*Kiyotaka's POV*

*After his speech*

I listened to the other politician give his speech. Applause came directly after, which crushed my hopes of winning.

"Taka, calm down..." Makoto said softly, putting a hand on my shoulder.

I eased into a relaxed stance, the tension being released from my body. But I still was worried. Afraid our efforts were for nothing. I realized I was young, but that shouldn't change the fact that I was just as educated on this things as any other politician. It shouldn't affect their view on me. It's selfish to say, but I might possibly be better than the competition.

Shaking my head to rid the thoughts, I awaited the results, my body becoming tense once more. Not even Makoto could help me calm down now.

After many more long minutes of waiting, the results came. I stiffened, waiting, knowing fully if rejection came, I couldn't let my disappointment show.

"The results of this election is a 53 percent in the favor of our new Prime Minister-"

(I need thoughts guys)

*Present time*

*Third POV*

Mondo paced the length of Chihiro's living room, mumbling to himself. Chihiro sat on the couch, watching him. He knew they were too slow in reaching Kiyotaka. But he wasn't giving up.

Deciding he needed help to take action, he excused himself and went into another room to make a phone call. Shaking off a few nerves, he pressed call on a contact in his phone, waiting quietly for an answer.

"Yo! Chihiro! Ya need something fixed again?"

Chihiro smiled softly at the voice of the easily excited male on the phone.

"Ah, no. I was hoping you could help with finding someone for me."

"Eh? Why not ask Kyoko?"

"She's, um, busy... I wasn't informed of what with, but..."

"Ooh, alright then! I'll ask Hajime if he knows anyone. One sec."

"Thank you Kazuichi." Chihiro sighed in relief.

He waited as he heard commotion on the other side, then yelling from a certain Yakuza, followed by Kazuichi's terrified shriek and several apologies. Another voice joined the commotion, and after a while of calming down both males, the new person took Kazuichi's phone.

"Hajime Hinata speaking. Who is this?"

"Ah, i-it's Chihiro Fujisaki."

"Oh, hey. Long time, huh?"

"Y-yeah. Um, I have a favor to ask."

"Look, I already told Yasuhiro I'm not helping him get money."

"Ah-! N-no! It's not that!" Chihiro sweatdropped. What was Yasuhiro thinking?!

Hajime chuckles softly. "I'm pulling your leg. What do you need."

"Ah, um, do you know where Shuichi Saihara might be?"

"Shuichi? Yeah, I know. Why?"

"Um, I need to talk to him and a few of his friends."

"Mmm, alright. I'll give you his number."

Chihiro grabbed a nearby paper and quickly scribbled the number on an available space.

"Thank you Hajime."

"Anytime. See you."

"Bye!"

Chihiro ended the call and peeked in the other room to check on Mondo. He was in the kitchen at this point, making himself a cup of coffee. Chihiro sighed softly and returned to the room once more. He dialed the number Hajime gave him. The phone rang once, twice, three times, before it was answered.

A shy, slightly timid voice rang in his ears.

"Ah, um, hello?"

Chihiro, for some reason, felt like he should be gentle with the male. He, in some way, reminded him of himself.

"Hello. Is... This Shuichi Saihara?"

"Ah, it is. Um, might I ask who you are?"

"O-oh, of course! I'm Chihiro Fujisaki."

"Well, Fujisaki, is there-"

"Shuuuiiiichiiii!" A rather loud, childish whine sounded from the other side.

"Kokichi, be quiet! I'm on the phone!" Shuichi snapped.

Chihiro heard the other male, Kokichi, laugh, clearly unfazed by the rudeness in Shuichi's tone.

"But Kii-boy is soooo booooring! Even though he's a robot!"

"You know, you could at least try to hide your robophobia!" Another voice responded, clearly annoyed.

Chihiro blinked in surprise. He knew there was a robot among them, but he didn't know it was self aware.

"Kokichi, please, I'm busy at the moment. Go bother Kaede."

"But you're my love!"

"Kokichi!"

"Nishishishi~" Kokichi laughed, followed by the sound of footsteps walking away.

"Ah, I'm sorry about that." Shuichi says to Chihiro.

"It's alright. Um, perhaps it would be better to meet up?"

"Ah, of course. Do you know where the flower shop is?"

"Mhm. I pass by it every day."

"Perfect. Meet me there."

"Alright. I'll see you there."

"Ok." Shuichi ended the call.

Chihiro put his phone away and headed into the living room. Mondo glanced up at him, sipping at his cup of coffee.

"What were ya doin'?"

"Making a few phone calls. Um, we need to go to the flower shop."

Mondo raised an eyebrow, questioning him silently. Chihiro stayed quiet, hoping he wouldn't have to explain why he was meeting up with a stranger at a flower shop. Mondo might think it was a date. Surprisingly, Mondo simply shrugged and got up.

"Alrigh', let's go."

Chihiro quickly nodded and grabbed his keys and laptop, leading Mondo to the flower shop a few blocks down.

Inside the shop were rows of different types of flowers, arranged by type and color. The shop itself wasn't that big, about 40 feet long and wide. There was another room in the back, possibly storage.

At the counter were 4 people, all having unique characteristics.

One male had his back to them, talking to the girl on the other side of the counter. He was in all black, his hair appeared to be a navy blue, hidden beneath a black cap. The girl was a bright contrast to him, with blonde hair, pink eyes, a white button up underneath a pink vest. Chihiro couldn't see the rest of her outfit and decided against moving to see it

Near them were two more boys, both almost identical in height. One had messy purple hair with matching eyes, a checkered pattern bandana around his neck, and a white outfit. Kind of like cult getup... The other male had pale blonde, almost white hair, blue eyes, and a black body with green and yellow lights.

The robot... Chihiro thought. He hesitantly approached them. "Um, I'm looking for Shuichi Saihara..."

The male in black turned around to face him. Underneath his cap were yellow eyes.

"Ah, Chihiro Fujisaki? I'm Shuichi Saihara."
