I'm off to get vaccinted tmr, wish me luck, I hate being injected, not needles, but the feeling of the liquid entering my bloodstream

~·~·~·~

"....Now then... He should arrive any second now..." You muttered with a calm smile, looking down on the street below, watching as a car parked at the front of your office. Two familiar faces got off and rushed inside, of course, they were easily let in, you made sure they could enter your place easily. "Chie, welcome our guests."

"On it." The younger woman bowed, running outside your office to welcome the two.

"They sure took their sweet time.." You sighed, sitting back down on your chair, preparing yourself for this reunion. Back in the past, if you remembered correctly, the last time you saw Takemitchy was when you led them to Osanai. After that... "Welcome, Takemitchy, Naoto-san."

"(Y/N)-chan!!" Takemitchy beamed, glad to have finally seen you after so long. He immediately noticed the difference in appearance from the first timeline, there were no scars, and your hair was long with blonde highlights. "And you didn't get in an accident this time! I'm so glad!!"

"Takemitchy, you're gonna cry again." You chuckled, motioning for the two of them to sit down. "I sent Chie to get some drinks. What kind of drinks do you want?"

"A-ah, no it's alright..." Naoto shook his head, refusing your offer.

"Alright then." You placed a hand on your earpiece, contacting Chie and telling her to not bring the drinks. "Now then, Takemitchy, what questions do you have?"

"Valhalla."

You went silent, looking down at your desk with a sad smile. Of course, he'd be asking about that, that was the last time you met the future Takemitchy, after all. And that was when everything went to shit.

"Who was the leader of Valhalla?" Takemitchy continued. "It's Kisaki, right?"

"....Ah... Well, you could say that..." The two men furrowed their brows, not understanding your words. "Kisaki was an acting leader, like Hanma. But the real leader of Valhalla... was Mikey."

"WHAT?! Isn't Mikey the leader of Toman!?"

"Valhalla was created for Mikey." You continued, gripping your seat to keep your emotions in check. "In the battle twelve years ago, Toman lost. Valhalla took over Toman with Mikey at the top. And after that, Toman became corrupted."

"But... How did Toman lose?" Takemitchy asked. "Toman has Mikey, Draken, Mitsuya, you and the others..."

".....we lost because..." It hurts just remembering that day. The day you were torn apart. "....Mikey... Killed.... Kazutora..."

Drop. Drop. Drop. Tears flowed down your cheeks as those memories came to resurface, Mikey killing Kazutora while you sat to the side, holding onto your stab wound, bleeding out in pain while holding Baji. ["Your stab wound"]

"But he would never kill anyone!" Takemitchy exclaimed, his voice slowly getting weaker, getting affected by your crying.

"....Please... Takemitchy... save them..." You sobbed, standing up and bowing to the man. "Please! I'm begging you! You have to step them... You have to keep Kazutora from killing Baji... if Baji doesn't die... Mikey won't have another reason to want to kill him!"

Unknown memories came flooding to Takemitchy's mind. The images he was seeing... was this Bloody Halloween? Mikey beating up Kazutora to death... Draken standing in shock... Mitsuya trying to patch up the bleeding wound you had with Baji beside you, laying unmoving on the ground... Was this it..? ["Bleeding woulnd you had"]

"....(Y/N)-chan..!" Takemitchy exclaimed, his face running with tears, mirroring your own. "I'll stop it! I'll save both Baji-kun and Kazutora-kun! I'll make sure that won't happen!"

"....Thank you..." You looked up, your face was a total mess, you could tell. "Before you go... I have something to give to Naoto."

"For me?" Naoto asked, leaning forward as he received a folder from you. He didn't know what was in there, but it must be something confidential when you took it out of a locked drawer, the key dangling on your neck.

"This is all my life's worth of work. Everything you need to know about the current Toman, their core members, Kisaki, and all of their plans. I want you to take it, Naoto."

"...T-thank you..." Naoto stuttered as he took the gold mine of information from your hands. He truly can't help but admire your work. You really were the best informant there is.

"Then, can I have a talk with Takemitchy alone?" You turned to Naoto who nodded, standing up and leaving the room. Once you were alone with him, you took a deep breath. "Takemitchy.... Did you know, I'm gonna get married in two months."

Takemitchy's eyes widened as he took in a big breath, so big that he began to gasp and cough. "R-really!? Is that so!? Congrats, (Y/N)-chan!!"

".....Thanks..." You muttered, looking down on the ground with a frown. Takemitchy noticed it and began to question this marriage and if you were forced to do this. "...No. It's more like... I got myself in this situation... It was my mistake."

"W...what happened? Who are you going to marry?"

"...The one who orchestrated Hina-chan's death."

What? Takemitchy seemed to not have processed what you just said. There was no way! He refused! I mean, how could he!? What you just said sounds absurd! You were the last person that would even get close to that person! There was no way you were marrying-

"YOU'RE MARRYING KISAKI!?" 

"WHAT THE FUCK!? NO!!" You exclaimed, slamming your hand on your desk, startling the man. God just hearing that felt so disgusting and infuriating. "I'm talking about Hanma Shuji!"

"WHAT!?" He gasped, looking even more shocked than before. "B-but! Then what you're doing right now- Aren't you basically working behind their back!? If you're engaged to Hanma, doesn't that mean that you're connected to Toman!? Will you be alright!?"

"Don't worry, everyone in this building is working for me." You answered calmly, smiling without a single worry in the world, but you could tell that he can see through you right now. "Every person you see walking here is Toman's enemy, so you don't have to worry about it."

"But... what if Kisaki hears of it?" Takemichi couldn't let it be. He was worried for your safety. But you didn't have time. You have to tell him everything today and no other day.

It'll be close to Halloween soon. And he has to go back before that.

"Just- Let me tell you this before it's too late.." You sighed, sitting back down on your chair and massaging your temple. "I... I have regrets in this life, most of them are my friends' deaths. And another one is..." You paused, playing with the diamond ring on your finger. "The other one is... using someone to refill my sadness."

"...(Y/N)-chan..." Takemitchy felt sad. The face you had... it was so lonely and so regretful. Just how much of your feelings have you been burying, how much of it have you been hiding, how much of it have you cast aside and used fraud contentment?

"So... when you return to the past, please tell this to my past self..."

"So, you're back and didn't send a word?" The man inside the car chuckled, lowering his window to show you his face. Your fiance looked up at you with a smile, patting the passenger seat inside the car. "So? You free today? The boss wants to invite us to go out drinking."

"'Free' is a word of luxury for me." You said with a laugh, entering the car, sitting beside him. As you were putting on your seat belt, Hanma gave you a kiss on your cheek, giving you a welcome back. "Yes, yes, I'm back. So, any news?"

"Hmmmm, nothing much, just killed a few people here and there." Of course, that was what he would answer.

That is why you hate him, he didn't give a single fuck for all the people that he killed, and that included your own friends.

"Of course you did." You hate this man, with all of your being. But as for why you're with him... it was because you had nothing else to do. In other words, you were bored. "Honey, mind buying me some new clothes? I've been wanting to replace my wardrobe back home."

"Hm? Sure." He reached for your hand, intertwining his fingers with yours, placing it on his lips, and giving you a kiss. "Anything for you, love." [chapter 21.5 previews got me hurtin]

"Welcome, Lady (L/N)!" The various members of Toman bowed in line as you entered the empty restaurant, privately rented just for this night. "Please have a seat, we shall take your items from you."

"Here you go." You handed them your coat and various shopping bags and the bouquet of flowers. You looked around with a smirk, walking off to the only prepared table in the restaurant. "Shuji will be coming in a while, he's out smoking. When's the boss coming?"

"He'll be arriving in about fifteen minutes, my lady." One of them answered, standing behind you as your guard.

"So, are all the preparations ready?" You asked, taking out your phone, scrolling through social media.

"Yes. All that you've ordered are ready." You grinned, laughing quietly, not being able to contain your excitement. "Everyone is ready to move at your order, Kashi-san."

"Yes, yes... That's good..." Ahh... what pleasure to finally have this day arrive. You've been waiting for this moment for years. You've tried so many times, yet all of them have failed, but this time, it was going to be perfect, everything is gonna go as planned. "I'll bring you to your death... I've long waited for this day.... Kisaki."

If someone were to look at you right now, they might be scared to death. There was nothing more but madness and insanity in your face.

(L/N)(Y/N) had long fallen to lunacy, and the only thing that could ever bring you back was your revenge.
