ε°з XVI: Solace

Y/n couldn't understand what was happening, one moment Baji was knocking down 50 guys, and then when he got to Kisaki, he was coughing blood and collapsing.

She and Chifuyu screamed his name at the same time in anguish.

"Damn, on which side are you?" Ran asked confused but also with his attention focused on the spectacle.

Kazutora was evidenced that he had succeeded in stabbing Baji, Kisaki made the hypothesis that the real reason to recruit him was caught him out the guard, hearing this, Mikey recovered and stood up with a void face ready to go for his brother's killer.

To end the battle between gangs, he kicked Hanma to the ground scaring the rest of Valhalla's members, this fight was now just between Mikey and Kazutora.

The girl was frozen in her place feeling the time was stuck like her, one of her friends was badly bleeding, the other was punching Kazutora to death, and nobody was trying to stop him. Everything felt like a dream, this couldn't be true.

"MIKEY!!"

Baji's yell woke all from their daze distressing them, he was walking down and thanking the short blonde for worrying for his sake with his wide smile. He had everyone's attention when he told that a little wound wouldn't kill him, but shocked his audience when he brought out a pocket blade before stabbing himself.

"This isn't real..." She watched the blood draining his shirt and her heart finally finished breaking down.

The whispers around the spectators intensified, Toman's members were paralyzed, Chifuyu and Takemichi were kneeling beside Baji and Mikey lost it, going again to place punches at the boy with a tiger tattoo.

"Let me go!" Her outraged voice scared Rindo when he stopped her from standing up. "The fight it's over, let me go!"

"Brother, let her." The older Haitani gave the concession to free her hand. The remorse was taking over him, he knew this was the last chance for her to say goodbye.

"You have a soft spot for her, Ran." His brother stated, trying to tease the sadistic guy who returned a cold gaze when she jumped off the cars swiftly in the direction of her dying friend.

"It was the least I could grant her after all she lived today."

"Being empathic again?" He blurted out with a scoff. "This is not like you, brother."

"Where are you trying to get?" Rising his brow at him with a somber face, he listened attentively.

"Just admit that you have a thing for her."

His brother hummed in thought, turning away his face from him, which didn't change from being neutral for seconds before placing a broken smile when his eyes landed on the girl who was suffering at the distance. "So what? Cut it out."

Getting to the ground, she desperately ran past the standing members of Toman. Y/n couldn't care less about the two fighting boys, the only thing on her mind was getting to Baji.

The tears blurring her sight made her stumble with some of them. The last one grabbed her tightly from going further. "Don't go there."

"Get off, Kenny!" She pushed him hard, the adrenaline was rushing through her blood, making it hard to measure her strength but easy to get rid of him.

The short distance felt like miles for her and when she finally got by Baji's side, Chifuyu was screaming in sorrow his name clutching his limp body.

The knot in her throat intensified, he was so pale by the great amount of blood loss, his hand was cold when her trembling hands reached for it, bringing it to her cheek.
