With him staying at his teacher's home for the time being, Tatsu was forced to go to school. However it wasn't for the worst. He was going to clean up his school or as he preferred to call it, his turf.

Wonder was getting passed around by the blonds, and with his ability to now beat the living crap out of every boy and girl, there was no issue in stopping the drug trade. The idea was to make a dent in this scheme, by taking out a source of income.

This should in theory bring out Hinata and or the boss. A lead at the least.

Tatsu: Hey. You sell "Wonder"?

Blond: Walk this way.

Tatsu: Not now. After school, behind the baseball place.

Blond: Uhmm... Sure.

As she walks away, Tatsu goes up to the next blond and invites her to the same place. Doing this to everyone but Hana and Hinata, Tatsu would in theory get all the bad eggs in one place.

The Dragon of Seiryo wasn't that subtle however, and people took notice.

After school, Tatsu went behind the batting cage to find all the blonds in his school who all glared at Tatsu.

Blond 1: You think you're clever?

Blond 2: Is this some kind of prank!?

Tatsu:(cracks knuckles) You all think you can sell drugs on my turf, huh?

They all pull out stun batons. One of blond smugly approached Tatsu. Waving her weapon in his face.

Blond 3: You shouldn't mess with us. We "sting".

Blond 3: But listen, if you have the cash, we are all willing to sell you our merchandise-

(WHAM)

Lifting his leg with great force, Tatsu knocks this blond onto her back. Catching her stun baton, which flew out of her hand, Tatsu pressed it to her chest to every blonds shock.

Blond 3: GA-HA-AUGH-UG-UG!?!

Tatsu:(glares)

Blonds:!!?

Tossing the baton away, Tatsu makes his demands.

Tatsu: Seiryo High is now a drug free zone!! If I catch any one of you selling...

Tatsu: I'll personally make sure even the STREETS won't want you anymore!!

Tatsu: Now drop your damn supply.... And tell whoever you work for to comes settle things in person with me!

The blonds look at each other, conflicted with what they should do. Listen to him or their instructions. One was a force they could see, the other was one they couldn't.

Tatsu: Oh? Are you all the type that likes getting wacked around? Well you won't be once you get a taste of what I can do!

He takes a step towards the closet blond who, afraid for her safety took a step away. She shook with fear, until one of the blonds Tatsu didn't invite arrived.

Hana: Leave them alone!!

Tatsu: Tch!

Shifting his direction, the merciless Dragon that was Tatsu, swung his fist without hesitation, rightfully so as Hana came in swinging with a baseball bat.

(CLANG)

The metal bat rang loudly as it impacted with Tatsu's fist. The two both felt the vibrations go down their body. Everyone stared with shock as Hana matched the power of the Dragon, and Tatsu punched a metal bat without flintching.

These two were stuck in one pose as they tried to overpower the other.

Tatsu: You weren't invited.

Hana: What? A girl gets a few bruises and she ain't pretty enough for ya'!?

Tatsu: You out of all these sluts should know what happens when you cross me.

Hana: I'm grateful that you came to my rescue, Tatsu... But that won't stop me from protecting these girls!

Tatsu: Protecting these girls...?

Tatsu: Huh...?

Hana:!?

Feeling more strength coming from Tatsu, Hana was caught off guard.

Tatsu: I don't know why... But you went and pissed me off!!!

Hana was pushed back, stumbling a few steps, Hana caught her balance as Tatsu came in swinging.

Stepping to the side, Hana allowed Tatsu to swing past her, giving her an opening to the back of his head.

Taking her chance, Hana swung, Tatsu anticipated this, and in his Dancing Dragon style, fliped forward, kicking the bat off course.

Hana: Tch!

She curves the bat onto her shoulder as Tatsu lands in a crouched position.

Hana: Punk!

Tatsu: Drug mule.

She swings her bat as Tatsu stood up and thought a high kick to clash with her weapon.

[Vs Hana Henya]

With their confidence regained, the Blonds make a circle and hold out their batons to prevent Tatsu from escaping.

He had no plan to do so.

(WOOSH)

Hana revealed the skills and strength under her beauty which Tatsu missed when leaping out of the building with Akira.

Like a sword master, Hana swung her blade side to side in a Kendo style.

(THUD)

(THUD)

(THUD)

(THUD)

(THUD)

(THUD)

Tatsu raised his arms to block the swings towards his head. And raised a leg to deflect anything lower. Every hit left a bruise, and repeated strikes threatened to shatter bone.

Tired of following her rhythm, the Dragon changed the flow. His Dancing Dragon style's influence came clear as glass, as Tatsu started off with a ballerina like spin, then dropping in a wild breakdance spin.

His legs like helicopter blades spun fast and hard.

Taken aback, Hana was forced to be defensive, as kicks flew into her wildly, randomly and in every direction.

She blocked as much as she could, but Tatsu's dancing skills were beyond her years of freestyle.

Hana: Why the hell are you so good at dancing?

Tatsu: Dancing?

Upside down in a handstand with his legs bent, Tatsu looked at Hana confused.

(WHAM)²

[Essence Of Hydra]

Extending his legs as he lowered them, Tatsu kicked Hana's shoulders like two birds pecking through flesh.

The impact made Hana's legs buckle under pressure.

At that moment, Tatsu slipped his legs under her arms before swinging his legs back and throwing Henya into a group of blonds, who he wished hadn't caught her like a rockstar jumping off stage.

Tatsu: Tch... It would have been cooler if you all fell...

Lowering her back to the ground, Hana smiled.

Hana:(smiles) Thanks girls~

Blonds: Whooo! Kick his ass, Henya-ane!

[Hana gained a boost in moral!]

[It made Tatsu more determined to beat her....]

Charging at Tatsu who still held strong in his hand stand, Hana thrusted her bat towards Tatsu's knees.

Spreading his legs in a v shape, Tatsu avoided the hit. Yet this was her plan from the start as he was quite literally "wide open", as was her wicked grin.

Hana:(grinning)

With her bat over his crotch, Hana put one hand on the side of her weapon and pushed down,

Tatsu quickly closed his legs and twisted his body to catch the bat just before impact. With her bat stuck, Henya stepped onto Tatsu's foot, hugged his legs, and stomped onto his chin.

[Essence Of Chiropractor]

Pulling him upward, as she pushed down on his chin, along with her other foot on his hand pinning him, the whole crowd heard cracking and popping.

Tatsu: Hgh!

With that pained groan, Hana pushed down her leg on his chin smashing his face with the ground. Swinging that leg up, she kicked her bat out from his legs and into the air. Catching it, Hana wind-up, and swung the bat into his back, if it weren't for her foot on his hand, he would have flown. Instead, he was now face-first against the ground.

Pulling his hand out from Hana's foot, Tatsu go back up.

Backing up, Hana raised her bat to the blonds who tapped their stun batons against it, electrifying it.

Hana: I'm slaying this Dragon!

Tatsu:(spits blood)

Running up to Tatsu, Hana swings down her bat, only for the dragon to drop to one knee and slam his palm into her stomach.

Hana:(grunts)

Standing up, Tatsu grabs Hana's chin, lifting up so she would look at him.

Tatsu: Bitch.

Hana: Tch, fuck-Hmhmmm!?!

[Essence Of Mixed Signals]

Kissing Hana, Tatsu forced a blush on her and every blond in a twenty meter radius.

Blonds: THAT DISGUSTING BASTARD!!

Tatsu then pulled Hana in a deep embrace as he continued to make-out with Henya.

Blonds: W-Wait... Is this... A LOOOOOVVVEEEE STORY!?

(CRUNCH)

Hana's back cracked and popped as Tatsu hugged tightly whilst their tongues wrestled.

Blonds: HE'S A MONSTER!!

Hana's face became extremely red.

Blonds: HE'S EXTREMELY SUAVE?!

Hana's face became blue quickly after Tatsu began pitching her nose.

Blonds: HE'S A JERK!

Hana:!

Pulling away, Tatsu comes from the kiss with her tounge in between his teeth. Hana panted heavily as their faces were still vary close.

Tatsu's tugged on her toung as he leand his head back and swung it forward, breaking her nose with a headbutt.

(BAM)

Blonds: THAT- Wait... If her tounge was in between his...that would mean she would have had to...

Blonds:(blush)

Blonds: HENYA-ANE! WE LOVE YOU BUT YOU CAN DO BETTER THAN HIM!!

Hana laid on the ground wide eyed at what just transpired.

Hana:(mind) What the fuck... What the fuck!? I... I am so conflicted... Why did he... Does he...?

She looks at Tatsu who blows her a kiss.

Hana:(blush)

She turns away.

Hana:(mind) Well... I guess I can fix him-

Tatsu: Psych.

He rainbow kicks Hana's head, putting a real kink in her neck.

Hana: Agh...ugh..?!

Raising his leg, Tatsu prepared to put a true end to this, but saw the blonds get ready to fight, now on their own as a group.

Tatsu: Hm?

Stepping over Hana, Tatsu goes to beat up the rest of the blonds, but her opponent still had fight in her and began to hug his leg to hold him in place.

Hana: Stop... Please...

Tatsu: I won't show mercy to sluts who would sell the drug my sister got addicted to.

Hana: Forgive them... Please, I'll take the punishment in full.

Pulling his leg away, Tatsu watches as Hana bows deeply with her head against the ground.

Hana: PLEASE! They don't deserve to get hurt...

Tatsu: Why?

Hana: B-Because I was the one to convince most of them to get into this...

Hana: They don't know anything...

Tatsu: You convince them?

Hana: My Dad is sick... I needed the money... Kosuke-senpai offered me this job...

Hana: And to convince more to do it... I would get a bonus if I did...

Hana: Most of them did it to help with their financial state to... So just blame me... I'll take all your punishment for them...

Tatsu:....

He looks around, at all the Blonds to notice some of them with shivers.

Tatsu: Tch!

His fist clenches ready to taste impact of violence once more, but a voice calls out.

Akira: That should be enough.

The arrival of this Tiger on this side of town was a surprise to Henya and Kosuke.

Akira: I've seen enough, and have a good grasp of things. Sorry for smacking you.

Hana: Sorry...? Seriously?

Akira: You noticed, right? Some of these girls are using.

Tatsu: I look like blind man to you...?

Akira: No offense, but you do seem like the type to not notice the little stuff.

Tatsu:(glares)

Akira: We got off on the wrong punch. I'm looking to get these drugs off the streets too.

Tatsu: Then start with gathering all their supply and burning it. I'm done here...

Hana and Akira sensed something wrong with Tatsu who left the scene, not noticing the other third party watching from afar. Deep in thought, many things went through his mind.

The Blonds weren't just dealers, but users.

Hana's resolve to try and protect them also caused Tatsu's emotions to stir. These emotions led him to his sister's apartment. But not for her. Using a spare key, Tatsu went inside.

Looking around, the place was in the same state as he left it.

Entering the room where their father was, he found the man there laying. Motion- and emotionless.

Looking over his sisters stuff, Tatsu picked up a card for a hostess club.

Tatsu:(shrugs)

Walking over to his father, for what he realized was the first time since the incident, the teenager stared down with confliction.

Tatsu: I know...

Tatsu: I know that you would wish you weren't a burden. But you are...

Tatsu: Hinata's in a bad place... And the only thing I could possibly do, is beat up the problem.

Tatsu: I'm feeling like my strength isn't good enough. Even after all I did to get to this point...

Tatsu: I'm missing something... And I'm feeling useless like you.

Tatsu: Sorry... But it's true! Like, you can't deny it. Literally in this case...

Tatsu: Thinking about it, this is why I came here. To talk with someone like me... Like father, like son....

Tatsu:...

In silence, Tatsu heard it, ticking. His brow raised with confusion. Looking around, Tatsu found it in the last place he looked. Under his father's bed was a bomb.

Tatsu: Ooohhh.... Shit!

Grabbing his father, Tatsu put him onto his back and raced out of the room.

(KABOOOM)

But just as he left, the explosion went off. It was nothing massive, but it was definitely powerful. Sending Tatsu flying into the wall with his father.

Receiving a nasty knock to the head, Tatsu fell onto his stomach as he tried to get up and leave.

A few minutes past before Tatsu got up to find his father's room ablaze.

Rolling him off of his back, Tatsu takes a moment to catch his barrings. That's when he noticed the smile on his father's face, proof of something left in that bullet shot head of theirs.

Tatsu couldn't help but laugh.

Tatsu: Bahaha! Crazy bastar, you found that explosion amusing?

He placed a hand on his father.

Tatsu: Let's go- huh?

There was a warm thick wetness when Tatsu touched his father. Looking at his hand, he found blood. That is when this Dragon saw a stillness beyond what he usually had. The father's smile was shed in a new light. It wasn't one of joy but satisfaction. Turning him over, Tatsu found all the shrapnel wounds on his father's back.

Tatsu:...

When Tatsu arrived outside where the firefighters had arrived at the scene, his home was now gone forever. Set on fire along with what remained of his father.

Tatsu:....

Tatsu: Tch!

[Tatsu has lost his cool...]

[He might take things too far]

To be continued....
