Rise of the Blood Clan

Chapter 13

The days went on as the two gangs were nervously waiting for the final battle, the Blood Clan were confident and well trained with the perfect guidance of their leaders and allies. "So if we review the plan," Hinata said as the Blood Clan members and their allies sat listening, "we are going to pretend that we are losing to them in order to boost their egos, that's when we are going to hit them hard."

The others nodded as they agreed to the plan as Hinata smiled brightly, "I Shade leader of the Cielo Clan will follow and help the Blood Clan until our dying breath." the people cheered as the two clans pledged their allegiance. After a few more debriefing the other members began to leave and only a few important members from the Blood Clan and the Cielo Clan were left.

"Is this really the only way?" Hinata asked as he sat down in his seat, "why does everything have to be about violence." Kenma smiled slightly at Hinata's good heart. The others looked down as if they too wished for peace instead of war.

"Sometimes Sho," Kenma said as Hinata looked towards him, "peace doesn't work on some people, it's why wars and violence have to be used in order to live." Hinata nodded his head before looking at his allied teams, somehow it felt good having trusting and supportive people in his mafia group.

As time passed Hinata found himself in a repetitive cycle, school, volleyball, training. It seems no one was trying to oust the others as if they were preparing for the ultimate battle that would result in one of them losing once and for all. Volleyball practice went on as usual and Hinata found himself too distanced from Kageyama that resulted in some disagreements and fighting.

The rest of the group was desperately trying to ignore the tension between the freak duo, "do you think they're okay?" Noya asked as Tanaka shrugged, "I mean it's nice when they get along. It's when their freak duo gets good." Tanaka agreed as they watched Hinata and Kageyama practice different things separately. Suga on the other hand was unsure of who to go to.

Hinata seemed to be in a high alert mood since yesterday while Kageyama was just his usual cold yet anguished side, "I don't know what's going on," Daichi said as he reached Sugawara, "but I hope they resolve it soon." practice went on as usual and soon it was time to head back home. Hinata and Kageyama went separate ways to their bases. Lev was busy training his men and Hinata did the same.

Somehow as the time for the ultimate battle grew near tension rose between everyone as they tried to work around their weaknesses and disguises, Hinata stood watching his group as they trained on dummies and each other. "What are you thinking about right now leader?" Oikawa said as he stood beside him, "is it about the battle?"

"Yes," Hinata said as he put his hands in his pocket, "I feel like once this is all over we're going to lose too many people."

Oikawa chuckled as he looked towards the men training, "that's just how war and violence go," Oikawa said as Hinata nodded his head. "The more we put into a battle the more we lose, we just have to get over it and win together."

"That's right," Kenma said as he joined Hinata who smiled towards his best friend, "we cannot win a fight alone, but if you have people who care about you by your side we can be and do anything." Hinata smiled as he looked at each of them.

"Yes," Hinata said as he smiled, "together we can win."

Meanwhile, in the Wild Rose Clans base, Lev was looking down at his men as they trained, "are the preparations coming?" Lev asked as Black stood beside him. "I want the best from your Clan."

"Of course," Black said as he bowed before him, "we of the X Clan don't do failures." Lev chuckled as he turned towards him fully.

"I want to ask Black," Lev said as he turned serious, "are you willing to do anything for this group? Even if it costs your life?" Black smiled before getting on one knee.

"I Black leader of the X Clan will do everything we can to help you," Black said as he looked towards Lev who chuckled, "we will never betray the Wild Rose Clan and will support you until our dying breath."

"Good I'm counting on you," Lev said as he placed a hand on his shoulder, "Bokuto Koutarou."
