*RING! *RING!

"Baji-san! Hello!" a cheerful voice was heard on the other line.

"Chifuyu-" Keisuke took a deep breath, "-Let's talk. I'll meet you at our spot."

"Hmm? Baji-san, What's wro-"

*BEEP! *BEEP!

Before Chifuyu could ask questions, Keisuke drops the phone. He knows Chifuyu is smart enough to know there's something wrong. Oh! how he feels bad for Chifuyu. Knowing how loyal Chifuyu is to him, he doesn't want to harm him because of his reckless plan. He wants him to be safe. He wants Chifuyu to remain like how he is now, innocent, happy, and free. "I'm sorry Chifuyu."

Right now, Keisuke has two priorities. One, the safety of his friends. And two, saving Manjiro and Kazutora from their selves.

Keisuke's guts turn in nervousness as he walks where Chifuyu and him will be meeting. Where they always talk from sunset to sunrise.

"I have to do this...." Keisuke talks to himself. That way, 'They' will come back to them. This is the only way to keep his promise to 'him', "Shinichiro...". This is the only way to save both of 'them', "Kazutora and Manjiro...". If it means to sacrifice himself to save them, he will. He clenches his fists, "I promise, I'm with you."

Keisuke finally got to the landing of the stairs on their apartment complex where Chifuyu is waiting for him.

Chifuyu was leaning on the wall. His hands on the pockets of his pants. He has a worried expression on his face. When he was coming down the stairs earlier, he felt a bad feeling. He still feels it. Instead of wearing off, it gets stronger. Whenever Keisuke wants to meet Chifuyu, he would've just called outside their window where he waits down the street with his motorcycle. 'Why did he call me through the phone?' he thought, not liking this situation one bit.

*STEP! *STEP! *STEP!

Chifuyu hears footsteps, he recognized them and lifted his head. "Baji-san." he calls out, the bad feeling gets stronger as Keisuke approaches him. He gulps in worry when he saw how serious his Captain is. "W-why did you call me?"

Keisuke stops, a close yet far distance from his blonde Vice-Captain. He keeps his serious face to act. His heart breaks at his Vice-Captain worried state, 'Im really sorry Chifuyu-' "Chifuyu." he calls out.

"Yes, Baji-san?"

"I'm leaving Toman." Keisuke said straightforwardly.

Chifuyu's eyes widen, his brows furrowed. "Wh-what?" he mumbles in confusion.

"You heard me, I'm leaving Toman." Keisuke said, his face shows annoyance but he feels bad.

"Baji-san, please. Tell me your joking." Chifuyu said in disbelief, voice starts to tremble.

"Joking? You think I'm joking?" Keisuke said with a deep voice, making sure to show annoyance and seriousness.

Chifuyu's mouth gape, "Baji-san...." he steps forward. His throat starts to hurt, so does his chest. "WHY?!" he asked, pleading for Keisuke to answer. His green eyes shows tears.
