Summary
Mikey overlooks the city. Behind him, Koko asks him what the matter is; Mikey replies that it is raining and he has a bad feeling.

Meanwhile, the noise of the gunshot scares away a crowd. At the sight of Draken, the men from Rokuhara Tandai flee in terror. Still shocked at Draken's sudden arrival, Takemichi thanks him for saving him. As he kicks away the gun, Draken remarks on the brazen dangerousness of Takemichi's attackers.

After Takemichi confirms that Senju is unharmed, Takemichi asks why Draken showed up. Draken explains that Inupi heard that Rokuhara Tandai was targeting Takemichi. As Takemichi remarks his surprise at his targeting, Draken smiles, reminding him of his revered status in the delinquent world. Growing serious, Draken adds that the conflict between the Three Deities may not be as simple as a delinquent conflict. He explains that the gangs are involved with unethical businesses, which invest in the gangs.

After Takemichi wonders aloud about the future, Draken speculates that Mikey predicted this. Takemichi confides in with Draken that he can foresee future events. He explains his visions of Senju dying and thanks Draken for helping him change the future. Smiling, Draken says he is glad.

Suddenly, Senju reminds them that they need to leave the premises, as they may get in trouble if found. As Takemichi runs behind Senju, he notices Draken still standing, his back turned. Abruptly, Draken tells Takemichi to relay a message to Mikey: don't cause too much trouble. Confused, Takemichi tells Draken to tell Mikey himself. Before Takemichi can finish his sentence, Draken falls to the ground, having sustained three gunshot wounds. He says he has done all he can.
