Junipo "There it is."

Sen "What?! That's it? It's-its just a rock."

Junipo "Have you been listening to a single word I've said this, the whole time."

Sen "Well yeah you mentioned something about them… you know it already there's no need for me to waste my breath on telling you."

Junipo "How could I not have realized."

Baskia comes up directly behind Sen "That's the rock of Angfel"

Sen jumps and screams then suddenly turns around "Don't do that! Who even are you?! Sneaking up behind me like that. Were you trying to give me a heart attack!?"

Baskia "Nope. I was just walking."

Sen "Walking?! You were basically spying on us."

Baskia "Meh maybe you were the one spying on me. Ever think of it like that?"

Sen "How could we spy on you? We were in front of you!"

Baskia "How do I know that?"

Sen "Because you came up behind me!"

Baskia "Did I?"

Sen "Yes!"

Junipo "Okay the two of you that's enough now. Who are you and why are you here?"

Baskia "Basika"

Junipo "Okay Baskia, how did you hear of the Angfel rock?"

Baskia "From you of course."

Junipo "But how I have never seen you before, not once."

Basika "I have my ways let's just leave it at that."

Sen "Junipo, this low life is lying! He knows nothing about the Angfel rock."

Junipo rubs his forehead and stares at the ground. "At this moment Sen he knows more than you."

Sen "Well I-I I ah still think he's lying."

Junipo "Let us ask him then."

Sen "Wait for what?"

Junipo "Baskia are you lying to us?"

Baskia "No."

Junipo "Okay now that's settled."

Sen "Of course he'd say that!"

Junipo "The only thing that's important right now is that only the two of you know about this. If anyone else finds out, we are all done for. Do you understand me?"

Baskia "Yes I do."

Junipo looks over at Sen " Sen?!"

Sen "Ah oh yeah sure."

Junipo grabs Sen by his collar and pulls him close to his face. "This isn't one of those times to start acting up! Stop acting like everything is a joke to you! Do you even care Sen, tell me do you even give a damn about what could happen to you your friends and family?! They'll just be mere distant memories in the back of your mind. You'll never even know they existed. They'll just be something you have forgotten! Do you really want to forget them Sen. Well do you?!"

Sen trembling with fear turns his glance away from Junipo. "No! I don't I'll never forget them not ever!"

Junipo throws Sen on the ground and walks away. "Then for once listen to me."

Ten years later.

Fourth "Riaon will you please pay attention. This is important."

Riaon "I am I am."

Fourth "Okay, where was I? Oh yes, that's right. In order to entirely achieve full kage no katachi. You need to allow yourself to feel as if the earth beneath your feet is connected to you.

Raion "Fourth that seems easy."

Fourth "If you think this is easy then let me see you demonstrate it. Turn me into a shadow."

Raion "I can do this stuff in my sleep, why don't you give me something more challenging! Let me show you what I can really accomplish!"

Fourth: "Raion! I've told you this countless times before. There are steps to take, rules you need to follow before you're able to get to where I am. It take time and dedication, you'll have to work your mind and body through obstacles you never thought were possible. Day in and day out, sweat blood and tears you will shed."

Raion: turns himself into a shadow "I got this Fourth don't worry. This will be easy."

Fourth: "Raion can you stop acting like a fool and start paying a..tten..tion… Raion!! What! Are you? No did you?! It couldn't be! This is impossible!"

Raion: "What's the matter? Did I forget to wear a belt again? Dang, my pants fell down. This is the third time this week. I try to find a belt but none of them work for me."

Fourth: "No your pants are still up."

Raion: "That's a big relief. Then what is it?"

Fourth "Just take a look at yourself."

Raion goes to the back of the room where the wall is lined with mirrors and takes a look at himself.

Raion: "I've... I've turned into a shadow! But how? I was trying to turn you into a shadow. How do I turn back?! Fourth I don't know how to turn back!"

Fourth: "Don't worry, I'll turn you back. But for how you managed to do that. I'm not sure. I think we need to have a talk with Wen."

Raion: "Wen? The all sight?"

Fourth: "Yes now come there's no time to waste. And Raion, try to keep yourself normal until we get there. I'm not sure how dangerous this is or what it can do to your body, for all we know it could kill you."

Raion: "K…k..kill me?!."

Fourth: "I said might."

Raion: " That's even more reassuring thanks Fourth."

Fourth: "You are welcome."

Raion "I meant that as a… never mind let's go."

Fourth: " It will take is a few days to reach Wen, so we're going to need to gather some stuff for the trip."

Raion and Fourth walked down to the local market, gathered some food and supplies for their long trip.

Raion picks up a whole banana cream pie and starts handing the merchant the money.

Fourth slaps Raion on the back of the head "I said things you need for the trip, not for your enjoyment."

Raion: "This is for the trip. You see eating this pie will keep me at my full strength just in case we get attacked."

Fourth: "I've told you multiple times today. This is serious, there's no time for your games anymore. I need to know that you're not going to act out any more Raion. You hear me?"

Raion sets the pie down and looks down at the floor "I'm not trying to." he looks up "You don't think I don't know how serious this can be!" Raion turns into a shadow "I just as much as you do want to fix what's wrong with me."

Fourth: "Raion stop. Stop talking. You've done it again. You've turned yourself into a shadow."

Raion: "But how? Again?"

Fourth: "Not sure but I can turn you back." Fourth tries to turn Raion back.

Raion: "Okay I'm ready are you going to do it?"

Fourth:" I am, I'm trying to it's just not working right."

Raion: "What do you mean it's not working Fourth!"

Fourth: "Exactly what I mean it's not working."

Raion: "Well try harder!"

Fourth: "I'm giving it all I got Raion. It's not working."

Raion: "Wen, you said we could help?! We need to go now "

Fourth: "We're in some deep shit now Raion."

Raion: "Don't make me be the well rounded and serious one right now Fourth because if I even for a slight second start to, I'm going to admit defeat. And I'm not ready for that, so you are not allowed to be the one to make jokes. That's my job. Now I need you to tell me to get going."

Fourth: "Get going Raion."

Raion: "Okay I'm ready."
