"I'm here and I you that I'll protect you no matter what, so don't listen to Manjiro's voice but mine, and just hang on a little bit, 'kay?"

Haruchiyo raised his head, enough just to see at least a small peak of the face of the person that told him comforting words in soft and gentle voice.

'When I learned that time leaping was real, I started to look back on the days where [Y/n] would appear.'

The young boy wondered on how could a kid not shed a single tear or at least show a hint of fear despite getting injured and having blood trail down to her chin.

'Not by coincidence but felt like she knew it was going to happen whether she'd arrive a bit late or on time...'

All he could see was the concern in her [e/c] eyes and how gentle her expression looked along with the heartwarming smile she showed to him as well as the way how warm and comforting her hug was that it eased him a bit as he leaned forward to her.

'Like this day.'

With thick and heavy tears pouring of his eyes as his mouth hurt so much, Shinichiro arrives. He came running towards the scene with a loud shout of his young brother's name.

Haruchiyo felt his friend's arms loosening around him and he wanted to say something but he froze on his spot when he caught a glimpse of the pained look on her face before seeing her fall on the ground with a thud.

'And when I finally connected all the dots, I've come to a conclusion that [Y/n]...'

"Hey there, Hero."

[Y/n] crouches down to the same height of a little boy who's a year younger than her, a 10 year old kid who has bandages on his face and is lying on the ground with his stomach.

"You know, I still feel pretty bad about the things I told you in the previous loop but no matter how many times I think about it, there's no good in being a hero." she stopped and closed her mouth with a small hum as she pondered about something first while being unaware of a third party's presence.

'May be a time leaper like Shinichiro.'

"Sacrificing yourself for the sake of others..." She mumbled after taking a deep breath as a genuine smile which reached her eyes was now present on her face.

'...I had many questions even when I learned that.'

With a sigh coming from her, she says. "Despite that, I still understand the reason why." Then a chuckle next as she adds,

"You'd do anything for the people you love, right?"

"Huh???" The little boy – Takemichi Hanagaki, his confusion only increased.

Who could blame him?

One moment he was walking then the next he was on the ground since he tripped and when he was about to stand up, some random girl that's strange or probably crazy approached him and started to say some nonsensical words...

But the thing is, are they nonsensical things?

"That's why I've come to a decision that I'll let you be my side kick this time instead of being the main hero, okay?" The girl continued and ignored Takemichi's quizzical and weird looks that he's clearly shooting at her.

'How come she didn't tell Shinichiro? Did she not know or does she not trust him enough...?'

"This time, I promise you that I really won't break this promise."

[Y/n]'s lips stretched from ear to ear once more as she pats the boy's head gently. Her smile was so affectionate and sincere like her words no matter how much they don't make any sense to him.

'Since she's a time leaper does that mean she also killed a person like how Shinichiro did?'

"You'll live a happy life with the girl you love." She stands up and held out her hand which the boy took with a little bit of hesitancy. "I'll give it my all again."

'And because she time leaped through time, she obviously has someone she needs to save...'

And so, the black haired boy watches the strange girl walk away. He continued to stare, clearly now in a daze even though the figure of the person he talked to moments ago was nowhere to be seen.

It was such an odd experience, especially when Takemichi felt a sense of familiarity to the [h/c] girl.

"I promise you, you'll get your happy ending for real this, Takemitchy."

While he was trying to process the things what the [h/c] girl said to him, he shook his head and tried to forget this crazy event instead as he starts to walk away making for Haruchiyo to come out of his hiding, looking like he has many things in his mind.

'Is the one she needs to save?'

Back to the present time, Haruchiyo glances at a certain blonde boy.

'He doesn't remember [Y/n] doesn't he?' He gives the time leaper blonde a skeptical look before turning his gaze away.

'And it doesn't seem like there's...only person she needs to save.' Haruchiyo shifts his green eyes on the smiling [Y/n] after he also glanced at Keisuke for a second or two.

"Anyways, I'm taking my leave first." The girl announced after rummaging through her bag for her phone to check the time. "I need to pick Akio up on Wakasa's gym."

Closing her phone with one hand, she noticed how red the knuckles of her right hand was. She felt a stinging pain but didn't really care about it as she only stared at it with a blank expression.

She always knew in the back of her mind that she wasn't that weak – physically.

Despite that, she's still someone who's not skilled in combat fighting...

Or maybe she is...

Who knows?

For all she knows right now is that she has some type of knowledge about fighting but can't exactly use it the right way.

That's why she talked to Wakasa before about training her which would start tomorrow morning since the fight's over now and that's what they've agreed on.

...And for all she knows is that as of lately, she's continuously having not only those creepy dreams but also weird visions.

They just keep on popping up.

And those said dreams will be talked about for another more time.

[Y/n] shakes her head when she felt a heavy feeling in her chest. When she was bout to bid her friend good bye, she stopped. "Ah, right. Before I leave."

All eyes came to look at her since they saw her kick Keisuke on the leg which earned a grunt from him while Chifuyu's eyes turned wide just like his partner, Takemichi.

While the ravenette was muttering profanities under his breath, [Y/n] pulled him by his collar. It made everyone think they'll see their female friend in action again by beating the boy up, but no.

"Don't you dare do this kind of thing again in the future." She whispered, voice deep and low as a visible frown could be seen on her face while bronze eyes stares straight into her [e/c] ones.

He saw the anger but with a hint of worry in them.

He felt the corner of his lips twitching up and itching to show a smile but because of what he heard, his lips went agape and his eyes slightly widened instead.

Keisuke sees [Y/n] shift her eyes to Kisaki for a second then back to him. "I don't think we're thinking of the right person — the culprit behind all of this, but still..."

His expression that softened for a moment ago because of the person close to him became sharp due to the words that was whispered to his ears in a firm voice.

"Dig what you can and tell me, too."

When Baji was about to say something, [Y/n] had already let the collar of shirt go and was already facing the other to bid them good bye with a graceful smile plastered on her feature.

"Can I come with you?" Mikey asked with expectant eyes while [e/c] looks at him, no emotion or whatsoever shown in her face.

"No." [Y/n] rejects which caused for the blonde boy to turn glum and make Izana to sneer at his younger brother's misery.

"Aw, come on!" Mikey shouted, a cute pout now on his face as he wrapped his arms around [Y/n]'s waist which annoyed several people in the group.

"I wanted you to treat my wounds and hopefully kiss them!" with the boy's childish whining, Izana pulls him away, clearly exasperated.

"Why would she even wanna kiss your disgusting wounds?" The white haired boy glowered. He pushed Mikey on the side as his left arm found its way on the female's waist while the older Haitani watches in clear amusement.

Ran has that annoying but charming smirk on his face and it only turned wide when he heard his scowling brother huff.

"Because [n/n] is my future wife!" Exclaimed their president with a huff making Draken to grimace as he already feels the headache slowly creeping its way to his head.

"Since when did I agree to that?" [Y/n] retorts with a groan while she feels the arm of Izana tightening the grip around her waist.

"See? She doesn't even remember that bullshit." He growled at his brother like some kind of an alpha wolf that's protecting its mate...

"Did Kazutora hit your head that hard for you start making that kind of crap?" He sneers at Mikey just to mock him further. "You should hurry to the hospital and get your head checked, Mikey."

With Izana's frown deepening as well as Manjiro, they start to glare at each other that electric sparks felt like being seen due to their intense staring contest.

While that happens, the girl between them could only remain quiet and look so done as she internally question herself.

How did it get this?

She was already about to leave since she already told her farewell to her friends...ah, that's right.

It's Mikey's fault.

If only that short boy just stayed quiet and didn't whine about wanting to come so he could get himself treated all while receive some kisses too from her and act all lovey dovey or something...

By the end of the statement, those were simply just something that a few people imagined and make their own self angry with jealousy.

How...hilarious.

"When we were eleven!" Mikey breaks away from the staring contest to shout that. "I told you this before, [n/n]! It hasn't even been that long since I told you about this again."

Puffing his cheeks, he turns his head to face a boy with glasses.

"You were there, too, Kisaki! Help me shake [n/n]'s memory."

Tetta glances at the [h/c] female before pushing his glasses up back to its place. "[Y/n] did say that you were annoying her then."

"Heh. Even the person you sought for help doesn't agree with you." Izana says through a smirk and taunting gaze as he was now a side hugging [Y/n] just to add more fuel to his opponent's flaming anger.

Draken scrunched his nose in distaste. He felt a strong sense of deja vu because of the sight before him.

Not only him but Kakucho, too, since they exchanged knowing but tired looks.

This scene already happened probably hundreds of times the moment those two step siblings – Izana accepted Mikey to be his brother, his family.

But despite that, they quarrel each other as if it's an everyday thing that everyone in their group would always just watch in pure entertainment since the insults they'd throw at each other is funny.

As long as they don't throw fists or kicks at one another like their younger days then it's fine.

...Yeah, not for Draken and Kakucho.

They often accompany their perspective leaders in wherever they go whether it's voluntary or not.

With that said, it means Draken and Kakucho both have to witness and hear the siblings fight that sometimes (a lie) hurt and feel as if their ears would start bleeding or feel like second hand embarrassment is slowly eating them up.

And so, this particular latest memory that stands out the most among the other memories they have that happened was from months ago.

The time when they'd have those frequent visits to their [h/c] friend who suddenly fell into a coma for still an unknown reason 'til this day.

Draken first remembered the terror and how heartbroken Mikey's face looked when they both rushed to hospital right after learning the news from Youko, [Y/n]'s mother the next day after the teen was admitted in the hospital.

And since then, he'd accompany his friend every single day for almost an entire week to visit the female which Izana and Kakucho would tag along.

Thanks to those siblings, Draken would forget his worries as stress would fill his entire body due to the second hand embarrassment he'd feel.

Mikey would tell a story and if Izana finds something to comment about, he'd do it in a heartbeat which would lead for another fight that the nurse that was assigned to the sleeping [Y/n] would have to hush them no matter how afraid she was to do so.

The hospital didn't had the guts to ban the four or any one of the delinquents because they found them all terrifying...

With a deep sigh, the dragon tattooed male strode his way towards the three teens. "Alright, break it up you two."

"Izana..." Kakucho lets a sigh as well after taking a few steps to get closer. He stood from behind the white haired while Draken is on Mikey's.

"You're making [Y/n] uncomfortable."

"Don't get involved, Ken chin."

"Shut up, servant."

Hearing the two males speak simultaneously made Draken's brow to twitch down.

"If you're gonna fight at least let go of [Y/n]." He told them while being evidently vexed.

"I said don't get involved." Mikey shoots his Vice President a deadly look and that only aggravated his friend.

"How can't I get involved?!" Draken snapped as he felt like being lost for words, though only for about a second. "Look at [Y/n]! She clearly looks done with you two fighting like this every time!!"

"Draken, calm down." Kakucho advised with his brows now furrowed while the tall blonde turned his head at him and pointed his forefinger to a certain girl.

"How can I calm down?! Look at [Y/n]! She looks like a fucking lifeless doll!!"

Kakucho glances at the said girl and said, "I mean you aren't wrong but why are you getting angry and shouting at me when I'm trying to help you, too?"

"Look at them go." Mitsuya comments while scratching the back of his head with a light chuckle.

"Yeah..." Souya muttered, his head turning to face his brother. "Should we help them?"

A laugh comes from his peach haired brother that was grinning from ear to ear. "Nah. I wanna see if [Y/n] would get mad since we don't usually see her angry." Replied the cackling Smiley.

"Besides, even if we try to help we'll probably just end up starting to fight like them, too, so let's just watch from the sidelines."

"[Y/n] will solve this by herself anyways so let's just watch like Smiley said." Mucho spoke as well while Haruchiyo silently nods his head to agree with his Captain's words.

"...Let's just step in unless necessary." Hakkai murmured before taking his phone out to check who messaged him.

Of course it was Yuzuha, thankfully. She was asking if him and his Toman friends are gonna crash at the [L/n] household to celebrate or something so she could join in too as obviously all of the girls would be there.

Hakkai responds with a short, 'I'll ask.'

"Taka-chan." He tapped Mitsuya's shoulder after slightly leaning down. "Can you ask [Y/n] later after they've all cooled down if we're gonna celebrate another victory at her house since Yuzuha's asking, too."

The boy in question simply nods his head. "Yeah, sure."

"Aren't you all tired?" Takemichi sniffles with his shoulders slumping down while the others were chuckling or laughing. "I don't know about you guys but I wanna go home and rest. My body hurts all over..."

"Ugh, he's crying again." Rindou mumbled to himself with narrowed eyes. "Everyone's so fucking annoying..."

Ran chuckles at his brother who's frowning deeply more than usual.

He pokes the younger Haitani's cheek with a lazily grin and said, "Wouldn't hurt to admit that you're just jealous, Rin-Rin."

"Don't call me that." He snarled. "And what or who exactly would I even be jealous about, huh? Stop annoying me too, Ran."

Rindou turned his on the other side after crossing his arms in front of his chest. "There's nothing here but pure nonsense. Let's just go home already."

"Sure. Admit that you're jealous first." Ran replies through a sweet and radiant smile just to provoke his brother.

Rindou grits his teeth as he finally had enough. "I told you, I'm not jealous of Izana!" He huffed after his outburst while his older brother starts to snicker and slowly show a wicked smile.

"Who said that it was Izana I'm talking about, hm?"

With wide eyes, the young Haitani finally realizes what he said after three seconds passed and mutters to himself a certain swear word.

"Shit."

Chifuyu watches in disbelief as certain amount of people were bickering back and forth now even though it was just Mikey and Izana from the start.

When the he was about to say a comment about the current situation, he saw a glimpse of a person with long black hair pass him.

"Stop insisting that [Y/n]'s your fiancée!!" Keisuke exclaimed after coming to a decision to step in as he couldn't take the sight of two men fighting with their hands or arms around the [h/c] girl anymore.

Chifuyu's look of disbelief doubled but it only lasted for a second since it's his commander he's talking about so he should've at least expected for this to happen but...

He turned his head to face Takemichi. "I have no clue what's happening and all I wanna do now is just go home." Is the only statement he heard from his partner who's on the verge of tears again because of how bad he felt his body ache.

"[Y/n] only agreed to that stupid proposal of yours because you were like some kind of a damn broken record!" Keisuke holds [Y/n]'s wrist and slightly tug her to his side.

"You were annoying her like Kisaki said earlier!"

"Shut up! That's not true!" Mikey refuses to back down. "[n/n] even accepted the ring I gave her, so quiet down, Edward." He hissed after emphasizing the name in a mocking tone.

Izana takes the opportunity to step aside without leaving [Y/n]'s waist along after he saw Baji let go of her wrist and be focused with arguing Mikey instead.
