The three part-timers head down the stairs of the stage to leave. Fujio follows after Murayama with his hands in his pockets, most likely going to ask him for a fight. But he gets stopped by Nakagoshi calling out to him, almost desperately and making sure he is able to get the male's attention.

"Fujio-san!"

"What?"

"It's me!" Nakagoshi introduces himself, covering his headband to show his face. "Nakagoshi from the Five Chus."

"What?" Fujio kind of recognizes him. "You're Goshi?"

"That's right! I lead the first-year and second-year guys now."

"Alright."

"He's the guy I told you about." Nakagoshi looks as his friend, Nakaoka.

"Ehhh? Really? He is?" Nakaoka questions in surprise.

Nakagoshi wraps an arm around Nakaoka's shoulders while making a quick decision. "From now on, we'll follow you, Fujio."

"What? Seriously?"

"You're kidding."

Darling stands amongst the group and watches in amusement, not noticing that Todoroki is watching her as well as Fujio at the same time when he stands next to her. He watches how they interact with the other full-timers and interact with each other. As she playfully punches his arm after he playfully pushes her to the side. Her older brother notices and smirks in amusement, walking back to talk to Todoroki about what he is looking at.

"I guess that's all right. Tsukasa, Darling, it's okay, right?" Fujio asks off in the distance.

Murayama wraps an arm around Todoroki which makes the male jump in surprise. "Todoroki."

"Come one! Greet him properly!"

Murayama and Todoroki look at each other, having a conversation.

"That guy has what you don't have." Murayama points over at Fujio with his thumb.

Todoroki looks over at Fujio who is introducing himself.

"Okay. I'm happy to look after you."

"Thank you, sir!"

Darling throws her head back, laughing as she grins.

"Even if you beat me," Murayama continues quietly, "it's not likely that everyone would follow you. I would rather my sister run the gang with him by her side than you." He narrows his eyes at Todoroki, "I know by the way. Give up, I will never allow her to date anyone. Understood? Later."

The older Murayama starts to leave but gets stopped by Fujio calling out to him.

"Hold on, Muracho." Fujio jogs over with his hands in his pockets.

Seki gets mad at the nickname, "Murachi?!"

"What is it?" Murayama ignores Seki as he questions Fujio.

"Once I'm the leader of the full-timers..." Fujio walks forward a bit. "Can I face off against you?"

"Well, well." Murayama chuckles, leaning forward and uses his finger to pull the skin under his eye down in a mocking way. He then uses the same finger to point at him which gains a small smile from Fujio. The older Murayama looks at his sister before he moves away with a scoff.
