After Gail's proclamation, everyone came to a standstill. Movements of any sort and whispers of all kinds ceased. The people seemed to be contemplating, and then a majority of them began to applaud them and even shout at them. It seemed as if people had given in to Gail's speech, but Asahi could see that not everyone was totally for it."I mean.....I didn't expect them to believe in us so easily, I guess it's natural for some of them to still doubt. It's fine.....",Asahi said smiling at them all."Now...."
Right after saying that, one of the barriers around the wall was let down, and the Horsemen stared at this with large smiles. They got out of the ring and walked on slowly towards the space. Just as they reached the edge, Gail stayed back,"This is my mission.....I'll remain.....and gather up every single Awakened after you, whiles getting stronger with my own power. I won't let any of you down.....That's a promise!" They all smiled at her and then turned back to the path before them. "I can't believe this is happening.",Leo said, almost in tears. "Let's go.....Leo." Asahi held onto Leo as the all stepped out of the first Lab together.
The barrier closed up soon after, and all the Awakened were sent back inside. Leo and Pierson jumped around laughing crazily whiles Kenji and Asahi stood looking at them with smiles on their faces. The terrain outside was a dense foliage, a forest in every direction. Right infront of The Horsemen, was a straight pavement, running through the forest. "I guess following this path will lead us to the second gate. Let's hurry, guys!",Asahi said with a determined expression. They began to run on the path, but just as they had ran only a few seconds, Asahi spotted something twinkling at the corner of his eye. It almost looked like-"A golden...feather?" Asahi rushed to the shimmering light and saw it was stabbed into a tree, with a note pinned along with it."This.....is...Matteo??" Asahi took out the note and read it with the Horsemen looking at it from behind him.
☆☆☆~~~ Asahi... If you found this.....then it means you were able to succeed. I still disagree with the path you have chosen, but it's yours....not mine. You will need this later...Dig underneath the tree, You're Welcome ~~~☆☆☆
"Such a snob...." Asahi got down on his knees and began to dig with his bare hands. After a few seconds of digging, he pulled out a wooden box, dusted it, and opened it up."OH...Matteo you really do the most, huh?, cheeky bastard " Inside the box, were neatly folded jacket like blazers. The left sleeve was embroidered with a silhouette of a galloping horse, and the right was embroidered with the color of the respective horses written in capitalized letters. They all had the same design, but different colors. The Jackets themselves where jet black with all the embroidered done in their respective colors. Asahi shared them amongst his team, and they all wore them in unique ways. Leo wore it normally, Pierson did same, but folded up the sleeves. Kenji tied it onto his waste and Asahi wore it over his shoulders without putting his arms in the sleeves. "We've started this journey, now there's no going back. Let's go Horsemen!!"
~~~~~White.....Red.....Black...Pale. ....~~~~~~
When they ride into the world, Calamity, will come...
