Chapter Text

Our journey starts in a world of mysteries and wonders, where things as magic and creatures exists each having their own type of magic and powers to leave, one may fly while the other can simply swim trough the deep ocean while not having to get tired, others have the power to dig and creat city's underground that are save from any dangers, others can run faster then any other humans g being or creature out there and then there are those whole live permanently in the sky they aren't like the flying creatures these people live in the clouds and call it their home and our hero? He was none of those, he wasn't a beautiful Angel flying trough the sky, he wasn't a digging mole or was a swimming mermaid in the water, he was a plain human living in a city he had no clue about and why was that? He had no idea.

Takemichi can't remember anything at all, when he woke up he was in a infirmary being taking care of by a nurse as she spoke in a language he didn't understand before she gave him a little crystal to hold, Takemichi was confused but took it as he suddenly could understand the woman as if the stone could translate anything she said.

"Hello there, I'm Miss Franklin and we found you unconscious in the woods can you tell us your name? Or what happened too you?" The woman said as Takemichi just looked at her puzzled trying to think of anything that might have happened but it turned up blank as he shook his head making the nurse sigh softly.

"No, I know my name is Takemichi...Takemichi Hanagaki" The nurse nodded at him writing it down as she gave him some weird looking liquid that was in a glass the only way he could explain it was that it seemed like a potion in a video ga-

Takemichi stopped his thoughts, he remembered that these things didn't exist in real life so why was it here and why was the nurse even giving it to him in the first place, he looked at her bewildered as she sighed and shook her head.

"This is a healing potion, please let me help you drink it okay?" Takemichi just nodded slowly at her words still bewildered on what was happening in the first place as his brain was working on a solution while letting the nurse help him drink it. Takemichi felt a weird tickling feeling as the wounds he didn't even notice from before finished, the wounds on his hands that looked like scrapped wounds vanished, the ankle that looked bruised and hurt a second ago was okay again and the best part was that the headache he just had vanished as well.

Takemichi flexed his legs and arms as the pain was away looking amazed and surprised as well as he couldn't believe what just happened in the first place letting the nurse leave as she didn't get anymore Information and decided to just get the doctor instead to make sure her patient didn't turn crazy.

Takemichi immediately began thinking how did he even get here he was sure he was from a world there was no magic or even portions at that, he sadly couldn't remember anything other then he was from the modern world where everything was different then here but when he tried thinking about who he was or what the world was like he felt nauseous and a headache so he stopped and laid back against the pillow again. He did feel panicked about not remembering anything at all, he practically lost the thing he need most.....his identity and now? All he knew was his age and name which was annoying even frustrating, his brain was telling him that he need to remember something, something very important yet he couldn't remember it at all no matter what he did.

Frustrated and annoyed Takemichi began tearing up trying to remember anything he could, really just anything with out feeling like he was about to puke his guts out or like his head was splitting open but nothing was working he just couldn't remember who he was and what he was before he got to this world. Gladly his mind was stopped as the doctor came into the room looking at him as Takemichi was crying, he quickly whipped his tears away looking embarrassed at the doctor who smiled softly and came inside sitting down on the chair next to him.

The doctor looked about his 30ths, he had white hair and a small bear, his hair was short but stylish in Takemichis eyes, he had glasses and a white coat on which he guessed was normal as well in this world he did see his name tag which said Dr. Franklin, he guessed the doctor must be the husband of the nurse who left a few minutes ago.

"Hello mister Hanagaki can you tell me what you remember as my wife told me you could only remember your name? Do you remember anything else maybe?" Takemichi looked at him before nodding softly as he clutched the small stone close thankful that he actually got this stone so he could understand the man.

"I'm 16 years old....i think? But other then that I can't remember" Takemichi mumbled unsure if he should tell the man if he actually was from another world or not but for not he decided to say nothing not wanting to land in a asylum for talking nonsense.

"Okay good, my Wife also told me you didn't understand it language did you? So your either from another nation or an out lander" the doctor said as he slowly lifted his gaze from his paper letting him look over his glasses just a little, Takemichi gulped not sure what the doctor would do if he did say yes but that was quickly answered as he scribbled something onto the paper and help it up for Takemichi as it just looked like weird symbols and scribbling.

"At your face I will concluded that you either can't read or that you don't know anything at all, so in my conclusion your not from here are you? Rell me what world are you from?" The doctor said as he let the paper fall back into his notebook before closing it as he started at Takemichi waiting for an answer. "Am I right?" He said slowly as Takemichi didn't answer immediately.

Takemichi gulped again knowing that this was either he doom or a way out, if the doctor knew of other worlds that means this way normal and that there was either a way out or he was trapped here for ever. Or the Doctor would simply deem him as dangerous and sell him to a guard and make him do hard labor or kill him but he was sure that wouldn't happen!

There was no way!

"Yes I'm not from this world I don't know how I got here so will you help me?" Takemichi said hesitantly as he looked at the Doctor with hope as he put all his hope in him

Well where there is a will there is a way.

Not even 3 hours later he sat in a carriage like prison which bars as everyone sat he'd him while the guards took him, it was like a parade of people just looking at him and whispering while watching him closely and what did Takemichi do? He just sat there crying and whining how he will never trust anyone again while the carriage took him out of the city and into a forest road

Takemichi wasn't sure how long or where they where even taking him in the first place and it was getting cold since it was turning night Takemichi tried talking to the guards but they quickly shut him up after glaring at him and taking the speaking stone that helped him understand people away so here he sat in a carriage cold and no way to communicate to the other guards, that was until he suddenly heard groans around him and the lights going out from the magical stones. Takemichi was sure this was it as he started tearing up and hugging himself praying to anything that he would survive some how.

Well that was until someone threw him over his shoulder and began running through the forest in a high speed making Takemichi flinch and yelped like a hurt puppy trying to clutch onto the person not wanting to fall off even if this person was technically kidnapping him right now. He'd rather die to a person then trying to jump of his shoulder right now and get a head trauma but that problem was quickly solved as he was knocked out unconscious. It was that the one who kidnapped him hit him no. How did it happen? The person who was kidnapping him jumped and made Takemichi hit his head in a tree branch which to Takemichi hurt a lot and he may have lost some brain cells, but it's not like he will miss them.

When Takemichi woke up he was laying on a bed with his ankle chained to the bed so he couldn't get off the bed, he was sure it was some kind of magic as Takemichi himself couldn't touch it or even grab it for that matter. So here he was sitting on a bed alone with a chain he couldn't even touch and not knowing what would happen next for that matter. Takemichi just sat there crying inside as he just wanted to know how he even got into this mess like damn what had he done to get teleported to a world that shouldn't be real! And why can't he remember anything? He should at least know what happened before he got here but everything was blank.

Then before Takemichi lost himself in his mind again the door opened with a very tall person entering inside, he had what looked like short blue hair and some weird wolf ears? How is that possible!? Takemichi looked at the person scared and shocked as he hugged the blanket close like it would protect him from the enemy he was facing, but that was wishful thinking and he knew that himself. But the moment that person walked closer Takemichi burst out in tears feeling too scared.

"Okay! W-Wait!! Don't hurt me o-or I will h-have to fight back!" Takemichi yelled as the person stopped looking at him shocked and confused as he held his hands up speaking in that language that Takemichi didn't know, which made him just more scared before the boy or man before him waved and called someone into the room this time it was a girl with long brown hair but she also had wolf ears making Takemichi more scared as those 2 began speaking to each other while Takemichi tried to somehow get the chain off but it was no use since he couldn't touch it.

The girl turned to him making Takemichi flinch as she threw a stone too him, Takemichi reacted as he cought it looking confused at it before he remembered that it was a stone that made him be able to communicate to them. Takemichi held it in his fist deciding he would keep it this time.

"Can you understand us now little scarry cat?" Takemichi looked at the wolf girl now as she began speaking looking at him with a weird look that Takemichi wasn't sure about what it meant, as the blue haired man of boy, he wasn't sure, stood beside her with a look that said also something he couldn't decide what it meant, either pity or...nah he thinks it was pity.

"Y-yes....what do you want from me?" Takemichi mumbled hesitantly at her as he was still scared of her not sure what those two would be capable of after all they were half beasts in Takemichis eyes.

"Well we heard your an outlander right? So we want to make a deal with you!" The girl said smirking as she held out a hand or paw? Takemichi wasn't even sure if he would call it a paw as it looked like a normal hand except it had sharp claws and those little pats that animals have.

"What deal?" Takemichi asked hesitantly as he looked between those 2 unsure if he should trust them or not but in the position he was in he was sure he couldn't refuse them even if he wanted too. In the end they could simply force him since Takemichi couldn't get away even if he wanted too unless he was capable of breaking of the bed leg and running away.

"Simple! We want you to help us best or big brother while we help you escape this world! We as a high family in society of the wolf clan know of the portal to get out of here! All you have to do is beat or brother" the girl said, not only shocking Takemichi with the fact that the boy next to her was her brother but also that Takemichi had to beat this siblings brother, who was a wolf!! Like hello a WOLF!! On of the worst animals to fight! There was no way Takemichi would win against a monster like that! Not in a million years and he didn't even have to see the guy!

"Uhm...huh? I'm sorry but did you look at me!" Takemichi said tearing up already seeing the end of his life right before him if he tried fighting a half wolf human or what ever they were in the first place!

"We did, that's why he wouldn't expect us to betray him! As if we let you fight him alone, you wouldn't survive a second" the girl said waving her head as if it was obvious, like ofcourse it was! But did she have to be rude!?

"Just give me a second you want me, a Human who doesn't belong here!! To fight a half wolf human or what ever you people are!? Are you serious like I don't want to be rude really but I have a home to go back to!" Takemichi said in tears as he was pale at just the thought of having to even stand before a guy like that.

"I told you he would be scared...and he hasn't even seen Taiju" the girls bother said next to her as Takemichi looked at them with tears hopping they would let him go after all, but Takemichi knew if he wanted to go home he would have to do as they said, even if he was scared.

"Shut it Hakkai, we need a distraction so we can fight that bastard! He wouldn't expect this guy to challenge him and when he is laughing and fighting we will rip him to pieces!" The girl said as Takemichi looked even more terrified as he was about to pass out just from the thought alone.

"Now listen here! All you have to do is try and get close to our brother and then am distracted him! You see he likes to collect people that are weaker then him and then train them! Since you look cute and weak we have a chance he will do it!" The girl explained as Takemichi looked even more shocked, he got too overwhelmed and just sacked back into the bed passing out cold.

"Look what you did Yuzuha....he is out cold again" Hakkai said as Yuzuha sighed annoyed and crossed her arms over her chest huffing and puffing as she left the room to cool down a little and get some fresh air while Hakkai looked at Takemichi and covered him with the blanket properly before also leaving the room as well waiting until the man on the bed would wake up again so they could talk some more.

To their surprise it took almost the whole day before the boy woke up again, which annoyed Yuzuha go hell, they wanted to move this plan along before they lost their chance! It was just so frustrating to her, but when Takemichi did woke up she left her brother Hakkai explain for her since she was about to burst with anger.

"So please.....help us" Hakkai pleaded as he looked at Takemichi whit puppy eyes, he always used those if he wanted something and Yuzuha snorted knowing no one could not fall for those eyes even Taiju once fell for them before beating them right after.

"We just want to be free from or bother....we really didn't want to involve anyone else into or family business but we had no choice so once we heard an outlander was again in our world we took the chance since Taiju likes collecting them and using them, but don't worry! The most he does is command you around and make you do as he says" Hakkai explained as he still had puppy eyes one making Takemichi falter and look unsure as he didn't know what to do but as those puppy eyes just wouldn't leave he gave in sighing as he nodded softly.

"Okay I will do it....but you really must promise me that you will help me leave! I may not remember what happened but I just have this urge...i want to go home" Takemichi said as his eyes turned sad, he wasn't sure why he felt so sad all of a sudden at his own words or what he was missing, all he knew is that he was craving his home what ever it was. While doing so he missed the looks the 2 siblings gave him, a look of pity? Or perhaps a longing of wanting a own home just like this person before them had.

"Then you have a deal, just tell us your name" Yuzuha said now in a softer voice as she looked at the sad boy Infront of her, as as he held out what looked like a amulet or more like a neckless with the stone he had in his hands, he looked confused until Yuzuha just hung it around his neck and took the stone out of his hand. It seems it was an easier way to speak now as he didn't have to hold on tightly to the stone anymore.

"Takemichi....Hanagaki Takemichi" Takemichi said as he looked at the siblings who looked at him, he still wasn't sure if what he was doing okay but when he had seen the relief they had after he agreed he was sure he was doing the right thing, after all it must of been hard to kidnap him get him here with our getting in trouble with guards and then explain their whole back story to him. Now that Takemichi recounted that back into his head....it was just a kidnapping....and a way of manipulating him! Takemichi sighed realizing after he agreed that this was all planned after all! Sometimes Takemichi could really feel his stupidity to his last Braincell that he seemed to still have intact.

"Okay Takemichi, here is some food, in the afternoon tomorrow we will give you to our brother, just hold out okay? Try to get his favore and found out any weakness hell it would be enough if you could distract him enough for us to attack him" Yuzuha said as she handed him a raw meat....Takemichi looked at it disgusted and confused as he was too shocked to speak as Hakkai quickly took it back scolding his sister.

"Yuzuha humans don't eat raw meat! They need normal food!" Yuzuha rolled her eyes at Hakkai as she got up and left to get regular food while Hakkai watched her take the meat with her before turning to Takemichi with a apologizing look.

Takemichi just sighed not sure if he would be able to really survive all of those as the mission hasn't even started yet and he was already feeling ill and weak before even meeting this scary bother of those 2 siblings. Takemichi looked at Hakkai now studying him closely he wasn't sure but since he has seen this boy he was sure he knew him from somewhere but that wasn't possible as he was sure he wasn't from this world, Hakkai who seems to see his stare stared back at him confused as he tilted his head waiting for the man to say something.

"What are you two idiots doing now?" Yuzuha said coming back with a sandwich now as she looked at the both guys looking at each other as if it was a staring contest or something. Hakkai turned to her just shrugging as he just took the plate and gave it too Takemichi who took it embarrassed having completely spaced out while staring at Hakkai.

Takemichi began eating as he hummed in satisfaction having not noticed that he had been hungry, he was so glad to finally get food that he teared up as the 2 siblings liked at him before starting too laugh at the happy face Takemichi was making while Takemichi looked embarrassed at them before ignoring them with a soft grumble and just enjoying his food. But he wouldn't have it as the 2 siblings kept teasing him on how he looked like a chipmunk or like he hasn't eaten in weeks.

"You really are a crybaby Takemichi! Alone since we meet you you have been crying almost the whole time! You must be a real emotional guy" Yuzuha said laughing as Hakkai couldn't hold back his little snorts, but Takemichi ignored it all just eating the sandwich before sighing and feeling relieved after finishing it all.

"Say what you want im finally feeling like a full human being who couldn't care less right now" Takemichi making them both laugh at him again while Takemichi grumbled some more, after they left giving him a good night rest which he didn't really have too much at the end he fell asleep after all, he just wasn't sure he wanted to wake up the next morning to face the said brother of those siblings.

And he was right, the moment he saw the brother he really had wished he didn't accept the proposal because that man was a monster!! He was huge Takemichi barley reached his chest hight! And let's not talk about the huge as claws he has! Takemichi could if fainted on the spot weren't It for the siblings behind him looking scared as well as the man checked Takemichi out, Yuzuha and Hakkai had put him into a suit that looked elegant on him and got his hair all fluffy and wavy with some weird water making Takemichi look more like a nosy butler in one of those Mahnwas then an actual teenager.

"What do you say b-boss?" Hakkai said hesitantly as Taiju glared at him before looking at Takemichi again making Takemichi sweat and pray to anyone who has out there that they would save him from this horrible nightmare but of course that wouldn't happen, he was pretty sure at this point that there was no god to begin with.

"Fine I will take him" Taiju said waving his siblings away as they looked at Takemichi before leaving, the boy already felt his tears prickle up not being ready to be alone with this titan of a man what could snap him in half by just pushing him, or even just graving him. But that was quickly thrown away as the man yelled at him to follow him and Takemichi quickly followed him on shaking legs.

"From now on you belong to me! Got that? What ever I tell you to do goes!" Takemichi flinched but noddles furiously not wanting to get a beating on his first day of being enslaved, well that's what Takemichi will call this, there was no way he will call this a mission! He was simply being enslaved.

"Good! Now show me what you got in fighting power!" Takemichi looked at him confused and scared not seeing anything that he should test his strength on expect Taiju who was drink g in the middle of the training room that had some more people around all being wolf hybrids

"Go on! I don't have all day try to hurt me" Taiju said annoyed as Takemichi flinched and looked hesitant knowing he wouldn't even leave a scratch on this man even if he tried too, but now he had a decision, either he obey and tried hitting him or he refused and said he can't do that risking getting yelled at or besten. So Takemichi chose to sigh softly and hit Taiji with everything he had but he quickly held his hand that was hurting as his eyes teared up while he saw Taiju look at him and start laughing as other hybrids laughed as well.

"he couldn't even hurt a fly!" One said while laughing while the others ripped jokes as well leaving Takemichi there embarrassed but knowing he got it over him with out getting yelled at or besten to a pulp so that was a win for him even if he was getting embarrassed Infront of such a crowd.

"Was that all you got? Really!? All I can use you for is to get me food and pamper me!" Taiju said laughing as he hit Takemichis shoulder playfully making the boy go flying a feet to the ground making people laugh even more before Taiju put him back onto his feet.

And that's how his torture started Takemichi had to follow Taiji around having too carry things or watch him beat people, he would have to bring him his food or even just entertain him by showing him how weak he was, but Takemichi gladly did that rather then having to fight others or getting a beating like those clan members did of his, he even meet 2 people as well those were the 2 most loyal to Taiju they were nice too him enough that Takemichi wasn't too scared of them, their name were Inui and Koko, they did help him sometimes or treated his bruises he get from being hit playfully by the other clans man, unbeknown to Takemichi the mission he was on was already succeeding as Taiju began growing on him as well as inui and Koko, they began testing him nice while Takemichi was just trying to survive in the clan then after 2 months of this it started too feel weird.

Like Takemichi knew these people, like he had been throw this before...each time he saw Inui and Koko his head would hurt a little and also feel happy? He wasn't sure why but he stayed mostly close too them, when he saw Taiju beat someone up he would feel disappointed? Takemichi just didn't know why and what was happening at all he tried pushing it away until the day where a war between clans broke out, apparently the Wolf and another Wolf clan didn't get along? This was the White wolf clan while there was a black wolf clan? It was just so confusing to Takemichi. He didn't even plan to be still here! But he promised to help he promised it Hakkai and Yuzuha who told him to be careful as those 2 siblings were weird as well they suddenly hung out with him more as well even if they hated their brother. Now here Takemichi was standing to the sidelines with Inui as he was assigned to protect him by Taiju which Takemichi was thankful for but also confused why the man would even drag him here for the first place when he couldn't even fight or anything so he turne to inui asking himself.

"Say Inupi? Why did Taiju tell me to come as well if he would just let me stand here and burden you to watch out for me?" Inui turned to him with a soft face and a small smile as he began explaining in a soft voice.

"You see the black wolf clan is know to be good at tracking down, now our clan is strong and well protected but the possibility of one getting past us to attack you was very high so we rather have everyone here to watch rather then leave them behind in the base alone" Takemichi looked at him understanding a little as he just nodded, he looked back at the fight, if you could call it one seeing Taiju practically throw those people around like a ragdoll or even as toys but as Takemichi wat hd he suddenly felt a spike of recognization as he suddenly saw Taiju replaced with out his ears and in a weird uniform before he felt. Painful headache swaying as he had to hold onto in his shoulder for support as Inui looked worried and held him.

"Takemichi!? What's wrong?" He asked worried as he tried holding him up enough so he could answer too him or check if he got hit with anything to make the man stumble almost over but he couldn't find anything, Takemichi looked up at him spiking nother painful headache as he saw Inui with out his ears as well and in a the same black uniform as Taiju making Takemichi since and hold his head in pain.

Inui didn't know what to do as he tried making Takemichi talk to him, who tried to stop the headache and not pass out from this pain. Koko who was close to them came over as well asking what was wrong but nothing was working as they decided to retreat with Takemichi for now leaving Koko to tell Taiju who was still fighting not noticing what was happening.

"Boss" Koko called as he fought along his captain who turned to him annoyed while still fighting and letting his fun out of those poor wolf hybrids who were already done with this fight and just wanted to retreat but couldn't since their boss didn't let them just yet.

"What now!? I'm busy can't you see you little shit?" Taiju said annoyed as he glared at Koko who flared a little before taking a deep breath and quickly saying what he need to say so he could leave and follow Inui.

"Somethings wrong with Hanagaki so Inui retreated with him, he nearly passed out all of a sudden" Taiju sighed annoyed and turned cussing as he hit a man so hard that he flew back knocking out other people as the Captain finally called a quiets and yelled retreat letting Taijus clan win completely as the man glared at Koko with a hint what looked like worry.

"Show me where he is" Koko with out a second heart beat did as he was told and lead them back to the base where they found Takemichi still holding their head in pain while laying on the bed while Hakkai and Yuzuha where there but as they saw their bother they stiffened and stepped back letting him go instead, if they need too they would do there plan right now And take him out for good if he did anything to Takemichi

"What's wrong with him now?" Taiju said annoyed as he looked at the withering human that was crying with pain and grunting while holding his head tightly, Taiju was sure he was about to rip his hair out at how tightly he was holding onto his head and hair.

"We don't know he just stood there watching before he just stumbled over complaining with the headache and not taking anymore we asked him but he won't answer what is wrong, we can't get him to answer no matter what we do" Inui reported to Taiju as he saluted since this was still his boss even if he was worried himself that Taiju should do something to the weak body on the bed who was practically getting his head split open trying to get his mind under control as some memories fight with the amnesia to take control.

"What a weak human! Get yourself together" Taiju said annoyed to Takemichi as he lifted the boy up by one arm trying to make Takemichi look at him, Takemichi did look at him shocked as he was suddenly lifted up but his headache just grew stronger as he looked at Taiju seeing 2 version of him, the one with the uniform and this one, Takemichi whimpered as his head was really about o explode as his eyes teared up and he whined up in pain.

"Leave him alone Taiju! Can't you see he is in pain!!" Yuzuha yelled out trying to make her brother drop Takemichi, Taiju glared at her letting Takemichi fall into the bed like a ragdoll as he glared at her.

"Right you did bring him to me, he is mine now tell me! You must know his past right!? Tell me what's wrong with him!" Taiju demanded as Yuzuha was shaking feeling scared Hakkai was shaking as well frozen in place as he barley could even look at his brother while he prayed they wouldn't get a beating.

"We don't know!! He said he can't remember anything" Yuzuha said telling only half of the truth as she clenched her fist thinking about ending this right now, all she need to do is pull her hidden knife out that she had been caring around for months now, she just need to stab him good and that would be it! They wouldn't have to be scared anymore, she wouldn't have to worry of Hakkai getting hurt or Taiju killing the boy that grew on their hearts.

"Your useless! You don't even know his background and you call yourselves my siblings!? How pathetic" Taiju turned away in anger glaring at the boy in pain again as he snapped at Koko and inui to get a healing potion before, he then sighed annoyed at the weak body who was close to passing out from the pain, Yuzuha could t take it anymore and turned her knife up and quickly stabbed Taiju fight into the abdomen. She wasted no time taking no chances of Taiju hurting Takemichi or them.

Taiju looked shocked and annoyed as he threw Yuzuha away again the wall of the big bedroom look ing at the wound as he began laughing historically at her while Hakkai was still frozen in his spot not daring to move as he looked at the stab wound not believing they actually stabbed Taiju so easily.

"You really stabbed me you bitch! Your own brother at that!?" Taiju said laughing as he glared at her ready to give her a real good beating before Takemichi was Infront of him having his arms spread as he had little tears in his eyes from the pain still that was tormenting his head.

"Taiju don't! She is still your sister" Takemichi grunted out as he looked at Taiju with pleading eyes, the man faltered for a second which was enough for Takemichi before he suddenly snapped and swung at Takemichi knocking him to the ground with a punch right into his stomach making the boy puke up blood from the blow Takemichi immediately sank to his knees coughing and having as Hakkai watched it all in horror before snapping out of it and running to Yuzuhas side making sure she was okay and ready to fight Taiju before he protectively stood Infront of Takemichi who passed out right after coughing up the blood.

A whole mess broke out as Taiju and Hakkai were fighting while Yuzuha pulled Takemichi away from it praying the boy was okay before joining her bother to fight Taiju ending up with both of them beaten up and on the ground while Inui stood there shocked with Koko as they saw the mess that unfolded in less then 5 minutes of them being gone, Takemichi leaning against a wall unconscious with blood dripping from his mouth, Hakkai and Yuzuha sprawled out on the ground unconscious as well and Taiju breathing heavily with a stab wound and looking with regret at Takemichi who looked like he was dead but masked it with annoyance, Inui wasted no time and gave the healing potion to Takemichi who woke up with the help of the position as Inui forced him to drink it making him cough weakly as he took deep raspy breaths.

"Taiju....can't you see the wrong your doing, hitting our own siblings...to a point they plan your own death just to be free" Takemichi mumbled out weakly as Inui froze praying Taiju wouldn't kill the boy Infront of him for his words as he turned too him annoyed and full of anger.

"What the hell do you know huh! Your just a weak no body this has nothing to do with you in the first place!" Taiju yelled as he stepped closer to Takemichi and Inui was Inui wanted to protect Takemichi in any cost so he stood Infront of him protectively making Taiju even more angry.

"Look around you Taiju...is this what you wanted? Your siblings half dead on the ground....you being all alone...." Takemichi mumbled trying to reason with him as Taiju halted and looked around still in anger seeing the truth Takemichi was talking about, his siblings he raised laying on the ground covered in bruises and wounds that he made.

"Taiju....you can't possibly think this is the right thing to do, your torturing your own siblings to a point they even want you dead... It's not to late to change" Takemichi said as he looked at Taiju with his pleading look as the big man looked back at him still angry but seeing the truth as he sighs his shoulders faltering as he sighs in anger hitting the wall and cussing as a hole was created by his force.

"Fine...then fucking tell me what to do! What am I supposed to do!?" Taiju yelled as he waved his hand, gladly after that Takemichi showed him what to do, well tried to the man was stubborn really stubborn but after 3 months of staying there and helping the siblings they finally got along, well in a level where they were talking again and Taiju was trying to be kind to them, now all Takemichi wanted was to go home just as promised.

"Hakkai, Yuzuha....it's time to hold you your deal" Takemichi said as the 3 siblings sat in the kitchen forced to having to eat together from Takemichi as they looked at Takemichi confused before Hakkai looked shocked and sad, he knew this was coming but he didn't want the boy to leave he just couldn't let the man leave not after they grew so close and finally got a long!

"B-but it's okay here right! You like it here so you don't have to leave" Yuzuha said as she too didn't want Takemichi to leave this world and leave them behind, they wanted him to stay here and live with them happily, and Taiju? He had no idea what the fuck was going on and was just munching on his steak having learn patience, but that was quickly thrown away when they didn't explain so he just asked right ahead.

"So what's going on? Tell me you little shits" Takemichi looked at him sternly as Taiju just shrugged and rolled his eyes before Takemichi explained to Taiju what was happening, they told him about the missing about how Takemichi didn't belong to this world and how they promised to left him leave through the portal they had on the underground cellular

"And you didn't bother to tell me!?" Taiju asked shocked and annoyed looking at Takemichi with a new perspective knowing now that the boy was actually ready to leave them to returning to his world, to the thing he was calling home, Taiju wanted to be egoistic wanting o keep him here, but he had leaned one thing, if he did that Takemichi wouldn't be kind anymore or would even lose that innocent look he had to him.

"Fine....I will show you this evening, but you have to spend today with us got it!" Hakkai protested with Yuzuha to Taijus words not wanting Takemichi to leave even if they have brought this upon themselves by telling the boy about this deal and helping him even getting so far, so this is how Takemichi had to spend all day with those 3 siblings, he even told Inui and Koko who became clingy as well wanting his attention all day, Koko even gave him a hair pin that looked stunning it matched the color of his blue eyes and was formed as a teardrop with gold rim it fitted him well as it was placed into his hair before it was time to go, Taiju showed him the portal and Takemichi stood there with hope and full of happiness knowing he could return to his real word and find out what his past was like, he turned to the siblings one last time and of course to Inui and Koko.

"Thank you all, along our journey I might have been kidnapped 2, enslaved for a few months and been thrown around like a punching back but I did learn one thing" Takemichi said smiling as everyone flinched at his words and Taiji looked away like he didn't so anything of it all while Hakai asked softly.

"And what is that Takemichi?" Takemichi looked at him seeing the other version of him as well, Takemichi had learned one thing, these people here were part of his world as well and he knew them well, only after getting smacked like a sack of potato did he remembered how this happened as well, attacking Taiju at Christmas eve Yuzuha wanting to stab him and Takemichi helping them, and in the end getting them to get along, it was his first step of knowing that he did have a life in his real world.

"That I do have some friends that will wait for me to return" Takemichi smiled at them with little tears before waving and turning to the portal and entering it looking back one last time before disappearing into a new adventure that he will have to coger once more!

Chapter Text

Takemichi couldn't believe what was happening, he went through the portal hoping to get him home not waking up in what seems like a fucking middle of a war, like literally! How did he get here in the middle of a battle field wearing still his butler outfit from the other world and speaking gem in his hair but it seemed to not glow anymore it was now o lay a pretty blue, Takemichi was quickly snapped out of his mind as he was nearly shot and yelled at by some soldiers asking what he was even doing there and where he came from before pushing him around to get him out of the way so they could attack, so he took of running into the woods that were near by, he didn't even hesitate to look back there was no way he would look back, he just kept running like there was someone chasing him, like a killer was there calling after him. He will admit that he is a scarry cat but anyone who just gets teleported into a battle field would do the same right?

Takemichi only stopped running after he stopped hearing people scamming or guns shooting, he was completely exhausted but he didn't want to stand still risking staying here or getting attacked he just kept running, well half running with the power he had until he ended up at a some kind of camp people were looking at him weirdly as Takemichi stood there exhausted his heart slowly calming down as he just fell over as the adrenaline left him leaving him completely exhausted and in pain as the world titled and passed out. Takemichi wasn't sure how long he was passed out for or how he even ended up in a bed but when he woke up he was changed into new clothes and had bandages over his legs and one on his head, Takemichi didn't even notice getting hurt on his legs, he guessed the head injury was from him just passing out, which was embarrassing to begin with.

"So your awake huh?" A person suddenly said as Takemichi looked to the side seeing a pink haired nurse and blond haired nurse looking at him, Takemichi blinker slowly as he felt like he was high completely he also guess that it was from the painkillers he got or something really strong as he just kept looking at them having the same feeling of knowing those 2 girls sitting there. They looked at him waiting before the blond girl mumbled softly.

"You think he hit his head to hard?" She whispered clearly loud enough as Takemichi heard her clearly drowning slowly as he could barley register what she was saying her he did hear it and didn't like it as his mind was still trying to figure out where he knew these 2 girls from.

"Emma! He is still under painkillers give the guy some time before you say he is stupid" the pink haired girls said to the blond who's name was Emma, it sounded just so familiar that Takemichi couldn't help but stare at her now trying to figure it out while he was under the painkillers, helping him not feel the headache that was bound to come in.

"I know Hinata but.....Look...he is just staring at me...." Emma mumbled a hir creeped out at his gaze as Takemichi looked more or like he was crazy thinking about things he shouldn't before Takemichi began slurring out slowly.

"I'm...sorry you seem....familiar" Takemichi said as his eyes slowly began to close again feeling too relaxed of not feeling pain as both of the girls started at him before looking at each other unsure what to say to that as they let Takemichi fall back asleep while they tend to his wounds.

"See I told you he is polite after all he looked like a butler!" Hinata said as she changed the bandages to see if the bleeding had stopped which it did gladly, after all Takemichi had been unconscious for almost 3 days now, they were starting to think he was dead or either paralyzed, but their glad he isn't, so they change it quickly and leave the room walking to the other patients they had as this was a hospital for the soldiers of the war, they were confused from where Takemichi came from as everyone was evacuated from this area but all they could do was wait until Takemichi woke up again to tell them there selves. For now they simply have to report back to the general of this Camp.

Takemichi had a weird dream he couldn't place it at all as he woke up in a weird room, well he felt himself waking up at least as his eyes opened just slightly and he saw a white ceiling, he did try looking around with his eyes but before he could do that they fell back closed leaving him to wake up in this bed again, where he was alone now. He wasn't sure what that dream was or where that even was but he was sure he need to find it out. Call it a gut feeling or not he just knew he was getting closer to that what he wanted so with out waiting Takemichi got up and began walking out the tent but what was his mistake? He forgot his legs were injured so the moment he stopped onto the floor and walked he just yelped in pain and quickly sat back onto the bed looking at his bandaged feet.

Takemichi couldn't believe he forgot about his injuries...nevermind he could believe it as it just happened and this dumbass tried walking making his feet hurt and have a slight burn making him uncomfortable but gladly Hinata and Emma came back looking at him sitting where with the feet on the ground, they knew damn well what happened and both sighed as they helped him lay down again and checked on his feet.

"So are you fully awake now?" Emma asked looking at Takemichi who didn't look at them feeling too embarrassed to do so. While Emma glared at him daring him to look at her and answer properly.

"Y-yes ma'am! Thank you for saving me and helping me with my wounds" Takemichi said quickly doing a half bow as best as he could while sitting on the bed. He didn't want to seem rude to then or make them anymore angry then they are right now after having seen him walk with his injuries, well they guessed he had walked which was the truth.

"Now tell us what we're you even doing out there! We are in a world war! Everyone around here has been evacuated to safety even all the servants and butlers that were here to help the soldiers. So please enlighten us on how you managed to get here with our being seen by anyone getting close" Hinata said as Takemichi gulped loudly trying to stay calm, but that wasn't really working for him at all as he was sweating and unsure of what to say, he didn't wanna repeat the last mistake and tell people he was from another world! But what other options did he have? There was no way he could find out where the next portal is or how to even get there unless he asked the locals around this world. But he didn't want to in prison for being a witch, he was pretty sure this world did no allow magic or never knew magic to begin with like the last world.

"Well....i....uhm" Takemichi began to stuttering to Emma and Hinata he looked very suspicious, they weren't sure if he was from the enemy territory or maybe even a spy so they had to stay focused and pull everything they could out of this boy so they could make sure he wouldn't suddenly turn on them out of the blue.

"Well....I have no other choice....I'm not from here, well....not from anywhere around here....it ugh I'm not from this world" Takemichi said stuttering and trying to make it sound like this was normal or that they should know what he means but Emma and Hinata just looked at him sternly and worried thinking he might of lost his last braincells by the fall as they quickly lay him on the bed and check his head injury and all around it even ruffling his hair that had gotten a bit long.

"He must of hit his head really hard Hinata" Emma said as she couldn't find any other wound other then on his forehead where he had fell on after fainting, so they had 2 options either Takemichi was insane from the beginning or he went insane after hitting his head on the ground, but at this point they were sure it was the first option.

"I agree Emma" Hinata said nodding as she looked worried at Takemichi who looked at the shocked or horrified, he didn't want to look crazy or even insane! He was simply asking if they knew anything but it seemed he was right there was no portal....or magic to begin with..so how will he get home now? Takemichi began to tear up feeling despair of knowing he might not get home, confusing Hinata and Emma as they saw a grown, well Teenager start crying suddenly by simply looking at them.

"I'm not insane...I'm sorry just forget what I said" Takemichi mumbled as Hinata and Emma looked at each other before petting his head softly both didn't really know what else to do, they did feel pity for this boy that was now crying about something they both didn't know, all they could see was that it was true pain he was crying about.

"How about we get our general okay? He will just ask you some questions and then you might be able to leave" Emma said softly as she looked at Takemichi with pity before leaving letting Hinata comfort the crying Takemichi who couldn't stop thinking about never getting home.

Takemichi just didn't know what to do anymore he had nowhere else to go now, there was no magic in this world, there was no idea on where to go or even a simple mission to do to get the new portal, he was just hopeless and depressed knowing he might be stuck in a world full of war and fighting.

"So your the kid we found?" A ruff looking general said as he looked Takemichi, he looked old and had scars in his face probably from the battle on this ground, he had 2 metals on his uniform and was pretty tall as he glared at Takemichi who was still crying a little but stopped after seeing the man come in not wanting to embarrass himself anymore then he needed to.

"Y-yes sir...." Takemichi mumbled as he looked at him closely he was sure he must be a leader of sorts at the way he held himself, it was almost like a royal person but Takemichi couldn't really say to a 100% if it was true or not.

"I'm General Pah now Tell me, how did you get onto this battle field! And don't you dare lie, I know when a person lies to me" The general said sternly as he glared at Takemichi making sure he knew the place he was in and that living would bring him nowhere, no matter what he did. But all Takemichi could think about is that this person also seemed familiar to him like he knew him as well.

"I don't know....when I woke up I was in the middle of the battlefield, so I ran away until I came here" Takemichi said it was half of the truth, which means it doesn't count as a lie! After all he couldn't tell this man about the portals and how he is trying to get back home through portals and missions or what ever this fucked up game was that he was playing right now in the first place.

"Is that so? You confidently woke up with out any memory of how you got there on a battlefield full of soldiers fighting for our Nation?" Pah said annoyed raising an eyebrow at him as he didn't believe a word he was saying until Emma whispered to him softly, the man listened before nodding and sighing knowing yelling wouldn't get him anywhere in this participant, all they could do now is monitor Takemichi and make sure he wasn't a spy sent from the other nations.

"W-which nation are we in?" Takemichi asked hesitantly surprising all 3 people in the room, Emma gasping in shock Pah looking at him with confusion and annoyance as he didn't want to believe that this man actually had no memories to speak off, and Hinata who gave him a look of pity.

"How can you not know? We're are ofcourse in Tomania! The best Nation there is that belongs to our great king Sano!" Pah said now even more shocked and annoyed before huffing and leaving grumbling how this was a wast of time as it really seemed that Takemichi had no idea what was going on and where he was, but the moment he did a screen lid up Infront of Takemichi, Takemichi looked shocked as he tried touching it but his hand went through the screen, he looked at Emma and Hinata who didn't seem to see the screen like he did as they just looked at him and then walked also out of the tent only leaving Takemichi behind now, Takemichi looked at the screen now still confused as it showed a weird message.

Arc. 2: World quest of the strongest: win the world war against the other nation and go down as a hero!

Details: you must participate in the war and get at least 10 people to see you as their hero and win the war with out dying.

Reward: Portal.

Takemichi bursted into tears, he wasn't sure if it was from relief seeing that the reward was the portal or that he had to fight in a war were countless strong people and weapons were used to kill people and have 10 pole believe he is a hero with out dying in the process, but he guessed it was probably the second resin on why he was crying in the first place. Not only did he have to fight werewolf's in the last world but now he had to fight a whole country!? He had to win a war that was simply impossible to begin with! Takemichi had no fighting experience or even any knowledge of this world to know what to do! Takemichi already felt the head ache returning at all the thoughts that went through his head and from the constant crying as he laid back down and decided to sleep in his own misery, maybe his problems would go away if he went to sleep, maybe it was a joke and the portal would be given to him if he just believed hard enough!

There was no hope....Takemichi was woken up early around 4 am being told he had to start training since they didn't trust him and wanted him to be sent to the capital so here he was fighting for his life as he had to pull himself up a bar, the running track wasn't even the problem he was faster then the other soldiers and could hold out longer then anyone else, but the body training was killing him as he didn't have any muscles to even speak of in the first place to begin with, so this complete and utter torture for him!

But after 3 weeks of working and being slaved around on the field he was finally released and put into a not dangerous class from Pah himself, which he was glad about and today he was gladly put onto a break and given food as the other soldiers had made fun of him at first, but after seeing him still working hard even when he began crying from exhaustion, which he was embarrassed about, they started treating him nicer and even giving him tips on how to do things one even tried explaining how to no use too much stamina while swinging a sword. Takemichi wasn't sure though if he was great full or terrified of the idea of learning how to kill a person, if he did he was sure he would be send onto the battlefield immediately, he just hoped he could fulfill the first mission here and let 10 people see him as a hero, so far 1 sees him as a hero, even though Takemichi wasn't sure why?

Takemichi just sighed feeling to annoyed with his thoughts that always hurts now a days when he tried to focused on things around him as if he had seen stuff like this before, but he was sure he never was in a war before not like this at least, so when a soldier asked him to train with him he agreed to get distracted from his mind, after 3 weeks he almost knew everyone here and helped them a lot so he wouldn't be such a burden on them since he was only training with them. Takemichi helped them with cleaning preparing food or just hanging out with them playing cards that was until the base camp they were in was noticed by the other nation and was attack, Takemichi didn't know what to do as people were yelling 1 tent was on fire and Hinata and Emma were behind him looking scared as he saw Pah fighting with another partner beside him who he hasn't meet before.

"Don't worry Emma and Hina! I will protect you even if it costs my life!" Takemichi declared as he saw other soldiers around him having heard him and went to help him as well as they began laughing softly.

"You protecting them Takemichi? If you! Who is the weakest of us can say that then we have nothing to fear!" A soldier said as the others got motivated Takemichi smiled softly with little tears as he weakly fought of soldiers that were attacking them, he did build up some muscles but not enough to fighting back with full force, everything became so chaotic, he last sight oh Hinata and Emma after a soldier said he would keep watch and saw Pah still fighting looking hurt, Takemichi saw a soldier hiding behind someone and charging at Pah.

"General! Watch out!" Takemi hi yelled as he pushed him out the way and gladly avoiding the sword as they both fell too the ground but luck quickly ran out as the enemy soldiers angerly stuck his sword into Takemichis leg making Takemichi yell up before Pah killed them man

"Are you crazy! You can barley fight why did you save me!!" Pah yelled as he quickly helped Takemichi retreat for now so he wouldn't die or be in the way if fighting.

"That is a army with out their General" Takemichi said still in pain as he was grunting and hurting as he tried to hold in his tears that were already rolling down his cheek, all he wanted to do was pull the sword out of his leg and release the pain but he knew if he did that he would seal his death completely, he was in a world that was t able to heal bleeding wounds too quickly one misstep and he was done for.

Pah looked surprised and even touched before smirking and began pulling him to the hidden tent where the injured soldiers all were plus Hinata and Emma who were the nurses there, they looked surprised seeing him and a sword completely in his leg as Pah held him up so he wouldn't fall over or walk on the injured leg, Pah sat Takemichi down on a chair since he couldn't lay down as they gave him a cloth to bite down on as the other 7 soldiers in the tent that were resting or injured watched knowing this would not be pretty, especially for Takemichi since he was the weakest of them all.

Takemichi already bite down breathing heavily as he prepared himself for the absolute pain he would be in as Pah held him down so he wouldn't trash too much, another soldier who had enough strength was called over as he grabbed the sword already mumbling an apology to Takemichi before pulling it out. You could hear Takemichis scream outside the tent as the sword came out, Emma and Hinata covered their ears as they quickly looked away before starting too help his wound and keeping it clean, they cut of the blood flow too the leg with a rope as the bandaged the leg while Takemichi was exhausted and breathing heavily, letting Pah take the cloths away. Pah then went back to the battle.

The other soldiers looked at Takemichi in pity knowing he had it the worst of the once that survived as he was pale and in pure pain from the wound, he was holding back hurts as tears rolled down his cheek after 5 minutes or soy it was a surprise that he held out so long before crying but ey better then crying immediately. That's what he thought at least, but one bonus he noticed immediately was that the painkillers that Hinata gave him slowly started working as he began feeling less and less pain.

"I....might be hurt....i still have some....life in me left" Takemichi said with full confidence as the other soldiers who were being treated looked at him surprised and with admiration for his front spirit even after he got stabbed through his leg. Takemichi eyes the tent door worrying that his screaming had attracted unwanted attention from the enemy soldiers so he quickly looked at the soldiers that weren't hurt too badly, or that could at least stand up and spoke softly.

"C-could you protect...the tent...?" Takemichi mumbled as they looked surprised but nodded moving closer to the tent opening making sure they were ready as they understood what Takemichi meant and looked at him with understand before Takemichi I passed out from the pain and the painkillers that would knock him out cold completely.

Takemichi woke up what felt like only hours later but when Pah himself came and talke to him he learned that he was knocked out cold for almost 2 days thanks to the painkillers of course and to the help of Emma and Hinata. After what happened he even fulfilled half of his mission as more then 10 people saw him as a hero now since he saved several people and their General so all he had to do now is secure the win of the war....easier said then done!!! All Takemichi wanted is to lay in this make shift bed and just sleep away until the war is over! What is he supposed to do with a injured leg that he can barley walk on!! This would take months to heal! Takemichi doesn't want to stay in this world for another 4 months or what ever it took take let him heal! He just wanted to go home.

Takemichi sighed rolling back onto his back as he looked at his injured legs and then at the screen that was still there almost mocking him completely, how would he make the nation win a war....a war that was pointless to being with.....wait! It was pointless! Takemichi sat up as he finally got an idea and quickly waved Emma over asking here is she could get Pah here so he could ask him a question, Emma looked confused and worried thinking the man has finally lost it completely but just nodded and went out the tent to get the General that Takemichi wanted to speak too, it didn't even take long before he came inside and looked at Takemichi confused why the man wanted to talk to him in the first place.

"Pah can I ask you why the war is even happening?" Takemichi asked now, not hesitating or even flinching as he looked at Pah determined to fulfill either his plan or find a plan to win this war completely with our losing too much life's in the progress, well more life's since so many have been killed already or died.

Pah looked at him with confusion and mistrust as Takemichi suddenly asked him about that Information, it was completely classified as the public was told there was a threat send that would attack one city but the truth was that there was a royal invitation send for war before a peace treating could by signed like promised, but Pah couldn't say that to Takemichi not when he only knew him for like 4 months to this point, but the boy did save his life....Pah was torn between telling Takemichi as a reward for saving him or not telling him anything, but at the end Pah sighed deciding he could tell him after Emma nodded at him with a approval.0

"Why? Well 4 months ago a peace treating was supposed to be signed but then instead of the document arriving a letter came declaring war it even had an official signature on it and everything" Pah said as he didn't even mind questioning why the man wanted to know in the first place, Takemichis eyes kid up feeling something fishy was happening as he quickly grabbed a piece of paper and drew down a rough sketch of what might of happened or what was happening.

"Pah! Have you ever looked at the letters closely? Why would a kingdom who asked for peace suddenly sent a war letter! What if switches the contents of the letters and changed it so those 2 nations would attack each other!" Pah looked at him confused but also surprised seeing some logic behind it, well a little it sounded absurd but yet he couldn't get the thought out of his head that Takemichi might be right. But he chose against it, there was no way it was right!

"So you finally lost it ey? Get some rest you dumb ass" Pah said before ruffling Takemichis head and leaving Takemichi felt frustrated and stupid at the same time, his theories could be true, it could be yet what if Pah did check it and it was wrong? Maybe Takemichi was just a stupid person after all? Maybe he really was overthinking for once and was paranoid from being in this world with no hope? Takemichi slumped back losing all hope as Emma and Hinata watch him, seeing his hope vanish as if it was never there, both looked at each other before Emma nodded and ran after Pah leaving Hinata there.

"Hey...Takemichi don't lose hope, we might win this war after all, but....why did you think of that?" Hinata asked hesitantly, thinking Takemichi was losing hope because he had no solution for the nation and this war, but Takemichi was losing hope because at this point he might be really stuck there forever with a injured leg and no way of getting home.

"This war is so useless...it's pointless so why would a nation that's trying to make peace....suddenly start a war against a powerful nation that they have no chance against?" Takemichi mumbled still depressed as he mumbled on and on about his reason what could happen and what might be the reason for it while Hinata listened slowly seeing what he meant as she nodded along.

But Takemichi paid it no mind as he just stopped talking after 5 minutes and laid back looking at the ceiling of the tent having really lost all hope, he was sure there was no way of him winning this war with out dying, he couldn't even fight of 2 soldiers with out almost getting his leg cut off. Takemichi looked at the screen again that was mocking him completely with leaving the 1 quest there while the other one was glowing green showing he finished the first half. He just didn't see anything that could make this moment any better then thinking he would just wake up in his own world with all his memories.....that would be a wonderful day wouldn't it? Yet here he was depressed already giving up on life, Takemichi quickly shook his head sighing.

He's right there is no point in being depressed now! He still had a chance he just need to convince Pah to check to the letter again, and if not he will simply go to the other kingdom and convince them even if he has to stumble and limp all the way there!! He will not give it up, he can't not when he finally got a piece of his memories back from Taiju, Hakkai and Yuzuha! He need stop get home and show this stupid world that he isn't weak! Takemichi sat up determined now as Hinata looked at him confused but relieved at seeing Takemichi not defeated yet. That was until she heard the stupidest thing out of his mouth.

"Hina! Get me a wheelchair in going to the other nation!" Hinata sat there shocked at what Takemichi said as he already pulled his hurt leg of the sling groaning before sitting up fully as he waited for Hinata to get him a wheelchair.

"Please Takemichi! That's so fullish if they see you they will shoot at you with our hesitation" Hinata said trying to make Takemichi realize what he was thinking off butt he am just looked at her waiting for her to bring the wheel chair, before pulling himself just up by the chair near him.

"I don't care! It's better then sitting here and waiting to be killed by this war" the both kept arguing back and forth as Hinata tried making Takemichi sit back down while Takemichi kept saying he won't back down this time, it came to a point while a soldier who walked by asked if everything was okay, Hinata asked him for help as they both made Takemichi lay down again scrolding him for his idea.

"What is going on here!?" Pah asked annoyed and confused as he found one of his shoulders pushing down Takemichi onto a bed while Hinata was putting his injured leg back into the sling making sure he couldn't take it out again.

"Takemichi wants to wheel his way into the other nation to stop the war!" Hinata said looking at Pah with desperation to put some sense into Takemichi while Takemichi argued saying he wouldn't back down no matter what while the other solder tried making him calm down and see reason before Pah sighed having enough.

"Okay shit it! Takemichi you better stay where you are or I will chain you up and make sure you can't even piss with out anyone's help!" Pah said as Takemichi calmed down and looked afraid for a second before he pouted as he sighed knowing that he wouldn't back down but settled down for now.

"Since you showed so damn concern I already send a message to the kingdom to check the letter again to see if it was tampered with" Pah said as Takemichi looked surprised and sat up lettin the soldier next to him hold him steady as he thanked him, Takemichi saw a huge hope now to ending to war as his eyes teared up in relief as he sagged against the soldiers arm letting the Soldier lay him back down looking a tiny little pale, he looked really pale from moving around to mich and opening his leg injury again.

"Now we don't promise that your right!" Pah said seeing Takemichi relax and practically look like a corpse while Hinata went to change his Bandage again and letting the soldier give Takemichi painkillers again letting the man not feel the pain. Pah sighed as he waved his hand and pinched the bridge of his nose before Emma came back nodding as she handed him a note she wrote down from when she listened to the communication handing it to Pah who looked at it

Pah took the note already mentally praying it said something good before he had to make a report of a person with a wheelchair making their way to there enemy just to tell them off and die, that would of been the worst report he would of ever had to submit if that happened. How would he even explain that to the king!? He just prayed for the first time ever in his life that this was a good thing and that it said something good, or else he would really have to chain up Takemichi or send him personally to the king.

Pah opened the note and read it as he really did see something good and it was personally from thinking himself, who also cursing at him for letting his sister on the battle field and letting her stay there with out telling him before confirming the suspicion that the letter really was fake and was copied by someone they weren't sure off. Pah sighed a huge sigh of relief as he looked at Takemichi who was getting sleepy from the pain killers yet again as he placed the note onto Hinatas hand before leaving knowing he was awaited on in the communication center where he would have an ear full for the next 2 hours or so until his king for tired of it or was pulled away by their second hand man.

Takemichi woke up a day later as Hinata sat next to him petting his head as Takemichi had spiked a fever from moving around to much with an injury and straining his body way too much while still healing, Takemichi was grateful for Hinata as he didn't suffer to much thanks to her, she had already told him the news and Takemichi cried with little tears, that's all he could manage with his sickly body, but once she left to get Water the mission popped up again showing a completion sign with a little ding before Takemichi was suddenly teleported through the portal with out having any time to say goodbye or thank the people that helped him.

Hinata came shortly back and saw Takemichi was missing, she began panicking as she asked the soldier outside how willingly let himself be assigned there to keep watch on Takemichi, if he had seen Takemichi leave or see anyone enter the tent, he said no and asked what was wrong as she said in full panicked that Takemichi was missing. Everyone started searching around trying to find the missing boy as he could t have gone far, he had an injured leg and a fever there was no way he could of left on himself.

Pah personally sent out a search squad and asked around if anyone had seen a suspicious person near the tent but no one could find him or even find hints from where he went, all they found was the hairpin the boy had in his ear and the note that Pah had gotten from Emma with little tears or sweat on it they weren't sure, and just like that the hero of the battlefield vanished just like he had appeared. The search went on for almost 2 months even the King Sano himself searched for the boy as he wanted to thank him for protecting Lab from death and even noticing what was wrong with this war but now one found him, they asked around where he came from but no one knew that name or even who that person was, it was like he had just appeared out of nowhere just in the right time of need and then vanished into thin air after saving the whole nation, a Missing person posted was put out with a drawing of Takemichi that Hinata drew as she had remember his whole look and face since she took care of him the longest while Emma explained his voice or even his features enough for people to know, in the end he went down as the legendary Hero

a person that came in the time of need saved the nation and vanished just like he had appeared, with tears and determination the soldiers gave more descriptions correcting people after months and telling tales before his final name went down in the history books as the Crybaby hero of the battlefield. They build a statue for him on the same place where he vanished leaving it in a flower field in the forest looking stunning and new letting everyone not forget what he had done for this nation and for the general on Tomania.

Takemichi felt like absolute shit, not from the shock of getting just sucked into a portal against his will no, that was the least of his concerns, his biggest concern was right now what he got teleported into a tree getting stuck as he still had a fever and was injured in his leg, he wasn't even sure if he was finally back home or in yet another world, his vision was blurry and his head was hurting as memories enters it with Hinata, Emma and Pah not being a general and nurses but his friends in the other world, he wasn't sure why and what but his feverish mind couldn't even think about it before he heard whistling from somewhere, Takemichi slowly lifted his head the the branch he was kinda lying on.

Takemichi tried weakly getting the attention of the man walking under him as he made struggling noises making the man stop and look around but he never once looked up as Takemichi tried again tearing up and gearing he would be stuck on the tree and never one in his whole life was he happy about crying as the tears fell onto the man letting him look up with his Axt as he looked stunned for a second looking at Takemichi and Takemichi looked back at him, before he yelled up in shock quickly putting his Axt down as he tried reaching for the man to get him down.

"Wow buddy! How did you get up there huh?" The man said with a general voice as he tried reaching Takemichi but couldn't before looking around trying too see if he could get anything to get the weak body down from the tree or if he had to let the boy jump down, but it seemed if Takemichi did he would get serious hurt so there was only one thing else he could do.

"I need you to trust me okay? Just roll down and I will catch you!" The man yelled as he held his arms open, Takemichi looked at him feverishly as he blinked slowly before nodding softly gulping down his fear as he rolled of the branch falling into the man's arm as he whimpered in pain when his injured leg bounced against the man, The man comforted him before looking around trying too see if he could see anyone around that Takemichi might belong too, in the end he dedicated to take him to his house since it seemed that he wouldn't stay awake too long or survive at that matter. The man put the act on his back and then picked Takemichi bride style up before getting him too his house. There he treated Takemichi as best as he could before calling for a doctor by the phone line, it would take at least 3 hours for him to arrive but it was better then nothing.

Takemichi though felt unconscious the moment his head hit the cold pillow letting him relax, the man got a wet towel and cold it down with cold water before laying it onto Takemichis forehead to help him cool down even more, he didn't know where Takemichi came from but he didn't want to leave the man stuck on that tree, his concoins would not let him sleep that night if he did ignore them man, so just Incase he woke up he began cooking dinner since it was already getting dark, he didn't even want to think about how long the man must of been on the tree with no way of getting down or anyone around if he hadn't went out to get fire wood he would of probably never seen the boy and maybe the boy would of even died from his high fever and his wound.
After 2 hours the Doctor gladly arrive as The man opened the door and sighed a quick sigh of relief as he saw the doctor letting him inside as the doctor treated him friendly

"Hey Mitsuya how have you been youngster? And how are your sisters?" The old doctor asked as he went right over to the patient who was sleeping peacefully while Mitsuya smiled and closed the door behind the old man handing him a bowl to eat as well since he knew the Doctor skipped his dinner to come here.

"I've been doing well and my sisters went to school in the city they are being watched by a trusted friend, while I hold up the front lines here. I found this man in the woods, he was stuck in a tree" the doctor looked surprised at what Mitsuya said and also amused as he let out a little chuckle.

"On a tree? With a wound and fever like that? There is no way he got up that tree alone as his leg is completely stabbed through but it seemed someone treated it, a bit old style but I did stop this young man from bleeding out" Mitsuya nodded now being even more intrigued by the revelation of what the doctor just told him.

"Now that you say it....it is weird yeah" Mitsuya said before sighing and eating the soup he made with potatoes some carrots and his own recipe for the soup part itself, at this point he didn't want to think about which bastards left a boy like that to die on a tree or made fun of him. Well Mitsuya was far of with his theorie but no one would be able to tell him that anyway as he left the doctor feed the medicine and then treat the ugly wound on the boys leg which almost ruined Mitsuya appetite, key word almost since he simply turned away and kept slurping the soup. Really why did this always happen too him.

Takemichi once more had a really weird dream, well more like a nightmare, he never knew that a fever could even be transferred into a dream and now that Take ich tonight about it why would he know when he was dreaming? Takemichi just sighed softly very softly that he even barley heard himself as he looked around and saw a bouquet of flowers right next to his bed and a huge window that showed the night sky and talk buildings, he could barley stay awake before he fell back under again, it must of been only 2 minutes before he was snapped back waking up in a unfamiliar house with a doctor sitting next to him smiling down at him. Weren't it for Takemichis fever he would of been shocked and sat up.

"Oh see the youngster is awake! Hello young man can you tell us your name and what happened to you?" The doctor asked slowly making sure Takemichi could catch all of the things he said as Takemichi slowly nodded and began speaking in a raspy and dry voice

"T-....Takemichi" he said coughing a little as the Doctor helped him drink the glass of water while making sure he didn't choke on it our anything. Mitsuya stood behind him a bit worried for the stranger not wanting a goy dying in his bed and house.

"Okay Takemichi do you know where you are? Or let's put it like this where did you come from?" The doctor asked slowly again making sure Takemichi wasn't overwhelmed or anything that could make his health worse again.

Takemichi slowly shook his head as he thought about that question, he didn't know where he is no, he also still couldn't remember what would he came from other then it being a modern world where he had friends in and was a teenager. But he couldn't tell that the doctor, he would never unless he knew he was in a magic world where portals existed!

The doctor sighed before helping Takemichi eat the soup that had been sitting on the desk next to the bed waiting for the boy to have woken up, it was really tasty, that's what Takemichi felt like at least as he eagerly ate each bite from the spoon sighing in relive and also from not hurting too much since the medicine was even better then from the other world, this must be a more advanced world then the others.

"Mitsuya do you mind fetching me a new cloth with cold water? And the key to open the downs? We need to air the room out so we don't get sick as well" the doctor said as Mitsuya nodded and went to fetch these things after giving the Doctor the key to the window that was in the room to open

Takemichi just watched them unsure of what to make of this as he had no idea who any of them were only the name Mitsuya rung a big bell in his head but it was immediately blocked by a headache, at this point Takemichi was sure he must be yet another person he knew from his original world! So was he here to collect memories? Or was this just a coincidence? Either way he knew this time around that Mitsuya really must be a family person from his real world so will this be a easy world? Or is he already back in his real world and was only in a country side? Takemichi felt little hope as he relaxed a little and sighed breathing in the fresh air from the window that was opened by the doctor. The doctor looked at him amused as he came back around graving the new cloth that Mitsuya had brought just now with a bucket of cold water placing it onto Takemichis forehead making him feel even more clearheaded.

"So Takemichi as it? How did you end up on that tree? Your leg is badly hurt and you had a fever so there is absolutely no way you could of gotten up there yourself unless you have superpowers And can fly" the doctor asked waiting for his answer curiously, he didn't need to know yeah but he was just so curious how a injured boy got up a tree with out any help unless he really was left there in his state by someone else.

Takemichi hitched a little before speaking out in a mumble that he couldn't remember, the doctor and Mitsuya didn't buy it but didn't push it any further assuming it must of been a person after all that out Takemichi onto the tree it either was a close person like parents maybe? Or even a friend so they didnt push not wanting to upset Takemichi and make him even more sick then before so they simply just nodded accepting the answer before speaking some more.

"So Takemichi tell us about your selfie a little but no pressure okay?" Mitsuya said this time feeling pity for the man who was, what he thought, left out to die in the woods all alone, how could he not want to help him and at least cheer him up a little?

"Well I'm 16....I think at least well I'm more like sure" Takemichi said concerning the scooter a little as he checked for any head injury or even a dent that could be found on Takemichis head, worrying he had maybe memory loss from then.

"Do you have trouble remembering things?" The doctor said as Takemichi shook his head he didn't have trouble remembering things he just couldn't remember his past....well officially half of it! He remembered some parts after meeting Yuzuha, Hakkai and Taiju as welk as Pah, Hinata and Emma! So that didn't count! In Takemichis logic that didn't count.

"I can't remember my past almost....well nothing other then a few things" Takemichi said sighing as he admitted his predicament as the doctor checked and found nothing that could show signs of being hit or even having hurt his head.

"Okay anything else?" The doctor asked as Takemichi shook his head being great full that the doctor let his head finally rest back on the comfortable pillow that he now tonight about was actually not his, it must be the boys behind him who's name was Mitsuya if he remembered correctly, when he looked at he man he just couldn't explain it but he'd elt some kind of relief even admiration, Takemichi just couldn't remember why.

"No....I'm sorry for intruding, Mitsuya was it?" Takemichi said looking at the man with a an apologizing look as he felt bad for stealing the man's bed and even having to bring him to his own house and call a doctor, this was probably not cheap at all if the doctor even came for a home visit.

"No it's all good, I brought you here after all, so don't worry and just get healthy again after we can talk about some housework to pay of the little dept you own" Takemichi chuckled a little in amusement and relief before the doctor stood up handing Mitsuya some medicine and told him when too take it, but Takemichi was just trying to stay focused as he already felt his eyes closing from time to time and it seemed the doctor noticed and told Mitsuya instead before leaving with Mitsuya following him to the door and waving him goodbye before they were left alone together, welk that would of been the case if Takemichi hadn't falled asleep at some point of time between the doctor talking to Mitsuya and leaving.

Takemichi woke up the next time to Mitsuya shaking him always softly as he held something in his hand, as disoriented he was he heard nothing Mitsuya was saying and just opened his mouth the the man pushed the bottle too his mouth letting it drink down even after it tasted disgusting, he was then brought a glass off water to his mouth as he drank that as well before letting sleep take his peaceful soul again hopping to wake up maybe in his world but that hope was slowly dwindling with each world he was passing through, this was already the 3 world....and if he counted right he had already spent 1 year at most trying to get back to his real world alone spent on those 3 combined well the last 2 worlds at least.

Mitsuya sighed as he saw Takemichi drift off to sleep again with out even waiting as he decided to let the sleeping beauty sleep before waking him up again and trying to get him to eat, Mitsuya got up and went to his study where he still had no idea what to do, he wanted to do fashion make dresses for noblewoman who will probably cat fight or even mumble about gossip while wearing his design, but he just couldn't bring himself to leave this house behind and go live his dream, he still had to watch out for his sister's he promised them that they could come back anytime they wanted. But in the end what was holding him back the most was himself, he feared people would not like his designs he feared it would be publicly shamed and his sisters would get cought up in it. He sighed closing the office door again not wanting to think about it anymore as he sat down in the kitchen sketching away as he had already done all his duties for the morning while having waited for Takemichi to wake up.

He did get some good designs done as he waited before Takemichi finally woke up, he maybe got 3 to 4 done id he counted all the scattered paper on the floor of the failed sketched he did or didn't see as pretty enough to keep in his notebook. But when he heard Takemichi stir he walked over and checked on him as he held a bow of reheated up soup that was still left from the day before.

"So how are you feeling?" Mitsuya asked as he looked at Takemichi waiting for an answer while the boy tried to wake up and not move around to much because of his still injured leg that healing way faster now with the help of the doctors medicine and the weird ointment he put onto the wound, at first it burned like hell making him cry but over time it calmed down and now it was a soft tingle but it was better then the burning pain he had before so he would take it great fully.

"Better, I don't feel like I'm being high out of my mind" Takemichi mumbled in a chuckle trying to make a joke while feeling exhausted even after sleeping so long and sweating from the fever, he was sure the Fever was the reason he was so exhausted but he would have to push that thought away as he began eating the soup, this time he didn't let himself be feed by Mitsuya but rather tried himself, the key word being tried in this sentence as his hand was still shaking a little and disoriented as he kept giggling the spoon just enough to spill the soup off of the spoon, and after his 3 try he gave up letting Mitsuya feed him who was chuckling.

Takemichi was just embarrassed out of his mind as his cheeks were even more red now, feeling embarrassed of having to be feed by a person that was maybe the same age as Takemichi and having to see the man chuckling and try not to laugh too hard while he watched Takemichis reaction....it was too embarrassing for the man as he stopped eating only after some bites making Mitsuya look worried and quickly calming down seeing he was only doing harm rather then helping him.

"Okay okay I will stop now can you please at least finish this bowl" Takemichi looked at him and then at the bowl Mitsuya was still holding before nodding softly and letting Mitsuya feed him some more while they stayed silent which was uncomfortable if Takemichi was completely honest but this was better then the man laughing and trying to not laugh.

Right after Mitsuya helped Takemichi walk around the house so he could get some exercise and even fresh air as Mitsuya opened all the windows he could so the boy could breath more easily, it was really kind of him and Takemichi felt touched even as he watched Mitsuya open all the windows while he sat at the table looking at the beautiful sketches he made, he really found them impressive and beautiful, Takemichi guessed he must be a designer or wants to be one since the sketch was so well made, Takemichi then turned to Mitsuya who was changing the beds covers hesitant to ask before he spoke up.

"So Mitsuya....are you a designer?" Takemichi asked smiling and hesitant unsure if the man would even answer him as he was technically imposing into his house and even his life since Mitsuya technically couldn't throw him out the house while he was hurt and sick.

"No, just ignore the sketches" Mitsuya said as he stopped for a second from what he was doing and never turning around before he sighed and went back to changing all the covers and putting them by the door to wash later.

"May I ask why? They are really good and beautiful" Takemichi asked as he saw Mitsuya stop for a second and look surprised before shaking his head and facing away again as he occupied himself with other tasked while thinking about what to do say, it only took 5 minutes in which Takemichi was sure he had done something bad and shouldn't have asked before he spoke.

"I can't, I have to provide for my sister s and keep this house up, if I would I would have to move away and move to the city leaving our family home behind" Mitsuya answered as he put the cleaning towel down and turned to Takemichi with a sad look but he masked it with a smile as the man just shook his head and walked over taking the sketches away and into a room Takemichi wasn't sure of, He then came back out as Takemichi spoke up.

"Why...don't you just practice on me?" Takemichi asked as Mitsuya looked surprised and stopped looking at him with surprised and confusion why a stranger would do that for him, but technically Takemichi wasn't a stranger now as he was living temporarily here but they barley knew each other as Takemichi has literally only been here for some days now.

"Why would you...." Mitsuya asked but didn't finish his question as he trailed off looking at Takemichi and already imagining some designs on him but he quickly shook his head not wanting to lose himself and actually think about it, he didn't want to get his hopes up for a dream that he might really never make true or fullfil.

"Well as repayment for helping me and saving me of course!" Takemichi said beaming at Mitsuya with a bright smile as Mitsuya saw imaginary sun rays coming from the boy Infront of him who had so much potential in Mitsuyas eyes, he would be a beauty and well liked under women if were to ever wear really beautiful clothes.

"No....no it's okay! I told you I won't do it" Mitsuya said as he quickly snapped out of his fantasies and went to Takemichi helping the man back to the now clean bed and helping him lay down before waiting as the Doctor wanted to come by again to check Takemichis leg.

"Why not? Come on Mitsuya you have good potential, if you train on me you won't have to leave this house....please? At least think about it, I don't want to be a free loader" Takemichi mumbled looking sad as he really didn't want to just sit around while Mitsuya took care of him as he couldn't even pay back the man Infront of him even if he wanted too, he had no money or even the money of this world.

"I....ugh okay fine!" Mitsuya said with a slight blush on his cheeks as he looked away when Takemichi smiled at him brightly, not being able to handle the brightness that was coming out of this man who looked so happy to be used as a doll in some days to see just how pretty he could make the man Infront of him, it really seemed to Mitsuya in this second that Takemichi must be an angel sent by God to help him and he didn't believe easily in Angels or gods but Takemichi really was, in his eyes, the definition of what an angel would look like.

After that months passed, Takemichis leg got better and he healed up quickly with the help of the doctor and Mitsuya of course, Mitsuya began doing his dresses and creations he wanted on Takemichi even if it was embarrassing to stand on a pult and wear a finished dress that would fit him perfectly but if he was helping Mitsuya this way he wouldn't mind at all. Takemichi was glad though when he was told his leg healed fully, well yeah a big scar was still there but he would gladly take it instead of losing his leg or not being able to walk on that leg for ever. So right after he was told he could walk normal and do everything again he began helping clean around the house or just get the fire wood but all of this wasn't enough....

Even after 3 months of spending time with Mitsuya he never got a new mission he never got the little pop up window to show him what to do to get out of this world or even a hint on how to get out of this world and that effected him greatly as his mood sunk more and more with each day. He was sure Mitsuya noticed but in the end he didn't care as he just had to wait for anything to tell him what to do. Takemichi did infect do some research but nothing, he found absolutely nothing in this world there was no hint of any mage like the first world.

"Hey Takemichi? You okay...? You look sad lately" Mitsuya asked hesitantly as he looked at Takemichi while fitting his new idea to Takemichi it was a beautiful suit in a black and blue style, the blows was white and well fitting, the jacket to it was black and faded into a light but bright blue the pants was elegant and with a good past of shoes this outfit looked stunning.

"I....I miss my home" Takemichi finally admitted as he couldn't keep it a secret anymore as he sighed in frustration and tears came out, he tried hiding this for months now as he knew he couldn't tell Mitsuya that he wasn't from this world but he just couldn't help bursting into frustrated tears, after months and months of doing this he managed to get stuck in this world with no way out so far.

"Home....you mean you remember." Mitsuya asked hesitantly as he tried comforting the crying boy by rubbing his tears away with his thumbs while hugging the boy right after.

Takemichi nodded feeling frustrated as the tears just kept coming, he didn't want to be a crybaby like always! He didn't want to break down crying because he felt helpless and embarrass himself each time! But he just couldn't help it no matter how hard he tried the tears would keep coming and coming, he really didn't know what to do....
Mitsuya looked at him with a sad look hugging the boy closer as Takemichi didn't move and just let his head rest on Mitsuyas shoulder not wanting the boy to see his face that was completely going against him and kept crying. He didn't seem to be able to stop as he just kept crying and crying until he tired himself out after almost 10 minutes or crying, Takemichi just couldn't understand what he had done to be sent to different worlds, did he kill somebody? Did he do something to make the gods angry? Maybe he died himself and doesn't know he got recarnated?

After all he didn't even know what he looked like before, he doesn't know what he was like before so far he remembers Taiju, Yuzuha and Hakkai how he fought Taiju on Christmas eve and was able to talk it through with them after getting his ass beat badly while Yuzuha and Hakkai thanked him after months for fixing their family, he remembered Hinata who always helped him after some fights, he was t sure what fights he got into but he remembered Hinata nursing back to health sometimes with the help of Emma who was a sister of someone...he just couldn't remember what, he remembered Pah! The person he helped before his friends girlfriend was rapped and destroyed nearly whole toman and that was all he remembered but now that he was here....he just knew meeting Mitsuya meant he was another person he would remember or should remember since he always met the people he knew in his own world first, sometimes.

Mitsuya pulled back sighing as he rubbed his tired eyes as Mitsuya helped him lay down on the bed and handed him some food, Takemichi smiled weakly feeling really happy for having met Mitsuya in the first place at least he wasn't alone in this world, maybe it really wasn't so bad to just...stay here.... Takemichi quickly shook his head looking shocked as he snapped out of it and began eating still shocked on what he just thought off, he couldn't believe it! He can't give up! Not when he is already so far! He won't stop! He can't! He has to get back home to his real friends all of them! Takemichi determinedly are his food before excusing himself on a walk Mitsuya belt hin reluctantly go but seeing him so determined he sighed and let him.

Takemichi walked around taking a good deep breath while walking trying to think of a plan just anything he could do to trigger the mission or just to find a way home, he had to! He won't give up even if this world was fucking him over deeply right now! He just had to get home! Takemichi took a deep breath before walking back to Mitsuyas cossy little home and coming inside seeing Mitsuya sketch again. Takemichi smiled softly before walking over and looking over his shoulder trying to see what the boy was sketching he couldn't really see much yet as he was mid sketch but when Mitsuya noticed him he smelled his notebook close and blushes? Takemichi just shrugged it off to him being embarrassed before asking.

"Say Mitsuya? Why don't you really become a famous designer in a city!" Takemichi asked softly as he watched Mitsuya seeing his reaction as he looked sad and somehow completely okay with the idea of not doing it at all.

"I told you I promised to take care of this house....plus I want my sister's to return to this home feeling happy" Mitsuya answered as Takemichi looked at him with a sad look touching the boys shoulder before the mission finally popped up on his screen, Takemichi was so shocked and happy that his hands twitched on Mitsuyas shoulder a little making the man look up and see his excitement.

"Really Mitsuya! Do it! It would be great! Why not just send a letter to your sisters asking if you could live up to your dream and if not you could always ask somebody to take care of the house for you!" Takemichi said smiling after seeing the easy mission he got, all he had to do is make Mitsuya live up to his dream of becoming a designer.

"Why not let me take care of the house? I have no where to go anyway! And you would have the chance to live up to your dream" Takemichi said as he looked at Mitsuya waiting as the boy looked shocked at him like he was crazy and that he would never do it but Takemichi kept insisting.

"No! I couldn't do that then you would be here alone in a house that you should have to take care of!" Mitsuya said as he shook his head but Takemichi kept arguing back and Mitsuya kept refusing before Takemichi had no choice but to use the ultimate attack, he hated using it but there was no other way, he got that memoire back right after meeting Hinata. Takemichi immediately look at him with puppy eyes and a shaking lip as he let little fake tears roll down his face making Mitsuya look panicked and confused at the same time trying to wipe his tears away.

"Don't you trust me Mitsuya? I can really take care of your house! Or am I not trust worthy....I just wanted you to fullfil your dream..." Takemichi said before letting his water works make the path he need, he really hated crying and manipulating people but this time he really had no other way but to use it, is other plan would of been beging until Mitsuya really did it but who knows how long that would of taken!

Mitsuya looked at Takemichi conflicted and confused as he couldn't understand why it was so a big deal but also why Takemichi insisted to make him a great Designer.... On the first side he really wouldn't mind leaving this place....he really wanted to make his sister's proud and fullfil his dream to become a designer and with Takemichi also rooting for him he could feel like nothing would stop him but on the other hand he felt bad because in the end he would leave the promise he mad behind leaving it with Takemichi who said he really would take care of this house. Mitsuya just didn't know what to do but seeing Takemichis tears and determination in his eyes he cracked a little smile and agreed weakly as the Boy immediately stopped crying and hugged Mitsuya

"You played me didn't you...." Mitsuya said seeing only now trough his scenes, he couldn't believe he actually fell for this act of cuteness and adorableness, but at least he was the only one to see this so he would make an exception.

"I did, but you don't mind do you? Do you?" Takemichi asked hesitantly and with a cute face again as Mitsuya looked away already feeling his cheeks go red as he waved and just hummed.

After that Takemichi helped Mitsuya pack for 2 days, he made sure he had all he need and Mitsuya checked as well still feeling reluctant to leave but seeing Takemichi so eager to help him he couldn't back out now and after just 2 days it was time to go on his journey, he made sure to explain everything Takemichi need to do and where the supermarket was around here as it was a small hike down to the village he also left the phone number of the doctor so he would have at least that Incase something happened. Then they went down the little path to the village with all the luggage and met at the villages end

"I promise to write a letter each day on how I'm doing. So if anything is wrong just write me back, maybe I will be able to even call you per phone from the big city? Who knows and....Thank you Takemichi. Thank you for making my dream become almost true" Mitsuya said as he hugged the boy close, Takemichi looked flustered but smiled hugging him back before waving as he saw the 2 people of the village that would help him travel with the carriage.

"I will hold you to that promise!" Takemichi I said smiling before waving at Mitsuya as the carrige went away, Takemichi just smiled brightly and kept waving until he couldn't see him anymore after he met a lot of people who were curious who he was and when he came here, he was glad to answer because that day he made a lot of friend met new people and helped the elders in the town who fought him actually a lot, he even met 2 strong men who even helped him cut the fire wood and bring it up the house, he thanks them greatly and saved them good bye now Takemichi was on his own.

Takemichi explored the now empty office as he decided to at least leave a goodbye present behind this time before he would simply be sucked by a portal again, he still felt bad for just leaving not being able to say thank you to Pah Hinata and Emma but this time he would not make that mistake so he looked at the now empty office and began cleaning as there were now empty shelf's a desk and a dresser there, he didn't know what to do yet but he wanted to make something beautiful for Mitsuya and his sisters, something that would make them feel happy once they returned. He even got a Job in a nice farm around the village they let him join and get food in return to live comfortably since he didn't have anymore, they gladly took him in after the nice granny explained to them that Takemichi didn't remember anything and had no clue about money or anything, you could call it pity points but at this moment he didn't care.

Over the next 2 weeks he kept in touch with Mitsuya they even once spoke over the phone as Mitsuya informed him that he was only 3 days away from the big city and had already made good customers along the way who liked his work, he was slowly working himself up and Takemichi was proud of him, he even told him that he managed to send his sisters a letter that he would be staying with them and the friend he mentioned. Takemichi also told Mitsuya that everything was fine and that the people in the village were really nice and even helped him live nice and comfortably and that he even found a job. Mitsuya was proud of him and promised to return with his sisters once he had everything under control so he could meet them, Takemichi smiled bitterly knowing that wouldn't happen but he felt happy even if he knew that future wouldn't happen.

Takemichi just decorated the office with beautiful plants he grew himself and made it look like a cozy room with plants and books, the books he got from travelers who passed trough here he collected them all since he found it fascinating some villagers even have him books after they heard he was collecting them, Takemichi didn't want to accept them but in the end the Villagers just send some kids who just dropped them off on the door with a note saying they wouldn't take the books back so he had no choice but to put them to the collecting, as of right now he had over 300 books who were a mix of fairytale books romance books and his personal favorites were the mystery books where he had to find out what was happening, he just found the thrilling and exciting and with that the office was now full of books and plants by the window, on the desk was a diary he began writing, writing everything down he did and what made him happy to show Mitsuya once he left that live here was great and then some days later he wrote the letter, from what Mitsuyas phone call said he had a big business opportunity that would decide if he would make it or not, in that phone call Mitsuya promised to return once he made it and Takemichi could only sound happy but not excited since he knew the portal would take him once he made the deal.

Takemichi just smiled as he worte the letter letting his thoughts runn into the paper while looking out the office window with the beautiful view into the village the sun was just coming up as it was raising over the mountain in the distance making the office light up beautiful before he sealed the letter and worte Mitsuyas Name on it and laid a photo of Takemichi with kids on it, a elder lady took the photo of him while he helped the kids play around. That day Takemichi Spend his last work day knowing it would be his last work day, he handed the pay check back and thanked the farmers family with a bright smile hugging them as they looked confused and concerned but Takemichi just told them Mitsuya was coming back and he wouldn't need to work, the took the lie and smiled at him waving goodbye as Takemichi said his goodbyes one last time.

after he went to the town Elders helping them as he thanked each and everyone of them for helping him around here everyone if them knew something was up but Takemichi brushed them off as well saying he was just happy for there help and that Mitsuya was coming back they also took the half truth and smiled at him before letting him leave then the rest of the day he spend with the children of the village helping them and playing around he fought them new things and told them that id they ever wanted to read to just go up to the house even if he wasn't there and that they could always read the books but to be careful to not tear them or make the house messy, the circled nodded and smiled brightly and excited as some of them left to do just that while Takemichi smiled at them and helped the rest that didn't want to go to go back home as it was already past 3 pm.

Takemichi looked at the sun as he sat on the bench by the beautiful grass field he was a bit sad to leave this behind but he knew that after this he would be able to finally go home and meet the real Mitsuya and his other friends, in the end this world will live on in his memories, he will not forget the food time he had here, he will make sure to never lose his memories ever again just like he did before landing in the 1 world, Takemichi was then pulled out of his thoughts as the chief of the village, an old lady sat down she knew Mitsuya really well and was the first to help him around here, he had looked for her but was told she had business to attend so he left hef alone.

"Your leaving aren't you youngster?" Takemichi looked at her surprised as he didn't expect her to know he was leaving Takemichi quickly shook his head trying to refuse but the granny looked at him angerly making Takemichi shut up.

"Don't lie to me, I can tell you leaving! I don't know why your leaving and it is probably my business....at least come visit us or tell our dear boy Mitsuya" Takemichi lowered his head softly as he looked back into the grass field where the sun was setting beautiful.

"I will never come back....it's not like I don't want to but I'm sure I will never be able too" the old lady looked at him unsure what to make of it and Takemichi wasn't even sure what that face was supposed to mean before the lady pushed herself up with her Cain sighing.

"So you will be going far away and not return? I did see this coming after all you appeared in this village like nothing so it was clear you would leave one day to find your path" She said with a soft smile as she petted his head like she would with the children in the village.

"And you really can't tell this old girl where?" Takemichi looked up at here seeing her comfortable smile and warming hand as he teared up a little knowing he was leaving all of this behind.

"Would you believe me if I told you I was traveling to another world?" Takemichi asked softly as she looked at him a bit shocked before returning the smile and chuckled in a raspy way before sitting back down on the bench wanting to listen.

"Now why wouldn't I when you look at me with the truth in your eyes?" She said giggling as she placed a confronting hand on his shoulder both now looking out at the view before she spoke softly again. "As I young girl I once saw a fairy after I got lost in the forest, she helped me back but to this day no one believes me, so let me ask you would you believe me?" Takemichi looked at her after her words.

,"I would, after all I have already seen some in the last world, but I think if I wasn't traveling words I would still believe you after all, who wouldn't want to believe that these things exist?" Takemi I said with a soft smile as the old lady looked at him surprised before smiling with little tears in her eyes making Takemichi surprising and flustered as he tried to apologize.

"Your right, I will believe you youngster, so....you will go to your own world? When?" She now asked as Takemichi got up stretching as his back was sore from sitting on the bench for a while as the sun had already almost fully set.

"In 2 days, please keep this a secret yes granny? Just tell him I left to find my home..." She looked at him with a sad look as Takemichi turned too her handing a broch he had gotten, it was made for him by a villager

"Could you give him that? I don't want the kids taking it from the office" She looked at it before nodding watching as Takemichi walked away to the house to prepare for the portal that would take him

Takemichi came to the house sending the last kids home that were still there reading as they whined so Takemichi let them take the books they were reading home waving as they happily walked home, Take much I looked around the house that became his second home as he couldn't believe he was leaving already, he quickly cleaned the house one last time and made everything look comfy and cute the night was spend decorating the present he would leave for Mitsuya and his lieblings and the last morning was spend with the village chief as they sat on the bench again watching the horizon and the beautiful grass.

"I think it will be any second now" Takemichi said as the granny looked at him with a smile and a sad look as well as she petted his head seeing he had no bags as they began chatting for what Takemichi though might be the last time.

"But you don't have any bags? How will you leave if you have no bags youngster" she asked amused as she looked at him While Takemichi smiled as let her let his head and black hair that had grown out even more, Takemichi had put it into a pony tail and had his bangs relax since they were curly he didn't have to do much but push them around a little. The mission window popped up as it showed mission completed as he saw a countdown this time as portal appeared on the grass fiel not to far from them, dang if he had know it was different this time he would of talked more.

"My ride is here Granny, magic is really even if people don't believe it, what you saw must of been a kind fairy who made sure to return you home safely" Takemichi said as he stood up seeing the granny shocked looking at the portal and tearing up at his words as she smiled seeing that magic maybe really was real in his words as she watched Takemichi wave and leave trough the portal with a wave before the portal vanished, not noticing the child behind the tree a bit far away having seen everything.

Mitsuya returned to the village 2 weeks later seeing the familiar town and people that greeted him with a smile and hugs children ran to him talking about how Takemichi had let them read books and let him learn new things, Mitsuya was relieved as he hadn't got a hold of Takemichi in those 2 weeks fearing the boy would be sick, Mitsuya made his way to his house the granny joined him to his surprise.

"Mitsuya....you should prepare yourself" she said as they reached his house, Mitsuya looked confused at her feeling a hit on edge at her words as he looked at the house opening the door as he saw a clean house but so far there was no Takemichi.

"What do you mean...? Where is Takemichi granny?" Mitsuya asked as the granny walked last him and too the office huffing as she was not the youngest anymore and was already feeling the strain of walking all the way here, Mitsuya followed her seeing his office transformed into a cute library and plants making it look so cozy, he was too fascinated to realize that Takemichi was till no where before Granny handed him a envelope and a gift box as well as the borch Takemichi had gave here.

Mitsuya began reading the letter in confusion as the letter was full of Takemichi apologizing and telling him he would be leaving to go home, to the home he wanted to go and that he feared he would be gone before Mitsuya would come back, he talked about how thank full he was for him and that he was proud that Mitsuya has finally fulfilled his dream. Mitsuya had tears as a wobbly smile on his face trying too look though as the realization that Takemichi had left was big, the granny comforted him as he cried and looked at the present that was in the box, it was a self made doll that looked like Takemichi with a note saying that the local sewer made it.

"My boy, you should be happy he is going home, right where he belongs, I just admit I was shocked when he left....say do you believe in magic?" She asked as Mitsuya looked at her confused on what his had to do with anything as he shook his head not believing there was any magic in this world but he stopped as he though about how he found Takemichi the day he was planing to quit completely on his dream and ho the boy made him finally fullfil his dream.

"The boy self was full of magic and wonders, I watched him leave with a bright smile knowing you made your dream come true while he would have to fullfil his dream to go home" Mitsuya was unsure on what she meant as she just left after saying no more, Mitsuya didn't know what to do before a child came into the room, he was told they would come here to read so he quickly masked his sadness and smiled.

"Mitsuya-kun...I saw what happened! Granny isn't lying!" The kid said as Mitsuya looked at him confused letting the boy sit down next to him on the sofa that was in the office now as the child dint waste a second after he asked his question.

"What happened the day he left?" Mitsuya asked hesitantly not sure if he wanted to know how the boy left but in the end he ended to know for the pice of his mind how he left.

"It was so cool! Takemichi just stood up said something to granny! And then a cool portal appeared like in those Fantasies books! It looked cool and Takemichi looked at it and saved walking through it as it immediately closed!" The kid said looking amazed as he made hand gestures while explaining, Mitsuya was unsure if he should believe it or not but the child just insisted that he wasn't lying in the end he just let the child go knowing that it might just be lying.

Over the next months Mitsuya accepted what happens but never got over Takemichi he never got to thank the boy himself or tell him how he really felt...he will never see the beautiful smile again except on the picture that was taken....right after he began painting making paintings of Takemichi too remember him, hd opened his store in the village not wanting to leave anymore as he made phone calls to make it happen and not long years later the village grew to a small city with people coming here to meet Mitsuya and get clothes tailored all they saw when they came into the shop was a big painting of Takemichi smiling brightly in a field with a beautiful outfit that fitted like a model it was a cute T-shirt with dungarees and a cute straw hat. Mitsuya made sure to let everyone know who made his dream come true. It was the last outfit Takemichi was seen with before he vanished and left only a straw head behind with a present and a letter.

Chapter Text

Takemichi looked around as he stumbled out the portal holding his head, all the memories he had of Mitsuya got transferred again to the things he should remember but it was so painful, there were so many blanks it was hurting his head, he could remember meeting Mitsuya through someone but that person was completely blacked out, he remembered how they fought together side by side to do something but it was a huge black, he remembered Mitsuya being someone he looked up to and he was wearing blacked out clothes. Everything at this memories just blurred him more then before but through this Takemichi concluded what he had been thinking this whole time, that the world's were a way for him to regain his memories before getting back home and just letting his eyes do a quick around he was sure he was in another world except home, he was just so tired of this so he sat down against a tree as he once again got teleported to the woods.

Takemichi was just so tired of this, traveling around trying to figure out what to do and what to make of the world.....just how much longer must he endure this....was it really worth it? Was it worth it returning at this point? In his time he had counted already over a year that he had been traveling from worlds to worlds, it was just depressing and not even worth it.... Takemichi sighed his eyes slowly fading to a darker blue color as he didn't want to keep going anymore that was until he heard a sound and snapped out of his mind and turned around seeing a villager standing there looking at it confused and scared before he ran away scared, Takemichi looked confused trying to stop him and ask for directions but he was faster as he yelled something about an enemy?

Takemichi sighed rubbing his head as the headache was still there before sighing and walking the same way the villager had just ran but he took his time knowing from experience that if he followed him he would either be really called a enemy of what ever? Or called a stalker for following him and yelling to stop so he took his sweet time looking around and following the road signs he found gladly he could read them, he seems to be in a world that knew Japanese so that's was a good thing. He saw 2 names of some kind of village he figured that both of them were hell so he just played a game in his head and then walked right as the saying goes the right path is always on your Right.So Takemichi walked and walked looking around as he saw all kinds of animals walking around looking beautiful just by looking at the deer with flowers growing on it he could tell this was another magic world so this should be easy as well no? It couldn't be hard finding a portal this time with magic being in this world, maybe the mission won't be to bad if there isn't a portal! Maybe he really was lucky this time!
...
....

.......

Yeah there was no way he was luck, the last world with magic he had to fight a wolf human then he had to participate in a war almost and almost lost his leg and then he spend months in a village trying to make Mitsuya a designer which was a easy quest but the other ones before were just a way to make him fuck himself with how bad they were now Takemichi didn't want to curse! It was bad after all but after over a year of traveling? He didn't give 2 flying fucks, he looks around his pockets and even his backpack and what? He couldn't find any fucks to give so he kept going.But jokes beside.
Takemichi finally reached the village just when the sun was going down, he tried asking people where he is but they just looked at him confused and with a weird look that he only could describe like they didn't trust him at all or even want him there. Everyone looked at him like that until an elderly lady finally spoke to him after Takemichi helped her.

"Youngster what are you doing here anyway? Haven't you heard of the permit?" She said as Takemichi helped her sit down on a bench while people watched him as if he would attack the women any second for some reason.

"No? I'm sorry but I don't really have any memories and was living deep in the woods" Takemichi said telling her a straight lie so he wouldn't look like a insane person if he told here he wasn't from this world, he gave up long ago telling people, well except the old lady in the last world but he knew she wouldn't tell anyone!.

"Oh poor thing, there is a permit out that no one can travel around right now because of the new monsters" the elderly lady said as she looked at him with a pity look as she handed him a candy and Takemichi looked at it before taking it with a thanks and eating it as the sweetness melted in his mouth but what Takemichi noticed was people watching him with a waiting breath. Takemichi looked around confused and he chewed the little sweet slowly watching the people that started at him and after 2 minutes or so the all suddenly sighed in relief and began doing there thing while the old lady smiled at him.

"Good your clean! Now sorry young man everyone had been on edge since there are these shape shifting monsters out there, this candy immediately lets them release there magic and make them return to normal so I'm glad your a really human" she said as she letter him with Takemichi chocked on his candy coughing as he couldn't believe what he just heard, no wonder the person in the woods looked so scared of him and Takemichi!?! He just scrolled through the woods like it was nothing! Dang his stupidity! Well in his defense how would he have known? But still he should of run as well the moment the person ran!

"W-what....monsters!?!" Takemichi asked shocked after he swallowed the little candy letting the old lady slap his back so he wouldn't choke anymore then he already did after that shock of hearing what she had just told him.

"Oh so you really don't know? Concerning fight? They appeared suddenly mimicking humans and trying to take there place, it's scary so each time a person comes we give them the candy, if they are a mimick they die to the candy, sometimes....." The edler revealed as she looked sad and concerned before shaking her head and petting his head comforting him, Takemichi did appreciate her doing that as he relaxed a little, nothing he couldn't survive! Right...?

After that Takemichi spend some time I the village and talked to people a little who did tell him what was going on and all and then after some days which were 3 days he finally popped the quest but formed it as a Fakt he had learned from someone to make sure he wouldn't be looked at with crazy throughs to put it simple he didn't want to look insane. So here he was at a tavern for adventures as he had been invited here by the nice lady at the counter who let him stay in the guestroom upstairs

"Say, I have heard from someone that a portal exists in this world, is that true?" Takemichi asked hesitantly as he looked at the girl who looked at him with a confused look for now before Takemichi quickly added "since I can't remember anything I though I might ask you since I can't really believe it" Takemichi said making the girl look with putty at him before putting the wine glass down she had been cleaning.

"I completely forgot about that, there is one portal it's in the capital, it's owned to the Toman kingdom the one who protects it right now is the 2 in command the Haruchiyo family, it's a really well known family as the whole family is full of power houses!" Takemichi looked amazed at the words he can't believe a whole family was strong enough to be called like that but he was also scared that means he would have to go through them to get to the portal.

"Say who even told you about it? It's not really too well known as I only know it because of the travelers passing by" The girl asked as Takemichi shrugged and played it cool as he was panicking inside he just hopped his face wasn't showing it as he answered a bit too quickly.

"From a man I meet on the way here to I was just interested if it really was true, such things really fascinated me" Takemichi said before the girl just nodded and giggled before the bar became crowded as guest came in he talked a little with the adventures who seems to like him and told him he was pleasant to look at? Takemichi wasn't sure if that was a compliment or a dig at how he looked more feminine who his hair up in a short ponytail and his bangs curling around his face making him look cute with those big blue eyes.

"Ah you wanna know a story? Hahaha I give you the best we have! It's actual a prophecy of the future of our kingdom!" A man said as he sling an arm around Takemichi who looked a bit uncomfortable but just took it as the adventure group around him began talking.

"Yeah! That stupid prophecy? I don't think it's true!" The girl at the table said while she drank the beer while the other girl who seemed to be a mage sighed rolling here eyes as she nibbled from here drink a little.

"It's true everyone saw the scroll anyway let me tell you the story. This kingdom was made many years ago by 2 set of angels on angel created the kingdom of Toman and the other created the Kingdom of Halo, they created it with love and care telling the people to grow and flow they told us to be free and explore the world if we like but to never break the rule, the rule was simple don't betray each other, once that happens a disaster may befall this world until there is nothing left, shall the hero of heaven call upon you and save you all once you are ready to forgive. The end of the story is that once one kingdom notices it's mistake tries making up for there mistake a hero will appear and save the kingdom from the said disaster while the other kingdom who doesn't forgive may perish along the way" the Mage explained, all the details were confusing and all over the place he was sure it was because the mage ass already tipsy and slurring her words so the man who had his arm over his shoulder laughed before saying.

"Go keep it short the 2 kingdoms recently had a fall out and suddenly those monsters appeared along the way just like the prophecy had told us, now only the hero of the said prophecy can save us, but I don't believe in it!" The man said laughing as they kept chatting and Takemichi excused himself not wanting to impose anymore and he did want to know more but he was sure he wouldn't find anything at all so he returned to the gold at the bar who wasn't busy at the moment.

"Do you think I will find someone who will travel with me to the capital?" Takemichi asked her as she looked surprised and shocked both of them no noticing the clothed up person sitting a few stools away watching them closely and listing

"Why would you want to do that? It's way to dangerous out there!" She said as she looked at him worried but Takemichi shook his head and just pouted he need to get to the Kapital if he wanted to get home! It seemed all the had to do is get there and find the family and hope they will let him go to the portal, if not he will simply apply as a guard work his way up and enter that way but not before he will try breaking into the said house or what ever it was.

"I just.....want to go home" Takemichi admitted as it was the truth, he wanted to go home, to his really friend he has been learning about it's even a surprise that he has friends in the first place because at how he sees it, he is just a crybaby who can't even fight even after being trained in the last worlds!

The girl at the bar looked at him with a sad expression as she placed the wine glass down and looked at him with pity before sighing and pushing a map to him that showed the whole kingdom and even the second kingdom on it. Takemichi looked at it surprised studying it as he sees all kind of weird ways on the map with also weird names, who calles a road that goes through a forest the water way? Okay maybe it's floated let's give the person that point but there is clearly no water even on the map that would be close enough to make it be called that way, Takemichi just sighed and took the map with a bright smile thanking her deeply as he looked at the map once more seeing to where he need to go would probably take 1 month of travel of he is fast enough! Or doesn't get lost or attacked.....

"Now there is not one traveler who will take you all the way to the capital it's too dangerous, so that will be a really tough one plus it will not be cheap and as it seems you don't even have any money or job to get money" The girl said trying to change Takemichis mind not wanting to see him go and not know if he would survive or not but Takemichi didn't budge and just looked determined as he nodded and waved leaving the bar for now to get some fresh air, Takemichi took a deep breath as he walked down the villages street, he wasn't sure where he was going but once he saw the lake he knew he wanted to go there and just enjoy the scenery and get his thoughts together. All while he was being watched.

This person had been traveling for months now right after the news arrived that the said hero who would save them appeared, it was a magic tablet that showed a countdown to once the hero would appear it was an ancient relict that only the king himself could look at but since the king was a bit....stupid and didn't care about these things he showed it too him and he immediately decided to take the over and travel around the map trying to find this hero, for that he got a little stone it will light up once the hero was near or even next to him and fight now it was glowing it hadn't flown all these months, meaning that the person sitting at the lake was the hero or the hero was around here in this god forsaken village and if that's true then it wouldn't be even hard to find him as no one really leaves this village because of the permit, which was the kings order to make it easier to track him down but it was quickly realized that not everyone was following that rule so the allowed the adventures guild to keep going, after all it was hard to figure out that way who could be the hero as well! They did get a description of what he would look like but it wasn't easy since almost everyone had these features, the hero had black hair and blue eyes with a body that was weak and strong at the same time, this person still couldn't figure out what that meant but in the end he didn't care.

The figure stepped out and got closer to Takemichi as the stone lid up more and more, that was the thing he had been searching for for almost 6 months now, the hero that this world need yet he was all petite and looked more cute then like a hero that could kill these monsters, he couldn't believe this was supposed to be the person that saved them so he started to investigate him, if he had to bring him back to the capital then he would at least investigate him on the way there.

Takemichi turned around as a man suddenly spoke up to him, he had a cloak on so Takemichi couldn't see his face at all which made this even scarier but what surprised him the most was that the man just waited and didn't say a word for some minutes, he just stood there as if he was shocked or confused but that went quickly away as he suddenly pulled his cloak off and revealed beautiful white hair tied up in a pony tail, the man had a mask on his face covering his nose and mouth it was almost like Kakashi you know the ninja out of Naruto, Takemichi had only seen the Anime because of Chifuyu who kept making him read mangas and watch anime. The man had stunning blue eyes not like his they were more like an ice color then a bright blue like his.

"You there, you wanted to go to the capital no?" The man asked as he looked at Takemichi with a glare as if this was the biggest problem of all time for this man, so Takemichi didn't answer for some minutes and just stared at the man before nodding hesitantly, the man looked even more annoyed as the boy only nodded at him but sighed as he turned around and waved his hand.

"Come along I will take you there" Takemichi looked surprised at the man's words and just sat there looking surprised the man didn't stop walking though as Takemichi quickly got up and ran after him catching up with the man and still looking surprised and shocked.

"You will take me there? Like right now?" Takemichi asked confused as he looked back at the village that was already a bit of a distance away before looking at the man again who just huffed and nodded not saying anything else, Takemichi stopped thinking about what he was just doing and didn't go after the man, the man stopped and glared at him.

"What are you doing? Come on let's go!" The man said huffing as he looked at the boy and waited for him to follow into his step again so they could leave as soon as possible but Takemichi shook his head turning around and walking back to the village as the man huffed annoyed holding his forehead as he held back his anger before following the boy, he had no other choice but to follow him.

"I haven't said goodbye yet to the girl plus stranger danger! I don't even know who you are what if you sell me off or kidnap me" Takemichi said huffing as he kept his distance to the man that was flooding him, Takemichi walked all the way back to the bar going inside and talking to the girl wich the man couldn't hear before the girl looked at him and back at Takemichi before nodding after the man made a gesture to not tell him anything.

Takemichi followed after the man afterwards, he was told this was the best person that could protect me and take me to where I need to go so he trusted the girls words and took of with the man, Takemichi studied his back as he watched after him unsure of what to make of this, it wasn't all day that you meet a person that suddenly helps you get to the capital, after all he just met him like 2 hours ago but what would he do about it? Nothing at all because this man was his ticket to getting home! And if he had to suck up to him to get there then he will, but that didn't work at all, they camped together yeah but talked? nothing they were comparing right now with a fire and it was dead silent as the man was leaning on his sword ready to strike if anything attacked them.

"So sir....what's you name?" Takemichi asked hesitantly as the man looked at him annoyed as if this question was the worst thing in the whole words so Takemichi gulped and just lowered his head not wanting to look at the man anymore since he just felt either like a burden each time he looked at him or like a failure. But the man never answered but after 10 minutes or so with out an answered he sighed and spoke up.

"Just call me Sanzu, and what's your damn name?" Sanzu asked as Takemichi looked at him amazed he felt like he knew that name before or at least he found it incredible pretty, Sanzu was a cool name to him so he smiled

"I'm Takemichi" Takemichi said while smiling at Sanzu who looked at him perplexed and confused before rolling his eyes and going back to keeping watch while Takemichi looked at the fire keeping himself warm.

"You know what I have noticed? Not one monster attacked us on our way here even though this is the worst area in the whole kingdom" Sanzu mumbled as he looks at Takemichi as if he had done anything to make this happen or of he was even the reason behind it but Takemichi just shrugged confused

"I don't know why? I haven't even seen any monsters yet" Takemichi said as he shrugged but feeling a bit scared not sure of the man would believe him or not, he didn't really look nice with all the glaring he did all the time, Takemichi was sure he would get wrinkles if he kept this up or his brows would get stuck in that place.

Sanzu glared at him the whole time before Takemichi sighed and grabbed the bag Sanzu had been caring around, he had laid it next to him telling him to eat so he wouldn't collapse on the way and make troubles for Sanzu, in other words he didn't want to carry the boy if he was about to starve or on exhaustion. Takemichi looked at Sanzu before he sighed and began eating the bread that was inside in small bites, he hesitantly glanced at Sanzu before covering him some food looking a bit uncomfortable but he didn't want to man that was protecting him and helping him get to the capital fo starve asl well but Sanzu just ignored him so Takemichi pulled back defeated as his mood soured even more as it seems this would be a really uncomfortable situation so he put his own bread away not feeling up to it anymore as he sighed already feeling the cold from the night even with the fire as she shivered a little from the wind, Sanzu stared at him before sighing already feeling like a caretaker more then an guard that was protecting this hero, he took his jacket off and threw it at Takemichi who cought it in surprised looking at it as it was almost 2 his size, he looked up at Sanzu confused the boy just rolled his eyes pointing to the blanket that was laid out to let him sleep.

Takemichi looked embarrassed but nodding softly and working the Jacket around him and laying down on the bed it didn't even take long for him to fall asleep as he had been exhausted from the constant feeling of being on edge from his guard and having to walk around all day with out stopping once, so the moment he felt comfortable enough he snoozed away feeling warm and in some kind of way save cuddling into the jacket.

Sanzu stared at him before grabbing the bread that had been offered before out of the bag and pulling his mask down eating it as he watched the hero sleep in his jacket, he didn't know why but he felt a tiny bit pleased that the boy had listened to him and did what he said after all he had watched this man struggle all day to follow him which wasn't to hard in Sanzus eyes but it seemed to have been hard on this boy right there as he was knocked out cold the moment he laid down. Sanzu finished the bread and pulled his mask back up making sure it sit securely before He sighed looking around as he set up monsters trap and a small barrier with a crystal around the sleeping area as he himself laid down on the blanket letting his eyes rest not trusting this man to keep his hands to himself. He checked once more on the fire just Incase making sure nothing could go wrong before closing his eyes fully now

Takemichi had this weird dream, that dream of waking up in that room again, he almost had completely forgot about it since he spent so much time in Mitsuyas world, it seems he got this dream each time he went to a new world but this time he could move his head slightly as he tried looking around more, Takemichi blinker trying to focused on the thing he was seeing in the room and finally focused seeing a heard monitor or was beeping and showing a slow heartbeat Takemichi was sure it was his but he couldn't really move to check for sure as for now he could only move his head, Takemichi moved his head back looking at the other side and seeing a window with the high buildings again that he knew were his home, but was cought his eyes attention was the little teddy bear sitting on the nightstand kt looked familiar but he couldn't place it, Takemichi tried to reach for it or at least speak in his dream but he couldn't it didn't take long before his eyes closed again and he woke up with a gasp

Takemichi was sure this must be his memories before he got to this world, maybe he had died in that hospital? Or maybe he was just teleported here? Either way Takemichi hopped it was only the teleportation theory.....what would he do if he really was dead and was send here because he died? What if he never could go back home again, if this was really his new home? Takemichi tested up a little feeling completely hopeless again and mentally exhausted he couldn't keep this up this constant not knowing what he was like or of he could go home....he wasn't even sure if he really wanted to keep this up and keep moving, maybe he wouldn't even make it past this world after all the portal was heavily guarded and no one even seems to know where it is but except that it was guarded by the 2 in command family.....

Sanzu looked at Takemichi having watched the boy wake up with a gasp, he figured it was either a nightmare or something else but what surprised him was that look, that awful look of giving up and not wanting to keep going, it was the same look his king had when he had lost his brother.....it was a ugly look the look of someone giving up all hope and determination he could practically see the boys determination leak out as he was thinking about something and testing up. Sanzu wasn't even sure why he stepped in but he knew if he didn't it wouldn't go well.

"Hey little shit get up so we can keep moving" Sanzu said snapping Takemichi out of his head as he blinked and looked at Sanzu just nodding as he stood up and tried pulling the jacket off that had been buttoned closed, he wasn't sure what happened but it was closed now but Sanzu stopped him just waving it off as he picked up the blanket and putting it back into his bag.

"Keep it on it's raining soon and it's cold so keep it on" Sanzu said before walking past him and making his way again, Sanzu had to go to the next village after all since he need to send a message to his king to at least let him know he found the Hero but it was a big detour since they would add 4 extra days of travel to their plan but there was no use it was his duty after all. So after 2 days of traveling they got to the small village that was in a forest, it was called the village of flowers as there were flowers everywhere Almost every flower grows here in this region, it was a beautiful thing as Takemichis eyes kid up as he looked at the flowers.

"Sanzu....while you do that can I look at the flowers" Takemichi asked slowly knowing the man might say no since they had a tight scheduled and he didn't really let Takemichi do anything so far but as he already gave up Sanzu sighed and nodded waving him off as Takemichi looked shocked and smiled softly before he walked over to the flowers looking around with a smile as he saw all kinds of flowers until he saw a special flower....he knew that flower, Yuzuha had once shown it to him or that's what his memories told him, it was called a spider Lily it was a flower from his home, Takemichi lid up even more as he walked over to take it with him, maybe this would make him feel better

Takemichi was about to get to the flower before he suddenly crashed through the floor with a loud surprised shriek, it seems this area was covered by grass and moss but under it seems to have been a tunel as Takemichi tried holding onto the edge of the hole to stop himself from falling but that made it worse as he couldn't and hurt his arm on the edge of the hole making him yell in pain and fall, spraining his ankle as he landed on it. Takemichi held his hurt arm as he gladly had the jacket still on puffing the fall a tiny bit, well it almost did nothing but at least he wasn't cold so he laid on the floor looking up as he saw Sanzu looking down at him breathless as he had dan over after seeing him crash through the floor, Sanzu didn't even know what to do as he saw some Villages coming with a rope.

"Don't worry we got this, this happens a lot we need to put up some signs" a villager said as he looked at Sanzu and then down at Takemichi, Sanzu looked full of anger as he practically failed his job on keeping the hero save and for the idiocy of these villagers not putting up signs to begin with so with a angered huff he snatched the rope grumbling an insults at them for not putting up signs.

"Yeah dumb shit! This is a very important person and you couldn't even put up signs to warn people! Now how to we get him out huh!?" Sanzu asked annoyed as the villagers glared at him with others looked embarrassed nodding to his words as they knew they did something wrong, more villagers came as there were 5 men now as the held the rope while sanzu climbed down the hole looking at Takemichis injuries.

"Sorry..." Takemichi mumbled as he had tears of pain in his eyes as he let Sanzu check his arm and leg before sighing annoyed and helping Takemichi to hold onto the rope to let them men pull him out first which was a struggle since Takemichi could barley hold onto the rope long enough before they pulled out Sanzu. Sanzu didn't complain at them again as he out Takemichi on his back as he brought him to the local doctor who quickly patched him up. The doctor then lifted Takemichis pant leg showing the huge scare he had from Hinatas world where he nearly lost his leg, Sanzu looked shocked at the scar as Takemichi just let the doctor do as he want not reacting to the scar anymore. Sanzu felt even more anger as Takemichi didn't explain before he sighed annoyed and stomped to the door

"Fucking hell auch a stupid town!" Sanzu cussed as he sent off the letter per pigeon before taking the cream that the doctor gave Takemichi, he put it into their track bag before making Takemichi get into his back before letting Takemichi out on the backpack on his back, they returned to their travels even after the doctor told him let Takemichi rest but they had a tight schedule.

"I'm sorry Sanzu....I brought you into trouble" Takemichi said as Sanzu sighed shaking his head they he kept walking as it was silent for a while before Sanzu spoke up being curious.

"Where did you get that scar from?" Sanzu asked now as his anger was gone completely since it wasn't technically Takemichis fault but he would never admit that he started to feel close to this boy after knowing he got scars too.

"I got stabbed with a sword" Takemichi admitted as his head was all mush from the painkillers since that doctor didn't have any healing potions since no one had brought them any supplies for weeks now, Sanzu would have been interested weren't if for the hero he was supposed to protect getting hurt and having now only pain and no way to get healed until they found either a healing crystal from those magical deer or got to another village, but in the end they had no other way but to make another detour gladly the next Village was only 1 day travel away but it was dangerous enough for Takemichi to even let the wound be in the air it could get infected or attract the bloody moth that get attracted by blood.

Sanzu was shocked by that admission as he didn't except that too happen as he stopped to walk for a second before he kept walking, there is no need to know more even when he felt angry for some reason, who would even attack a defense less boy like him, he looked like he couldn't even hurt a fly.

"So....may I ask why you wear a mask?" Takemichi asked softly as his head laid on Sanzus shoulder as he felt sleepy from the painkillers he couldn't really keep it up anymore no matter how hard he tried, he waited for Sanzus answer but wasn't sure if the man would even answer him or not since he couldn't even tell if this man even like him or saw him still as a burden but what surprised him was when the man actually answered.

"I got scars" Takemichi blinked at Sanzus answer looking intrigued at his mask as he blinker slowly and sluggishly as he moved the hand that was around his necks to touch the mask just hesitantly.

"You shouldn't hide them, they show you that you survived" Takemichi mumbled as his eyes closed from his tiredness while Sanzu stood there stunned unable to the understand what just happened in the first place, no one had ever said that to him not even his king....he normally his them all the time after people looked at him with pity or disgust, Sanzu shook his head before he kept walking he didn't stop to rest no he just walked the while was to the village only taking on break when Takemichi woke up and had to take some painkillers other then that he walked through with his head all messed up.

Sanzu now sat in the Inn as he watched Takemichi sleep, he had gotten the healing stone pretty quickly here as he told them who he was but of course the boy on his back had been to out of it to hear so it would make it easier for Sanzu to get him to the kingdom but what he noticed the most, not one monster, none not even one attacked them on their way here it's as if they had stayed clear of the boy on the bed right there, and he also got news that all those 3 villages they had been had no monsters attack after Takemichi had left, it was so....weird he just couldn't understand how? Maybe if was so magic? Magic Sanzu himself couldn't sense? Sanzu sighed rubbing his tired eyes as he pulled his mask of and began eating the sandwich he had brought up for Takemichi but seeing that the boy was sleeping and he was hungry he would just get a new one.

"Your scars....are" Sanzu stopped as he turned his eyes to the bed seeing the sleeping boy who was now clearly awake looking at him with wide eyes as if he hadn't been just dead asleep, Takemichi was watching fight to his scars at the edge of his mouth, those diamond shaped scars that he hated so much.... Sanzu didn't even want to hear what the boy had to say as he quickly covered his mouth again and stood up to leave annoyed.

"No wait! I like them" Takemichi as he got of the bed stopping Sanzu as Sanzu just started at him completely flabbergasted on what he just said to him, no one and he means no one, has ever said that too him not once in those years that he had them or even his brother or sister, no one had said anything.... Sanzu just stared at Takemichi as Takemichi hesitantly pulled his mask of again and sat back down on the bed fixing Sanzu space.

"You....like them?" Sanzu asked now still confused on why the boy would stay then, he must be lying right through his teeth

"Yeah so don't hide them or force yourself to wait until you can eat, I really don't mind them at all" Takemichi said smiling softly as Sanzu sat back into the chair and began eating slowly testing the waters as he watched the boy watch him eating.

"Your a weird guy" Sanzu finally mumbled and that was the last they spoke off before both going to bed like nothing happened they also didn't talk about it later as well as they just kept up their journey to get to the Capital on their way they grew close and Sanzu became soft really soft with him, yeah he didn't talk much with Takemichi but actions spoke more words then actually saying things and then finally After almost traveling for 2 months they maid it as Takemichi looked around excitedly the Capital was huge and had all kinds of things as Takemichi looked around while Sanzu wore a soft smile under his mask.

Sanzu didn't push him to walk faster or stop looking around as he kinda enjoyed the company he knew the boy was having fun and that's all he need since Takemichi still had been sad for a while, he tried cheering him up in his own way, by letting him do what he wanted and making sure he stayed save so here they were Sanzu wearing a new neckless Takemichi bought, he didn't even know where Takemichi got that money from but he didn't really care after he told him it was a gift so he accepted it and wore it proudly while leading him around and then at the end of the day it was time.

"Takemichi I need you to come with me" Sanzu said as Takemichi looked at him curiously but just nodded following him along as he looked at him with confusion, but Takemichi wouldn't complain as the man had lead him all this way, he didn't know Sanzu just of had a reason for getting him to the capital with out even accepting payment but he just hopped it was nothing bad.

Well the moment he saw they were going to the castle he thought it really might be bad or luck since in the end he would of gone there to ask about the portal anyway so he just kept following Sanzu, what was weird is that the guards let them trough bowing at him and Sanzu, servants looked happy at him bowing as well? Takemichi couldn't figure it out as he looked at Sanzu who looked amused at his concussion that was until he stood before a girl, she looked really, really, really! Identical to Emma from the world's before! He was even about to greet her but he held back as he knew it wasn't the Emma he had known.

"Welcome! I'm princess Emma! And I welcome you greatly Hero! I'm sorry but my idiotic brother won't come as he has....other things to do" Takemichi looked confused at her and then at Sanzu who just looked stone faced and a bit troubled at the news of the king being absent again for a reason he knew well.

"Hero? I'm no hero" Takemichi said as he waved his hands and shook his head having no clue what she was talking about Emma looked confused before clapping her hands together and doing a soft noise that sounded like "ohhh"

*You must not know! But before that Sanzu your excused go go to my brother" Emma said as Sanzu hesitated and looked at Takemichi before bowing and leaving, Takemichi watched him leave before he turned to Emma who waved her hand, once again Takemichi had to follow someone as she lead him to a weird room with a magic scroll there and a bight glowing tube that was missing something.

"This is out history! You must of heard about the prophecy? No?" Emma said as she turned to Takemichi who nodded and looked at the scroll and tube inside of what to make of it as he hadn't heard the full story.

"Good well it's not the full story to make it short the Hero who will appear to save us all is you! Black hair beautiful blue eyes and a weak but strong body! We were told you would save us all by bringing the stone!" Emma said as Takemichi looked confused a stone?

Did they mean the stone he had been carrying around? The little old stone he took from the forth world with Taiju? Takemichi went through his pockets before finding the stone he had been carrying around this whole time, he didn't want to leave it behind and gladly he never once let it be taken out of his pockets. Takemichi handed it too her and Emma looked at it seeing nothing but a small gem it would be worthless in others eyes but she trusted the scroll and placed it into the tube making it float and glow up brightly making both of them close their eyes as a shockwave of magic passed past them. Both Emma and Takemichi looked shocked looking at each other before seeing the scroll light up and vanish into little glowing sparks, Takemichi didn't even know what to make of this as he only wanted to get to the portal this whole time yet here he was, having saved this world? This was stupid in his eyes as he only carried around a stone? Like...what? But Emma seemed to see it differently as she shrieked up and hugged Takemichi tightly and even twirling him around, he must say Emma was really strong!

"Oh thank you oh great hero!" She said as she let Takemichi go with a bright smile as she cleared her throat knowing that this was not lady like as she bowed softly and dusted off her dress before looking at Takemichi again

"Ahem anyway, we will give you as reward anything you like! Just say it and I will make it happen!" Emma said as she lead him back to the throne room knowing already what he wanted as the scroll told them everything they need to know, but I'm the end she hopped he would stay a bit longer so they could celebrate at least or even just let him meet her brother so he could get his ass down to be a real king and show his gratitude.

"I would like to go home.....with home I mean the portal you have" Takemichi said bluntly as his eyes lid up at what she had said, his eyes refilled with new hope a spark she didn't know he had as she looked surprised for a second having known what he would of said but never though he would see him this emotional.

"Won't you at least stay for a celebration?" Emma said hesitantly as she had now seen how desperate Takemichi was to go home and see the portal to go home, Emma wasn't sure if this would be selfish of her too ask him to stay...

"I did nothing....I only had the stone I'm no hero to be celebrated, I just want to go home....I'm just," Takemichi stopped himself as he sighed and shook his head no wanting to sink deeper in this rabbit hole of emotions, Emma looked at him before nodding softly and leading the way to a separate part of the castle leading him to the portal room as they passed several doors where he saw Sanzu look at them confused as they passed. Emma saw him too and waved him along to follow since he was part of the family that save kept the Portal the real second in command Sanzu Haruchiyo.

"Sanzu unlock the door" Emma said as Sanzu looked confused at her and Takemichi before nodding and unlocking the big door and pushing it open showing the portal in its glory standing in the middle of the room and glowing Emma and Sanzu himself never saw it activated since it only opened once the Kingdom was saved Sanzu then looked at Takemichi with a sad look knowing that the person he had gotten to known over the last 2 months would be leaving now through the portal but what made him stop was the happy tears in Takemichis eyes and the spark of pure hope, Sanzu knew that Takemichi had need this. Takemichi whipped his tears turning around to Sanzu and Emma as he handed Sanzu his jacket back and smiled brightly with tears while he thanked Emma.

"Thank you both...with you Sanzu I would of never made it here, and thank you too Emma for everything and letting me go home....I will see you both once more once I finally get home" Takemichi said confusing them before he hugged Sanzu and then Emma they just looked confused at each other but accepted the hug.

"Goodbye Sanzu and wear your scars with pride" Takemichi said before waving goodbye at them and walking through the portal the moment he did it closed leaving a little ring behind before that collapsed, Takemichi left a confused Sanzu behind who felt sad and a teasing Emma as she teased Sanzu about having opened up finally letting the boy storm off with a flushed face and annoyance as he simply returned to his king with new determination, leaving his mask behind and showing of the beautiful neckless with the blue crystal of for everyone to see.

Chapter Text

Takemichi didn't know what was happening, or what to do in the Beginn with as he woke up in that weird place again, his body felt off and weird like hale had no strength at all in it or could even move, Takemichi blinked a little, he was in the hospital room again, the one he had dreamed about, but he didn't know if this was a world, his home or a dream....he felt like going crazy as he couldn't tell which was which anymore, he couldn't trust anything that was around him, not the cards, not the flowers or the man sitting at his side holding his hand. Takemichi didn't know who he was hit he looked tired and too focused, he was completely forcused on Takemichis hand that he was holding, he had dark circles under his eyes that were red, it seems he had cried before Takemichi himself had woke up, his hair was messy and blond, the blond seemed so familiar somehow but Takemichi couldn't place it, he couldn't even think about a name or even where he knew this man from.

Takenichi looked at the weird uniform he was wearing, it was black with yellow writing on it, Takemichi guessed it was a gang or even just a jacket, but one was for sure, he didn't seem happy, he didn't seem to like being there or more like he didn't like Takemichi being there? Takemichi wasn't sure but as he blinked some more letting his mind catch up to what he was thinking he tried moving his hand making it twitch as He couldn't do anything else, but that was all he need as the man looked surprised and looked at him in shock, relive and something else? Takenichi just blinked at him as he was slowly getting tired again like it was draining enough to even have moved his arm just a tiny little bit, like it was the most incredible thing he ever did so his body was going to sleep mode.

The man started talking but Takemichi couldn't hear anything as it sounded muffled so he just blinked at him slowly, he saw him crying and reach out with a shaking hand, Takemichi just watched it as he was thinking about where he knew this gesture but the hand quickly changed it's way as the man realized Takemichi was falling asleep again making it shake him as Takenichi blinked and groaned not wanting to be shaken as his muscles hurt from just that little shaking, the man stopped and looked at him with hopes as he yelled something to someone over his shoulder while Takenichi slowly closed his eyes only seeing a nurse come running just as he closed his eyes, he felt them shaking him but Takemichi couldn't open his eyes, no matter how hard he tried and before he knew it he woke up with a gasp looking around as he saw he was in some kind of forest?

Takemichi blinked confused as he took deep breaths letting his body calm down after suddenly waking up, he was sweating and looked dirty, Takemichi guess he must of laid here quiet a while for his clothes to be dirty from the ground and tree, so he quickly got up and looked around all he saw was forest and more forest, Takemichi didn't know what to do as he tried blinking his frustrating tears away, he just wanted to go home, be home and have fun, not be trapped in a damn world over and over again....hell he didn't even know how much more he must do before he couldn finally go home, or was this his home all along? Was he lost and confused maybe even insane? In Takemichis eyes it was like that, maybe he had gone insane, after all he felt like it to a point he would laugh if he saw just one more stupid mission to do or a little note about having to save a world or even just help people by fixing their relationship.

It was like the gods were mocking him, making him into a story he didn't want to be, a hero that he didn't deserve to be or even want to be for that matter, it felt like he was just following a story plot someone made for him that he had to follow no matter what. It was frustrating. What didn't help was this stupid mission sysmet that popped up just as he though that making him cry laugh, he didn't want to keep going, he didn't want to keep helping people while they hopped he would stay with them! He didn't want to hurt them by leaving them behind all because he wanted too go home. It wasn't right, not even if he got the memories back from that person, he just couldn't bare it any longer, the sad faces, the hope in their eyes that he wouldn't leave, the world's that he had to travel too and the constant fearing of dying in a world he knew nothing about, what would even happen if he died in the first place? Would he have to be married here? Never reach home.....never see his friends that he apparently had?

Takemichi took a deep breath as he pulled his hand from his face looking at the mission screen as his eyes widened up

Mission: reach the end! Get out of this forest with the help of a person and get your memories!

Mission 2: leave the forest alone and return home immediately

Reward: portal

Quick reward: go home

Now people would call hims selfish, or even and idiot but the moment he read it hope returned as he immediately started looking around before just running off into one direction, he didn't care about the memories anymore! If they were really his friends then they would make new memories right? They would help him recover them another way? Hell even help him just forget them and make better ones! In his eyes he remembered everyone he need too! He remembered Mirsuya, Hakai, Yuzuha, Emma, Hinata, Pah and Sanzu! Yeah there were some big questions like why they were wearing a wird uniform of why they called him a weird name but he could always remember that another way! He could always just suck it up and act like he remembered.

So he ran, he ran as fast as he could, he didn't stop or even looked at the house he ran past where a person watched him confused, Takemichi ignored him completely he didn't want to risk taking the other quest and having to do other worlds again, this was his chance to get home! To finally leave and return to the world he belonged in and too see his real friends, his real people that he should be with! Takenichi just ran until he couldn't anymore and had to stop to catch his breath, he didn't want too but he had too so he took deep breaths and looks at the lake, he didn't care if he could drink it or not so he just tasted a bit and then drank it, he didn't have time so he just took off running again watching out for any clearings, any hints of getting out before he finally saw a light, a light at the end of a tunnel he had been shivering it for god knows how long, for him it had been years already for others? He didn't know all he knew is that it felt like he just had to leave! He had to get out, but he stopped as he saw a person standing at the forest entrance staring at him, he had glasses on and a haircut that lookd like his from Taijus world, he was a bit tanned and had maybe blue eyes, but Takemichi couldn't tell from this far away. Takemichi cought his breath as the person just looked at him before speaking.

"So it seems you made you choice no?' the person said as he walked closer with a smile, Takenichi was unsure but he got chills as he looked at the person feeling like his body was telling him to just run, but the other way not last the boy and give him a chance to reach for him.

"What do you mean....who are you?" Takemichi mumbled as he looked at the boy as the boy was circling around him now like he was some kind of pray for him or even a fun little toy to play with, Takemichi didn't like it one but not even in a million years would he like this.

"Don't worry about it, let's get you home won't we?" The person said as he suddenly covered Takemichis eyes with his hand, Takemichi wanted too fight it but the man was strong, strong enough to not move his hands was and even make Tkaenichi walk into a direction, Tkaenichi couldn't help but feel like he was mong a big mistake, like he should push him away and turn back around, to look for that person he was supposed to find to get his memories back, but it was too late now he thought, as he heard a voice calling for them yelling about the person who was making him walk to stop and to not do this. Takenichi though the vice was familiar but it was quickly tones out by the man who was leading him.

"You want to go home, don't you? I will get you home so just close your eyes completely and listen to me" the man said as Takemichi felt himself convicted, he didn't know what to do, he knew he wanted to go home but to trust a stranger? Who seems to make him push away a person he was supposed to remember? But on the other hand he knew that just seconds ago he was ready to abandon his me oires to get home, he knew that I the end he always could make new ones, he knew that if he really wanted he couldn't remember maybe after a while! Yeah he could always remember another way, to not have to travel worlds and fight for his life, so he closed his eyes letting the desperate voice of almost 4 males behind him fade away, he didn't know when it became 4, but he knew he old ignore them, ignore them and finally go home where he would meet those people anyway, where he would see Mitsuya, Hakkai, Emma, Hinata, Taiju, Inupi, Koko, Pah and Yuzuha again, he would see them again and let them tell him what he was forgetting.

Takemichi felt himself step onto something weird before the mand was gone and Takemichi could look around, he was in a white room, it was completely white and the man who led him here was behind him just staring as he was suddenly wearing the same uniform the others had on in his memories before there was suddenly another man next too him, he was very tall and strong looking, he had 2 tattoos on his hands that Takemichi couldn't read as his eyes were blurry for a weird way, he tried blinking it away but it seems like his mind was blocking these tattoos out like they were censored with a blurry image like people did if someone swore in a TV show and blacked out the word he said and made a beep sound. Takemichi just looked at them as they were smiling at him in a weird way, it was giving him deep chills as they didn't even speak anymore and just stared at him like it was the best thing they could do.

"Why did you bring me here?" Takemichi then mumbled as he build up his corrage to speak, his voice shaking, scared that the short man lied too him and didn't actually lead him too the exit, seeing the men shrug made it even worse before the short one pushed his glasses up with his fingers then pointing at a white portal.

"No reason, go now, the people you left behind weren't important anyway, so leave" the man said as his companion next to him chuckled and pushed him into the portal making Takemichi shriek as he watched them almso tin slow motion while he was falling, it felt like it was clicking in his mind, like the puzzle had been filled up as he rembered who those 2 were, the reason he was even here was because of them, because they had tried killing Emma, making Takenichi shield here and get hit im the head by the bat.....it was Kisakis and Hanma....that means they tricked him!

"No!! Your lying I need to go back" Takemichi yelled but it was in vain, he was crying as he fell through the portal already feeling himself tingle and twitch, he should of not trusted them, he shouldn't have thought he didn't need the memories, if he remembered correctly Kisakis would always do anything to hurt him or....or? He couldn't remember who the other person was, he knew Kisakis wanted Hinata, but who else was he hurting other then Himself and Hinata? Well Emma was also the case but he couldn't remember the other person....he just couldn't remember and before he knew it his world went black, it was quiet and black, if his was death then he wished he never died.

It was just black nothing was there, no one or even a sound to Beginn with it was as if this was his personal hell, having to spend his days in darkness and never see the friends he had for reall, to feel their hugs, game nights or even hear their voices, He could still rmebere Hakkais....Hakkais? Takenichi pulled a blank as he couldn't think back to the Hakkais he met in this world, he would only rmebere the other one he knew from his real memories....or Mirsuya who wanted to....to...be a fashion designer in Tokyo....but he could of sworn he had been in a different world ....

Takemichi tried shaking his head it felt like all the memories of the world were fading completely, Takemichi began crying trying to hold his head like it would keep these memories inside, it didn't help that he was starting to get a huge headache like he was overdoing his head again, he always felt this pain right after getting to a new world, but it was worse, 10 times worse. Takemichi felt like screaming, he felt like just begining his head until it would stop that was until it was suddenly gone, it vanished and before he knew it his eyes opened with great effort seeing he wasn't in a dark room again but the hospital room he had been....that he had been in all this time. He had been never anywhere else had he? He was always here so why did it feel like he had the longest dream of his life? Like he had been suffering more then Noah after leaving behind humanity to saidl his ship. Takemichi looked around very slowly as he saw 2 shocked faces sitting right next to him staring down at him, Takemichi blinked slowly as he stared at them before his mind tried filling the puzzle he had and tried thinking about who he was even seeing but, seeing as he couldn't even remember what was happening to begin with, and that his mind felt like he had taken drugs he quickly just gave up on it staring at them for a while longer as no one said anything before it clicked slowly who was looking down at him. Takemichi slowly opened his mouth to speak as in a really raspy and weak voice the names.

"San....Sanzu?......E...Emma?" He saw their eyes fill up with tears as Takemichi couldn't even think about what to do before Emma hugged him tightly making Tkaenichi groan, but the woman seems not to care as she just hugged him tightly, sobbing and talking too fast for his brain too keep up and translate into a words that he knew. It seems this would be a really long day before the painkillers and drugs wore off that the nurses game him, well that's what he thinks at least.

Chapter Text

Takemichi woke to a very very strange world, to put it very lightly? He was bombarded by Emmas crying hugging then getting angry and ending up hitting him over the head before apologizing and hugging him again crying, she couldn't even speak properly making it sound like chibbedish to Takemichi who literally just woke up from the probably longest dream he had in his entire life, he isn't even sure if he was going crazy after experiencing..... experiencing...why couldnt he remember all of a sudden, it felt as if he couldn't remember anything at all except that he had a strange dream.....

After about a good 20 minutes Sanzu managed to speak up over Emma who had snapped out of her crying party and quickly left the room to go call who ever she need to call since it seems he had been asleep for a long time, not sleep more like a coma? That's what Takemichi assumed anyway before Sanzu even spoke up even if his mind feels sluggish all over and a little tired to say the least.

"Hey brat, ,your finally awake" Sanzu gruffed out as always, hidding his concerns for him completely even if his forwn and relive on his face completely betrayed his grumpy voice making Takemichi smile softly feeling happy to have Sanzu there even if the man had worried his friend deeply by simply getting to the hospital yet again.

"How.....long was I..." Takemichi stopped as he started coughing feeling his throat being dry from how ever long he hadn't drunk anything, Sanzu reacted helping him sit normally now while he held the glass to his lips helping him drink some water which Takemichi except even if he was a little embarrassed to do this right now.

"You slept for 5 days you idiot....we are lucky you even survived" Sanzu mumbled in anger and regret that they almost lost Takemichi yet again for his stupidity and wanting to somehow always be a hero, lucky to him Emma survived that Takemichi only got hit in the back by the bat after jumping in Emmas way, by doing so he fell to the ground with her knocking his head on the street while hugging Emmas head close to his chest. Luckily Emma was unharmed except for the little scratches she got from sliding a view feet with Takemichi.

The worst thing on that day was that Mikey found Takemichi past out on the side of the street while Emma was shaking him crying having called for Mikey in a shaky voice, Mikey reacted that day very harsh immediately picking Takemichi up on his back and starting to Jog to a hospital with Emma behind trying to keep pace with him which was a big task, Emma herself saw her brothers face full of fear and despair the more Takemichi bleed from his head and wouldn't wake up, it was a pure scare to Mikey's soul so much so he saw his older brother in Takemichi the moment he saw him laying there bleeding from his head. Not only that he didn't want to admit it but Takemichi had been in his eyes the most precious thing he had in this world that was keeping him sain and under control.

Sanzu wouldn't tell Takemichi that part of course as he only explained that he had saved Emmas life and had managed to hit his head on the way to the ground so hard he passed out and that Mikey had brought him here. That made Takemichi pause as he was finished drinking letting Sanzu pull the glass away, he looked up at Sanzu confused as he slowly spoke up in a very soft voice that would be endearing to hear weren't it for the words that were about to come out of the boys mouth.

"Who....is Mikey?" Sanzu immediately paused his eyes going wife as both of them just stared at each other, Sanzu slipped the glass out of his hand making it fall to the ground gladly it didn't break and just rolled away from them, Takemichi was confused if he said anything wrong or what was happening here even, but Sanzu was to shocked to speak up before immediately grabbing Takemichis shoulders after a few 5 minutes.

"What do you mean!?! You know him damn well!" Sanzu yelled now trying to shake the memorie back into his mind but Takemichi was just so confused what was wrong and why Sanzu insisted he knew this Mikey guy in the first place after all he never heard that name or even seen the guy he was sure if it. All he knew right now is that he did think it sounded a little well let's say weird to him.

But before they could even fight more the door burst open showing Emma with a doctor in tow and 2 people Takemichi wasn't sure of, the Doctor came over to talk to Takemichi, he asked Questions and checked his head while doing so Sanzu looked nervous and anxious pulling Emma aside and whispering.

"Emma get Mikey out of here...." He whispered as Emma looked confused and stopped looking at him, she was confused and angry about to protest loudly before he immediately shook his head whispering again as he placed a hand over her mouth. "Takemichi just said he can't remember who Mikey is....get my king out of here if he hears that he will break" Emmas eyes go wide as she couldn't believe what she just heard before she looked at Takemichi who did seem confused on who Mikey and Draken seem to be, she immediately nodded and reacted.

"Let's give the doctor space and go get something to eat for Mitchy" Emma said trying to pull Mikey out the room who was incredibly stubborn standing there looking at Takemichi wanting to just run over and hug him and talk to him, Draken was confused too looking at Emma who threw him a quick pleading look saying all she need to say which made Draken reakt and pull Mikey out the room with them making Mikey start fighting them. Leaving Sanzu and the doctor in the room with Takemichi.

"Doctor Takemichi told me he couldn't remember a important friend of us" Sanzu said as the doctor was about to say he was fine, he turned to Sanzu with an raised eyebrow before turning back to Takemichi, starting to speak again to the boy.

"Is that so? Tell me Mr. Hanagaki do you remember anything that you could tell me? How about something from the day you got into the accident tell me what you did before the accident?" The doctor asked looking at Sanzu to see if he would be able to answer if it was the truth he nodded as they looked at Takemichi who seemed confused before speaking.

"Well....I...I remember I....I went to a grave for some reason it was important it was ehh Emmas older Brother why I was there I'm not sure anymore, I met Emma and we talked before a motorbike sprinted at us, I reacted and protected Emma as it seemed they were trying to hit her with the bat....after that it's black" Takemichi explained raising red flags everywhere as Sanzu immediately began getting loud yelling even almost.

"What do you mean!? You went there with Mikey remember!?" The doctor immediately intervened trying to calm Sanzu down as he wrote that down while looking concerned as well seeing as it seemed to be a big hole in his memories about that person.

"Lets calm down, how about this, we start listing names and see if you rember them no?" The doctor said looking at both of them as Sanzu just grunter making a annoyed TSH noise as Takemichi just nodded looking more confused by the second. Deciding to go along as he did feel he was forgetting something as it seemed and that's how it started all the name calling it stuck down to only 5 people he couldn't remember at all.

"What do you mean!?!? Mitchy, Your telling me you can't Remember Chifuyu, Draken, Mikey and fucking Kisaki? The one who you hate the most!?!?" Sanzu yelled angry now as the doctor tried to calm them down but also looked concern at the information that this accident was seeming to be planned and that they knew who it was in the first place that did this and that there were even hatred between these teenagers so much so that they were attacking each other. At the end the doctor send Sanzu out the room as he couldn't calm down at all.

Sanzu stormed out the room looking furious and mumbling to himself as he went to the lobby seeing Mikey, Draken and Emma walking back to the room with the food but paused as they saw the angry look on his face. seemingly ready to smash someone's head in as he headed for the exit but getting stopped by Draken looking confused which Mikey as well but not really into it as he just wanted to go Takemichi.

"Wow where are you going Sanzu? Why are you even this angry" Draken said grabbing Snazu by the shoulder while Emma seemed worried knowing he could be angry because of the memorie lose but this? He seemed to angry in her eyes and that was quickly confirmed as he mumbled through gritted teeth.

"I'm killing that damn bastard! I'm killing him I tell you he will wish he never hit him" Sanzu said trying to storm out but before he could do Mikey finally spoke up and to Sanzu Mikey's words were absolute so if his king asked him to kill he would with no hesitation.

"Tell me Sanzu, what did the doctor say to make you this angry" Mikey said with a cold voice almost detached as if he was bracing himself of what was about to come, he knew they all were stressed already about the fight since the fight had been moved away for 1 week making it happen in only 3 days, they were even lucky they could do that after Izana tried to call them chickens and claim victory but thanks to Chifuyus words they could move it away letting Mikey concentrate on Takemichi.

"I...." Sanzu began looking hesitant but angry still as he frowned which you could see clearly through the mask he had on, which wasn't hiding his anger at all, they could clearly see the anger shaking in his hands and arms before he spoke again knowing his king need to know. But Emma was very hesitant about it after all she didn't know how her brother would react, Mikey and Draken just asked restless in the other hand not knowing what was happening and didn't really wanna know if it was so serious to begin with.

"Take ich can't remember....some..people" Sanzu spat out in anger barley being able to hold back from yelling, he didn't know what would happen next so did Emma as she eyed her brothers reaction who seemed shocked for a good minute before playing it off with a smile acting childish again for the first time in those 5 days that Takemichi had been unconscious.

"Ah only that? Draken it seems Mitchy finally forgot you, after all he would never forget me!" Mikey said smiling as Draken looked offended and even tried to look at Sanzu to see if that was a joke but seeing as the boy couldn't even look at Mikey or him.... he knew there was more to it immediately and looked at Emma who was shaking her head making it clear that the truth was there for Mikey to take.

"Mikey.... actually..." Emma began as Sanzu stormed out mumbling about killing someone leaving only Emma Mikey and Draken to stand in the lobby with Mikey holding the food they got for Takemichi, hearing Emma speak though Mikey passed his teasing and smile looking at her before quickly shaking his head and walking to Takemichis room.

"What? Mitchy meet me before you! So if he remembered you He remberes me! After all I met him first before all of you! He is my Mitchy I gave him the name and let him join toman and be close" Mikey said confidently while walking to the room trailed by Draken and Emma who tried speaking more looking worried, just as they got there the doctor left letting Mikey and Draken enter before he handed Emma the list mumbling that the Sanzu guy said to give it too her before leaving. She looked at the list and wasn't sure what the circled names meant if it was good or bad, but as she saw Mikey's name circled she knew it meant these were the names Takemichi had forgot, among them where Chifuyu bis partner, Kisaki who she wasn't sure about he was at all, Hanma as well? No clue to her, Draken who was his co captain after all and lastly Hinata....

Emma entered the room looking still shocked at the paper as chaos was around here looking up she saw what was going on, a confused Takemichi eating very very hesitanly the fruit Mikey was holding a Draken trying to make Mikey stop and Mikey who didn't seemed brothered speaking to Takemichi.

"Emma....who are these people" Takemichi said tearing up in relief as he saw the girl enter looking at her with a pleading look making Emma pale even more and tear up a little rr,ing to hold back here tears as she looked Draken who seemed to hold back his tears at well at the words Takemichi just said while Mikey paused his childish fazad cracking trying to pretend he didn't hear what he just said.

"Takemichi...can't you really remember? Thats Mikey...your closest friend and this is Draken...." Emma mumbled on tears clutching the paper tightly making it crumble before she spoke again tears rolling a little "what about Hinata, Chifuyu? Can't you remember them as well?" Draken immediately passed at her words looking even more shocked as well as Mikey who froze completely stopping from trying to feed Takemichi fruits before just turning to Emma and looking at the paper.

"What do you..." Draken started liking completely shocked even as he grabbed the paper from her a little harshly having no time to ask her nicely as he looked at the circle names it was practically the closest friends he had that he forgot except about Hanma and kisaki, well Draken didn't care about those name after all Takemichi wasn't to happy when he heard those names clearly shoai g his distain when even seeing Kisaki to a point he would glare at the man with pure furry with out even knowing, so they did t mind him not remembering him at all.

"No...who are these names? Why....why do you keep asking if I know them?" Takemichi said looking between Emma and the 2 strangers he didn't know or seemed to remember as everyone as telling him, at his words the whole room went quiet, Mikey next too him looked at him with pure hurt and shock as if his whole world shattered in just those words from him, he grabs Takemichis hands tearing up trying to hide it.

"It's me Mitchy....your Mikey, your captain and your friend...don't you remember? I saved you from those thugs and even trained you and and....we did so many things" he said with hopeful eyes as Takemichi looked a little scared but also confused at his gaze as it seemed familiar but he just couldn't remember at all as he shook his head with a sympathetic look making Mikey a world shatter completely, pulling his hand back as if it had been burned and eyes just wide open, it hit Draken hard too as he too froze, Takemichi didn't even react to Mikey's words he knew Mikey was a little brat but forgoting him completely? Wasn't that too cruel of this world? Mikey had already lost his big brother and just found out his step brother wants him dead....but this? This would give Mikey the last push he need to knock him out.

"Let's not get to hasty! Maybe we only need Takemichi to meet his friends again and he will remember! Maybe we try bringing him to Toman again to see everyone" Emma quickly said trying to light up the mood as she herself was crying but seeing her brothers face made this so scary so very scary in her eyes that she just had to be brave and say something, it helped a little as Mikey slowly nodded after all they did get the get go to take Takemichi out of the hospital as the doctor only said it was temporary on the paper

"Yeah....let's do that" Mikey mumble just looking at Takemichi with a stare that wasn't really a sad stare but also not a angry one more like empty and a little bit of hope that was there at the thought he might remember if they get the whole gang together....

There was only hope.... Or Mikey would actually break apart.

Chapter Text

Takemichi ended up being able to leave the hospital 1 day later per the doctor's orders, he wasn't sure what to think of it as that random guy wanted him to ride on his motorcycle while Emma just looked at him with tears again after all she was the only one he could remember from these 2 meaning Draken and Mikey of course, at the end he just accepted making Mikey smile and pat the seat behind him, Takemichi hesitantly got on it feeling weird like it was familiar, what was even more familiar was when the guy suddenly took off making Tkameichi yell and hug his arms around Mikey's waste making the small mean snicker which Takemichi could clearly feel and hear even since they were so close with Takemichi pressing his head onto the guys back before hesitantly popping his head out from over his shoulder.

"Say...ehh Mikey-kun was it? How did we get to know each other if Emma says I know you?" Takemichi said hesitantly as he looked at the sigh of what was I front of them while letting his head rest on Mikey's shoulder so he could look over it after alk while still having his arms around him so he wouldn't fall of at all. At that question he tensed up before smiling bidding his little hope that just maybe he would remember.

"We met though complet coincidents a guy out of my gang was doing a illegal fighting ring which we don't allow, you and your friends got sucked into it and had to fight, the day I went to break it up I meet you all shaking and barley standing up still not giving up fighting the stupid guy" Mikey said with a fond smile as he kept driving giving Takemichi only a small glance before focusing on the road again actually driving safely, well more safely then normal probably scared he would crash or hurt Takemichi worse then his mind already was.

"What? A gang?" Takemichi asked confused shivering at the tough of being in a gang before I looked at the clothes Mikey was wearing it had been confusing to him while those 2 guys came in black uniform, at first Takemich tough they were gonna beat him up before Emma calmed him down but hearing he had fought against a guy from this gang made him scared a little.

"Yeah your in the gang Mitchy, it's my gang we call it Toman" Mikey said hopping it will at least jogg his mind a little up and make him remember something at the word Toman Takemichis eyes did light up a little, he did seem to remember something about it...it sounded to familiar not too, but it wasn't much to go off so he shook his head and stayed silent for the rest of the way staying in his thoughts as he tried searching where he could of went wrong in his mind to not remember who Mikey and Draken were and all these other names, and what toman was.

They got to the shrine where they always held his meeting there he got of the bike with Mikey looking around confused as there were stairs leading up to the shrine, it seemed all so familiar as Takemich I stood there while Draken and Emma pulled up after then having been a bit slower then Mikey but not too much since Mikey had been as careful as he could be in a motorcycle, which wasn't much but for his Mitchy it was enough to at least tone it down a little.

"I was here before" Takemichi mumbled making Mikeys eyes light up with hope that was until Takemichi spoke more "this is where I met Mitsuya!" Mikey immediately frowned even looking unpleased before pouting and looking at Draken who also looked annoyed a little but sighed.

"That is correct Takemitchy" Draken said not standing beside him as he softly lead Takemichi to walk to the stairs so they could walk up before Mikey threw a tantrum about how he could remember Mitsuya but now Mikey, he didn't even hesitate as Mikey stormed past them just a few feet up ahead as he glared at Mitsuya who noticed the stare and shivered unsure what he did, the others on the other hand who saw Takemichi walking up mid up immediately all rugsing over.

"Mitchy your okay!!" Hakkai said standing there as Takemichi immediately lid up seeing a familiar face he actually remembered and could recognize, he immediately nodded hugging Hakkai feeling like he had missed the give in a long time, Hair didn't even hesitate picking Takemichi up from under his armpits twirling around as everyone else came over.

"Glad you survived crybaby" Baji said, after all the news went around that Takemichi couldn't remember some names....it was especially hard on Chifuyu who was here and didn't even try greeting TKemkchi just yet worried he couldn't remember at all everything they shared...what would they both doo if Takemichi couldn't even remember his time traveling that is what worried Chifuyu the most after all Takemichi had wanted him only 3 days before the accident that something big was happening And that the future was in danger...is that what he had been warned about? That Takemichi would lose his memories and if that is so did he get him back if he could remember and even want him?

Everyone began to settle down after Takemichi had been passed around in the round from Hair to Mitsuya to Baji who nearly slapped him hard enough to make him fall to the ground, then too the twins smiley and Angry before ending up to Sanzu who looked calmed now then yesterday who didn't say much and just petted Takemichis head making his hair all fluffy and all over the place, it looked better that way after all and everyone would agree to that in their eyes. After all it was awful how his hair looked before and were even lucky he agreed to dye if black after finding out his hair was black before to Emmas Help how obtained child pictures through Hinata.

"Okay enough the meeting is starting for real now after all there is a fight coming with Tenjiku" at that name from Draken, Takemichi immediately pearked up turning too him, he remembered having to fight the gang and being on edge but he couldn't remeber why.... It just felt so tense when he heard it before a boy walked over, he was so familiar his head hurts making him hold it.

Sanzu noticed immediately and looked a bit concerned at Takemichi but didn't want to interrupt the meeting as Mikey had just began talking so he looked at Takemichi trying to see why he was groaning and looking at Chifuyu who now stood next to Takemichi with a sad look, Sanzu just sighed and let them be even he knew when it was time to make space and let people talk them out even if he didn't like how close Chifuyu had always been to Takemichi but if he could remember Chifuyu then he also would remember his king making his king happy then before so he would allow it.

"Hey....Partner" it took nearly only 1 word for Takemichi to lean against Chifuyu holding his head before stopping and looking at Chifuyu for real and shock, the ones close to them stopped and looked which was Baji and Katzudora who had joined the gang thanks to Takemichi having talked to Mikey, but he didn't stay to close to Takemichi feeling guilty he even stabbed the guy that day so he mostly, to Mikey's orders as well, stayed away from him.

"Chifuyu...." Takemichi mumbled holding Chifuyus shoulders tearing up a little as he remembered him making everyone actually stop talking after Takemichi said Chifuyus name loudly and almost happily as he teared up and hugged him, the fall out was immediately as Mikey Pouted and threw a tantrum.

"It's so unfair! Why am I the only here who he can't remember!? I met him first! He is my Mitchy...." Mikey said annoyed and with pure confusion was he really that little to Takemichi that he couldn't even remember him but could remember Chifuyu just after talking to him for a few seconds? In his mind it was clear why he couldn't remember Draken, after all he wasn't important but why couldn't his Mitchy, yes, HIS Mitchy not remember him? It was so unfair in his eyes.

Chifuyu stopped turning to Mikey seeing his frustration and anger sighing softly after all he knew as well as the others that Mikey was more clingy then anyone here with Takemichi and seeing as Takemichi couldn't remember him it must be hard so he didn't even try to rip a joke or try to make Mikey feel unwanted after all..... this was HIS partner in the first place and Chifuyu knew he was way more important as Mikey as he knew way more about Takemichi than Mikey so yeah, but it would be cruel so he decided against it

"Let calm down Mikey....he doesn't remember a lot of pe-" Draken said but was immediately cough off by an angry Mikey who was glaring at him feeling angry and frustrated that his Mitchy couldn't remember him the only person he should remember, he was the reason Takemichi even got to know Chifuyu or Mitsuyua or everyone else!!! He would of never met anyone if it weren't for him! So why can't he remsmber him! Why just why! Mikey scoffed immediately turning away and leaving the meeting himself wanting to blow of steam Sanzu hot on his tail following him to assist his King while mumbling something to him which made Mikey even more mad as he drifted off in his bike with Sanzu behind.

Everyone was stung and Draken rubbed his forehead knowing it was hard for Mikey but leaving the meeting when they didn't even speak about what happened or talked about who was the culprit? He was such a bart, so Draken dismissed everyone for not as no one even knew where to go from here. Chifuyu decided to take Takemichi himself wanting to see how much Takemichi remembered in the first place, so after driving with him to his house he immediately began speaking.

"What happened Partner! What do you remember tell me you haven't forgotten everything!!" Chifuyu immediately said as he was already gripping Takemichis shoulders terrified that if he didn't remember that the future was fucked, if Takemichi couldn't remember and Chifuyu had no way to stop the future then they were doomed to fail completely seeing as the last thing Takemichi said to him was something about Emma and the fight against Tenjiku and something about Kisaki.

"Eh? I remember being hit by a baseball bat? Is that what you mean?" Takemichi mumbled as I looked a bit confused at his Partner, he knew they were Partners and always had each other's back and some fantasies about being side by side but he sounded worried like he was forgetting something.

"What...what about the future!" Chifuyu asked now even more scared as he was already feeling the blood drain from his face, after all what would he do now? He can't remember that he time traveled or why he was here, hell all he knew is that he couldn't even Remember Hinata the one he traveled here for! Wait...Hinata! If he remember Hinata maybe he would remember why he was here!! Maybe that was all there was! But how would he make Takemichi remember Hinata but before he could even think more and more into his spiraling brain Takemichi spoke.

"What do you mean? The future? Have you been reading to many Mangas again?" Takemichi said laughing as he softly patted Chifuyus shoulder looking a little worried about what Chifuyu just said so he moved aside to the tkitchen to get Chifuyu a glass of water to drink to make his partner calm down a little. In his eyes Chifuyu was losing it right now seemingly from the shock that he was almost forgot him.

Chifuyu felt his world collapse the biggest problem the could of happened was here And it was not good, he didn't even have a plan on how to fix this in the first place he was the only one now that remembered what would happen or more like that knew that the future was at risk here and was likely falling completely apparent so what would he do now? Should he keep an eyes for the rest of his years in Kisaki to make sure he wasn't doing anything? Or on Takemichi to make sure he helped Mikey stay how he was which wasn't working right now since Mikey was angry for the fact that Takemichi didn't remebere him at all. This was all a shit show and he did not know how to fix it at all, how would he be ever able to fix this whit out his partner that had the whole future in his hands.....

Chifuyu quickly shook his head feeling like crying right now, after all Takemichi saved his Baji of death...he owed it to Takemichi that he would fix this and not let the future go to waste, so he quickly grabbed Takemichis phone which he took after Draken gave it to him at the meeting, they hadn't given it to Takemichi of fearing he would be too overwhelmed but seeing how it was now there was only one way so, he then went to contacts and look through the old flip phone finding Hinatas contact he hesitated after all it's already late but knowing the girl she would answer if Takemichi called after all she might be the only one who doesn't know yet seeing as Takemichi couldn't even remember her so he was sure Emma didn't call her that Takemichi was awake. He told Takemichi he was just calling someone getting a confused nod before Chifuyu stepped out the house. The phone rung. 1. Then 2. Then 3. And then it was picked up with a deep breath seemingly Hinata who had ran to the phone already speaking through it with question and a worried voice before Chifuyu interrupted her.

"Hinata calm down it's Chifuyu, I have some news for you and need your help" Chifuyu said getting a soft gasp from her seeing as she felt on edge already that Chifuyu was calling her over Takemichis phone fearing the worst already, it could be anything right now so she had no clue what she would do if it was really bad.

"Okay....what is it Chifuyu, please tell me if he is okay" Hinata said in a soft and hesitant voice seemingly already holding her tears back as Chifuyu heard a boy voice in the back mumbling something he couldn't really hear from the phone so he quickly spoke not wanting Hinata to feel incredibly on edge.

"No Takemichi is okay and actually Wake the problem is....he doesn't remember well....,oh and some other people seemingly from the impact" Chifuyu revealed pulling it off like an old bandage leaving no sugare there to make it sound soft or not After all he need the girls help as much as he need her to calm down and agree. All he heard was soft sobs and gasps from her before a deep breath came through.

"I'm so relieved....even if he doesn't remember me....maybe....maybe it's better this way" Hinata said surprisingly making Chifuyu freeze up, he couldn't believe what he just heard after all this was Hinata, the girl Takemichi traveled time for to save her life since he had loved her so dearly and now? Now she is saying it was okay he had forgetting her! Chifuyu felt anger almost at her words after all if she didn't try making him remebere the future might be at the end, Chifuyu almost shouted at her but seeing as the girl heard his anger just from his scuffs and angry huffs he was taking Hinatas spoke again.

"Chifuyu....you must know it too don't you...that Takemichi doesn't belong here....well the mature Takemichi...I overheard him once...he was at his end Chifuyu....you might not believe me but I think" she stopped as she took a deep breath over her phone making Chifuyu tense in horror, had Hinata really found out that Takemichi was a " I think he is a fine traveler" Hinata finished for Chifuyu making him look like he saw a ghost how did the girl figure that out on her own....she over heard Takemichi? Does that mean he told her with out knowing it? And what does she mean he was at his end? Was it...what did she know he didn't.

"Tell me what you heard Hinata" Chifuyu immediately spoke trying to grasp on what was happening here how did the girl find out, and why, if she knew, was she letting Takemichi forget her! He felt so frustrated and he nearly cracked the phone whit his grip as he listened to the girls explanation taking deep breaths to keep calm and not throw the phone even, wanting to respect Takemichis belongings not like Mikey who destroyed his shit when he was fighting with Draken. Yes Takemichi told him about it.

"You believe me? What a relive....he...he was so..so broken Chifuyu mumbing about weird plans and solutions even counting his eyes were so dead...he didn't even notice me there....he..he started mumbling about wanting to die" Hinata said in a shaky voice Chifuyu practically could hear her tears over the phone at her admission off what she just said, Chifuyu froze he never knew it was this bad...he...he never tough his partner was so much hurt from the future just what futures did he see? He never knew what really happened in the futures all he knew is that some died but....what did he see? How come Chifuyu never fought that Takemichi might if seen things he never wanted....he knew one future turned out to be a mafia, had he seen things he shouldn't or worse see killing or.

Chifuyu stopped swallowing quickly what he had in his mouth to say and just stayed silent just letting those words from Hinata work into his head. How would he do this now? He needed Takemichi but did he want his partner to suffer from actually thinking about killing himself....should he just suck it up and try to fix it himself? What should he do....should he try to talk to Hinata more and tell her what he knew and ses if she would survive? Ahh it was so confusing!

"Hinata...Takemichi traveled time...for you, I won't make him remebere this....but I know what he told me....in 12 years you will die.....please for him at least stay close to Naoto and never make enemies" Chifuyu said getting a soft gasp from Hinata before he hung up having no time to speak to her anymore then this, he did not know what to do now, will he have to live in fear of the future for 12 years not knowing if this would work or should he after all try and make Takemichi remebere what was happening....maybe he could make him remebere only certain party...

Chifuyu turned to the door and went inside seeing a happy Takemichi doing a puzzle looking actually relaxed, like he had never seen before, he looked...relaxed and at peace his shoulders were down not tensed up like he was working his brain in overdrive, could he really bring it over his heart to let his best friend remember some futures that were so hard on him that he wanted to die? Would he be selfish.....

What should he do.... CHIFUYU IS NOW DROWNING IN AN INDESCRIBABLE EMPTINESS

(SORRY not SORRY I HAD TOO XD)

Chapter Text

It has been 2 days now and Chifuyu couldn't bring himself to try and make Takemichi remember, in those 2 days he noticed thing s he hasn't, how the real happiness in Tkameichis eyes looked or how relaxed one looks with out knowing the future or all his friends....he looks like a normal teenager again, like he was living life free with out any burdens. How could he break that when this was the first break he got in like, hell he didn't even know how long Takemichi has been doing this since he only knew after the boy told him everything which seemed to be already have been the middle of his adventure to the past, all he knew is that if he shook hands with Naoto that Takemichi the real past self would come back, but would that happen now with Takemichi not remembering anything? Would it work? Even if would Takemichis consciousness the one right now be send back to the future with out warning? What then? The boy would be trapped in the future. Chifuyu didn't even know what the boy saw in his last future all he knew is that Takemichi had been really on edge to really do it this time.

What if he gets send there with out anyway back since something happens to Naoto? So Chifuyu decided not to do it but did decide to at least talk to him about Mikey, since the first clue for all of this was to keep a Hinata save which he thinks he has did by telling her what will happen and making Mikey stay happy, which they haven't seen the boy yet not even Draken so they guess he went into some place to hide away for now after hearing Takemichis answer and that something that Sanzu whispered to him before they both left, Sanzu also hasn't turned up yet which is to be expected seemingly he is with Mikey as well. So here he was trying to clean up the shit just like Takemichi had done for everyone if them trying to save the future himself now to not disappoint Takemichi and let his work go to waste, after all the boy did everything even sacrificed his own life for the new future that would be able to come.

"Come on Takemichi anything yet?" Chifuyu said as they sat in Takemichis room looking at pictures they took which were from Christmas, the festival and a group picture they took with the gang where Takemichi was on it. A picture with him riding a motorcycle learning it with Mikey smiling.

"No....I really can't remember him" Takemichi said looking at the pictures as if he knew them but also didn't, he remembered being there but not with Mikey or even Draken, those 2 where no were to be seen in his memories. He just couldn't remebere anything, his mind was telling him nothing while his consciousness is telling him he is missing something, that there is a big puzzle placed in right places but many pieces were missing like he had just filled in the edges and was moving on to the inside.

"Come on Partner, you were close to him more then me, always hanging out and smiling, he even tried training you too fight" Chifuyu said as he sighed softly seeing no future ahead as of right now fearing Takemichi really wouldn't remebere the one person that need him the most right now in his life with the attack on Emma and him, with the fight coming near each day and somehow, that Mikey was Missing right now, made it a lot worse for all of them after all he was their leader. Chifuyu then got a new idea and moved to Takemichis closet looking trough it, the man was really unorganized just pushing his clothes into the closet not even bothering folding it so after 5 minutes of searching around and confusing Takemichi he found it, the old Uniform or Mikey who had gifted this to Takemichi to wear as he was their pride of the gang.

Takemichi looked at it long and hard his mind knew it very well it was his uniform a cherished uniform that made his heart beat at seeing yet he couldn't even remember where he had gotten it from but seeing as Chifuyu held it up it must be if that Mikey fellow who was very upset that he didn't seem to remember him, it was his exact size and measurements, it had a big bow to it that seemed to be way to big in his eyes but held a big importance to the gang since it showed all the hope they placed in Takemichi and the admiration they had for him as well. It just felt so familiar to Takemichi so very, very familiar. Chifuyu just looked at him expectingly waiting for him to react or say or even do anything but the blue eyed boy just looked at him slowly shaking his head as nothing came to mind, he reached out trying to touch the uniform before he blinked slowly and then smiled brightly.

"Wait! Draken gave me that! D..Draken the Draken that helped me along the way as well and that I saved on the festival" Takemichi said as his brain finally connected some dots as he remembered the day he was in the hospital after saving Draken, having the scar on his hand did help him after he had tried reaching for the uniform, having been stabbed my kiomasa and actually winning the fight getting rewarded with the uniform by Draken who told him it was from the boss but, he still couldn't recall anything from Mikey all but that he got the uniform that was before Mikey's.

"Ahh at least you remember Draken so it won't take long to remember Mikey" Chifuyu said sighing in relive that he at least managed to make Takemichi remember Draken so they weren't too far of from their goal, time is just getting really short with the fight coming up, they need to make Takemichi remember Mikey before the fight begins or there won't even be a leader at the fight with Mikey missing. Ah this was all so stressful Chifuyu just can't imagine how Takemichi was doing this all the time with out showing that he was breaking and feeling anxious. He would have to thank the boy a thousand times in some way for helping them this far. It was only tomorrow evening, they need Takemichi to remember or at least call Mikey.....

"Takemichi change of plans, tomorrow is a big fight and we need Mikey, Mikey is a bitch and vanished bc well he is a bitch, so I need you to call him okay?" Chifuyu said pointing at Takemichi who looked at him with horror in his eyes after all so far he only talked to him while ridding that motorcycle with him after that he had that harsh brust out making Takemichi a bit scared of him, so he had no clue what to even say or do, but he also felt bad for the boy.

After all he just found out he couldn't speak with his close friend who was supposed to be Takemichi who did t even know if it was true or not, so it was like a big scale on the one end is Takemichis fear and on the other is the idea that Mikey was feeling sad and even betrayed because he couldn't remember him. It was very of course where the scale would tilt too and seemed Chifuyu knew that as well so he sighed softly letting Chifuyu hand him his phone opening it with shaky hands, trying to collect his nerves that were everywhere.

"Okay you will call him Mikey-kun if that doesn't work plead with him and call him Manjiro okay?" Chifuyu said coaching him to say those name as Takemichi nodded softly before he topped over the contact on his phone looking up again with a clear hesitation. "What do I even say to him?" Takemichi hesitantly asked as he looked at Chifuyu for answers after all it seemed he knew what Takemichi need to say to make the boy come here for a chat or maybe even just show up at all since he was no where to be found.

"You will just tell him eh..." Chifuyu stopped thinking about a plan to do before he got an easy idea hopping it would actually work. "You will call him and ask him if he could come over and maybe talk about all times so he could remember him, if that doesn't work you will plead with him saying you knew that something is missing and just want to remember Mikey for good" Chifuyu said looking at Takemichi who slowly nodded feeling a bit embarrassed but also ashamed he was supposed to lure the boy here and make him talk to him, feeling like he was actually just making a trap for a gang leader he had no memories off just because a gang war was coming up, well not coming up more like it was happening tomorrow.

"The moment he says he is coming I'm leaving" Chifuyu said making Takemichi look absolutely shocked as he immediately crawled over hugging his partners leg tearing up feeling scared. "Don't do this to me Chifuyu! I don't even know the boy! What if he gets mad and attacks me!!" Takemichi said crying as Chifuyu sighed chuckling feeling actually amused at that tough, Mikey would never hurt Takemichi not ever.
(cough ignore the manga yeah?)
He wouldn't dare lay a hand on him and if he did he would regret it for the rest of his life thanks to Chifuyus, Draken and even Emma who liked Takemichi in a brotherly way now after he saved her and even before as it seemed Takemichi had saved her once from a perv as Emma put it.

"Takemitchy, Mikey would never ever hurt you, not ever. He likes you way to much to even put a scratch on you unless he is training you and trying to make you not get killed in a gang war" Chifuyu explained making Takemichi look up with that baby face making his heart melt almost, him and his stupid puppy, baby face, he could definitely see why Mikey claimed him for himself, well in a weirdly manner. Claiming someone is technically not a thing so Chifuyu couldn't carless what that man said if he cuddled with Takemichi on sleep overs.

"O...okay" Takemichi said hesitantly trusting Chifuyu on this as he took a deep breath rubbing his tears away and letting Chifuyus leg go, he then looked at the phone before pressing the contact that was out in as Mikey, Chifuyu himself felt like holding his breath just to hear the rings. 1st Ring, then the second, then the 3rd and still no answer, the there was the 4th ring and 5th. Chifuyu couldn't believe he didn't answer but thinking back it was clearly the boy tough draken was trying to call him over Takemichis phone, when the mailbox came Takemichi looked up.

"He didn't answer..." Just as Takemichi said that the phone began lighting up showing the call connected after all through came Mikey's voice sounding not hopefully but cheerful.

"Mitchy! You called...did you finally rememberme?" Mikey said through the phone actual hope coming in. You could hear cars in the phone getting picked up showing Mikey just had pulled over to answer the phone that what Chifuyu concluded at least as they out Mikey on speaker so Chifuyu knew when to book it out the house.

"Well... Not really Mikey-kun but...I would like you to come over and tell me about the olds times so I could remember something at least" Takemichi said hesitantly unsure if he was hurting the boy by admitting that he still didn't remember the boy at all, hearing no answer from the other line made him more on edge so he blabbered again.
"You don't have too! But...I just wanted to remember since I...I feel something missing in my memoy and it's bugging me" Takemichi said quickly as he felt actually panicked that he wouldn't answer and just say no, that fear came true when Mikey just hung up.

"Okay get ready! He is coming, greet him with smiled and leave the room as it is so he sees how you were trying to remeber!" Chifuyu said as he quickly grabbed his Jacket and put it on while grabbing his phone and opening the window in a quick manner confusing Takemichi, after all Mikey had hung up meaning it was a no, no?

"What do you mean....he hung up?" Takemichi said sadly and confused actually feeling like he was rejected by his crush or something since he didn't even answer at all to his question letting Chifuyu down since he didn't even manage to get the man to answer but just as Chifuyu ran to the door he said.

"No! That means he is racing over here see you later!" With that Chifuyu opened the door and booked it out running down Takemichis street and vanishing after taking a corner leaving a confused Takemichi at the door looking down the street from his door in socks, what did he mean? Did Mikey really hang up to drive down here and what did he mean by racing? That answer was quickly answered when he heard tirers screeching and Mikey turning the corner like a maniac before making a hold just a few feet away drifting almost making Takemichi stunned as he looked at the scene like he just saw a alien talk to him.

"I'm here!!" Mikey said breathless as he got of his bike in a hurry and ran over placing his hands on Takemichis shoulders with pure happiness and hope. "You really mean it? I knew I was more interesting to remember then Draken! You haven't remembered Draken right?" Mikey said as his eyes grew darker at the tough he remembered Draken before Mikey, so Takemichi immediately shook his head quickly feeling a sweat fall, he would take this secret to the grave. Mikey looked at him before smiling already pulling Takemichi to his front door

"Sh Mikey? You motorcycle" Takemichi mumbled as they reached his front door, he turned to it and pointed how it was in the middle of the road in front of his house just standing there to grab. "At least roll it behind my house so no one steals it" Takemichi said in concern earning a smile from Mikey and actual smile as he just nodded and did as Takemichi asked rolling it behind the house before returning and entering the house like it was his.

"Ah where to start! I could tell you about how we met! Or how we spent our time or the late nigh-" Mikey cought himself off seeing the pictures laying everywhere on the table in the bedroom of Takemichis and the uniform Mikey had gifted him to wear that had been made in his size just to wear, it warmed his heart seeing how hard Takemichi has seemed to try to remember him, making Mikey feel really happy, really really happy.

He could just actually throw everything away just to make Takemichi really his so no one ever tried to take this adorable man away from him, his hero that was trying to remebere him and only him right now, no one else not Kisaki not Draken not even his girlfriend Hinata. Which he didn't care about it was a good deal for him if Takemichi didn't remember her.

"Aww Mitchy I see why you need help even after all this you couldn't remember? So you need the real deal huh?" Mikey teased making Takemichi flush in embarrassment it was the that he had listened to everything Chifuyu had knew about Mikey and him and some events but he knew as well as anyone that maybe only Mikey could make him remember what actually happened in the past and how important he actually was.

"It's decided then I will stay the night here to make you remember me!" Mikey said proudly making Takemichi confused and nervous but he replayed the words of Chifuyu in his mind that Mikey would never ever hurt him, that's what Chifuyu said and he will trust Chifuyus words until the end since Mikey seemed to be happy so what did Takemichi do? He just mailed and nodded along helping Mikey settle down and getting some snacks since the man asked for some, he even had Mikey's favorite snack at home, in huge amounts. That immediately showed Takemichi just how much they actually were close too.

This night might be the most in lightening night he will ever get in his life, though he didn't remember most of it and didn't even know about it. Just how will this unfold and what will happen to the fight that Mikey was ignoring completely for some reason? Ah Takemichi will just have to see for now he sat next to Mikey as the man nibbled on his snack and began chatting his mouth away of memories.
