Food Wars: The Golden Hands

========================

Russia, on the morning of a nice and calm day. At one of the most beautiful lands in the Slavic nation. The Garden of Eden, this particular garden is designed to hold and nurtures every kind of any plants, and the owners of such place are None other than the Helmet Family

"Hohoho! Mr. Roberto, you're quite the though guy aren't you!" An old man with a spiky white hair and a well take care of mustache spoke to the red-haired man in front of him

"Well, I had the time to practice old father." This man is Roberto Romano or as he is currently known as; Roberto Helmet, the father of Rindo and Alexander's future father in law. He shared the old man's laughter as they enjoyed their little chess game

Roberto took his piece and moved it to play his turn.

The old man saw this and frowned "hmmm..." A little sweat dropped from his forehead, all he could do is move the only available safe option

But even then, Roberto trapped the old man "Checkmate." He said

"Gah!!" The old father facepalmed himself "This is my 58th loss, I am really starting to doubt that it is really a curse." The old father said with a bitter tone

"A curse?! Don't be ridiculous old father!" Said Roberto as he packed the pieces back

The old father took his stick and hit the ground "Enough. I had my fill with this, let's go inside, the old mother is serving breakfast soon..." He looked at his old fashioned watch and tidied his loos pajamas

The two men had one thing in common other than the family name, and that is that Pajamas are very comfortable.

"Indeed..." The two old men walked in a rocky way in the garden as they passed by a sea of flowers of all kinds

Soon they entered a large mansion, they were greeted by the servants one by one respectively

"Alfred! Where have you been, the two of us were waiting for so long!!" A black-haired old woman greeted the two, another black-haired woman stood beside her, she was clearly a Japanese woman, her green eyes were very outstanding, but not as much as her warm smile

"Shut up woman, I was handing this young one his ass in the garden," Alfred said as he took his place

"Be quiet and let us eat our breakfast; today little Haruna made it," Amanda said with a smile.

Haruna laughed shyly "Don't be too humble old mother, you gave me hand after all."

"This girl!" Amanda couldn't get enough of the sweet girl their grandson sent them. Even since they got the news of new family members joining them, Amanda was on her toes, she couldn't rest until she put the two to the test. Fortunately, the two were decent humans and Amanda and Alfred soon took a liking to them.

"Anyway, when is Alexander coming back?" Alfred asked as he took his daily cup of tea

"Who knows, the kid never tells us where he is, he is constantly moving, though I heard he said he will be staying in Japan for three years last year..." Amanda answered her husband. Roberto raised his eyebrow

"Don't you know he goes to Totsuki?" Roberto said making Alfred halt his cup in the air

"The cooking school?!" He said with a hint of surprise

"Oh! God, he followed his mother's footsteps." Amanda touched her forehead and shook her head

"Is that really a bad thing, he is only doing what he likes, besides, the red cloud is a restaurants chain," Haruna said trying to ease the atmosphere a little

"Huh? No one said anything about it being a bad thing, it is just..." Alfred couldn't think of proper words to say it "Why does he need to play with kids when he can just go take over the company and compete with the top chefs in the world... My grandson is a bully!" He said with a little sadness

"Hahahaha!!!" Roberto couldn't help but laugh at the old man's antics. His wife and Amanda soon followed him as they too found it very interesting

"As long as he is safe and having fun, I don't mind where he is..." Said Amanda.

The family resumed their breakfast in peace...

Meanwhile in another part of the world. Particularly in Totsuki's academy.

At the North Star Dormitory, loud noises spread across the vast fields of the old mansion

"It's Youuu♪ that I've been waiting foooor♪" a loud and a raspy voice spread in the vast living room. The old Natasha was singing happily with her face red from all the alcohol she was drinking. After all, how could she not be happy when all of the people she held dear to her heart ate around here.

"Be careful auntie or you will fall off the table," Alexandra said as she drank her glass.

The living room is very lively with more than 20 people hanging around. Even the people from the Polar star are here. The old Fumio was drunk and sound asleep after a long fight with Natasha, her face was still happy even when she was angry just a minute before.

Senzaemon was here too with Doujima, Koujiro, Inui, Mizuhara, they shared a cup of drink and remembered their past together, sadly Tsunozaki left after the match has ended.

Soma is fighting Takumi in the kitchen, Yuki and the others from the polar star are playing the judges.

Ryo, Isami, and Hayama are just watching as everyone either passed out from drinking or they just went with the momentum and went crazy

As of our beloved chef, he is sleeping... Yeah! He is sleeping with Alice on top of him as she slept too. After her defeat on his hands, he got a lot of work to calm her chaotic emotions as she nearly burst out crying

Leonora who was sitting with Alexandra was giggling from everyone's antics, the room was full of excitement and passion "fufufu~ this reminds me when the three of us were still students in here, don't you think so too?" She looked at Alexander who had a nostalgic feeling remembering the two of them and their third friend who is not here currently

"Indeed, back then it was very lively... I hope it stays like this..." An emotional gaze surfaced on her face after a long time of calmness as she realized that one day...this place will become empty with no one to keep people happy, and all that is left is dust and old furniture.

"Well, time to go..." As soon as she said that, Natasha stopped singing

"What?! Wait wait! Stay until tomorrow pleaseee!!" She cried like a baby

Senzaemon stood up with Doujima and walked to Alexandra "let us walk you out." Said Senzaemon. Alexandra was an honored guest and he had the responsibility to escort her until she leaves Totsuki and Doujima shared the same duty as Senzaemon

"Sorry auntie, but I have to go..." Alexandra couldn't help but steel her heart to the drunk crying old woman in her arms. She looked at her son on the couch with his girl on his chest and chuckled

"Tell my son to do his best as a stagier..." She cast a knowing smile at Natasha and kissed her forehead

"See you soon..." She then turned to leave the mansion with Senzaemon and the other judges and Doujima following her.

As the door was closed, Alexander opened his eyes slowly...he had clearly heard what she said, he sighed and closed his eyes and fell back to sleep.
