"Thank you, please come again." words followed by an exasperated sigh.
Hopefully that makes the last customer for the day.
Takemichi's thoughts wander due to the fatigue that has finally caught up with him after a day of working non-stop only taking an hour break for lunch.
CD DVD Rental Store, Takemichi had been working there part-time as his only means of getting by. But lately, inflation has crept through everyday essentials and Takemichi finds himself spending more money than necessary. In conclusion, his supposed 'part-time' job has turned into a full-time one just so he can have a little bit more purchasing power.
Around 4 pm—the shop's closing time—Takemichi thought it'd be a nice idea to rest shortly, so he did.
[ !WARNING! ]
[ This world is about to collapse! ]
Suddenly Takemichi finds himself awakened by a noise, of what sounds like a fire alarm ringing? But as he opens his eyes, a system window appears before him-but he is unaware of what it is.
[ !WARNING! ]
[ This world is about to collapse! ]
"...Collapse?" Before Takemichi could process the message that appeared before him, a bright light shone and he lost consciousness.
[ Processing... ]
[ Transporting... ]
[ Welcome host, to <Luminal Space> ]
A constant ringing threatened to break open Takemichi's brain. Slowly, he regains consciousness once more and is greeted with an unfamiliar environment. The room he was in looked 'futuristic'? At least that's what Takemichi thought. It looked like a cyber space you'd see in science fiction genres. The glow that illuminated the place was a light cyan and he squinted his eyes hard hoping to find someone somewhere in a neverending void.
[ Welcome Host ]
"Host...?" Takemichi stared at the floating screen. "Just what is happening..." He asks confused, almost ready to cry his heart out probably.

"BANG-!" a loud resonating sound pierced through an empty alley-empty aside from the almost unmoving body that lay on the cold concrete.

The night was young but dark nonetheless, yet there amid the dark a figure stood staring at a distance that looked no more than a void due to the lack of lumination. An inkling dread settled in his heart, as if he'd lost something, of course the invincible Mikey would never own up to such an emotion. What could he possibly have lost? If anything he gained peace, that finally an annoying person has finally made an exit out of his life, forever. Maybe that's what bothered him, that person will never return. While focused on his thoughts a voice calls out to him.
"To think he'd die just like that." The man said rather, disappointed?
"Kenchin." Mikey calls out to the man, hair dyed blond, the sides of his head shaved clean to reveal a dragon tattoo situated on his left temple.
"Ain't even upset? You've lost your greatest admirer." The man joked, already aware of the answer.
"Good riddance." Is all the shorter uttered before walking past the man he dubbed 'Kenchin'. The man followed behind him.
Somewhere else, Inupi sat quietly in the living room of Black Dragons' headquarters. Koko had tried several times to converse with the lad but failed just as many, until he decided to leave the young man to his own thoughts. What was making him think so much? Making you wonder where were the gears to his head when that person was still with them.
Inui wasn't the most empathetic person but he was at least capable of giving someone a chance. How could he have failed this one time, and it would be the one time he'd regret for the rest of his life.
"I'm sorry," he said towards thin air.
"I let my own perceptions shroud my judgement, forgive me..." was there truly nothing he could do with his grief?
At the Shiba household, a faint smell of incense roams the air, in the midst of that a ginger haired girl offers her prayers. After a moment, someone enters the door.
"Did you light some incense?" The older male asked while carefully scanning the room.
"The real question is, why didn't you?" Yuzuha replied, eyeing the man.
"That kid..." he gave a slight pause while taking off his coat and placing it at the nearest chair he could find, "He wouldn't have wanted me to do that." He continued walking away, providing very little argument as to why he would think that.
In the end it was not Yuzuha's place to say anything. On the contrary she had treated the man quite coldly while he was still alive, she had no right to be lighting incense for him.
