Chapter 2 - BLACK AND WHITE

{February 7th, Beijing China}

A girl was walking through the streets, when she felt the need to rest, she went to a restaurant, she sat waiting for the waitress from her seat.

Waitress: "这是菜, 您想错过什么吗?"

(Translate: here's the menu, what would you like miss?)

Girl: "请来馄饨汤"

(Translate: wor wonton soup, please..)

Waitress: "这就是全部?"

(Translate: Is that all?)

Girl: "还有一杯水..."

(Translate: a glass of water too...)

Waitress: "至少需要20分鐘錯過,感謝您選擇我們餐廳!"

(Translate: It will take at least 20 minutes miss, thank you for choosing our RESTAURANT! )

Girl: "謝謝..."

(Translate: thank you too....)

The waitress scurries away, clearly flustered by the sudden influx of activity in the restaurant. The atmosphere becomes unusually tense as five men dressed in black enter and approach the girl.

One of the men, noticeably younger than the others, politely addresses her.

Young Man: "Excuse me, miss."

The girl turns to look at him, her expression blank and her eyes devoid of emotion.

Girl: "What is it..."

Young Man: "May I ask if you are Nashimi Rain?"

Nashimi: "I am..."

The ambiance in the restaurant instantly shifts from calm and quiet to one of pressure and seriousness.

Young Man: "I see... Oh, sorry for my lack of manners... My name is Toku Kamaki."

Toku Kamaki, the enigmatic young man, exudes an aura of intrigue that immediately puts Nashimi on edge as they converse. Dressed entirely in black, his tailored suit appears custom-made, and he wears white gloves with peculiar geometric patterns. Two floating scabbards hover beside him, each adorned with red lines resembling lightning.

He extends his hand towards her, expecting her to reciprocate, but Nashimi remains unaffected by his theatrics.

"Well, as you can see, we wouldn't want to cause a commotion in this restaurant... so let's continue this outside," Toku suggests.

"Of course..." Nashimi replies.

She follows the men outside, veering away from the crowded areas to a more secluded location.

Toku: "You know, I could already have had your pretty face kissing the floor back in that restaurant... you're just lucky you're cute."

A sly smile creeps onto his face, clearly underestimating her.

Nashimi: "There's no need to flatter me... let's settle this quickly..."

She levitates three meters above the ground, positioned in front of the four men.

Suddenly, everything within a 20-kilometer radius undergoes a drastic shift, as colors fade into monotone shades, surprising all the men except for Kamaki.

Toku: Do you really think all this is necessary? Miss Ebony...

Nashimi: "Absolutely, without a doubt...

I THINK YOU MIGHT ACTUALLY LAST..."

Toku: "THEN BE MY GUEST!!"

To be continued....
