CH. 1 - Mirai - Part Three
Around 9:00 pm at the biggest Karaoke venue in the J City.
The combined laughter of 4 young girls and 3 teenage boys filled one of the Karaoke rooms. Inside the karaoke room is very flickering, a lot of food and drinks as well as music that continues to play.
This time no one had a turn to sing. They all talked to each other about their personal lives.
"Heee, so you haven't dated before~"
Ask one of the teenage girls to one of the young men in front of him.
"That's right~ Our friend here has no experience of dating at all~"
Answered one of the teenage boys who teased his friend who was asked by one of the girl.
"Y-You..." Reply by the man feel embarrassed and annoyed after being teased by his friend.
"What if one of you helps our friend gain some meaningful experience here~"
Teased by one of his friends again.
"Heee~ I wonder~"
Answered one of the women who answered in a slightly teasing tone.
"Owww~ Looks like you were rejected~" Joked one of his friends again.
"You're jumping to the conclusions too fast, stupid!"
Reply annoyed with joking tone of a teenage boy who was being teased.
"What about you, Are you experienced?~" Asked one of the girl.
"The two of us? Of course we already dating before~" One of the young men answered.
"Wooowww, Great~ Then ... Do you both still have a girlfriend?~"
"E... Th-That's....." Answered doubtfully one of the teenage boys.
"Hehe...They might have been dating before, but always break up easily"
Revenge from their friend who they had teased before.
"Hooo... So you want to have a revenge huh~" Answer his friend who just teased in a joking tone.
"Oho...Sure it is~"
"You~"
His friend jumped and locked his neck with his arm while laughing.
The excitement of teasing and joking with each other is also tempting to fill the karaoke room. Then the girls were curious about one of the teenage boys who had been silent but looked "Cool" all this time. In their eyes he is so "Cool" and made the 4 girls put their eyes and feelings to him.
"Nee~ Nee~... How about you?~"
One of the girls who could not hold her curiosity and was very curious to one of the teenage boys asked him directly.
Actually there are 4 teenage girls and 4 teenage boys in the karaoke room. However, one teenage boy is always silent and sometimes just smiles casually if there is something happen that interests him.
Who is that young boy?
He is 19 years old wearing a dark green beanie hat with a medium-sized white skull in the middle, an overall black and yellow jacket in some parts with a "0" logo and two small wings on the "0" side, a dark green camo pants, black shoes, short-sleeved yellow shirt, he wear a harmonica that he had connected to a chain and wear it on his neck, he also wore a glasses.

He is the younger brother of Red'Ain and Alisia Mirai. His Name is Gol'D Mirai.
"Me... Are you asking me?"
Ask Gold back to the girl.
"Of course, do you have a girlfriend or not?"
Gold closed his eyes and smiled then answered-
"Of course I have"
"Heeeeeeeeeee?~" The four teenage girls were surprised and also a little disappointed to know that Gold already had a girlfriend.
"Our friend is indeed something~"
"Right. He still in a relationship with his girlfriend for about 4 years"
"Not like you two~" teased one of the girls.
"O-Oi...Don't be so rude ~"
"Then then, if you already have a girlfriend, why bother to join us here?~" Ask flirty one of the girls.
"Hmph-"
Gold raised his right leg and put his foot on the knee of his left leg, placed his hands on the sofa, then smiled as he tilted his head and answered-
"So what? I just want to have fun with you girls~"
Answer Gold who looks cool in the eyes of the girls.
"Kyaaaaaaa~ Gol'D you are so cool~"
"Wrong wrong wrong. His name is indeed Gol'D but we call him Gold to make it a lot easier"
"Heeeeee~ What's the problem with that? Right~"
"It's up to you girls what you want to call me. I will never change in your eyes"
"Kyaaaaaa~ Gold~"
In an instant, the four girls were already in Gold's arms, body, and legs hugging him.
"O! GOLD TAKES ALL THE PRICE AGAIN ~"
"DAMN GOLDDDD C'MON~"
His three friends felt jealous but mixed with jokes and laughter also teasing meant that they were not seriously feeling jealous and annoyed with Gold.
"Come on Gold, you already have a girlfriend~"
"Soooo?~"
"Come on man, share the girls with us~"
"Hmph~ Sorry, I'll take all the presents~"
"Kyaaaaaaaaa~" The girls cheered.
"Well then~ Let's start the 'Anti Gold' Plan. Carried it out!~"
"Affirmative~"
One of his friends gave the signal to carry out the "Anti Gold" plan where one of his friends immediately responded... Of course, in a joking tone.
"... 'Anti-Gold Plan'?" Gold asked in surprise.
One of his friends took a cellphone and then phone called one of the girls who were in his contact.
"Hello, Hikari, Gold now-"
Knowing who his friend was contacting, Gold immediately jumped to his friend and tried to take his friend's cellphone...With a slightly panicked face mixed with laughter.
"Ey Ey Ey~ You can't you can't~" His friend tried to hold on by keeping his cellphone out of the reach of Gold even though he knew that Gold body's was bigger than him.
Gold immediately locked his friend's neck in his arm then whispered softly to him-
"I give the youngest and we make peace"
"Agreed"
They carry out an exchange transactions. Gold for his safety from his girlfriend and his friends for one of the girls.
The two Gold friends immediately approached him and whispered quietly asking-
"How about us?"
"...Try getting it yourself"
"OK. LOG IN TO THE PLAN-"
"CHOOSE IT YOURSELF!" After the two friends managed to threaten Gold with a joke, Gold finally gave up.
At 23:00 outside the Karaoke building.
After hours of fun, they finally finished and decided to return home.
Before parting, they chatted a little outside.
"Thank you for today, girls~"
"Mmm~ Sure. That was fun~"
"Next time, call us again, Okay~"
"We will come~"
"Sure~"
After that, the four teenage girls parted ways with the men and walked home together. The four teenage boys also walked home together while chatting.
"Again, Gold take all the price~"
"What's the secret, Gold?"
"Nothing. I'm acting like I always do"
"No, no, no. It might be because your body is big, muscular, strong, and has a brownish exotic skin that is loved by women these days."
"This is all because I used to play outside when I was young."
"It's nice to be you, Gold"
"Why?"
"Strong, your body is big and muscular...Not like us... You also have twin brother and sister. Red Senpai and Alisia Senpai were very popular too in high school, right"
"Well, My Big brother and big sisters have their own charms"
"And you too"
"Speaking of which... How can your sister, Alisia senpai be so beautiful and cool?"
"Haha...If you want to find out... 'That is Hell that you trying to passed'"
"H-Heeeeeeee...?"
"It means it's impossible"
"Even though I'm just asking how beautiful she can be ..."
"Still. You try to ask me that about my sister, it means you have to deal with me first~"
"F-Forget about it then"
Gold and his two friends burst out laughing at the reaction of his friend who was a little scared.
"One thing. Have Red Senpai and Alisia Senpai been dating before?"
"Nope. Not yet"
"So you are the only one who has been dating...What kind of little brother are you? Having a girlfriend before your brother and sister"
"Hmph~ An amazing little brother of course ~"
"Hahaha…Very Gold"
"But...Didn't Red Senpai ever closes with someone?"
Gold paused for a moment trying to remember about the relationship of his big brother. He looked up at the sky thinking about while mumbling "Mmmmmm?"
"... I think... (?)...Yes I think...If I'm not mistaken...Yes"
"...What???"
"If I'm not mistaken...It was with-"
While they were walking, they passed one of the fashion shops. In the store there is a TV that shows a lot of several models that are the trend in this year. On one of the TV shows a model of young teenage girls who are famous and attract a lot of people's attention.
The four of them looked at the TV and from their reaction, they found out who the famous model was... At the same time got the answer from the previous question
"A! THAT'S HER!!!"
At 00:00, at the Mirai Family's home
"I am home"
Said Gold who had just arrived home.
"Welcome back" answered Alisia and Red from afar in the TV room.
Knowing the source of the sound, Gold went straight to the TV room to meet his big brother and sisters.
Alisia and Red are watching a special TV night program that is usually reserved for adults. On the table there is Beer which they use for drinking and cigarette ashtrays for Alisia as well as some snacks.
"Where have you been?" Asked Alisia to Gold.
"Having fun" Gold answered.
"What are you watching?" Gold asked back.
"Model show" Alisia answered.
When Gold looked at the TV, he realized that what they were watching was the same person that Gold and his friends had talked about earlier.
"Th...That's...Is that?-"
"Yup. We all know her" Alisia replied.
"Hmmm~"
Gold looks at his brother Red who looks quite serious looking at the TV.
"Hmmmm~"
For a moment Gold had the thought to tease his brother.
Gold can also see a model magazine on the table where he really knows that his brother Red doesn't like things like that.
"Oddly~ I guess you don't like models~"
"Indeed not"
"Then...~ Why buy a model magazine and watch a model show?~"
Red looks at Gold with a very straight face and gaze but there is a meaning behind it which means "Shut up!"
"Right~ It's possibly that-" Alisia also teased Red.
Red immediately sighs and answers-
"Just curious"
"Hooooooo~" Alisia and Gold answered in unison...
"Shut up!"
"If you still 'Interested' with her, why not just contact 'Her' again?"
Red is fallen silent and his face is still straight as usual. After being silent for a few seconds, Red answers-
"I Can't"
"Hah?" Alisia and Gold feel astonished.
"If I can...I will already call her...Since 1 and a half years ago"
"Heh?!" Gold and Alisia were shocked.
"Wait wait... So 'She' hasn't been able to be contacted since that long?"
"It must be hard to have the life of a model that is restrained like that. Right"
"It can't be helped. That's her dream."
Alisia and Gold know one thing about Red's feelings right now...But they don't want to add to the problem then they stop teasing him.
The next day, 10:00 a.m., at the Mirai family's home.
Gold is seen getting ready to go outside. He put on his favorite suit and after everything was settled, Gold went straight down to the first floor to meet with his brother and sisters in the kitchen having a breakfast.
"It's 10 o'clock and you guys just start having a breakfast now"
"We just woke up"
"The Model show last night turned out to be so long"
"Speaking of which. Where are you going today?"
"Hikari asked for a walk (Date)"
"Aahhhh..."
"You always dating"
"Rather than never~"
"OUT!!!"
After successfully teasing his brother and sister, Gold immediately left the house.
"Haha~ That's an interesting thing to start the day ~"
Gold stretched his body then took a deep breath then exhaled it away to gather his inner spirit.
"Ok. It's time for the most troublesome part to begin"
Gold and Hikari promised to meet at the biggest mall in the city of J. They promised to meet at 11:30. The distance from home is quite far. Gold planned to ride a motorcycle today but he canceled it because Hikari asked to enjoy their date more on foot.
Gold has to take a public transportation such as the bus to get to the Mall quickly. Estimated 45 minutes' drive, Gold finally arrived at the promised place. There's still about 15 minutes left and while waiting, Gold buys a soda in one of the soda machines.
He leaned against the wall around the Mall while drinking the soda he had bought waiting for Hikari to arrive.
He saw that there were a lot of people around the mall. Most of them are lovers who are dating. There are groups of friends, families consisting of parents and children, and some even alone.
No need to wait for a long time, in 5 minutes, Hikari came and called Gold from a distance of several meters.
"Gooollllldddd~"
"There she is. That's her voice"
Gold found out that it was Hikari's voice and looked at the source of the sound. Gold can see Hikari who just arrived while smiling wearing pretty clothes... But it's not the suit she usually wears.
Hikari Boshi, 19 years old, a very beautiful girl who has known Gold since she was in middle school. Having a feminine body and a height that is 30cm shorter than Gold makes her look very cute. Long hair that has bright and smooth blonde color, beautiful and bright blue eyes, smooth white skin, and cheerful and protective nature makes her look very attractive.
Gold and Hikari started dating when they had just been in the first year of high school and their relationship were very good so far. Although sometimes they often argue and disagree, they can make up quickly and keep their relationship back.
"Sorry, did you wait long?"
"No. I just came"
"Is it true?"
"When did I ever lie to you?"
"Aha~ I see. Then let's go~"
Hikari cheerfully hugged Gold's arm and they started their date today.
There are no plans at all. They go anywhere and do whatever they want that they meet along the way. Starting from watching movies in theaters but not the romantic genre films they watch but the action genre because it is their favorite genre, then shopping for a few things even though Hikari and Gold are not in the mood to buy anything, eating at a restaurant that is fairly expensive, etc.
They do not care to spend their money in a day or for anything because what they prioritize is having fun together with whatever they want to do together.
On the road, they talked a little about a few things.
"By the way..."
"Hmm?"
"Yesterday you went to karaoke with the others again, right?~"
"E! T-Thatttttttt... I'm just invited"
"Hooooooo~"
"T-They just need one more person to join...And…Well... I'll just join in...That's all..."
"Hmmmmmm~"
"... Sorry. Never again"
"Ahahahahahaha~ It's okay, it's fine. Besides, I'm fine too"
"Eh?"
"Besides, your nature is also sometimes like that. You always want to go out and having fun with others. So there's no way I can forbid your own nature and habits~"
Gold was surprised to learn that Hikari was not angry at all for what he had done yesterday. Gold could only see Hikari's broad and bright smile while Gold was also smiling after seeing Hikari smile.
"Hmph~ In that case, I won't do it anymore"
"Eh?"
"I will reject the next Karaoke invitation later"
"It's okay. You may be free to do anything"
"No. The others are OK, but not to meet with the other girl~"
Hearing Gold say such a thing made Hikari smile again and immediately embraced Gold's arm tightly.
"Where were we going now?~"
"Emmm ... I don't know. Where are you going? ~"
"Anywhere you want~"
That way, they continue their date.
Meanwhile, at the Mirai family's house...
Red at his usual routine, reading a mystery novel in the TV room on the Sofa. Meanwhile Alisia watched TV while smoking and drinking cappuccino coffee.
What Alisia is watching is the local news of J City where the news broadcast always relates to acts of violence and crime on the streets ranging from pickpocketing, rape, fighting, and much more.
"Looks like the one who did it was Isamu's own man," said Alisia.
"Which one?" Asked Red, who was focused on reading a novel.
"Crime on the road"
"Instead of guarding but the one who did, well ... Maybe that should be done"
"Well. I think so too...Maybe I will order you to do such things later, too. But, their main task is to maintain security rather than vice versa."
"If it's not Isamu's men, it means that none of his men can maintain security"
"Didn't you beat 3 men who threatened 2 high school girls yesterday?"
"Yup"
"Are they really Isamu's men?"
"It seems so"
"Look. Even without an order they act rude"
"Hmph. They feel that the one who has the most power is them but the fact is their boss."
"I'm getting more curious about Isamu"
"I heard Isamu is a man in his 30s."
"O-, I never think he still quite young"
"But I don't know the specifics of his physique and face. Apparently He has never been seen"
"He's the Boss type who rules from behind the table"
"You both have a similar type"
"Huh~ I sometimes like to go out to the field too, OK"
"Yeah yeah ..."
Meanwhile on the Bus which is boarded by Gold and Hikari.
The bus is quite full of people. Gold and Hikari gave their seats to a pair of elderly couple to be able to sit. Gold and Hikari are now standing inside the Bus while holding on a ropes for the standing passengers.
Unbeknownst to Hikari, behind her was a man who seemed to have a bad intention. Gold didn't pay much attention but his gaze was straight at Hikari who seemed to be unaware of something.
The man glanced to the right and left with a slightly sweaty face and eyes wide open. His heart seemed to beat fast and his breathing was heavy.
Hikari now only uses miniskirts and she wears a very high skirts.
The man apparently secretly wanted to do something bad to Hikari... And Gold didn't realize it.
Slowly, slowly, the man's right hand tried to reach Hikari's lower body.
For her own nature, Hikari is known not to be too brave to complain to people if something bad happens to her... Even to Gold. Because her nature is quite timid and sometimes lacking of confidence.
Slowly, the man's hand was almost at the bottom of Hikari's lower body part where Hikari and Gold were still unaware of that.
Gold looked straight down looking over the Bus floor and Hikari's gaze straight ahead looking towards the window.
Still slowly but very close, the man's hand in a few inches could touch Hikari's lower body part without anyone knowing and it seemed he was very sure that Hikari, his Target, would not scream.
When the man's hand wants to touch Hikari's lower body part-
A whistle of classic song "Eine Kleine Nachtmusik" came out from Gold. Hearing that made the man a little surprised and he moved a little also he tries to look at the source of the sound and pulled his hand slightly.
He could see Gold whistling while looking down and didn't realize the action he wanted to do.
Feeling calm and confident again, the man continued his action.
A few more inches, the man's hand will touch Hikari's lower body part where Hikari and Gold's still not aware of it.
Then, when that time comes ... The time where the man's hand will touch Hikari's lower body part and he already feels impatient to touch and feel Hikari's lower body part...
Until...-
Without he even realize...
His hand was raised up by someone very quickly.
"W-What?!" The man was shocked and his eyes opened so wide that he was so surprised he immediately froze not reacting.
Confused, the man try to saw why his hands were on top. When he raised his head to look up, he could see his wrists were held very tightly by someone and that person was...
Gol'D Mirai.
Because of that, People immediately looked at the two of them, especially Hikari who was very confused too.
The man tried to look at Gold who was holding his arm. When he saw it, he could see Gold with a serious and angry face where his eyes were staring at him very sharply like an eagle looking at its prey.
Feeling scared but unable to do anything and reacting to anything, the man could only shout "Let go!" to Gold. He struggled to pull his hand back and tried to use his other hand to release Gold's grasp.
But it all didn't work.
Gold was holding his wrist tightly until he could feel the bone in his arm in his grasp.
"AAAAAGGGHHH!!!"
The man screamed in pain due to his arms held tightly by Gold.
All people are getting more curious, some of them are afraid. Hikari also felt very confused and her face looked scared as if describing that she was trying to say "Gold stop" but couldn't.
The man's screams started getting louder than before and he looked more in pain than before. Gold holds it so tightly that his wrists turn red and his hands look limp.
Then at the last grip, Gold strengthened it and a loud voice could be heard ..
CRACK!
"AAAAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHH!!!"
After the sound, followed by screams filled with pain from the man.
His arm which had turned red now turned blue and looked like...
Broken.
After that, Gold let go of the man's arm and let him lay in pain on the bus floor.
Gold then yells at the driver-
"STOP THE BUS!"
Hearing that command... Because the driver also felt a little scared... The driver immediately obeyed Gold's orders and stopped the bus.
Gold then drags the man by pulling his hair with one hand. Gold brought the man to the front of the bus door and asked the driver to open the door which he immediately obeyed.
With a very strong and powerful force, Gold threw the man out of the bus and hit the ground very hard where the sound could be heard by the people in the bus.
People who are on the side of the road are also surprised to see someone being thrown out of the bus by force and brute force like that.
After throwing the man out, Gold ordered the driver to continue drove the bus.
The driver closed the bus door and drove again.
After the problem was over, the driver asked Gold-
"S-Sorry...B-But... That man just now...Who is he and why?"
Gold answers right away.
"Molester"
"I-It's that so... I-I feel relief that you immediately stop him"
"Hm"
The fear of everyone on the bus turned into a feeling of relief. First they thought that it was a fight that had no meaning but turned out to be a self-protection. Hikari also felt relieved and grateful.
When Gold returned to Hikari's side, Hikari immediately hugged Gold's arm very tightly filled with a smile.
"Are you okay?" Asked Gold.
"It's okay~ All thanks to you~"
"Good"
"Ehe~ I have a strong man who is always by my side ~"
"S-Shut up" Gold turn a little shy.
"Ehehehehe ~"
At the Mirai Family's house, 8:00 p.m.
"I am home"
"O, welcome back. It was something rare that you don't return home at night," answered and asked Alisia.
"Not now"
"Why you don't stay at Hikari's house today?" asked Red.
"Not now"
"Why Hikari doesn't stay here today?" Alisai asked again.
"Not now"
"Why-"
"NOT NOW!"
Red and Alisia chuckle after successfully teasing Gold even though Red only looks smile a little.
"Where have you been?" Alisia asked.
"Everywhere" Gold answered.
"No plans for today date again?"
"Nope"
"Hmmm...Same as usual then"
Gold took off his jacket and beanies and put them on the table in front of the TV. He was then offered a snack by Red where he took it then sat on one of the couches.
"Did something interesting happen?" Alisia asked again.
"Emmm... I just broke the arm of someone who was trying to molested Hikari"
"Wooooww~ I think you broke his neck"
"I want it too. But the business will be more difficult later"
"Aren't you the one who often says 'Police Affairs later'?"
"Yes ... But not now"
"'Not yet' ... Maybe"
"... Yeah, not yet"
"Take it easy... That will happen later ... Soon"
