  The sky was gradually darkening, the lights of car headlights intensifying, and the people walking sideways. On a small sidewalk in the center of Shibuya, a teenager with faded yellow hair was walking with his head down, trying to not get attention.

  Takemichi he had a rough day, from the talk with Naoto, going back in time, and the plan to save Draken, he really didn't know how to save him, he wasn't a hero, he didn't know how to fight, he wasn't brave, exactly the opposite, and he was sure no one would believe him anyway.

Walking through the dark streets, he heard a loud sound, like a deafening thud, which made his head fly in the direction of the sound. There, a few steps ahead, in a dark alley, was a teenager, no older than seventeen, straddling atop two full-bodied men who sat motionless on the ground. The teenager was bent over them, as if challenging them to get up, even though they looked dead enough.

A dark red liquid was dripping on the floor of the alley, coming from the two people. Takemichi yelped as he noticed the liquid on the floor, making his presence known.The teenager lifted his head at the sound, his gaze locked on takemichi. His black eyes cast a red aura, identical to that of the scattered blood, sending a chill down takemichi's spine.

Carefully standing up, his eyes made contact with takemichi's, examining them carefully. Two moments later he had raised his hand, pointing something shiny black at takemichi.Takemichi could feel his blood freezing in his veins, eyes widening involuntarily, in front of him was a teenager pointing a gun at him.

The other person smiled, his eyes lighting up, "look kid, it's nothing personall yeah, but I can't let you leave here after seeing this".

Takemichi was frozen, he wanted to cry, run or scream, anything, but his body was refusing his commands, he was scared, was he going to die? but he couldn't, he had to save Hina first, that was impossible, he was praying to all the existing gods to give him another chance.

He closed his eyes, he didn't want to accept his fate, but he couldn't do anything else, his body refused to.

A loud gunshot had been heard making takemichi squint his eyes but instead of the sharp pain he was expecting he heard a startled scream in pain. Opening his eyes he could see his attacker holding his  shoulder in pain, it seems that the dead men on the ground were not so dead, one of them being able to shoot the assailant.

Out of anger, he had shot the man on the ground, aiming straight into the head, then turned to Takemichi with a murderous glare.

"Looks like you got lucky, you see, I can't go home with this reckless wound, so if you want to survive, you're going to get me to your place, and lend me a first aid kit, how does that sound?"

Takemichi was baffled,was this person, who had just tried to kill him, threatening him to lead him to his house? what kind of weird situation was this?

At this point, he didn't know what to do, he was ready to turn around and lead him home, but something else happened. A tall person with a lean but strong body, golden eyes glinting in the shadows of the night, punched his attacker straight in the face, his eyes rolling into the back of his head.

,,Eh~, what, was that all? It looked promising but my expectations were blown, disappointing." he said in a playful tone, a mischievous smile playing on his face.

Takemichi stood frozen in the same spot, staring open-mouthed. Someone just punched a random person, it was appreciated, and he saved him, but it didn't make sense, why would someone do something like that?

,,Eh?~, and who are you?"

Wait a second, hadn't he saved him? Did this person appear out of nowhere and hit a person out of nowhere? Who does such a thing?

The unknown person stepped into the light making takemichi's heart stop, two tattoos could be seen on his hands, punishment and sin. This person who had just saved him, albeit unintentionally he was sure, was Hanma Shuuji, a delinquent who was part of Vallhala, what was he supposed to do?

,,You didn't answer my question." his cheery voice now sounded heavy, demanding, and scary, sending a shiver down takemichi spine.

,,H-hanagaki Takemichi" he answered quickly, fear taking over.

,,Hanagaki Takemichi" he  repeated with a hum. ,,What a stupid name"

Takemichi shrunk trying to hide his presence

,,Mitchy, that will be your name"

Takemichi stop , mitchy?

,,The police should be near , I suggest you run" with that, hanma left leaving takemichi alone.

Hearing the police sirens, he hurried to leave, avoiding a conflict. What a damn day.
