I am now currently locked in a huge room, sitting with people I just met and listening to a lady I just met. How'd things end up like this...
"Ya'll know that you are the teenagers with the strongest potential right? I mean all four of you are in the white rooms. So for starters, this agency is called the REM agency and like I introduced a moment ago, I'm the boss here."
I kinda knew that already..
"So first things first, there is another world that is now sealed that stores cruel and bloodthirsty creatures called resonates."
I thought that was a myth. I mean I did see them in books and they looked creepy and they were often described as deadly. I already don't like where this is going.
"So what we do here is train you youngsters to fight against them cus you guys can use magic, which is the only way we can defeat them."
"In this place, we rank according to groups named by colours starting with the primary colours, red, yellow and blue being the lowest ranking, followed by the secondary colours, green, orange and purple then, scarlet, violet and indigo and finally, the highest ranking black and white."
"You punks are gonna be Team Black from now on so don't let us down okay. Cus people work hard just to get to that team y'know. Consider yourselves lucky for the free ticket to the top spot."
"And why would we do this for you?" Kusanagi glared at Ibenashi.
Ibenashi smirked.
"Trust me the reward is something you wish for as people with 100-year sentences."
Everyone looked up with their eyes wide open. Wow they're eyes are practically sparkling.
"What is it? What is it?" Phina clung onto Ibenashi looking at her with eager eyes.
"If you do this job for the rest of your lives.... I'll tell the police that each and everyone of you got framed and release you from prison. I'll even send you guys to school and pay for it."
Seriously?! Just who is she to have the authority and money to do such a thing?!
Phina was practically cheering and bouncing around the whole room with Kusanagi. Such energetic people.
But Izanami was just putting her hands on her legs and looking downwards, with a horrified expression. Is she not happy? I mean she's finally getting out of prison.She looks.....terrified?!
"So ya'll agree to do it right?" Ibenashi closed her eyes smiling as if she was expecting a yes.
"OF COURSE!!" Phina and Kusanagi answered in unison. I expected that.
I'd agree too but I'm worried about Izanami..
"Good we'll start training now then!" Ibenashi looked so satisfied
Wait now?! I'm didn't even get to sleep a wink last night.
Before I knew it, I was being dragged out of the room by Kusanagi.
It wasn't long before we reached the training room. It was an empty glass room with a table full of every weapon you can think of. I wonder what we're gonna do.
"I'm gonna test your fighting abilities now so all you have to do is pick one weapon from the table and enter the glass and kill all the enemies that approaches you in the room, if they so much as even touch you, you'll fail."
I'm getting kinda scared now....
"So.... Hmmm.....who'll go first?"
"ME ME PICK ME!" Phina waved her hand frantically once again.
"Okay okay."
Phina just went past the the table and casually pick up a gun as if the choice was a no-brainer. I Guess it should be since she's a sniper after all.
She went into the glass room.
"Ready?" Ibenashi put her finger on top of a button.
Phina nodded her head with confidence.
With that, black figures that looked like shadows appeared from all corners of the room some from the sides. How's she gonna defeat all of them with just a gun?!
Phina closed her eyes, waiting for the right moment to strike. Finally, she took a deep breath before opening her eyes and shooting in all the directions the black figures were coming from.
Gotta hand it to her, her accuracy was inhuman. She hit all of them right at the head. And her face was so serious.....I've never seen her with this face before.
She took them down one by one but they just kept coming. She was so focused on shooting. I noticed that there were two coming from the ceiling. Did she notice them?
The two shadows drop down from the ceiling reaching their hands out trying to touch her. They were so close but Phina dodged their attack by doing a one-handed backflip kicking one of them in the process. Then she dodged the other attacks from the others too. She was amazing. So agile.
She jumped up and shot and shot as she turned round and round midair. Stepping on two while landing. Then kicking one while shooting the other and elbowing one while shooting again. Finally, it seemed like she was done. There were no other shadows I could see.
But she didn't come out. She closed her eyes once again. Breathing in and out. She then raised a right hand, the one with the gun, to her right and shot, killing the final one. How'd she notice it? I couldn't even see it.
I gazed with awe at her amazing 'performance'. But the rest didn't seem that impressed. Am I the only one here that has no experience in killing people? Wait I am..... I almost forgot that everyone in the room except me and Ibenashi are high class murderers.
"A piece of cake!" Phina rubbed her hands together. The wasn't even a single drop of sweat on her face.
"Now who'll be next?" Ibenashi stared at all of us.
"Looks like fun. I'll go next then." Kusanagi folded his arms and started to stare at the wide array of weapons to choose from. He was in deep thought.
Finally, he made his decision and took the pair of throwing knifes. Of course, he is a ninja.
He stood in the middle of the room folding his arms, looking really bored.
Am I seriously the only one that's actually nervous here?!
