(Kaaru woke up, brushes his teeth, took his bath and wears his uniform and his shoe. He went to the breakfast table to take his breakfast and saw Junri)
KAARU: Good morning.
JUNRI: Oh morning Kaaru. Hope you slept well?
KAARU: Yeah I do
JUNRI: That's good. Make you eat up before going to school on time.
(Kaaru left the house and Yuuto saw him as he was surprised. Suddenly a car moving slowly was seen following him as Yuuto was surprised and wore his hood. A man came out of the car as he pointed a gun towards him. The noise of the gun was heard as birds flew into the air. Kaaru turns back surprisedly to see Yuuto whom protected him as he uses a dustbin cover. Kaaru looks at the man as he looks at him back and he left. He zoom off his car)
KAARU: What just happened. He left after seeing my face.
YUUTO: (Surprised) That's because he's tries to capture it.
KAARU: And what will happened after that?
YUUTO: They will be able to locate you and find the people you hang out with. Those guys are sensitive if you don't know.
KAARU: What!... And who are they?
YUUTO: I don't want to explain much. We better start going to school. (They started walking)
KAARU: You know since the day we met, we haven't tell each others our names. So I'm Kaaru.
YUUTO: Yuuto.
KAARU: Me too (Thinking he was saying "You too")
YUUTO: My name is Yuuto!
KAARU: Okay. You live around here?
YUUTO: No. My house is far from here. I come here to buy whatever I want since this area has a whole lot of things I need.
KAARU: Oh. That's true. (Saw his house) It's this your house?
YUUTO: You better get going. I haven't taken a shower.
KAARU: (Reacted) No wonder when you protected me from my back you smelt like crap.
YUUTO: Shut up you dumbass.
KAARU: I told you before I'm not a dumbass.
(Yuuto became very angry and Kaaru sees him and ran away. He cool his temper and went inside his house)
(At school, Kaaru glanced at the book Eito was marking and he was done)
EITO: Not bad. Eighty nine over hundred.
KAARU: Eighty nine! And you think it's not bad.
EITO: Yeah. You have improved on getting the highest score.
KAARU: And it's total nonsense. I can't get the that in a real exam.
EITO: Why? Be happy of what you get. You can't study to the range that you will get hundred.
KAARU: (Sighed) I guess so. But... Give me another one.
EITO: If you insist.
KAARU: (Thought) I want to pass Eito no matter what.
(Eito gives him where he is going answer the questions and he starts doing it. Later, Kaaru kept his books on his locker as he was tired)
KAARU: Man, so exhausted over that test I did. (He saw Yuuto and a boy walking together. The boy name is Hisaki) Hey Yuuto
YUUTO: Oh shit.
HISAKI: You know who is that guy?
YUUTO: Someone who gives me boredom.
HISAKI: You always feel bored. Come on let be nice to him. (They met Kaaru) Hey there.
KAARU: Hey. Are you Yuuto's friend?
HISAKI: Cousin.
KAARU: (Astonished) What.
HISAKI: Yeah.
KAARU: I didn't know you have a cousin, Yuuto.
YUUTO: Yeah that's because you shouldn't know.
(Hisaki uses his elbow to hit Yuuto's arm)
HISAKI: Well anyway, my name's Hisaki.
KAARU: Kaaru.
["Looks like I'm starting to have lots of friends a little. On my first day you know what happened__, yes I was bullied after I met my childhood friend, Chen Naruo. I thought everyone will like me but it was different. Walking alone in the midst of so many people. But I'm still happy seeing the little friends I have, Hiro Shinjiro, Eito Satoshi, Hisaki, and this guy who acts like he doesn't care Yuuto Naozumi"]
(After school, Kaaru was on his way home. So he saw a shop named "Ippei Clothing Shop". He glanced at him and remembered what Hiro said to him "You will need a mask to cover your identity")
KAARU: Oh yeah. That's true (He went inside) Hello (Pause) Anybody here
IPPEI: (Came out from a door) Oh sorry for keeping you waiting. I was busy sewing some new outfits.
KAARU: I just came.
IPPEI: Anyway. Welcome to Ippei Clothing Shop. How can I help you?
KAARU: I would like to buy a mask.
IPPEI: A mask. Hmm
KAARU: Yeah. You sell mask, right?
IPPEI: Yes I do. But how can I trust you (Glanced at him briefly and Kaaru gulped) Well you have come to the right place. (As he smiled)
KAARU: Huh.
IPPEI: Look around.
KAARU: So your name is Ippei?
IPPEI: Yes. (As he smiles)
(Kaaru looks around and saw different kinds of masks. He pause for a while after seeing one so good. The mask has an X on the right and an O on the right with a smiley teeth shown)
KAARU: How about this one?
IPPEI: You like it?
KAARU: How much is it?
IPPEI: Three thousand but you can give me One thousand.
KAARU: Okay. Thanks (He gives him the money and he took the mask)
IPPEI: Make sure you come here to buy more.
KAARU: (Thought) He's nice. But kind of weird, why would someone leave his door open and goes it a room to sew. (Looks at the mask) This one look rare.
(At Kaaru's room, he operates his computer browsing for new stuffs. He feels sleepy as he yawns. He shut down his computer and went to bed. He suddenly then hears a noise from a window as he was surprised. He checks it and saw the person, it was Yuuto)
YUUTO: Hey Kaaru.
KAARU: Yuuto. What are you doing here?
YUUTO: There is something I'll like to tell you (As he squats on the windowsill)
KAARU: All of a sudden, after all this time, it's now in the night. Why didn't you call me instead and how do you know this is where I live?
YUUTO: Oh crap, what the hell is wrong with you?
KAARU: Damn what was that for?
YUUTO: You didn't even finished what I was about to tell you.
KAARU: Alright... Go on.
YUUTO: The week is about to end.
KAARU: (Surprised) I know when it's about to end. You think I don't know. All my whole life I was thinking of making my new plans for next week...
YUUTO: You will soon be manipulated by your power.
KAARU: What (And remembered what Hiro said "Been manipulated happens after a week") Man, And I didn't take all those words seriously from Hiro.
YUUTO: Maybe you didn't even understand.
KAARU: Of course. I understand.
YUUTO: Having something so difficult to understand must have made you easily forget.
KAARU: I said I understand.
YUUTO: (Came inside) It's this your room?
KAARU: No.
YUUTO: You can be crazy sometimes. Not knowing how you manage to have good grades (He saw his calendar) New week is approaching. Let's see if you can manage to have those powers back.
KAARU: Yeah. But who's gonna...
(They suddenly heard a footsteps coming upstairs and Kaaru was surprised) Quick that's my aunty (In a whisper tone)
YUUTO: (Jumps down from the window) Ouch! That hurt! (Kaaru shut the window as Junri opened up)
(Junri saw him already sleeping as she was surprised l and she shuts the door slowly and she left)
(Kaaru woke up and sighed in relief and Yuuto climbs up)
KAARU: (Astonished) How do you...
YUUTO: Seriously you didn't lock your door.
KAARU: Hey, was I supposed to know that she will come.
YUUTO: Let's go.
KAARU: Go where?
YUUTO: You asked a lot of questions I said let's go.
(Kaaru locks the door, took his mask and follows Yuuto. They begin to walk)
KAARU: Like I said earlier before my aunty came, who's gonna train me?
YUUTO: Two things, One, can't tell and two, you don't need to know.
KAARU: I thought you were only hot-headed but now I can see that you are weird. You came to my house and now you are asking me to follow you.
YUUTO: Can I get this straight, why don't you shut up for once. (There was a long pause)
KAARU: Yuuto, are we like becoming friends?
YUUTO: What.
KAARU: Like all you can do for me is saving my life except the punch you welcomed me on my first day. You save me from those two men, save me from a gunshot and now you save me from becoming evil.
YUUTO: I'm only doing these so that you don't mess things up. And also...
KAARU: Also what?
YUUTO: We are not friends!
KAARU: Okay.
YUUTO: Hey let me show you something
(Yuuto climbs a fire escape, those stairs or ladders you see in an apartment buildings. Kaaru looks at him as he was surprised. He climbs up but he was slow not knowing as he goes up like a monkey. Yuuto made it to the top and looks at Kaaru downwards)
KAARU: How can you do that?
YUUTO: Movies. Don't you watch one?
KAARU: Yeah I do but not this kind of stunts.
YUUTO: it's not a stunt. That's climbing.
KAARU: But you were so cool, you swing your body, you jump up and down like a monkey...
YUUTO: Kaaru.
KAARU: ... like this is insane. We have a stuntman in this city...
YUUTO: Kaaru! It's the work of your mania
KAARU: Huh.
YUUTO: The mania enables you to work on your movement freely. They can be crazy but you have to be careful when using it.
KAARU: Okay.
YUUTO: (Thought) I know he's going to take a while.
(He tries climbing up and started to jump, he was surprised that he couldn't do it but all of a sudden missed a step and fell. Yuuto sighed and Kaaru climbed up back again. This time he didn't missed the power helped him to move up faster and he finally made it to the apex of the building. Kaaru gasped continuously as he touches his chest)
KAARU: That... Was awesome
YUUTO: Well not as awesome as this (Yuuto runs with speed and Kaaru was astonished. He sees that there is no road for him to pass)
KAARU: Yuuto wait. You are gonna fall.
(Yuuto runs with all might and to Kaaru's surprise, he jumped over and move to the next building)
YUUTO: Come on dumbass you can do it! (He continues to run leaving him)
KAARU: Wait you can't leave me! (He said as Kaaru breathes in and out to overcome his fear and begins to run. He suddenly jumped up and he was surprised, he moved to the next building. He does this repeatedly till he meets Yuuto)
YUUTO: Woah. So fast.
KAARU: Yeah I know. Watch this (He runs faster jumping and running on wall displaying his stunts and Yuuto was shocked. He runs as he wears his mask and jumps the next building, shouting) Woo hoo!!!
