Chapter 33 - An Unknown Hope

Everyone soon came out of their cabins after the commotion had died down. Seeing how Kazumi looked, some people were hesitant to even approach him. "Is everyone okay?", Kazumi questioned, but the only answer he received was a loud, awkward silence. Seeing the anxious look on some of the people's faces, he dashed off to his cabin without saying a word to anyone."Captain!--",Lucas called out to him, trying to get him to stop, but he only sped up. He sighed and began to walk to the people,when the Horsemen came to meet him."Lucas--are you okay?",Leo asked in concern. "Yeah, ofcourse, thanks for asking. I think the Captain is pissed....." "Who were those guys anyway?" "Those guys were from O.R.C.A. They're the rulers of the second lab. They've won the Showdown consecutively and it's kinda gotten into their heads. They pull stuff like this every time. The Captain doesn't really get mad, but when he does, RUN. He suffers from some real anger issues, it was worse when he was younger but he's trying to control himself now. It's gets pretty toxic sometimes, I'd suggest,..RUNNING?", They cackled away at this. "Anyway....I really have to check up on him, see ya guys!" "Yeah, see you!!" With that, Lucas hurried after him. "So Asahi, I guess we have to-",Lucas turned to Asahi and froze in his spot, seeing a spine-chilling grin creeping over his face."You have another idea don't you?" "Sure do...." "Spill it, Cap'n!!" "Yeah what is it?", The Horsemen ask him, but he didn't respond, all he did was grin with devilish intent.

Meanwhile, Lucas had arrived at Kazumi's cabin. He knocked on the door twice and could hear ear piercing sounds coming from inside. He slowly opened the door, but then, a boot came flying at him. Luckily, he activated his "GHOSTCLAW" and the boot phased through his body. "Captain....you need to chill out...." He stared at the devastation Kazumi had unleashed in the room. There were broken pieces of chairs and tables lying all over the floor, and cloths and torn fabrics were thrown all over the place. Kazumi stood in the other room, all of his muscles tensed up and blood still staining his clothes. His hands dug into the wood of his bedside table. His breathing was wild and erratic, and he was muttering some incoherent words to himself. "Uh....Captain??", Hearing Lucas's voice, he turned around sharply, looking absolutely livid. "I'M GOING TO KILL HIM-- I WILL, I WILL, I WILL!!!!", Kazumi didn't just look angry, he seemed insane. "Hehe...yeah....Good to know?", Lucas awkwardly began to approach him. "You know what you should do? You should channel your frustration, and use it to bash Klaus's face in the Showdown!" In that moment, his aggressive demeanor abated and he sighed, followed by a soft groan of irritation, "I can't, Lucas....I don't want the others to get scared of me, did you see their reaction today? If they see me in THAT form...I'm only going to seem like a demon. I don't want that....So....I'm not fighting in the Showdown this time..." "But Captain...If Klaus fights....We'll be no match....His God ability....it's terrifying." "Yeah....I know, but we should find someone to take my place....I'm sure there's someone who's strong and willing to take Klaus down." "Maybe one of the lieutenants can!" "I don't know.....I don't think your Abilities will fair well against him....." "Don't worry Captain....I'm sure we can find someone." "Look into it for me Lucas.....but I really need to be alone right now." "You know I'm not leaving you, even if you beg me." They both started giggling and sat against the cabin walls.
