It's four years and a half now since Tsukasa left for America and now the F-4 have ended all their studies at university. They are now working or helping with their families business at Tokyo. Meanwhile, Tsukushi is about ending her university studies.
The four years Tsukasa said to leave for America and then come back have already passed and he is still not back. So Tsukushi is a bit worried and sad about it.
Meanwhile, Shigeru has left also to Europe to study on medicine at one of the best universities in the whole world and some days ago called Tsukushi to tell her she will be back Tokyo today, with an university friend and her lawyer (of the friend), Sizuka Todoh who in fact is Japanese too and friend of all the F-4 and Tsukushi Makino.
So, as it was already announced and the family of Shigeru was important and their heir was returning to Tokyo again, lot of press members had gone to the airport so the rest of the F-4 had gone with Tsukushi to met them all too.
The flight arrived on a bit of delay.
"She said two o'clock, didn't she?" Sohiro said softly.
"Yes, but I can't understand why she comes in delay…" Tsukushi added.
Half an hour later, the press was a bit tired cause they had already interviewed the heirs of the most important families in all Japan and the one that was supposed to be notice had still not arrive.
Then a private plane landed and everyone went nervous. When the plane landed people began running to the gathering door where Sizuka and Shigeru were supposed to appear they didn't saw anything, but a couple of stewardesses appeared through the doors with a beautiful girl everyone knew it was Sizuka, but the F-4 surrounded her and dismissed the press.
"Sorry but I'm a bit tired from the travel…" she said softly.
Then they went to leave and the two stewardesses followed them smiling.
"Misses" Mamisaka said softly. "We would thank you didn't followed us."
"Sorry but you are charged on drunk driving, Akira Mamisaka." The one wearing glasses said putting him a pair of handcuffs.
"Hey!" he said. "What are you speaking about?"
"Hey!" Sohiro said standing between both. "You should be mistaken!"
"Hey, girls." Sizuka said. "Stop it, no press around."
"Oh, Sizuka… You spilled the beans!" The red haired girl said smiling. "They were beginning to go a bit nervous."
"What's going on here?" Tsukushi said confused while the glasses girl removed the handcuffs. "Do you know them, Sizuka?"
"May I introduce you to my best customer, Isabelle Okazaki and her friend." She said. "I have just come to accompanied her."
"Hi, I'm Isabelle." The red haired one said smiling. "Dress up. By the way, did Sizuka mention we are also friends?"
That made them all go surprised as Shigeru removed her glasses and the black haired wig she had put on for passing unnoticed as she smiled.
So even after all that time out, Shigeru kept on being the same as always.
"Did you know I won a fighting tournament at the university?" she told them.
No, nothing on her has changed.
"Oh, Okazaki family isn't that owns one of the biggest heritance on restaurants and hotels in the world?"
"That's my father's business, but yes. He is that self-centred tycoon." She said appearing a bit bothered.
"She has broken up with her family but for special situations." Sizuka explained the rest nearly whispering. "Better not to name her on her dad…"
Rui looked at her softly. She had long and straight hair that was before tied on a stewardess like hairstyle but now that she was inside a limousine, she had removed her hairpins and looked better. Hips length and bright red.
"Is it something wrong with my hair?" she asked as everyone but for Sizuka and Shigeru looked at her hair a bit surprised on the colour.
"Is it… red?" Tsukushi asked.
"Yes." She said a bit surprised.
"Hey, I like that hair dyeing. Where did you got it?" Sohiro asked then.
"No dyed…" she said then suddenly smiling as she took a lock of hair over her shoulder to show it. "Red is its natural colour. See? It's softer than for being dyed."
"Wow!" Tsukushi said smiling. "Here would be near impossible to find a natural blood red haired person!"
Smiling the girl was wonderful. And Tsukushi was right; here in Japan it would be nearly impossible to find a natural haired woman with such a hair colour.
Anyway, the face of the girl rang them a bell. Suddenly Rui, who had been looking at her for a long while just hearing but not saying much on the chat opened his mouth.
"Are you the same woman appearing on 007, Diamond Snakes?"
"Rui!" Tsukushi said fast telling him off. "Don't say nonsenses!"
"In fact…" she began saying.
"That was the film I liked most of her!!" Shigeru said smiling. "Did you saw that back flip she did for hitting the bald guy?! Just incredible! And she didn't use a specialist for that!!"
"Shigeru… you are going to take my colours off." The girl said softly going pink.
"So you are daughter of a tycoon… and actress." Mamisaka asked.
"Doctor, actress and model, yes." She said.
"Don't forget economician." Sizuka said fast.
"And economician for taking care of some of my father business." She added.
"Then this is not a fun travel?" Sohiro asked going to the front, his elbows on his knees on interest.
"Not exactly…" she said. "I came here for business, I'm going to be my brother's eye here on Tokyo and I'll work on some modelling sessions here as well as private doctor and perhaps, with Sizuka's help, a film this year."
"But first of all you have to rest a bit!" Shigeru said. "Oh, and you must meet Tsukasa when he comes back."
"Domyoji's heir?" she asked then.
"Yep." The rest said at once. "Tsukushi's fiancée."
"Don't worry. I'm not interested on him." She said.
"Already married?" Akira asked smiling.
"No." she said thinking.
"Engaged?" Sohiro added.
"No." she kept on saying.
"With boyfriend." Tsukushi said then smiling.
"Er… no." she said thinking for a second.
"She is single and not going with anyone else." Sizuka said smiling softly. "But…"
"Single." She said looking at her. "I have come for family business and some fun, as I said."
Perhaps it was weird, but she was not lying, at least not that time. It was evident, even when they dropped her at the big colonial house her family had in the city and said she would stay there. Well, then was a little sign of lie in her smile. She was not planning that. But it was even more evident when they returned that same night to look for her and they were told she had left some while ago.
She was out, true, and they found her on the centre, wearing as one of the Ganguro girls that used to be around the centre, willing to party till every single disco was closed.
But she was surrounded by a lot of men, wearing as one of the ganguros around them and smiling.
Then Sohiro and Akira went to met her.
"Hey, Isa!" Akira said smiling.
Immediately the guys went tense, but she made them stop worrying with just a single gesture.
"Hello." She said smiling. "Did you come go get fun?"
"Yep, and… I see you have come here for the same." Sohiro said serious looking at the guys standing at her back. "Friends of yours?"
"Ah, yes." She said looking over her shoulder. "They are… family friends, we had to met around here. They are going to recognise me as their new boss." She added whispering softly.
"Miss, Okanzaki." One of them said laying his hand at her bare shoulder. "We should leave now."
"Coming." She said softly. "Well, I'll see you around then."
"If you want you can call us." Sohiro said looking astonished as she left with the men.
She then raised a hand to show him she had heard him but didn't stop. The men seemed not very fond of the idea of them speaking with her, but she was able to control them.
"This smells a rat." Sohiro said while Akira and he got in the first disco.
"Yes, those men seemed to immediately obey her blindly." Akira said. "As if they were working for her."
"Any worker would never wear like that when she is wearing as a commoner." Sohiro said then. "Perhaps we should have gone after them to check she was ok."
Meanwhile, on another side of the area…
"Miss, I don't think that mixing with that kind of guys will be…" the man that was on her right hand said before she rose a hand showing him to shut up.
"They are friends." She said. "They know nothing about this face of me so I think it would be better to leave them alone. Even if they are just pimps as my father."
"But… yes, Miss." The man said bowing. "It will be done as you wish."
That was the night Isabel Okanzaki, heiress of the Okanzaki family Mafia after her grandfather's death and following his instructions and wishes, would be recognised as the new head of the Okanzaki Mafia. In the ceremony she would take not just the title of Head but also follow a simple ritual in which she would swear some things to be a good leader.
As she was going through the ritual, she thought about the old man. She knew all about that part of the family inheritance. Her father didn't know a single thing about it so nor did her brother. Just her was the one chosen by her grandfather before he died, making her promise him she would take the head position of the gang after he died. Now she was "crowned" as the new gang head. The last Okanzaki heir to the charge or ruling the gang. Luckily for her, she was the one ruling them all, not the one facing the black mails and all that. Those were her right hand's duties, always asking for her approval, and she would agree to anything not involving killing people or staining her family name.
Now she had taken the position, the only thing left was fighting all the minor bands head's to show them she was the one who would rule them all. That meant fighting 15 men 10 of whom she would have to fight that same night before leaving.
Tough fights, but she won them all, one after another, making the men fighting her go unconscious before they could notice how strong she was. Her grandfather had taken great care of it so she would not lose a single fight even if it was against a group of strong men. Fighting for loyal rules and not so fair ones if the enemies didn't fight fair.
After the big fight, all the gangs swore loyalty to their new head, kissing her hand one after another till the end of the row while she nodded showing respect for their loyalty.
The other 5 members would test her on the following days, just to check she was worth of being their "supreme" head.
"Just be careful of not allowing my friends to know who I really am, please." She just said.
"Yes, mistress." They said bowing in respect.
When all the things ended it was really late, so she was taken in the same limousine she was taken to the central, to her family manor.
She had a bath and then discovered the marks she had got on the fights. Some bruises and little cuts, nothing to ugly but enough for her friends asking her.
