Who says you can't change everything with your dreams?

-July 4, 2005-

"Shit, it's boring... Mikey, the jerk, sent me out for dorayaki, while he's out somewhere with Kenchik, for fuck's sake..." - thought Dima as he strolled toward Sano's house, which had become his second home.

After saving Shinichiro, Dima introduced him to Mikey and Emma. They became good friends. Mikey himself introduced him to his founding friends of the Swastons. Manjiro offered to join their ranks, but Dima said he would only help and not join for now. Kazutora, on the other hand, was jailed, except for a year for attempted murder.

Soon after they met, Mikey and Dima sparred. Dima won, and it was worth it to see those funny elongated faces.

Later, Dima learned the rumors of the underworld. They called him either Red or Red Eye, who would be on par or even stronger than "Invincible Mikey.

But everyone knew that Red was several times stronger than Invincible Mikey.

Walking down the next street, Dima heard shouting and sounds of fighting.

"Oops, a fight! I wonder what's out there? Ha, even though it's none of my business, it's still interesting!"

Coming out from behind one building, Dima saw ninth graders beating up some middle school students. And there he saw Hanagaki.

"At last we meet, Hanagaki. I hope you save everyone. And now I'll save you."

- Hey, what are you guys doing here? Hmm, seniors, but beating up middle schoolers. You can't tell anyone, they just laugh!

"Masataka Kiyomizu, the head of this gang, I think. I don't know that shit. "Fuck it, knocking them out won't be a problem anyway."

- Who the...

They must have seen Dima's red eyes. Dima himself was dressed in all black: shorts, T-shirt, sneakers, cap, and the usual mask. He often dressed like this on the street, it was easier not to attract attention. The elders shuddered at the sight of his eyes and clothes; they had heard about the power of the red eye.

- I won't say it again, so let's get out of here.

- All right, all right, don't push it, we're leaving now, okay?

"What was that? Why did they leave?" - Takemichi thought. He and his friends kept sitting there, not looking up, because it was scary.

- You can relax, it's okay now.

When he looked up, Takemichi met empty red eyes that were staring straight into his soul.

Takemichi was frightened and bounced back with a squeal.

- Am I that scary?

"Oh, my God, my God, my God! I-I met a red-eye! I-I met the killer!" - Hanagaki thought frantically, turning pale.

"Why is he so pale? Does he think I'm going to kill him?"

- Well, all right, I'll go. Oh, and you don't stay long and go home. Okay? And don't get into fights where it ain't even. That kind of thing ends sadly," Red said, and went home completely in his own mind.

"I didn't think I was about to meet Red's biggest young maniac! That was dangerous! I wonder why he became a murderer and lurks in the shadow of the Tokyo Swastika?"
