"Hi! My name is Itsuki! And i'm here to inform you that your bounty has been revoked."
Huh?
"Yep! I saw your work with that Forsaken One last night." "My Ability allows me to go invisible for long periods of time, and i've gotta say, you have quite the potential!" Itsuki stated. "This also means you can go back to Kurosaki without having to hide in the shadows."
This baffled me.. My bounty is revoked, just cause I helped beat Asahi? Just how powerful are these people? It's odd..
I guess i'd better head back to Kurosaki then..
Riku: Hey look, the idiot Forsaken Kid is back!!
Yeah.
"Welcome back, take a seat and let's get started!" Mr. Silvas welcomed me.
Mr Silvas: We have a visitor today! Today one of the Power Kings, Itsuki, will come to visit us.
What business does he want with me?!
"Hey.. are you all right?" Negiro questioned.
"I'm gonna probably get interrogated.. I met Itsuki downtown earlier today, he seemed nice, but why would he come here, specifically to the class i'm in?" I stated.
Itsuki opened the door..
He called all of us. Me, Kaito, Ichiro and Negiro. When we were outside, he have us all $50,000 as a reward for beating Asahi. He was kind, and had no bad intentions. Maybe we could invent new tech we may need in the future? "Here, take this" "Itsuki?" I asked "You all did well defeating Asahi. But i'm gonna kindly ask that you please not get involved with the Forsaken Ones. It's far too dangerous and can give Tamoshiri a bad reputation." Itsuki explained. "Hell yeah! We all get $50,000 each! What should we spend it on??" Ichiro got excited.
"Hmm i'm not so sure.. I might use it to make tech for training.." I thought
No one knew at this point what to spend it on...
"WHAT?! Y'ALL GOT $50,000?!?! GIVE ME SOME OR I'LL ROB IT FROM YOU!" Riku screamed at us.
Ichiro punched him in the nose that would send him flying into the school lockers.
Ichiro: You don't deserve this money. We had to fight a powerful enemy in order to get it.
Riku: Who? Who could you losers have possibly defeated?
Kaito: Somebody that I bet you couldn't beat.
Kaito had scratches and scrapes around his body, and Riku noticed..
Riku punched Kaito in the face, harder than Asahi had.. Kaito went unconscious for a while.
Why Riku.. Why do you act like this?
"Why does it matter to you?!" Riku yelled while sounding like he was about to cry..
~Riku's Perspective~
Yeah.. that's right.. I am worthless and probably wouldn't be able to beat whoever they fought..
I'm a teenager.. One who's abused by his parents and family. When I get home, back from Kurosaki.. I start to feel anxious. Ready for anything.
Khan (Riku's Dad): If you don't pass the Power King exams in 2034, i'll kill you!
He punched me directly in the face and nearly broke my nose..
"I'm heading off to work! I'll deal with your worthless trash later.."
Where does my dad even work.. He has no records of working anywhere..
I punched Kaito in the face real hard with my metal arm. People don't understand what I go through as a person. I hate Khan. Atleast my mother Yumi is a better person to me than he is..
~My Perspective~
"You wouldn't understand!" Riku cried and shedded a few tears. I was genuinely concerned for him and what his motives were. I'd best not think about it and go home, school's out anyway..
"Mazoku-Kun! Are you okay??" Mom Ayaka asked while crying when I got back home. "Yeah. Perfectly fine." I calmly said
Ayaka: I was so worried for you! You were essentially listed as one of the most wanted criminals in the world! I'm so glad you came back safe.. By the way, why was your bounty revoked?
"Please don't get mad at me.. The reason my bounty went away is because I fought the Fourth Forsaken One, Asahi and defeated him.."
"I'm not mad. I'm just happy to see you doing well again." Ayaka told me.
I went to sleep.. zzzzz..
~Inside the Black Room in My Head~
"Ahh!!" I yelled. "Huh?? Who's there?" I had no idea where I was.
"Hey." An unknown menacing voice had told me. "Who are you, what do you want from me?!" I started getting a real bad feeling of what's to come..
"I'm just here to warn you.. With your bounty revoked.. Your demise is sure to come.. soon enough.. hahahahahaha.."
The unknown voice had vanished, and so had the black room..
