The gang is complete now and it's now going to focus on them as a whole! Also, there will be some canon characters mentioned in this chapter too [like it was brief but...]

Also there is a bit of gore on this chapter? Not too descriptive though but just a warning !

Hanako/Lotus belongs to polar-stars!

Emile/Canción belongs to polar-star-dorks!

Months. It's been months ever since the group was able to be complete. Their team may be small, but it was a sight to behold. They were people with maximum potential. A leader, an assassin, a negotiator, a solider and a planner- each of them had their own special ability to make the team complete. They did have to go through certain training to be prepared fr the worst, but they went through this all together.

What was special about today? Well, it was no ordinary day for them- not completely. It may have contained the strums of a guitar, the continuous sound of writing, footsteps all over the place- but there was something new about this day. But there was one thing that made it not ordinary- this is the first time that they'd go to an actual mission. An official mission...

And man, would it be fun.

"Okay, listen. Emile, you have to deal with the guards." A woman with purple eyes began talking as she walked around the room. "They'd believe your words, all you have to tell them is hat District 23 is currently in trouble- that's where one of the family members of someone in that gang is." She glanced at Emile. "I also do believe that you'd be able to convince them that you looked terrified, so with that- you can distract them and share fake information with them. You'd be basically gain some things you may not know about them, because if people are in panic- there's a possibility they'd be more honest and not even think about answers."

The man with light brown hair nodded as he smiled sweetly. "Alright, mi amiga. I'd be able to do that." No one would actually expect him to lie, and that's why he was perfect for the role. He could even negotiate people with money, but currently that was not his job. "After that, I'd have to talk to someone, right? About the money exchange they didn't give?" He tilted his head and she nodded. He was going to fake his own identity as well in this situation as an ally. But luckily, he prepared what he was going to say weeks ago. "I got this!"

"Thank god..." She sighed out of relief, thinking that since it's their first official mission, she might not be doing her job as great as always. "Okay, Tetsuji." She shifted her attention. "You'd be the first one to enter, but it's so you can remove their first wall of defense. With you strength and your talent with a gun, you'd be able to do all of this in a couple of seconds. It gives a way for Masae to enter the area, and she's supposed to be hidden, since she's an assassin."

Tetsuji already knew what he needed to do. From all of the members, he was the strongest in physical strength alone and he could probably beat several people in only a couple of minutes. "I can do that." He assures the gang before giving a smile. "I'm certain that I'd be able to go through all of this, especially the main guards wouldn't be against me, but they'd be talking about a formal matter with Emile."

The planner placed her pen inside her pocket before glazing at a female, who was turning a knife around her hand. "You're an assassin, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't need to tell you what you need to do." She knew that Masae was one of the first recruits, and she was someone who had some experience with combat. "However, I've got their floor plan, so you better avoid the traps." She handed some papers to her.

"The floor plan...? In your hands?" Masae got the papers, her face still looking surprised. She quickly stopped spinning her knife to remember the image in front of her. "It's hard to gain this information... But thank you so much, this will be a great help." With the help of Emile, who has always had the chance to meet the enemy face-to-face in friendly terms, Hanako and him were able to steal this important information. "I know what to do though... I'll slay them."

Last but not least, she eyed their leader who was currently waiting for her command. "And you, leader... It's best to act like a guard. You're going to be our last resort if anything turns wrong. You're going to act as a guard and once you bring me to the camera room, you have to leave and do your job. I'll remain contact with you all of you through the ear piece." She crossed her arms. "So you better not lose them." Kaoru already knew what he needed to do. He'd act as an enemy and bring in a fake "hostage", who'd be Hanako but end up bringing her to the camera room by going through a path of the blind spots of the enemy.

"I wouldn't have ever thought of this in only a month." He smirked, and he was truly impressed with her. "You're fucking brilliant."

She gave a tiny smile, returning it to her leader. "Of course." She replied. "You've trusted me, after all." She patted her pocket, which contained two objects- a pen and a Swiss knife. Through the mission, she'd have to be sure that those two were there- as well as a gun that was given to her once she joined the gang. "But I'm going to repeat the instructions in more details once we arrive in the area so none of you would forget it."

Someone began running to the gates, he began clutching his chest and breathing heavily. "District 23... There is something going on in there!" He almost yelled those words while pointing at a direction. "There were people from the Okinawa gang who came over... And I believe that they swore to take out someone named Haru..." He tried to catch his breath, and the guards started panicking, looking at each other.

"Haru Araki... She's our main assassin's sister." One of the guards began talking and his face grew pale. "We should inform him quick, but some of you should go ahead before it's too late." Once the guard said those words, the 3 others people guarding the gate splitted up and went to their respective locations. "Sir, thak you for informing us about it." The guard thanked, a bit relieved. "If we didn't know about this, Araki-sama would have killed us for not knowing..." The guard started to talk and Emile was still trying to steady his breathing.

Even if it was an act, he really had to run all the way here to make it seem very realistic.

"No need... to thank me." He stood up straight, still holding his chest. "I'm just trying my best to be a good ally, even if we've just made the deal some weeks ago." There was a tiny smile on his face, and he was really convinving. "But I do have some matters to discuss with your negotiator..." The negotiator of the other gang was the lover of Haru Araki, even if this information was hidden, Emile knew this well after having a few talks with him. "He might be in panic as of the moment, so I wouldn't know if I should approach him or not..."

The guard shook his head. "I do believe that even if he knows about this, he'd still do his job." He informed before he leaded him inside. "We'll have to tell him about the situation- but maybe you should do that instead. I have to be the one to..." The guard's heartbeat got faster by the mere thought of having to talk to the assassin of the group. "... Araki-sama. I have to tell him his sister is in danger... But you can follow me, I'll lead you to our negotiator's room." He began walking ahead and Emile only followed. He got pass throught the first gate already. This was already a mission success for step one.

"Thank you so much! I'll be sure to inform him." They were passing the hallways and he spotted the ever so familiar room that he entered multiple times as he continued holding the fake identity of someone else. He was great in letting people believe he was on their side, and convincing them that he was the person that they expected to come. What they didn't know was someone in his gang already brought them down, and that as long as they were gone- he could replace them.

Every negotiator has their own ways of doing their part, and Emile was sneaky and much more than a simple one. He went a step higher than every negotiator out there. Canción was the code name that was given to him, and he would sometimes use that when he was talking to a true ally. Sometimes, he's use a fake identity. His kind self was shown to complete strangers, and it was very bold of them to assume that whatever words he said were true.

Once he opened the door, he spotted the face he's seen for some weeks. It was the negotiator, and he soon switched on his negotiator mode on.

"Good evening! I'm Jin Hirofumi, one of the informants of your new allied Yakuza gang." There was a polite smile on his face. "I'm the same person who decided to talk to you about the money exchange last week, I hope you remember my face."

"I do." The negotiator began placing his hands together. "What's the information you're going to share this time?"

Emile brought up papers, which were filled with fake news created by the planner. "First of, I'm afraid to inform you that Haru Araki is in danger..."

That was the cue of Tetsuji to do his part.

Tetsuji entered the gates which was left unguarded after some of the guards scattered around the place to save the woman who wasn't even in danger. "I'm going in." The microphone was attached to a part of his suit. He came in with no warning, and this was able to give him a large advantage. Even if people were shooting at him, he was able to dodge all the bullets with his large body. He brought out his gun and started to shoot people down.

No one expecting him to come in, and people thought that they could have brought him down so easily... But damn, were they wrong.

He ended up being able to kill several by himself, and none of his gang members doubted his skill. From that alone, he deserved his code name. He was able to defeat the first batch of defense and he only needed some second to go in the building. No one was prepared to see this coming except Emile, who acted scared that someone intruded. "You're doing well, Canción." He says to the microphone as he continued to shoot people down.

He had to make an opening for the person hiding behind his back. Luckily her figure was small enough to not be spotted, and her speed completely matched his and she could follow his steps so she wouldn't be spotted. This was an interesting match, a pack of people versus a man and his "shadow". There were knives that flew from the man, and at first they thought it might have been an illusion of a bullet.

They knew that their sight wasn't betraying them once they saw a knife goingg exactly on someone's neck. This little move was able to terrify the men, and they could only try to shoot him down and wish that he wan't as skillful as he was. The more seconds passed, more of people went down on their knees, and Tetsuji had to kill them out of mercy- or else their pride with eternally be ruined.

He may have some bullets hit him, but none of them were fatal. This didn't help the person behind him who was already worried about his well-being. "It's almost your turn." He reminded her, as he began reloading his gun. "You have to go ahead of me, but I'll make sure to keep you guarded." He reassured her and she gripped a handful of his shirt. "Don't worry. I'll be fine. I chose this life and I trained even before I wanted to join."

He continued to bring people down but once they went to the second floor, he began speaking up. "What made you lose this war," He grabs the weapon that was being kept inside a case which was tied to his body. "Is being unprepared." The gun wasn't ordinary, and the people who spotted it has no time to report it before their deaths. It should have been expected.

Despite Tetsuji being seemingly a large target that can be shot easily, he still hs the body of steel that can handle several hits. But there was another advantage of being this big. It was the fact that people couldn't see what could be behind you because of your big body frame. That was one of the things he felt proud of, and Kaoru commented on.

He could hide a weapon if he never turned around. All that was needed to dodge bullets is going up by jumping, moving to different directions- but turning around was never a requirement. Tetsuji Kabutoyama was a perfect example of an immovable object- the person behind him however... was an unstoppable force.

"It's your turn."

She had to leave Tetsuji alone, but even if people tried to shoot her down, her movements were way too fast. She had a role that should have extreme reflexes and speed, so people who did know she was should never be surprised. She and the other gang members may have had several "small missions", and this was considered the first official one- but honestly, in her eyes- It did seem similar with the rest. The only difference is that they were not doing it with any allies.

"Please stay safe, you all..." She whispered, and everyone was able to hear what she had to say to the group. She usually spoke more when she was around her gang, but as of the moment- she has to focus on her job. She was able to hear the shooting of the guns, their negotiator trying to calm the person with him down for the act, and some running steps through the microphone.

She brought out her main knives- three of them had deadly poison, the other two had paralysis. She never had a favorite idea of making people bleed to their deaths, she'd rather let everything end in an instant- or maybe let something slowly sink in her enemies' bodies. Luckily, her gang never tortured anyone, but instead they were in charge of other things. She might not have been able to handle the sight.

In her eyes, her gang was never the evil ones. Their leader made sure to get a history of any family they had to go against, before agreeing to any terms. They always had a large fault in the society, and he would usually bring down the other gangs that focused oh human trafficking. He admitted to the gang that he believed that was one of the worst things that the Yakuza did, but he also wanted to bring down some others.

The only reason why the gang stayed together is despite being part of such a dark world, they tried to bring light to it. It would always bring a smile to their face when someone thanks them- A wife who missed her husband, a husband who kissing his wife after they come back, parents hugging their kids tightly once they've found their missing child, a child reaching for their parents while crying because they've missed them... They saved people, and they went beyond the morals of any kind of human being.

Detectives may solve the case, the police may catch the suspects- but sometimes it took too long while the clock continuously ticks. So people were desperate enough to call up the Yakuza, and pay them to do what they wanted, but couldn't. She understood that fully, once her parents died and yet the case was unsolved- and they couldn't find the suspect.

Despite what people can see in their own perspectives, the whole gang did believe they were doing the right thing- more of the greater good. Their leader always made sure that they were...

She was done going around, and she finally faced the person who she's supposed to kill- it was the main person who was in charge of the whole human trafficking business. She wanted to aim for the boss, but someone else had the job. She brought out her first knife, her expression turning deadlier as she spotted the person who was talking to a client.

"It's over."

A man opened the door for someone, and he even ended up tossing the keys at her. "You do you, Lotus." He grinned at her. "Good luck, I believe in you." He says before closing the door, and he prepared his gun. She had no time to lose and she already dragged herself to the screens before typing it in. She turned on her microphone so she'd be able to talk to all of her fellow gang members.

"Canción, you're allowed to move out now. Lead the negotiator of the enemy to Sukiru. All you have to do is try and exit the place with him. You won't be able to be caught because everyone is busy scattering around." Once she reported this, she watched as he did as she says through the camera.

"Next, of course. Sukiru. Just continue what you're doing, but as soon as Canción exits and reaches the car to prepare to escape, take down the negotiator because if he survives- it would be a trouble. We already have all the information we need." She zoomed in to see how he was doing. "While Gaia, you have brought down our main target, be sure to release people from their cells, and go ahead and help Sukiru bring down the rest of the people in the gang. They may have just been 60 people in total, but Tetsuji was able to bring out half in one go with the help of you."

"I'm currently releasing people, and I'm on it." Masae spun around before preparing her gun. "I will bring the rest down."

"Good. Aroon brought down the allies that were inside the building, and he's currently going to have to face the boss." Hanako held her breath. This wasn't the first time she did this, but knowing he was alone... It could lead to anywhere. "So please be careful, leader."

The leader of the gang kicked the door, and he instantly prepared his gun. "Hello there, Sir." The boss was glaring at the person who just entered. "I don't recognize your face at all. It makes me surprised that someone as young as you was able to outmatch my whole gang." He shouldn't show that he already lost his cool- if a boss lost their cool, it could possibly lead to their deaths.

"It wasn't me who outmatched your gang." He had to tell the truth to the boss. "It was everyone who's in mine." He pointed the gun at the boss. "So, would you want to die fighting or would you want to die in honor of your deceased members?"

The boss stood up before bringing out his gun. "How about this." He shot the camera which was located in his office. "We fight with each other's lives on stake... without any fucking communications."

The eyes of Kaoru narrowed as he took out the ear piece. "If that's your last wish, then I'm fully fine with it." This was the only rule the planner gave to him, and he already disobeyed it. But he had to do it so the boss wouldn't do anything dirty. "Bring it."

This was the match that could prove to everyone that he really deserved to be his own gang leader.

That match started with some few shots, and since the room was pretty closed, it was harder to dodge some bullets. Kaoru still hasn't shot- and he wasn't sure if it was the better choice. It was either he saved his bullets up, or that he felt his hear pounding too hard against his chest to even pull the trigger.

"What are you doing? You're not even pulling the damn trigger." His enemy remarked before he felt the anger building up in him. "If you can't shoot me, then killing the rest of my gang was useless."

One shot was able to hit Kaoru on the cheek, and now he had a slice through it. He didn't respond to any of his words and he was too busy observing every detail of the room, looking for a possible thing to do.

"I wouldn't say it's useless." He finally gave him his words. "I'd say that it's me bringing you even more shame as a boss." Kaoru shot the light and it made both of them not being able to see anything inside the room. Some glass shattered on the floor and none of the two would be able to predict where the other is.

"You fucking idiot! This is a game of chance now!"

"Oh, I know... I know that very well. But I get very excited for the thrill of death."

The boss couldn't spot him, but all he could was hear the foot steps, and even some stack of books falling down. "You're going to end up dying. I memorize the room which I've been staying for 20 years." He shot where the shelf was supposed to be and he heard a loud thud.

Some minutes passed by and there was no sign of moving and this gave the boss the chance.

He couldn't tell if he were dead or not. He was moving away to reach for the door and no one stopped him- so he thought it was all over.But it wasn't.

He felt a cold metal on the back of his head, and the boss gulped and felt a shiver down his spine.

"Who said I was talking about my own death?"

"Kaoru..." Emile was fixing objects inside the car. "¿Dónde está mi amigo?" He almost yelled the question. It was a rare occasion where he woul raise his voice, but it was only because of how loud it was outside the car and out of worry. There was no sight of their gang leader anywhere while Tetsuji was already starting the car.

"I don't know..." Hanako was also panicking. "I gave you all one rule. It was to not remove the ear piece but he did it... I... I don't know what to do..." She ended up covering her face with her hands. She never liked failing, and she focused on her goal. Her goal to make sure her plan was perfect and everyone will come out alive, but it didn't seem like it was happening.

"No... Ruru..." The voice of Masae was trembling and she began hitting the door of the car. "No... Let me out, Tetsuji! Please! I might be quick enough to come back in-"

"Remember the command of our leader?" Tetsuji brought up, even if his voice sounded hurt. "To leave even if he's not here yet."

"But this is our first mission, he shouldn't be left be-"

They heard several knocks on the car door and it was to the point where the window was almost punched.

"KAORU?!"

"QUICK LET ME IN, THE COPS ARE COMING!"

The people inside the gang were currently inside the basement inside of Kaoru, and two people were refusing to let him go.

"Mi amigo! Don't scare us like that!" Emile began crying, and he only hugged the male tighter. "We only did our first mission today... but you made us thing you died!"

Kaoru laughed nervously before petting the head of Emile. "It wasn't by choice, you know? I only followed whatever the boss wanted me to do..." He felt the girl who was hugging him squeeze him much tighter. "Sae, please... I need air..."

"I don't think mi amiga will stop... You worried us too much..."

"Guitar Hero! No! You're crying again, come on..." He began wiping the tears of his two friends and he only looked at the other two of his friends.

"Kaoru..." The girl who specifically reminded him multiple times about the ear piece had her eyes watery. "If you worry me that much again... I won't be this easy on you." She was going in full panic when she saw how much chances he had of dying. "You made me think my plan was ruined with that action of yours..."

Tetsuji was currently being the only one calm inside the group, and he tried to calm down. "Looking at it, at least we're all here."

"Yeah... Please listen to Wolverine... Stop squeezing me to death and please don't be angry..."

First mission, success.

The living room was oddly empty, and no one opened the door despite the several knocks. "Open the door, damn it!" A man with glasses yelled and he pushed his glasses up. "Aroon, this bitch..." His voice became more quiet after he said those words. "Fucking." He hissed, but it was because he hated wasting his time. Well, to be fair- he should have called up before he came, but he wanted to inform the gang leader that... He's going to have to protect a woman named Kinokuni Nene.
