The Future Looks Bright

Chapter 16

"Y/N!!! Calm down!!"

Takemichi kept trying to calm me down.. both him and Naoto but I was too bewildered. I paced back and forth all while Draken watched me silently panic. I mean.. FIRST my brother is in jail?! Like wtf and NOW Mikey, the sweetest boy I've ever met (and the love of my life cough cough) MURDERED SOMEONE?! Oh hell no!

"I got it!!!" I stopped mid pace and I slammed my fist into my palm causing everyone to look at me. "He was framed! HA! I'm a detective."

"No Mikey did it. We all watched him kill Kazutora." Draken stated while I deadpanned him. I felt like a damn detective solving a case and of course it had to be ruined.. welp. There goes that idea.

"October 31st..." Draken started making sure to eye us through the glass window.

"The bloody Halloween. Even though Mikey was just a teenager being dumb and reckless.. on that day he ended up killing Kazutora."

Naoto sat up against the wall and Takemichi looked as shocked as I was.

"Mikey was never caught because Kisaki prepared a patsy for him. Then as things progressed Mikey fell into an eternal darkness... Toman was taken over by brawlhalla and it expanded into a giant organization with Mikey as the commander and Kisaki Tetta as acting commander."

"Mikey was probably the reason Kisaki wanted to join Toman in the first place."

"WHAT IS THAT BITCHES PROBLEM?! He must be in love with Mikey or something!"

I slammed my first on the table, my outburst even startled Takemichi a little bit which I didn't understand why. He started shaking.

"What?!" I barked at him.

Without any words Takemichi slowly pointed down at the table... well... the once perfectly whole table that I somehow managed to split right into two halves..

"Oh... oops.."

"God damn it Y/N."

Naoto punched the bridge of his nose in frustration. I didn't mean to break it I swear!!!

...I think.

"So... Mikey killed Kazutora?? That's bullshit! He would never!" Takemichi slammed his fist against the glass.

"So you wouldn't have killed Kazutora?" Draken stood up. Making sure to eye me specifically.

"He killed his brother, nearly killed you and on that day he killed Baji right in front of him."

What..?

I slowly blinked towards those words having to process them. "He... killed.. Baji..?" I said subconsciously trying to gather my thoughts but eternally... I was a fucking mess.

"You saw it with your own eyes."

At that statement I started to have flashback.. flashbacks of memories that I didn't even remember. These were not my memories.. these were the present me's memories.. but in the past I don't recall any of this..

Because it hasn't happened yet..

We left the prison after some time.. Takemichi head hung low and I walked with my arms crossed over my chest. The silence was loud... at least to me... because I tuned out whatever the hell Takemichi and Naoto were talking about. I couldn't believe any of the information that Draken told us about.
