《Would You Rather?》Ghostly~
Advertisement
On Sunday I had a scheduled training session once more, I wasn't really expecting not only for the whole first Gen Black Dragon to be here but also Senju, Chifuyu, and Keisuke. I guess Chifuyu was dragged along by Senju and Keisuke decided to tag along, or was he invited by Chifuyu because he sure looked like he was ready to share some juicy news.
Somehow I was mostly shocked to see Takeomi, hence Senju shared in the text messages how he became, even more, busier recently.
Once I changed to my workout clothes, I get to hear two good announcements.
"I finally managed to pay off my debts." Takeomi mentioned looked quite proud of himself.
"You didn't do it by taking a loan from a loan shark, right?" He shook his head reassuring his friends he managed to get hired at a good company, I was actually proud, didn't he only manage to pay off in manga when he was in Brahman, this time no gang money was involved, hopefully.
The second thing we heard was from Senju, she grabbed Chifuyu's hand confidently and firmly before saying.
"As of yesterday, we began dating." Of course, I had to ask.
"Who confessed first?" Senju declared.
"Me." I thought she wanted to wait, then again maybe I influenced her to conduct her own move. Considering in our recent conversation I mentioned that I wouldn't shy away from confessing first if I really liked the person. I congratulated them, Keisuke did too, but suddenly took out his frustration on Chifuyu maybe because his love life wasn't going as smoothly as he wanted it to.
"How dare you get a girlfriend before me." Chifuyu looked like he was about to cry, it wasn't often Keisuke acted this way after all. So I stepped in.
"What Keisuke means is that he's really happy for your sake, but can't stomach the fact of how jealous he is of you right now." Takeomi wanted to be happy for his sister's sake but maybe couldn't imagine her dating anybody for that matter.
"Don't worry big bro, your sister caught the best catch out there," I said giving him a thumbs up.
"Were you also eyeing that catch yourself?" Keisuke dared to ask, which caused me to roll my eyes at him.
"Yes totally because I have a hobby of stealing my friends' crushes," I said sarcastically as he quickly backed out with this ridiculous claim.
We began the training, Wakasa being the one leading the session this time around. He wanted to train my reflexes today, which meant he would mostly throw punches and kicks and I had to either block them or avoid them altogether. He didn't use all his speed, knowing full well I wouldn't be able to keep up otherwise, but it still posed some kind of challenge.
At some point I caught a glimpse of Takeomi going out, most likely for his smoke break, provoking a mission to arrive from nowhere.
'Would you rather go with Takeomi Akashi on his smoke break, while stealing his cigarette and smoking it yourself or later during the day get totally drunk?' What were those rebellious teenagers' bad decision-making choices? Like I would perform any of those. I came to the conclusion that the punishment wheel was my only alternative, but did I really have to spin it here?
Wakasa could tell I got more distracted by the second, so he stopped.
"Is something on your mind?" He asked as I nodded, but requested for the training to continue when I concluded to actually spin the wheel, if it landed on something bad I could always go back, thankfully it was an option. But I hoped it would land on gender-bend or back pain because then no noticeable changes would be made.

But of all the things it managed to land on was "Death."
"Shit," I said after blocking one of Wakasa's incoming kicks, I quickly requested the system to pursue the getting drunk mission but instead a notification popped up, which said.
"No! (・'ω'・)!" It sent me a freaking emoji and started a countdown.
"3, 2, 1!" Right on cue I lost consciousness and was kicked by Wakasa that haven't realized anything out of ordinary, suddenly I could see everything from a different standpoint. I saw my body falling to the ground as soon as Wakasa's kick made contact with my body.
"Michi?" He asked confused, I guess he first suspected it must have been one of my jokes because he stated.
"Come on we don't have time for this." But probably realized I wasn't one to play out such cruel jokes. Everyone started to panic, Wakasa came closer and looked devastated when he couldn't find a pulse.
"Benkei call for an ambulance!" He yelled and quickly started to perform CPR on my body. I felt so bad, knowing full well my body would only be in this state for around 12 hours. Takeomi must have heard the ongoing commotion because he opened the door still having the cigarette in his mouth.
"What's happening?" Senju quickly explained the situation, as other people just stood there perplexed by the situation.
"I don't understand she seemed just fine, what's this about?" Keisuke asked as he fell to his knees. Although Wakasa seemed to be quite traumatized by the situation he was the one yelling commands and directing other people.
"Senju give a call to her parents, maybe there is some kind of medical condition she has we aren't aware of." Senju went to the corner and gave them a call, she looked so teary-eyed already, but she was trying to keep her composure to explain the situation at hand properly.
I realized I could float around by just thinking about it, so I came closer, which caused me to hear what my mom was saying on the other end of the phone call.
"Michi's mom, she suddenly fell to the ground and isn't breathing, Waka doesn't seem to be able to feel any pulse whatsoever... is there any medical condition we are not aware of, is she taking any pills that can cure her?" Probably not, but if mom waited for 12 hours I would come back to life. At least that's what the system promised me would happen.
"I'm coming over, whatever happened, know that everything will be okay." She must have realized what took place since I explained the gist of it to her before.
Of course, the medical staff arrived first when they heard the seriousness of the situation. So I heard the sirens coming close and the medical staff busting thru the door. The first thing they did was take over the CPR, as another was checking for any signs of life, considering they couldn't find any they started to resuscitate my body. I was so focused on what the medics were doing that I failed to catch it when most people started crying.
"Nothing is working." I heard one of the medical staff say. After a few minutes of this, all they could do was announce me dead.
"Why is the system pulling my friends through this?" I wanted to pull my hair out, but couldn't since I was only a ghost, great. I couldn't stomach watching this scene, I felt so incredibly guilty seeing them all cry for my stead when I knew all this was just a temporary development. I had no idea what kind of things my parents would tell those kids and adults to calm them down. I saw our car pulling up when the medics looked like they wanted to take my body somewhere.

"Thank god they made it." I didn't want my body to be driven to some kind of morgue or anything.
I witnessed my mom running thru the door and putting my cold body in her arms.
"Are you the parents of this child? Uncomfortably we couldn't do anything. Would you like us to arrange for moving the body somewhere else?" Mom gave dad a glance and he started to say.
"We will take care of it ourselves." He seemed composed and explained this in such a charismatic way, they acted like grieving parents, probably because they had no clue how to explain to them that in fact, their daughter wasn't dead. Once the medical staff left Wakasa said.
"I'm so sorry, we were in the middle of training when suddenly I kicked her and she collapsed to the floor." He seemed to bear a lot of guilt, it was hard to watch this, I wish I could have communicated with anyone for that matter, but I realized instantly that no one could see me. Mom wiped away her tears and proudly declared.
"Don't worry, our daughter is not dead, we just had no idea how to explain to the medical staff." Then the bullshitting began.
"She has a rare condition, which causes her sometimes to faint and lay in a coma for a couple of days, where it's hard to detect any of her living signs, no one knows what's it caused by and it's not the first time it happened." Great, they were using my nonexistent medical history to their advantage.
"But if so couldn't the medical staff electrocuting her have great consequences?" My parents who knew everything could be fixed with health potions didn't know what to say, but soon dad used his brains and explained.
"What was done is done, all we can do is check on her condition often and make sure it doesn't deteriorate." Thankfully there was a catch in this punishment, even if I was proclaimed dead my body didn't decompose.
"As you see although the medics announced her dead her body color isn't changing." Everyone nodded their heads.
"How much time will it take for her to wake up?" Although they knew it would only take 12 hours they decided that it wouldn't make sense to know an estimated time.
"Could be weeks or days, we will have to see." Thankfully they managed to calm the crowd down. I was delighted all the drama was over. But wouldn't this cause people to think differently of me? What if my whole gimmick would become a sickly girl, just like it was in school. Sure it had its own benefits, but I didn't want to be put into that category outside of school. I decided to return back home with my parents but first patted everyone's heads, kind of, not like they could feel anything.
When we reached home I realized, was I supposed to sit here and look at my kind of dead body for the next 12 hours? I could see myself going crazy with such a constant sight.
However I could float, where was I supposed to go from then on?
"Let's spy on people!" I told myself and flew out the window into Black Dragon hideout, I wanted to know how this guy behaved himself when I wasn't around.
"I will find all your dirty secrets!" I told him as soon I flew inside only to spot him sitting there shirtless holding the shark plush I bought him last time.
"I wasn't expecting him to keep it." That's when he received a phone call, from Yuzuha? I would have lied if I said I wasn't interested to know what they would talk about.
"I heard you pushed Michi to have a date with you this Tuesday, you better not freak out if she doesn't show up!" Wait, was she about to inform him about my condition?
"Is she trying to cancel on me?" Taiju asked as a vein popped from anger.
"Michi is too nice for your sorry ass, she's apparently in a coma." I gave up, it seemed like the odds were against me, before I would wake up everyone I know will most likely be informed of my condition. Taiju seemed shocked to hear this, so I decided to let them have some privacy. But it was nice to see Taiju actually caring for somebody.
Next, I flew back to Wakasa's gym which seemed to have already closed, there was a message in the front apologizing for the inconvenience, obviously, no one was inside and all the lights were off.
I found them hanging all in Takeomi's place as they were drinking beer. Not the best coping mechanism. Chifuyu and Keisuke were hanging in Senju's room, would this bring them even closer?
I went against eavesdropping on their conversations, I felt already incredibly guilty from seeing them all cry, I didn't need more of those heavy emotions.
So my next spot to visit was Sano's residence, I had no way of knowing why this came up in my mind, but that's when I met him. Another ghost if I could call myself that at the moment.
"Great you could come here." The dude with black hair said smiling in my direction.
"What?" I asked confused.
"I only have limited time so let's be quick, tell my siblings I love them... Preferably to all three of them, but I guess it would be in your best interest to mention it to Izana first." Shinichiro said.
"Do you really believe they will take my words for it that I have seen you in my out-of-body experience?" This sneaky ghost just smiled ruffled thru my hair and vanished into the light.
"I don't even know what's going on anymore." I said, did I really just see him, a character that was supposed to be dead? As a ghost? Or did I just imagine it all by myself?
No, it couldn't be.
---------------------------------------------------------------
So what other scenes do you guys want to see me draw?
As of now I'm trying to finish a drawing of Keisuke and Michi, next I will probably work on Taiju one in aquarium :)
