Negiro: Are you all right?
Me: Yeah. It looks like it's finally over.
Kaito: I healed all of our wounds!
Ichiro: Hey there.
Kaito: Also I got some good news!
Me: What is it?
Kaito: It seems all of Tamoshiri and The Power Kings are on our side.
Me: Really?
Negiro: Yep.
Ichiro contacted Itsuki and reported that they had broke me out.
Ichiro: We should probably wait here for Itsuki.
Kaito: Huh? Who's that over there?
Kaito: Mister, why are you sleeping there?
He had semi long straight hair, and a blue suit vest.
???: What? You can see me?
Kaito: Yeah?
???: Forget what I said. It's rude of me to not introduce myself before talking any further!
???: I'm Kotodama, I worked for The Insanus. Here's my badge. And you are??
Kaito: Ah, I see. I'm Kaito. And these three are Mazoku, Negiro and Ichiro.
Kotodama: Nice to meet you all. I'll catch you guys later!
He walked away while the sun was rising.
It was currently 7:40 AM.
A car pulled over, it was Itsuki and Yuna.
Yuna ran to me and hugged me. I turned a bit red and hugged her back.
Yuna: Please, promise you won't worry me like this again!
Me: I promise.
I said that with a smirk. Itsuki was eating popcorn to Me and Yuna talking.
Me: Cut it out!
We all laughed.
Itsuki: All of you have finally earned a permit to engage with The Forsaken Ones.
Kaito: For real?
Itsuki: For real. This operation was more than enough to prove you 4 don't need your hands to be held in your journey to become The Power Kings.
We all nodded.
On November 2nd, 2034, the extrance exams to become The Power King happen. I need to get much, much stronger in order for me to pass!
I starting walking home, as the sun shined bright.
-20 minutes later..-
I opened the door to my house. And I was greeted with a proud mother.
Ayaka: You did good today. You did good.
Me: Thanks, mom. I wouldn't be able to do this without you.
Ayaka shed a tear or two.
I walked upstairs to my room, read a few comics and went to bed.
When I woke up, I didn't have to go to Kurosaki for the day, because of a few hours ago. So in other words, I was free for the day along with the others.
Today is 11/26, Thanksgiving Day.
I went out, took a Taxi to the nearest grocery store and bought a Turkey.
Cashier: That'll be 60 bucks please!
I dug in my pockets and gave them the money. Today felt like an awfully peaceful day. Something was bound to happen sooner or later. I took the Turkey back home and gave it to my mom. She cooked it and it took about 4 hours. In that time, I sat around at the kitchen table reading.
It is currently 6 PM, 11/26.
I invited my friends over, and about 20 minutes later they all came at around the same time.
Kaito was first, because he's usually always outside. I invited Yuna over too and she came.
Eat up!
We started eating and talking and whatnot. Few minutes later, 2 new guests knocked on the door.
Keila and Midori?
Negiro: Hey Keila!
Ichiro: Midori! You came!
Me: Kaito, how come you haven't found someone?
Kaito: Because I don't want a girlfriend. At least, not right now.
Me: Yep, that's exactly how I used to feel.
We all started eating together.
After we finished all the Thanksgiving food, they all went home. But I had Yuna stay the night. Yuna walked upstairs. My mom winked at me.
Me: Uhhhh.. Bye mom!
I ran upstairs. I went in my room with Yuna. We layed down on my bed.
Yuna: I love you, Mazoku.
Mazoku: I love you too.
I put the blankets on and the television. The news started talking about how over half of The Insanus has been destroyed.
Me: I caused all of this?
Yuna: It's not your fault. You did good today. You did good.
I smiled. Right as I was about to fall asleep, I felt
a kiss on my lips. I open my eyes, and I see Yuna's graceful eyes..
I kissed her back.
