I'll help ya

Everyone was whispering and muttering non-stop, but one thing stood out for Hanagaki's mind.

Why is he...the only one here?

The room was filled, yes. Yet not with the people he wished to see, Mitsuya, Peh-yan, Draken..Mikey...Hinata was here, sitting in her seat next to him, devastation and sorrow washed all over her face.

It angered him at first, but he can't judge. Maybe they had met the same fate, maybe they didn't have a choice. He was in his little bubble the whole time, until someone burst it.

"That color looks better on ya"

He was tall, with blue eyes like a clear sky, something rare for Japanese people, and Takemichi recognized him, jolting up from his seat "Hayato-kun!!"

Kogen Hayato: former 0 division member

"Hey~! You remember me! That's nice" the latter took his hand for a handshake, his eyes rapidly glancing at Hinata, who yet hasn't stood up to greet him, Takemichi noticed and stood in the way, blocking her view from the man.

"Wanna take it outside? I think I saw Naoto" Hayato suggested, putting his arm over the short boy's shoulder to guide him outside with him. They headed to the garden a few blocks away from where the funeral took place.

"You came back from past, huh?"

That question sensed chills to the two boys bodys, finally earning the detective's attention.

"Uuhh..I-I don't know what you are talking about!" Takemitchi was quick to answer trying to deny it "The last timelines...didn't Draken-kun and Sora die?...didn't Hinata Tachibana die from Toman because of Kisaki..? Weren't you pushed infront of the train?" Questions one after another, making the two boys get scared more and more

"it's stuck in my head I remember those pasts... Hanagaki. It won't stop..."

he informed them, his voice becoming dead than the alive one they heard before.

"So you are a time leaper?" he turned to them making them flinch, gulping the lumb stuck in his throat, the dark blue haired boy nodded confirming it.

"You want to save them too am I right? Just like our Sora wanted" he rested his back on the chair putting his hands in his pockets "welp I guess I'll help ya, meet me after a few minutes in the garden across the street I'll tell ya everything" he finally stood up and walked away not leaving space to any of the boys to talk.

And before he could add another word, it all went red, Hayato's body fell to the ground lifeless, a blood poodle forming beneath his head.

"H..H-Hayato-kun?" Takemechi tried to reach for him, but the view of his blown up head from behind made him run off to throw up.

"he's..dead"
