Ekubo's been busy. And the others don't mind his sudden disappearance. I wonder what he's up to...

────────────

"We never really talked about that big tree in the middle of the city, right?" Mizuki said as he walked with you along with the Kageyama siblings.

Shigeo and Ritsu looked at each other.

You hummed and raised your eyebrow, "What's with the sudden topic?" You asked.

"Nothing. Tome's being weird earlier saying it appear out of nowhere, she said that maybe the aliens have something to do with it," He said.

"Okay...? You believed her?" You asked.

"Kind of, I mean, Mezato's also wanting me to check this crazy group— kind of sketchy," He said.

"Ew, don't talk to about these kinds of stuff, you're being a weirdo" You said as you pushed him away and stand next to Shigeo, "Leave me alone, or I'll resort into using Shige-chan!" You jokingly threatened.

"What the [Quack]?" Mizuki said, clearly offended by your words.

"Stop being weird, Mizuki," Ritsu said as he suspiciously eyed Mizuki.

The orange head rolled his eyes as he sigh, "I was gonna ask you guys to come with me to check it out up-close! You don't need to give me this type of treatment!" He whined.

You sigh, "You could've just say so," You said as you huffed.

"I can't come later, I have to study for the quiz-bee for the next week," Ritsu said with a blank look on his face.

"Eeehh? What about you '(Y/n)'s bf'?" Mizuki asked as he looked over to Shigeo.

Shigeo seemed flatter with the nickname Mizuki gave him, either way, he replied to Mizuki's words, "I'm sorry, Master said I'm needed in my work later," He said as he looked over to you.

You give him a smile as he slightly blushed at your actions.

Mizuki groaned, "Aww man! Come on, (Y/n), you have to be free later!" Mizuki pleaded as he looked over to you.

"Hmm... Not sure..." You trailed off.

"Come oooon! Pleaaaase! I don't want to walk around in that place alone!" Mizuki pleaded still, trying to give you some of his signature moves. His puppy eyes.

You looked over to Shigeo, "Should I go?" You asked him.

He was surprised with your question as he looked at you confused, making you chuckled. Shigeo doesn't know what to say, so his words were scattered, but was able to ask; "W-Why ask me?".

"Haha! Decide for me!" You encourage him, giving him a smile.

"SAY YES SHIGEO! PLEASE!" Mizuki cried.

"Uhm..." Shigeo paused as he thought of things. You're only going to be with a a Mizuki, so that was nothing new. And the place that you're going seemed safe too— wait, he was unsure of that. That big giant tree is just the broccoli he had on his uniforms pocket.

The energy that he was suppose to absorb from Suzuki-san transfered to those seeds.

Hmm... Shigeo doesn't see any harm to it— WAIT! WHY IS HE THINKING LIKE YOU'RE ALREADY HIS GIRLFRIEND.

Shigeo immediately snapped out of his thoughts as he nervously spoke, "I-It's up to (Y/n)!" He stuttered with a slight blush .

You frowned slightly, you wanted him to decide for you for some reason. It's cute to see him this flustered, he's such a cutiiieee~ gosh, you're so lucky.

"Awee~ I wanted you to decide for me," You paused as you huffed.

Shigeo suddenly became more nervous when he heard your words, but he stayed quiet.

You chuckled, "Ay, Fine, I'll come with you later," You said to Mizuki.

"AW YES! NICE ONE SHIGEO!" Mizuki exclaimed as he rests his arms around Shigeo's shoulder as he gives the timid boy a thumbs up.

Ritsu glared at Mizuki at his sudden actions to his older brother. You, however, just mentally face palmed as you consciously sigh.

────────────

Going out with your comfy clothes, a hoodie you stole from your big brother, some black pajamas, and your favorite colored shoes.

Mizuki was waiting outside of his house when you had gotten out of the door.

"Come on!" He exclaimed making you roll your eyes.

He is always impatient whenever he's going somewhere.

"Fine! But you better treat me some snacks there," You said.

"Yeah, yeah, fine— I did stole mom's credit card before she takes her leave back to Philippines," He said.

"What the—?"

"Anyways! Let's go!" He said as he grabbed your wrist and excitedly dragged you away.

.

.

.

"Woah— it's even bigger up-close," Mizuki said in awe as he looked up to see the giant tree in front of him. His face contorted into a disgusted one when he realized something.

"Eugh, looks strongly resembles a broccoli," He said to himself.

However, someone heard it.

"Don't say that about the divine tree that's given to us by our founder!" A random dude beside him made him flinch as he looked at them with a grimaced expression.

"What the hell are you on about? Do the founder of this giant what-not gives you people some LSD's?" He said.

"He's being rude to the founder of the  Psycho Helmet!" The dude shouted.

"H-Hey! Stop embarrassing yourself, dude!" Mizuki said as his jaw clenched.

When the hell did I lose (Y/n)? She's always going on her own! [Horrible curse word]!

"Grab him! Let's bring him to our founder so he'll straighten up his attitude!" Someone said as Mizuki felt hands grabbing both of his arms.

"H-Hey! Bro—! This shits illegal!" Mizuki shouted angrily.

"It's not if it's showing our founder that you needed to change," They said.

"What the— this is fucked up! LET ME GO! ILL SUE YOU GUYS!"

✧

"Huh? Where did Mizuki go?" You said to yourself as you look around for your best friend. You were currently holding two ice cream, for some reason, they used the ingredients for the tree to make his soft served ice cream.

It's already melting, and you couldn't find Mizuki to give him the other one. You couldn't start eating it without him.

"Ugh! Don't tell me he ran off somewhere again!" You groaned. Deciding that you should look for your friend, you just threw the melting ice cream at the garbage can that was near you. 

Walking around as you keep a sharp eye for your best friend.

✧

"Who is this?" The 'founder' spoke.

They let go Mizuki as they threw him on the ground.

"He's being rude to you and the divine tree," One said.

"Is that so..." The founder said.

Mizuki looked up ahead to see this weird looking—

"Shigeo? What the hell man!" Mizuki shouted angrily as he stood up.

He knows Shigeo?!

Ekubo thought.

"You're that jealous of me and (Y/n) going here together that you're doing this to me? Come on, man! That's just low! You know I don't like (Y/n) that way! I see her as my sister!" Mizuki shouted.

"Shut it." The "founder" said making Mizuki shut his mouth immediately for some odd reason.

It was against his will. And Mizuki was weirded out.

Jealous? What the hell? I've missed so much now that I'm focusing on becoming a god! Good thing this orange pore head gave me a sweet information!

So, Shigeo did managed to fall in love with someone who truly loves him! Wonderful— wait...

The founder walked closer to Mizuki. The orange head sense danger as he raised his fist.

Without any words from two parties. Mizuki suddenly kneeled down in front of the "Founder".

"I am so sorry about my rude behavior and rudeness to you, o' great one. Please forgive me," Mizuki said.

"You didn't do any damage to the divine tree, so I'm letting you off the hook this time. Though, I want you to do something for me," The "founder" said.

"A-Anything for you, Divine Founder!"

"Make your best friend become my new follower, that's easy for you to do, right?" The "founder" asked.

"Yes! It's very easy! I'll do it in no time!"

"Good."

────────────

You clicked your tongue in annoyance as you dialed Mizuki's phone number. He's been gone for almost 30 minutes, and you don't want to stand here all alone— many people are giving you the look, it's getting uncomfortable.

"Stop calling me, would yah?" You heard his familiar voice as you look over to him and glare at him.

"Where the hell have you been?! And here I thought I'm the one who always get lost," You said angrily with a glare.

Mizuki was smiling softly at you, but didn't reply to what you said. However, he did grabbed your wrist and started to drag you somewhere.

"Mizuki? What the hell, let go!" You shouted as you slap his arm.

"Ow! Stop that! Just come with me! Shigeo's here!" Mizuki cheerfully said.

"Wait— he is?" You asked.

"Yup! And he's waiting for you!" Mizuki said with a grin.

Weird... He's being too enthusiastic right now.

Not that it's bad being enthusiastic. But Mizuki being too enthusiastic is weird.

.

.

.

"Wait, that's not Shigeo." You said as you look at Mizuki in disbelief.

"Yeah, that's our Founder! The divine founder of the divine tree!" Mizuki said.

You look over to the thing in front of you. And oh boy, your trypophobia just attacked you.

"(Y/n)! I knew you'd make Shigeo fall for you!" The founder said.

Mizuki squealed, "Aaah! He knows you! I'm so jealous!" Mizuki dreamily said.

You look at him in disgust.

"Who are you? Why are you trying to impose as Shigeo?" You asked.

"My... Didn't you hear what Mizuki said? I'm the founder of the divine tree," It said with pride.

"Then why do you look like Shigeo then," You asked, crossing your arms against your chest.

"How about you stop saying that for now?" It asked as he pointed his index finger on your head.

How did he—

"As you wish, Divine Founder," You said as you nodded to the divine founders wishes.

The divine founder nodded, "Good. Could you do me a favor?" The divine founder asked.

"What is it?" You replied. Your heart swells with so much respect towards the divine founder of the divine tree.

You don't know why, but somehow, it makes you feel contented and happy.

The divine founder...

Suddenly, the ceiling of the divine tree was suddenly broken.

Revealing the blonde boy known as Teruki Hanazawa.

"The cookies... Taste crap..." He panted as he wiped his mouth, glaring directly at our Divine Founder.

"Ah! I knew you'd come Hanazawa-san," The divine founder spoke as he spread his arms out, to welcome our new believer.

"Hah... You really are a good for nothing evil spirit," Hanazawa paused as he straightened up his posture, "Ekubo."

"You wouldn't really consort to violence now, are you? Your friends are here, especially Shigeo's little girlfriend," Ekubo, our Divine founder spoke, seemingly smirking.

Hanazawa's eyes widened in shock as he sees you along with Mizuki, standing behind the divine founder, as he was keeping you two close, to keep you both safe— how lucky~!

"You've also brainwashed them? I didn't know you'd stoop that low," Hanazawa said with a smile.

"What do you mean?" The divine founder asked.

"No, nothing. I mean, you did say that (Y/n)'s now Shigeo's girlfriend, don't you think you're stepping on a thin ice?" Hanazawa asked.

"As if Shigeo can do anything about it, of course, not when (Y/n)'s around. He knows the danger of going against the person he loves— he already broke her heart, he's not going to have the guts to break her even more," The divine founder said, chuckling afterwards.

"Right, (Y/n)-chan? You'll hate Shigeo forever if he ever hurts me, right?" The divine founder asked you, his tone is seemed to be smiling at you.

You nodded thoughtlessly, "Yes, of course, Divine Founder. I will hate Shigeo forever if he ever lay a hand on you," You said as you smiled at the founder.

"(Y/n)-chan never even calls Shigeo Shigeo! It's Shige-chan, Ekubo! SHI-GE-CHAN!" Hanazawa shouted.

"Oh yeah, I totally forgot—"

"You're really an evil spirit from the roots. Shigeo's going to hate you," Hanazawa said as he looked at The divine founder with a dead expression, "I'm going to have to exorcise you again like I did before," He announced.

"I'm already at a peak of being a god, Hanazawa-san. But, be my guest," Our divine said with pride.

Our Divine founder will surely win this fight.

Of course, he wins. He's out divine founder after all.
