Second Ground, Raira Academy

"So what was the rumpus all about today?"

Asked Yumasaki. After hesitating for a moment where to begin, Kadota sighed and said:

"…Well, we can talk about that over dinner."

The delinquents had fled, and the gang of Toramaru members had broken up on Chikage's orders. Only Kadota's lot remained behind in this place where there had been some forty people fighting until just now. The girls, after running to a safer place, had left as well. They had said that they would alert the police of the kidnapping attempt, so the men lying unconscious beside the fence would probably get taken away soon as well.

"Speaking of which, we'll be in trouble ourselves if we don't leave before the cops get here…should we go to Simon's place?"

"Ah, I think Russian Sushi is closed for this evening."

"What, for real?"

Kadota's shoulders sank slightly. Karisawa suggested:

"Should we go to the Taiwanese place next to Russian Sushi then? The one right above the game center."

"Ah, you mean the one close to the bowling place…? Good idea. Too bad I forgot to ask Chikage to come with us."

Kadota muttered. Just as the decision seemed agreed upon and the conversation about to be finished, Karisawa said something unnecessary.

"Speaking of which, it seems like Dotachin's been nurturing some kind of friendship with that Chikage person after the fight!"

"The way you talk creeps me out. If you're trying to say something, just say it."

"Then I'll just say it! For me it's just one of those 'Thanks for the BL fantasy bait, it was delicious!' moments!"

"…Looks like there are things I'll have to kill you to make you understand."

Kadota sounded like he was trying hard to fight back his indignation. Yumasaki, on the other hand, began to criticize Karisawa's opinion in a loud voice.

"Kariwasa-san…! It's all because of people like Karisawa-san who pair guys up every time they see two guys fight or make friends with each other! You're the reason so many animes are trolled and called fujoshi-pandering shit just because they've got more male characters than female ones! Serious reflection! I demand some serious reflection on your part!"

"Eh - ! But if you really want to, even inanimate objects are shippable with each other - ! Speaking of which, there had been a shitstorm just recently about which one is the OTP between CD x DVD and DVD x CD......"

"Just shut up already! It's not like the flow of your conversation even makes sense!"

For Kadota's lot, life had already returned to normal.

His swollen eye and bleeding mouth were still giving him quite a bit of pain, but Kadota was not looking like he regretted it even in the slightest. 

Just as the others gathered to discuss whether the dinner should be on Kadota or if they should split the bill, Yumasaki saw Anri - who was wandering around aimlessly - and called out to her.

"Ah, Anri-chan, you wanna go eat with us?"

Yumasaki had barely finished asking when Karisawa, who had at some point positioned herself behind Anri, put her arms around Anri's body. 

"Kyah - !?"

"That reminds me! I have a lot of stuff to ask Anri-chan today!"

Her hands busy exploring different parts of Anri's body, Karisawa grinned.

"Where have you been keeping that katana? Are you really a Flame Haze? Or just a beauty in glasses who happens to enjoy cosplaying? Or a stacked-up anthropomorph of the Demon Blade Muramasa?"

"Hey, cut it out you Sexual Harassment Queen."

Kadota pulled Karisawa away form Anri. Looking at Anri's troubled face, Karisawa chuckled and said:

"Well, if you don't want to tell, you don't have to! Every girl has a secret or two."

"That's so true. Even if Anri-chan is a demon queen planning to take over the world, we're pretty sure we'll continue to treat you just like how we've treated you all along! In fact, I personally would want to get even more intimate with you if you're indeed a demon queen in glasses…!"

Yumasaki's speech was cut off since his mouth was covered by other members' hands. Kadota ignored him and turned towards Anri.

"What's up? Are you looking for something?"

"Ah…I'm sorry…!"

Anri lowered her head in haste and looked around before muttering:

"I…can't find Mikado-kun…"

On a street beside the Second Ground

"Hey, Rocchi, are you sure your injuries are OK?"

"Ah - , I’m totally fine. Since you fondled them they’re actually already healed, Non."

"Liar. Seriously, Rocchi, I can't wait to see Kiyopuu and the others get mad at you again tomorrow."

Non pouted. Chikage laughed and replied:

“You and Kiyopuu and the others will probably forgive me if I kiss you, won't you?”

"I think it would be better if you died once, Rocchi."

The flirtatious dialogue continued as they walked on a small road heading to the Station. 

Chikage ordered the Toramaru members to return to Saitama. It seemed that some of them were beaten while trying to avenge the previous defeat at the abandoned factory, but the ones who remained unhurt had brought those men back with them. Chikage told Kadota that they would just call it a day for today.

The couple walked on in an atmosphere in which virtually no trace of the animosity that had been filling the air until a moment ago remained - 

From behind them they heard a voice that still sounded somewhat like a little boy's.

"P-Please wait a second!"

"Hm…?"

Chikage and Non turned around to find a boy standing there with his body injured in places, almost out of breath.

"What’s up? Did you need something, kid? You on your way home from a fight or something?"

Chikage couldn’t tell if he was talking to a boy in middle school or high school just by looking at his face. Not knowing what the kid was after, he stopped walking and turned towards the boy.

The boy, on the other hand, looked at Chikage with clearly determined eyes despite his blotched and pale face. Slowly, he opened his mouth.

"…I…I am fully responsible for this."

"Huh? For what?"

Toramaru's leader looked surprised. Mikado was about to continue when - 

"Ah, Rocchi! He's the kid I was telling you about! He’s also a Dollars member, yet he tried to save me!"
