"KILL THEM!" Tombstone yelled as he got off the vehicle he was thrown onto.

The yakuza went on the offensive, y/n and Jennifer wasted no time.

Jennifer used her arm block  a sword strike and punching the attacker away, minding her strength so that she only knocks the attackers out.

"First The Hand and now some wannabe samurai, this is getting ridiculous." Jen groaned she cut a sword in her hand a and uppercut another goon away.

Y/n was expertly handling his, keeping his on the hilt of his blade.

Y/n leaned away from a dragon kick, jabbed the hilt of his sword in the stomach of his attacker before uppercutting them, the projected a force push several others flying.

"TRAITOR!" a goon shouted as he aimed a pistol at him and starting firing.

Y/n was unamused as he spun his blade in a circular motion, catching each bullet before lining them up on the ground and sending them back.

The Bullets hit several targets, taking them out of the fight as they tried to nurse their injuries.

Jen glanced at Y/n from the corner of her eye, curious by what the goon meant by traitor.

Soon several other goons began opening fire on Jen, the bullets annoying her more than anything else.

"You boys are out of your league!" Jen yelled out before spreading her arms out and unleashing the perfect move to take them out.

"THBAMM!" Jen unleashed a thunderclap then send the goons flying, knocked out upon roughly landing on the ground.

Tombstone groaned as he was the only one left to fight. " You want something done right, you gotta do it yourself."

"Bring it, blockhead." Jen smirked ready for a fight.

Tombstone growled and began to engage she hulk, adopting a boxing stance, he sent out a few jabs which jennifer blocked , jen threw a right hook but Tombstone ducked and delivered a blow to jens side.

"Ngh!" Jen groaned wilting a bit from the blow.

Tombstone smirked and took the opportunity to go for an uppercut, only to find himself frozen in place, covered in a light blue hue.

"What the?!" Tombstoned yelled confused.

Jen didn't waste the opportunity and delivered a well placed haymaker which sent tombstone rolling to the ground.

"Grr..." tombstone growled as his nose started to bleed, having been broken.

Y/n walked to Jennifer's side, his eyes glowing blue signifying he was the one who froze tombstone in place.

"They didn't tell me you were a telepath." Tombstone said looking at y/n.

"They should have sent someone better." Y/n expressed, not feeling threatened by tombstone in the least.

Tombstone glared at him, but then smirked. "No matter, there's gonna be more than that came from." Tombstone." Tombstone then look at jen. " and you're a part of this now Jen, better sleep with one eye open tonight." Tombstone said chuckling.

Jen narrowed his eyes,  meanwhile y/n in an impressive display of speed, dashed  to tombstone and roughly grabbed his head.

"Sleep" Y/n growled.

Tombstones eyes rolled go the back of his head before passing out.

"What did you do?" Jen asked in shock.

"I overloaded his senses, he's gonna be unconscious for a few hours." Y/n explained looking over tombstone

"Okay." Jen said, relieved it wasn't what she thought.

Y/n walked up to her no sporting a more gentle look. " were you harmed?" Y/n asked concerned, looking over her for any possible injuries.

Jen felt conflicted about that look, she was glad he cared that much but he was not out of the woods yet, she took a step back. " Im Fine...im gonna call the authorities , don't go anywhere." Jen said firmly, pulling out her phone.

Y/n looked hurt by the shift in her attitude but he only blamed himself. " ok." Y/n said nodding.

Soon Jen had dialed 911 and several police officers made several arrests,  with Jen explaining the situation, leaving out the detail of Y/n being linked with them.

Y/n was seated on a nearby bench,  just eyeing his katana, he then heard footsteps and  looked up to see  Jen, looked to the side to see the cop cars and ambulances leaving the scene as well as his damaged car being toed away.

"Jen.." y/n started, unsure what to say.

" you said you can explain, so start talking." Jen said with her arms crossed and a firm look on her face.

Y/n nodded, he owed it to her, especially after the mess that just happened.

He began breaking down everything to her, how his powers were passed down by his parents, how they were cutdown and how he grew into the yakuza life, how he was subjected to work for them, believing it to be in service of his family but then seeing the damage that was being done to the people of japan, how he had to eradicate his clan to escape, all of it.

" Shield moved in to ensure they couldn't properly rise to power once again,  Agent coulson offered me a new home in New York, a chance to be something different and i accepted, and well...the rest is history." Y/n concluded.

Jen was seated beside him, her hands clasped together with a contemplative look,  his tale was a harsh one.

"That....that was a-lot." jen said unsure how else to put it. " Im sorry you had to go through that...I'm sorry about your parents." Jen said remorsefully, no one deserved to go through that.

Y/n  nodded. " it's ok, thank you."

"I just...i don't understand y/n.." jen said as she stood up. " why did it take you this long to tell me?." Jen asked with conflicted look.

"It wasn't my intention." Y/n expressed with a sad look. " i was gonna tell you today, thats why i wanted to go to central park, to find a quiet place to talk ...i never wanted you to find out like this,  i never wanted to put you in harms way." Y/n expression apologetically.

Jen was still unsure what to make of it. "And what about you and me, was it all a lie? Was this just to help you forget about the yakuza?..." Jen asked, a minor yet audible crack in her voice.

Y/n eyes widened. "Jen no. " he stood up and gently held her hand. " my time with you has been something i wouldn't trade for anything in the world, you make me  feel things  in a way i never thought possible,  what we have  jennifer, what i feel for you, it is no lie, i swear to you." Y/n said looking her in the eyes.

Jens slightly clenched her hinds tighter, her heart longed for those words, but this situation wouldn't allow her to let that be the end of it. "...would you have told me, if you were attacked today and I wasn't here."

Y/n eyes widened at the question. "I...." He started to ask himself if he would have told her. " I..don't know..." y/n said sadly, knowing that wasn't a good answer but he didn't know what to day otherwise.

Jen took deep breath in, then out. " Y/n, i have no regrets over meeting you, spending time with you has been something of the most fun ive had in a long time, you have made my heart beat in a way i didn't think i would ever feel again." Jen said truthfully gently rubbing his hands.

Y/n was warmed by those words but knew there was a but, coming.

Jen released his hands. "But i...I'm not sure about this right now,  I wouldn't have judged you then, not for a second, and despite everything, there's a chance you would've  ben put in harms way, and you wouldn't have told anybody..not even me." Jen said with a hurt look on her face.

Y/n could only look down in shame.

Jen gently released his hands. "Im..gonna need some space,  to think about...us." Jen said with a sad look

Y/n nodded. "Ok"

Jen pulled out her  phone from her pocket. " I'm gonna call a taxi, please....don't text,  bye y/n." Jen said as she walked down the road.

"Bye jen." Y/n said as he watched her go , go on her way.

Y/n sat back on the bench , holding his sword , tightly in his hands, his enemies have made contact with him, his fear had come to pass and now, there was a strong chance Jen wasn't gonna look at him the same way as before, effectively ending the possibility of becoming closer, there was only one thing y/n could say now.

"Fuck...." Y/n said, laying his head against the hilt of his sword, left depressed with how everything turned out.

A Week Later.

It had been some time since that day, y/n  was currently laid up in his couch, a random action movie.

Since the attack, y/n has tried to go about his daily life, working at the restaurant but after a couple of days and seeing that his mind was elsewhere Bo told him to take some time off until his mind was clear.

Y/n still hadn't received word from Jen, he had to fight down the urge a couple times as he really wished to hear from her.

He didn't realize how much he talked to Jen until he wasn't anymore, part of him wishes jen would just tell him they couldn't make it work so the bandaid would be ripped off , but he still held out hope, its all he could do.

"RING...RING..."

Y/n saw his phone ringing on his desk, hoping it was Jen finally, but his hope died when he saw it wasn't,  it was agent Coulson.

Y/n considered hanging up but Phil only ever called if it was serious. " hello Phil." Y/n greeted simply

"Y/n, good to hear from you, just got a report that you got attacked by the yakuza, I'm sorry, I know I said I'd contact you but the yakuza caught wind of our spies and retaliated, was to busy trying to clean up that mess, lost some good soldiers." phil expressed apologetically.

" I understand Phil no need to apologize, Im just sorry people lost their lives." Y/n expressed remorsefully. "I should stayed in Japan a little longer,  given those bastards more of reason not to come over here.." y/n growled, clenching his hand in anger

"You couldn't have known,  we're gonna handle this don't worry,  remember you're not alone in this." Phil said reminding y/n that  S.H.I.E.L.D ere and plenty of heroes were around to help.

"Yeah.." y/n said.

"Hey I also heard Jennifer was on the scene too, how are things going with you and her?" Phil asked interested.

Y/n winced at that. " we... aren't speaking at moment, things are up in the air, I don't want to get into it." Y/n said not wishing for this to be the topic of discussion.

"Oh...I'm sorry the hear that kid, I hope things go well." Phil said sympathetically.

"thanks..me to." Y/n said in a hollow tone.

" well..back to the main topic, when you got  attacked ,is there anything you can tell me?  Any noteworthy face I should keep track note off?" Phil asked seriously.

"No, they sent foot soldiers after me, the one leading the was a large man with pale skin, tombstone."  Y/n explained

"Yeah, Alonzo Lincoln, he's a crime boss under the kingpin, we received word he got released , kingpins as deep connections in the police unfortunately." Phil said fustrated.

Y/n scoffed "corruption, what else is new?" Y/n said sarcastically.

"Yeah I know...was there any Alonzo said to you in the skirmish? Anything important?"phil asked.

Y/n went through his memory bank  and tried to recall anything that might have been said then remembered and he chastised himself for forgetting until now. " yeah actually...he said there's a bounty on my head." Y/n said seriously.

"Oh...shit, damn it that means both parties finally came to an agreement , someone get me on the Black Net Now!"

Y/n was now confused. "Phil what's happening?"

"Hang on! If he talked about bounty a week ago and nothing has happened since then.....shit kid your bounty went up 5,000,000! , dead or alive, they know where you are, i need you get out of there now!" Phil exclaimed loudly.

"CRASH!!!!"

Several Ninja in red robes had suddenly burst through his window, ready for combat.

" uragirimono, Ima sugu kōfuku shite kudasai! Soshite anata no shi wa sumiyaka ni okorudarou. (Traitor, surrender now! And your death will be swift!)." The leading ninja and red ordered.

"Hmph...Motto motte kurubekidatta.( hmph..you should have brought more.) Y/n said not feeling threatened in the least.

"Y/n, Whats happening?!" Phil yelled over the phone.

"I wont be long." Y/n told phil hanging up.

The Ninjas threw bombs to the ground, coating the room in thick smoke in an effort to blind Y/n.

"Amateurs." Y/n thought as he remained rooted in place.

Y/n waiting for them to strike, he tiled his head avoiding a chain sickle, he grabbed the chain and yanked it , bringing the ninja into view, y/n grabbed him by the neck then crushed his windpipe, he then harshly punched him in the chest, shattering his entire ribcage and sending him back into the smoke.

Another Ninja made mistake of trying to close the distance with two tantos, y/n dodged several strikes before catching the attacks right wrist , breaking his hand an causing him to drop the tanrk, the ninja tried to attack with his left but y/n dodged and put the guy in a sleeper hold and swiftly broke his neck.

The smoke was beginning to thjn out and y/n saw the last one dashed towards him with a katana intending to deliver an overhead strike.

A fatal error.

"SLICE!"

As the ninja approached, his body began to split apart , both sides going past y/n and falling the ground.

Y/n telekinetically flicked the blood off of Sento and took it back into his hands, he then pulled his phone towards him and called phil, who picked up immediately.

"Y/n! Jesus don't just hang up like that, what happened?" Phil asked concerned.

"Hand assassins busted in my house, i took care of them." Y/n said simply

"Well thats good , no time for relaxing though more are going to be headed your way." Phil advised.

"Yeah and it's safe to say im not gonna be to live here anymore." Y/n said as he looked over his apartment, the address would be common knowledge to villains now , remaining was asking to be attacked.

"Well them's the breaks, whats the plan?." Phil asked.

"Fight, I've hid long enough." Y/n said he went to his closest and picked out some clothes.

"Y/n be smart about this, half the cities must be after you." Phil advises, not wishing for y/n to be reckless.

" I know, but its better their attention is on me then on anyone else, get some soldiers here, get in contact with some available heroes, but I'm not going staying here, it's time i make the yakuza regret ever coming to new york." Y/n said firmly, leaving no room for argument.

"Well...alright, il see if i can get in contact with the avengers and the fantastic four, and get some soldiers out there, be careful out there y/n" Phil said.

"Will do." Y/n said as he hung up.

Y/n went to his closet and got some decent clothes on, a black coat, with a black long-sleeve shirt, black plants and shoes, and carrying a wakizashi (short katana) as a side weapon to go along with Sento, and a black mask to conceal the lower part of his face.

(Imagine hes wearing a mask)

Y/n was prepared for battle, but before he left the apartment , a thought crossed his mind.

"there's a chance you would've been put in harms way, and you wouldn't have told anybody...not even me."

"Jen..." y/n spoke, remembering her words as he pulled out his phone and looked at her contact.

Y/n didn't want to get her more involved in this, but this may be bigger than him now, bigger than his situationship with jen, the villains would take the opportunity to hurt innocents if it meant getting to him, she was a hero and she protected the people, she needed to know.

Y/n typed in the message, detailing the situation, and then he sent it, with that out of the way he was ready. "Time to go." Y/n said as walked out of his apartment.

30 Minutes Earlier, Jennifer Walters Apartment.

Jen was having a difficult time, ever since the day of the attack , Jen has been trying to come to grips of what y/n had told her, unsure where they should go from here, even now as Jen laid on her bed looking at y/n in her contact.

"Knock Knock Knock."

"Come in" Jen answered, she already knew who was knocking on the door.

The door opened revealing it to be patsy. " Jen, you weren't returning my texts I was worried" patsy said as he closed the door, concern in her voice.

"Hey pats, I'm sorry, I've just.." Jen trailed off as she sat up still looking at her phone. " had a lot on my mind.." Jen said , not sure how else to put it.

Patsy now looked concerned. " like what?" Patsy asked as she sat on Jen's bed.

"Y/n.." Jen said sadly.

"Y/n? Wait you said you were going on a date a week ago..." patsy then began to get mad. " Jen did he hurt you? I swear to god when when I get my hands on-

"No no, he didn't do anything...well he did but... it's not what you're thinking, it's complicated." Jen said with a sigh.

Patsy could see the distress in her best friend and laid a comforting hand on her leg " well I'm here aren't I? Talk to me, maybe I can make it less complicated."

Jen looked where friend with a weak smile, thankful she was here. " thanks pats...well here's what happened..."

Jen began recounting everything that happened the day of the attack, how things had gone smoothly, then suddenly went left when the yakuza and tombstone attacked, how their goal was to get to Y/N, she then broke down how y/n had actually been apart of the yakuza and didn't tell her until then, though she made sure not to tell her the more gritty and personal details out of respect for y/n as it wasn't her place to talk about that.

"And we haven't spoken for a week." Jen said as she finished telling patsy everything.

Patsy absorbed everything with a contemplative look. "Damn..okay so i wont have to kick his ass....for now." Patsy said with a serious look.

"Patsy..." Jen said, playfully flicking her hand at patsy's arm .

Patsy chuckled "Kidding hehe, so, y/n use to be in a gang, and wasn't able to tell you until shit hit the fan, do you want me to tell you that it's a dealbreaker?." Wishing to clarify that detail.

Jen shook her head. "No No,  he wasn't a criminal by choice he gave up that life, he even has Shield to vouch for him on that,  it's just why couldn't he trust me? If this was something he was dealing with  he could have counted on me, If they came after him  he would have just kept it to himself...and god forbid if he died... " Jen said trying to keep her emotions in check. "I just...how can i seek something with somebody who can't lean on me?."

Patsy hated seeing her like this, she held Jens to comfort her. "I get it girl, i mean you told him you're a hero and a defense attorney he should have been able to tell you sooner....but at the same time i think you messed up too."

Jens eyes widened in confusion. "What?? What do you mean?"

"Let me put it to you like this,  Y/n is a guy who was born into the yakuza life, against all odds realized what he was doing was wrong and got out, even helping shield take them down,  now he comes to unfamiliar new york with and from what i can tell, has no friends except for an old lady and a shield agent, no jab to him, you are the one person he's really connected to, and you are both now at a place that can be considered past close friends, can you see that maybe he really didn't want to risk losing the one person he deeply cares for in this big city?" Patsy said , giving her take on the situation.

Jen was floored, having been presented an angle she didn't see until now. "I...didn't think about that." Jen said downcast.

Patsy nodded." And i get that, you weren't thinking clearly, it happens, now let me give you another angle, if we are talking about keeping things to ourselves...
Y/n would be allowed to say the same thing about you." Patsy said simply.

"What do you mean?"jen said not understanding.

Patsy gave her a look, not needed to speak the words for the jen to know.

Jens eyes widened in realization. "Oh...oh..." jen said finally seeing what patsy was saying.

"2 moths talking, don't you think you should have told him about that?" Patsy asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Yeah...i should have." Jen said and began looking at her green hands. "Didn't think about that either."

Patsy held her hands again."And now i ask you this? Do you like y/n, and i mean like like him?" Patsy asked seriously.

"I.." Jen began as her mind replayed all the wonderful memories she had with y/n. " I do." Jen said firmly.

"Does he feel the same way?" Patsy asked looking y/n in the eye.

Jen then looked back at the words y/n had said to her a week ago.

"what we have  jennifer, what i feel for you, it is no lie, i swear to you."

Jen grew a smile and a bright blush. "Yes"

Patsy then shook her hands" then quit being silly! You hit a little bump in the road so what? Who said this was gonna be a smooth ride?, you deserve to be happy jennifer, talk to him, don't quit before it's even begun." Patsy said with a smile.

Jen took a deep breath, patsy was right, and she was glad she saw that now before she made a rash decision. " you're pats, heh, would've went with my dumb brain if you didn't help me see otherwise." Jen then brought patsy into a hug. "Thanks Pats, Thanks for being the best."

Patsy smiled and got a bit emotional as she returned the hug." And don't you forget it."

"DING!"

The hug was broken as they saw jen had received a notification.

"Heh, looks like someone got impatient." Patsy said playfully.

Jen raised her eyebrow with a smile." You don't know that."

Patsy gasped playfully. "Do you still doubt my intuition?"

Jen just shook her head with a smile, she was surprised to see that it was indeed y/n. " I hate you." Jen said playfully as she was right.

"Hehehe." Patsy chuckled teasingly.

Jen opened the notification bubble, however what she was reading killed her smile.

Y/N

"Jen, I know you told me not to text and I'm sorry but i don't have a choice in the matter, The Yakuza has placed a $5,000,000 bounty on my head, I've dealt with the first attack and i can only guess who else is going to come after me, innocent people may get caught in the crossfire and I hope you can come aid in the battle. I know me and you are dealing with something right now and i hate to put this on you, so please don't do this for me, do this for the innocent people who are gonna get dragged into my mess.

As soon as jen was done she threw her phone on the bed and immediately ran to her closet.

"Damn what did he do now?" Patsy said surprised at the rush she was in.

"Read The Message!" Jen yelled looking through her closet for her uniform.

Patsy picked up the phone and read it. "Well shit" patsy said now understanding the problem. " well whats the move girl?"

"Suit up." Jen said firmly as she finally found her uniform.

Patsy smirked, it was about time they got to see some action.
