15) Meeting Baji

A/n: I got the timing messed up, so let's say that there was another different attack on Draken before August 3rd. Also, this all takes place 2 years before Bloody Halloween, and we'll say that Michi here met Toman earlier.

(Damn Takemichi travels around too much and I'm getting confused TvT)

"This should be good enough."

After paying, you stepped out, a pocky in your mouth. Now, where was the car parked again? "Oh, it's you." Y/n turned around, pocky still in her mouth.

You hummed, recognizing Mikey as you finished the snack. "It's been a while, Mikey," you said, giving him a small wave.

"It has. When are you coming back?" You shrugged, "I might actually stop by later today."

"No way, you're Y-Y/n L/n!?" Your eyes narrowed as you looked past him to a blonde with blue eyes. Something about him seemed familiar. He flinched under your gaze, scooting behind the other one. I think he's taller than Ran, Y/n thought, looking up.

Your eyes wandered to the tattoo on the side of his head. Whoa, that's a cool tattoo, you thought, stars in your eyes.

He looked down at you, smirking. "It is pretty sick, right?" You blinked, a blush on your cheeks from embarrassment as you looked away. I said that out loud, you internally scolded yourself as you nodded.

"So, who is she anyway, Mikey?" he asked, turning to him.

"A good fighter."

"Her name, Mikey," he clarified. He blinked in realization. "Oh, [miss-pronounced Y/n]..." he trailed off as he blankly stared. "What was your last name again?" You dead-panned, that's not even how━that's not even my name! You stared at his uninterested expression, sighing. I think he's just bad with names.

You smiled, "I never told you." "Oh." You chuckled as you bowed slightly. "My name is Y/n L/n, but." You glanced at the blue-eyed one. "It seems one of you already knows that." He jumped as he smiled awkwardly.

"My name is H-Hanagaki Takemichi," he stuttered as he extended a hand. "Nice to meet you." You hummed as you took his hand. "Have we met before?" you asked as a memory tickled your consciousness.

"Ah! N-no, we haven't. Yup n-never! Haha," he stammered, scratching the back of his head.

"So, what's your name?" you said, changing the topic, letting his hand go. You turned to the tallest of the three. "It's Ken Ryuguji, but everyone calls me Draken," he replied, extending a hand.

"It's nice to meet you, Draken," you smiled, shaking his hand. "So, what brings you guys here?"

"The two of us went out to eat, and this one." Draken pointed to Takemichi. "Was stalking us."

"HEY! I was acting as your bodyguard!"

"I don't need one." You tilted your head, "No offense, but I agree. What are you protecting him from anyway?"

"I don't want Draken to get killed, and I'll protect him until August 3rd," Takemichi replied. His entire demeanor changed as his face hardened. A gleam of determination sparked in those blue hues.

The box of pockies slipped from your hand as a sudden spiking pain stabbed through your head. Y/n pinched the bridge of her nose. You grunted as another pain shot through your head.

"Hey, you alright?" You pushed Draken's hand away, mumbling what you hoped was a good excuse. What is this sudden pain? Y/n thought, squeezing her eyes shut and massaging her temples.
