Akeno stood in front of her old house, a mixture of nostalgia and anxiety sweeping over her. The dilapidated wooden structure was far from inviting, but she knew she had to go in.

She was greeted by Yoshika, who clumsily jumped over the fence and landed on the ground. The sight brought a chuckle out of Akeno, despite the gravity of the situation.

Yoshika shot Akeno a glare, her pride stung by the laughter. Akeno apologized, trying to pacify her friend. They had more pressing matters at hand.

Their conversation turned to Kevin. Akeno asked what had happened to him, her voice laced with concern. Yoshika's response was terse and foreboding.

The news about Kevin and the Yakuza left Akeno reeling. Yoshika, in her anger, stormed off, leaving Akeno to process the shocking revelation alone.

Akeno quickly dialed Momo's number, hoping for some good news. Her voice trembled as she asked about Kevin's phone. Momo's reply was not comforting.

As Akeno ended the call, her mind raced. She had to find Kevin, and fast. His last known location was still in Toronto, she had to start there.

Meanwhile, Kevin was in a dire situation. He was hanging upside down in a slaughterhouse, the Yakuza's captive. His life hung in the balance.
