Yachi.

I wake up in a room that looks like the school nurse's office. In front of me is Toya's brother. Katsu and his ridiculous costume.

I laugh seeing him from when he was, I think 6 years old. His BFF Katsuki too. They've been glued at the hip since kindergarten.

"What the hell did you do?!"

Someone yells from behind me. I turn my head and squint my eyes, "Toya?" I ask not sure.

"That's my dad. Ehh!!!!" Cat exclaims holding his clothes up.

"That's what you get for dressing stupid." Katsuki comments with his arms crossed, his large shirt looking like a wedding gown. His fashion sense has always been on the move with the times.

"No matter, you're alright, so back to your cell." Heartless Tensei as always.

Always hated this old man. It's always duty first with this guy, there was a time I wanted to rip his out for ripping Toya's apart. If he died instead of Toya's mother he would be so different.

He would never be so fucked up. He's a pretty decent human being when he gets around to the idea of wanting to be one, he's just always on edge his father is close to getting him.

Toya has always been a paranoid guy, the only thing that scares him, is his father.

Tensei.

I arrive at home and everyone is looking at me like I just came home with three heads, "Why are you all looking at me like that."

"Toya!!" My daughter hugs me and I clear my throat, "Ohh, I'm so glad your home. I nearly turned you room into a home office." She adds and I cock a brow.

"I am not Toya, and what did you say about turning my room into an office. Shouldn't you be living in your own house at your age Katsumi?"

"This is so embarrassing; your sister will never go out with me now." Katsuki complains wearing my grand children's clothes. My son squeezed into a cat costume he found at the station.

This is all his mother. I blame her for his defective personality.

I walk to my room and today she looks better. She's even stronger as well.

She sits up and smiles at me, "Morning dear."

"How are you feeling? For months now you've been bed ridden. Katsumi has been taking care of you."

"Katsumi? Where, I haven't seen her around."

She must still have the image of young Katsumi in her mind. She's a grown woman now, you would be proud, "Well, there's much to be discussed. We'll talk about it as a family."

"Of course. I am famished. Shall I make you something?"

"No, Katsumi is already done." Like I said, much to discuss.

I walk into the mansion and Kendo is with Rin preparing the capsules. These capsules are the reason we had to wait so long. They are not so easy to find.

Rin arrives with a long face.

"Wipe that stupid schmuck off your face, what are you sad about." Kendo asks setting up the cave.

"Something happened with Rei yesterday. She was having dramatic seizures the entire day. One of the clocks had disappeared but now it's back. It's the second one. My spy on the inside said that Yachi was also having the exact same dramatic seizures.

"The second clock represents Kaiya, I don't know what happened, but apparently Yachi had a sudden surge of power, similar to Rei's burst, and aged an entire prison of people back in time, literally everyone except herself. The entire staff. Prisoners and everything."

Seriously?

I turn on the news and laugh my head off seeing Cat in his pink cat costume. Didn't he wear that thing in kindergarten.

We all have a good laugh before paying attention.

"So? What do you plan to do with the prisoners?" The reporter asks the chief of police.

~

"Dude, I was so looking forward to his retirement. This old coot is sticking around in the force?" Jin complains and I can relate to that. This guy has been a thorn at our side for the longest time ever.

All the Yakuza were making big moves waiting for when he finally retires, now all our plans are going to shit. What a crappy turn of events.

~

"Well, in the same way my retirement was revoked due to appearance, all these criminals by law cannot be kept here, yes they are still the same criminals with the same minds and will, but physically they are all children." Tensei says but is interrupted by the two toddlers behind him.

"What? No way. I did not go through puberty just go through it again. I worked hard to get a fair shot in the force. How I look does not erase my past work. See, I have a job, I am a full-grown adult." Katsu says.

~

I try to keep it together, but Kendo explodes laughing creating a chain reaction.

~

Katsuki laughs at him rolling on the floor.

"You're on the same road dumbass!" Katsu exclaims.

"Look, It's probably temporary. Let's not freak out." Katsuki says.

Katsu punches him in the face, "It's permanent! I have to grow up all over again!"

They start fighting and I really can't stop laughing. The news in this country is more entertaining than dramas I must say.

"They cannot stay in a prison, just like you cannot be officers. We will need to discuss what to do with them. I have no further answers on the matter." He replies walking away.

"I am not going back to school old man, you got that?" Katsuki says following behind Tensei who smiles.

"That's a genius idea, what better prison for delinquents than school."

"Dad, you just said that on national television. That school is prison."

Tensei glares at his son, "Do not twist my words around Katsu I did not say that. You two are just as much delinquents. You will attend the school with them."

"Never!!!!" Katsuki runs away and Tensei picks him walking away while he Katsuki throws a raging tantrum.

"Bastard reminds me so much of Toya. I want to kill him for it." Rin says holding up the large syringe with that Raena girl's blood, "I'll give her a shot of this, we'll see if it will wake her up, or what."

"Cool." I add. It's my duty to make sure I do not run the boss's operations into the ground. I have to keep going with the plan.

I head out to the Domei and luckily, they never knew who the real boss was. Unlike the Hanafuda that have split after Kai's death. Kendo is all that's left. Luckily, he's doing a good job at keeping it moving.

I'll be moving some of the Domei to move the product. Uniting the two groups sounds like a better plan right now.

Some of the men have gone after the Ise. I have every intention of letting every last one of those Ise punks pay for what they've done.

Boss loved no one more then his children. To have killed them before his very eyes, I will make sure the Ise do not get away with this crap story that they were brain washed, no way in hell.

Not while I'm still here.

"Yow Boss, what's good?"

"I need some brave men, men who can work even when times are this rough. No leaving trails back to us, no evidence, no deaths, none of that."

"That's what Canvas is for. Whatever you need done with those requirements, she's your woman."

"Good, we're moving this new Hanafuda product on the market. Make it fast and clean. That's all."

"Got the full message loud and clear boss, any round tables required?"

"Nah, will draw too much attention. We don't know who they've got their eyes on and who they don't. We work strictly and exclusively with the Hanafuda. Anyone ask for alliance, pretend we disbanded. We can't trust anyone anymore."

"Sure, thing boss."
