*** 3rd person pov***

Takemichi woke up from her bed after smashing the alarm clock, stretching her muscles before doing her morning routine with the feeling of grogginess overwhelming her.

For whatever reason, she had a dream of everyone. Each scene is shown of her being alone with either boys or girls in a romantic scene, all of them confessing their love...

' Ugh! What the hell is with my dreams?' A groggy Takemichi said after getting done dressing up. Poor girl, she doesn't know that those were her future visions. She looked at herself in the mirror and for the first time in her life, admiring and telling herself that 'she's beautiful. ( Hallelujah!)

Her phone rang and gladly answered after looking at the ID caller.

" You ready Michi?"

" Yup! Are you at the front now?"

" Yeah, Just take your time looking all petty~"

" Hey! I've already changed my fashion style!" Offended by his words making the girl pout.

' How dare he?! I'll show him!' She inspected herself in the mirror then gaze at her wardrobe. An idea popped on her head then quickly opened it.

—————

Takuya is waiting for his cr— 'friend' patiently. It's been 20 minutes now and he's still at her front door. Urging himself to call for her again when the door opened and to his utter shock, He was left speechless.

In front of him is Takemichi, wearing a blue dress that Kokonoi bought for her yesterday. Words could not describe her sudden change.

' When I said that she's petty? I take it back!'

" So what do you think?" She asked while twirling around to show elegance, making him blush profusely.

" You look beautiful..." He uttered out, trying to control his flustered face. The girl could only giggle, thanking him for the compliment.

" So My fashion senses aren't petty anymore?"

" Yup and I take it back."

" Yay! So, shall we go?" Takuya smiled as he grabbed her hand then both of them walk to the city of Shibuya.

—————

" Hey, Taku-chan..." Takuya hummed at her call while browsing books around the library. As boring as it is, Takemichi seemed to like it so he didn't complain. What can he say? he likes her and is in love.

" This is the book that I was talking about. Here, read it!" She handed him the said book. After taking it, he started to inspect the book such as the cover design, title and the summary at the back of it.

" Stop judging the book by its cover and read it." She glared at him, looking offended for not reading a sentence of the first chapter at least.

Takuya mumbled a sorry as both of them sat down on a vacant seat. He looked to see her already reading a book, which was probably a sequel to the book he's holding. As soon as he started reading the first chapter, it has already piqued his interest and didn't return the book if it was boring. Takemichi took notice of this and was happy that she was finally, able to convince her 'friend' to read it after so many attempts before.

She remembered how Taku-chan would come up with some lame excuses or would simply run away, just as long as the book wasn't near him. She was planning on shoving it down his face but, it won't be worth it and gave up — much to his relief.

" Enjoying the book I see?"

" Fine, I'll admit. It is a decent book, can we rent this?" She giggled, knowing that he's addicted to it now.

" I'll rent it, the librarian knows me." He gave out a nod then hand over the book, for her to rent it alongside other books she'll rent.

Once Takemichi approached the librarian, she was greeted with a big smile.

" Oh, little Hana! Came to rent this book again? And I must say, you look extra adorable as always." The librarian said while scanning the books making the girl giggle.

" Thank you Rei-san, also I'm renting that book again for my friend who's interested in reading it." The librarian's smile brightened even more after scanning and giving the receipt.

" How about I give these books to you, take them as a gift! Don't worry about the payment, these are on me as I have copies of them anyways." She was about to protest but the librarian's very persistent, not to mention, she's the owner of the library. Both of them exited the library with the book in hand.

At least Takuya's enjoying his little date with Takemichi.

They stopped at a convenience store as it's already lunchtime, but before that Takuya needed to go to the pharmacy to get refill his prescription. Takemichi insists on ongoing, leaving him no choice.

They've entered the pharmacy store then went to an aisle.

As they were about to go to the counter, they came across two boys. One of them is holding a bunch of stuffs while the other was dumbfounded. They made eye contact for a while before someone opened their mouth to speak.

" You two ok?" The one holding the supplies asked them both.

" We're fine, what's wrong with you guys?" She replied.

" None of your business." A tall guy with black hair answered, a bit rudely though.

' Oh my God! A cute girl is talking to us! Stupid Makoto, did you have to be so rude?!' Is what he's feeling right now.

" There's the kid a kid outside. Look like someone killed him." A small guy holding the supplies said, being polite, unlike the other guy. Takemichi's already familiar with them, so she let go of young Makoto's rude response.

' This idiot! You're lucky I'm not in the mood to commit violence. All height and no might.' Internally scolding Makoto but that doesn't mean, he's not feeling the same way once he looked at her.

" We need some supplies, but... We don't have any money." Young Naoto explained, mildly stuttering.

' Stupid Naoto! You're supposed to sound cool!' Internally screaming and wanting to bash his head on a wall.

' Woah, this little dude stuttered for once.' Makoto spoke inside, shocked at the newfound expression.

Takemichi wondered who was it, but for now, she needed to think of a way to help them. She looked at the cashier that she knew, is the owner... as much as she hated him, endurance should do the trick.

—————

" I like your glasses, Keene-san. You look just like Clark Kent." Takemichi complimented the cashier, making him chuckle creepily.

" I don't know about that..." He flattered while touching his glasses.

" Can I try them?" asked the young girl, making it sound so innocent. The man thought for a moment, swaying his body a little.

" Sure." He agreed then took off his glasses and gave them to her.

Takemichi wore the glasses, innocently asking what he thought. He leaned on the counter, almost close to her personal space.

" Well, How 'bout that? You look just like Lois Lane." Takemichi swore that she'll beat the crap out of him, next time. She urges herself to give out a smile and a small laugh, pretending to be flattered.

" Really?" She asked as she touch the glasses. The man gave out a hum, creepily saying 'yes'.

Takemichi continued to smile then remove the glasses. Though, as she was about to return it, she purposely knocked a bubblegum item pact that's beside the counter. She apologize as the man told her that it's fine. As soon as the owner bend down to pick up the fallen items, she looked at the boys behind her taking it as a signal for them to leave with the unpaid items. Giving out a small laugh as she eyed the saved bubblegum pact on the counter.

' A little mischief will do~' She said to herself then stole the bubblegum pact, placing it in the pocket while patiently waiting for the owner as she needed to get another one of Takuya's prescriptions, paying it, of course.

—————

" Just suck the wound." A young voice said as if trying to help when he isn't.

" I need to focus right now." Scolded the other one, who is Naota as he's busy concentrating on patching up an injured kid with Pink hair.

" You need to focus?"

" Yeah, can you go get me something?" Young Naoto requested as he wipe off the blood slowly dripping on the kid's stomach.

" Jesus. Well, what do you need?" Asked young Makoto.

" Go get my bifocals. I hid them in my second fanny pack."

" Why do you have two fanny packs?" Asked Makoto again.

Distracted by the scenario in front, Takuya is just behind, anxiously waiting for Takemichi. He was planning on going to go back to the Pharmacy to make sure that she isn't hurt or harassed by some creep.

" Well, I need to focus right now and it's a long story. I don't want to get into it." Takuya couldn't hold any longer then went out of the alleyway, though stopped and left frozen in place.

In front of him is Takemichi, with the view going slow motion watching her approach him. The bright sun made her glow as if he witness an angel flying close to him. The way her wavy hair flow and shine, her skirt swaying, her eyes and smile made his heart flutter. He's always convinced that angels flew down on earth and disguise themselves as humans, she's the living proof.

" Here you go, Taku-chan." She handed him
his other prescriptions. Takuya held up the money that he was going to use to pay for his medicines and planned to give it to her as compensation, but typical Takemichi, she refused showing the stolen bubblegum pact.

" Even- Steven." She said.

" Oh, God! He's bleeding! Oh my God!" Their moment was interrupted when they heard Makoto's outburst. Takemichi turned to look at what's happening, only to approach them when she saw someone familiar.

" Akkun?" She said, making Takuya shocked but following her from behind.

' Does she know him?'

" You have to suck the wound before you apply the bandage. This is 101." Young Yamagishi said, looking all smart cause he's the one wearing glasses.

" You don't know what you're talking about." An annoyed Naoto said, focusing on his work.

" Are you ok? That looks like it hurts," said Takemichi, approaching them with a worried expression.

The boys were left dumbfounded, not only is there a cute girl talking to them but her appearance is like an angel falling down the sky. They also wondered to themselves if she's glowing or the sun must've found its way in these alleyways.

" Oh no, I'm good. I just fell..." A young kid with pink hair, whose name is Atsushi or better known as Akkun said, trying to sound strong even though it hurts. He just didn't want to embarrass himself more, not to mention, in front of his long-time crush. Takuya who's behind her took notice of it, gave a sour expression.

" Yeah, right into Kiyomasa and his lackeys," Young Yamagishi spoke out and everyone turned their heads to face him. The boys looked at him with a ' Seriously dude', Takuya just gave a blank one while Takemichi looked even more worried but on the inside was rage and anger.

" Shut up Yamagishi." Scolded Makoto to their glasses friend.

" Why? It's the truth!" He quickly defended himself, not that they could deny that.

' Oh wait till I get my hands on them, I'm going to give them a slow torturous execution. Maybe I should give them to Tenjiku, if it's still in this timeline. Those sadistic Haitanis are better at that job and I should get some tips.'

" You sure they got the right stuff... to fix you up?" The girl asked, settling the sour mood with her radiant smile.

'It is not an Angel, it's a Goddess!' They all internally screamed while covering their eyes.

" You know, they'll take care of me. Uh, thanks Michi." Said Akkun making the rest completely shocked at this point. Cause one, How did a simple man encounter this Goddess? Two, What sorcery is this, or was it luck? Three, You've got some explaining Akkun! And Four, Cupid strikes.

" Sure, maybe I'll see you around."

" Y-yeah, we were both thinking of going to an arcade tomorrow... I- if... you wanna... come." All the boys were on ears, wishing that she'd say yes.

" Good to know, Thanks. Come on Taku-chan, Let's go." The man named Taku-chan followed behind, leaving the boys being giddy but stopped as they gaze at Yamagishi.

" Nice going, bringing up Kiyomasa in front of her."

" So Akkun, How'd you know that Michi girl?" Makoto asked causing Akkun to blush and they all saw it.

" We met when we had summer classes on music. She learned to play the violin while I learned to play guitar... met her at their classroom playing alone, so we interacted and became close. Her name's Takemichi by the way..." Everyone became jealous of him, not only that... they're angry for not telling them.

" Now pip pap and tally-oh, my good fellows! I do believe the chap requires our utmost attention!" Yamagishi interrupted, doing a British accent making everyone snap back to reality.

" Get in there, Dr. N. Come on, fix him up." Yamagishi gestured for Naoto to get back to work, despite not doing anything.

" Why don't you shut the hell up, Einstein, cause I know what I'm doing." Said an Annoyed Naoto, getting back on applying alcohol to disinfect the wound.

" Suck the wound! Get in there."

" Shut up Yamagishi!" Irritated yells, coming from the group that shut him up.

' Thank god, I swear if he opens his mo—'

" Hey, Akkun! Does Takemichi have a type?"

" Makoto! Duct tape his mouth please!" Yelled Naoto, who's finally had enough of this blabbermouth.

" With pleasure." A cheeky grin appeared on his face while bringing out the duct tape. The boy turned pale, asking why did he deserve such cruel treatment.

—————

" So, that's how you met Akkun?" Takuya asked his crush that giggled telling the story.

" Yup. Why? You jealous or something~?" She teased to a flustered Akkun.

' Yes, I am...' Is what he wanted to say but can't cause he's a cow— No, he's just not ready and it's embarrassing too.

" Wha—! Don't be silly... Though what if I am?" He mumbled out the last part, praying that she didn't hear it.

" What? Did you say something?" Thank God!

" Nothing, Let's just go get something to eat. It's already past Lunchtime."

" Alright, You're paying right?" Takuya pinched her cheeks for that.

" Idiot, I'm not that rich." He said then let go. Takemichi whined as she touch her cheeks, the pain is excruciating.

' What's with people pinching someone's cheeks?! It hurts!' She remembered her grandma, Chifuyu and Kaku-chan doing those for being a troublemaker or an idiot, not that some is her fault — it's just her usual idiotic trouble magnet charm.

Anyways, they both walk into a convenience store. They separated to search on each aisle just to find something good. Takemichi being a cheapskate, got ramen and only some water. She went to find Takuya, who raised an eyebrow at her.

"Again? Pick something or add more. I won't be mad Michi." Takemichi sighed getting blackmailed by him, so she went back for additions.

As she was searching for something she likes, her eyes landed on the last pack of Yakisoba. It's been one of her favourites, thanks to the influence of Chifuyu and Baji on a certain timeline.

She was about to reach for it when another hand collided with hers, they both made eye contact with each other then slowly backed away.

" Oh, I'm sorry! You can have the last one, I'll just find another." Takemichi quickly gave in, even in shock when she ran into someone familiar, giving off the same shock expression.

" Y-You're the saviour that saves us from the fire... I finally found you." Without thinking, the person hugged her, shocking her but was able to return the gesture.

" Umm... Y-yeah, You're welcome...Ummm..."

" Oh, I'm sorry for that. My name's Inui Seisu though some call me Inupi, Please to meet you... A-Akemi."

' Well, this is a turn of events... I think this went reverse,' She thought cause on every timeline, Toman was always the first one she'll have to encounter especially Mikey and Draken. For now, she needed to play as 'Akemi' so she could play as a boy and use her name 'Takemichi Hanagaki'.

" Oh, Are you, friends, with the guy named Kokonoi? He's talking about you at some point, even the girl, as I recalled, your sister named Akane right?" Inui wanted to smile and secretly thanked Kokonoi for the little help.

" Yes, you're correct. Akane is my sister and Koko's my friend. I'm also glad that you enjoy our little gift, sorry if it's not that much as we didn't have enough money." Takemichi's aware of that and felt bad.

—————

Flashbacks to everything they've spent together, having a soft spot of her trusted subordinates. When she was the appointed commander, it became a success that even the ex-black dragons came back and the founders from the 1st gen.

Inui couldn't contain his happiness at that time, getting her and Kokonoi to smile. Though the problem was Mikey, who would rip out her uniform replacing it with a Toman one much to her dismay and ordered Koko to get her a box of uniform. Draken got another migraine for it, trying his best to restrain their leader to save Toman's reputation — he even bowed down to her feet in front of the 500 Black Dragon members. When the unknown gang members learned about this, they immediately joined Black Dragons.

'The Legendary Ken Ryuguji is better known as 'Draken', Vice President and Founder of Toman... Bowed down on his knees to the 11th commander of Black Dragons, Takemichi Hanagaki.' That would look good in social media, Koko's words.

So the now total of members went up to 3,000 members, cause all of Toman — even The Invincible Mikey, bowed down to apologize for their man-child of a leader's disrespecting actions. Well, that initially screwed up Kisaki's plans from the gecko... that he joined Black Dragons and so was Hanma.

Imagine Kisaki trying to take her place; he did it unsuccessfully. Never underestimate the Black Dragon's loyalty, if there's a rat then instead of a lion's den; they're dragons.

" Kisaki Tetta, you are hereby fired. You've committed enough trouble and to the majority of votes. Please leave the Black Dragon turf." She announced, making everyone cheer. She's been waiting to say that for a long time the moment he joined, it's also ain't surprising when Hanma joined him — The four-eyed rat's personal loyal mutt, by Inui.

Unfortunately, that damn bastard managed to win again. Using Izana, bringing back Valhalla, influencing other unknown gangs. One by one, they were able to break off Toman and Black Dragons using dirty tricks taught by Kisaki. Takemichi urge herself to go back in time as things went downhill, leading to many deaths from both gangs.

—————

" I see, it's alright. Kokonoi bought me so many dresses as a thank you so we're even. I'm also wearing it too." She smiled while giving a little twirl on the dress Kokonoi bought.

Inui let out an 'oh', trying so hard to squeal but died down once he realized what he did.

' That bastard, didn't he try to steal my sister from me? And now Akemi?' What he meant by stealing his sister was an overprotective way, not an incest way.

Jealousy filled the young lad though an idea instantly popped into his mind.

" Hey, is it ok if we take a pic? I kinda wanted to show it to my sister and friend, please?" Requested Inui while bringing out his phone, being all shy and adorable as a puppy. Takemichi, swear that she wanted to pet him so bad and one of the reasons why she has a soft spot for him.

" Sure, I don't mind." Immediately taking defeat that got the boy wagging its tail. Unlocking his phone while both of them huddled together, with Inui holding the phone, he snapped a photo. Although, he wanted more and requested another one and Takemichi didn't even falter.

After a few minutes, they stopped at the 25th shot when Takuya arrived — almost calling her real name.

They both bid farewell with Takemichi taking the last Yakisoba pact before heading to the cashier.

Inui watched as both of them headed to the counter, paying them than leaving the store. He smiled at the last photo they took, placing it back inside his pockets.

—————

" I'm home..." Greeted Inui, entering inside their home while taking off his shoes, gently placing them on the side.

" Welcome home Lil brother," Greeted her sister, popping up beside her is his friend, or should he say rival.

" I'm sorry if I took a while, most of the stores ran out of Yakisoba but I was able to find one on another store before they ran out too." He explained then brought out the snacks on the center of the table. Both of them said it's fine and grabbed their favourite food.

" By the way, I met Akemi-chan." He added causing both of them to almost choke on their food, shock at what Inui told them.

" You're kidding right?" Kokonoi asked, trying to doubt his 'friend's' claims while Akane was surprised that his brother's luck. She'll admit, she's a little jealous.

Inui didn't say anything but brought out his phone, showing a photo of them as proof. Both of them almost screamed, especially Koko. Although, he did notice something odd... taking a closer look got him falling out of his chair.

" She wore the dress!" He exclaimed.

" Dress?" Asked a confused Akane.

" Kokonoi bought her a dress as a thank you from the fire incident, though I admit, I'm jealous." Answered Inui, putting back his phone before something bad happens and planning on printing them for his Akemi shrine. He got so obsessed that just by saying her name would get him into lovesick mode — Wake up!

" Aww~ That's so sweet of you Koko-chan! But I'm jealous cause you bought her something we couldn't." Whined Akane, giving a pout.

" Hey, Inui..."

" Yeah?"

" Can you share a photo of her with?"

" No."

" I got her the dress!"

" And I got the chance to take a photo!"

" You selfish— Ack!" Inui threw a pack of gummy worms, hitting his friend right on the face. Both of them gave chase with Akane laughing as she watch the scene uphold in front of her. Even though her jealousy lingers, she couldn't help but admire their saviour for getting these boys to change.

' Thank you...'

***End Of Chapter***

Lmao... I forgot to add some shit here.

The Pharmacy scene is preferenced to the new 'It' movie.

Mizo squad + Hina and Naoto are my serotin for always be at Takemichi's side. ( I love them) and they deserve a lot of screentime! Some of Y'all are sleeping on them.
