Trust me, everything is connected, just that it doesn't look like it now.

His brother was good, but not as good as that girl who was attempting to claim the title of 'champion'. Though, Shinji would never mention that out loud. Reiji was his only family; everyone else just disappeared somewhere…

Still, he couldn't help but think about what would happen if this girl ended up battling Reiji. Would he win? Or would she beat him to a pulp?

"Trying to pick up battle tips from someone other than your old man?" Reiji asked as he sat next to Shinji.

The young boy simply looked down. His brother was good, but not the best. The girl, on the other hand, looked like she could achieve something close to Master Rank. "Maybe…" he said, his voice sounding like he took a cookie without permission.

"Well, I guess you have two role models then. Though, if you don't tell me I'm your first, then you can forget about that practice battle."

Shinji had to smile at this. Leave it to his brother to wash away any guilt. "Number one for sure."

They high-fived each other while the League announced their new champion, Shirona.

So they added another high-five, for good luck.
