Chapter 30
"Hm? Isn't that Shou? Why is he standing in front of the station." Ryota said to himself as he saw a woman clinging onto Shou. "What!? I gotta see this."
As soon as Ryota saw them, he called everyone in the sixth division to Shibuya, although Yuichi, Eiko, and Hotaru came.
"Ryota is it true that Shou is on a date?" Eiko asked.
"I'm telling you he's really on a date with someone right now!"
"There they are! They went to a cafe." Yuichi pointed out.
"Let's tail them," Hotaru answered.
As they followed to the cafe, both of them seemed to have a fun, flirty conversation based on their perspective but that is not far from the truth.
"What kind of woman do you think she is?" Eiko asked.
"Who knows? In the first place, why are you concerned?" Ryota replied.
"... Because he's my comrade dumbass."
"Meh, Good point. What about you Hotaru and Yuichi."
"I was just curious what kind of girl Shou managed to pull, to think he pulled such a beauty..."
"Same here, I don't want anyone playing with my older brother's feelings."
"I see you really care about him as a brother huh."
"Naturally, he does treat me as his little sister." Hotaru's nose felt long with pride.
Suddenly as they were stalking them, they saw Hana trying to make moves on Shou, holding his hand and looking at him with lustful eyes. Like a predator looking at her prey. Of course, Shou noticed it and was flustered but paid not much heed to it other than a flirty joke. As he wasn't sure yet if he truly likes Hana or not.
"Are you certain that you don't have any ulterior motives?" Shou asked.
"Hmm... Nope, although I do want to ask where did you learn to fight and what kind of person are you, I already expected that you're not going to give me a straight answer."
"You're right but I can assure you that I have no intentions of harming you Unless you tried to harm me first."
"An eye for an eye, a Tooth for a tooth huh?"
"You could say it like that."
"Well, let's go somewhere else, We're on a date remember? So just stop being so stiff and have fun with me." Hana said as she was leaving while dragging his arm.
"Oi wait up! Stop dragging my arm, I can walk you know."
"But You're slowww."
"Shut up!"
"They're moving, Let's go" Ryota whispered.
They continued to stalk them the whole date. After going to a cafe, they went to an arcade center, then the movies, and walked around in the park. All the while Hana tries to make small moves on Shou, trying to get more intimate with him by doing activities that require large amounts of physical contact and even doing ice skating.
"I'm so fucking jealous of that guy," Ryota said in anger as they continued to stalk them.
"I have a bad feeling about that woman, Don't tell me he's trying to steal Older brother away from us?!"
"She's been really close with him the whole date. Despite Shou looking calm, the tips of his ears are bright red."
"Don't tell me, after this, they're going to do... That!?" Said Yuichi.
"No way! That's impossible." Eiko replied.
"If that ever happens. The next time I saw that guy I'm going to beat his ass." Ryota replied with jealousy.
"Look they're going off the rink, I think they're finished." Yuichi pointed.
"Tch, They've been spending time together almost the whole day," Ryota replied.
"Isn't that how dates are supposed to work?" Eiko responded to Ryota.
"... Whatever."
The two went for a stroll around Tokyo again, as dusk was starting to settle and both of them discussing where to eat for dinner, Shou still hasn't gotten used to Hana's advancements on him. As they were buying milk tea, out of nowhere, they were approached by a couple of thugs, from their expressions they seemed to have a grudge against Hana.
"Hm? Oh hey, how are you guys." Hana answered.
"Thanks to you we got scammed." Said one of the thugs.
"Ah is that so? Too bad for you guys then."
"YOU BITCH!"
Immediately he tries to shoot a cross punch to her temple, but to no luck as she manages to evade it.
"That's quite disrespectfully for someone calling a woman, a bitch."
"IT'S PERFECT FOR PEOPLE LIKE YOU!"
This time he throws a Jab but she evades it again one after another, attack after attack, she manages to evade them, but She knows that she can't just evade forever.
In a very short moment, a high kick came and struck one of the thugs that were spectating from behind.
"Jeez, What took you so long to respond, Shou-Kun."
"... No reason I was just assessing if you could handle it by yourself or not."
"Despite me being able to evade all of their attacks that doesn't mean I can counter that well!"
'Hana, Never met her in my first life but she seems interesting enough, Or maybe her plan of making me fall for her is starting to affect me.' Shou thought to himself.
"B-Bastard, that hurt!"
"Oh, you're still conscious after that? You're stronger than I thought."
"Of course, your weak ass kick isn't going to do jack shit on me since our muscles are well built, unlike you two."
"That's true but that doesn't mean you guys don't have any weaknesses."
"Then good luck finding them, if you can find them before getting beaten into a pulp!"
He shoots another strike but this time, a haymaker. "Should've used it when you're guaranteed to hit me." But it was easily evaded, without a second to hesitate, Shou immediately counters with a spinning back kick, pushing him back slightly. Followed by a stepping side kick to his abdomen. Shou grabs him by the hair and kicks him with his knee to his mouth. Most of his teeth and blood flew out of his mouth. All in quick succession.
"Argh!!! You fucking asshole!"
"..."
Shou finishes him off with a 540° kick to his temple that sent him flying five yards away, Knocking him completely unconscious.
"Well then, Who's Next?"
"Geh! You're just a bunch of nobodies once we gather all of our guys here and unfortunately for you we already prepared for that and bought all of our forces to teach you a lesson."
"..."
"What's wrong!? Are you scared!? Now that you're outnumbered huh!?" The thug laughed in a maniacal way. Taunting.
"Not really, Besides I-" Shou was quickly cut off by a familiar voice.
"I'll take it from here."
