chapter fifteen

"Hm? You're not in the car. This sucks." The two adults turned around walking away as Takemichi stared at them with curiosity. 

The taller scratched his head, revealing his tattoo to Takemichi. 'Wait, that's...!'

"I was hoping on taking them both at once..." Takemichi looked at the male in shock. 'No way, that's Moebius captain! Who's the other person with him?!'

"Your fucking fault." "Aww, don't be like that darling. <3" The taller held the other's hand, the shorter pulled away before sipping on their strawberry milk.

'Strawberry milk? Where have I seen that...Wait a second.' Takemichi squinted to see the other's side profile, finally realizing who it was. 

'(Y-Y/n)?! Why the hell is he with Hanma?! Hold on, not in the car...Oh fuck.' Now realizing he was wasting time standing, Takemichi quickly sprinted to where he left Hina, afraid of what would happen.

----------------------------------------------------------

It was around midnight, and Takemichi found himself walking around where Hina's funeral was. The boy was upset with himself. I mean, he did everything required, so why did Hina die? 

He looked around and noticed how the door to the building was open. Huh, he swore that he saw them closed just a moment ago. It was suspicious, and who knows what was going to happen inside.

Curious, he slowly walked in, careful not to make any sounds when he spotted a tall figure in front of Hina's casket. The figure left flowers on the casket and place their hands together. 

Takemichi quickly turned the mysterious person around and interrogated them, "Hey, what do you think you're doing...to the..." He stopped, seeing the person's face.

It was (Y/n). 

"...Michi." The older had changed quite a lot.

He had grown a lot taller, now over six feet as he practically towered over Takemichi. He had a mullet with blue highlights and his facial features were more mature. The older also had tattoos on his neck and arms. His outfit consisted of baggy jeans and a shirt, showing off his other tattoo. Takemichi could see the heavy eye bags under his eyes, and (Y/n) gave him a small smile.

Takemichi felt some happiness in him, glad that (Y/n) was alive, but that happiness turned to anger when he remembered what he had heard and seen before Hina's death.

He tried to punch (Y/n) in the stomach, which the taller blocked easily. "Why?! Why did you kill Hina?! Why are you on Hanma's side?! I-I don't understand, no matter what I do, Hina just dies, and this time, it's your fault! You're a nice person, so why did you do it-" "Did you think I wanted to do this?"

(Y/n) slowly let go of Takemichi's hand, looking at Hina's casket. "Do you think...I wanted to kill Hina? I viewed her as a younger sister." "S-So why did you-"

"Kisaki threatened to kill Akane and Akira." The shorter looked at (Y/n) in fear. "W-What?!" The older stared back at Takemichi, beginning to explain.

"He threatened to kill Akane and Akira if I didn't help him out, so what else was I meant to do? But..." He looked down, and tears dripped down his face. "Even after I agreed to join, he...he killed them. He fucking killed them." 

He looked Takemichi in the eyes, laughing as more tears fell down his face. He was losing it. 

"I've lost everything, Michi. EVERYTHING. My only family, my friends, my significant other. Hell, I don't even know why I'm still letting myself live. I was forced to do so much shit before I even turned 10. Since the day I was born, my life has been nothing but hell. I only lived for the sake of the kids , but now that they're gone, I have no reason to live."

Takemichi stood silently, taking in all that (Y/n) had said. The older sighed, realizing Takemichi was going to stay quiet. He began walking away, patting Takemichi on the way out. "You're going to the past again since Hina's dead, right? Can you do me a small favour?" 

"Please, make sure Akira and Akane can live on without any suffering. I don't want them to go through what I had to go through. I'm sorry about what happened to Hina, I really am."

(Y/n) finally walked away, leaving a teary Takemichi alone.

What Takemichi didn't realize was he was meant to die that day, as (Y/n) threw away his knife at a nearby bush, driving to the nearest bridge to do what he'd been planning.

---------------------------------------

Takemichi found himself in a hot spring, along with Mikey, Draken and (Y/n). 'I'm in a public bath?' He hadn't realized Mikey was below, waiting to scare him as he jumped out.

"Boo!!" "M-Mikey?!" Mikey cheered, happy he succeeded at scaring Takemichi. "Was I that scary?" "I thought that Michi would piss himself." The blonde turned to his side, finally seeing (Y/n) with his wet hair.

Wow, the boy really did look pretty all the time.

"(Y/n)?!" "Yo." Draken, from across the room, proceeded to scold their behaviour, and of course, Mikey made fun of him for using a shampoo hat. Takemichi was still trying to process the situation, still confused about everything.

'I'm in a public bath with Mikey, Draken and (Y/n)! What the hell is going on?!'

Everyone in the bath had now left, except for the four, who continued to stay in the water as they conversed. "Man, I feel alive again." "It's the first time I've been to a public bath." (Y/n) sunk part of his head in the water, happy of relaxing after the eventful week, while Draken looked at him with disbelief.

"No way in hell you haven't been to a public bath before." "I'm telling the truth. I never had the time or interest to go to one." The boy played around with the water and rubber ducky with Mikey as the other two continued speaking.

"Have your injuries healed yet, Draken?" "You kidding? This ain't shit. Behold!" Draken suddenly stood up, revealing his body to the three as (Y/n) stared at his chest with no shame. "Check out my abs and my sick ass scar." "W-Well, you're definitely bigger than the average middle schooler." 

"Ten out of ten body, would stare for hours." (Y/n) immediately commented, giving Draken a thumbs up. "(Y-Y/n)?!" Hearing this, Mikey slowly swam over to Draken before punching his injury and running away.

"Looks like you aren't fully healed yet. Better be careful, Ken chin!" "You little shit...Come here!" The two squabbled, splashing water all over as the other two simply watched them, letting out small chuckles. The black haired boy turned to Takemichi with a stern look, slightly frightening the blonde.

"Michi?" "Y-Yes, (Y/n)?" 

"You...You just came back from the future, didn't you?"
