Author's note

Ok, I posted this chapter cause my sister asked for it. To be honest, I don't want to post it yet but eh, let's just post it. For anime watchers, this storyline might be different in a lot of aspect since I use manga as reference but even so, I didn't follow everything according to manga. I changed some details to fit with the story.

Heads up for new information on this AU! For this AU and for the sake of the story, the Division Rap Battle was held 5 years after TDD broke up and 4 years after the accident between Samatoki and Ichiro. The reason will be revealed soon... or maybe...later? Who knows... Fufufu.

Sorry that I can't post any chapter in the near future but on the bright side, you guys get to meet Samaichi's child!!

3 years later, a year before the 1rst Division Rap Battle...

Jiro was still tucked under his blanket, sleeping while snoring loudly. Albeit being asleep, he can hear a soft calling of his name from far away, something that sounded a lot like 'Jiro-nii'. Huh. When was the last time he heard Saburo call him that? He couldn't remember but a goofy smile plastered on his sleeping face. He did felt a soft slap on his face but he just ignored it and continue to sleep.

"Mou!! Jiro-nii!! Wake up!!" Aoi cried out exasperatedly. He's been trying to wake his uncle for the past half an hour already but the man in front of him just refused to wake up and now Aoi is getting very annoyed. The second-born Yamada just continues to doze off despite his nephew's chagrin. Aoi has black hair, short and nice but a lil longer than Ichiro's TDD era hairstyle. The young boy has a pair of piercing red eyes ( and long eyelashes as a bonus!).

Right at the moment, Aoi was about to just give up, Saburo walk passes Jiro's room when he heard his nephew's frustration towards his older brother. Saburo is already in his usual attire, that is his favorite yellow hoodie underneath his blue highschool jacket paired up with the usual high school pants. A little girl with dual-colored hair and a pair of beautiful shiny green eyes sat on the youngest Yamada's arm. The girl looks at Aoi then Jiro before giggling. Saburo clicked his tongue in annoyance while looking at Jiro in disgust. Seriously? He still can't believe that his idiot brother is already 19 but still act like he's 17. He let out an exasperated sigh as he put down the girl in his arm on the ground while Aoi ran towards him.

"Sabu-nii!! I can't wake Jiro-nii!! He kept on sleeping again!!" the little boy complained to the youngest among the siblings. Saburo gave Aoi a fond smile while he ruffling his hair earning a giggle from the younger boy.

"It's alright, Aoi. You did your best. Let me wake him up, ok?" Saburo said while smiling at the boy. He stood up from his crouching position and stride towards Jiro who was still asleep while Aoi ran towards the little girl. Saburo took a photo of Jiro rather embarrassing sleepy face before he turned to face his nephew and niece

" Can you guys close your ears? I'm doing the usual," he asked in which the pair quickly obey, cupping their ears with their tiny hands, they stood beside the door and being away from their uncles while giggling because they both knew exactly was is going to happen to their uncle. Saburo took a deep breath while both of his hands holds his blanket and-

"WAKE UP YOU LAZY ASSHOLE!!!!" Saburo yelled on top of his lung while he deliberately yanked the blanket off Jiro in a not-so-nice-manner. This has caused the second Yamada to flip and be thrown down from his bed and landed face-first on the floor. A series of giggles could be heard across the room while Saburo let out a satisfied huff and Jiro groaned in pain. Just when the older realized who has caused his misfortune, he thought about cursing off those smug grins on his little brother's face but just before he could do so, he saw his niece and nephew beside his bedroom door and thus he canceling his initial action. He decided to curse silently while grumbling as he stood up, rubbing the sore spot on his face.

"Hurry! Breakfast ready!" Aoi cried out when he saw his uncle dragged himself to the toilet. A sleepy hum could be heard before the second Yamada close and locked the bathroom door. The pair held hands and proceed to go to their next destination! With their mission of ' Getting their Uncle for Breakfast' has been accomplished, the children decided to go down to the kitchen to greet their mother and their oldest brother among the triplets.

"Mama! Isa-nii!! We're back and mission accomplished!" both children cried out happily and rather victoriously as they went down the stairs toward the kitchen. They didn't run. They carefully went down the stairs while holding onto the bars of the railing since they both still small, they couldn't reach the railing yet. Saburo was behind them just in case anything happens. At the kitchen, they can see their mother setting up the table with dinner with another boy around their age who ran towards them and give both Aoi and Sumire a high five each. Isami is their oldest brother among the triplets. He has chin-length white hair in which resemble a little too much like

Saburo helped Ichiro to set the table when Jiro walked into the kitchen and help the triplets to sit on their perspective seats, that is, besides their favorite uncles (Mom for Isami, Jiro for Aoi, and Saburo for Sumire).

Somehow, by all odds, breakfast went by rather quietly with no arguments or lashing out towards each other. No sneaky kick attacks under the table. Not even glares we thrown at the siblings. It's just a silent atmosphere. A supposedly normal way to spent eating breakfast. But this is not normal in the Yamada household. Very not normal. Ichiro let his eyes wander to Jiro, Saburo then his 3 children. They all eat in silence with the occasional sound of clacking chopsticks and munching from the children. Morning banters and kicks underneath the table between Jiro and Saburo have become a norm in the house to the point it felt weird when they didn't do it. And this is very odd indeed for their usual morning routine.

The silence went on until they finish eating and put away their dirty dishes into the sink. Both Jiro and Saburo even volunteered to wash the dishes. Simultaneously. This is getting weird and Ichiro has had enough of it.

"Okay, guys. Cut it out," the oldest among them finally said with a sigh while ushering his children to go upstairs. The only omega in the house faces both of his Alpha little brothers, arms crossed with an unimpressed look on his face while he leans on the wall. Ichiro quirked an eyebrow, eyes never leaving his little brothers as if challenging them to tell him the truth.

"Aren't you guys going to tell me?" he asked, using the tone they knew they shouldn't mess with. Sure their oldest brother is an Omega, but everyone knew better than to mess with him cause he can kick anyone's butt like they were nothing regardless of their secondary gender.

Both Alphas gulped. They finally finished washing the dishes so they don't have any other thing to distract themselves with. The two young men looked nervous and uncertain, which is very unlike them who always beam with confidence. It was Saburo who finally broke the awkward atmosphere.

"We heard about the upcoming Division Battle next year. Chuuoku told you to find teammates for your team. And... We th-,"

"We want to be on your team!!" Jiro exclaimed before Saburo could even finish his sentence earning a glare from the youngest among the siblings. Ichiro was silent. His red and green eyes just look at his siblings and yet he said nothing. The little brothers are getting more and more nervous.

"Pry tell me why I should?"

"If you let Baka-Jiro in your team, he'll definitely tarnish your reputation! So let me join your team instead of that idiot so I make your reputation grow stronger and brighter than before,"

"HUH?!! The FUCK did you say?! Care to say that again to my face?!"

"You heard me the first time! Or are your brain are just too dumb to even comprehend such a simple statement by me?"

"You know what?! Let's take this outside-,"

"ENOUGH!! Act like your age for once! And what did I say about using Alpha voice in the house?!" his voice is rather calm but they knew better. His breathing was slightly labored at their action and this has sent both his little brother on a guilt trip.

Ichiro's phone rang, taking it as a cue to calm himself down, he picked it up. A rather familiar high pitch noise came into the receiver and Ichiro quickly knew who that particular voice belong to. The background sound of Ichiro talking to the phone filled the room while both Jiro and Saburo seething towards each other.

"It's your fault you big dumbass!! Now Ichi-nii is mad at us!"

"What?! Who the hell started first brat?!!"

"I'm not the first person who used his Alpha voice in the house!"

"Tha-! That's because you're being a big jerk!"

"Oh~? Playing the victim now huh? I should've known you'll stand that low,"

"CAN YOU TWO JUST SHUT UP?!!" Ichiro yelled for the second time that day but before he could continue to scold them his phone once again rang. He picked it up and walk a little further from both Jiro and Saburo so that the caller won't have to hear most parts of their argument.

"Hello? Ah, Jakurai-san is there a problem? Ahaha, yeah the typical stuff you know,"

"If he ever let you join the team is just because he's too kind. You're just going to hold him down,"

"Huh?! What does that suppose to mean?!"

"That means that you are a complete bafoo-!" but before Saburo could finish his sentence, both Jiro and himself jolt in horror.

The usually clean scent of lemon just suddenly turned sour. Like ' You-put-too-much-lemon-in-lemonade' sour. They turned their face and was greeted by a very pissed of Ichiro with his arms crossed and a very creepy kind of serene smile. The younger brothers both gulped because both of them knew for sure that they just fucked up.

"First thing first, didn't I tell you both to shut up while I take the call? Are you both deaf or what?! Besides, I'm not taking you both on my team. Not when you act like this. Now let's go upstairs. I have jobs for both of you," Ichiro said with a tired tone in his voice and this has caused both Jiro and Saburo to crestfallen. Won't Ichiro consider the idea before rejecting them? Maybe he's mad because they just used their Alpha voice on each other. They all walk silently towards the office and saw the children sitting on the sofa, talking to themselves.

"I'm sending you guys both informations Ramuda and Jakurai-san needed,"

"Eh~? Hifumi-san got stalked again? Another creepy lady of all people," Jiro snickered in a rather calm tone like this is the most normal thing to happen to a person. This has caused both Ichiro and Saburo to chuckle and snort respectively.

"It seems so. It's sure is hard being the No. 1 Host after all," Ichiro laughed it off while Saburo read the information his brother just sent.

"Oh? Ramuda-san want information on.. Yumeno Gentaro?"

"What's wrong Saburo? You know him?"

"Nah. I went to a bookstore and kinda find a novel with this guy's name. He's an author apparently. His book wasn't so bad I guess," the last part of his sentence sounded more like a mumble to himself rather than to his family.

"We'll discuss bout the teams later after you guys finish this job. Be back before sundown,"

That. That was the very statement that makes both Jiro and Saburo looked at Ichiro with eyes of disbelief and joy. Did Ichiro just said what they think he said?!!

"YOU MEAN IT?!!" Jiro exclaimed excitedly, eyes shining like a puppy who just got a new toy. The mixture of lime and orange filled the room, indicating how happy both Alphas are right now.

"You'll let us join the team?!!" Saburo cried out in disbelief.

"We'll see. Like I said, be back before sundown," but before the siblings could even go and Ichiro could go back to doing his job, 2 tiny hands tug onto his jean. He looked down and saw both his son and daughter looking up at him with pleading, puppy eyes.

"What is it?" he asked even though he knew very well what his children are going to ask.

"Can I go with Jiro-nii/Sabu-nii?" they ask in unison. Ichiro sighed inwardly. He already knew this would happen. Seriously. Both Aoi and Sumire are just too close with their uncles to the point it's almost hard to take them apart. Just like what a family is supposed to be. Can't Jiro and Saburo be close just like how close they are with their nephews and niece? Ichiro doubts that.

"What if I say no?" teasing and pranking them once in a while wasn't so bad and most of the time the children fell for it. A look of shock from both children before they started to get panic. Usually, he let them, why not today?! Ichiro let out a snicker, earning a pout from his children. Isami who stays beside Ichiro joined their mother (well in his case, he giggled) over his sibling's reaction. Ichiro crouched down to his children's height and ruffle their hair.

"I'm just kidding. Jiro, Saburo you know what to do," the oldest among them said as he looked at his siblings with knowing eyes. Both Jiro and Saburo nod their heads. Understanding the silent meaning behind his looks.

And with that, both little brothers ran out from the office with Aoi trailing behind Jiro and Sumire ran after Saburo which only leave Isami with Ichiro. Ichiro chuckled at his children's antique. There's no way of stopping them now. He did try to prevent his children from going to their odd jobs but those troublemakers would definitely find their own way to catch up with the brothers. Scolding them works for the first few times but the act already seems like a futile option.

It's pretty ironic really when you think about it. Sumire was actually the second born but she's pretty much glued to Saburo while Aoi was the third born but he's super close with Jiro. Well, Isami is close with Ichiro since he a mama's boy. (Don't call him that. He'll get flustered over it) and he prefers to stay with his mother for now. They were so close with their uncles to the point that sometimes Ichiro did get jealous. (But everyone knew that Ichiro will always be their No. 1, even for Jiro and Saburo).

'They better take care of them like they always do'

•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~

At the train station, Jiro and Aoi were sitting on a bench at the Ikebukuro train station while waiting for their train to Shinjuku. Aoi sitting quietly next to Jiro with an ice cream in his hand in which he ate happily. As much as Jiro wants to finish the job real quick, he just couldn't say no to Aoi's cute puppy eyes. He let out a sigh while caressing his nephew's hair while Aoi himself is enjoying the ice cream. Jiro saw 2 brothers running along in which seems like a game of tag.

'How long has it been since Saburo called me Jiro-nii?' Jiro thought while letting his brain reminiscing the old days where Saburo was still little and would call him 'Jiro-nii' and ran along after him. Just like what Aoi always tends to do. He let out a chuckle. Well, Aoi is a cute lil substitute but it doesn't exactly feel the same. The young man fishes out his phone and quickly dialed the number he always called every time he needs information's on Shinjuku's territory

"Yo, do you got the information? Meet you? Is it necessary? Ok, fine. Where? Huh?!! The same place?! Are ya nuts?!"

"Ugh-! Fine! But don't smoke. Aoi is coming too so don't you dare smoke!"

"Is that Urumi-san?" Aoi asked, chewing off his last bit of cone in his mouth. Urumi Asogi, one of his uncle's sources of information. The little kid has long since been known for that lady since he always follows Jiro whenever he's doing his job. It's dangerous, yes but what are he and his siblings supposed to do? Stay at home and be silent? Heck no, please. A reluctant hum from Jiro as an answer confirms Aoi's question.

The announcement at the train station chimes indicates that their train is about to arrive. With the announcement ended, both of them stood up from their bench and Aoi reached out his hand to Jiro in which the older gladly do, and went to take their train.

•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~

"Yumeno Gentaro, huh," Saburo muttered to himself with a book in his hand. Sumire was sitting on a chair beside him. Since she's still small, a few cushions were propped below her so she can see what Saburo was doing.

"Isn't he one of Sabu-nii favourite writers?" the little girl while swaying her little legs back and forth in a merry way. Her hands holding strawberry-flavoured milk while she sipping it slowly so that she won't finish it too quickly.

" Well, it wouldn't be bad to know more about him, right? But finding personal information on someone might be a lil bit harder... Let's give them a try," he muttered out the last part. Sure he likes the novelist novels but somehow he never felt the need to delve further into the writer's personal info. Since this is a job, he wouldn't mind knowing a lil bit more about his favorite author's background. With those thoughts in mind, Saburo sends the message to an online friend of his.

[ Can I ask you a favor? ]

[ What's up ]

[ I'm trying to find personal information on someone. You know a good way to find it? ]

[ Personal information, huh? If you're looking for that, try this dark web. The information is a high degree of accuracy. ]

[ Can you show me the site? ]

[ Sure, but it's not free you know~ ]

'Tch! What the hell? That coot doesn't even need money!!'

[ You don't need money anyway why bother asking me for that? ]

[ LOLOLOLOL!! You know me~. I don't need stuff like money. ]

[ Ya know what? If you can hack this website I build, I'll show ya the web~ ]

"Oh? You need to hack something Sabu-nii? Can I try?" Sumire chirped up, looking at the older Yamada with pleading eyes. Saburo let out a reluctant sigh.

"This one is a lot trickier than the other ones you've seen. Maybe next time when you're a little bit older, ok?" Saburo tried to reason only to earn a pout from the little. He knew that Sumire took interest in hacking but she's a lil too young to hack this web. Maybe when she's slightly older he will teach her how to hack.

[ ...Fine, but what happened if I can't get it done? ]

[ LMAO!! It's so you to ask bout what's gonna happen if ya fail. ]

[ If you're actually a good person, I won't ask. ]

[ Fine. I'll do it. Is there a time limit for this? ]

[ Sure thing~ get it done in at most 15 hours ]

[ I'm on it ]

And with that, Saburo hacked into the website that was sent to him while Sumire watches in awe.

•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~

The light sign in front of the pub that wrote 'The Mob' was always the first thing the Yamada see whenever they went to meet the lady. Jiro walked into the bar with Aoi tailing behind him while the bell chimes indicating they are in. A woman with wavy, shoulder-length hair sitting on a stool in front of the bar could be seen and Jiro sat on a stool next to her but purposely drag the stool a bit farther from her and lift Aoi so that he can sit on Jiro's lap.

"Oh my~ if it isn't Jiro-chan. You're turning sexier every time I see you~. And you keep turning cuter Aoi-chan," Jiro rolled his eyes over her words while Aoi's cheeks blush lightly. There was a glass of orange juice served in front of them and with a nod from Jiro, Aoi drank the drink happily while his uncle doing his job.

"Yeah, yeah thanks for having us. We're kinda busy today so let's just go straight to business. Do you have the location of Hifumi-san's stalker?" Jiro said with a bored tone. He doesn't have much time in his hand. If he really wanted to get into the team, he has to make this job done quickly.

Urumi slipped a piece of folded paper in front of him in which the young man took and read the content. He eyed the woman and the woman just smiled let out a hum in return.

"What? Are you expecting me to praise you?"

A giggle could be heard from the lady. She twirled the drink in front of her while talking with an amused tone in her voice.

"Within this division, anything that happened 'in the dark' or 'behind the shadow' I'll be notified about it pretty quick~," she said matter-a-factly. Jiro rolled his eyes again and pocketed the note in his jeans.

"So what do you want this time? Be considerate if you could, I couldn't give you the same thing last time,"

"Hmm~ I'll let you have this on the house," she hums out her answer. After a second of silence, Aoi spoke for the first time they been having the conversation.

"'There's no such thing as free lunch' mama always said that. So don't lie Urumi-san," Aoi stated with his soft voice. He didn't say the words out loud but it was loud enough for the 3 of them to hear.

"Aww~. Aren't you a cute little baby? Both you and your uncle sure love your mama huh~?" Urumi cried out while she happily ruffles Aoi's hair while cooing at him at the same time.

"Don't make fun of us! Mou! Jiro-nii trust you cause he sees you as a friend!" Aoi grumbles while pouting his cheek in a very adorable manner.

"Couldn't argue much with that. When it comes to this kind of stuff, I trust you more than anyone else in the world." Jiro let out a puff, agreeing with what his nephew had just said.

"Isn't that such a sweet thing to say? Anyway, I'll be letting you off this as a loan and if I ever need anything, you need to help me out, kay?" she said while pinching both of Jiro's and Aoi's cheeks.

"Ugh! I'm not a kid anymore!" Jiro cried out in dismay while both he and Aoi rub their cheeks. He put Aoi down onto the floor as they walk themselves to the door.

"Oh my, are you going already? But there are so many people here that want to see you still," the lady interjects with a really bummed tone.

"Nah, I'll come to mess around with you guys another time. Gotta need to check this lead, make sure it's real. Sides, I got Aoi with me right now so no," it was fun hanging out but Jiro currently has the responsibility to take care of Aoi right now in addition to his job so he has to pass the opportunity.

"What a shame. Well then, until later Jiro-chan, Aoi-chan," Urumi sighed but waved her hand toward the pair anyway in which Aoi gladly wave back at her.

"Phew. I'm done~ hm hm~ now just going here and," the teen hums while clicking some more before sending a message to his online friend, telling them that he had finished hacking.

•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~

[ I'm done.]

[ Woah, already?!]

[ It's been like an hour and a half.]

[ Seriously?! That's impressive, dude.. ]

[ I hacked it even though it's a lil hard. You sure are mean giving me this tough shit, aren't cha? ]

[ Actually, the web you just hacked is Japan's Department of Defense. I just falsified it to look like a different site. ]

"HUH?!!! THE DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE?!!" Saburo cried out in disbelief. 'WHAT THE HELL?!!' he cursed inwardly (since he doesn't want to curse in front of Sumire). He could've got arrested!!

[ Stop bullshitting me!! Am I gonna get arrested?!! ] (Saburo was pretty glad that Sumi can't completely understand his whole conversation right now. He doesn't want her to read him cursing while texting this)

[ Nah, you're good. I already prepared for this. ]

[ Even so- THAT"S NOT OKAY!!!! Stop pulling this kind of shit!! ]

[ Anyway, here's your reward, as promised. Let's hang out sometime again shall we~? ]

'Hump! There's no way in hell that's gonna happen,' Saburo thought inwardly.

"PLUNDERER? What a lame name," Saburo muttered out. Sumire has gone away from his uncle to go on a trip to her mom and brother.

'Address, background, personality.. even money can't buy all this information... I see..,'

He typed ' I want personal information on Yumeno Gentaro'

"Is that all?" Sumire asks once she's back from her trip. She climbed onto Saburo's lap and make herself comfortable as she saw the files were been transferred on the screen while Saburo was leaning on his seat

"Yep. Guess we just have to wait for the information to come in," he said as he ruffles her hair fondly. Sumire was humming contently when the notification chimes in indicating that the files have been fully transferred.

"That was fast," they cried out in unison in which resulting both of them to giggle and chuckle respectively.

'Information on Yumeno Gentaro's life from childhood until now'

" 'Inspired to write fictional novels for a friend who's suffering from an incurable disease. A very dramatic story,' " Saburo read it out loud. 'No wonder that most of his story consist of fictional stories,' the youngest of the Yamada sibling thought to himself.

[Confirm the amount of money you about to send]

Sumire just keeps her eyes on the screen while Saburo just puts in the amount of money he wanted to send. 'Never knew a hobby of trading stock could actually lead to this impressive amount of money,' Saburo muttered inwardly to himself. The sound of printer printing filled the room and Saburo put down Sumire from his lap when the little girl wriggles herself to be let down.

"I'm going out. Do you want to come along Sumi?" the little girl perks up at the question.

"Can Isa-nii go with us too?" she asked back with excitement in her voice. Sumire rarely rejects the idea of going out with his uncle but Isami rarely went out and Sumire always wants him to follow them once in a while. A nod from Saburo was enough as an answer for the little girl to ran from Saburo's room to Ichiro's office to grab her beloved onii-chan so that she can drag him with them. The Alpha could only chuckle fondly at his niece's cute attitude.

•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~

Jiro arrived at the said cheap apartment and was already at the front door of room '1010'.

He entered the room and it was pitch black dark. Man, he sure is glad to left Aoi in the lobby. ( yeah, it wasn't his best choice but it was better than let his nephew see a psycho woman hunting on someone he knew. Additionally, Aoi is scared of the dark most of the time so that is a big no.

The room is filled with Hifumi's photos and the worst part is that the whole room is filled with the stench of blood. Graffiti of Hifumi's name was written in blood and that was the only thing that filled the wall, floor, the bed, and basically the whole room.

'Yep. Leaving Aoi at the lobby is even better than bringing him here' Jiro screamed inwardly. The sight of blood itself is more than enough to make an average person feel sick, a kid would've been worse. Just when Jiro backing away, deciding that leaving the hotel is far better than staying. When he was busily distracted by the offending picture of the well-known host, he accidentally picked the wrong door, and inside he saw the very woman who has been stalking Izanami Hifumi adding more bloody graffiti to walls.

The scene itself is more than enough to cause all of Jiro's hair to stand up in fear. Taking this as a cue, he quickly ran away to the corridor and from the creepy woman. He ran as fast as his legs could carry him and now he was more than glad that he is an athlete. Somehow running away from the woman wasn't quite enough since Jiro saw her silhouette chasing him from behind with a bloody knife in his hand. Finding a dead end in front of him, he curses his luck but decided to jump off from the window instead. Jiro quickly holds onto the drainpipe on the side of the wall and uses it to help him go down to the ground. He took a quick turn to the lobby just to pick Aoi up and ran the hell away from the creepy, psycho woman.

•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~

They went to Café MARIA, a place where Saburo was supposed to meet someone but that person hasn't even arrived. The children got bored quite quickly and he couldn't blame them anyway. It's normal for kids to get bored from waiting too long but as a way to distract them, Saburo ordered a pancake for them to share while he ordered himself a cup of coffee. Sumire was beaming with pure joy when she took the first bite of the fluffy pancake. Sweets are always the best!

"Isa-nii! You should try this! It super yummy!!" the little girl cried out happily while her tiny arms stretch out a spoon to her brother. Isami looks slightly offended. Sure he likes sweets too but mama has reminded them not to eat too much dessert before dinner. He did warn her before but it seems that warning is pretty much futile on her by now.

"It's fine, it's fine~. It won't be much if we share it, right?" she reasoned with a wink and Isami could only let out an exasperated sigh. There's literally nothing in the world that can convince her otherwise.

'He's way too late! I've been waiting for almost 2 hours already!!' he inwardly screams while checking his phone. He needs to get this done before dinner. Knowing Ichi-nii, he might as well already started making dinner by now!

'That guy promised to give me the info on that guy's personality but.. is he even comin?!' he continues to mutter when the bell of the café chimes indicating someone just enter the shop.

"Hey~ aren't ya a cutie~?"

"What time do you finish your job? Want to go out for a meal with me?"

"Sir, this is very inappropriate-,"

"You can at least take my number,"

"Sir, I'm going to call the police!"

"Hey, hey~ no need for that,"

'What a dumb old man. I don't want to grow up being like that,'

"Yo! Sorry for making you wait. You're Yamada Saburo, right?"

"I'm Yumeno Gentaro's editor. Amayado Rei,"

'What's up with this guy? He doesn't even look like a person working in an office,' they all thought in unison. The man wore a pretty expensive outfit, pretty unfit for an office worker. His whole appearance scream 'rich'.

"Oh? Aren't you pretty young? And who's this you bring along?" the man asked while wiping the cream from Sumire's cheek with a tissue. The little girl only stares at him and the same goes for Isami.

"So, you got this manuscript that you wanted me to check, ne?"

"Ah! About that-. Actually, I'm sort of a fan of Yumeno sensei, I.. sorta have a question to ask if you really his editor,"

"Oh? Is that it? What's the question?"

"Do you mind checking on this for me?"

"You sure put everything together pretty well huh?"

"You're a pretty hardcore fan I tell ya that. This stuff isn't even available to the public,"

"I just want to know everything about my favourite author, so please tell me everything you can,"

"You're a pretty enthusiastic bout this huh?"

"Pretty much. Is what I wrote true?" Saburo said with a shrug.

"If I tell you that? What are you going to do with all this info anyway?" Rei asked back with a serious tone. This has caused Saburo to be taken back slightly by the sudden intimidation.

"Hey! Sabu-nii is really a fan! Don't ask him that! He even got a whole part on his shelf just for Yumeno sensei's book!!" Surprising everyone else, Sumire stood up from her seat and face Rei while poking his chest furiously. An angry pout was pretty much visible on her face. Rei's eyes widen in surprise while Saburo's face has turned into a crimson shade while Isami just looks at his little sister in surprise. She shouldn't have to say that!! Isami was just taken back by his little sister bravery but then again his family are pretty much known for 'action first, think later' but that doesn't stop the oldest among the triplet to pull down his hat and cover his face. Both the boy and the teen mentally cried out 'GOD!!! This is embarrassing!!'

"My, my aren't you adorable. Defending your brother like that~," Rei finally said when he got over the shock of being scolded by a 3 years old girl. He ruffled her hair in which she retaliates with a grumble.

"What you wrote there is all correct, I can promise you that," the old man said before handing back the manuscript to Saburo in which the teen gladly took back.

"Really?! Thank you very much." He said with a glad tone despite his inner annoyance toward the old man.

"Thanks for lending me your time. Let's go home, Isami, Sumire" he bows down slightly before all 3 of them got out from their table. Isami and Sumire also did a little bow before walking to Saburo. Just when Saburo was about to take the bill, his action was halted by Rei.

"Ah, leave the bill. I'll pay it up. Take it as an apology for making you three wait for me," he said causing Saburo to look at him with a confused look but the teen put the receipt back anyway. I mean, he offered to pay, why don't take it as an advantage, right? The old man then later got out from the table as well before he crouched down to both Isami and Sumire.

"Since both of you have been a good boy and girl, mind if this Ojii-san give you something?" he said while fumbling through his coat to grab something from inside of it.

"But... we shouldn't take things from stranger..," Isami muttered out quietly to which Sumire agreed with a quick nod of her head.

"Don't worry, you can ask your brother over there to check for any tracking devices alright? I assure you it's safe," he said again with a softer tone, a tone that most people will use in front of children. They both share a glance at each other, then to Saburo who gave them an unknown shrug. They both reach out their hand toward Rei in which he smiles before putting a ring, a bracelet, and a necklace on their hands. They look at the 3 items in confusion. Why would he give them 3 when there are only 2 of them?

"It's a lucky charm to keep you safe. I sorta have an extra so you guys can have the extra piece," he explained before ruffling both of their heads rather fondly in which cause Isami to widened his eyes slightly before reverting back to his normal poker face. they bow and said their thanks before the 3 of them head out. Just when they all finally left the store, Rei's smartphone started to ring.

I would really appreciate it if you stop doing whatever shit you want and there you are.

A woman's voice came from the phone in which Rei just answer it with his usually playful tone.

"So you've said. Relax~ I kept the real truth bout Yumeno Gentaro so it's all fine, right?"

That is not the problem here

Chuuoku has complete control over PLUNDERER

The next time you go off on your own, how much mercy do you think I'll give?

"Woah~ scary~. I'll make sure to engrave your words on my arse to remind myself,"

Your personality hasn't changed even in the tiniest bit. Moreover, your promise is the most pointless thing in the world

Well, I suppose, I know the reason why you wanted to meet the teen so badly

"I might've said it before but it's not the reason you're thinking of,"

Whatever the reason. I simply ask you not to act so fully of yourself

"I promise huh? It's just like her to say it," he muttered out after he ended the call before barking out a laugh so loud to the point almost the whole café could hear him.

"I'm a crook and this is a crook promise after all...," the man said with a crooked grin plastered across his face.

End note:

Oops~ did I say child? I mean, Samaichi's children!! Yep! Triplets. They had triplets!! So basically in summary, this is how the triplets look like;

Isami – a carbon copy of Samatoki but with Ichiro's eyes ( except that his left eye is green and his right eye is red. The opposite arrangement with Ichiro).

Sumire – Her looks resemble Nemu. She has shoulder-length black hair with a white underside. Her eyes are the typical Yamada green eyes. Her eyes are not heterochromia.

Aoi – a carbon copy of Ichiro but with Samatoki's eyes. With Samatoki long eyelashes as well.

I'll be frank, I, completely dislike posting here. It's not that I don't want to post my fics here but if it means I have to keep on reformating my fics, it's troublesome. I still want to post this but why does this have to be so difficult?
