they don't have to go back to buy food, once they entered Takemichi's room with a smile on their lips as they were ready to see her cheerful expression and voice again. but by the time they entered they would not have thought that such an expression would be seen on the face of the older. her lip was in a thin line, her eyes black as if death were staring out the window, her whole body stiffened in a position that even her head did not snap behind her to see who came, she did not look nor she talk, she ignored every word they said and their movements. seeing the older who did nothing but looked out the window not speaking or moving, each of them felt sadness and heartache

since Takemichi already recalled her memory about Baji and Kazutora but her other memory was still vague so she had more and more questions in her mind, despite Baji had died and no one else could answer her questions, this the reason why she is increasingly depressed with things, it also makes it problematic for others to watch over and take care of her. she stays in that hospital confined with Draken and Mitsuya watching over her because Mikey is so busy that he doesn't have time to visit the older, they also have to keep that Hinata won't know especially if Takemichi is stabbed again, because when once she only found out it there was a possibility that Hinata would take Takemichi away from them all and they don't want that
