When Times Change

Part 1

It was a beautiful day, like any other in Shibuya. Takemichi would return from the past, praying and hoping whatever he did worked and sure enough it did. This made the blonde happy. He would go see he's friends one by one to make sure they are ok before skipping to go see Naoto, telling him what happened. He would sit there and listen while also supporting the smiling sunshine in front off hime but behind that smile Naoto was sad, he was keeping a dark secret from he's brother figure. He wanted to tell Takemichi but it was he's and he's sisters life on the line so he plastered a smile on he's face. Praying Takemichi never finds out.

Sadly one rainy day it all went down hill, Takemichi came back from the past but wasn't he's normal self. Naoto waited for him with a smile like he always does, expecting to see the smile he is always blessed with but not today. Takemichi appeared with no smile but a frown. Confused he walked over and placed he's right hand on the boys shoulder, this startled him so he looked up only to find Naoto with a shocked face. He's eyes widen as he stares back to the once smiling and cheerful blonde, standing before him was like a whole different person. Without thinking the black haired boy grabs he's face making the boys eyes widen in shock and confusion "Takemichi your eyes..what happened?" He asked but got no response. After sighing he shook he's head before plastering a smile on "nothing happened Naoto, I'm fine...." He paused trying to figure out something else to say "all off this has been for them remember, it always will be so don't worry". He spoke with the softest voice he could muster as he removes the younger boys hands from he's face before turning around and walking away.

Standing there know in silence, watching the boy walk away before he's figure finally disappears out off view. 'Please....don't hate us' he thought, slowly looking up at the sky 'I wanted to tell you....but I had to keep me and Hina safe' he thought once more as not only tear slowly stream down he's face but the beginning off a small shower of rain.

With Takemichi

Everywhere he looked he could not find the people he called friends. He checked the small pet shopped Chifuyu, Baji and Kazutora owned but they were closed, witch was strange since they never close this early "what the?" He scratched he's head confused before shrugging it off and heading to D&D witch was Drakens and Inupi's bike shop but yet again the sign said 'Closed'. Slowly the feeling off panic started to set in, what if he messed up? What if they are all dead? More questions like that emerged in he's head so like the flash he whipped out he's phone and was about to call anyone off them when the date caught he's attention. "Monday" he spoke before it finally hit him "Right Monday's are meeting days" he smacked himself as he put the phone back in he's pocket before proceeding towards the headquarters off Mikey and the gang. Not long after he got there he wiped the rain from he's forehead before choosing to take the stairs 'need to stay fit' he told himself but he just wanted to surprise he's friends. It took him a while but he managed to get to the floor he needed, completely out off breath and about to drop dead but he didn't stop. To excited to see he's friends. He got to the door shortly after but saw it slightly ajar 'they started without me' he thought so he just stopped and listened, hoping to hear something good.

"Bro, this is amazing" a very cheeky and upbeat voice rang through the room 'Baji' he thought with a smile. "Dam right it is, we can do whatever we want and won't be found out all thanks to him" another voice rang out, just as cheerful before another chimes in but a bit more sad "guys listen, haven't we done enough, shouldn't we stop..." the voice pauses before continuing "you know I wasn't meant to tell you" he couldn't make out the first voice but the second and more sad one was clearly Chifuyu "oh come on Chifuyu, it's a good thing you told us. We would never have guessed Takemichi had time leaping powers" Kazutora chimes in with a small laugh at the end off what he said, Takemichi froze out off shock and horror at what this man has just said 'he...he told them about me, but that was meant to be a secret' he thought to himself as he felt betrayed by someone he thought he could trust. This went on for a while before something said caught Takemichi's attention bringing him out he's own thoughts "come on guys think about it, it's good we got someone as oblivious as him with a power like that" Takemichi's eyes widen as tears pricked he's eyes "this means we can mess up as much as we want and he will fix it but not just that he won't ever know" the voice laughs while others join in. What hurt Takemichi the most was that this came from Mikey, another person he thought he was close with. This hurt so much he started to cry even if he didn't want too.
