The group of four enjoyed the aquarium for the rest of the day. Mio was still a little disgruntled but Eizan did his best to cheer her up. Eizan and Ome were walking together and the two girls were walking in front. The two girls were whispering something that they could not hear. Ome looked at Eizan. “Man, that little incident really made her unhappy huh.”
Eizan sighed. “I bet she’s still upset. It’s not like I’ve done anything wrong though. She already knew about Minami.”
Ome shook his head. “She really stirred things up didn’t she.” Ome sighed and stared at Eizan. “Is she an ex-girlfriend?”
Eizan shook his head and frowned. “No, she was my childhood friend. Actually, you’ve heard about her too. I just never told you, her name.”
Ome all of a sudden had a serious expression. “Is she the one from the incident?”
“Yeah, we grew up together. But we never had that kind of relationship. She dated my best friend. I was supportive of their relationship.”
Ome put a hand on his head. “Well, it seems like she wants to start a relationship again with you. Are you alright with that?”
Eizan looked up at the slowly darkening sky above him. “I don’t know.”
Ome and Eizan were to focused on today’s events to notice that they were being followed. Two teen boys were following them. One of the boys was talking to someone on their cellphone. “They’re almost there. What do you want us to do?”
“Just let me know if they change course. They should be headed towards the station now.” Towa hung up the phone. He peaked around the corner of alley. He then turned back towards a group of young men standing behind him standing in front of a car. “Alright, here’s the deal. We’re going to kick the crap out of the two guys, rob them if you want, and take the women. Put the two girls in the back of the car and we’ll take them to our hideout.”
They men all stared at him with mischievous grins. “Can we do whatever we want to them?”
Towa smiled evilly. “The brunette is mine. You can have fun with the other one later tonight.”
The men started laughing. Towa got a cold look on his face. “Alright, I’ll leave the rest to you guys. I’ll be waiting in the car.” Towa got into the passenger side of the car that was facing down the alleyway.
Eizan and Ome were chatting behind the girls. Eizan for some reason started to get a weird feeling. “Hey, does something feel off to you?”
Ome frowned. “Yeah, I can’t put my finger on it though.”
“I have a bad feeling about this.”
All of a sudden as Ren and Mio who were a few steps in front of them passed the alley four boys jumped out and grabbed them and five others stepped out all holding various blunt weapons. Eizan yelled. “Mio.”
The group of guys all had evil grins on their faces as a few more stepped out of the alleyway. Mio and Ren were struggling. Ren yelled. “Let go of me.”
Mio had a terrified look on her face as she stared at Eizan. “Help.”
Eizan and Ome both took fighting stances. Eizan got a cold look in his eyes. “What do you want?”
A fit looking guy with a bat in his hand laughed. “Were going to rob you. He glanced back at the two good looking girls behind them. “We might want to spend some time with your two little companions too. Don’t worry we’ll treat them right.”
Ome and Eizan’s stares both turned blood thirsty. Eizan growled. “This is your last chance to let them go.”

The man holding the bat sneered. “Or what?”
Eizan and Ome both bolted forward at unbelievable speeds as the girls were dragged into the alleyway. A bat came barreling at Eizan’s head and he dodged underneath it. He swiftly punched the man in his stomach, making him drop his bat. The man basically folded in half as he was hit. Ome took out the guy next to him with a kick to the face toppling him to the ground. Two of the seven guys in front of them were dropped in seconds.
Eizan’s mind went completely blank. His eyes were completely cold as he dropped the next guy with and elbow to the head after dodging a chain that was swung at him. Eizan didn’t know this because he always thought his father was faster and stronger than him, but he was actually much faster and stronger that Itsuki. He only lost because he couldn’t get past his own visions of his father from his childhood. When Eizan stopped thinking he was deadly and Itsuki knew this. Ome on the other hand had trained at his family dojo that had been perfecting martial arts for generations. He had trained almost everyday of his life. Ome’s face was filled with anger. They dropped two more before the two of the exploited a gap in the group of shocked delinquents in front of them. They bolted into the alley just in time to watch a car pull away.
Eizan stopped and frowned as he watched the car pull away. Ome yelled “Get the fuck back here.” He ran after the car a few meters before stopping. Eizan on the other hand had already turned back towards the group of individuals standing behind him. His cold murderous stare sent shivers down their spines.
He took a step forward confidently. In a deep cold voice that anyone could have felt murderous intent from he said. “Which one of you is going to tell me where they are being taken.” He took another step forward.
A big guy with a small scar over his left eye stepped forward. “Like hell we will tell you.”
Eizan got a wry smile. “I guess I’m just going to have to break every bone in your body until someone fesses up.” Ome stepped next to Eizan with an extremely angry look on his face. Eizan shifted his gaze towards Ome. “I’m going right you go left and try not to kill anyone.”
Ome chuckled angrily. “I’ll try. But I won’t guarantee it.” Ome sneered at the group in front of him. “If one hair on Ren’s head is hurt by you bastards I will hunt you down for the rest of your lives.” His murderous aura made a few of them flinch.
Before the group of delinquents could even react, Eizan had closed the gap again. Ome was right beside him. The large man at the front felt his knee bend at an unnatural angel as Eizan kick struck it. He yelled out in pain as a blow landed on the back of his neck knocking him unconscious. Ome landed an uppercut on the man to Eizan’s left sending him stumbling back into the guys behind them.
The group of man were too shocked to react and were all laying on the ground in half a minute. They were completely overwhelmed by two trained martial artists. They were common street thugs and had no real experience fighting. Sure, they had a few bouts with rival gangs but they were also untrained individuals. The difference in fighting prowess was evident. The difference between untrained and trained fighters is an overwhelming gap. Most people don’t know how big the difference is. While there are some people who are natural fighters the vast majority do not know how to really fight. To the two angry boys it was like two grown men picking on toddlers.
Eizan picked up the smallest of the group of attackers by his shirt off the ground. He smacked him across the face. “Tell me where they were taken.”
The man smirked and spit on Eizan’s shirt. “Fuck you.”
Eizan smiled an evil smile. “He grabbed the boys pinky finger on his left hand and snapped it like a twig.” The boy yelled in pain as he felt the bone in his finger snap. Eizan stared at him coldly. “If you want to keep your fingers tell me the address.” The boys’ eyes widened in fear as he rattled off an address. Just as the boy told him the address a black car with four individuals wearing plain clothes stopped at the end of the alleyway. Ome tensed up as he saw the car. Eizan chuckled at Ome’s reaction. “Don’t worry they’re on our side.” A handsome middle-aged man stepped out of the car and bowed towards Eizan. “Your late.” Eizan said with a small smile.
“Sorry we got here as fast as we could.”
Eizan sighed. “Put him in the trunk and have the other two watch these guys. We will deal with them later. We need to make sure he was telling us the truth.” He tossed the guy he had a hold of towards the man making the boy stumble and fall onto his face.
The handsome looking man picked the boy up with an evil smile. “You fucked with the wrong person.”
The boy stared at him in utter disbelief and terror. “I’m telling the truth there is no reason to take me with you.”
The man just laughed. “It’s the young master’s decision not mine. Just hope those two don’t get hurt. Otherwise, I’m not sure what will happen to you all.” He glanced at the group of delinquents who were groaning and slowly getting regaining consciousness. “I hope for all your sakes those two girls are fine.”
Two other large men stepped out of the back of the car and walked towards the group on the ground. Eizan looked at Ome who had a weird look on his face. “Let’s go. We need to get to them before anything happens.” Ome nodded and both of them proceeded to get in the back of the car.
