Confident strides, a proud posture, and topped with a smug smirk, someone would have blindly assumed that the kid with his hands obscured in his pockets was the regular, high school punk--if it wasn’t for the suited men accompanying him. Clad in pristine, black-and-white suits and naturally stoic expressions, the men attended the boy without complaints nor questions; a lackey with an expensive school backpack slung over his right shoulder, and another holding a stack of two or three textbooks that were probably never even opened to the first page. Needless to say, it was obvious that the heir of the Yakuza was going home after another night of fun. Enjoying the crisp atmosphere of after hours, Mayu grinned broadly and extended his limbs above his head, stretching as bones popped--dancing in a compacted crowd always made him so stiff, the sacrifices of club life~
It wasn’t long before something else snagged Mayu’s immediate attention, a brow quirking in curiosity as snickering and the--what was that? The sound of some whip, or something? “Oi, we’re going this way.” There was no room for argument, not that the suited men would, simply reciprocating with a, ‘yes, sir’ or curt nods as the group advanced to the suspicious resonances.
What awaited Mayu had taken him aback, a group of low-life thugs huddled around, brandishing makeshift weapons consisting of whips and broken bottles. His expression twisted with something akin to disgust, rolling his eyes at the display--how disgusting, these kinds of people were the worst. The lackeys did nothing to make a move, not without his permission, of course. Mayu should just walk away, this wasn’t his problem, after all--but what would his Father do? Surely, his Father would be proud of him for getting rid of such disgusting creatures from the streets? Not to mention, surely the victim on the end of the thugs would reward him in some way? With a grin, the boy spoke aloud, capturing the attention of the offenders. “Jeez… People like you guys make me sick to my stomach~” The B-Boy smirked smugly, his arms crossing over his svelte chest. “You’re all in my way, so maybe I should show you what happens when you get in the way of the Yakuza~?” That was the cue, the men in suits bringing out pistols from their sides unanimously, and without hesitation, began firing at the feet of the thugs with practiced precision. It was pure chaos, as the opposers started to scramble to get away, only armed with flimsy, man-made weapons that stood no chance to bullets. As they began scrambling out, Mayu’s eyes fluttered down to the… Oddly-shaped cat thing trembling in the corner. “Aw, what?!” He cried incredulously, the bullets in a ceasefire as soon as the thugs fled, awaiting further orders from the B-Boy. “Ugh! A cat?! Why the hell are people bullying cats now?! God, that’s just pathetic!” Great, he just wasted bullets and time on an animal…

Anger bubbled within Mayu’s bloodstream as his glare unwaveringly lingered at the sadistically grinning expression of the man, exhaustion weighing down on him heavily after the beating that was pummeled into him. The only support keeping his head up was the calloused digits threading into his unruly locks, painfully yanking his cranium up to maintain eye contact with his assaulter. “Not so tough for that Yakuza bastard’s little boy, are ya?” The laughter that aligned this fucker’s intonation was grating, only pissing Mayu off more.
The lackeys that always accompanied the boy were lying motionless nearby, the group having been ambushed by a violent and infamous gang that had made quite a mark in the city. Typically, the Yakuza and the gang did not interact much, but with this mistake, his Father would wipe everyone in this pathetic group off of existence. It was Mayu’s time to smirk now, and with the bastard’s face this close, it gave the B-Boy the perfect opportunity to spit right on his face, the bloody glob landing on his eye, causing a disgusted hiss to emanate from the man as he scrambled to his feet from his kneeling position. “H-Heh… Just wait until Father finds out, he’ll make sure that you guys absolutely suff--hrkh!!” The Yakuza’s heir was swiftly interrupted with an unrelenting kick to his gut, knocking the wind out of him as he could do nothing to protect himself with his arms and legs bound like this. “Tch! You damned brat! I’ll kill you myself!"
