Chaos and torment.
The two things Delle endured the most in her life. As she tried to get out of the mess, she got entangled with different kinds of people. Delle came to love being with them, and finally found someone who let her experience peace...
There were times when Mikey acts and pretends to threaten people, but then he'll just smile afterwards, but now... it's as if the universe is showing me what's really happening.
Mikey's gone...
He grabbed Michi by his clothes and lifted him up effortlessly. My cousin teared up in both fear and worry for him, and yet he smacked him in the head like he's nothing, like we meant nothing to him.
"No! Oh, God! Michi!" I ran to stop them, but this time, Ran clutched my arms.
He's still here? I thought he left!

"He's going to die at this rate!"
Ran stared at me. "...I can't let you die by his hands."
"What? Ran! Argh! Koko!" I turned to Koko who's too stunned to move. "Anyone! Please! Stop him!"
But who should I expect to help? Everyone's afraid.
"Hanagaki!" Senju yelled. Mikey still didn't stop.
He's not gonna stop until Michi's dead...
No... No... No... No! He can't kill Michi! You can't kill my cousin! Mikey! No! Please!
"Mikey!" I wailed. "Stop it!"
"Mi...key..." Michi uttered, blood all over his face.
"Let... go of me!" I slapped Ran and shock spread in both of our faces. "Ah. I-I'm... sorry."
What did I just.... I lost control.
He was hurt, but he smiled. "Simple price I have to pay," Ran said, but he's now looking behind me, and behind us was Senju, now bowing to Mikey.
She caught me by surprise.
Senju begged Mikey to stop and for that, she'll disband Brahman. Thanks to her, Mikey really did stop. I watched him walk past me as he left with Sanzu and the rest of the gang. I couldn't follow him anymore.
I just couldn't.
Koko then helped me with Michi, and I didn't see Ran after.
"We'll take Hanagaki to the hospital," Koko said. I nodded like a robot.
I couldn't compose myself after seeing that.
Mikey was... going to kill my cousin.
He was going to kill his friend.
That's not our Mikey. He's not my Sano Manjiro.
"Senju-san..." I called her over before everyone left.
"You're..." Senju tilted her head. "...Hanagaki's cousin and Sano Manjiro's... Eh?!" She and everyone else gasped when I bowed down to her. "What—"
