Loud chatter rang out throughout the casino as the patrons played games and drank until they became shitfaced. Nights like these were common during weekend nights, where people could unwind and rack up debt after spending their hard earned money on Poker, BlackJack, Texas Hold 'Em, etc. However, Tsunagu wasn’t exactly the type of man to enjoy these types of games, he wasn’t interested in losing his money to games that were obviously rigged.

"So, Jeanist—" Keigo began, stretching his arms over his head as he leaned back against the bar counter. "—when are we meeting this mysterious ally of yours?" He asked as Enji, on Keigo’s opposite side, let out a small huff from his nose. "Maybe if you had patience, they’d come out sooner?" He suggested sarcastically as Keigo let out a dramatic gasp. Tsunagu had to physically refrain from facepalming at the antics of his comrades. For leaders of their own organizations, they did act like bickering children.

Then he heard approaching footsteps as a casino worker approached the trio, stopping near Tsunagu. They gave him a small nod in greeting and leaned forward, whispering something into his ear. Keigo and Enji both shut up as they focused on the interaction, straining their ears to and listen.

Tsunagu and the worker exchanged a brief nod before the worker walked away, then he turned to the other two. "They’re ready to see us." He said as he stood up with the other two doing the same and following his lead.

You sat at the head of one of the game tables, watching as your opponent, in the form of a patron, curse under his breath as he lost for the nth time against you that night. Really, this man was the definition of insanity with the way he kept playing the game and expecting to win. He eventually gave up, pushing the last bits of yen to your side of the table before he got up and walked away, likely to drown in alcohol.

As you shuffled a deck of cards, preparing for another game when three sets of footfalls were heard approaching your table. Looking up, you see the familiar face of your longtime companion Tsunagu, and two of his comrades he said he’d bring along: a younger man with blonde hair and gold eyes, maybe in his early twenties, and an older man with red hair and piercing turquoise eyes, definitely late thirties or early forties at best.

You immediately recognized the older one as Enji, rather "Endeavor" as he’s better known. Japan’s top and most feared boss. The younger.. definitely a newer one, but he seems formidable. Tsunagu said that, despite his casualness, he was intelligent and has the keen eye of a hawk. And, apparently, despite his youth, actually worked his way to second best in the criminal underworld.
