*Just a reminder that this story does not follow the plot at all, including the Manga or the Anime. This was a plot that I came up with, that included Taiju in Toman. All of the said characters are aged up.*

"Yeah, but I'm not trying to be put in jail! What's fun about sitting in a jail cell 24 hours a day?" My hands anxiously roamed through my hair as I hoped that she wouldn't snitch. "I'm for certain that she's not that obsessed with your dick! I'm pretty sure she values her life more than that, she's going to tell for sure. We're both going to go down for attempted murder!"

"Will you calm down? She won't tell." I looked at him. He was a fucking fool to think that. The only thing that I could do right now, was try to gather all the luck present in my life. "Why don't we move states? You've got the funds, we'll move tonight. No wait..."

She realized her mistake. "A warrant will be out for our arrest! We will never be able to escape unless we move countries!" Her hands dug into the male's shoulders as she began to sweat. She couldn't control her built up emotions, which eventually led to her crying. "Are you fucking serious right now? You're pathetic."

I slapped him. Who was he to think that I was pathetic when he shot her? Am I pathetic for thinking for my freedom? I think not. He was about to raise a fist, but something in his mind stopped him before he could go through with it. "Lay your hands on me again and I swear I'll do it."

His eyes pierced into my soul but I didn't react. I was focused on trying to get on that girl's good side. A plethora of insults came from her mouth directed at me. I should hate her guts, but I'd do anything in these moments.

"You listening to me?" I looked at him slightly. I uttered something under my breath, taking a seat on the bed. Pulling my phone out, I dialed Mikey's number and patiently waited for him to pick up. He finally picked up on the third ring, so I frantically told him the issue.

"Let me speak to Taiju." I passed the phone, but he gave me an eye. "Why did you shoot her?" He instantly looked at me, and I mouthed sorry while fiddling with my fingers. "It was to teach her a lesson. Have you seen on the news about the car crash incident?" Taiju asked Mikey, Mikey wanting to know what this had to do with anything. That was until Taiju explained. "Put me on speaker," Mikey requeseted, and Taiju did as told.

"Do you know how dangerous this is? What has gotten into you, do I need to expel you from Toman?! Is it because of Taiju's influence?!" Mikey was frustrated at the sudden plot twists that had been occurring lately. "Wait a minute, expelled, so I was a member!" She jumped up with joy, the two males audibly groaning.

"That's not the point, the point is you're the cause of a deadly car crash that could have you ended up in prison for a long time. Then there's a woman getting shot, I wonder what's next."

I gulped as I let Mikey's words resonate. And its true, all of this was because of his influence. In my youth, I was wild. But, I wasn't this wild. I would never set up a car crash, never set up a woman to get shot. All of these actions were because of him.

"Yeah, I must admit that Taiju has something to do with my behavior. But Mikey, there's no reason to separate us or expel me. I promise this will never happen again."

He sighed.

"Both of you come to the shrine."

We arrived at the shrine where the others were. As soon as me and him arrived, everyone's attention was on me. I look down at the ground, not feeling comfortable with all of the gazes on me. I instintively scooted closer to Taiju. "Ain't that the crazy chick who got all them people in the hospital?" Smiley asked, pointing at me. I scoffed, looking at Mikey. "She is the crazy chick who did this, and that is why I have called a meeting."

Mikey answered while smiling at everyone. "And also Taiju, who resulted in something dangerous, shooting a woman who is presumably one of his "friends." Mikey did air quotes and I looked at him with a small glare. I didn't like the topic of Taiju and his Ex whores. "They're both fucked up," Mitsuya mumbled, looking toward us. I looked at the lavender-haired male with a look of disinterest.

"Enough talking, let's see how we're going to defuse all of this." Mikey clapped his hands together whilst sitting on the steps. "Any suggestions?" He called, but no one answered.

"Well, if no one has any suggestions, then why don't we turn to the two convicts?" Everyone looked at the two which made
Y/N roll her eyes. "We aren't going to get caught." Was all she said before walking off with Taiju. Mikey shrugged and called off the useless meeting. "So about our phone call earlier..." Y/N couldn't help but smile.

"I'm a member?!"

Taiju scoffed from aside. "Can you drop the topic, you're weak." I didn't know what took over, but it was a mix of emotions. Somewhere in his harsh words, it encouraged me to gain the strength of none other before. I felt dominant, but I was livid. Without thinking, I launched a fist to his face.

Those words, I don't know how they did it, but it gave me enough strength to knock him out. I was sick of getting degraded and abused. I was sick of him treating me like an object. Mikey stood in astonishment,  looking at the male laid coldly on the ground. His eyes were wide with surprise and his mouth was ajar. He knelt to take a look, and indeed Taiju Shiba was out cold.

"Two people," He smiled, placing a hand on my shoulder. "Me and you were the only ones who could take him out, but considering you..." He gave me a warm, genuine smile.

"You are a strong woman to put up with his abuse. You are a strong, determined woman,  to stand up to a man, who you know is powerful. I'm not making you a member just because you did this, I'm making you a member because I admire you greatly, and you've proved to me what it's like to be "strong"."
