The Youth Division

Chapter 7

7.

I swear to god my only use on this team is 'Team Pillow'. Japan was my region, and I spoke perfect Japanese and wrote perfect Kanji. When we reached our hotel, the desk clerk greeted us. "こんにちは、私たちの施設へようこそ！ 私たちの無料ワインと食べ物をお楽しみください!"(Hello, and welcome to our establishment! Please, enjoy our complimentary wine and food!).

I responded. "ありがとうございました！"(Thank you!)

Japanese took me so long to learn. It's nice it will see some use. Our hotel room was spacious, and very comfortable. We went with the same pairings as last time, and I won the rock paper scissors match this time. But tonight was essential to our plans. I can't mess this up.

***---__+__---***

The girls wore the skimpiest kimonos I have ever seen. Mira looked incredibly uncomfortable and Pyra had trouble getting it on. We had to get a new one. Raven wore one with a longer skirt, making the kimono look similar to a dress. I wore casual clothing. A jacket, t-shirt, jeans, and I had brass knuckles in my pockets. Just in case. We pulled up to the club and I took a deep breath. This is crucial. We need to catch Viktoria before she does anything game changing with those enhancements. When I walked into the club, I was greeted by a couple servers. They spoke English, because they could tell I'm not Japanese. "Drink?"

"I'm ok, thanks."

She went to the next customer. I moved forward and saw that Mira, Pyra, and Raven wouldn't be the only ones wearing skimpy clothing. I headed up to the VIP level and saw our target. Wei Yamekaze. I took a seat near Wei, who was surrounded by girls and guards. I looked over the balcony to see Mira and Pyra picking up the burliest man they could find. The guy was at least 6 feet tall and totally jacked. I'm so screwed. They told the guy to find another girl so they could 'get it on' in the back. Mira shuffled around in her stilettos, and Pyra winked at the guy and left him to find another girl. They sat next to me and I reluctantly put my arms around them. Pyra made a couple notions with her hands. "No, Pyra, I've never had a girlfriend."

Mira looked at me surprised. "Really?"

"Nope, never."

Pyra made more symbols. 'He's coming back'

"Alright. Strike up conversation!"

I panicked, and apparently so did Mira. "WOW, YOU ARE SO HANDSOME BABE! YUP, NO ONE CAN COMPARE!"

Did she really just say that? Pyra added to that stroking my chest. That sent shivers down my spine. I panicked again. "YUP! THE BEST THERE IS!"

Wei overheard us, and smirked. The manly man walked up to me. "Who da hell are you? Why you with my babes?"

I sized up the guy. He was massive. "These are my girls, あなたが聞く？ それを信じて！"(You hear? Believe it!)

He looked down on me. "You weally want to do dis, shwimp?"

"Screw it."

I landed a blow right in the middle of his chest with my right arm. He took it and reeled, so I uppercut his jaw. That put him on his back. He got up and threw three punches. I blocked all the punches, and on the last one, grabbed his wrist, and put his elbow on my shoulder. I pulled, breaking his arm. He howled in pain. He went on one knee and grabbed his arm. I kicked the knee that was up and broke that too. Then Pyra added her own twist and kicked his face. She smiled at me, looking for approval. I gave her a smirk. He was out cold. I shook my hands. I heard clapping behind me. Wei applauded my 'show'. "Hey! That was some dope fighting, ブロ！"(Bro!)

"It was nothing! I've taken on much worse!"

I'm not lying, but I had a gun so that was much easier. I acted surprised. "Hey, you're the notorious Squirrel boy! Wei Yamekaze!"

"The one and only. Actually, you're in luck! I need some crew members for my team. You interested?"

I nodded without hesitation. "Hell yeah, dude!"

Wei looked at Pyra and Mira. "Those your chicks? They American?"

"Yes and yes! I got a third here too, but I think she went to get us drinks."

"Damn! You are squad worthy! Roll with me, bro, I got a deal going down at the shrine. You down?"

"Sure. Can I bring my ladies?"

"Of course man. Meet me outside. I'm the limo."

He flashed a peace sign and headed downstairs. Pyra sighed. She signed me. 'You are so weird.'

"I know."
