Hinata was dead, again.
This time Takemichi had to witness it, along with the death of one of his closest friends, a friend who had once again betrayed him.
As Takemichi stood holding the now broken necklace Mrs Tachibana had handed to him after his love's funeral, he couldn't help but think where everything went wrong.
***
Naoto had been MIA for days now and finally contact Takemichi. He breathed in relief when he finally met up with the dark haired detective again, however he tensed up when he heard what he had discovered.
"Ryuguji's currently on death row."
The words hit Takemichi like a tonne of bricks and he was almost left speechless. 'Why would Draken be on death row?'
He could never have imagined his friend would be put there, and it hurt realising he had no clue why. He didn't know anything of what had happened in this future, not really.
As they sat behind the glass, his tears began to well as he stared into the dark eyes of his childhood friend who still looked the same despite his now shaved head.
"It's been a while Takemicchi, you're looking well." The tall male wore a small smile as he greeted the man he hadn't seen in years while Takemichi's eyes began to well up.
"Oh man Draken! Are you okay?" The words rushed out of him stupidly. Who would be okay being in jail on death row?
"I guess." He shrugged as if it were just some normal conversation on the outside. "So what do you need?"
"I guess for starters I had no idea you were on death row. What happened? What happened to Toman?" Takemichi had so many questions that they just began to flow out of his mouth.
"I have no regrets about what I did, I deserve this. You know, it's my fault Toman changed. I couldn't stop him."
"Who? What do you mean?" Takemichi asked.
"You know, Toman, it was great as kids, we just picked fights all the time, and it was fun. It was my everything. I would always choose to live it the same way. No regrets." Draken said as he reminisced on their younger days. He missed it more than anything and wished to go back to those times again.
Takemichi smiled gently, realising he really was still the same. He hadn't changed.
"But then again, If I could actually re-live it. I would do something differently. I would kill Kisaki!" He seethed, voice dripping with such hatred that Takemichi just sat there in shock for a moment.
"Wait, so you mean Kisaki is the one-" Takemichi began to accuse, but the buzzer went off startling them all. Their time was up and Draken got up to leave, but Takemichi called after him.
