Bankotsu woke up in a hazed vision, not clearly seeing was around him. All he knew as of the current moment was that was he was on a bed, the room was white so he knew for sure, it wasn't at his house nor his room. His room was cobalt blue like his eyes. "Finally you're up." Suikotsu said while he groaned audibly. "You've been out for a few days now; almost had me worrying."

"What…what are you talking about? Where's Naraku and that other guy he was with?" He asked, remembering the name and faces of his previous perpetrators.

"They left for their trip back home. Came here a while ago. Are they the ones who did this to you?" He asked, brows slightly furrowing. He was his older brother after all, second oldest but still valued him. "Yeah… from what I remembered clearly. Jumped me waiting at the Bx17 bus stop around 96th street and Lexington." He told him while Suikotsu nodded.

"Jumped me because of what happened between me and Kagura earlier yesterday." He shrugged while Suikotsu looked over at his clipboard with his information.

"Can be or just the fact he waited for the right reason to attack you." He conceded, "What happened between you two the yesterday? Renkotsu called me after he dropped you off and that he saw you get cuddly with another girl that resembled her." He said while Bankotsu scoffed, not in the least surprised how much word got around.

"Nothing, I just left her."

"Well obviously yeah but why? Did she do anything to you?" he asked while Bankotsu slowly shifted on the bed.

"Bitch told me all this time we've been dating that's she's possibly infected with HIV." He growled while Suikotsu blinked, "Oh really?"

"Yeah and now she prolly expects pity for everything." Bankotsu scoffed while Suikotsu sat in the chair beside him.

"So did you take a test yourself at a clinic, to make sure? How did you handle the situation?" he asked while Bankotsu shrugged.

"Like any normal outraged human being. She lied to me and possibly almost killed me. Thank God I wasn't tested positive for her shit." He crossed his arms as Hiten and Kouga entered the room.

"Hey Mr. HIV." Kouga grinned while Bankotsu glared dagger and Hiten nudged the laughing wolf. "Don't like it now, do you?"

"Kouga shut up. Now isn't the time for your little petty comebacks." Hiten retorted before sitting at the other side of the bed. "You alright?"

"No." Bankotsu snarled while Suikotsu got up and sighed. "Be careful not to piss him off too much. He's still on meds and his anger can result in high blood pressure and—"

"Yes, yes we know Suikotsu now shoo." Hiten whisked his hand and shooed him out the room before shutting the door. "So what's this I hear you with Yura?"

"Like seriously man…" Kouga started as he scratched his head, "You just take the cake and go down another step. Isn't the brightest move you made lately, either."

"It'd take too many of your fractured brain cells to see my move was the safest and best move in my life, so now shut up." Bankotsu snapped, reaching to touch his cheek that numbed and hissed lightly at the sore from last night's event.

Hiten crossed his arm and shook his head in disapproval, "Told you it'd get ugly. I told you." He brought it up again.

"Can you shut up already? God." Bankotsu groaned, "Who the hell told Naraku about what happened between me and Kagura?"

"They're both related and you're the one saying I have the fractured brain cells?" Kouga declared. "Gossip just stretched out across the entire school and now everyone knows your business."

Bankotsu took a deep breath in and leaned back against his bed, "Well that's good in a way I guess. Least people would know what to expect when dealing with Kagura."

"Don't talk like that. She's still your friend and ours too." Hiten reminded him while Bankotsu snorted, "And this is exactly what I meant when I told you two days ago."

"What are you talking about? Nothing happened, just I saw the light a little bit more later after all. If anything, I should've listened to you and took my time learning more about girl first before I pushed too far. This is a well life lesson I'm learning here."

"Oh boy, he's admitting learning about the girl before practicing on her." Kouga shook his head and Hiten nudged him.

"Besides," Bankotsu added, ignoring his comment, "Turns out getting to know Yura came out so much better then flirting and toying with her in the beginning. Did you know she actually finds me more funny and laughs at my jokes?"

"Or maybe just laughs at you?" Kouga joked while Bankotsu glared. "Alright alright I'll stop."

"I should've known this end out bad…you know for the past few days she hasn't come to school at all?" Hiten brought up and Bankotsu rolled his eyes again.

"Can you please stop bringing her up? You guys came here for me I hope, not for her." Hiten paused for a moment before shaking his head.

"I don't know what's been going on lately with you but the Bankotsu I know, wouldn't be this vicious toward someone whose scared shitless to step out her porch step. C'mon Kouga, no sense in sticking around anymore." He retorted as he and Kouga stood up.

"Enjoy your lonely stay here, asshole." He retorted before both men left the room.
