After Haru visited Takemichi he went to Shinchiro's grave

Haru sighed "Shinchiro please guide me....I don't know what to do anymore" tears slowly coming out of his eyes he wipes it of using his sleeves "my brothers are so lost...they're slowly losing themselves Shin please help me...." 

"Satō?" 

Haru flinched wiped his tears away before looking up at the person who called him 

"You are?" 

"It's me Wakasa Imaushi and this here is Senju Kawaragi" Wakasa said 

Haru looks at the girl? boy? Besides Wakasa 

"I'm a girl if that's what your wandering" she spoke

"...." Haru stands up to look at both of them properly Haru immediately bows down to Senju "Thank you for saving my brother! I owe you one.." 

"Satō-san right? It's ok no need to bow...please stand up straight now this is kinda embarrassing" Senju said rubbing the back of her neck, Haru stood up 

"Now then could you please tell me who your brother is?" Senju asked 

'Oh I completely forgotten we have different last names...' 

"Hanagaki Takemichi....that's his name" 

"YOU'RE HANAGAKI'S OLDER BROTHER!?" Senju was shocked she didn't think Takemichi have a brother 

"Yes I am. You guys haven't have lunch we could go at a restaurant, then I can explain is that alright?" 

"Yep sure let's go to a ramen shop! Follow me!" Senju started walk away the both of them sighed and followed Senju 

————————

Haru broke the silence between the three of them "Hanagaki Takemichi, Hanemiya Kazutora, and Hanma Shuji are my brothers....we were separated when we were kids...." 

"Takemichi lived with me for a little while, Takemichi met Shinchiro Sano once...he doesn't remember it right now but he did meet him"  

"Why did you leave Hanagaki then? If he was with you" Senju asked 

"I got in trouble with large gangs if they find out I have a little brother they would target him so I left Takemichi with our Grandmother" 

"I see...all of you had a rough childhood huh?" 

'You don't even know the half of it..' 

"Yeah..." 

"You know Michi made a promise to Shinchiro...." Haru softly smiled at the memory 

"What kind of promise?" Senju asked about to eat her ramen 

"Shinchiro asked Michi if he could lead the black dragons one day if it gets corrupted and of course Michi sealed that promise, Michi had his doubts but still promised it either way" 

"He completed the promise then" Wakasa added 

"Yea he did, but I don't think he remembers that promise....fate brought him to meet the black dragons and destiny made him the 11th captain/ last captain of the black dragons"

"Wakasa here's my number call me if you wanna hangout sometime" Haru slides a paper to Wakasa

"And where will you go now?" 

"Gonna visit Kazutora" 

————————

At the Juvie 

"Hey" 

Kazutora looks down in shame 

"I'm not mad nor disappointed" 

Kazutora slowly looks up

"There we go...I know it's been hard for you....I'm sorry I haven't been there for you when you need me" 

"I'm ready to fix family just the four of us" 

"....I'll think about...." 

"Alright Times Up!" 

"Ok I'll see you again Brother"

Back to Takemichi 

Takemichi is now asleep in his dreams or a flashback of a forgotten memory 

"Takemichi?" 

"Yes Shin-san?" Past Takemichi 

"If the black dragons fall one day lost it's pride I want you to step up and give them hope..." Shinchiro softly said

Takemichi yawn not totally getting the part 'the black dragons losing its pride' "I'm so sleepy" 

Shinchiro chuckled "Come here" Takemichi leans onto Shinchiro "I want my brother..." takemichi mubbles something he didn't quite here but he did hear "I promise" 

"Don't worry Michi I'll take you to Haru go to sleep until then" Shinchiro carried takemichi
