His eyes were heavy as his headache boomed. He reached up and rubbed his head feeling somewhat different. He slowly sits up and looks around. People cowering around as he's confused. He looks at his hands. His knuckles covered in dry blood as he slowly rises to stand. People cowering and rushing away from him as he takes a step forward. Almost loosing his balance as he takes another step. Turning to look at one of the people looking at him.
"What are you looking at?" He was shocked having spoke a language he seemingly never heard before. But was confused as he still remembers and speaks it fluently like a native language. His voice was deep and grungy as his throat was brash. Slowly walking over and leaning on the door frame. Stumbling in and sitting at the bar on a stool.
"Give me a small glass of water…" The bartender nods as he coughs a bit. Shocked when someone brave enough sits beside him.
"They finally got ya, ay?... It's about time Yuma…" Yuma looks at the man recognizing Yuma as his name.
"And who are you?" The man laughs a bit.
"Kuza… Kuza Akabane… and you my friend… are Yuma… although… I never got your last name before they erased your memory…" Yuma is slightly shocked and turning to look at Kuza.
"Erased… my memory?... So what now… You gonna tell me you wanna travel the World or something… Memory wiping doesn't exist… it's impossible…" Kuza sighs.
"Yeah, because your Memory was erased is why you don't believe it exists you idiot… And for your reference… I do wanna travel the World!" Yuma bursts into laughter as he grabs his glass of water. Drinking it to stop himself from choking.
"Yeah right!... What World would you travel exactly?... The stupid ruler of this island would stop you before you even got a chance… and for all we know, this little island Nation here… could be all that's out there… it could just be ocean around the entire globe for all we know!" Kuza is shocked.
"After I heard on the news about a massive sea spanning for infinity… I've wanted to connect every single island together!... Under one massive alliance!... I know I can do it, we just have to make it to heavens gate!" Yuma stands up slamming his fist on the table.
"You have fun with your day dreamin'… But one day… You'll come to realize that this world… ain't nothing but a bunch of stragglers fighting to prove themselves in a society where no body gives a thought… Trust me… Reality strikes hardest when you're at your weakest" Yuma starts to walk out as Kuza stands up.
"I know you wanna do something with your life Yuma!... Don't set your dreams aside because of some… Restriction!... The strongest resistance comes just before something great!... you know that!... So tell me… what's your goal!?" There's a silence as Yuma stops walking.
"If that's the case… how do you say we persevere through something we can't even see?" Kuza is slightly shocked before smiling.
"We take down the King" Yuma looses his smile. Walking out of the shop.
"Have fun with that… Kuza"
Yuma walks down the street as blood drips from his fists, Staggering into a shop. Turning the corner and stumbling into the bathroom. His eyes widening as he looks at himself in the mirror. His eyes were a light purple and he had pale skin. His pink hair was cut short with a small horn over his eyes. He looked at his mouth as his eyes blurred. Normal teeth looked back at him as he smirked. He shook his head as he walked out of the bathroom. A girl walking over to him and sitting him down.
"What are you-" The girl doesn't respond and touches his shoulder. A green glow forms around him as his injuries slowly heal.
"You… Healed me…!?" She shushes him and whispers.
"My Uitsoten Mantra allows me to heal others… but keep a secret... Now go" Yuma quickly nods and walks away. The girl bouncing several coins in her hands that she swiped from his pockets.
Several suspicious people sit at a table. Looking at each other.
"I heard that Idiot Yuma was at it again?" The one at the end of the table nods.
"Yes… He may not realize it yet… But that boy isn't normal… He's everything but… Pink hair… horns… Pointy ears?... What exactly is he?" There was silence as one takes a deep breath.
"Whatever he is, he has to be taken care of before he makes it to Heavens Gate-" Another of the group interrupts.
"IF he makes it to the gate… remember… he's only a Cadet… He's only 15… So don't put too much pressure on him… We can't kill a 15 year old unless we want-" The King interrupts the meeting.
"If this meeting is about the Yuma boy… I don't care what the World government says… Execute him before he has the chance to leave this island" The King stares at them with seemingly no emotions. The meeting is dismissed as a bulletin board comes into view. A paper slapped right in the middle with Yuma's picture on it. A Ѥ150 Enni bounty Dead only poster.
