A Future Without You is Soon |Mikey x OC|

Chapter Forty-Eight

Takemichi holds Senju a little tighter as the man charges for them. What does he want?

"Hanagaki? Let me go!" Senju snaps.

"That guy has a gun! We gotta get out of here!" Takemichi says.

"No, I can handle it!" Senju says. She pushes herself off of Takemichi.

Draken swings his fist at the man, but he grabs Draken's arm and pulls him through. He raises his knee and plants it into Draken's stomach. He flies backwards. When he sees Senju charging for him, he readies his gun.

Senju's eyes widen. She drops lower than she already was and pick up a rock. She throws it as hard as she can toward the man. It hits his hands. The gun clatters to the ground a little away from them.

Takemichi can hear him click his tongue.

Senju jumps, spins, and extends her leg, but the man blocks it and counters with his own kick. It's just high enough to hit Senju's shoulder. He hooks his foot around it. He pulls Senju to the ground and pins her with his leg. He grabs his hood and pulls it farther down his face.

Who was this guy? Why was his fighting style so familiar?

He feels around for a gun, then frowns when he realises he doesn't have one. Takemichi thought that would stop him, but he was wrong. The man raises his foot and slams it into Senju's stomach. She coughs and lays against the ground.

Takemichi's eyes widen. "No! Senju!"

He raise his leg again and holds it over Senju's neck. Takemichi sprints forward, but Draken gets there first.

It looks like he attempts to clothesline the man, but it doesn't work out like he expected. He drops his leg about shoulder width from the other one and leans back. He reaches up and grabs the hood of his jacket. Draken's eyes widen.

Takemichi can guess what he's thinking. What kind of fighter is this guy in he can do something like that so smoothly?

The guy plants his hands on the ground and picks his legs up. He attempt to hook Draken's arm between them, but Draken pulls his arm back fast enough.

The large jacket fold downward. Takemichi can see defined muscle through semi loose clothing. On his back, there's a large tattoo of what seems to be Anubis, but the top half is still covered by his clothes. It's a very realistic looking tattoo, and Takemichi can only imagine how long it took and how much it hurt while it healed.

   The man pushes off the ground, his hand immediately reaching for his hood. He lands safely, until Senju manages to stand and hit him full force in the right shoulder. Takemichi can see the man's mouth contort in pain. He skids backwards and grips his shoulder.

His head turns for a moment. Takemichi follows it.

The gun...!

"Draken~kun!" Takemichi shouts. He runs up and swings his fist wildly at the man, who seems mildly surprised as his intervention. The man moves Takemichi's hands smoothly to either side of him. He reels his fist back and swings it. It connects to Takemichi's jaw. Takemichi staggers backward, Draken taking his place.

Draken swings at him, but he already has his hands in a guard. The man spins around, one foot planted at the floor, one up in the air. The one in the air connects to Draken's temple. As he collaspses, the man plants a hand on Draken's back and springs over him.

Senju takes her chance and kicks his stomach. The man grabs his hood, grunts as he takes the full force of Senju's kick, and hooks his free arm around Senju's leg. He kicks Senju's leg out from underneath her. Senju falls to the ground heavily.
