1999

The beeping of Shinichiro's heart monitor echoed loudly as you entered his hospital room. A few days ago, the leader of the Black Dragons had a minor accident on his motorbike. He wasn't paying attention and ended up being hit by a car coming the other way. A few bruises and cuts but unfortunately the bike's sheer force caused his left leg's bone to shatter when he fell over.

His friends and younger siblings were all standing around him, joking and talking to him as you walked in. All eyes fell on you as you took the chart off the bottom of his bed and flicked through it.

"How are you feeling, Mr. Sano?" you asked, putting back down the chart and walking to the side of the bed to give him another dose of pain relief.

"A lot better now that you've come to see me." he replied with a small smile on his lips.
