One month later, Takemichi is the only one who arrives at the Brahman base.
Takemichi: "Punk... always trying to get on my nerves." (murmured) "Hmm?" Takemichi is surprised to see the base empty except for Senju.
Takemichi: "Hmm... why are you here? I thought Takeomi would be here, but instead, it's just you." (said with disappointment)
Takemichi: "Get the hell out. I have no interest in you."
Senju: "Takemichi... I don't know why you're doing this, but you have to stop it. I don't want your family to participate in this mess."
Takemichi quickly shoves Senju by grabbing her throat.
Takemichi: "The fuck are you saying, huh?" (said with irritation) "Guess Haru was right, you really have no idea how to talk to your elders."
Senju: *Khuaak!* "I-I have an offer."
Takemichi tilts his head in bemusement, loosening his grip on her throat to encourage her to speak.
Senju: "Instead of Takeomi, I will go with you."
Takemichi: "And why should I take you?"
Senju: "Takeomi is too old to be of use. I... will be more helpful than him."
Takemichi punches Senju's gut, making her fall and groan in pain.
Senju: "Agh! Saliva came out of her mouth."
Takemichi: "When will you understand? You can't change the fact that you are a lackey girl." (said with disgust in his eyes)
Senju: *What strength is this? I don't take hits like that!* (thought)
Takemichi grabs Senju's hand, still on her knees, and swings her body in the air, causing her more pain.
Takemichi: "Ha... you gotta be kidding me. Take you? Listen up, bug. If you want to join me, you need ambition, talent, speed like your brother. But I see neither in you, or perhaps if you were like Haru... no... you can't be like him."
Takemichi: "Senju... if you don't run away, you will die here." (said with a wide smirk)
Senju gains her strength to spin in the air and throw a kick, but to her surprise, Takemichi intercepts it.
Takemichi: "How strange. Your brothers always amaze me with their fighting style. So how are you shit? You sure you're not adopted?"
Takemichi slams her on the ground.
Senju: *Gah!*
Senju throws her punches at Takemichi, who dodges effortlessly.
Senju: "Raaah! Why you!" (said with anger)
Takemichi: "Are you feeling inferior?" Takemichi hits her face with a straight punch, rendering her motionless for seconds.
Senju: "Ack! Blood comes out of her nose and mouth."
Senju barely throws punches at Takemichi, who blocks them easily.
Takemichi: "I know you're pissed, but I can't count emotion as an ability." He grabs her throat and slams her body on the ground hard.
Takemichi: "Even children have better emotion and determination than you."
Takemichi is about to hit her but stops upon hearing a door opening sound.
Takemichi turns his head to see Wakasa and Benkai standing along with a bunch of yakuza members. Wakasa's and Benkai's rage grows upon seeing Senju's condition.
Wakasa: "Bastard... you don't even hesitate!"
Benkai: "Senju! I will kill you, bastard!" (said with rage)
Wakasa: "Never thought I'd have to kill one of my friend's brothers, but you gave me no choice." (said with a death glare)
Benkai: "You are a shame to your family." (said with anger)
Takemichi: "Hey... Why do you two talk like you're stronger than me?" (said with deadly eyes)
They all rush toward Takemichi, but something feels off; they can sense the craziness in his eyes for the fight.
Time skip.
A few minutes later, the only one standing among the members is Takemichi, whose shirt is totally torn with a few bruises on his body.
Takemichi: "Haah... that was a nice fight, I'll give you that." (smirk) "But you messed up my shirt."
Takemichi glances at Senju, who still sees him while trembling in shock.
Takemichi lowers his eyes to see the knocked-out bodies of Benkai and Wakasa. Benkai's face is totally dislocated, and Wakasa's left leg is now broken.
Takemichi slowly kneels down to Senju.
Takemichi: "Hey... You know what to say, right?" (smirk)
Senju: "Dragon... the Dragon House." (said while trembling)
Takemichi: "Heh... this shit is really crazy." (smirk) "Looks like I have to pay a little visit to my ex-member."
