The next morning, Michael packed explosives into a big bag and zipped it close. He slung the bag around his arm and called Misaki.
"Are you sure this is the only way to halt their operations?" He asked, "Isn't there any other way that's nicer and kinder than this?"
"Remember this, Longsliver." She replied, "Show no mercy to your opponents. Do you ever give chance to your enemy in a tournament or competition, and let them be the champion instead of you?"
"No, but..."
"See? You said no. So follow that logic. I'll ser you around." She then ended the call. He sighed and kept his phone.
"Pray to the lord Grover's not there."
Yamada-kun And The Assassin
Episode 12
Kento told Miyabi, Brian, Grover, Shaggy, Roi, Jay and Jennifer to gather in Shaggy's house.
"So, Boss, what's the next plan?" Roi asked Kento.
"I don't know. Any suggestions?"
"I'll try to hack into Misaki's laptop." Brian said, "If you can get it, that is. Then maybe from there we can find out if she has any plan in mind."
"I don't think she'll type anything down in there, though." Shaggy commented, "A person like her don't use it."
"Any more suggestions?" Kento asked.
Grover raised his hand, "We find that guy in the footage that you guys saw the other time. The one who shot the damn camera. Then we can see if that guy knows anything about Misaki."
"Alright, that's a start." Kento nodded his head in satisfaction, "Brian, try to get the backup file of the footage. We'll plan more as soon as Brian manages to get hold of the clip."
A few minutes later, Brian managed to recover the whole footage. He called out for Kento to take a look.
"That guy." Kento pointed to Ryan who was pointing a gun at the camera before it was shot, "Can you zoom in?"
"I'll try my best." Brian clicked on some keys and on the mouse. The screen then zoomed in to Ryan's face.
Kento took out his phone and snapped a picture of it.
"Brian, can you convert this part of the clip to my thumb drive?" Kento passed him a flash drive, "And then transfer it into this?"
"Alright."
Michael was outside Shaggy's house. He wore his face mask and gloves before slowly placing dynamite around the house.
Kento took the USB drive after Brian transferred the clip into it. He then heard Haruto crying.
"Oh my." He went into Haruto's room and carried him, "You cutie. My wife wishes to have a kid like you."
He then went out of the room and to Brian again, "Brian, can I trust you, Roi, Jay and Miyabi to take care of this house?"
"Where did the others go?"
"Shaggy and Jennifer went out for a full-day date. Grover went to mind his own business somewhere else."
"I see. I'll protect the house, man."
"Great. It gives me a sense of security." Kento said, "I'm bringing Haruto out for a walk."
"I'll see you later."
Kento and Haruto then exited the house. Michael was placing more dynamites when he saw the two. He hid behind a dust bin and waited for them to walk off.
In the airport, Shiraishi and Odagiri stopped just a few meters away from the check-in counter section.
"Have a safe flight, Sarushima." Shiraishi said, "Eat more, too. You're a model, but that doesn't mean you starve yourself just to look good."
"Remember to send us a message when you reach there." Odagiri added on, "And record everything that you will be doing. I want to see it."
"Sure, sure." Sarushima laughed, "Since when are you interested in America?"
"Since young. I didn't even get to travel often. The only time I went out of Japan was when Kento brought me to Singapore to visit his mother."
"I see. Curled up in your home?"
"It's work." Odagiri sighed, "Since Kento's not working, I have to work instead."
"Alright, if I talked longer, I'd miss my flight." Sarushima then hugged the two girls, "I'll see you in a week."
"Have a safe trip." Odagiri patted her shoulder. Sarushima then walked off.
"You think she'll enjoy herself in America?" Odagiri asked Shiraishi.
"Yeah, she will."
In Shaggy's house two hours later, Brian, Roi, Jay and Miyabi were talking about Suzaku High.
"So, you used to be from Suzaku High?" Roi asked Miyabi.
She nodded her head, "We used to have a club named Supernatural Studies Club. In that club, we find witches and it was a fun experience. And it made us all closer. That's why most of us were sad when Miyamura was killed."
"I see." Roi nodded his head, "Many connections though is making me kinda confused."
"So, about Boss's plan," Jay said, "What was it again?"
"To find the guy that shot the camera." Brian said, "Then we extract information from him. That way, we might have a chance to take Misaki down."
"But, the real question is, what happens if she screws our plan up?" Roi asked, "We took so long to place the damn camera, only for it to get shot and destroyed."
"I don't know." Brian said, "I've never came through this kind of situation before. The worst was dealing with Grover. But now I think doing that would be better than going through this shit."
As Michael is placing dynamites all over the house, a passer-by walked by and saw it. He stared weirdly at Michael before calling the police.
Miyabi was walking around the house when she saw red stuff all over the house through the window. She peeked out and saw dynamites everywhere.
"Oh. My. Gosh." Miyabi ran to Brian, Roi and Jay with a scared look on her face.
"Miyabi, what's wrong?" Brian asked.
"O...out...outside..." She pointed towards the outside.
"What about it?" Roi teased, "Birds? Lamborghinis? Or is it Shaggy and Jennifer making out in public?"
"Outside...red stuff..." Miyabi was too scared that she started stuttering and saying the wrong stuff, "Dangerous..."
"Red stuff? Dangerous?" Jay asked, "Blood?"
Michael connected long wicks to to the dynamites. He then lighted up a matchstick with a matchbox.
"I'm about to bomb someone's freaking house. Hope I don't get caught for this." Michael said, "Luckily Grover's not inside. Misaki better be nearby."
He then placed the matchstick near the wick. Just at this moment, Miyabi slammed the door open, with Brian, Jay and Roi at her back.
"Hey! What are you doing?" Roi screamed. Michael dropped the matchstick and it lighted up the wick. He then quickly ran away.
"Run away from the house!" Brian screamed.
Odagiri is driving her car from her workplace to Shaggy's house to visit Haruto. She had not seen him for days, and missed hugging him so badly. As she turned to her right, she saw Brian, Miyabi, Roi and Jay running out of the house.
"Why the hell are they running away from Shaggy's house?" Odagiri looked closer as the house was meters away. Suddenly, the house exploded, and houses beside it got destroyed. Parts of the house flew onto the four of them .
"I'd better help them out." Odagiri sped up, but then Misaki appeared in front of car. Misaki went to the driver seat and pulled Odagiri out.
"Let go of me!" Odagiri screamed. Misaki took out a syringe and injected it onto her. Odagiri's sight became blurry. A few seconds later, she went unconscious. Misaki threw her into the car and walked to Roi and the other three.
"I shall kill you guys here today!" She stabbed the sword into Miyabi's body.
"No!" Brian screamed. Roi stood up slowly and went to fight her. Jay also got up from lying position, throwing a brick aside.
Jennifer and Shaggy were just back from their date as Jennifer is feeling unwell. When they came from the opposite side, they saw their house destroyed and Misaki fighting Roi and Jay.
"What the hell happened to my house?" Shaggy asked.
"Why is Haruto not with them?" Jennifer asked worriedly, "Did he...did he..."
"Don't think so much." Shaggy assured her, "Those four won't leave a child behind."
Misaki heard car sounds and turned to her left. She saw Shaggy's car speeding towards her. Before she could dodge, Shaggy's car hit her, making her fly into Odagiri's car through the windshield. She then looked at her leg, which have cuts made by glass shards from the windshield.
She got up from the car, "Think I'll give up this easily?" She took her sword and sliced Shaggy's car engine.
"Fucking bitch." Shaggy came out with a shotgun before turning to Jennifer, "Take care of Miyabi and Brian."
"Alright." Jennifer ran to Miyabi. Roi, Jay and Shaggy then gathered in front of Misaki.
"Three out of five members of the original Dragons." Misaki snorted, "The weakest three trying to fight me. If it weren't for Ma, Han and Robert, you three would've been dead by now. Shaggy, you seem a little thin than your fat usual self."
"I'll take it as a compliment." Shaggy said.
"That's how you say it, Misaki Suzuki." Roi said, "We've changed over the years. We won't depend on the three."
"Is it because they're dead?" Misaki laughed, "Now you got a shit leader who can't do crap if I hold his wife hostage. This generation's definitely more fun than a decade ago."
"We'll trash your ass like how Ma defeated you." Jay said, "Then you'll shut up."
"Really?" Misaki said sarcastically, "I'm scared, guys."
Roi and Jay charged at Misaki. Roi kicked Misaki at her thighs from the side. She then held his neck tightly, trying to strangle him.
Jay punched her stomach and she dropped Roi. Shaggy reloaded his shotgun and shot her. She fell down onto the floor.
"Not bad. You improved." She got up quickly and kicked Roi's face. Jay tried head-butting her, but she slammed Jay's head down with both her fists.
Shaggy continued shooting his shotgun at her. She took up her sword and reflected the bullets while walking to him.
Once she reached him, she kicked his gun away and tried to slash him with her sword. Shaggy jumped just in time to dodge it.
She kept swinging her sword at him, and he kept dodging until someone shot his leg thrice. Shaggy fell down onto the floor, screaming in pain.
"Aunt, if you want to take this purple-haired woman," It was Nyami screaming, "You'd better hurry up. Kento's on his way back. I saw him while coming here."
"Alright." Misaki kicked Shaggy out of the way and entered Odagiri's car. Nyamni entered too and the car drove off.
"Purple-haired woman..." Shaggy whispered to himself, "Odagiri. Oh shit." He got up and limped towards Jennifer, who was already calling the ambulance.
"Alright." Jennifer said to the paramedics through the phone, "Thanks." She then ended the call and turned to Shaggy.
"Misaki ran away. She shot me."
"Are you and the other two boys okay?" Jennifer asked.
"Yeah, but Odagiri's not. I heard Misaki got her again."
"That's bad. Kento's going to be so mad."
Just then, Kento came back with Haruto.
"Haruto!" Jennifer ran to the baby and carried him, "I was so worried about you!"
On the other hand, Kento looked at Shaggy's destroyed house, "What in the hell just happened?"
Shaggy walked to him, "I hate to break it, but there's bad news."
"Bad news?"
"Misaki Suzuki came here to destroy my house, so now Miyabi's injured because of her." Shaggy sighed, "Odagiri came to visit us, but got taken away by Misaki and another girl named Nyami."
"Did you say...Odagiri was taken away by Misaki?" Kento stared at him with shock, "You're kidding me, right?"
Shaggy shook his head, "I wish I was."
Kento knelt down and slammed the road with his fists, "Misaki Suzuki! I'm going to kill you when I find you!"
In the hospital, Shaggy, Miyabi, Roi, Jay and Brian got treated for their injuries. Kento covered his face onto his cupped hands.
"There will be a way to stop Misaki and save Odagiri." Jennifer comforted him by patting his shoulder.
"I just wonder what way we could use to defeat this assassin." Kento said, "She's just a woman, yet I can't seem to defeat her."
"We'll find a way, Kento-san." Jennifer said.
In an unknown place, Odagiri woke up to find herself kidnapped. Her hands were tied tightly behind her back and her legs were tied together. Ropes were also around her breasts and arms. She looked up, only to see Misaki laughing.
"Like my new surprise, Nene Odagiri?" She went to Odagiri.
"Let me go, you psycho!" Odagiri screamed.
"Why should I? I'm not even done with the revenge plan. While you're stuck here, I'm going to take down all your friends and family. One by one. Including your dear husband Kento."
"Don't you dare hurt Kento, you bitch!" Odagiri screamed at her, "He did nothing to you!"
"You don't have any right to say anything, Odagiri." Misaki took duct tape and taped her mouth.
"Have fun here. You'll get to see all your friends die soon." Misaki gave an evil laugh as she walked away. Odagiri struggled to free herself from the ropes, but it was so tight that she muffled in pain.
Odagiri lied on the floor, too tired to continue struggling. She decides that she'll continue tomorrow.
She then stared at the floor with a downcast face and thought, "I really am useless."
