i blink my eyes open, i was in the same room on my first day in here
'.....MY STUFF!' i quickly trashes around, i sat up and look all over the bed until i relize
my stuff is on the corner, and beside is the white hair girl
i tense up, the girl notice my awakened and put her board on the table
i panic, i understand what power she have
"lay down, stay quite" the idea of running away quickly vanish
my body lay itself down and my mouth shut its own
she stood up and do some checking.
"you have a cut on your head, i think its because when you trowns out your head graze on a sharp item..perhaps a sharp metal" she cleanly spoke
she sat on her seat again, letting the afternoon sunset glisten on her name tag
'wait name tag?' i eye it carefully
'hana.....YASHIDA?!' a familiar boy face flash before my very eye
'fumikumo and hana are siblings?!' i wanted to scream.
the door creeks open, yet again daisuke was there with kaito
kaito looks beat up but his face still looks bratty.
"how are you doing ito-chan?" daisuke say with a singing tone.
i nod, not being able to talk or move my body
"hana-chan can you release ito-chan please?" daisuke say in a polite tone
hana nod, "release" the feeling of being squeez now fades away.
i sat up and touch my head who have been covered by bandage in most parts.
"kaito-kun here wanted to say sorry for making you fight a lower class two even tho your supposed to be fighting lower class" daisuke say
kaito grumble, i guess he is saying sorry?
"um..its fine" i say
"well its not my fault he is weak..." kaito grumble , now i can clearly hesr it
daisuke just sigh looking at kaito with....dissapointment? but the eyes quickly turn into those dull endless and empty ones i recognize
"well, you seem fine with just your head being wraped in bandage. for the mean time you are gonna train along side with me and division 1" daisuke say.
i nod and stand up, carefully walking to my stuff and put it on
as i follow daisuke leaving kaito with hana, i cant help but feel kinda bad.
i dont know why, but when i walk out i can saw a flash of guilt covering kaito face for a second before the door close
i look at daisuke back, feeling nostalgic as i let the familiar sceen unfold
i glance at my waist bag, i open it quickly just to check my things and close it again.
daisuke stop on a double door with 'division 1' writen on it.
he open the door and i trail behind
the room is–diffrent. its diffrent from special division usual living room like. division one is more office like with many filled with people couches scattered around.
daisuke clap his hands, everyone in the room stop and look
"everyone, if you didnt know. this is yuuko ito from special division. he will be training here in the meantime as kaito-kun have something going on. please welcome him!" they all continue after hearing the announcement, daisuke turn around and look at me
"your gonna train with kaede" he said smiling
'kaede....kaede.....why does the name sound familiar?' i think, trying to recal the name.
"he is the guy you met at the bar. the– quote on quote hardcore cosplayer"
'ah. its him.' as if was a que, the person was now beside daisuke
his outfit is still the same, a white button up with rolled sleeve with a sleeveless green vest,black pants and polish black shoes
but now on his collar, there is a tie
"kaede ikeda" he say wasting no time, i cant even react because he's already dragging me to the training ground.
his smoke was on my face, i cough and almost fell if it wasnt for his strong hold on my wrist
his dragging stop, it seem like we already arive at the training ground.
he looks at me with the same tired eye when he looks at daisuke in the bar, empty yet there is emotion
"alright music freak, i dont know why that idiot think it was a good idea to make me your mentor. but i want to make something clear" his voice is rough and dont even have a tone, but the air seem so heavy now.
"i will not go easy on you like hat boy, i will not respect you but i want you to respect me. clear?" i franticly nod
'what's with these nicknames people gave me?! so rude! i want to go home!'
"ill just asume he didnt told you the basics, but atleast you know your power is right?"
"..."
"right?" now his voice filled with death lingered on his tounge
"y-yes! yes!" i answer panicly, he looks at me as if he didnt believe what i said
"then tell me what is your power" he said, leaning his body closer and tap my chest.
"i-um...its....uh...i can make people do something, or feel something when i-i play an instrument" i say stutering while i talk
"hm...so its like kaito but instrument version. i guess thats easy to work with" he say finnally making space
"try hypnotize someone with your instrument" he say.
i tense up "w-what–sir im new to this?" i say, adding more tone then i want it to be
he sends me glare that i cant help but follow his command
i look around. i saw one of the suits just sitting around not doing anything
i open my waist bag and pulled my fluet, checking a little if there is any scratches
"do it fast you fool" kaede warn me.
i flinch with a uneasy smile in my lips 'geez...be patience zombie'
i look at the person one more time before closing my eyes, i blow the fluet again.
i cover holes and blows making a melody that sound decent.
yet the 'tune' that i saw didnt show up, i panic.
is it because i dont know what memories or emotion that can hypnotize someone?
i keep trying until eventually, i gave up.
i release the fluet and take heavy breaths
i look at kaede, expecting another glare and his body flare with disapointed
but no, i saw him on the ground playing with the sand like a kid.
it feels weird to me, seeing a guy that looks like he maybe is his 30's push the sands to make a mountain
the sand pile than got blown by a wind created by another ring, i dont even bother to check who it is because kaede is already standing up brushing the sand away from his clothe
he clear his throat, his face doesnt show any embaressment at all.
yet im still dumbfounded
"there is no 'emotion' or 'memories' that can make you hypnotize someone i hope you relizes, time like this there are only urges" he started
"ill just use kaito power as example, like if you think happy memories when you yadah yadah yada something like that. but urge is more difficult to achive than memories"
"as memories, is something that you felt and remember. you already implant those feeling in your mind"
"but urge, is something you desire strongly its almost the same as ambition. urge, is what you want to persude earnestly, and persistently its like the concept 'i want to have revenge' for example"
"and thats what make it hard. you need to have a strong urge, that will overcome any emotion you felt at the very moment. make your mind go blank and the only thing in your mind is that." everything seem silince, only kaede voice that i heard
"im gonna train you, to make your mind go blank. making your brain and body moves on its own, following the urge that you putted your focus into" i feel weird motivation creapes into me.
crawling into my head as it scream
i gulp. it feels oddly familiar, like ive already been told about this.
but what i know is that i want to learn it fast.
