Kitajima placed a hand on Mitsuzane's arm.
"How are you feeling now, Mitsuzane-kun?" he asked as Mitsuzane shrugged.
"I'm... okay. He... nii-san, how's he?" muttered Mitsuzane under his breath as Doctor Kitajima turned to his computer.
"It's amazing, indeed. Normally someone with your brother's severe injuries it was doubtful that they could make any recovery. Let alone in such a situation as your brother! It was almost impossible that such miracle could happen—then again, we've seen many other odd things in the past year..."
Mitsuzane nodded. "So... nii-san—his injuries..."
"He'll be able to make a complete recovery, in due time. He has been in coma for quite a time... after all. What puzzled me is that his brain scan showed that most of the severe damage he had sustained before had somehow disappeared. As if for somehow, the healing of your brother have been sped and enhanced. It's not something that our own medical knowledge were capable of, at the moment. I'd have to monitor your brother for now, to see that there won't be any other side effects to this... miracle."
Mitsuzane seemed to relax after hearing this. Kitajima added, "Of course, everything that I've just told you... I already relayed to the branch offi—"
Immediately, Mitsuzane's eyes flared. "Why did you do that? It's not as if my father was still alive! What do all those board members care about what happened to my brother?"
Kitajima sighed. "Are you sure there were no one else that would have cared about this matter?" he asked as a knock on the door made them turn around. A woman briskly entered the office as she bowed almost apologetically. Mitsuzane hastily turned back to face Kitajima.
"What's the meaning of this? I AM fine! I don't need to have another psychology therapy or whatever you're trying to do!"
"I've heard from the staff that you've been a bit... fragile, earlier. Miss Kikuko was also concerned—" explained Kitajima as Mitsuzane stood up.
"I AM FINE! I can handle this matter alone! You should tell her to stop caring about me as well!" he snapped before storming out of the office.
The woman sighed, watching the door as Kitajima addressed her.
"Sorry about that, Sayako-kun."
Shinozaki Sayoko smiled, turning back towards him. "Don't worry about that. I'm used to it. At least right now he's more stable compared to the first few days when I got his case," she said before giving him the look. "How's the brother?"
Kitajima shrugged. "So far, I don't see any other complication. Aside from the unexplained speedy recovery—I know I shouldn't complain especially when my patient is actually getting better—everything else is quite normal. But that aside, I feel that this moment is quite critical. These two brothers...I can't help thinking that both of their recovery would depend on each other. Takatora would still need to undergo physiotherapy amongst others... and he'd need Mitsuzane to be there for him."
Sayoko nodded. "And Takatora's recovery would also determine Mitsuzane's own mental health, I see the problem. Well, I'll figure out what to do."
Kitajima let out a sigh before looking up towards her. "I'll be depending on you."

Zack was quiet as he watched the crowd becoming more charged, while the team began another dance routine. He turned towards the empty stairway, recalling the encounter he had with Micchi the day earlier. Micchi didn't come for today's dance; to his disappointment. And he was hoping to try getting Micchi to come back, dancing with the rest of the team member too. Some other time perhaps.
He sighed.
With Kouta, Mai... and Kaito no longer around, he ended up becoming the de facto leader of the Beat Riders... as all of the remaining team members decided to join together and dance together. And because of that, he felt that it's up to him to continue the things those three had done before. Most of the loose ends were resolved by now, except Micchi. While some of the team was still a bit wary of getting Micchi back into their circle, he felt that it was now his duty to try to repair that fractured bond between the team (especially of what's left of Team Gaim) and Micchi. He's sure that Kouta would have wanted him to do that as well. He remembered what Kouta and Mai used to say about Micchi... when the rest of the team finally found out about his true identity.
He had a lot of thinking, after returning back to Zawame. And then he started recalling the many things from the past; back when they used to be rivals with each other. Micchi back then had been different. And the more he recalled those memories the more he believed all those things Mai and Kouta have said in defense of Micchi. Once he realized that, the more he felt pity about Micchi's situation. Sure, he lost his friend Kaito and some others... but Micchi, it's his own brother.
And he had a brief glimpse of Micchi, when those soldiers had taken him, Oren-san and Jounouchi to question them about the things happening in Zawame prior. Micchi at that time had looked far worse than anything he could remember seeing. Since then, he thought he would no longer be able to see Micchi again. Much less, talk to him. Until yesterday.
But Micchi seemed to be more reclusive now than when he used to be part of Team Gaim. Just approaching his yesterday was already tricky. If only he knows where to find him. Perhaps he needed to get more help.
