@playmakersama { Yusaku } cont. from here
It wasn’t unusual for Yusaku to get into trouble, at least, inside VRAINS. However it wasn’t common in the real world as he normally kept to himself and stayed out of people’s way. But now he’d run into one of the thugs from a nearby school, quite literally too.
Just as he was being threatened a familiar figure got between them. It certainly looked like Takeru, but he seemed different. His glasses were gone and his hair was pushed back. He looked very intimidating.
“Oh yeah? And are you gonna stop me, punk?” the thug asked with a laugh.
Since the day he had came to Den City Takeru had decided, that he wanted to pursue his future, starting a new life. And a huge part of him just had been something he wanted to left in the past. In the end.. the moment he saw Yusaku being cornered by some not so nice looking guy he couldn’t help himself.
Before he really thought about what he was doing, he already had went through his hair with one of his hands, pushing back the hair like he used to have it for so long, as well as putting his glasses away. No need to risk them getting broken right?
And before he really knew it he was already standing between his friend and the other guy, who didn’t actually seemed to be impressed of his appearance on the scene.
It wasn’t like the teen wasn’t used to be underestimated. But back at his grandparents home city he already had gotten his reputation so most people just had avoided him nevertheless.
“Yes I will. So leave now and no one will get hurt.”
He never actually stopped his training. He never really told Yusaku of being rather good in material arts either. But still... he was rather sure that he could beat that guy up enough to make him leave. Those kind of guys usually just talked big. But were weak in the end.
