Future TJ played the last sentence that Vain said before he left about leaving terror on people's faces in his head.
This enraged Future TJ.
"NOOOOO!!!!!!" Future TJ screamed as he transformed and began shaking the island with his rage. After a moment, he dropped to his knees and calmed down.
Lubbock and Esdeath then arrived at the island.
"Thank god. He's alive." Lubbock sighed. "But what actually happened? Where's Vain?"
Esdeath then went down to console Future TJ.
"TJ darling." Esdeath said, getting his attention. Esdeath then knelt down to him and placed a hand on his cheek. "It's okay darling. You did fine."
"No. I messed up big time." Future TJ said. "I've failed..."
Esdeath then kissed Future TJ on the cheek which calmed him down. "I said you're okay." Esdeath said as she smiled at Future TJ. "Just tell us what happened."
At the Path of Peace:
"Vain's ability is incomprehensible." Najenda thought. "There's no question that TJ's power eclipsed his but somehow he was able to dominate the battle. Then to let TJ live and not finish the fight? Damn it! What is he up to?
On the Island:
"A martial arts tournament!? You don't think he was serious, do you?" Lubbock said.
"Damn him! It's all just a game to him!" Esdeath thought.
"Who is even going to enter? If we can't do anything, who else is going to try?" Lubbock said.
"No. I will. The minute my dad and my younger self come out of the forever room; I'm going back in to train myself some more." Future TJ said.
"I will go with you." Esdeath said.
"Me too." Drone #6 said as he walked over to everyone. "I will enter as well."
"You've got to be kidding me." Lubbock said.
"But first, I beg you to take me to the doctor known as Stylish." Drone #6 said.
"Why should we?" Future TJ angrily protested.
"Please, I wish to be useful." Drone #6 begged.
"No fucking way." Future TJ protested. "I'm not bringing one of Rumi's puppet ass trash cans anywhere near my family or friends!"
Lubbock then walked up to Drone #6 and placed a hand on him.
"Okay, we'll see what they say." Lubbock said.
"Uncle Lub!" Future TJ said.
"It'll be alright. Trust me." Lubbock said. "This guy is nothing like the Drones you know in your time."
"How do you know!?" Future TJ said.
"Seven and Eight were both different, weren't they?" Lubbock said. "You said it yourself. They didn't seem all that bad. I don't know if I'd call them nice, but they were nowhere near the monster you told us they'd be. Besides, this is no time to be picky about who we get to lend us a hand."
Lubbock then wrapped Drone #6's arm over his shoulder.
"Thank you." Drone #6 said.
"Come on Tatsumi baby. I need to go back in there." Esdeath thought.
In the Forever Room:
It was now burning, scorching hot in the forever room to the point it was literally on fire.
