Secret Reveals Chapter 30:
Season 2 Episode 1: aka Episode 25:
It is What it is
After the break the host given them a permission to seat on the floor whenever they wanted to as the new seat plan, they just seat scattered, with few popcorn and foods and drinks with them. The host then give them a minute before the screen lit up again with the words: "WELCOME TO SEASON 2"
The screen lit up to begin few recaps. When the recaps has come to an end they were greeted by a new scene in front of them.
The screen is black but shouts could be heard "What the hell?" A voice shout, but then there's complete silence.
The screen slowly lit up to show a ceiling (?). Then Future Takemichi's face was shown as he catches his breath and his eyes were wide.
Everyone sighed in relief. They knew Takemichi came out alive, but they thought he'd be atleast in a coma or somthing for a while. The just gkad he wasn't.
'Where am I?' He seat up "Shit!" he cursed 'That's right! Kisaki shot me in the leg. Wait...But after that, someone...' a voice interrupted his thoughts
"I gave you first aid." the person had said he look up to the person "What?"
Takemichi was greeted by the sight of the person's back. Long silky black hair, jacket, pants, shoes, with his hands on pocket. He look exactly just one person. Except his hair was a bit shorter.
"Baji-kun?"
The screen fades to black words shows up: TOKYO REVENGERS
{For Episode 1 we had skipped the opening}
#25: It is what it is
Everyone's eyes widened (Except Baji and Takemichi) and look at Baji.
"I died...so..." He didn't need to continue as everyone understand and turns back to screen.
Ryusei however, turned to Kazutora and scan him up and down.
'Could be.'
'No.'
The face of the man was slowly shown, he had long blond bangs and a mole under his eye which held the color of gold.
"Oh shit!" Baji cursed
Ryusei just smirk and a smile cross Chifuyu and Takemichi's face. The others loom amused at Kazutora who look at them confused.
"What? Why?" he blurted out making everyone laugh.
"So we gonna see Future Kazutora!" Mikey cheered and Kazutora just gasped in realization.
Takemichi's eyes widened as the man turned to him. "Kazutora-kun..." Takemichi had said
Kazutora's eyes held no emotion in them.
'Oh, right. It's been 12 years, so he's out of prison.'
"It's been a while."
Kazutora punches Takemichi in the face, then staright in nose, then kick him hard. Sounds of more beatings could be heard.
"I- and oop- nice greetings there Tora" Baji greeted his teeth
"I probably had my reasons." Kazutora shrug
"Which you did" Takemichi sighs
Kazutora finally speaks.
"The other day, some guys were beating the crap out of a chick like this in the street. When I jumped in to break it up, they said they were members of Toman. When did your Toman turn into a gang that beats on women? I don't give a shit about you. It was...Chifuyu I wanted to save."
A flashback shows up
Baji turned to Kazutora 'What? He what? But the last time I check the screen says otherwise.'
Kazutora was shown with short pure black hair walking out of juvie, a bag in his hand. He look up in surprise when a car suddenly stopped in front of him.
"It's you..."
Chifuyu was seen leaning on the window of his car.
"It's been a while, Kazutora. Need a ride?"
The scene changes.
"Toman has gone to the dogs. They're a criminal gang with zero ethics, and the cops can't touch them. I want us to turn Toman back into what it used to be." Chifuty had said to him.
The flashback ends and it switches back to Kazutora.
"He'd been fighting all alone this whole time. But you...What the hell were you doing?!"
Takemichi's eyes widened. 'I get it now. In this timeline, I ended up so rotten, Chifuyu couldn't rely on me.'
'Partner.'
'Oh fuck. I will definitely won't leave this two alone ever! Ryusei too!'
"Toman got so big, it lost its way. Still, you guys were the first to serve as Kisaki's lackeys. Draken, our only hope, ended up on death row. And nobody knows where Mikey is now. So, Takemichi, where is Toman headed? Remember how Mikey once said he'd build a new era for hoodlums? Just like he said, Toman has gotten huge. Drug dealing, prostitution, illegal casinos, loansharking, murder. Toman does every kind of crime and has grown huge doing it. But...But...Is this the era that Mikey wanted to build? Id this the Toman that Baji wanted to protect?"
"Toman became big rotten tomato damn" Mikey gritted his teeth.
A flashback was shown
"So, I'm going to build a new era for hoodlums." Mikey had said to him.
The flashback ends only to begin with another flashback
"I want a gang where each of us is willing to risk our lives for each other." Kid Baji had said
The flashback ends once again
Kazutora speaks "Back then, this wasn't the kind of Toman they wanted to build. Isn't that right, Takemichi?"
'It's "we" Kazutora. You also one of us who build Toman.' Draken silently glance at the boy.
Takemichi's tears fell down his face. 'He's right. It's not!'
"It's not! The Toman I loved wasn't like this! It was always something to be proud of!"
"Yes. Let's take back our Toman."
The scene changes.
"Kazutora-kun, I...I don't really remember things well, so I might ask some weird questions. How did Toman end up like this? Well, I mean...I'm still kind of in shock, so my head is pretty fuzzy."
"It was Mikey."
"What?"
"Mikey changed completely. Toman changed because Mikey changed."
"It can't be! Someone else must be behind it! Isn't Kisaki pulling the strings or something?"
"A month ago, Mitsuya went missing. Mikey sent for him, but he hasn't seen since then."
"What?"
Kazutora's phone suddenly rings and he answers it. "Hello? I see."
He then end up the call and turned back to Takemichi.
"So it's me..." Mikey gulped.
"While Kisaki had you tied up last night, Pah-chin and Peh-yan were murdered."
A flashback of crime seen was shown as well as Pah and Peh's dead body. It then ended as scene switches back to Kazutora.
"This means Mikey had started purging the old Toman members. He doesn't trust his old friends anymore."
"It can't be...How could Mikey-kun do that to everyone?"
"It's all being done at Mikey's command. Kisaki is just carrying out the orders. Mikey has gone truly evil. As one of the people who changed him, I want to talk to him. He needs to get away from them!"
" "Them"?"
"The violence of Kisaki. And the money of BLACK DRAGON. Unless something is done about them, Mikey will never return to normal. He's not a hoodlum anymore."
He then started the car before turning to Takemichi.
"Help me out, Takemichi. It's my turn to help Mikey now. I want to save Sano Manjiro."
"Tora..." To say everyone was surprised and proud at his change was they started celebrating hearing that from Kazutora's futureself. Kazutora just blushed and tries to hide himself by hugging a pillow he summon out of nowhere.
The scene changes once again.
"The remnants of the old biker gang, BLACK DRAGON, joined up with Toman and became Mikey's heavy hitters. Those guys will do anything for money."
"Well...Wasn't BLACK DRAGON the reason why Toman was formed?"
"That's right. I had connections with BLACK DRAGON in the past. But they're definitely not like they used to be. The mounds of cash they can produce are one of the things taht corrupted Mikey. I used my connections to find their hidden bank account. I plan to solve this by stopping the flow of that money. And the one who was going to handle Kisaki, Mikey's right-hand man, was Chifuyu."
It was silent for a while before Kazutora speaks again.
"Chifuyu was killed because he'd backed Kisaki into a corner."
"Really?"
"HE WHAT?!" Ryusei and Baji shouted
"That's why I went to that building to rescue Chifuyu."
"How did Chifuyu...How did he have Kisaki cornered?"
"One day, a police detective approached us."
"What?"
"He's the brother of a woman Kisaki had murdered."
A flashback was shown again
"I want revenge." Naoto had said
The flashback ends
'That's Naoto!'
"Naoto..." Hinata look at his brother a sad look on her face. (Oh she's with the audience now)
"Wait! You mean you and Chifuyu helped that detective?"
"Yeah. We looked into the murder of Tachibana Hinata. We figured out who gave the orders. Sendo Atsushi, a Toman member, rammed a car into a microcar driven by a highschool teacher. They caught fire and blew up. They both died in that accident. You remember it, right?"
'It's seared into my memory!'
"Kisaki gave the order. But he has an alibi. He was meeting with you guys in the top brass that day."
"What?"
'He was meeting with us? That must mean in this timeline when Hina and Akkun died, I wasn't even there.'
"But Chifuyu had proof...that it was Kisaki who gave the order."
"Proof?"
"We had Kisaki cornered and were on the verge of getting him. But it's Chifuyu's fault for letting him slip through our fingers."
"What?"
They then pulled a stop.
"Get out, Takemichi. There's a guy in that alley I want you to see."
"Me?"
Takemichi get out of the car and went in the alley.
'He wants me to see someone? Who could it be?'
He was greeted by a man who's leaning in the wall.
"Naoto!" 'I've found him at last!'
Kazutora was shown just in the entrance of the alley.
"I have a bad feeling." Mitsuya whispered to Ryusei who proceeds to seat with him instead of Baji. Ryusei just nods.
"I've been waiting for you, Takemichi-kun."
Naoto then released handcuffs and put it around Takemichi's hand.
"Naoto...What?"
"Hanagaki Takemichi, I'm placing you under arrest for instigating murder!"
"What?"
"I'm sorry, Hanemiya-kun."
In the netrance Kazutora tries getting in only to be blocked by few officers.
"You bastard!" Kazutora gritted his teeth.
"WHAT?!" Everyone bursted out the bad feeling within Mitsuya and Ryusei started growing once again.
"I'm under arrest...for murder?"
"Too bad, Takemichi-kun."
"Naoto...Why?"
The screen fades to black as the scene changes to an office.
"Watch this." Naoto played the video.
In the video Chifuyu was seen.
"That's Chifuyu. What's this a video of?"
The door went open and Takemichi walks in. "Good afternoon." Chifuyu greeted him "You too." He had said back before seating. "It's sure as hell hot. Go on,sit down." The guy they see as Takemichi had silky black hair and sharp eyes. He looks intimidating.
"He doesn't look like Takemitchy at all~"
"People changes appearance Mikey."
"I didn't want to have to call you about this, but it was ordered. We got no choice." Takemichi grinned in the video.
"Is that...me?"
"Matsuno Chifuyu secretly taped this." Naoto then went to seat at the other side of the table.
"I don't know how to explain this. But in any case, as always, the moment you returned to the present, my timeline changed in an instant. The changes you made in the past made big changes in the present. I'm still a cop, just as before. But you don't work at a rental shop this time. You're a bigwig in Toman. Yet, just like before, on August 10th, my sister was killed in her car by Sendo Atsushi. Then, I teamed up with Hanemiya Kazutora and Matsuno Chifuyu to arrest Kisaki for my sister's death. I'm sorry, Takemichi-kun. You must be in shock. Considering my position, I had no choice but to arrest you. Watch the rest of the video."
"Okay..." Takemichi do as he told.
Takemichi in the video speaks "There's only one reason I called you here. I want you to kill someone."
The other person speaks "Who?" Takemichi just pointed at him "I don't know who it is. I couldn't careless either! What's important is that they're a nuisance in Toman!" He slammed his fist on the table.
"Oi Oi what the fuck?!" Smiley cursed
Takemichi continued to watch in shock as the Takemichi from the video speaks again. It's not like I want to make you do this. If it's not done, Kisaki will be on my ass. Got it, Atsushi?"
That's when Takemichi's eyes widened even more "Atsushi? That's Akkun!"
The video continued and Akkun speaks "Who am I supposed to kill?" Takemichi's voice was heard next "I told you! I don't know! Someone will contact you with the details later. We'll get you everything you need to do it."
"Actually..." "What is it?"
Akkun said: "I haven't heard from my wife since last night." "What?" Takemichi asked.
"Come on, Takemichi! Talk to the bosses for me! My wife is pregnant with our second --" he was cut off by Takemichi "Shut up! It's your duty as a plebe to do what you're told, goddamn it!" Naoto paused the video.
Mizo Middle flinched at the reminder of Akkun's family. However, Akkun flinched for another reason.
'My Third/Second Death...'
"I ordered Akkun...to kill someone?"
"Here is another video. Matsuno Chifuyu secretly taped this too. Watch it carefully."
Takemichi in the video was seen with his normal hair, throwing and destroying things around and shouting from the top of his lungs.
"Cut it out, Takemitchy!" Chifuyu had shout at him.
"Fuck off!"
"Destroying the furniture won't help!"
"Goddamn it! I was set up! That Kisaki is the devil! I didn't know he was supposed to kill her!"
Outside the video Takemichi's eyes went emotionless "Naoto, that's enough." He sat back down and look at the ground.
"Her?" Emma asked, Seju secretly pointed at Hinata and Yuzuha nods, Emma whipped her head and Hina who's eyes were covered in shadow.
"We were after evidence proving Kisaki's involvement in Hinata's murder. These videos are proof."
"I told you, that's enough!"
"Matsuno Chifuyu had been hiding these videos from me. He was protecting you."
'Chifuyu was protecting him, huh?'
Takemichi catched his breath as Hinata and Akkun's deaths flashed his mind.
He fell to the ground and onto his knees.
He chuckles "This time, it's me. I'm the one...who killed...Hina. Isn't that right?" He cries
As if a final blow, Hina cries and buried his face into Emma.
"Takemichi-kun. You were used. That's all."
"I've had it. I can't do this. How many times has this been? But nothing has changed. In fact, it has gotten even worse. I killed...Hina. And akkun and Chifuyu and all those guys died too!"
He stood up but fell down soon enough, luckily, Naoto was there to catch him.
"And there's nothing I can do for Baji-kun either! I can only go back to today 12 years ago! There's no way I can save him!"
Naoto gritted his teeth and grabbed Takemichi in shoulder.
"Screaming and crying won't help! This is just as rough on me."
This made Hinata look up and stared at screen.
"No, it's not! I murdered your sister! Let's just give up, Naoto! I can't change anything!"
Naoto hug him, tears in his eyes as he also started crying.
"You saved me! What you've done HAS helped! In the first timeline, neither Tokyo Manji Gang or Ryuguji Ken existed. There was no Matsuno Chifuyu, no Hanemiya Kazutora, and no Baji Keisuke either. None of them still existed, Takemichi-kun. Without their influence, we would never have gotten this far into Toman. The one who kept their influence alive was you! You're the only one who can change Toman and who can save Hinata! Please, transform this hellish world, Takemichi-kun!"
"Naoto..." Hinata wishes her brother had no need to deal with this.
Takemichi look at him. The scene changes. Takemichi was now standing by his own feet.
"Naoto, the last time I traveled back in time, I became the captain of Toman's First Division. I was a step closer to becoming the leader of Toman. So, I thought thjngs would be better in the present. But Hina was still killed. And what's worse, it was me who killed her."
"This is just conjecture, but do you think Kisaki had you kill my sister on purpose?"
"What?"
"It has a great posaibility" Smiley said others nods and think the same.
"Don't you think it's odd? No matter how many times you go back, Kisaki always ends up having my sister killed. Could it be a coincidence? No. It has happened too often to be a coincidence. It never fails."
"You mean..."
"Kisaki Tetta is clearly...has some obsession with you and my sister."
"Took us long enough though" Takemichi sweat dropped.
"What?"
A flashback shows as Kisaki "shot" him.
"my hero." was his last words.
The screen fades back to reality.
"I want us to plan things out, but there's no time. You'll be sent to the detention center now."
"The detention center?"
"It'll be difficult for us to meet like this anymore. Now is your only chance to go back." He held his hand
"What? But...All right."
"What ever happened between you and Kisaki Tetta in the past must be the key to the mystery behind my sister's death."
"Right." Takemichi then shake Naoto's hand.
The screen fades to black as Takemichi's eyes slowly widened.
Future Chifuyu was shown. 'Thank you, Chifuyu.'
Then Future Kazutora. 'And Kazutora-kun. Thanks to you two, I know who the enemy is.'
Future Inupi, Koko, and Hakkai was shown. 'The ex-BLACK DRAGON members and Kisaki Tetta.' Then it changed to Future Kisaki.
'That's what corrupted Mikey-kun. I'll drive them out of Toman to save Hina.' Past Hina was shown.
'and save everyone!' He was greeted by the bowling ball hitting all targets.
"What? Another strike!" Hina cheered
"What? Bowling?" He then look at his own hand
"You're amazing, Takemichi-kun! That's a turkey!" She held his hands up and Takemichi high fived her.
"Yeah..."
"Okay! What do we expect except of a mood swing scene?!" Hakkai laughed and so did everyone.
Hinata then pick up a bowling ball "I'm just awful at this."
'After seeing just how horrible the present is, Hina's smile makes me want to...'
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing at all."
Hina runs and puts the ball down "Go!"
"She's so cute!"
"Darn it! Another gutter ball!"
'Come to think of it, I was really into bowling at this time. I had my own bowling glove and shoes and even my own ball. I was really serious about it. Okay! I'm still just as sharp as then!'
"It's your turn, Takemichi-kun."
"Watch this, Hina. This will be my fourth! I'll get four strikes in a row!"
On his opposite side another person throws the ball just as same time as he throws the ball.
'What?'
Hakkai looks in shock. 'Appearance...it was my appearance time.'
"Oh, wow!"
'The next lane got a strike too?!'
"We both got strikes."
Then the person was shown from toe to head.
"We were perfectly in sync!" Takemichi jaw drops.
(Closing was also skipped for this episode)
The screen fades to black.
"Okay is anyone need anything?"
"More popcorns/coffee and cola/water for me!" they all shout and their "request" popped out in front of them.
The screen then lit up for another episode...
