22 - Roppo Ichiza

"This is a damn pain in the ass"  One of the guys said as he scowled at us. 'You can say that again'

"Suo, Hima, Nirei, you three protect that girl. I'll handle this" 

"Haaah? I'm not gonna let that happen." I gritted my teeth as I narrowed my eyes at Haru, I don't want him to fight alone.

"I-I can help! I'll protect the girl and you three just focus on what's in front of you.." Nirei said which startled us, I looked back at him and he looks scared though..will he be fine?

"What are you sayin-" I wanted to ask him but Suo cut me off, "Sakura-chan, if Nirei's insisting then let's just trust him." I can see him smile at me but I'm still worried.

"We'll leave it to you then Nirei." Haru said as he turned and faced the group of guys, Nirei looks more confident now, I feel kind of reassured. "Leave it to me"

"Oi enough talking you damned brats! We don't have time for this?"   'Shut your trap you asshole..'

They started to charge up at us, I don't want to deal with these lousy adults. "Oi brat stop scowling like that" I heard one guy shout as he approached me with his fists flying over in an attempt to hit me.

I shook my head and yanked his fists and let his body lunge forward, as his body passes mine, I kicked his back harshly with my right leg which made him fall to the ground with a loud thump, his face hitting the ground first.

"Asshole. Don't call me a brat." 

"Look at you being so smug huh?" I felt someone grab my arm but I yanked it away, "Don't touch me. You're disgusting." I glared at the guy who grabbed my arm and saw him try to grab me again, before I could do something, I saw his body fly off somewhere and Haru came into view. He kicked the guy away.

"You okay?" He asked me and I nodded my head in response, "Yeah"

"Nirei-kun!" We heard Suo shout which made us look at Nirei who was being charged up by a dude but he ducked to the ground and the guy fell on the ground. "Oh dang"

Another dude tried to attack Nirei, sending his foot forward to kick Nirei but Suo was faster and held his foot, twisting the guy's body over, making him fall to the ground. 

"I'm sorry but the boy's still learning you see.."   'Nirei? Learning...?'

"Oi keep your eyes in front of you!" I heard someone shout from our front side, I could see someone lunging forward to attack us so I swiftly spun around and made my way to the guy's left side, placing my foot against the back side of his knee and puts some pressure there just to see him slowly fall down. To make the process faster, I placed my arm against his face and elbowed him really hard before hearing a loud crack that maybe came from his nose. 'hehe'

As we finished every single one of them we heard a loud thud that came from Nirei and the girl's position, just to see him fall to the ground. We went up to them and I offered my arm to him and helped him up.

"I guess Suo-san has been teaching you huh?" I asked as I pulled him up, smiling down at him. "Hm you're a sharp one~" Suo butted in our conversation, he's just smiling, no scratches in his body at all. 'He's really good huh.'

"Yeah but Suo-san's stance is way cooler...I just looked lame.." Nirei said, degrading himself once again. "I didn't think you were lame.." We heard Haru say which made Nirei blush and he just looked away.

"A-anyways! who were those dudes? They were after you!" Nirei suddenly faced the girl and started talking to her instead. "W-well uhm...you see-"

Before the girl could finish, someone's foot came flying in front of my face, almost hitting me but we all backed away, except for Nirei who fell on the ground-'That was fast-'

"Sakura-chan, you okay?" I heard Suo ask me which made me look at him, "Yeah I'm fine, you?" I answered then I saw him just nod at me with a smile then we all turned to the guy who just attacked us.

He's wearing a formal suit- "You assholes were sniffing around Shizuka weren't you?!"  'Haah?'

"Wait- that's not-" She couldn't even explain because he was talking ahead of her. "Shizuka is going to work in this town and that's final!" 'Man..we saved her..'

We saw the man gaze at the girl's wound and he got even more mad- "How dare you hurt Shizuka's pearly white skin- I'll kill y-"

SLAP

"Listen to me already!!"

"I'm so sorry! I didn't know you guys s-saved Shizuka!" Look at this man bow to the ground like that- "Hundreds of years ago this would've been a Harakiri-worthy fault! I guess I can cut a finger off or two..."  'What is he saying-?!'

"For goodness sake Ka-chan! You can't just jump into conclusions like that! You keep starting a fight without even assessing the situation at hand!" This Shizuka girl keeps lecturing him and he's just apologizing-

"I'm really sorry" He said as he stood up and looked at us. 

"It's alright, we're just glad that the misunderstanding has been cleared.." Suo said with a smile.

Nirei started to ask about who they were and Kanji started to introduce themselves, so his name is 'Nakamura Kanji' then the girl's name is, 'Narita Shizuka'. Kanji started yapping about Shizuka being a singer and that she sounds like an angel and looks like an angel- purely praising her- 

"They're such good friends" We heard Nirei say but both Haru's cheeks and mine were red, 'They're not "just" friends Nirei..'

"They don't look like they're just friends.." Suo answered

"Why's your faces red?" Kanji asked but before we could say anything, Haru pushed us and dashed forward. Someone tried to attack us again but before Haruka can hit him, his body flew and hit the wall harshly.

There's more of them...wearing suits..

"Sheeesh...you're always a handful....just this month, how many times did I save your ass already?" The dude who kicked the guy away said, wiping his suit clean as he talked. He has long hair that's tied up in the back, he looks cool!

"Hehe I'm sorry..I should've paid more attention" Kanji said as he scratched his neck. "I sure hope that was the last of 'em and you've beat them all up already." This long haired dude said looking over at Kanji.

"I didn't beat them up, they did" He answered, pointing over at us which surprised the long haired dude and he went closer to us and bowed. "We don't know who you guys are but I hope our chairman didn't cause you guys some trouble"

"Chairman?" Haru asked as he looked over at Kanji, he walked over to the other dudes before answering, "Yeah, we've got a pretty famous name..people call us..'The Roppo Ichiza' and I'm the chairman of the organization" 

"RO-RO-ROPPO ICHIZA?!" Nirei suddenly shouted which made us cover our ears- 'Don't shout Nirei-'

"What are you yelling for?!" Haru said as his voice also got louder.

"Well Roppo Ichiza is a group who fought with Furin way way before it was united-" Nirei started to explain but Kanji interrupted, "Furin you say?"

I saw the color of Nirei's face wash out and he started to panic and Kanji was scratching his neck, 'Is it bad news-'

"You guys are from Furin huh?! Figures! That's why you guys are so strong!" He said cheerfully then pointed over at Haruka. "And you! You protected us even though we were strangers! You're pretty strong and you've got a heart too! I like ya kid!"

"I-I wasn't trying to protect ya or a-anything...you guys were just in the way.." Look at him blush..

"Give yourself more credit kid!" He started laughing while smiling cheerfully.

"U-uhm if you guys are from Furin..then do you guys know Tsubaki-chan?" Shizuka suddenly asked which made us look at her. 

"Y-you know Tsubaki-san?! We're supposed to meet up with Tsubaki-san today that's why we came here!" Nirei's still loud as ever-

Shizuka started to explain that they work together in the same stage then before we knew it, we're already somewhere else- a pub-

Tsubaki-chan's dancing on the stage- on a pole-

"...What's happening- Where are we-"
