I'm going to try and get as many updates on this story done as possible before this weeken, because I'll be gone for a couple days this weekend for championships
Enjoy!
"What do you mean by we're going out again today. We'll surely run into them" Butterfly yelled at the black-claded teenager
"That's the point Butterfly, that's exactly the point" He grinned, playing with his switchblade
"But what about Sparrow? He's still too tired from yesterday!"
"Sparrow, Sparrow, Sparrow, Sparrow, all you worry about is Sparrow" The teenager rolled his eyes "Maybe you should worry more about yourself for once"
"Well, if I don't worry about him, you're going to overwork him. Just because he's skilled doesn't mean you have every right in the world to make him work his ass off"
"But I do. Remember Butterfly, I'm the leader. I can do whatever I want" He pointed the switchblade at her "Remember, if you don't want to do this, there's always the alternative"
Butterfly remained silent, so the teenager went back to playing with the switchblade "And don't even try to overthrow me. I've beaten you once, I can do it again"
"So how's it been with you and Yoyo?" Corn asked as they covered up a tag in Dogenzaka Hill
"It's been okay. We've been banned from a lot of clubs, but I don't mind too much. As long as I get to be with him" Beat smiled "Though. . .I have a feeling he's been hiding something, and him freaking out and running away is only proving it" He sighed
"Well, we just have to wait. Yoyo just does things weirdly, he's a kid. He doesn't know how some things work. You should know this by now" Corn smiled
"True" Beat shrugged and tossed an empty spray can in a nearby waste bucket "I guess the good thing about fewer members is that we don't have to worry about running out of spray paint all the time"
"That's true" Corn nodded, and both of them skated further into Dogenzaka Hill, but stopped when they saw an unfamiliar Rudie, one with dark brown hair
"Isn't that. . .Sparrow?" Corn asked
"Yeah, definitely him" Beat nodded, then approached the Rudie "Hey, Sparrow. It's been a while, hasn't it? Almost 7 years now" Beat grinned
"You're. . .a GG? Boss told me not to speak to GGs, boss will be angry, then Butterfly will have to protect me again" Sparrow looked down
"You're boss isn't here at the moment" Corn reassured him "What is your boss's name?"
"Crow, he's called Crow. Don't tell him I told you, he'll kill me" Sparrow shuddered a little "You're a GG, right? Don't let him get near your green-haired member. He'll kill him" Sparrow looked around a little "I. . .I have to go" And skated off without another word
"Wait! What do you mean by don't let Crow go near him?" Beat called after him, but he was already too far away
"I have a bad feeling about this" Corn sighed "That Crow guy must be really good to top Butterfly and Sparrow, and really controlling to make them both afraid to protest"
"Were Sparrow and Butterfly actually that good?"
"Yeah, it was only a simple mistake that got them in the Keisatsu's hands. Butterfly's really smart, tactical, always planning. Sparrow, he may be a bit off in the head, but he's a very skilled Rudie"
"How'd you know that?" Beat raised an eyebrow
"I helped them once or twice" Corn shrugged "Nothing in particular, I got most of it from Jet Set Radio" Corn sighed again "Come on, we have to go find Yoyo, before that Crow guy finds him first"
Yoyo sighed as he skated around Shibuya Terminal, holding his head in his hand. He couldn't believe it at all, there was no way he could have come back. No way possible. He was shot right in the head, and his body buried in Rokkaku-Dai Heights. But. . .here he was. . .alive again, and he was going to kill him
He had made a promise to him, not to love anyone else while he was still alive. It was a bit controlling, but he understood why, after loosing twelve people in a span of only sixteen years, he didn't want to loose another one.
I need to go back to Rokkaku-Dai! I need to make sure it's really him Yoyo hyped himself, then turned around to head for Rokkaku-Dai, but there was someone blocking his path
Crow
He started to skate past him, but Crow stopped him
"Hey Kid"
"I'm afraid you got the wrong person yo" Yoyo said before trying to pass him again, but of course, Crow blocked his path
"Oh no Kid, I got the right person" He grinned, pushing Yoyo's hair away from his ear, exposing a silver earring "Who else would carry on the tradition of the earrings. This one was for me, wasn't it?" He grinned, examining it, while Yoyo remained silent "You missed me, didn't you?"
"I don't even know who you are" Yoyo batted Crow's hand away
"You don't remember me, Kid? Crow?" Crow smiled menacingly
"Crow was shot right in the head, died yo. There's no way you can be him" Yoyo retorted
"But I am" Crow pushed his bangs back, revealing thirteen different earrings, and Yoyo had to stifle a gasp so he wouldn't' see "You can even examine them, you'll see they're all the same, just like a couple years ago. Well. . .except for this one, which was added after you ran off" He fingered one of the earrings "You know, I can give you a chance to come back with me. All you have to do is give up your current lover"
"I don't have a current lover!"
"Oh, but you do. Don't think I didn't come back without doing some research. You love someone, but I can't quite figure out who" Crow made a fake deep sigh "Is it that blue-haired girl I met in Dogenzaka Hill, she seemed your type. Rhyth, correct? Oh. . .right. . .silly me, I forgot. You go for guys"
"Shut up Crow" Yoyo continued glaring, but it only made Crow chuckle
"You can't win Kid. I have you cornered" He grinned "Now. . .what should I do first. . ." Crow came closer to him again, stroking his face
"Yoyo!" Both of them turned to see Beat and Corn skating as fast as they could towards them
"Well, they certainly ruined my fun" Crow pouted, stopping his stroking of Yoyo's face "Well, Au revoir, Kid. May we meet again" and he skated off
"Are you okay Yoyo?" Beat asked as he reached him. Yoyo didn't respond verbally for a few moments, but did dig his head into Beat's chest
"He's not the one I know, he couldn't be yo" Yoyo said softly
"What exactly is your connection with this Crow guy anyways?" Corn asked, and Yoyo lifted his head slightly from Beat's chest so he could look over at Corn
"He's the entire reason I'm gay in the first place"
"You mean-?" Beat looked down in surprise
"Yes, Crow and I were once partners. But the one I knew, he was loving, caring, and wouldn't do anything that would harm me yo. But this Crow. . .I don't' recognize him. It's like he's a different person. He has to be a different person, because Crow's dead" Yoyo started to sniffle a little "But this Crow, he desperate for me, I can tell yo. I'm scared he'll-"
"It's okay Yoyo, he won't touch you" Beat reassured him, hugging him tight against his chest "I promise I won't let him near you"
"Thanks Beat" Yoyo gave a small smile while he pressed his body tightly against Beat's
"Come on, let's go back to the Garage. Rhyth's worried about you, Yoyo" Corn sighed
"She's starting to become just like you Corn" Yoyo grinned as he escaped Beat's hug and skated ahead of the two older Rudies
